I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

Chapter 488: In a Single Thought



Ferris Bright followed Stellar all the way. He had been observing for several days and found that Stellar always came to this club.

After having a granddaughter, Stellar couldn't be more proud. With Meredith and Terrence Sterling not in Auroraville, Stellar took every opportunity to show off. Little Lucky was truly adorable, and all of Stellar's friends wanted to hold her. Seeing how cute the Sterling family's granddaughter was, these wealthy ladies went home to urge their daughters-in-law to have a granddaughter. Those who weren't married were pushed to get married quickly and have a granddaughter. Grandsons were no longer as desirable.

People's preferences were changing; more and more people preferred girls.

In a large tea room, other wealthy ladies were already arranging flowers and learning how to blend fragrances-traditional cultural activities taught by instructors.

"Sorry, I'm late again," Stellar said, entering with Little Lucky in her arms. She always timed her entrance perfectly to make a grand appearance.

Mrs. William, who was arranging flowers, said, "Mrs. Sterling, you're late again."

Mrs. Landwright, practicing fragrance blending, said, "You know she just wants to make an entrance. It's my turn to hold Rowan today. Mrs. Sterling, let me hold Little Rowan."

Mrs. Landwright smiled broadly as she got up to wash her hands, ready to hold Little Lucky.

Little Lucky had just woken up and was licking her small hand. Babies love to put things in their mouths.

Mrs. Landwright gently moved Little Lucky's hand away and said, "Rowan, you can't eat your hand. Come here."

Little Lucky was upset about not being able to lick her hand. Like all human babies, no matter what expression they made, they were always adorable. Even when Little Lucky looked grumpy, everyone found it endearing. "Oh my, Rowan looks so cute when she's angry."

"Her chubby little cheeks make me want to pinch them."

Stellar said, "My little granddaughter's skin is delicate; you can't pinch her. What if you hurt her with your heavy hands?"

Everyone laughed and chatted while Stellar held Little Lucky and watched them arrange flowers and blend fragrances.

Babies sleep a lot. After playing for about two hours, Little Lucky needed milk and sleep.

After eating and drinking her fill, Little Lucky fell asleep with a pacifier in her mouth. She looked so peaceful that Stellar couldn't bear to put her down.

"My Rowan looks beautiful even when she's asleep-a little sleeping beauty."

Stellar held her for a while longer until her arms got tired before handing her over to the nanny to place in the stroller.

To avoid disturbing Little Lucky's sleep, Stellar asked the nanny to take her to the next room where it was quieter.

When the two nannies took Little Lucky into the room, Ferris Bright was watching from the hallway. He had no chance to act; Stellar valued this child too much and kept the nannies close at all times. The club was filled with surveillance cameras, making it impossible to take Little Lucky away unnoticed.

Ferris Bright didn't actually want to harm a child; he knew it was wrong. But thinking of Joy Chaucer's pitiful face hardened his resolve.

Some things in life are inexplicable or hard to understand-like fathers who harm their own children for the sake of pleasing a mistress and end up in prison together with them.

Some people knowingly do what they shouldn't do.

Heaven and hell are often just a single thought apart.

Ferris Bright finally saw one of the nannies go to the restroom, leaving only one nanny watching Little Lucky. He seized the opportunity and went inside.

The nanny saw a stranger enter and became very cautious. "Who are you looking for?"

She thought he was looking for someone.

Ferris Bright walked straight towards the stroller with large strides. The nanny realized something was wrong and quickly blocked his way. "What are you doing?"
