Chapter 256: Soft-hearted to a Fault
After arranging the accommodations, it was already evening. Miss Lee took the parents to the restaurant prepared for them in the botanical garden.
Olivia took the two children to get their meals.
There were quite a few botanical garden employees in the restaurant, far more than when they got off the bus earlier. Sophia didn’t like it at all and followed closely behind Olivia, never taking her eyes off her.
Olivia noticed Sophia’s gaze, turned around, and saw Sophia’s timid expression. Her heart ached, so she had Sebastian and Ethan hold hands while she freed up a hand to hold Sophia’s.
Sophia looked at Olivia’s outstretched hand and, without hesitation, grabbed it. Her eyes curved into a smile, and her timidity vanished without a trace.
Victor, worried about Sophia, had been following her. Seeing Olivia holding Sophia’s hand, he followed them with mixed feelings.
When getting the food, Olivia had to carry portions for four people, which was a bit difficult.
Just as she was thinking of putting some back and coming back to queue again, a large hand reached out from behind.
“Let me help,” Victor said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Olivia paused for a moment. Looking at the children beside her, she thought they must be hungry too, so she didn’t refuse. She handed the tray to Victor and continued to get the next portion, eventually getting Victor’s portion as well.
During the meal, Sophia stuck close to Olivia.
Olivia sat at a table with the three children, while Victor sat next to Sophia.
With her daddy on one side and Olivia on the other, Sophia was very happy.
The two children sitting across from them looked at Victor beside Sophia with some resentment.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
To an outsider, it might seem like they were one big family!
But unfortunately, this bad daddy was going to marry another woman and leave them and mommy behind.
Thinking of this, the two children were very upset and didn’t want to look at Victor anymore. They just buried their heads in their food.
“Eat,” Sophia said with a smile as she scooped some food with a small spoon and placed it on Sebastian and Ethan’s plates.
The two children paused for a moment. When they looked up, they saw Sophia seriously scooping food from her own plate for both Victor and Olivia. She looked at them innocently and said, “Daddy, eat. Olivia, eat.”
Seeing the small spoon extended in front of her, Olivia’s heart melted completely.
If her little daughter had survived back then, she would probably be as cute and sensible as Sophia now…
Victor’s eyes darkened at Sophia’s actions.
After the last news broke out, his mother had come to their home and talked about him and Olivia.
At that time, Sophia had asked expectantly if he was going to marry Olivia, saying she liked Olivia as her mommy.
He didn’t know if it was his imagination, but he always felt that whenever Sophia interacted with Olivia, she treated Olivia like her mother.
If Sophia knew that the Olivia she liked was actually her biological mother…
Thinking of this, Victor glanced complexly at Sophia beside him and Olivia who was taking care of her.
Olivia noticed Victor’s complicated gaze and looked up at him in confusion.
Their eyes met briefly before Victor furrowed his brows slightly and looked away without saying anything.
