I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

Selene arrived at Spencer’s workplace. Today, Spencer hadn’t gone out to sea yet; he was repairing the boat while his companions were mending the nets. Selene and Harvey boarded the boat. Seeing strangers, Spencer put down what he was doing and asked, “Who are you looking for?”

“Are you Spencer?” Selene asked. “We’re friends of Audrey. We haven’t been able to contact her for a long time. We’re here to find her. You’re her father, right? Where is Audrey?”This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

Harvey admired Selene’s boldness; she dared to pose as anything. This time, she was pretending to be Audrey’s friend.

Hearing this, Spencer became very cautious. He knew his daughter’s friends well enough. He waved them off, saying, “You’ve got the wrong person.”

Spencer didn’t admit it. Selene was just testing him, and his response gave him away immediately. If Spencer didn’t dare to admit it, then there was definitely a problem.

Harvey said, “Uncle, we really are Audrey’s friends. She told us her dad is named Spencer and works here fishing. We’re very worried about her; we haven’t seen her in over a year! She has a heart condition. We want to know if her heart surgery was successful and how she’s doing now.”

Hearing this information, Spencer’s face changed dramatically. Worried that outsiders might hear, he said to them, “Let’s talk somewhere else.”

Spencer got off the boat, and Selene and Harvey followed him to a secluded spot.

Spencer asked, “Who exactly are you? I’ve never heard my daughter mention any friends.”

Harvey replied, “Mr. Flack, my name is Harvey, and this is my girlfriend Selene. We are indeed Audrey’s friends and have known her for a long time. We went away for work and only returned this year, so we wanted to check on Audrey but couldn’t reach her. That’s why we’re here.”

The lie didn’t need to be perfect; they just needed to make Spencer uneasy enough to reveal something.

Spencer didn’t believe them and said, “Audrey went out of town for work; she’s not home.”

“Uncle, is she really not home or is it inconvenient for us to see her?” Selene’s eyes were sharp. “Audrey isn’t in good health; how could you let her go out for work? She had heart surgery last year and is still recovering. You wouldn’t let her go out unless something went wrong with the surgery.”

Selene intentionally said this last part.

“The surgery didn’t fail; my daughter is fine,” Spencer said impatiently. “Anyway, she’s not home. If you want to find someone, look elsewhere.”

“You’re afraid of letting us see Audrey because she’s not the same Audrey anymore!” Selene lost her patience too. If it were up to her old temper, she would have used forceful means to get the truth from Spencer.

Spencer felt guilty and said, “I don’t understand what you’re talking about! What do you mean my daughter isn’t my daughter anymore?”

“Then why did your daughter impersonate someone else?” Selene’s gaze was piercing. “Spencer, since we’re here, we’ll get to the bottom of this. Will you tell us the truth yourself or should I inform the Sterling family? They can investigate whether Audrey is Meredith or not; a simple DNA test will suffice.”

Selene had initially planned to investigate quietly but seeing Spencer evade their questions made her anxious about Meredith’s whereabouts, so she decided to confront him directly.

Spencer’s face turned pale under Selene’s intense demeanor; he couldn’t meet her eyes and looked away.

Selene and Harvey played good cop-bad cop; one spoke politely while the other was stern.

Harvey said, “Mr. Flack, my girlfriend has a quick temper; please bear with us! We just want to know where Meredith is and if she’s still alive. Why did Audrey become Meredith? Don’t worry; we won’t tell the Sterling family because we’re friends of Terrence. But your daughter should have told you about the Sterling family’s situation.”

Even if they weren’t sure before, Spencer’s reaction made Harvey realize something was definitely wrong.

The current Meredith was likely Audrey.

Spencer remained silent with a troubled expression.

Selene sternly said, “Your actions amount to fraud. If you don’t tell the truth, we’ll let the police handle it.”

Spencer panicked and blurted out, “My daughter isn’t a fraud; it was Meredith who made my daughter do it.”
