That Night My Boss Left Me With Our Three Babies

Chapter 5: A Familiar Voice



“Hopefully, it’s as you said,” Victor responded, his voice tinged with skepticism.

After a pause, Victor withdrew his gaze and turned to Nathan, who was standing beside him. “Any updates from the police?” he asked, his tone filled with urgency.

Nathan’s tone was heavy. “Not yet.”

After speaking, he glanced cautiously at Victor, concern evident in his eyes. “Could Miss Sophia have been kidnapped?”

Miss Sophia, the beloved daughter of their esteemed master, was held in high regard within the Leer family. Over the years, she had attracted the attention of many individuals and had even faced a close call with abduction in the past.

Upon hearing Nathan’s question, Victor’s eyes darkened abruptly, and he spoke with stern determination, “Increase the manpower, expand the search area. We must find her today!”

“Yes!” Nathan replied loudly, sensing the intensity of their master’s anger.

Just as he was about to turn and leave, Victor’s phone rang.

At this moment, Victor had no patience for phone calls. Impatiently, he took out his phone, intending to hang up, but he noticed that it was an unfamiliar number.

Recalling Nathan’s mention of a potential lead, Victor’s temples throbbed, and he answered the call with a cold expression.

As soon as the call connected, a soft and gentle female voice came through, “Hello.”

Upon hearing this voice, Victor squinted his eyes, a hint of suspicion flashing in his gaze.

This voice was almost identical to that woman!

The figure he saw at the airport in the afternoon flashed through his mind…

“Hello? Is anyone there?” Olivia waited for a response after a while, puzzled.

Victor collected his thoughts and gave a brief reply, “Yes.”

The single syllable was clearly insufficient for Olivia to discern anything.

Relieved to hear a response, Olivia let out a sigh. “Hello. Here’s the situation. I found a little girl, and she gave me this number. Are you her father? Do you have time to come and pick her up?”

The woman’s voice echoed clearly in Victor’s ear. The more she spoke, the colder Victor’s eyes became.

When her voice finally ceased, a layer of frost had already coated the depths of his eyes.

It really is her!

Even after so many years, he would never mistake this voice!

Olivia!

So, you’ve finally returned!

Victor clenched his teeth, his voice lowering as he pressed on with his inquiry,

“Where are you?”

Olivia instinctively replied, “We’re at Drunkard’s Retreat. We’re waiting here with the girl. Can you come directly to the restaurant to pick her up?”

“Okay, I’ll be right there,” Victor said and hung up the phone, telling Nathan, , his voice tense,

“Get the car, we’re going to Drunkard’s Retreat.”

Nathan didn’t understand the sudden shift in his master’s demeanor, but he quickly complied.

As Olivia looked at the darkened screen of her phone, she felt an inexplicable sense of unease.

The man’s voice just now sounded hoarse and strangely familiar, but Olivia couldn’t remember where she had heard it before and gave up thinking about it.

“Are you hungry?”

Isabelle, who had been waiting outside for a long time, couldn’t bear it any longer. “I’m starving. Let’s go in and eat. When her father arrives, we’ll send this little girl out.”

Olivia smiled at her and said, “Okay, let’s go in first.”

Then she squatted down and looked into the little girl’s eyes, seeking her opinion. “Are you hungry? I can take you inside to eat. Your dad should be on his way, and when he arrives, I will bring you out again. Is that okay?”

The little girl stared at her for a few seconds, her big eyes shining with hesitation.

“If you don’t want to, I can stay here with you.” Olivia patiently reassured her.

Upon hearing this, Sebastian and Ethan chimed in together, “We’ll stay here with Mommy!”

Isabelle sighed, “So, am I the only one starving? Little girl, we’re not bad people. Who would bring you to such a nice restaurant if we were bad? Your stomach must be empty too, right? Don’t be stubborn, come with us, okay?”

Everyone’s gaze fell upon the little girl, waiting for her decision.

Sebastian and Ethan were also hungry, eagerly anticipating her decision.

The little girl bit her lip and took two steps towards Olivia, reaching out to hold onto her sleeve and nodding.

Seeing this, Olivia smiled and patted her head, holding the little girl’s hand that was on her sleeve. She stood up and led her towards the restaurant.

Isabelle held Sebastian and Ethan’s hands as they followed behind. Seeing the little girl walking closely by her best friend’s side, Isabelle couldn’t help but make a teasing remark, “This little girl was cautious of us just a moment ago, and now she’s suddenly so close to you.”

Then she sighed and added, “In this world, good-looking people really have an advantage. They can capture the hearts of people of all ages and genders.”This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
