Back then, Wenham and Darcie barely knew each other and had little interaction, but Trevor had seen Darcie many times. As a child, Trevor was very attached to his mother, especially after she became pregnant. He would often insist on accompanying her, even though his father worried it might tire her out.

Trevor frequently visited his mother at work. The people at the company were kind to him, especially Darcie. When his mother was busy, Darcie would help take care of him. Trevor was a shy child and didn’t initially notice Darcie’s kindness. She would often give him treats and toys, some familiar and others new, but he didn’t grow closer to her because of these things.

Their relationship remained distant until one day Darcie disappeared for several weeks. When she returned, she was much thinner and cried upon seeing his mother. Later, he learned that her husband had died unexpectedly, leaving the baby she was carrying without a father.

His mother told him not to be so distant with Darcie, saying, “She’s pregnant, just like me, and you’re such a sweet child. Aunt Darcie loves kids and wants to be close to you.”

Trevor listened to his mother and felt sorry for Darcie, so he wasn’t as resistant when she offered him things again.
