Luke saw the tears in her eyes. He knew she was worried about Queenie.

He secretly let out a sigh. She was so worried about Queenie, but she still refused to reveal the truth. What did the Island of Despair have on her to make her guard this secret?

"I'll do my best to minimize the harm from the outside world," Luke reassured her. He wanted to shout to the world that Luca was his beloved wife, but the threat of the Island of Despair loomed, preventing him from doing so.

"I believe you, but the most important thing is to comfort Mrs. Norman's emotions. I don't want her to have any problems because of this," replied Luca, continuing showing her concern for Queenie in front of him.

"Okay." Luke leaned forward and looked into her teary eyes. He wanted to pull her into his arms.

Before he could do so, a tender voice suddenly interrupted their moment.

"Daddy, Ms. Luca, I want some water," Tommy's voice came from the kitchen door.

Luke's hand froze in the air as he turned to look at his younger son, who was walking toward them with short little legs.

Luca glanced at the child and nodded. She poured a glass of warm water for him.

Tommy was thirsty. He gulped down the water and asked, "Has Grandma Susan left?"

"Yes, she's gone," answered Luca as she patted the child's head. "Do you want some more?"

"No. Thank you, Ms. Luca." Tommy handed her the empty cup.

"Did you finish watching your cartoons?" asked Luke in a slightly displeased tone as he looked at his son, who was smiling and taking pleasure in Luca's gentle touch.

Judging from the child's personality, if he had not finished watching his cartoons, he would not have moved from his spot even if he was thirsty. He could endure until the end of the show. He was a true animation enthusiast.

"Yes, I've finished watching!" Tommy nodded and held Luca's hand, asking with concern, "Ms. Luca, Grandma Susan didn't bully you, did she?"
