That Night My Boss Left Me With Our Three Babies

Chapter 265: She Refuses to be Hugged



As they spoke, they had already planted the second tree.

Olivia stood up and took the third sapling, securing it in the pit.

Suddenly, a commotion arose not far away.

“Miss Thornton, what brings you here?” Miss Lee, who was wandering among the children, was surprised to see someone approaching from a distance as she reached the entrance.

Emma, dressed in a red dress with wavy hair cascading over her chest and wearing sunglasses, looked very elegant.This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

She walked up to Miss Lee, took off her sunglasses, and scanned the crowd with narrowed eyes. “Victor mentioned there was a parent-child activity at the kindergarten today. I was worried about Sophia, so I rushed over early. Where are they?”

Miss Lee pointed in Olivia’s direction without much thought. “Over there, with Sebastian and Ethan. Sophia always plays well with them and didn’t want to be separated even while planting trees.”

Hearing this, Emma’s eyes turned colder. She thanked Miss Lee curtly and strode towards Olivia.

Because it was a tree-planting activity, all the parents had changed into sportswear. Only Emma was wearing a dress, and a striking brick-red one at that, drawing everyone’s attention.

Some who recognized her had already turned to look at Olivia, anticipating some drama.

Olivia also noticed the red dress approaching them and her expression tightened.

Last night, when Emma called, Olivia had anticipated that Emma wouldn’t let this matter go easily. She hadn’t expected Emma to come here specifically.

“Victor, there you are.” Emma walked up to them gracefully and greeted them in a sweet voice.

After speaking, she looked at Olivia condescendingly. “Isn’t this Miss Prescott? Long time no see.”

The atmosphere among them grew tense.

Everyone watched them with varied expressions.

Olivia nodded distantly at her. “Long time no see.”

“What are you doing here?” Victor frowned at Emma, a hint of displeasure in his eyes.

Emma remained unfazed and used Lily as an excuse. “Your mother said you brought Sophia to participate in the class activity. She was worried Sophia wouldn’t handle this environment well and also concerned that you, as a man, might find it inconvenient to take care of Sophia. So she asked me to come check on things.”

Mentioning Lily made Victor’s frown deepen.

His engagement with Emma had dragged on only because of his mother’s insistence.

Otherwise, it would have been called off long ago!

Emma ignored his anger and squatted down to look at Sophia, who was crouching with Sebastian and Ethan. She opened her arms to the child. “Sophia, come let me hug you.”

Sophia pouted and shrank back behind the two boys.

She didn’t like this bad woman at all. The bad woman had even hit her before. She wouldn’t let her hug her!

Seeing the child’s resistance, Emma’s eyes darkened slightly, but her smile became even more sincere. She looked at the child apologetically. “Sophia, are you still mad at me for last time? I know I was wrong. I was impulsive last time. I apologize to you. Will you forgive me?”

Sophia pressed her lips together and shook her head silently.

Being repeatedly rejected by Sophia, a trace of coldness flashed through Emma’s heart.

This ungrateful little brat! If it weren’t for all these people around, she would definitely teach her a lesson!
