That Night My Boss Left Me With Our Three Babies

Mr. Lee, although focused on academics, was surrounded by people in the pharmaceutical industry, many of whom relied on his expertise for their livelihood.

When Mr. Lee spoke, it sounded like an apology to Olivia, but in reality, it was a way of putting pressure on them.

Olivia naturally understood the underlying meaning of Mr. Lee’s words and felt deeply grateful.

Clearly, Mr. Lee’s words had an effect, as the remaining people began to chime in.

“I’ve long heard Mr. Whitaker praise Dr. Prescott’s exceptional abilities. Seeing Mr. Lee appreciate Dr. Prescott so much, we have no more reservations!”

“I didn’t expect Dr. Prescott to be so young and a woman at that, leading a research institute. Truly a remarkable woman!”

Compliments kept ringing in her ears.

Olivia knew well that these people were flattering her out of respect for Isaac and Mr. Lee, but regardless, the cooperation was now confirmed.

With this in mind, Olivia patiently responded to each compliment.

As the host of the dinner, Mr. Shelby couldn’t stay in one place for too long. Before leaving, he invited Olivia, “Dr. Prescott, would you like to join me? I can introduce you to some people in Sylvania City’s medical community.”

Olivia agreed, stood up, and greeted Mr. Lee before following Mr. Shelby back to the banquet hall.

Harold stayed behind to accompany Mr. Lee.

It was evident that Mr. Shelby held some status in Sylvania City’s pharmaceutical industry. As soon as he appeared, many people came forward to greet him.

Mr. Shelby responded to each greeting and introduced Olivia to everyone.

After some socializing, Olivia felt a bit tired and expressed her desire to rest for a while.

Mr. Shelby agreed with a smile and escorted her to a corner sofa before turning back to the crowd.

Finally having some peace, Olivia instinctively scanned the crowd.

She didn’t see Victor.

After retracting her gaze, Olivia realized she had subconsciously been looking for Victor in the crowd, feeling a strange sensation inside.

She didn’t know why she had such an instinctive reaction.

Perhaps she was just afraid the man would come looking for her again…

Olivia comforted herself with mixed feelings.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Suddenly, a shadow fell over her.

Olivia’s heart tightened inexplicably, thinking her worries had come true. She looked up with some panic on her face.

Seeing the person in front of her, she gradually calmed down and distantly asked, “Who are you?”

A tall young man stood before her, his broad figure almost completely blocking her view.

Seeing her look at him, the man smiled and raised his glass in greeting, introducing himself, “Hello, my name is Wesley Kemp, the youngest son of the Kemp family. I wonder if I have the honor of making your acquaintance, Miss Prescott?”

The Kemp family had some reputation in Sylvania City, so Wesley didn’t elaborate much about himself. After speaking, he confidently looked at the woman before him.

He had arrived late and saw Olivia just as Mr. Shelby was taking her around to socialize.

Wesley overheard some conversations and was impressed by Olivia’s capabilities and beauty, feeling an itch in his heart.

Seeing her alone now, he eagerly approached her.

Olivia wasn’t very familiar with the power dynamics in Sylvania City and was still shaken by her earlier thoughts. She really wasn’t in the mood for more socializing. Hearing Wesley’s words, she merely smiled distantly and said, “Sorry, I’m only here in Sylvania City for work and will be leaving soon. So, I don’t think I have time to make friends.”
