I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

Despite Little Lucky’s young age, she was quite strong. Her tiny hands swiftly snatched Reginald’s phone. It’s often said that children’s hands are the fastest, catching people off guard. Before Meredith could react, Little Lucky had already taken the phone. Reginald was momentarily stunned but then smiled and said, “Rowan, give Grandpa Reginald the phone.”

Little Lucky giggled. Reginald thought she was going to hand it over and reached out to take it, but Little Lucky flung it away with force. The phone hit the ground with a crash and went black. Meredith was speechless, and Reginald was on the verge of anger. Little Lucky laughed heartily; at her age, throwing things was pure entertainment.

Recently, they had been training Little Lucky’s arm strength. She always threw things, bit things, and when angry, could slap someone hard enough to hurt. Little Lucky was very strong for her age, just six months old but already robust and powerful.

Meredith couldn’t help but feel amused; this was indeed her Little Lucky, also Reginald’s nemesis. She said, “Uncle Reginald, I’m sorry about the phone. I’ll replace it.”

Reginald picked up the broken phone, forcing a smile. “It’s fine, it’s just a phone. Rowan is really strong.”

“Rowan has been throwing things lately,” Meredith explained. “Uncle Reginald, didn’t you need to use the restroom? It’s over there.”

“Alright,” Reginald replied, taking his broken phone to the restroom.

In Celestial Alliance, he wielded immense power but found himself helpless against a small child. Last time it was his prayer beads; this time it was his phone. Little Lucky seemed like total bad luck.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

Yet, Little Lucky’s adorable smile softened him; she was the cutest child he had ever seen. His fondness for her grew stronger each day. He thought about taking such a child to Celestial Alliance and turning her into an assassin for the Sterling family-a true revenge that would be deeply satisfying.

With this thought, Reginald felt much better and no longer cared about the broken phone. Since Selene had lost her memory, even if caught by the police, she posed no immediate threat. There would still be opportunities to silence her.

After leaving the restroom, Reginald interacted lovingly with Little Lucky. “Rowan, would you like Grandpa Reginald to hold you?”

Little Lucky shook her head and turned away from him. Meredith didn’t want to hand her over either.

Reginald tried to entice her with a toy. “Rowan, Grandpa Reginald has a toy for you.” The rattle caught Little Lucky’s attention; she turned to reach for it, but Reginald playfully pulled it back.

This made Little Lucky angry; her expression changed so quickly that despite having only two teeth, she looked like she was gritting them in frustration. With surprising strength for her age, she slapped Reginald across the face.

It was completely unexpected.

Meredith’s eyes widened as she quickly pulled Little Lucky away, fearing that Reginald might get angry and harm her.

Reginald felt genuine pain on his face.

Terrence came downstairs after finishing his call and saw Little Lucky slap Reginald. It was like poking a tiger; Terrence’s heart skipped a beat.

Meredith awkwardly apologized, “Uncle Reginald, I’m really sorry. Rowan is too naughty.”

Surprisingly, Reginald wasn’t angry; he even laughed. “This child is something else; she’ll grow up to be successful. Girls need to be fierce or they’ll get bullied.”

Hearing this, both Meredith and Terrence sighed in relief.

Meanwhile…

The police arrived at the company directly.

Harvey received Terrence’s call just moments before and hadn’t prepared himself or managed to get Selene away before they arrived.

Liam Michaelson knocked on Harvey’s office door with his colleagues in tow. “Sir, we need your help with something. Do you know where Selene is? She’s suspected in Ethan Channing’s murder case.”

“I… I…” Harvey stammered as he saw Selene approaching through the office window.

He panicked internally but couldn’t openly warn her away; he could only watch as Selene walked in.

“Harvey, here are the translation materials you requested,” Selene said as she entered, placing the documents on his desk before noticing Liam Michaelson and his team with a puzzled look.
