I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

Chapter 124: Embarrassing Party Night



Before meeting Terrence Sterling, Meredith felt like just another ordinary person in the crowd of humanity.

After meeting him, she felt like her life was now vibrant because of him.

Even if this was just a fleeting romance, she felt like it was worth it in this lifetime.

We live for eighty years, the first twenty are ignorant, the next twenty are old and immobile. Subtract half of the remaining forty for nights and busy work, how many years are left?

Even just a few days or months with him would be worth it.

Touching the four-leaf clover pendant around her neck, Meredith asked, “Is this necklace expensive?”

If it’s too expensive, she should worry about getting robbed when she wears it.

Terrence Sterling smirked, “It’s not expensive at all, just over a hundred thousand. This is the cheapest gift I can give you as my girlfriend on your birthday. They call this necklace ‘Felicity’s Love’. Meeting you is my good fortune.”

A hundred thousand is a luxury for Meredith, but for Terrence Sterling, it’s just a drop in the bucket.

There was also a card inside the jewelry box.

Terrence Sterling didn’t write anything overly sappy, just one line: “You are my missing rib.”

This statement was more moving than any vows of love.

In essence, with Meredith, he feels complete.

Moved, Meredith kissed Terrence Sterling on the lips.

There was a hint of moisture in her eyes, moved.

For the first time in her life, she was moved to tears by a man.

As Meredith was being spoiled by Terrence Sterling, Joy Chaucer, on the other hand, had been eagerly awaiting his presence.

At the birthday party.

Joy Chaucer invited dozens of friends from her circle, all the same age and close friends.

Everyone knew Terrence Sterling would be coming today, but it was already eight o’clock, and the party had started, but Terrence Sterling had not arrived.

Joy Chaucer was feeling a little embarrassed, and it was fortunate that Stella was there, or she would have become a joke.

People behind her might be making fun of her.

Joy Chaucer received many gifts, but none of them were what she wanted. She wanted the four-leaf clover necklace bought by Terrence Sterling.

Throughout the birthday banquet, Joy Chaucer’s mood was low. The salesgirl clearly said that Terrence Sterling had bought it as a gift for his girlfriend, and they said it was today. If he didn’t give it to her, then who was it for?

Bianca approached and asked, “Joy, we’re about to cut the cake, won’t you call Terry and ask where he is?”

“Mom, they said earlier that Terrence Sterling was busy today, and might not make it. Let’s not wait for him, I’ll go to the bathroom first and come back to cut the cake.” Joy Chaucer was in a bad mood.

Joy Chaucer went to the bathroom, and before she could come out of the stall, she heard two of her friends come in and gossip about her.

“Joy said Terrence Sterling would come today, but I think it’s a lie. Terrence Sterling wouldn’t be interested in her, I don’t believe it.”

“Yeah, it’s ridiculous. Why would she lie about something like this? It’s embarrassing now, isn’t it? She even talked about a proposal. I think she’s delusional.”NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

“She doesn’t even look at herself in the mirror. Besides having a wealthy mother, what else does she have that’s worthy of Terrence Sterling?”

“Exactly, her degree was bought with money. If it wasn’t for her extravagant spending and willingness to be a sucker, does she think we’d hang out with her? She’s taken herself too seriously.”

Joy Chaucer, in the stall, heard these words and was ready to explode, her face twisted with anger.

But she couldn’t just come out, it would be even more embarrassing.

The two said more hurtful words before leaving.

After they left, Joy Chaucer came out of the stall, her face twisted with rage.

She didn’t go back to the birthday party, leaving in a huff.

Bianca noticed her daughter was missing, called Joy Chaucer, but she didn’t answer.

This made Bianca very anxious.

Joy Chaucer drove alone to Thornfield Gardens. She went there to find Terrence Sterling.

Joy Chaucer, pampered by Bianca, was always used to having her way. She wanted to find Terrence Sterling and get some answers.

When Joy Chaucer arrived at Thornfield Gardens, she was told: “Miss Chaucer, Mr. Sterling hasn’t been back for a few days, he’s not here.”

“Do you think I’m stupid? Terrence Sterling must be home.” Joy Chaucer tried to force her way in and caused a scene at the door.

Mrs. Wooten was helpless and had to call Terrence Sterling.
