That Night My Boss Left Me With Our Three Babies

Upon returning from Whitaker’s Estate, the two little boys were already waiting at home.

When Olivia entered, the little ones uncharacteristically did not rush to greet her. Instead, they sat listlessly on the sofa, lost in thought.

Olivia glanced at Emily in confusion.

Emily sighed helplessly, “They were like this when I picked them up in the evening.”

The two little boys had been playing with Sophia earlier, but when they saw Emily, none of the three children could muster a smile.

Throughout the journey home, the two boys remained sullen and had yet to recover.

Olivia had been filled with anticipation for the Hargraves family’s free clinic, but seeing the little ones like this, all her excitement turned into worry.

“What happened today? Did you have a disagreement with your friends?” Olivia asked gently as she sat down beside them.

Hearing her voice, the little ones looked up at her with sad expressions.

Seeing their faces, Olivia felt a pang of heartache. “What happened? Tell Mommy.”

Ethan asked softly, “Mommy, why didn’t you pick us up tonight?”

Sebastian also looked at her with pursed lips.

Olivia was taken aback. “Mommy… had something to take care of tonight. The trouble at the research institute was resolved with someone’s help, and Mommy needed to thank them.”

She hesitated before asking, “Are you upset just because Mommy didn’t pick you up?”

The two boys nodded.

Mommy had dropped them off this morning, so they thought she would pick them up in the evening as well.

Not only did they think so, but Sophia also expected it. She had been eagerly waiting all day.

However, it wasn’t Mommy who came in the evening.

When Emily arrived, Sophia’s eyes were moist.

Seeing Sophia like that made the boys unhappy as well.

They always knew that Sophia liked Mommy. Although Sophia still played with them at kindergarten, they could tell she wasn’t happy.

Today, they finally saw Mommy. They saw how reluctant Sophia was to part with her in the morning.

So, in the evening, they shared Sophia’s disappointment.

Olivia didn’t quite understand why the little ones were so downcast.

She had been busy with work recently, and it was always Emily and Isabelle who picked them up. They hadn’t acted like this before…

“Mommy, now that the research institute’s issue is resolved, are we going abroad soon?” Ethan asked cautiously.

He remembered that Mommy had said once their work in the country was done, they would go abroad.

Then they wouldn’t see Sophia anymore, and Sophia wouldn’t see Mommy either.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Thinking about this made him lower his head sadly.

Hearing him mention going abroad, Olivia began to understand. She gently patted his head. “Not yet. The trip abroad will be delayed for a while.”

Upon hearing this, the boys’ eyes lit up. “Really? Why?”

Olivia smiled. “Mommy has other things to do, so we’ll stay here for a while longer. You need to take good care of Sophia at kindergarten.”

The little ones nodded vigorously, their sadness vanishing.

As long as they stayed in the country, Sophia would definitely see Mommy again!
