That Night My Boss Left Me With Our Three Babies

Sebastian followed his gaze and and indeed, he spotted the little girl they had encountered the previous day.

A slight furrow appeared on his handsome brow.

At that moment, Sophia, clapping along with the other children, noticed their gaze.

A barely perceptible excitement flickered in her watery eyes.

She never expected to meet the two boys here.

Although their encounter had been brief, she found herself drawn to them without quite understanding why.

However, just as she stared at them, Sebastian and Ethan had already averted their eyes.

The teacher intervened, breaking the silence. “Alright, you two, go sit down for now. There are two empty seats over there. Would you like to sit together?”

The teacher pointed to the two vacant seats next to Sophia.

Sebastian and Ethan hesitated for a moment but didn’t say anything. They obediently nodded and proceeded to take their seats.

As Sophia watched the two little boys approach her, her eyes brightened, brimming with anticipation.

But even though they were sitting right next to her, it seemed as if they didn’t recognize her. They didn’t even greet her.

Witnessing this, Sophia silently lowered her gaze, her disappointment palpable. She began absentmindedly twiddling her fingers, feeling a pang of sadness.

Unbeknownst to her, the two little boys had actually been paying attention to Sophia’s reaction all along. Seeing her crestfallen expression, they felt somewhat guilty.

“Daddy doesn’t want us anymore. He has another child with someone else and bullies Mommy. She’s a child of our bad Daddy. We can’t talk to her, or we’ll be betraying Mommy!”

Sebastian clenched his little fist, unsure if he was trying to convince himself or admonish his younger brother.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Upon hearing his brother’s words, Ethan nodded earnestly. “Yes, we can’t talk to her!”

And so, the two little boys sat through the entire class, sitting upright and not even glancing in Sophia’s direction.

Sophia keenly felt their coldness and didn’t dare to sneak a peek at them anymore.

After class, many little girls gathered around the two little boys, playing with them, complimenting their looks, and even giving them toys.

Ethan was lively and cheerful, joining in the fun with everyone.

Sebastian, on the other hand, was polite, composed, and friendly.

On the sidelines, Sophia saw the two little boys laughing, and she gained some courage. She wanted to approach them and extend a greeting.

However, the other kids formed a circle, even pushing her out of her seat.

One little girl even scowled at her and pushed her away, saying, “Get lost, mute girl! Why are you squeezing in? You can’t even speak, so don’t try to join in the fun!”

Caught off guard, Sophia was pushed off-balance and fell backward.

Everyone behind her quickly moved aside, but no one reached out to help her.

In her panic, Sophia tried to grab onto a nearby desk but missed, ending up falling down and hitting her delicate little hand on the corner of the table.

The pain was intense.

Sophia sat on the ground, her eyes reddened, and her brows slightly furrowed.

Her classmates merely stood by, observing the scene, with a few girls even covering their mouths, giggling with a sense of schadenfreude.

Sophia was typically reserved, and her speech impairment, coupled with her tendency to keep to herself, meant she rarely made friends.

However, she resembled a doll, which made many little boys like to play with her. They would treat her like a little princess, being gentle and caring toward her.

Those energetic boys would become well-behaved when they approached her, which naturally displeased the little girls.

Especially Ava, who had pushed Sophia earlier, she seized every opportunity to bully her.
