I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

Darcy DuMont returned to Auroraville with two goals: to recognize Meredith and to uncover the true cause of Bianca’s death. Meredith naturally told him everything about the incident, but Darcy had his own judgments. It was hard for him to believe that Joy Chaucer, who had called Bianca “mom” for over ten years, could have harmed her.

Chloe felt guilty, knowing the truth but unable to speak. “I’m just not in good health. I used to do business in Europe, and my irregular diet and schedule ruined my body,” Chloe coughed. “Darcy, considering the affection I had for you back then…”

This statement angered Darcy DuMont. He stood up and stared coldly at Chloe. “Bianca was truly unfortunate to have a sister like you.”

He had rejected Chloe back then.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Outside the hospital room, Joy Chaucer was restless. Meredith and Liam Michaelson were talking nearby, their voices just loud enough for Joy to catch some words but not the full conversation. When key names like Ruby Kim and Justin were mentioned, Meredith deliberately raised her voice.

Joy Chaucer felt uneasy hearing these names and strained to listen. Liam Michaelson said, “There’s progress in Ruby Kim’s case. We found some special soil and a strand of hair in the vehicle involved.”

Hearing about the hair, Joy Chaucer’s face changed; it was crucial evidence. A DNA comparison would reveal she was the one who ran over Ruby Kim.

Liam Michaelson noticed Joy’s strange expression; he had mentioned the hair on purpose. In reality, there was no such evidence. If there were, they would have already made an arrest.

Meredith understood Liam was bluffing Joy Chaucer. Joy remained composed, standing still beside them.

Soon, Darcy DuMont came out. Joy Chaucer watched as he approached Meredith. Seeing how respectful the police were to Darcy and how they addressed Meredith as Mrs. Sterling with utmost respect filled her with jealousy.

The name Joy Chaucer was originally given by Bianca and Darcy DuMont to Meredith. Though it was a good name, another person now used it, so Meredith never changed her name back.

A name is just a label; changing it wouldn’t alter the fact that she was Bianca and Darcy DuMont’s daughter.

Joy Chaucer watched as Meredith left with the police and royal guards escorting her-a display of true nobility that money couldn’t buy but only significant status could command. Even the local chief personally came to greet them.

The royal guards were brought by Catherine, who followed Darcy DuMont here, though he didn’t want to see her. Darcy now stayed at Ravenwood, heavily guarded by both royal guards and local plainclothes officers.

Because of this security, Ferris Bright had no chance to get close to Little Lucky while he stayed at Ravenwood. With a child around, the house felt livelier, pleasing the elders even more.

After Meredith’s identity was revealed, Harvey was astonished. He confirmed it with Terrence before rushing upstairs to find Selene.

“Selene, Selene! You are so lucky! Do you know who Meredith is? A royal princess!” Harvey excitedly burst into Selene’s room without knocking and froze at what he saw.

Selene had taken off her clothes and was wearing only underwear while changing her bandages in front of a mirror. Hearing the noise, she quickly dressed and shot Harvey a cold look that felt like a knife cutting through him.

Harvey swallowed nervously and turned away quickly. “Sorry, I didn’t see anything… well, maybe just a little bit.”

Saying he saw nothing would be a lie; he saw everything-Selene’s perfect figure and full breasts were incredibly alluring.

Selene sat by the mirror and coldly said, “Get out.”

Harvey closed the door but thought about Selene’s wounds and how inconvenient it must be for her to change bandages alone. He hesitantly opened the door again and asked, “Do you need help?”

Was that too suggestive?

Selene glared at him sharply. “Get out!”
