I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

Chapter 718: Deep Schemes



Harvey’s eyes were serious. Mr. Fielding was taken aback and laughed, “I’m curious now, who is this stunning beauty that has captured the heart of Mr. Fieldmouse?”

“I’ll introduce you someday,” Harvey said, considering Selene as his girlfriend, exclusively his. “Mr. Fielding, I have something to do tomorrow morning, so let’s call it a night after this last drink.”

Harvey wanted to go back early to rest and pick up Selene in the morning.

Mr. Fielding said, “What’s the rush? It’s not even nine yet. Let’s drink for another hour and finish another bottle at ten.”

With that, Mr. Fielding called the waiter for another bottle of wine. Mr. Fielding was very enthusiastic and had set a reasonable time, so Harvey decided to stay a bit longer.

The waiter went to get the wine.

Harvey didn’t know that Elsa was outside. She had found out about Harvey’s whereabouts and followed him, looking for an opportunity to stop him from picking up Selene in the morning.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

The best way was to get Harvey drunk so he couldn’t wake up in the morning.

But Elsa had been waiting outside the private room for a long time. She asked the waiter several times, and each time she was told that Harvey hadn’t drunk much and wasn’t drunk.

Elsa became anxious. She gave the waiter a stack of money to add something to Harvey’s drink.

The waiter, tempted by the money, agreed to help Elsa with this task.

While Harvey and Mr. Fielding were chatting, the waiter put something in Harvey’s water and handed it to him.

Harvey, unsuspecting of the waiter’s intentions and feeling thirsty, drank it.

At first, nothing happened. But as he continued talking with Mr. Fielding, he suddenly slumped over the table and fell asleep.

Mr. Fielding, who had drunk a lot himself, thought Harvey was just drunk too and mocked him, “Mr. Fieldmouse, down already? You can’t hold your liquor.”

Harvey didn’t respond at all; he was fast asleep. Mr. Fielding called out a few times but got no response, so he had someone take Harvey to a hotel.

Elsa saw Harvey being helped out by Mr. Fielding’s assistant from outside the private room and knew her plan had worked.

The club had a hotel upstairs, so Mr. Fielding arranged for Harvey to be taken directly to a room there.

Each room on that floor of the hotel was very private. Elsa wanted to go up but found no way in without being noticed.

Worried that Harvey might discover her presence later, Elsa left first.

Satisfied with her success, Elsa returned home to find her family excitedly preparing for Selene’s release the next day.

Elsa wanted to go too, but John wouldn’t let her since no one had told Elsa about Selene’s release.

Elsa understood her family’s intentions; they didn’t want her there. But she decided she would go on her own because she couldn’t miss Selene’s release day.

“Dad, Mom, John, I’m going to my room to rest now. Goodnight,” Elsa said with a smile. “Since Sarah is coming back tomorrow, I’ll wait at home.”

Mrs. Wilkinson replied, “Alright, you go rest in your room. We’ll go pick up your sister tomorrow.”

Seeing her youngest daughter being so considerate made Mrs. Wilkinson happy.

With no recent scandals involving Elsa and Harvey, the Wilkinson couple felt more at ease.

Elsa went to her room to rest like a good daughter while the next day, Mr. and Mrs. Wilkinson and John left at seven to pick up Selene.

After they left, Elsa quietly slipped out too. She drove towards the prison and called the hotel front desk on the way to check if Harvey had checked out yet.

She mainly wanted to confirm if Harvey was awake or not; if he hadn’t checked out yet, it meant he was still asleep.

The front desk told her he hadn’t checked out yet, which made Elsa happy because it meant Harvey wouldn’t make it in time to pick up Selene.

Elsa hung up and drove to a spot near the prison where she parked and then walked over.

With John being a policeman in the family, Elsa had to be cautious. She hid across from the prison entrance where she could see the gate clearly.

She waited for Selene to walk out through that gate.

Mr. and Mrs. Wilkinson along with John were already waiting at the gate with ten minutes left until eight o’clock.

As time drew closer, everyone’s excitement grew.

Mrs. Wilkinson wore a broad smile while Mr. Wilkinson adjusted his clothes.

At eight o’clock sharp, the prison gates opened and Selene walked out. Elsa saw her and immediately took out her phone to capture this moment of Selene’s release.
