Luca got out of the car after she parked the car. She closed the door quietly so that she would not wake
Rainie up.
Luca walked past the front of the car and opened the passenger seat''s door. She unfastened Rainie''s
seat belt and pulled the jacket up as it had slid down Rainie''s body. Then, she carried Rainie in her
arms.
Even though Rainie was skinny, she was heavy.
However, Luca managed to carry Rainie in her arms and walk into the vi without much effort.
Aunt Neile was surprised to see Luca carrying Rainie back in her arms. Luca shook her head when she
was about to speak, so Aunt Neile immediately shut her mouth.
Luca carried Rainie up the stairs.
Aunt Neile followed behind closely, worried that Luca could not carry the child. After all, Rainie was
already a ten-year-old child, while Luca looked so skinny. What if Luca could not carry the child all the
way to her bedroom?
However, Luca carried Rainie in her arms and made her way up the stairs steadily. It showed that Aunt
Neile was overthinking.
Luca firmly held her daughter in her arms.
Aunt Neile saw Luca walk toward Rainie''s bedroom. She hurried over to help them push the door open.
Luca walked into the bedroom and ced the child on the bed. She took Rainie''s shoes and socks off,
tucked her into bed, and let out a sigh of relief.
Aunt Neile gave her a thumbs-up.
Luca reckoned that Aunt Neile was praising her for her strength without saying anything. Carrying a
ten-year-old child while walking up the stairs without catching a breath and cing the child on the bed
without waking her up was indeed an unbelievable feat.
Luca rose to her feet as she looked at Rainie, who was deeply asleep. It tugged at Luca''s heartstrings
when she saw Rainie smiling with her eyes closed in the car just now. That was why Luca was
reluctant to wake the child up.
Luca made a hand gesture to signal Aunt Neile to leave the room.
Aunt Neile understood what she meant. She nodded and left Rainie''s room together with Luca.
Rainie''s bedroom door was closed behind them. After walking for some distance, Aunt Neile spoke,
“Ms. Craw, you''re so strong. I can''t believe you can carry Ms. Rainie."
Luca looked so delicately built. If it were not for Aunt Neile seeing it herself, she could never have
imagined Luca carrying Rainie in her arms.
“The child''s not heavy," said Luca. The punching bag she carried on the Ind of Despair was much
heavier than Rainie.
The instructor Abel had sent to train Luca often asked her to carry a punching bag that weighed 50
kilograms on her back while running to train her physique. He did not care if Luca could handle it or not,
she had to run. If she ran slow, she would be given extra training.
That was why even though Luca''s body was initially weak, she had gotten used to the inhuman training
she went through in those years.
Carrying Rainie was nothing to her.
"That''s still impressive. Did Ms. Rainie fall asleep?" Aunt Neile asked. She was worried that Rainie was
sick.
"Yes. She''s asleep. It''s her nap time now. She couldn''t hold herself back any longer and fell asleep in
the car," replied Luca.
Aunt Neile nced in the direction of the bedroom and nodded. "Ms. Craw, you should get some rest
too. I''m going downstairs to do some cleaning."
"Okay. Thank you." Luca headed downstairs too.
She walked out of the house and marched to the car. She took the bag Rainie put her ballet costume in
and camera out of the car.
It was inconvenient for Luca to get these when she had to carry Rainie.
She strolled back into the house carrying those in her hands. She ced the bag on the sofa and said
to Aunt Neile, "Aunt Neile, this is Rainie''s ballet costume. It needs to be dry-cleaned. Please bring it to
theundry shop."
"Okay, no problem," answered Aunt Neile, who was tidying up the living room.
Luca carried her bag and camera and headed upstairs.
Luca did not rest. She transferred the photos in the camera to herptop. It reminded her of N when
she watched Rainie''s incredible performance on the stage.
If N had grown up in the same environment as Rainie, would she like ballet too?
Luca let out a sigh when she thought of her youngest daughter. It was probably because of her living
environment, so the things N was interested in were odd...
However, Luca hoped that she could implement her ns earlier so that she could bring her daughter
out of that environment.
Otherwise, it would bring nothing but trouble for the child''s growth.
Lucay down on her bed after turning off herptop, thinking of taking a nap.
Perhaps she was tired. She fell asleep after covering herself with the nket.
Luca had no idea how long she had slept. She felt like someone was watching her and slowly opened
her eyes. Then, she realized Rainie was sitting on her bed, smiling and looking at her.
"Ms. Luca, you''re awake!" Before Luca could say anything, Rainie spoke.
Luca stroked her forehead and looked at the child. She asked, "Why are you sitting here?"
“I came here after I woke up. You were sleeping, so I didn''t wake you up," answered Rainie with a smile
on her face.
Luca nced at her phone. There were a few unread messages. She looked at the time and realized
that she had slept for an hour.
"I slept for so long?" She remembered that she was nning to take a nap, but she did not expect that
she would sleep for an hour.
Luca was a light sleeper. She usually could not fall asleep in the afternoon. She was only closing her
eyes to rest.

"Ms. Luca, you were deeply asleep just now. And it sounded like you were talking in your sleep." Rainie
stood up and looked at her.
"I was talking in my sleep? What did I say?" Luca did not recall talking in her sleep.
"It sounded like you were calling Daddy''s name," said Rainie, and she was still smiling. Although Rainie
used the words ''sounded like'', she had heard it clearly with her own two ears.
Luca''s face reddened, and she quickly denied it. "I wasn''t dreaming just now. You must have heard it
wrong."
"I probably got it wrong. But Ms. Luca, you were sleeping soundly," said Rainie. If she were not afraid
of waking up Luca, she would have climbed up Luca''s bed and cuddled with her.
It was the happiest thing to be able to cuddle with her mother and sleep together with her.
"Maybe I was tired." Luca massaged her aching forehead, feeling ufortable.
Perhaps it was because she slept in.
Luca got out of bed. She was recalling what Rainie had just said to her.
She was deeply asleep, and she could not really remember if she was dreaming just now.
Did she really dream of Luke?
Rainie noticed that Luca was in a daze. She held her chin in her hand and asked with confusion, "Ms.
Luca, what are you thinking about?"
"Nothing." Luca shook her head.
"Ms. Luca, what should we doter?" Rainie asked. She wanted to do some parent-child activities with
Luca. After all, Tommy was clingy and was usually always around Luca. It was a rare chance for her to
be able to spend time with Luca alone.
Luca pondered for a moment and replied, "Should we bake cookies?"
Luca remembered that Tommy was saying that he wanted some cookies, but she did not have the time
to prepare them. She thought she might as well bake some cookies with Rainie while she had the
chance now.
"Sure. Tommy loves the cookies you bake. I''d like to learn too," Rainie said joyfully.
"Let''s go." Luca reached out and offered her palm to Rainie.
Rainie held her hand, and the two of them made their way down the stairs together.
