I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

Damien didn't dare to breathe loudly and said with his head lowered, "It was your family who set the fire. The firefighters have already gone to put it out, but the fire is too big."

Reginald had used extreme measures to take back the old house, and the other party was not willing to accept it. So, they burned it down in one go. The one who set the fire was Reginald's uncle, who never acknowledged Reginald as his nephew. Reginald's uncle was already over eighty years old, and when he set the fire, he was inside as well. He intended to perish together with the house.

Damien never expected the other side to be so resolute.

Reginald irritably ran a hand through his hair and glanced at Little Lucky sleeping in the crib. Then he said to Damien, "Let's go and take a look now."

Reginald had to go see it, even if the house was reduced to ruins. It was his roots; he had just found them, and now they were burned.

"Yes, Master." Damien took a few people with him.

This time, Reginald did not bring Little Lucky along; he left her in the care of the assassin Rose.

Terrence was constantly monitoring Reginald's movements. Using binoculars, he saw Reginald leaving the hotel with Damien and some others but without Little Lucky. He felt a surge of excitement.

Terrence knew his opportunity had come. Reginald had taken some of the Celestial Alliance members with him, making it easier for Terrence to act.

He put on a disguise and prepared some items in his pocket before heading out.

Ten minutes later, Terrence changed into hotel staff attire and carried a pack of diapers to the floor where Reginald was staying.

Reginald had booked the entire floor, making it very empty. There was no one in the corridor. As soon as Terrence stepped out of the elevator, two Celestial Alliance guards stopped him.

Terrence lied, "The front desk received a call from room 809 requesting baby diapers."

The two guards routinely checked; seeing that it was indeed diapers, one of them said, "Just give them to us."

Little Lucky went through diapers quickly; this wasn't the first time hotel staff had been asked to prepare them.

Everyone in Celestial Alliance knew how much Reginald adored Little Lucky. Anything related to her would not be stopped or verified too strictly.

This was something Terrence had discovered after following them for so long; only by using this excuse could he get closer to his daughter.

With his disguise on, Terrence looked ordinary, and the Celestial Alliance guards did not recognize him.

Terrence smiled and said, "Alright then, I'll hand them over to you."

As he handed over the two packs of diapers, he swiftly injected one guard with a syringe filled with anesthetic before they could react. He then kicked down the other guard and quickly anesthetized him as well before he could get up. Terrence remembered how they had anesthetized his wife and knocked her out; now it was their turn to taste it.

Terrence moved so quickly that both guards were subdued within moments without alerting anyone inside the room.

After glancing around, Terrence dragged both guards aside and then knocked on the door of room 809 with the diapers in hand.

Inside the room, Little Lucky had woken up and started crying. Rose couldn't calm her down no matter what she tried. Holding Little Lucky while trying different ways to soothe her, she heard the knock on the door. Thinking that only Celestial Alliance members would knock given that they were guarding outside, she went to open the door with Little Lucky in her arms.

Seeing hotel staff at the door surprised Rose. "What's going on?"

Rose was very cautious; she peeked into the corridor but didn't see any guards. Her alarm bells immediately went off.

Terrence saw his daughter crying in Rose's arms and suppressed his urge to take her immediately. He said, "I'm here to deliver diapers."

Little Lucky sensed her father despite his disguise. She smelled a familiar scent and reached out her hands towards him with a pitiful look, mumbling unclearly, "Papa."
