I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

Chapter 13: Deceive Her



Meredith was actually being honest, that much was not a lie.

Last time, she slept with Terrence Sterling simply because she was drunk.

Terrence Sterling hadn’t expected his secretary to be so bold, daring to speak her mind about anything.

Suddenly, he really wanted to see what Meredith looked like when she was drunk.

“Drink,” Terrence Sterling placed the glass in front of her, “If anything happens, I’ll take the responsibility.”

Meredith: “…”

No, seriously?

Mr. Sterling, you have a girlfriend after all. If something happens tonight, she won’t be able to handle the blame.

Meredith waved her hand, about to refuse, but with a look from Terrence Sterling, she immediately put on a smile, “Thank you, Mr. Sterling.”

She had no choice here it seemed.

She depended on her boss for her salary! Not to mention drinking a couple glasses of wine, she couldn’t possibly refuse even if it was his… No, that’s not going to happen! She will drink the wine, and this is it!

Meredith took the glass, with a fake gesture, which only fueled Terrence Sterling’s anger.

He really wanted to tear off her mask and see the true face beneath.

Meredith closed her eyes, with a look of resignation, and drank it all in one go.

It truly was good wine, not a bit harsh, with a sweet aftertaste.

Meredith thought that was it, but as soon as the drink went down, Terrence Sterling poured another one.

Meredith, exasperated, said, “…”

For the money!

Meredith drank one glass after another, and in the end, she had lost count of how many she had drunk.

She blacked out again.

The next day.

She woke up in a hotel room.

She subconsciously looked beside her, no one was there. She lifted the blanket to check her clothes… they had been changed!

Meredith’s heart skipped a beat. Could it be that she had slept with Terrence Sterling again last night?Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

She tried hard to remember, but it was all a blur.

“You are finally awake.”

A deep voice came from the direction of the bathroom.

Meredith turned to look and saw Terrence Sterling in a loose bathrobe, a sight that sparked her wild imagination.

Her heart raced, she turned her head away in embarrassment, hands covering her face, silently cursing in her heart! Damn alcohol got her into trouble again! She was done for this time.

Seeing her reaction, Terrence Sterling said, “Your clothes were changed by the hotel staff.”

Upon hearing that, Meredith was overjoyed, immediately looking up, “Really? Did anything happen between us?”

The tone didn’t sound disappointed, it was almost as if she was relieved.

Did this woman have no intentions about him at all?

Terrence Sterling felt a bit frustrated, but his face remained impassive, almost cold, as he replied, “No.”

Those who knew Terrence Sterling well could tell he was truly mad.

Terrence Sterling’s emotions were usually hidden, but even his expressions were intentional. However, this time, his anger was genuine.

Meredith let out a sigh of relief upon hearing his answer, patting her chest subconsciously, feeling like she had narrowly escaped death, “That’s good, you scared me there.”

The voice was definitely not soft.

Terrence Sterling coldly said, “I’m not deaf.”

In other words, he heard all her mumbling.

Meredith smiled awkwardly, “Mr. Sterling.”

Terrence Sterling sat on the couch, his presence dominating the room, even while seated, he exuded a commanding aura.

“Meredith, are you really feeling fortunate that nothing happened? Last night, you were so insistent, saying you wanted to do something improper to me. Did you drink too much and regret it?”

Meredith had a puzzled expression, “?”

She sensed that Terrence Sterling was upset, but she couldn’t figure out why.

Was he trying to make her sleep with him?

Was his pride hurt?

No, surely she misunderstood, he teased her for being plain, if she actually slept with him, she’d be in big trouble.

Meredith chuckled awkwardly, “Mr. Sterling, I was just joking, I wouldn’t dare have any improper ideas about you. Rest assured, I have no thoughts beyond my work for you. If I offended you in any way last night, please don’t hold it against me…”

She apologized profusely, her face almost cracking with a smile, but Terrence Sterling’s expression grew darker.

Meredith felt anxious, did she do something while drunk last night?

Meredith cautiously asked, “Mr. Sterling, last night I drank a lot, did I… say anything foolish?”

Fearful of the truth coming out when drunk, she might have mentioned sleeping with him.

“What’s wrong? Feeling guilty?” Terrence Sterling raised an eyebrow, not intending to tease her, but seeing her scared expression, he found it amusing, scoffing, “Meredith, I didn’t expect you to be so daring. What did you do last night, what did you say, don’t remember?”
