Luca sighed when she thought that Tommy would have to go home soon. She sat down next to him and watched the cartoon with him.

“Tommy, has your Daddy been very busy recently?” She tried to find out something from Tommy while they watched the cartoon together.

“Daddy is always very busy,” Tommy answered, though his eyes were transfixed on the television. He did not suspect anything.

Luca hugged a pillow in her arms and continued to ask, “What about your Mommy? Does she know that you’re here to have dinner every day?”

“Mommy?” Tommy thought about his mother and shook his head. “I didn’t tell her. Daddy said that she’s traveling overseas and told us not to disturb her while she’s having fun.”

Luca knew that Luke had deceived the children, but they did not seem to miss her.

She could tell that the impostor Bianca did not love or care for the children. If the impostor Bianca had shown them the least bit of care, things would not have turned out this way.

Tommy turned his head and asked Luca, “Ms. Luca, do you think that I should tell Mommy about this?”

Luca shook her head. “No. I was only curious. You ought to listen to your Daddy. I’m just wondering if you and your elder siblings miss your Mommy because she’s gone for so long.”

“We don’t miss her at all,” Tommy answered without thinking. “Mommy doesn’t like any of us, and she won’t take care of us, unlike the Mommies of other kids.”

Luca’s heart wrenched when she heard Tommy answer the question so readily.

A child as young as him should have been cared for and protected by his parents. Abel’s plan had robbed the three children of the motherly love they deserve.

Luke would not be able to make up for it no matter how hard he tried!

Luca stroked the child’s head. “Maybe your Mommy has her reasons.”

doubtfully. The adults had never explained anything to them, and he did not know what those reasons were. “Ms. Luca, you’re so much nicer to me than my Mommy is. She always neglects us, and she would often throw scary tantrums. Daddy is the only person she cares for. If Daddy isn’t home, she won’t be home either. It wasn’t like this before. Mommy used to treat us like how you’re treating me now. Whenever Lanie and Rainie came home from school, she would prepare a plate of fruit for them so that they could eat some fruit when they finished their homework. But Daddy said that Mommy got very sick one day, and
