That Night My Boss Left Me With Our Three Babies

Chapter 240: Sooner or Later, We Will Get Married



Watching Olivia’s departing figure, Victor’s expression turned slightly serious.

In the morning, Olivia was fine and showed no intention of leaving. Why did she suddenly decide to leave at noon?

If he hadn’t misheard, she seemed to have mentioned that his fiancee was waiting for him in his room.

What did that mean?

As he watched their figures disappear from sight, Victor instructed Nathan in a deep voice, “Buy the next available ticket to Seacrest.”

Nathan agreed.

Victor turned around, his face stern as he strode into the elevator.

He was determined to see who this so-called fiancee really was!

Olivia had said that his fiancee was waiting for him in his room.

Victor’s expression was cold as he opened the door. Once inside, he scanned the room with a blank face but saw no one.

Just as he was about to ask Nathan to investigate, there was a sudden knock at the door.

Nathan quickly went to open it and looked somewhat troubled when he saw who it was. “Miss Thornton…”

Emma peeked inside. “Where’s Victor?”

She had clearly heard some noise from this room earlier, and at this time, Victor should have returned.

Not seeing any sign of Victor, Emma frowned slightly and tried to step into the room.

Nathan quickly blocked her way. “Miss Thornton, this is Mr. Leer’s room. It wouldn’t be appropriate for you to enter.”

Emma naturally didn’t listen to him and said, “Victor and I are going to get married sooner or later. What’s inappropriate? Let me in!”

Because she was a woman, Nathan didn’t dare use much force to stop her. After some struggle, she managed to slip inside.

Despite all the commotion, Victor didn’t come out. Emma thought he might not be there.

Unexpectedly, as she reached the end of the hallway, she saw the man sitting on the sofa.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Victor had just returned from a business meeting and hadn’t even taken off his suit. He sat on the sofa with his long legs crossed, looking at her with emotionless dark eyes that gave her an immense sense of pressure.

Meeting his gaze, Emma’s steps halted abruptly, and her arrogance faded. She cautiously spoke, “Victor, you’re here…”

Victor looked at her impassively.

The fiancee Olivia had mentioned earlier must be Emma.

Olivia probably decided to leave suddenly because of Emma’s arrival.

Thinking of this, Victor’s expression turned colder. “This is my room, of course I’m here. But you, do you need something?”

Emma’s expression stiffened slightly as she guiltily averted her gaze. “Nothing much. I just happened to have work in Norville. Auntie said you were also on a business trip here, so I came by to see you.”

“Does the Thornton Group have any projects in Norville recently? Why don’t I know about it?” Victor mercilessly exposed her lie.

In recent years, many of the Thornton Group’s projects were facilitated by Leer’s Group, so Victor knew their situation inside out.

Hearing this, Emma’s expression changed again. She secretly pinched her palm and forced herself to continue, “It’s a recent negotiation. We don’t know if it will succeed yet, so I came to try.”

Afraid that Victor would ask further, she quickly changed the topic. “By the way, why are you staying in this hotel? Did the partners book it for you?”

As soon as she finished speaking, Emma sensitively noticed that the room’s atmosphere seemed to drop a few degrees.

Victor gave her a cold glance and then indifferently looked away. “It’s none of your business. The less you ask about things that don’t concern you, the better.”
