I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

Audrey understood what Terrence meant; having lost something before, one learns to cherish it more. Audrey didn’t respond, instead looking towards the stage.

Mrs. Wilkinson held Selene’s hand tightly, a deep bond between mother and daughter. Audrey, having lost her mother early, also longed for maternal love and could empathize with Meredith on this point.

With tears in her eyes, Mrs. Wilkinson held Selene’s hand firmly and said to the guests, “We owe Selene so much. To find our daughter and reunite our family in our lifetime is truly a blessing.”

Selene introduced herself gracefully, “Hello everyone, I am Sarah.”

From today onwards, she bid farewell to her past as Selene and became Sarah, the eldest daughter of the Wilkinson family.

John watched his sister from the audience, seeing her elegant and poised demeanor, feeling immensely proud.

Liam also felt happy for the Wilkinson family and said, “Mr. Wilkinson, this is truly fate. After all this time, you found your sister.”

Everyone knew that John had joined the anti-terrorism unit to target the Celestial Alliance and find his sister. After countless failures, he finally succeeded.

“Selene belongs to the Wilkinson family; she was destined to return,” John said with a smile.

Meanwhile, Mr. Wilkinson began speaking on stage. To help everyone get to know Selene better, they had prepared photos from her childhood.

The screen displayed photos of Selene from birth until the day she went missing. This was also the first time Selene saw these photos.

Seeing her younger self in the photos stirred a strange feeling within her. Little Selene was chubby and adorable. As the photos progressed to when she was over a year old, she wasn’t as chubby anymore. By age five, her face had slimmed down, revealing delicate features that hinted at future beauty.

In every photo, young Selene was dressed beautifully like a little princess. She was cheerful and loved to laugh before she turned five.

After joining the Celestial Alliance, those memories faded away due to harsh training that rarely left room for smiles.

The last photo shown was from the day Selene went missing. Elsa was stunned; why wasn’t there a photo of Selene after she was released? She had swapped the photos herself; why wasn’t it there?

Elsa couldn’t figure it out but felt guilty and fearful. Had her actions been discovered?

At that moment, Elsa realized that Selene’s dress had remained intact all this time without any mishap.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

After saying what they needed to say, Mr. and Mrs. Wilkinson invited everyone to start eating. Mrs. Wilkinson led Selene off the stage to introduce her to their relatives at their table.

Mrs. Wilkinson smiled and said, “Selene, this is your Aunt Mary.”

Selene greeted politely, “Hello, Aunt Mary.”

Aunt Mary was pleasantly surprised and smiled warmly, “Sarah is so beautiful. She was pretty even as a child. You’ve suffered so much over these years.”

Aunt Mary was well-mannered and though she rarely visited after marrying far away, she still cared deeply for her family.

“Thank you, Aunt Mary,” Selene accepted graciously.

Next up was her uncle.

Mr. Wilkinson introduced him, “Selene, this is your Uncle Jack.”

“Hello,” Selene greeted him.

Uncle Jack immediately stepped forward with a big smile and praised her, “Wonderful! Brother, you’re blessed with two sensible daughters.”

What made people most envious was that the Wilkinson family had John as their strongest support.

“Thank you, Uncle Jack,” Selene said happily as she received a red envelope. She felt joy in having family and relatives around her.

Elsa glanced at the zipper of Selene’s dress again, wondering why it hadn’t burst open yet.

Just then, a relative asked aloud, “Earlier Elsa mentioned that Sarah was taken to some mountains. How did she endure all these years? It’s so pitiful.”
