I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

Terrence was baffled. Ten years of plotting? When did he ever kill Ethan Channing’s parents? He had been investigating his feud with Ethan Channing but had no recollection of such an event. Even now, he was clueless. He found out that Ethan Channing returned to the country ten years ago, and everything started from that point.

“Ethan Channing, explain yourself. How did I kill your parents? What happened?” Terrence asked. “When did I ever kill your parents?”

“Terrence…” Ethan Channing gritted his teeth, convinced that Terrence was denying it.

Terrence asked directly, “What were your parents’ names, and how did they die?”

“Ten years ago, you ran over my parents with your car. Two lives, and you forgot. You thought having the driver take the blame would hide what you did.” Ethan Channing’s bloodied hand clutched Terrence’s clothes. If he had any chance for revenge, he would drag Terrence down with him.

Terrence pulled Ethan Channing’s hand away and said coldly, “I never ran over anyone.”

At that moment, the police arrived. Veridian Fever led the officers to surround the area. Ethan Channing was barely conscious; his thigh had been slashed by glass, nearly hitting an artery. Blood flowed freely as his face turned pale and he lost consciousness.

Terrence didn’t get any answers. The police took Ethan Channing away to the hospital for treatment. Terrence explained to the police that he came to the dock for a meeting, encountered an explosion, and drove away with his assistant, coincidentally running into Ethan Channing being attacked.

Given Terrence’s social status, the police didn’t dare to offend him and naturally didn’t suspect his involvement in the dock incident.

After Ethan Channing was taken away and the police left, Rick approached. “Mr. Sterling, tonight’s events are strange.”

The cause of the explosion was unclear, and who wanted to kill Ethan Channing was also unknown.

Terrence’s deep eyes narrowed as he looked in the direction where a black car had just left. “It seems Ethan Channing is just a puppet.”

Rick said, “Mr. Sterling, my legs are a bit weak.”

Not just weak legs; his heart was racing too. Rick had witnessed Ethan Channing being shot but couldn’t see who did it clearly.

Terrence hadn’t seen clearly either; when his car lights shone on them, they were reflected back by a mirror. In a daze, he noticed something on the person’s wrist.

“Get in the car.”

Terrence glanced at the time; it was already 7:30 PM. His family was still waiting for him to come home for dinner.

When Rick got into the driver’s seat, Terrence told him to sit in the back while he drove himself, not wanting to force Rick.

Rick felt a bit embarrassed. “Mr. Sterling, how can I let you drive?”

Terrence gave him a look. “Then you drive?”

Rick pressed his weak leg and laughed awkwardly. “Mr. Sterling, for safety’s sake, you should drive.”

They needed to cross a mountain later; part of the road was winding with sharp turns-one side mountain, one side cliff.

Terrence started the car and headed towards Ravenwood.

At this hour, there were still vehicles on the road, mostly trucks transporting goods from the dock to city warehouses.

As they drove down a mountain road, due to the terrain, Terrence slowed down and drove cautiously.

Suddenly, there was a loud bang as a tire burst unexpectedly. The abrupt noise made Rick in the backseat jump in fear. “Mr. Sterling.”

Terrence frowned slightly; with a blown tire, he could only keep driving.

The tire had been shot out. After they passed by, a shadow emerged from hiding-it was Selene.

She had shot out their tire earlier.

She called Damien: “Tell Master I missed.”

At the dock earlier, Selene hadn’t had a chance to act with the police around. She hadn’t intended to act seriously but had to make a move anyway.

Today she wanted to see who had been shadowing her all along.

After the tire burst, nothing else unusual happened. Rick said, “Mr. Sterling, maybe we ran over something that caused it to burst. Once we reach the foot of the mountain, I’ll have Linda pick us up.”© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

The phone rang,

Terrence answered Meredith’s call; at that moment, a bullet whizzed past.

Terrence instinctively dodged aside.

Still shaken up, Terrence smelled gasoline.
