That Night My Boss Left Me With Our Three Babies

Chapter 261: Because of That Woman



A sudden ringtone broke the silence.

Victor’s phone was on the bedside table, its screen flashing.

Olivia glanced at it unintentionally, saw the caller ID, and then lowered her eyes, withdrawing her gaze.

The phone rang for a while before Victor turned around to pick it up.

Seeing the caller ID, Victor instinctively glanced at Olivia, then walked to the window to answer the call, “What’s up?”

On the other end, Emma’s voice sounded somewhat complaining, “I heard that the kindergarten held a tree-planting charity event, and you took Sophia to participate?”

Victor responded coldly, “Yes.”

“Sophia has always disliked crowds, hasn’t she? She never participated in such activities before. Why did she go this time?” Emma’s face looked somewhat displeased on the other end of the line.

Victor didn’t want to waste words with her and replied concisely, “Sophia wanted to come, so I brought her.”

As for why Sophia wanted to come, Victor naturally wouldn’t explain it to her.

Emma clenched her palm tightly, suppressing her anger, and patiently asked, “Why didn’t you ask me to come along? Sophia is a girl, and it’s inconvenient for you to take care of everything. If I were there, I could help.”

Victor glanced at Olivia, who was accompanying the children, and felt irritated by Emma’s voice in his ear. “Why would you come? Besides, this event is for parents to accompany their children. What role do you play?”

Hearing this, Emma choked and awkwardly said, “Everyone knows about our engagement, don’t they? And I’ve taken care of Sophia for so many years…”

“No more talking. I’m hanging up now.” Victor coldly interrupted her.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

With that, he didn’t give Emma a chance to speak and directly hung up the phone.

The room fell silent, and Victor’s voice from the phone faintly reached Olivia’s ears.

Hearing Emma’s words, Olivia felt a mix of emotions.

Although Victor didn’t let her finish, Olivia knew what Emma was going to say.

It was nothing more than claiming that she would eventually be Sophia’s mother. Everyone knew this, and attending as Sophia’s guardian wouldn’t raise any eyebrows.

Thinking about this, Olivia felt troubled. She patted Sophia’s head gently. “It’s getting late. Sophia, go to bed early. We have to get up early to plant trees tomorrow!”

Sophia obediently nodded and climbed into bed.

Olivia gave Victor a slight nod and then went to rest with the two children.

Meanwhile, at the Thornton villa.

Emma stared at the darkened phone screen for a long time before coming back to her senses, her face full of anger. She swept everything off the table onto the floor.

She had deliberately asked Victor why he suddenly took Sophia to participate in the event this time.

Victor’s answer was as perfunctory as she expected!

But so what?

Even if he didn’t say it, she could guess! It was nothing more than because of that woman!

The kindergarten held a parent-child event, and that woman would undoubtedly take those two little brats to participate!

Victor had already chased that woman to Norville last time. This time, it wasn’t surprising that he participated in the event because of her!

If they continued to interact like this, who knows what might happen!

Thinking about the possible outcomes made Emma tremble with anger!

No way. She couldn’t just stand by and watch that woman get closer to Victor!

Even if Victor refused her, she had to go and see for herself!
