That Night My Boss Left Me With Our Three Babies

Chapter 277: Unsettled



Leaving the hotel, Victor strode towards the mountains, making a call to Nathan as he walked.

“Tell them to keep an eye out while searching. Olivia has gone into the mountains.”

On the other end, Nathan quickly agreed, marveling at how much Miss Prescott cared for Sophia. It was so late, yet a woman ventured into the deep forest to find Sophia.

After hanging up, Victor heard a timid voice behind him.

“Victor, is there any news about Sophia?”

Emma had searched nearby for a while but found no trace of anyone. Afraid to venture deeper into the forest, she returned, only to run into Victor at the hotel entrance, feeling extremely guilty.

Hearing her, Victor put away his phone and gave her a cold glance.

Emma was still in her red dress, not a speck of dust on it, and not a drop of sweat on her face, though her breathing was slightly hurried-perhaps out of fear of him.

Meeting Victor’s cold gaze, Emma’s heart tightened, and she spoke even more guiltily, “I’ve been searching all afternoon with no news. How about you?”

“Sophia went missing on her way to find Olivia. Did you tell Olivia that?” Victor asked, ignoring her question.

Emma’s face stiffened, visibly filled with panic.

How could this be… How did Victor know about this?

Seeing her expression, Victor understood and a flash of anger crossed his eyes. “You better pray nothing happens to them, or don’t blame me for disregarding our years of friendship!”

With that, he moved to walk past Emma.

Realizing Victor was truly angry this time, Emma panicked and grabbed his sleeve. “Victor, I didn’t mean to. When she came to the hotel this afternoon, I just shared my guess. I didn’t mean to blame her.”

Victor turned abruptly, his aura cold as ice. “You dare blame others? From start to finish, what does this have to do with her? You told my mother about this without permission, causing her worry. And then you made up such lies to provoke Olivia. What were you thinking?”

“I didn’t mean to. It’s my fault; I didn’t take good care of Sophia…” Emma struggled to breathe under his intimidating presence but tried to defend herself.

“It is indeed your fault!” Victor coldly shook off her hand. “Since Miss Thornton doesn’t intend to sincerely search for Sophia, then go back! Don’t waste my time here!”

Without another glance at Emma, he turned and left.

Nathan and his team were conducting a near-grid search in the mountains.

By ten o’clock at night, they still hadn’t found any trace of Sophia or Olivia.

Victor joined them and upon learning the news, his face turned even colder.

Standing beside Mr. Leer, Nathan felt the surrounding pressure intensify and was filled with worry.Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

It was so late and they were in the mountains. Miss Prescott and Sophia-a woman and a child-no one could rest easy.

“Mr. Leer, please go rest for a while. You’ve been at it all day,” Nathan cautiously suggested.

For the first time in a long while, he saw Mr. Leer looking so disheveled.

Victor still had dirt from planting trees in the morning on him. After searching the forest all night, his hair was messy and his face looked haggard, though his aura remained sharp.

Victor frowned and refused. “We’ll split up and search.”

With that, he turned and headed deeper into the forest.
