I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

Chapter 79: Fiona Disappears



The bed board was broken in the middle. When the landlord bought it, it was a second-hand bed, meant for one person’s weight. With two people on it, there was a bit of “pressure.”

Terrence Sterling examined it and said, “Looks like we’ll have to change it. I’ll have a bed sent over tomorrow. For tonight, we’ll have to make do, or you can come back with me to Thornfield Gardens.”

“Wait a minute,” Meredith straightened out the situation, “Mr. Sterling, this is my home. You and I have no relationship. You don’t need to send a bed over, and I won’t come back with you to Thornfield Gardens, let alone become your girlfriend.”

She had to make it clear.

Meredith’s words were blunt. She thought Terrence Sterling would get angry, but he seemed as though he hadn’t heard a word, his gaze fixed on the broken bed. “I will have a bed sent over now.”

Meredith nearly exploded on the spot. Why did Terrence Sterling seem like he couldn’t understand her?

However, she didn’t dare to say that.

“Mr. Sterling, you’re a multi-billionaire, the president of Sterling Corporation. You can’t stay here, it doesn’t befit your status.”

A multi-billionaire president chasing after a woman?

Staying at a girl’s house late at night?

If this got out, it would cause quite a stir in the corporate world.

In Meredith’s impression, someone like Terrence Sterling, a big CEO, should act like they do on TV, aloof and indifferent, not paying any attention to women who come to them, cold-blooded and ruthless, having a personality, and having a well-matched rich woman by their side.

The current Terrence Sterling, acting like a “rascal,” was completely out of character.

What about his image?

Terrence Sterling stood up, his eyes shrouded in mystery, like a bottomless pond. He said, “Meredith, I am just an ordinary man with human desires.”

Meredith still had some rationality left. “We are really not suitable. I didn’t try to provoke you just now. If it were another man, my body would have reacted the same way. Like Mr. Sterling said, I am just a normal person with human desires, having physiological reactions is normal and doesn’t mean anything.”

Terrence Sterling looked at Meredith for a moment, his eyebrows slightly raised. “Do you have someone you like? Is it that scumbag who abandoned you?”

Scumbag? Meredith didn’t react at first, she didn’t have anyone she liked.

Then she understood.

Terrence Sterling was talking about the man who “impregnated” her.

Meredith dare not say it, that person was Terrence Sterling himself.

Before Meredith could say anything, Terrence Sterling left a sentence, “I’ll have a bed sent over tomorrow. Rest early,” and then left.

He came without warning and left just as suddenly.

Meredith was at a loss. What did Terrence Sterling mean?

If the broken bed board didn’t prove that Terrence Sterling had been here, Meredith would have thought she was dreaming.

Meredith’s mind was in chaos. She sat on the sofa where Terrence Sterling had sat just now, her ears echoing with his words.

In this lifetime, she had never expected to hear a confession from Terrence Sterling. If this got out, how many women would envy her?

If it weren’t for Fiona… she might have agreed just now.

Honestly, who could resist the charm of a multi-billionaire like Terrence Sterling?

Even if it was just to try, she wouldn’t lose out. She wasn’t someone who was against relationships; if she had to find a man, she would choose someone with better skills in that aspect, rather than a man who would collapse in bed after a few minutes.

Terrence Sterling was good-looking, wealthy, and had strong skills in that department. Even if she had to pay, a man like him was highly sought after.

But unfortunately, there was Fiona between them.

Thinking of Fiona, Meredith called Justin and asked, “Justin, has Fiona contacted you recently?”Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

Justin, who was organizing court documents, received the call and asked in confusion, “No, Meredith, what’s wrong? Can’t get over Fiona? Want to make amends with her?”

“I heard she moved out of Thornfield Gardens. Terrence Sterling and her broke up months ago, but I haven’t heard anything from her, and she hasn’t contacted you. Where could she have gone?” Meredith worried, “Could something have happened to her?”

The more Meredith thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

Despite Fiona’s soft nature, when she dug in her heels, not even ten cows could pull her back. What if she couldn’t bear it and did something drastic like jumping into a river?

“Don’t worry for now, I’ll try to contact her. It should be fine,” Justin also became worried. After hanging up with Meredith, he called Fiona.

Fiona’s phone was turned off. He sent a message, only to realize that he had been blocked by Fiona.

He couldn’t contact Fiona at all.
