I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

Terrence Sterling shook his head, got up, and took a cold shower in the bathroom to suppress the desire burning inside him. Meanwhile, Fiona, who had been kicked out, felt unjust and anxious. She couldn’t figure out what had upset Terrence Sterling. She cautiously pondered his thoughts.

In the hallway, Fiona ran into Mrs. Wooten and politely approached her. “Mrs. Wooten, I can’t sleep. Can you talk to me?” It was late, but Mrs. Wooten, aware of Fiona’s relationship with Terrence Sterling, mustered up some energy and cheerfully replied, “Of course, Miss Woods.”

Fiona asked, “Does Mr. Sterling dislike lilies?” Mrs. Wooten confirmed, “Yes, Mr. Sterling hates lilies the most. Lilies are not allowed in the house, not even the scent. These words are especially forbidden.” Fiona realized her mistake and asked anxiously, “Why?” Mrs. Wooten shook her head, “I don’t know. Mr. Sterling just doesn’t like lilies.”

Realizing Terrence Sterling’s aversion, Fiona hurried back to her room, threw away all lily-scented bath products and perfumes, and took another shower. She regretted her actions, worried that because of tonight, Terrence Sterling might dislike her in the future.

Living in a luxurious villa, experiencing the opulent life of the wealthy, Fiona had only just begun. She didn’t want this dream to shatter because of tonight. Fiona secretly vowed to make Terrence Sterling fall in love with her.

Just then, Fiona’s phone rang. It was Meredith calling. Meredith had returned to their rental home, finding Fiona gone, and decided to call her. After a moment of hesitation, Fiona answered, “Meredith.”

“Fiona, where are you? It’s late, and you haven’t come back…” Before Meredith could finish speaking, Fiona interrupted, “I moved in with my boyfriend and won’t be coming back.”

Surprised, Meredith commented on the sudden decision and noticed that many of Fiona’s belongings were still in the house. Fiona replied coldly, “You can have whatever you need. If not, just throw them away. It’s late; I’m going to bed. We’ll talk another day.” The call ended.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

As she sat in the rental room, Meredith stared at the hung-up phone and the empty room, unable to comprehend the situation. She noticed Fiona’s reluctance to stay in touch, wondering how their close friendship had changed in just two days. Was Fiona afraid that Meredith would hinder her pursuit of happiness?

Fiona, who usually saved everything, had left almost everything behind, except for some basic clothes, during her move. It was like she had become a different person, leaving Meredith curious about the kind of boyfriend who had enchanted her. Could Fiona have been deceived into joining some pyramid scheme?

Meredith worried and decided to talk to Fiona the next day.

The next day, as the alarm went off, Meredith got up to prepare for work. As a secretary, she had to arrive at the office before eight. Hurrying out, she ran into the nosy neighbor lady Fiona met yesterday.

The neighbor lady, always chatty, stopped Meredith. “Meredith, you still live here? That Fiona has snagged a rich man, driving a million-dollar car with an assistant. She didn’t even lend you a hand.”

Surprised, Meredith asked, “How do you know?” The neighbor lady responded, “Fiona moved out yesterday, and I saw it all. Your friend was flaunting her new lifestyle, with bodyguards and assistants. She said she was moving in with her boyfriend to live a life of luxury. Just found herself a wealthy boyfriend, what’s the big deal?”

Did Fiona really find a wealthy boyfriend? Meredith was curious and determined to find out whether it was a genuine wealthy boyfriend or just a liar. So she asked, “Did you see the license plate number?” If it was true and good for Fiona, then Meredith would be relieved.
