I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

The moment Justin saw Mr. Thatcher, a bad premonition washed over him. Mr. Thatcher, however, did not wait to dismiss his client before he exploded in anger. Approaching Justin, he slapped him across the face and yelled, “You beast, you are worse than an animal! Gemma is so young, and yet you dared to lay your hands on her, your own niece!”

Caught off guard by the slap, Justin was utterly stunned by Mr. Thatcher’s words. Mr. Thatcher had brought reporters with him, creating quite a scene that drew the attention of all the colleagues around.

Confused, Justin asked, “Dad, what’s going on? What happened to Gemma?”

“And you dare to ask me, you animal?” Mr. Thatcher’s gaze was sharp as a knife, cutting through Justin’s longing for familial love.

Before Justin could grasp the situation, a reporter thrust a microphone in his face. “You are Mr. Justin Hann, correct? And Gemma Thatcher is your niece? She’s only five years old, and she’s your niece, and your father told us you molested the little girl. Is this true? How could you do such a thing to a child?”

“Molest?” Justin thought he had misheard, his face a mask of disbelief.

The office then buzzed with shocked colleagues, their looks turning from curiosity to disdain. As the cameras rolled and the live broadcast began, Mr. Thatcher tearfully accused in front of the cameras, “My Gemma, so young and so good, and this animal… It’s all my fault… I should have refused when this animal asked to share a room with Gemma! Only God can know how terrified my poor Gemma must be… She told me everything, you animal! She said you forced her to sleep with you, and you kissed her, and …”

Mr. Thatcher’s abrupt stop left room for ominous speculation. The implications of his words, vivid and damning, resonated with the reporters and the viewing audience, fueling public outrage.

As the situation escalated in no time, the reporter angrily confronted Justin, “Mr. Hann, how could you just bear to hurt such a young girl? How long has this been going on? Being a lawyer, you should know the law very well. This is a crime.”

“Nonsense!” Justin erupted, “Turn off the cameras! You have no right here without my permission!”Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Overwhelmed by frustration and betrayal, Justin confronted Mr. Thatcher, “Dad, why are you lying? Why bring reporters? Is it because you want that apartment, is that it? How could you do this to me, your own son?”

The accusations and the emotional turmoil were too much. Mr. Thatcher’s words were like knives, each word he said cutting deeper as he continued to denounce Justin in front of the growing crowd and the live broadcast.
