The mellowness of the butter spread in her mouth. Luca took another bite and watched Luke out of the corners of her eyes.
She knew that Luke did not like sweets.
However, there were only desserts and fruits in the mini bar.
Luca said softly when she noticed that Luke was just staring at the desserts, "Mr. Crawford, if you don’t like sweets, you can try the chocolate cake."
Luke pointed to the little chocolate cake and said, "This one?"
"Yeah." Luca nodded. The cake was mainly made of dark chocolate and cocoa powder, so it would not be as sweet as other cakes.
Luke took a bite, and the aroma of rich chocolate and cocoa attacked his taste buds. It was not too sweet, so he could still accept it.
He slightly raised the corners of his mouth.
Luca noticed the arc of his smile and could not help but ask curiously, "Mr. Crawford, what are you smiling at?"
"Rainie's favorite as a child was chocolate," Luke said.
Luca nodded. She knew that.
Her little girl loved sweet things, especially chocolate. However, after three years, Rainie did not seem to be a big fan of chocolate anymore. It was probably because the little girl had grown up and started to pay attention to her figure.
After all, she danced ballet, and it had strict weight requirements.
"Eventually, she stopped having it." Luke savored the chocolate cake in front of him and mentioned those things she missed.
Luca had a rough idea of why, but she still wanted to hear about the kids. Hence, she played along and asked, "Why?"
"Tommy cried day and night after my wife was kidnapped. Sometimes, he needed chocolate to calm down. Rainie said that as his older sister, she should take care of her younger brother. Hence, she gave all the chocolates in her pocket to Tommy. Since then, she stopped eating chocolate," Luke said. It was because of this that Rainie became more sensible and gave all the good things to her brother.
It was just to make Tommy feel less uncomfortable for a while.
Luca was calm on the outside, but her heart felt as though it was being cut by a knife when she heard what he said.
Her children suffered so much pain because of her. They were supposed to be surrounded by sweetness and happiness but were forced to be haunted by such a huge trauma.
She had heard about the fake Bianca from Nina.
After the fake Bianca lost her memory, she became extremely eccentric and did not care about the children. All she cared about was Luke.
She would lose her temper if anyone in the villa, whether it was a servant, Old Master Crawford, or even a child, did something that made her unhappy.
The three children were alienated from the fake Bianca because of her unstable temper and unkindness.
Even though she was present, it was as though they did not have a mother.
They were still a lot of people who loved and cared for the kids, but they had seen the fake Bianca go crazy. She was like a ticking time bomb. Luca believed that the three children were traumatized by it.
This trauma would not fade over time...
In such an environment, they were forced to mature...
Luca was already sad because she had made her children suffer so much. She felt much worse when she heard Luke mention the reason why Rainie gave up liking chocolate...
She looked up and saw the snow falling outside the window. She thought of the past.
It took some time for her to be reunited with Lanie and Rainie. They became close because they were related by blood. It did not take much effort to get them to accept the fact that she was their mother.
Later, a person who was carefully prepared by Abel appeared in their lives.
Luca could not help herself from clenching her hands into fists when she thought of how the fake Bianca had destroyed the image of a mother in the kids’ hearts.
Luke noticed a change in her mood.
He did not mention anything about it. He had deliberately said what he said to cause her mood to fluctuate.
Even if Luca did not think about him, she would think about the children.
