That Night My Boss Left Me With Our Three Babies

Chapter 61: The Little Mute Learns to Speak



Olivia observed as Victor’s car vanished from her sight before she guided the two young boys back into the villa, her countenance filled with seriousness.

The children understood that their mother had something important to share with them, so they attentively fixed their gaze upon her.

“Sebastian, Ethan, listen carefully. From now on, no matter whom you encounter, it is crucial that you refrain from casually revealing our family’s circumstances, particularly… the fact that you don’t have a father!” Olivia’s head throbbed as she recollected recent events.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

Had she not intervened in time, Victor, being astute, would have undoubtedly grown suspicious!

Sebastian and Ethan looked at her in confusion, “Why? It’s true that we don’t have a father!”

Olivia’s headache intensified.

She couldn’t possibly disclose to these two young boys that her concern stemmed from the fear of their biological father searching for them, could she?

After a moment of silence, Olivia hastily devised an excuse. “Because there are unscrupulous individuals who are drawn to children without fathers. They know that mommy might not be able to protect you from them. What if they were to take you away?”

Upon hearing this, the two highly intelligent kids exchanged a glance. They recognized that their mother’s reasoning was feeble, yet reluctantly, they momentarily believed her. “Understood, mommy.”

Olivia finally breathed a sigh of relief, picked up her bag, and took them to the research institute.

After leaving Olivia’s residence, although Sophia’s tears had ceased, she clearly remained in a sullen mood. Throughout the journey, she pouted and stared out the window, seemingly oblivious to Victor’s presence.

Victor had always been unable to do anything about her. Seeing this, he sighed inwardly and said in a deep voice, “Are you still angry with Daddy? Daddy apologizes to you. Daddy was wrong before, shouldn’t have stopped you from making friends. But no matter what happens, you can’t just run away from home every time. You need to communicate with Daddy properly.”

Sophia turned to look at him, her gaze no longer fixated outside the window. She merely lowered her head quietly and focused on her small feet.

A hint of helplessness flashed in Victor’s eyes as he reached out and caressed the top of her head. “In the future, if something happens, you have to learn to express yourself. You can’t keep writing all the time because sometimes writing may not accurately convey your emotions and can easily lead to misunderstandings.”

Sophia shook her head, shaking off his hand from her head. Her face exuded reluctance as she clutched tightly onto her backpack, which contained a small notebook.

Witnessing his daughter’s expression, Victor furrowed his brow slightly but refrained from saying anything further.

Over the years, there had been rumors circulating outside that his daughter was mute.

Victor had never addressed these claims publicly.

Sophia was never mute. In fact, she began speaking at an early age.

However, she later developed autism and gradually became averse to speaking. Most of the time, she used pen and paper to convey her thoughts, even in front of him, she was reluctant to speak.

Despite his helplessness, Victor had gradually come to accept it, but deep down, he still yearned for his little girl to lead a normal life.

Earlier, those two little boys mentioned that Sophia didn’t have many friends at kindergarten, presumably because of her unwillingness to speak…

The journey continued in silence.

When they arrived back at the estate, Sophia walked ahead with her head down.

Victor leisurely slowed his pace and followed behind her, entering the mansion together.

“Finally, you’re back!”

As soon as they entered, the voice of his mother resounded through the living room.

Victor appeared surprised as he glanced in the direction of the jovial expressions on his parents’ and Emma’s faces, all centered around Sophia.
