I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

One of the reporters provocatively said, “Mr. Hann, are you about to tick your own father out of your apartment? He is your father, the one who raised you up. How can you so ungratefully repay him?”

Justin angrily responded, “What’s your name? What company do you work for? What do you know to even accuse me like this? You know nothing, and what you said is just nonsense. Did you hear me? Turn off the camera!”

Justin was so infuriated that he lost his composure, not considering how his words might lead to further misunderstandings. Perhaps he realized it but couldn’t control his emotions.

Ignoring Justin’s warnings, the reporter turned to the camera, condemning Justin in front of the online audience, “As you can all see, this elderly gentleman came to us seeking help. He raised his son through hard times, only to be treated this way. This lawyer even went so far as to lay a hand on his own young niece…”

“Keep spouting all this nonsense and you will regret!” Justin, reaching his peak of anger, stepped forward and smashed the camera.

This action was captured on a smartphone by another member of the media crew and uploaded online. To outsiders, Justin’s behavior appeared as if he was guilt-ridden and lashing out in anger.

The noise within the law firm grew louder, and given Justin’s sensitive profession and the serious nature of the allegations, public outrage intensified. Mr. Thatcher continued to loudly berate Justin, making the situation even more heated. Mr. Chandler was alerted and came out of his office.

After quickly grasping the situation, Mr. Chandler instructed the security to escort the TV crew out and urged Justin to leave to prevent the situation from escalating further.

Once in a safe place, Mr. Chandler asked, “Justin, is any of this true? Where did this father of yours even come from? Aren’t you an orphan? And molest your niece? Could you really do something like that?”

Previously, Mr. Chandler had indeed been hard on Justin and rather stingy, but this time, he believed in Justin’s innocence, convinced that he couldn’t have committed such acts.

Justin’s mind was in chaos, filled with Mr. Thatcher’s accusations. “Justin, speak up,” urged Mr. Chandler urgently. “This is no small matter. If not handled properly, you could end up in prison, and our firm’s collaboration with Sterling Corporation could be ruined.”

“It’s not true,” Justin said, wiping his face in despair. “My father is slandering me. I never thought he would stoop to such lows. I’m his son; how could he do this?”Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

Justin was deeply hurt over just an apartment, shocked that Mr. Thatcher could devise such a malicious scheme.

“Where did this father come from? Aren’t you an orphan?” Mr. Chandler questioned.

“We only recently reconnected,” Justin said, closing his eyes briefly.

“Why would your father slander you, Justin? You’re a lawyer; you know the gravity of child molestation charges. Your license could be revoked, and if the case is severe, you could easily face over ten years in prison.”

Looking at Justin’s unfortunate situation, Mr. Chandler couldn’t help but remark, “What were you even thinking, finding yourself a father like this, and bringing all this trouble upon yourself? You must resolve this quickly, so it doesn’t impact the firm. Even if your backer is Terrence Sterling, I can’t protect you.”

Realizing the severity of the situation yet feeling powerless, Justin was at a loss for words. He did not do anything to Gemma and even if the police got involved, there would be nothing to find. Believing in the principle that the innocent will prove their innocence, he reassured Mr. Chandler, “Don’t worry, I’ll handle it.”

However, Justin had underestimated Mr. Thatcher’s callousness. Shortly after Justin left the firm, the internet was ablaze with the scandal. Words of Justin molesting his young niece spread, making headlines across major media outlets.

The reporters interviewed Mr. Thatcher, who, in front of the media, continued to slander Justin, accusing him not only of molestation but also of abuse and harsh treatment towards him and Mrs. Thatcher. He claimed they were denied any money for their medical expenses and kept saying Justin was heartless and ungrateful.

Mr. Thatcher even played a prepared recording of Gemma’s voice, manipulated by adults, where she said, “Uncle Ainsley hold me, touched me, and told me not to tell daddy…”

Gemma’s innocent voice became the most damaging blow, piercing Justin deeply.
