That Night My Boss Left Me With Our Three Babies

Early the next morning, as soon as Olivia got up, she saw the message Harold had sent the night before: “Are you free tomorrow? Let’s have a meal together.”

Olivia thought about her work schedule for the day and replied, “How about lunch? Near our research institute.”

Harold quickly agreed.

Just around noon, Olivia received a call from Harold.

“Are you done with work? I’m waiting for you at the entrance of your research institute,” Harold’s voice sounded as soon as the call connected.

Olivia was discussing a recent project with Gabriel. Seeing her take the call, Gabriel tactfully paused and waited nearby.

Hearing that Harold had arrived, Olivia instinctively glanced at Gabriel opposite her and apologized to Harold, “Senior, please wait a moment. I have a few things to wrap up here. Or you can come in and wait if you prefer.”

Harold laughed and declined, “No need, I’ll wait at the entrance. Take your time.”

Olivia agreed and hung up the phone, then continued discussing the project with Gabriel.

These past few days, Olivia had been focused on preparing for the Hargraves family free clinic event. With the research institute’s work already on track and the medicinal supply issues resolved, Olivia decided to temporarily hand over the institute’s affairs to Gabriel.

After a lengthy discussion, they finally completed the handover.

Olivia wanted to give a few more instructions, but Gabriel smiled and said, “I’ve been at the research institute for quite some time now. Recently, I’ve been handling things with you, so you can rest assured. Leave everything to me. Isn’t someone waiting for you? Go on!”

Hearing this, Olivia hesitated for a moment, then smiled and nodded.

Indeed, Gabriel had been working at the research institute longer than she had. Since her arrival, they had been managing the institute together. There was no need for her to worry so much.

“Let’s not talk too much then. You should also go have lunch. Let’s go out together.”Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

Olivia picked up her bag and waited for Gabriel.

Although the research institute had a cafeteria, it was rare for anyone to eat there. Most people preferred nearby restaurants, and Gabriel was no exception.

Gabriel hesitated for a few seconds, thinking that going out together would inevitably mean seeing Harold.

But seeing Olivia waiting for him, he hesitated for a moment before finally walking over to her side. They left the research institute together.

As Harold had said, just at the entrance of the research institute, Olivia saw him waiting there.

Harold stood outside his car, seemingly afraid she wouldn’t see him. When he saw her coming out, he waved and signaled her to come over.

Olivia greeted Gabriel and quickly walked over.

Watching her leave, a hint of gloom flashed in Gabriel’s eyes before quickly returning to calm. He politely nodded at Harold.

Harold smiled warmly in return.

The two men exchanged a brief greeting.

When Olivia reached him, Harold glanced at Gabriel, who had already turned and walked away, and curiously asked, “Who was that?”

Olivia smiled and introduced him, “He’s my colleague at the research institute and an excellent physician. We worked together abroad before. I’m not sure if you’ve met him.”

Harold nodded slightly, “Let’s get in the car.”

He couldn’t help but feel that there was something strange about the way that man looked at Olivia.

But he couldn’t quite put his finger on what it was.
