Task NO.1 How to Pursue Miss CEO novel Chapter 177

Chapter 177 We’re Dating

“By the way, isn’t Selena Yard—the president of JNS Corporation—your half-sister?” Helen looked at Meredith tentatively. “Mrs. Fowler, I’m not at liberty to say anything about her.”

However, Helen seemed to be able to see through Meredith. “Meredith, the Fowler Family has long since regarded you as the mistress of the family throughout the past few years. What could still be off-limits between us? Just tell me. It’s okay, for I know my limits.”

After a moment’s hesitation, Meredith answered, “Mrs. Fowler, this sister of mine… Well, it’s a long story. Her mother passed away when she was young, and my mother wasn’t in the position to really discipline her since she was merely a stepmother, so she’d always been running wild at home.

She had a boyfriend in her teenage years, and her entire personal life is a mess. For some inexplicable reason, she has always despised me and my sister, so she’s perturbed when we’re doing well. You saw what happened during my sister’s wedding with Finneas Lake. In reality, the truth wasn’t as she claimed.

It was her who fooled around outside and got pregnant with some man, so Finneas dumped her, but she pushed all the blame on my sister. Nonetheless, we’re family, so we didn’t want to make a huge fuss out of it.”

Helen naturally knew that Meredith’s words contained falsehoods, but it would also be bad for her if Selena truly got together with Pierre, so she had to stand with Meredith. “Don’t worry, Meredith. I’ll definitely keep a close eye on Jojo and Jamie. As for Selena and Pierre, you know that I can’t say anything since I’m only his stepmother. Pierre is still young, so perhaps he’s only sowing his wild oats?”

Then, she took Meredith’s hand. “Actually, relationships are like flying a kite. The more you pull it closer to you, the farther it flies. However, when you let go, it’ll draw closer to you instead. Most importantly, the string must be in your hands.”
