I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

Azure worried that if Audrey truly had an affair, it would eventually come to light, and Terrence wouldn't be able to handle it. Compared to a deceased wife, a wife who had fallen out of love might be less painful. Audrey didn't love Terrence, and over time, Terrence's feelings for his wife would also fade.

Azure once read a story online about a wife who, knowing her life was nearing its end, used various death scenarios to scare her husband every day. Over time, the husband grew tired and impatient with his wife. When she finally died, he accepted it quickly because he had been through so many of her death pranks; he wasn't very sad. This was the wife's way of loving her husband.

A sudden death leaves people with lingering thoughts, longing, unwillingness, and regret. Conversely, if someone's passion fades or they fall out of love or die, it isn't as heartbreaking.

"Azure," Gordon said as he walked out of the room. "You're back."

"You're home?" Azure was startled.

Gordon was her friend and agent, so he could enter her place freely.

"I just got here to talk about the performance," Gordon said. "You don't look well. Is something bothering you?"

Azure felt uncomfortable keeping it to herself and said, "I followed Meredith earlier and found something."

Gordon joked, "What did you find? Don't tell me Meredith is having an affair?"

Azure was surprised. "How did you know?"

Now it was Gordon's turn to be surprised. "I was just guessing. Really? Meredith's husband is Terrence. With a husband like him, she's still cheating?"

"She suddenly asked me out today, which I found strange. Maybe she used me as an excuse because Terrence watches her too closely," Azure said. "We were shopping when she said she had something to do and left. I saw her get into a car, followed it, and saw her enter a hotel with a man, acting intimately."

"Did you tell Terrence?" Gordon was curious.

"No," Azure replied. "If it's a misunderstanding and I tell Terrence hastily, it could cause trouble."

Gordon suggested, "Keep observing for now and find out more about that man first. Catching them red-handed is crucial. As for when or whether to tell Terrence, we can decide later."

Hearing this, Azure stared at him for a long time. "I thought you were biased against Terrence and would gloat over this."

Gordon laughed. "I lost my bias against him a long time ago."

Over the past year, Azure reconciled with the Sterling family, who also compensated her. Azure's emotions stabilized as she completely emerged from the shadows. Gordon was happy for her and wouldn't dwell on the past. He had always advised Azure to let go of the past and wouldn't be the one to keep poking at her wounds.

Azure smiled too. Though she couldn't reciprocate Gordon's feelings, their current mode of interaction was quite good.

She was lucky to have Gordon by her side.

To find out who Audrey was cheating with, Azure asked Gordon to follow Audrey whenever he had time.

This news thrilled the Wilkinson family. Mrs. Wilkinson cried tears of joy: "We must give Sarah a grand welcome this time and invite all our friends and relatives to celebrate Sarah's return with a big party."
