That Night My Boss Left Me With Our Three Babies

Hearing him mention Sophia’s condition, Olivia felt a pang of heartache but couldn’t show it in front of Victor.

Just as she was trying to feign indifference, Isaac suddenly shifted the topic to her. “I remember when Dr. Prescott came to treat my grandfather, Sophia seemed to really like you. I wonder if spending more time with Dr. Prescott would improve her condition.”

He then casually added, “It was the first time I saw Sophia like someone so much. It really surprised me.”

Olivia tightened her grip on her chopsticks, unsure how to tell him that Sophia’s condition was because of her.

Beside her, Victor also looked at her with a deep gaze.

In the past, whenever he mentioned Sophia in front of her, Olivia would always compromise.

But this time, it was clear that Olivia had made up her mind.

The dining table fell into silence. Olivia could clearly feel both of their gazes on her, as if they were pressuring her to respond.

She didn’t know how this meal had turned into such a situation.

After a while, Olivia forcibly adjusted her emotions and calmly looked up at Isaac. “I’m very worried about Sophia’s condition too, but I don’t think I have that much influence. If it’s about companionship, I think Miss Thornton would be more suitable since they are going to be mother and daughter in the future.”

Isaac was taken aback.

Instinctively, he wanted to argue that even if Emma was going to be Sophia’s stepmother, the person in front of him was Sophia’s biological mother!

But then he suddenly remembered that Olivia didn’t know about this.

Realizing this, Isaac was at a loss for words and awkwardly glanced at the person beside him.

Victor’s eyes darkened upon hearing Olivia’s response, and he sarcastically curled his lips. “Miss Prescott is right. Sophia has no relation to Miss Prescott. What reason does Miss Prescott have to help take care of Sophia?”

Olivia’s expression stiffened for a moment but she didn’t retort.

Seeing her almost tacit acceptance, Victor’s eyes filled with a thin layer of anger.

Sensing the growing tension between them, Isaac felt a pang of guilt and regretted bringing up the topic.

He had thought that since Olivia was Sophia’s biological mother, hearing about Sophia’s condition might soften her heart and she might go see Sophia.

But he had forgotten that Olivia was unaware of the situation.

Moreover, it was Olivia herself who had told Sophia about her plans to go abroad.

She must have known that Sophia’s emotional instability was related to her.

He never expected Olivia to be so heartless towards Sophia.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Thinking about this, Isaac looked at Olivia with a scrutinizing gaze.

He wondered if Olivia would regret what she said today once she knew the truth in the future.

Despite his thoughts, Isaac remembered he needed to clean up his own mess. He coughed lightly and said nonchalantly, “I just mentioned it casually. I forgot that Dr. Prescott has research institute matters to handle these days. She probably can’t manage it.”

Olivia remained silent.

Isaac awkwardly smiled and raised his glass towards her. “Let’s not talk about this anymore. Here’s to wishing Dr. Prescott successful collaborations with those pharmaceutical suppliers! Once they confirm the schedule, I’ll contact you immediately.”

Olivia forced a slight smile. “Thank you, Mr. Whitaker, for making the connections.”
