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.

Lanie, who was usually a picky eater, did not complain about the food tonight. He knew Luca was sick and could not

make dinner for them. Hence, he behaved himself and ate the dinner prepared by the maid.

The maid let out a sigh of relief when she saw that the children did not complain about the dinner she made.

After dinner, Luca sat on the couch and waited for the kids to finish their homework. Tommy held his phone and

dashed toward Luca when she was busy checking their homework. "Ms. Luca, Daddy is asking for a video call."

Luca stroked Tommy's head and replied, “Answer it, then."

Tommy opened his mouth as if he was about to say something. He thought of telling her that his daddy missed her

too. However, he shut his mouth with embarrassment when he remembered what Luke had reminded him before.

He tapped on the answer button and tried to stretch his hands out so that Luke could get a wider view.

The video call connected, and Luke's face showed up on the screen of the phone.

Tommy waved his hand excitedly and called out, "Daddy!"

Luke nodded. He was able to see Luca, who was busy checking the kids' homework, through the phone angle that

Tommy had deliberately adjusted.

Luke noticed Luca's face had become paler, but he was not sure if it was because of the lighting there.

"Daddy, have you eaten your dinner?" Tommy asked. He missed his daddy a lot after not seeing him for two days.

"Yes." Luke's voice came from the phone's speaker. Luca's hand that was flipping the pages paused. She lifted her

head and saw that with the angle Tommy was holding up the phone, Luke would be able to get a good view of her.

Hence, Luke was able to see most of her face while only half of Tommy's face was shown on the screen.

Tommy did it on purpose...

Luca was speechless, but her face was already captured on camera. She had no choice but to greet the man,

"Good evening, Mr. Crawford."

"Good evening," replied Luke.

The two of them looked at each other, but they did not intend to say another word.

Tommy was a little anxious. Luca spoke first when he was about to speak, "Uh, you guys go ahead. I'm going to

continue to check the kids' homework."

Tommy turned to look at Luca.

Luca stroked his head and reminded him, saying, "Lanie and Rainie must miss their daddy too. Bring the phone

along with you and go look for them."

Tommy pouted with reluctance. Back then, whenever they had video calls with Daddy, she would hold them in their

arms while chatting with Daddy.

Now, she refused to have a video call with Daddy.

Tommy had no choice but to bring the phone up to the second floor. After he went back to his bedroom, he spoke,

"Daddy, why did Ms. Luca refuse to talk to you?"

"I don't know either." Luke's son had voiced out his thoughts. Luke refused to admit the truth, but it was indeed a

fact.

"It must be because you're not putting in enough effort. That's why Ms. Luca doesn't want to talk to you." Tommy

pouted.

Luke's face turned slightly ashen as he listened to what his son said. “Where did you learn all these?"

Tommy stuck his tongue out at him and changed the subject hurriedly. "Ah, Lanie and Rainie must miss you too. I'll

pass the phone to them."

After that, Tommy went out of his bedroom with the phone. He went looking for Lanie and Rainie.

Luca was still in the living room, signing the kids' homework on behalf of Luke. Then, she put their exercise books

back into their bags.

Nina came out of the washroom at this moment and saw Luca putting the exercise books back into the kids' bags.

She asked, "Have you finished checking their homework?"

"Yes." Luca zipped their bags to prevent the kids from dropping their books to the ground if they fooled around.

"Do you have to check their homework for them every day?" Nina asked again.

"Not really. Mr. Crawford is usually the one who checks their homework when he's not busy," answered Luca. "Well,

given the circumstances now, I'm just temporarily taking over this duty."

"I see. I was wondering why you've been so kind to the kids. It won't be too much even if they start calling you their

godmother." Nina smiled and stepped forward to put all of Luca's files back into her briefcase. "Let's go upstairs

since you've finished everything."

Luca's face was slightly pale as she listened to what Nina said.

The children's godmother...

Luca had never wanted to be the children's godmother.

Luca held onto the back of the sofa and used it to support herself to stand up. When she was about to make her

way up the steps, Nina's phone rang.

"Give me a minute. Let me answer this phone call," said Nina as she picked up her phone and glanced at the

number. The expression on her face changed. She answered it immediately.

"May I know if this is Ms. Nina?" A woman's voice came from the other end of the call.

"Yes, that's me. Did something happen to my mother?" Nina asked. The call was from the hospital. That was why

she knew something must have happened to Anna before the nurse spoke to her.

"It's not about your mother, it's your elder brother. He got into trouble in a bar and was beaten up quite badly. He's

being sent to the hospital now. Your mother is unable to get down from the bed to handle the hospital admission

procedure. Are you able to come over to the hospital to get it done?" the nurse asked.

"Did he get into a fight?" Nina's voice sounded a few keys higher.

"Yes, and it was quite serious. The police officers are waiting here to handle the matter now," answered the nurse.

"I'll be right there." Nina glanced at Luca, her eyes filled with guilt.
