<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Chapter 946 A Friend Of Meredith</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">News reached Cecilia quite rapidly, leaving her somewhat distressed.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">If she had the chance to meet with Aubree, she was certain she could persuade her to sign the contract. However, she couldn’t even secure a meeting now, no wonder Miranda had asked her toe.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">The receptionist advised, “You should go back, our boss doesn’t meet with just any staff. You, being from Rainsworth Group, should know this. Why did they send you here?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Perhaps we thought she would make an exception,” Cecilia responded.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">The receptionist, motivated by the money, informed Cecilia, Just so you know, it’s not that Ms. Hardy doesn’t value you. When Ms. Miranda from Rainsworth Group visited, even she struggled to get a moment with Ms. Hardy. The thing is, the few times Ms. Hardy did see her, that Miranda was thoroughly humiliated.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Upon hearing these words, Cecilia couldn’t help but feel a hint of amusement. So it turned out that Miranda had also been humiliated.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Thank you for sharing this with me.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">1 trust in your honesty, go home.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“No way, if I go back now without signing the contract, I’m sure to get fired,” Cecilia said, putting on at pitiful face.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">The receptionist was starting to feel sympathetic. “What should we do then? Do you know anyone in a higher position who could help?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">This statement served as a reminder to Cecilia.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After expressing her gratitude, Cecilia took a moment to look into Aubree’s connections. Once she did, a. very familiar name popped up.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Meredith!</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">She was Conrad’s stepmother from the kindergarten. This was because her husband had a child with someone else besides herself.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After Cecilia indirectly caused the mistress to leave Tud, it eventually led to an unexpected friendship with Meredith. The two even became close enough to add each other on WhatsApp.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Having realized that Meredith might know Aubree, Cecilia immediately sent a text to Meredith: Meredith, do you know Ms. Hardy from Hardy Group</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">It wasn’t long before a response came through.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Meredith: Do we know each other? Yes, we are friends. Why?</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Friend…</font></font>This text is ? N?velDrama/.Org.
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia hadn’t expected Meredith and Aubree to be friends, which would make things even easier to handle.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">She roughly informed Meredith about her situation here.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Meredith: Take it easy. Ceci. Fll have Aubreee down to see you right away. That’s just the way she is.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia: Thank you.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Meredith: There’s no need for formalities between us. If theres anything I can help with, just let me know.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After Meredith finished typing, she immediately called Aubree.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Over there, Aubree had just wrapped up her conversation with a client. Upon seeing a call from Meredith, she immediately stepped outside to answer.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Meredith, what’s up?”</font></font>
“Downstairs, there’s a secretary from Rainsworth Group, who’s a friend and benefactor of mine, named Cecilia. She has been waiting for you, aren’t you going to meet her?” Meredith got straight to the point.
Upon hearing that Cecilia was a friend of Meredith, Aubree didn’t inquire further. “All right,” she said, “I’ll go right now.”
In less than a few minutes, the receptionist, who initially thought it would be impossible for Cecilia to preet her boss, saw Aubree personallye down.
“Cecilia?”
Upon seeing that Cecilia was alone downstairs, Aubree inquired.
“It’s me, Ms. Hardy, hello.” Cecilia responded with an easy confidence, not at all like a mere employee.
“Oh dear, I’m sorry, I wasn’t aware you’re a friend of Meredith. Come, let’s go upstairs, we can chat there.” Aubree’s face was filled with warmth, not at all resembling the fierce tigress the employees perceived her to be.
The receptionist waspletely taken aback.
She felt a tinge of regret for treating Cecilia poorly and epting her mary gift just now.
She won’t report me to Ms. Hardy and get me fired, will she?
