I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

Chapter 634: The Critical Moment When the Father-in-law Stepped In



Rose exited the hotel, scanning the crowd for Terrence, but instead, she spotted John Wilkinson outside. Many in the Celestial Alliance had fallen into John Wilkinson's hands, so Rose recognized him immediately. It seemed the police had tracked them to Japan. Abandoning her pursuit of Terrence, Rose quickly hid in the crowd and slipped away.

Little Lucky was lost, and Rose could already foresee Reginald's fury when he found out. Despite this, she had no choice but to call and inform him. Reginald had just arrived at his hometown, only to find it in ruins. His anger flared as he received the call about the hotel incident, John Wilkinson's arrival in Japan, and the loss of Little Lucky.

Reginald was furious about losing Little Lucky, who had become his emotional anchor. Without Little Lucky, he felt an overwhelming emptiness. With the police closing in, Reginald knew he had to keep hiding; a direct confrontation was out of the question. He suspected Selene and Hya had provided many clues to John Wilkinson, which only fueled his rage.

All hotel guests were evacuated, alerting the local police. Eventually, it was discovered that the chaos was a false alarm caused by sabotage-there was no fire. The situation calmed down after this revelation. John Wilkinson realized that the hotel incident was connected to Terrence. With people alerted, Reginald would undoubtedly flee.

John Wilkinson contacted Terrence: "Was the hotel incident your doing?"

"Yes," Terrence replied from another hotel where he had settled with his daughter. With his daughter safe in his arms, Terrence felt relieved and at ease; he could finally give Meredith some peace of mind.

John Wilkinson urgently said, "You've alerted Reginald; he's going to run now. Tracking him down again will be even harder."

"That's your problem," Terrence responded coldly. "My priority is my daughter's safety. I can't gamble with her life."

John Wilkinson was left speechless; ensuring hostage safety always came first in any operation involving capturing criminals. He knew rescuing a defenseless infant posed significant challenges.

Before coming here, John Wilkinson hadn't been entirely confident about retrieving Little Lucky safely. After hanging up, Terrence gazed tenderly at his sleeping daughter on the bed and couldn't resist kissing her forehead softly: "Rowan, Daddy will protect you and ensure you grow up happily."

Terrence called Meredith to share the news of their daughter's rescue. Overjoyed, Meredith insisted on a video call to see her child. Through the phone screen, Meredith saw her sleeping daughter and couldn't hold back her tears of joy: "Rowan."

Meredith was ecstatic, feeling as if a heavy cloud had lifted from her heart. "When are you coming back? Tomorrow? My dad is already in Japan; maybe you should contact him and return to Auroraville together." She worried that Terrence might suffer if he encountered Reginald alone.

"I'll bring Rowan back tomorrow," Terrence replied. "I won't meet Mr. DuMont; I'll call him later to explain." He reassured Meredith: "You can relax now; get a good night's sleep tonight. You'll see our daughter tomorrow."

"Okay, okay," Meredith said excitedly, reluctant to take her eyes off their daughter even for a moment.

Terrence shared her excitement and joy that night; he stayed awake all night tending to his daughter's needs. Without baby formula prepared, he got rice soup from the hotel for Little Lucky when she cried from hunger during the night. Terrence had come alone to Japan to rescue his daughter and stayed close to Reginald without being detected. Even now, Reginald didn't know who had taken Little Lucky-he assumed it was the police.

Unable to sleep without Little Lucky by his side that night, Reginald felt restless and uncomfortable. Early the next morning, he ordered all Celestial Alliance members in Japan to search for Little Lucky and bring her back at any cost.

The Celestial Alliance's tracking capabilities exceeded Terrence's expectations. As he arrived at Nichigawa Airport with Little Lucky in his arms, he noticed Celestial Alliance members near the entrance. Nichigawa had only one airport; flying was undoubtedly the fastest way out of Japan. There were only two flights to Auroraville that morning.

Reginald had already stationed people at the airport.

Wearing a baseball cap and holding Little Lucky close, Terrence temporarily hid in a restroom and called Mr. DuMont: "Dad, I've been spotted at the airport..."
