That Night My Boss Left Me With Our Three Babies

Victor anxiously awaited Olivia’s call throughout the evening, but it never came.

Suppressing his displeasure, he hurried to the kindergarten to pick up Sophia, determined to uncover the reason behind the silence.

What’s going on? He should find out once he arrives at the kindergarten.

As he arrived, he noticed that most of the children had already left, leaving only a few lingering behind.

Searching among the remaining children, Victor’s eyes landed on his daughter standing alone in a corner.

Sophia’s head hung low, her hands tightly clutching her backpack, her expression filled with dejection.

Observing this, Victor furrowed his brow and approached her, gently patting her head. “Why so unhappy? Is it because Daddy came late? Daddy apologizes…”

Before he could finish speaking, Sophia pursed her lips and walked past him without a word.

Victor’s hand hung in the air, his voice abruptly silenced. He helplessly watched his daughter walk to the car.

Only after she climbed in by herself did he avert his gaze and scan the surroundings, searching for the twins.

There was no sign of the twins.

“Mr. Leer…” The teacher, noticing Victor’s search, cautiously approached him.

Victor withdrew his gaze and looked at the person in front of him expressionlessly. “Where are the twins? Did they drop out?”

At his words, the teacher lowered her head nervously. “Not yet. I was planning to convey your message when they came to school, but this morning their mother called and said both kids were feeling unwell, so I didn’t get a chance to say…”

Victor furrowed his brow, understanding the situation. “I see.”

Having said that, without giving the teacher time to respond, he turned and went back to the car.

Inside the car, Sophia hugged her backpack, her head drooping on it, her eyes cast down, lost in her thoughts.

When Victor got in, she didn’t even raise her head, just scooted away from him, creating distance.

Sitting beside her, Victor instructed the driver to start the car, then looked at his daughter with concern. “Tell Daddy, what’s bothering you again?”

Upon hearing his voice, Sophia forcefully turned her head to the other side, clearly refusing to communicate.

Victor understood. Once again, he was the cause of her unhappiness.

As for the reason, he could probably guess, but he had no intention of resolving it at the moment.

Unless the woman contacts him personally.

Clearly, the little girl still wanted him to bring it up. Along the way, she occasionally made some noise, trying to catch his attention.NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

Victor pretended not to notice.

They arrived home, and Sophia glared at him with teary eyes, angrily returning to her room, slamming the door shut and locking it.

Downstairs, Charlotte, witnessing the father and daughter’s conflict, looked at Mr. Leer with concern. “Mr. Leer, what’s wrong with Miss Sophia…”

Victor furrowed his brow. “Leave her be, she’ll calm down later.”

Charlotte had no choice but to comply, although she felt worried.

However, dinner came and went, and Miss Sophia didn’t come down.

Charlotte glanced at Mr. Leer, who sat motionless at the dining table, not touching his food. She sighed and quickly went upstairs to call Miss Sophia.

But when she reached the door, she knocked for a while, receiving no response.

“Miss Sophia, come downstairs and have something to eat…”

Charlotte urged, but all she heard in response was a muffled thud from inside, as if something had been thrown to the ground.

Charlotte’s heart tightened, and she turned to go downstairs to inform Victor, only to find him standing behind her, seemingly appearing out of nowhere.

“Mr. Leer, you know Miss Sophia’s temperament. She’s naturally withdrawn and doesn’t speak. You have to be patient with her. How can things work out if you don’t communicate properly? Miss Sophia is different from other children. Aren’t you afraid her condition will worsen?”

As the sound of something falling echoed from inside the room, Charlotte’s concern deepened, and her eyes grew slightly red as she finished speaking.
