That Night My Boss Left Me With Our Three Babies

Victor, equally expressionless, sipped his coffee, trying to suppress the displeasure in his heart.

He had asked Olivia to thank or compensate him, not to sit here in silent confrontation.

Although the so-called failed business deal was just an excuse, did Olivia really think a cup of coffee was enough to make up for his losses?

Olivia put down her cup and turned to look out the window, not intending to speak.

Firstly, she really didn’t know what else they had to talk about now. Secondly, she didn’t want to get too entangled with Victor. This cup of coffee was just to settle things once and for all.

The discomfort from the alcohol hit her in waves. Olivia occasionally lowered her eyes to take a sip of coffee, glancing at how much Victor had drunk, just wanting to finish quickly and leave.

However, after several attempts, she noticed that Victor’s cup of coffee was almost untouched.

“Mr. Leer, why aren’t you drinking?” Olivia reluctantly withdrew her gaze from the window and looked at Victor.

Victor’s eyes were dark. Hearing her question, he pulled his lips into an ambiguous smile. “Drinking it like this, there’s no taste.”

Olivia frowned, uncomfortably raising her hand to rub her temple, her fingers circling on it. “Then how does Mr. Leer want to drink it?”

After speaking, another wave of dizziness hit her. Olivia closed her eyes briefly and then opened them again, trying to look at Victor as naturally as possible.

Victor was about to say something when he saw her expression. His brows furrowed sharply. “Are you feeling unwell?”

Olivia pressed her lips together. “I’ve had a bit too much to drink. It’s nothing serious. Mr. Leer, please tell me how you want me to compensate you. After all, Leer’s Group deals with big businesses. I’m afraid today’s compensation won’t satisfy Mr. Leer.”

Seeing her pale face and hearing her subtly sarcastic words, Victor’s expression changed slightly. He didn’t say anything more and directly called the waiter over to settle the bill.

Olivia wanted to say that she should be the one treating, but she saw that Victor had already paid without hesitation.

It was the same waiter from before, looking at them as if questioning why they were denying being a couple when it was so obvious.

Meeting the waiter’s gaze made Olivia’s head hurt even more.

“Where are you staying? I’ll take you back.” Victor walked to her side, his face stern but his actions gentle.

Without giving Olivia a chance to refuse, he helped her up from her seat.

As soon as she stood up, another wave of dizziness hit her, causing her to miss the best opportunity to refuse.

By the time she recovered from the dizziness, Victor had half-supported and half-carried her to the cafe’s entrance. Almost everyone inside was watching them.

Feeling weak and not wanting to make a scene with so many people watching, Olivia went along with Victor’s intentions and let him help her into the car.

Nathan was already waiting in the car. Seeing them get in, he asked, “Mr. Leer, where to?”

Victor looked at Olivia beside him.

Olivia pressed her temple and softly refused, “No need. There are still many seniors waiting for me upstairs. I have to go back to the dinner.”

With that, she intended to open the door and get out.

Victor grabbed her wrist. “I’ll either take you back or you can rest at my place. You can choose one. My hotel is nearby.”Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Olivia frowned, turned back into her seat, and told Nathan the name of their hotel.

Nathan acknowledged and slowly started the car.

“Drive slowly,” Victor ordered in a low voice.

Hearing this, Nathan quickly agreed and drove carefully all the way.

The two people in the back remained silent throughout the journey.
