I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

Mrs. Wilkinson said, “Yes, Harvey came. He and your sister had agreed on this earlier. When your sister returns, how could Harvey not come to pick her up? Elsa, there’s nothing I can do to balance this out. After all, feelings are beyond our control.”

Mrs. Wilkinson held her daughter’s hand and comforted her softly, “There are many good men in the world. We owe you too much, Sarah. Elsa, please don’t be angry with Sarah. Can you let her have this? Whatever compensation you want, Mom will fulfill it.”

Hearing this, Elsa was unwilling in her heart. If it were before, she would have thrown a tantrum. But this time, Elsa was very clear that she couldn’t compete with Selene. The family sided with Selene, and Harvey’s heart was with Selene. What could she use to fight?

Elsa understandingly hugged Mrs. Wilkinson’s arm and acted coquettishly, “Mom, am I that unreasonable? If Sarah likes him, I’ll naturally let her have him. It doesn’t matter to me; we’re all family.”

Mrs. Wilkinson breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, “Elsa, you’ve really grown up.”

“Mom, let’s prepare a welcome party for Sarah and make it lively,” Elsa suggested. “We’ll give Sarah a surprise then.”

In her heart, Elsa darkly thought that she would definitely give Selene an unforgettable surprise, ruining Selene’s reputation in front of everyone and letting them know that Selene was an ex-convict.

…

Selene took a taxi to the Sterling family home. When she left, she no longer had Meredith’s current contact information and could only go to the house to find her.

Selene rang the doorbell. After a while, the maid opened the door. “Who are you looking for?”

“I’m looking for Meredith,” Selene said. “Please tell her that I’m Selene.”

“Wait a moment; I’ll ask the madam.” The maid didn’t let people in easily and went to inquire first.

The maid went upstairs where Audrey was playing with Little Lucky. She spent less and less time with Little Lucky now, deliberately reducing his dependence on her.

She thought that when she left one day, two-year-old Little Lucky wouldn’t be too sad. Such a young child would forget about her over time.

“Madam, there’s a woman named Selene outside looking for you,” the maid said at the door.

“Selene?” Audrey hesitated for a moment and said, “Then you stay with Rowan; I’ll go see.”

Handing Little Lucky over to the maid, Audrey went downstairs.

Selene was still standing outside the door when Audrey opened it and looked her up and down once. “Hello.”

“I’m Selene,” Selene said. “I used to be your bodyguard. I came to see you.”

Audrey had no memory of Selene.

“Please come in,” Audrey invited Selene inside and personally poured water for her. “Sorry, I don’t remember much from before.”

“Yes, I know.” Selene looked at Audrey’s face and reminisced about the times with Meredith. Sometimes she thought how great it would be if Hya were still alive since Meredith had miraculously survived.

Selene asked, “Is Terrence not home?”

Audrey nodded, “He went out.”

The two chatted sporadically; one didn’t remember the past while the other was naturally quiet and reserved, so there wasn’t much to talk about.NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

While they were chatting idly, there was a noise from the garage-Terrence had returned.

Selene noticed that Audrey’s demeanor remained calm; even when Terrence walked in from outside the courtyard, she neither got up nor greeted him.

Even ordinary couples would greet each other when one returned home.

From their behavior, Selene guessed there were issues between them.

Terrence saw Selene and was a bit surprised. “You’re here.”

Selene greeted him, “I just got out today and came to see Meredith.”

While Selene and Terrence talked, Audrey picked up her water cup without looking directly at Terrence. Living under the same roof felt like being strangers.

They had entered a cold war mode-Audrey’s unilateral cold war against Terrence.

Seeing Audrey’s attitude, Terrence hesitated to speak; his eyes dimmed but he didn’t show it in front of others. He said, “You chat with Meredith; I’ll go check on Rowan.”

With that said, Terrence went upstairs without any interaction with Audrey.

Selene glanced at Audrey again and couldn’t help but ask, “Did you two have a fight? You weren’t like this before.”

Audrey forced a smile and said, “As you said-that was before. People can’t stay unchanged forever; only he is still stuck in the past.”
