I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

Their daughter needed her mother desperately. At this age, which child wasn’t being pampered in their parents’ arms? Little Lucky, though her eyes were closed, wasn’t asleep. She missed her mother and felt her presence in her heart.

Terrence didn’t disturb them and turned to go downstairs. The news of Mrs. Sterling’s return quickly reached John. He initially thought the city-wide advertisements were just Terrence’s way of expressing his longing, but he was surprised to find she had actually returned.Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

As a police officer, John immediately called Terrence to confirm the news. Selene was also anxious about this matter and listened in. When it was confirmed that she had indeed returned, John was quite shocked. After hanging up, he asked Selene, “Do you want to go to Ravenwood and see her? Today is your last day off.”

Selene would have to return to prison early the next morning. “It’s enough to know she’s alive; there’s no need to see her,” Selene said. “I’ll cook a couple of dishes tonight; Mom and Dad haven’t tasted my cooking yet.”

“Alright, I’ll help you,” John replied. He had taken a long vacation, including making up for previous leaves. The siblings went into the kitchen to prepare dinner.

John said, “It’s still unbelievable when I think about it-typhoon, deep sea, yet Meredith came back alive.”

Selene replied, “The world is full of wonders.”

“Sarah, perform well when you go back this time. In about six months, I’ll work on getting you out so you can regain your freedom,” John said with determination.

“Anywhere is the same for me,” Selene said. “It doesn’t make much difference to me; you don’t need to plan for me.”

Selene knew very well that for John to plan for her, he might have to gamble with his own future.

“It’s not the same. I want you to stand under the sun,” John said lovingly as he looked at Selene. “Mom and Dad were so happy when you came back; I hope our family stays like this.”

“John, Mom and Dad want grandchildren. When are you going to find a girlfriend?” Selene smiled slightly, a rare sight that lifted John’s spirits.

John knew Selene’s heart was tied up with Hya and Meredith; now that Meredith was back, Selene was happy.

John said, “I was busy with work before and had no time. Now that I’m on a long vacation, Mom has introduced me to several girls. I’m still getting to know them. I’m not romantic; girls don’t like that. My job scares many girls away too.”

As she beat eggs, Selene said, “You just haven’t met the right person yet.”

“What about you?” John leaned on the kitchen counter and asked, “You’ve been avoiding Harvey because of Elsa?”

John found it troubling that both his sisters were involved with the same man. Elsa liked Harvey; Harvey liked Selene. As their brother, John didn’t know what to say.

“No,” Selene replied. “He and I aren’t suitable.”

Seeing that Selene didn’t want to talk about it, John didn’t bring up how she had lost sleep over Harvey on her first night back.

As a police officer, John was good at reading people. He didn’t know exactly why Selene felt this way and didn’t press her for details.

While they were cooking, Elsa came home. Hearing laughter from the kitchen, she walked over and saw Selene and John cooking together. She remarked sarcastically, “Sarah has been back for so many days and is cooking for the first time tonight-what a treat! But why did you decide to cook today? It feels like a farewell dinner.”

Elsa knew very well that Selene would return to prison tomorrow and felt happy about it. Once Selene left, who knew when she’d be back again-perhaps only after serving her full sentence.

John frowned. “Elsa, go do your own thing and call Mom and Dad to ask when they’ll be home.”

“Okay,” Elsa replied curtly and gave Selene a cold look before leaving.

Selene ignored her from start to finish.
