Chapter 4 Never Return

Olivia's mind flashed with a guess... Could this little girl be mute?

Thinking of this possibility, she softly said, "Give me your hand, okay?"

As she spoke, she reached out her hand.

The little girl timidly gazed at her, her expression softening upon hearing her comforting voice.

After hesitating for a while, she tentatively stretched her hand towards Olivia.

The little girl's touch was gentle, emitting a subtle fragrance.

Olivia's heart softened, and she couldn't help but think of the girl who had passed away.

If she had grown up well, she would have been this age!

With this thought, a hint of tenderness and regret appeared in Olivia's eyes.

Although the little girl knew better than to approach strangers, she felt an unexplainable urge to draw closer. And this lady was undeniably beautiful...

Isabelle couldn't help but exclaim when she saw this scene, "This little girl is so delicate-looking, her appearance is on par with our two precious boys!"

After Olivia finished checking, she nodded, "I think she got separated from her family. Let's take her to the police station and see if we can contact her family."

As soon as she finished speaking, the little girl suddenly tugged at Olivia's hand.

Olivia looked down, puzzled.

It was evident that the little girl was resistant to the idea.

Seeing the pitiful look on the little girl's face, Olivia felt her heart shatter.

"We don't have to go to the police station."

She crouched down and negotiated with the little girl, "Do you have your mom and dad's phone number? I can call them and have them come pick you up."

Upon hearing this, the little girl stopped shaking her head, but a hint of sadness appeared in her beautiful eyes.

After waiting for her response for a while, Olivia thought she didn't understand and was about to firmly decide to take her to the police station, but the little girl made a move again.

Olivia watched as she took out a pen and a sticky note from her pocket, and wrote a series of numbers on it, followed by the word "Daddy," and handed the sticky note to Olivia.

Olivia reached out and took the sticky note, dialing the little girl's father's number according to the digits written on it.

"She really is a little mute."

Sebastian and Ethan whispered softly.

Olivia stopped and glanced at her two sons, warning, "Don't say that."

The two little ones immediately stood straight, smiling sympathetically at the little girl.

The little girl looked at them and instinctively moved closer to Olivia, clutching onto her skirt. Unaware of this, Olivia double-checked the number and pressed the dial button...

In Leer Manor, Victor walked through the villa's gate with a stern face and asked, "Has Sophia returned?"

The butler, wearing a worried expression, greeted him, saying, "No, we haven't seen Miss Sophia at all."

Just as he finished speaking, the butler sensed an oppressive aura emanating from his young master.

Victor's thin lips formed a cold, severe curve, and his brow furrowed tightly.

Could something have really happened?

At the thought of this possibility, a surge of anger gathered between Victor's eyebrows, as if he wanted to destroy everything in the world.

At that moment, a glamorous woman hurriedly entered from outside, her tone filled with anxiety. "Victor, I heard Sophia is missing. Is it true? Have you found her?"

The one who arrived was Emma Thornton!

The woman Victor once wanted to marry!

But now, Victor's expression was rather imposing. "You've come at the right time. Did you say something to Sophia this afternoon? Why did she run away from home without any reason?"

Emma was taken aback by his questioning, looking surprised. Then she stared at him in astonishment and protested. "Victor, what do you mean? Are you suspecting that I did something to Sophia?"

Her voice carried a hint of hurt, and her teary eyes reflected innocence. "Victor, I swear I didn't do anything! These years, I've treated Sophia as my own daughter, and you know that. How could I do anything to make her run away from home?"

As she spoke, her expression carried a tinge of grievance, her eyes reddened, portraying utmost innocence.

In the afternoon, she did tell Sophia that once she married Victor, they would have even cuter children.

By then, Victor wouldn't like Sophia anymore!

Because Sophia was mute, Emma wasn't worried that she would report the conversation to Victor.

She just didn't expect that Sophia would actually run away from home!

Good riddance!

Emma secretly wished that little girl would die outside, so that she would not get in her way anymore!
