That Night My Boss Left Me With Our Three Babies

Chapter 74: Not Driving Them Away



Victor furrowed his brow, taken aback by the unexpected surge of anger in the little girl.

Charlotte’s words struck a chord with him, prompting him to approach the door and speak gently, “Sophia, open the door. Daddy wants to have a conversation with you.”

As his words fell, there was a muffled sound from behind the door.

Evidently, Sophia had expressed her resistance by throwing something directly at it.

Victor paused for a moment, then spoke again in a gentler tone. “Tell Daddy what you want, open the door, and we can discuss it properly, okay?”

Another loud bang came from the door.

It was Charlotte’s first time seeing Miss Sophia like this, and considering Miss Sophia’s situation, she was afraid something unexpected might happen inside. She suggested, “Mr. Leer, I think we should just go in directly. I’m worried about Miss Sophia…”

Victor hesitated for a moment but eventually nodded in agreement.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Soon, Charlotte brought a spare key, and the two of them entered the room.

As they stepped inside, they were taken aback by the chaotic mess that engulfed the entire space.

The precious dolls that Sophia had always cherished were scattered all over the floor, and near the entrance were several delicate music boxes, two of which had cracks.

It became evident that these were the objects that had been thrown at the door.

Amidst the chaos, Sophia curled up in a corner, hugging her legs, her gaze vacant. Tears streamed streamed uncontrollably down her face, and there were two unfamiliar and somewhat ugly dolls beside her.

Upon seeing Victor and Charlotte enter, Sophia unconsciously shrank back, lowered her head, and refused to meet their gaze.

Witnessing Sophia’s state, Victor felt a pang of heartache. He regretted his actions and moved forward, wanting to embrace the little girl to comfort her.

As Sophia sensed his approach, she suddenly lifted her head, her eyes full of resistance. With both hands supporting her body, she hurriedly moved backward.

Seeing this, Victor paused. “Don’t be afraid. Daddy is wrong.”

But it was as if the little girl hadn’t heard him. Finally, she pressed her entire self against the wall, turned her body to the side, and buried her head deeply.

They couldn’t see her expression, only the rise and fall of her body as she sobbed.

For a moment, Victor felt at a loss.

Charlotte approached with concern. “Mr. Leer, let me try.”

After speaking, she cautiously moved closer to Sophia and reached out her hand.

This time, Sophia didn’t hide anymore.

Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief, gently picked Sophia up, and patted her back to comfort her. “Miss Sophia, what’s wrong? Tell me, okay? Were you bullied by your classmates at school?”

Sophia continued to sob without responding, leaving Charlotte at a loss. She held Sophia tightly, trying her best to provide comfort.

“Is it because the twins didn’t go to school?” Victor spoke in a deep voice.

Sophia’s eyes brightened slightly, and she turned her head away while still sobbing.

Charlotte, noticing Miss Sophia’s reaction, subtly signaled her own Mr. Leer with her eyes, encouraging him to follow Sophia’s lead.

Victor sighed; he hadn’t expected the little girl to rely on those two classmates to this extent.

Or perhaps it was because the three kids shared the same father but had different mothers, resulting in this kind of connection between them?

“I understand. You don’t want them to leave kindergarten.” Victor acknowledged, acknowledging Sophia’s feelings.

Only then did Sophia look at him, her face full of grievances.

Seeing his daughter like this, Victor had no choice but to compromise. “I promise you, I won’t make them leave.”

The little girl continued to stare at him, her eyes filled with accusation.

Victor understood her meaning and spoke gently, “They didn’t go to kindergarten today, but they just took a day off. The teacher hasn’t talked to them about expulsion.”
