I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

Kendrick Gould was thrown out violently, crashing against a table leg and knocking over two chairs in the process. Writhing in pain on the floor, he screamed. Meredith finally saw who had intervened-it was Terrence Sterling.

When she saw Terrence, filled with fury, kick Kendrick viciously in the groin, Meredith was momentarily stunned. Terrence’s kick was forceful enough to incapacitate Kendrick, whose screams echoed through the floor as he clutched his lower body in agony.

Terrence then approached Meredith. From her reaction, he knew immediately what had happened. “It’s okay now, I’m here,” he assured her. In front of Meredith, the formerly menacing Terrence instantly softened. Harvey Fieldmouse, who had followed him in, was still trying to grasp the situation when Terrence asked him coldly, “Do you have those pills with you?”

Harvey, accustomed to such circles and always prepared, had brought antidotes for various drugs, having once been a victim himself. He quickly handed the antidote to Terrence, who then gave it to Meredith, gently reassuring her, “You’ll feel better soon.”

After comforting her with a kiss on the forehead, Terrence turned his attention back to Kendrick, who, fueled by pain and anger, had not seen who attacked him. Kendrick picked up a chair and swung it at Terrence’s back.

Meredith shouted a warning, “Terrence Sterling, watch out!” The chair struck Terrence, but he stood unflinching.

Harvey exclaimed, “Terry!” That attack only further enraged Terrence.

Turning around, his eyes icy with wrath, Terrence said, “Kendrick Gould, it seems you no longer care for your life in this world.”

As Kendrick saw it was Terrence, he stuttered in fear, “Mr… Mr… Mr. Sterling.” His bravado collapsed; the chair in his hand trembled as he set it down, no longer daring to strike.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

Kendrick was desperate, not even begging for mercy before Terrence kicked him again in the stomach. Doubled over in pain, Kendrick gasped, “Mr… Mr. Sterling, I didn’t know it was you, that she was yours. I was blind, Mr. Sterling.”

Terrence, looking down at him, asked coldly, “She is my wife. Do you think I would let you go?”

“Wife?” Kendrick was utterly shocked. Looking from Meredith to Terrence, he realized he had made a grave mistake.

This news hit Kendrick like a bolt from the blue. When had Terrence Sterling gotten married?

Noticing the rings on Meredith and Terrence’s fingers, Kendrick understood her earlier warning. If he had known she was Terrence’s woman, he wouldn’t have dared touch her.

Harvey watched amusedly, knowing anyone who dared to mess with Mrs. Sterling was courting death.

The commotion had drawn a crowd from the neighboring private room. As people gathered at the door and inside the room, they were stunned to hear that Meredith was Terrence’s wife and to see Kendrick kneeling before him.

Davina, standing on tiptoes outside the crowd, strained to see inside. She quickly messaged Joy Chaucer, “Something’s gone wrong. Meredith’s husband showed up and started fighting with Kendrick Gould.”
