I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

Terrence Sterling couldn’t care less about Joy Chaucer’s birthday party.

To him, Joy Chaucer was just a stranger.

His task today was to accompany Meredith on her birthday.

Terrence Sterling brought Meredith in front of the Buddha statue, and the two of them knelt down to pay their respects and say their prayers inwardly.

Meredith peeked with one eye open and saw Terrence Sterling’s deep devotion, as if it wasn’t his first time there.

She never expected that he was actually a believer.

Seeing his sincerity, Meredith also paid her respects devoutly.

It was her first time in a place like a temple. She was busy with her daily life, usually just muttering a prayer for blessings, without truly having such leisure to pay any religious visit.

Nevertheless, Terrence Sterling took her around the temple, had a meal there, and even visited the mountain behind the temple, admiring the scenery.

After all this, it was almost dark.

Meredith felt a little puzzled in her heart. It was her birthday today, and Terrence Sterling was just taking her around a temple and climbing a mountain?

It would have been more practical to take her out for some good food.

Just as she was thinking this, she heard his clear and crisp voice: “We’ll go down the mountain in a bit and take you to eat something delicious.”Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Meredith looked at him in surprise, “Terrence Sterling, are you reading my mind? How do you know what I want?”

“You think I can’t see through your little thoughts?” Terrence Sterling looked at her with indulgence and said, “Come on, let’s go down the mountain; cheese hot pot is calling for you.”

“Terrence Sterling, I really love you,” Meredith blurted out in a fit of happiness, hugging Terrence Sterling’s arm for the first time.

And it was under the lure of cheese hotpot.

Terrence Sterling was amused, but those words made him feel great. Because of their craziness last night, Terrence Sterling clearly felt that Meredith’s heart was drawing closer to his.

Indeed, conquering a woman happens the fastest in bed. When a woman’s body belongs to someone, her heart gradually follows suit.

On the way back, Terrence Sterling asked her, “What did you pray for in the temple today?”

Meredith instinctively said, “Of course, I asked for wealth. I rarely come to a temple, so I must ask for blessings to make a fortune, right?”

Meredith really prayed for wealth in front of every statue.

Terrence Sterling chuckled, “Then hold on to me, that’s more practical than praying to Buddha.”

Meredith reacted, “Right, you’re the God of Wealth.”

Meredith asked, “What did you pray for?”

Terrence Sterling said, “If I say it, it won’t come true.”

Meredith said, “…”

“You just asked me, and I said it, then it won’t come true, and I won’t be able to make a fortune,” Terrence Sterling patted his thigh, “Don’t worry, hold on to me tightly.”

Meredith laughed. She leaned on his shoulder and said with a contented heart, “It’s quite good to be in a relationship with the boss. There are so many benefits.”

She closed her eyes, feeling a wave of happiness all over her body.

After descending the mountain, they went straight to a cheese hot pot restaurant.

Terrence Sterling had made a reservation earlier, and the restaurant owner had reserved a private room for them.

Meredith could enjoy the cheese hot pot freely.

This time, Meredith didn’t ask for a spicy one. Terrence Sterling wasn’t too fond of spicy food, and since he always thought for her, she naturally remembered his preferences.

Terrence Sterling enjoyed watching Meredith eat. When he watched her eat, he felt that the world was beautiful and the troubles disappeared.

As the dishes arrived, Meredith began to eat, saying, “I’ll start first.”

Just as she was about to start, a server pushed a trolley in. Meredith looked at Terrence Sterling and asked, “Did we order more dishes?”

Terrence Sterling said, “I ordered this.”

Meredith was curious, “It looks quite unique, with a cover on top.”

The server brought the dish, and Terrence Sterling personally lifted the cover to reveal a four-leaf clover necklace inside.

Seeing the necklace in the dish, Meredith instantly understood; this was the surprise prepared by Terrence Sterling for her.

Meredith was deeply moved. She stood up, took the necklace, and put it on herself. “Meredith, happy birthday. I hope I can celebrate your birthday with you every year from now on,” Terrence Sterling said.

Meredith’s eyes filled with warmth. “Terrence Sterling, why are you so good to me?”

In just a few days, she felt like the happiest person in the world.

What was just so good about her that allowed Terrence Sterling to dote on her like this?

“You are my woman, so of course I’ll cherish you,” he said. “Meredith, you deserve it.”
