I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

In front of Harvey, Terrence still had to pretend to be blind. Upon learning about Selene’s situation, Terrence was surprised. “Harvey, are you sure Selene doesn’t remember?”

“I’ve been following her all day, I’m sure. I asked her to be my secretary at my company, and she agreed without hesitation. If it were the old Selene, she would never have agreed,” Harvey said. “I helped her rent an apartment; I know where she lives. Boss, you can go see for yourself.”

“It is a bit strange,” Terrence said. “Selene failed her mission before. According to the Celestial Alliance’s usual handling, she should be in grave danger. Now she’s alive but has lost her memory. Her memory must have been erased.”

“Erased?” Harvey was curious. “Does the Celestial Alliance have that kind of capability?”

“Don’t underestimate them,” Terrence said. “It’s not surprising they could do this. Keep a close eye on Selene.”

“Don’t worry, boss. I’ll keep her close and watch her twenty-four hours a day,” Harvey said. “Do you think the Celestial Alliance might have given up on her? Maybe she can live a normal life now.”

Deep down, Harvey felt sympathy for Selene. Like any ordinary girl her age, she should be dating, dining with friends, working hard, and enjoying life with a few admirers.

But Selene was an assassin, always at risk of losing her life. Terrence had told him how the Celestial Alliance trained their assassins.

They selected candidates from a group of children, training them from a young age and forcing them to fight each other until only one remained.

Every assassin from the Celestial Alliance survived by standing on countless corpses.

Terrence shook his head. “The Celestial Alliance invests a lot in training an assassin; they won’t give up on Selene. No assassin leaves the Celestial Alliance unscathed.”

Hearing this, Harvey became anxious. “Did Selene escape from them? If she’s caught, isn’t she doomed? I’ll go find her now and hire more bodyguards to protect her.”

“It’s possible she escaped. The Celestial Alliance is very good at finding people; they might already be looking for her.”

“I’m going to find Selene now.” Harvey rushed out, worried about Selene’s safety.

Terrence didn’t stop him and let him go.

At a temple.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

Reginald had been staying here with Grandma Sterling for a day.

After praying, Grandma Sterling planned to eat vegetarian meals for three more days as part of her prayers.

Reginald wanted to show his filial piety and decided to stay with her.

While Grandma Sterling was praying, Reginald went alone to the back mountain.

Damien appeared. “Master, yesterday Selene escaped from the Celestial Alliance headquarters. Her memory has been erased. Should we capture her?”

Even though Reginald wasn’t at headquarters, he knew what had happened.

“No need, just keep an eye on her,” Reginald said. “Let’s see how long this memory-erasing technology lasts.”

Selene was just one test subject among many.

“Yes, Master.” Damien felt a bit unwilling; he thought they had given up on Selene.

“Leave here and go watch the Sterling family closely. Keep an eye on Terrence,” Reginald instructed.

“Understood.” Damien left immediately.

After he left, Reginald returned to find Grandma Sterling chatting with a nun after finishing her prayers.

Seeing Reginald, Grandma Sterling waved him over. “Reginald, come here.”

“Mom,” Reginald walked over.

“I’ve buried your parents here; go pay your respects,” Grandma Sterling said kindly.

Reginald didn’t appreciate the gesture; he saw it as hypocritical.

Outwardly obedient, he replied, “Alright.”
