That Night My Boss Left Me With Our Three Babies

Isaac spent quite some effort smoothing over the unpleasantness he had stirred up earlier, engaging Olivia in a detailed conversation about Seacrest’s current pharmaceutical industry.

Olivia patiently conversed with him.

Victor, on the other hand, remained silent, drinking his wine quietly.

Seeing that the wine bottle was more than half empty, Isaac hurriedly ended the dinner, “It’s getting late. Let’s call it a day. I’ll make sure to finalize the time with the herbal suppliers as soon as possible.”

Olivia, not wanting to stay any longer, agreed without objection.

The three of them walked downstairs together. Olivia was about to settle the bill when Isaac stopped her.

“What I said last time was just a joke. How could I let you pay? If my grandfather found out, he’d skin me alive.”

With that, Isaac went to pay the bill and then returned to Victor’s side, raising his eyebrows triumphantly.

Victor frowned but said nothing.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Since Isaac had mentioned Liam and considering the amount was insignificant for him, Olivia didn’t argue further.

It was nearly nine o’clock when they left the restaurant.

Although they were acquaintances, Olivia had drunk quite a bit during dinner and felt slightly tipsy. The evening breeze helped clear her head a bit.

Isaac’s voice sounded beside her, “Dr. Prescott, how are you getting home? Would you like me to give you a ride?”

Olivia had driven herself there but couldn’t drive back after drinking.

Hearing this, Olivia glanced at the traffic, “Thank you for your kind offer, Mr. Whitaker, but the Whitaker family and my home are not on the same route. I’ll just take a cab.”

With that, she started walking towards the roadside.

Isaac looked at Victor beside him.

Victor frowned as he watched Olivia’s slender figure disappear into the night.

“It’s rush hour now, who knows how long it will take to get a cab. Let me give you a ride. It’s just the car running, not us walking,” Isaac called out to Olivia.

Olivia paused. Since Isaac had helped her so much already, it seemed inappropriate to refuse such a small favor.

Noticing her hesitation, Isaac added with a smile, “Please don’t be formal with me. Liam specifically asked me to take good care of you.”

Unable to refuse any longer, Olivia turned back and smiled politely at him, “Thank you.”

Isaac waved his hand dismissively, “It’s no trouble at all. It would be more troublesome if you didn’t let me drive you.”

With that, he gave Victor a meaningful look.

Olivia didn’t catch his implication and thought he was referring to Liam. She smiled but didn’t respond.

The three of them walked to the parking lot together.

As they reached the parking lot, Olivia realized that Victor had been following them all along, which made her feel a bit strange.

When they reached the cars and saw that Victor’s car was parked next to Isaac’s, a suspicion arose in her mind.

Isaac’s so-called coincidental meeting was actually just an excuse, they had come together!

This suspicion flashed through Olivia’s mind.

Then she thought that Isaac had no reason to lie about this. After all, he didn’t know about her relationship with Victor, making such a setup unnecessary.

Olivia dismissed the thought and got into Isaac’s car.
