That Night My Boss Left Me With Our Three Babies

Chapter 77: Like an Outsider



Victor lingered near the restaurant entrance, his gaze fixed on Sophia, who now wore a radiant smile. Within him, a whirlwind of emotions swirled, surprised that his efforts to comfort her had been overshadowed by a few words from Olivia and the two boys.

Sophia’s tears had vanished, replaced by a heartwarming smile.

After pausing for a moment, witnessing the joy on Sophia’s face as she enjoyed the company of the two boys, Victor approached, intending to take Sophia back with him.

They had come here because Sophia wanted to see for herself, and now that she was satisfied, it was time to go back.

Just as he reached Sophia’s side, he heard her stomach rumble.

Olivia furrowed her brow and inquired, “Have you not had dinner yet?”

Sophia pressed her lips together and shook her head, indicating that she hadn’t eaten.

Observing this exchange, Olivia glanced at Victor, her eyes revealing a hint of reproach.

Victor met her gaze without expression and replied, “I tried to convince her. She cried all night, locked herself in her room when we got back, refused to eat or drink. I promised to bring her here, and only then did she finally stop crying. She didn’t have a chance to eat.”

Olivia glanced at the thin shirt worn by the man and reluctantly averted her eyes.

Meanwhile, Sebastian looked at his Sophia with concern and said, “We just started eating. Do you want to join us?”

Sophia’s eyes lit up, and she nodded eagerly before realizing she should seek her father’s approval.

Victor hesitated briefly, then turned to Olivia and asked, “If it’s not too much trouble, could you get her something to eat?”

“Would you like to sit between the little boys?” Olivia suggested directly.

A broad smile appeared on Sophia’s face.

The two little boys immediately shifted their chairs, making room for Sophia.

Victor observed as Sophia settled between the twins, unintentionally furrowing his brow.

In this moment, they looked like a family, and he felt like an outsider.

Olivia settled Sophia in her seat, served her food, and observed the three kids sitting together with a smile in her eyes.

However, the gaze of Victor beside her made her feel uncomfortable.

Olivia suppressed her smile, turned to face Victor, and met his gaze.

He had also concealed his emotions, his face appearing indifferent.

“What about you?” Olivia asked casually, suppressing her inner curiosity.

Upon hearing her question, Victor furrowed his brow slightly, showing a hint of confusion on his face.

Olivia calmly shifted her gaze away, scanning the food on the table. “Have you eaten?”

Considering how Sophia had been refusing to eat, he must have been preoccupied with comforting her throughout the night.

Victor couldn’t help but stare at her for a few seconds before calmly averting his gaze and distancing himself. “I’m fine. We already have dinner ready at home. I can heat it up later. It’s just that Sophia enjoys being with these two children. Thank you for taking care of dinner. I’ll wait in the living room and not disturb your meal.”

After his words, he glanced at the three harmonious children and turned to leave.

Upon hearing his words and seeing him actually prepare to leave on an empty stomach, Olivia sighed helplessly and pursed her lips. “We don’t lack an extra plate at home. Besides, Sophia feels a bit uneasy without her father around.”

As soon as Olivia finished speaking, Sophia lifted her head and, seeing her father about to leave, became anxious.

Without waiting for his response, Olivia served him a plate of food and placed it on the table. “If you don’t mind, sit down and eat with us.”This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

Sebastian, observing this scene, frowned slightly, but ultimately chose not to say anything.

Ethan, on the other hand, ate his food while secretly stealing glances at the man nearby, his heart filled with anticipation.
