Chapter 324


    Without warning, Niall barged into the office, eliciting a frown from Pierre. “Didn’t I tell you to knock


    beforeing in? Your attitude has ckened as ofte!”


    “My apologies, President Fowler, but this… this is big news! This is definitely huge!” Niall was so


    shocked that he was stuttering. “Look at this!”


    He handed the tablet he was holding to Pierre, which disyed photos of Meredith and Joaquin,


    with Joaquin’s face being blurred out. Frowning, Pierre thought, Did someone catch Meredith and


    Joaquin together when they were at the yground yesterday?


    “I-I’m sorry, President Fowler! I only saw this in the morning. I was too tiredst night, and the


    photos were posted after midnight, so I—” As Pierre’s secretary, Niall was used to dealing with all


    sorts of gossip regarding Pierre. Normally, he would contact the person who started such rumors to


    delete the post they made within moments.


    Coincidentally, however, he slept earlyst night, and because the post was made after midnight, he


    didn’t see the post until this morning. Despite being posted after midnight, the post managed to stir


    up a ruckus overnight when a bunch of night owls saw the post. Therefore, it became the trending


    topic by the following morning.

    At that moment, Meredith rushed into the office in a hurry. “Pierre, this is bad!” Both Niall and Pierre


    turned to look at Meredith, who didn’t have her makeup on, while her hair was tousled. It was


    obvious that she had yet to even wash up after getting out of bed.


    “Someone took photos of Jojo and me.” Meredith was looking at him in distress. “I’m sorry, Pierre. I


    went for another shooting sessionst night after dropping Jojo off. I fell asleep as soon as I got


    home due to howte it was, only to notice btedly that there were photos of Jojo and me when I


    woke up this morning...”


    Meredith bit hard on her lip that they whitened. “I already realized that there was a high possibility


    that we might get photographed when Jojo suggested that we go to the yground. I couldn’t do


    anything since he wanted to go there, so I figured I would say that he’s my rtive’s child if people


    recognized me. And I thought we wouldn’t be followed by paparazzi.” With a look of chagrin on her


    face, she said, “I’m sorry; it’s all my fault. What should we do now?”


    Unlike both Niall and Meredith, who were panicking, Pierre seemedposed. It was already too


    late to do anything even if Meredith asked. Since the post on Twitter wasn’t removed early on,


    deleting it after the situation brewed was pointless, as it would only confirm the public’s suspicion.


    After Pierre gave Niall a signal, thetter caught on and left the office. Soon, Meredith and him were


    the sole upants in the room.


    Sobbing, Meredith apologized, “Pierre, I’m sorry. I never expected things to spiral out of control.


    Should I hold a press conference to clear things up?”


    However, neither was that a viable option. The more she put emphasis on any such scandals, the


    more her fans would think it was real, especially things rting to romance and children.


    “Do you remember what happened during the night when we first had sex?” Pierre’s question hit her


    like a bomb that blew up in her face.


    She was still pretending to be troubled by the situation in order to convince Pierre of her innocence,


    so she was overwhelmed when he asked her that. “W-Why do you ask?”
