Chapter 388: Where Did the Two Children Come From
However…
Ever since Isaac learned that Olivia was Victor’s former wife who had left without a word years ago, he had a suspicion in his heart. Now, he couldn’t help but ask.
“What is the relationship between Dr. Prescott and Sophia? I’ve never seen Sophia rely on anyone like this.”
Although he didn’t say it explicitly, Victor understood his implication and responded lightly, “Sophia is her daughter.”
Despite having suspected it, hearing Victor’s confirmation left Isaac stunned for a moment.
The timing of Olivia’s departure, Sophia’s age, and Sophia’s inexplicable dependence on Olivia all made him think that Sophia might be Olivia’s daughter.
But every time he saw Olivia interacting with Sophia, Dr. Prescott seemed to treat the child as just a familiar little friend. Because of this, Isaac never dared to think too much about it.
Hearing Victor’s admission now only made him more confused.
So, Dr. Prescott still doesn’t know about this? She doesn’t know that Sophia is her own daughter?Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Isaac couldn’t understand it and asked hesitantly, “Dr. Prescott seems unaware of this?”
Victor nodded noncommittally, “There seems to have been some mistake in between. Neither she nor Sophia knows.”
Isaac found it increasingly absurd, “Then why don’t you tell them?”
If Dr. Prescott knew that Sophia was her daughter, he thought that maybe, for Sophia’s sake, she might choose to remarry Victor.
It wouldn’t have to be so complicated as it is now.
Victor’s eyes darkened, “Because she has two sons with her.”
At first, it was because of the two children with that woman, and he always thought Olivia knew Sophia was her daughter.
Later, he realized there was a misunderstanding, but there was no suitable opportunity to explain.
Now, Olivia was avoiding him as much as possible. Telling her this would probably only add to her troubles.
Isaac knew Olivia had two children but had never seen them. He just echoed, “We don’t know what Dr. Prescott has been through all these years or where those two children came from. I’m genuinely curious.”
Victor remained silent.
The background of those two children was still a mystery to him.
Seeing his silence, Isaac understood that his brother didn’t want to continue this topic. Since his suspicions had been confirmed, he timely shifted the conversation back to business, “No matter what, Dr. Prescott is Sophia’s biological mother. For Sophia’s sake, I must help her! Don’t worry, I’ll take care of Dr. Prescott!”
Victor’s expression softened slightly, and he nodded at him, “Thanks.”
Isaac smiled, “If you really want to thank me, you can pay for this meal.”
Victor tugged at his lips and agreed noncommittally.
Seeing that it was getting late and they had finished discussing business, they got up to leave.
Downstairs, a waiter approached them about the bill. Isaac raised an eyebrow and replied, “Put it on Mr. Leer’s tab.”
The waiter glanced at Victor for confirmation. Seeing him nod, the waiter bowed respectfully and watched them leave.
Back at the Whitaker’s residence, Isaac remembered his promise to Victor to help Olivia and didn’t dare delay. He contacted several herbal suppliers who were on good terms with Seacrest and the Whitaker Group and under their protection. With a mix of threats and incentives, he got them to agree to consider cooperating with Virus Lab.
