Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 2566

"You wouldn't look down on me because of this?" Eevonne asked in disbelief.

Kingston laughed incredibly brightly." You're truly a very cute and silly girl. Of course, I won't look down on you. On the contrary, I felt you're quite witty."

Eevonne was speechless. It was after a long while that she asked, "Why is it that you won't look down on me?"

Kingston gave it a thought. "Many years ago, I met a girl, and her life at that time was even tougher than yours. At that time, she even had a child with her. When she was looking for a job, she kept getting rejected because she did not have the academic qualifications. In the end, she was already at her wit’s end, so she faked her academic qualifications. Since then, she had been working the same job until today. She is already the best of the best in the industry, but she still didn't have a college degree."

"R-Really?" Eevonne asked.

Kingston nodded. "Of course, it's real"

"In fact, a person’s academic qualifications don't mean anything. The most important thing is that this person is willing to work hard and produce results. That's the most important thing. What do you think?" he said to her with an encouraging tone.

Eevonne blushed and smiled. "However, I don't think I'm as successful as your friend.

Kingston was confused. "How so?" "I was a middle school graduate, but I made a fake diploma and told others I was a college graduate. This lie was a little too exaggerated. I was recruited, but not long after I got into the company, I was found out. Immediately after, everyone in the company looked at me differently. Once they got behind my back, they would gossip about me. In the end, they didn't even try to do it behind my back anymore. Many of the colleagues in the company find fault with me. I knew I was wrong, so I ...didn't dare to resist. I originally thought that my boss would . fire me once he learned about this matter. However, I never expected that my boss would specifically call for a company-wide meeting because of my matter."

Kingston looked at her in surprise. "It's not that big of a deal, but he called for a company-wide meeting? Was that necessary? He should have just reprimanded you. At worst, fire you! He actually called for a company-wide meeting?"

"No, it’s not like that." Eevonne laughed in a relaxed manner. "That was actually a very small company. There were only a total of twenty staff in the office. There were only a little more than a hundred people working in the space outside the office. With all the people in the factory combined, there was only one hundred and fifty staff working there. It’s not considered big."

"Oh. Even if the factory didn't have many people, he can’t have a company-wide meeting to fire you. You didn't steal the company's assets and whatnot, and you didn't destroy the company’s properties. You just made a fake diploma. That's all. The worst case should just be getting fired!"

When she heard Kingston saying that, Eevonne smiled miserably. "If it was just getting fired, then that may be cutting short the pain I would be suffering.

However, my boss did not fire me in public at that time."

After taking a pause, she said gloomily, "At that time, my boss revealed the matter of me faking a diploma to all of the staff, and he also reprimanded me for my bad behavior. I originally wanted to just leave. However, my boss said something at that time. He said that he pitied me, so he would be giving me a chance to turn over a new leaf. He asked me to reflect on my actions once in front of the entire staff. That was nothing. Since then, my boss would keep bringing up my matter every now and then. Also, every time he brought it up, he would ask if I had turned over a new leaf so that I would remember my shame at all times. Kingston, do you know what that feels like? To use a very civilized phrase to describe it, he was simply putting me in my own mental prison. He wanted me to remember my shame at all times. Not only that, but he even wanted me to be grateful to him for training me and giving me an opportunity."
