The Children's Godmother

“I wasn't feeling well, so I didn't get to finish my work today," Luca smiled and explained. “It's just some translation work. It's not a big deal."

Nina shook her head and muttered, "Translating is one of the most nerve-racking jobs. It's a shame I don't know how to speak Russian. Luca, you're amazing."

"When you live in an unfamiliar environment for a long time, you'll naturally pick up the local language," Luca said as she opened the document and laptop. Luca did not undergo any systematic training. She just learned the language herself during her three years on the Island of Despair.

During that period, she often asked Eler and Amur to teach her Russian.

Luca knew very well that mastery of language was an essential skill to survive in such a horrible environment. She had to know what the others were talking about behind her to be able to have the chance to survive.

That was why she spent a year mastering basic Russian phrases. She then spent two years constantly picking up new words to master the language.

Luca recalled the many difficulties she had gone through during those three years while placing the laptop on the armrest of the couch. She found a position that would not put pressure on her wound and began working.

Nina was lost in thought as she listened to her.

What Luca said did not seem like living but surviving...

Her words sounded as though she had gone through a lot of inhuman experiences.

Nina recalled what Luca did yesterday. She could not help but wonder about Luca's past. Perhaps it was not something an ordinary person like her could imagine.

As Luca had started to work and the kids were also busy with their homework, Nina did not say anything more. She picked up her phone and replied to Percy's messages.

Although Percy was a little unhappy that Nina would not return home today after not going back yesterday as well, Luca had indeed been a big help to them. That was why Percy did not ask Nina to go home even though he was dissatisfied with it.

Half an hour later, the maid had already finished preparing dinner. Luca and Nina brought the kids over to the dining room to have dinner together.
