After the cartoon show ended, Luca urged the three children to go upstairs to wash up and rest.


    Today, the kids were in high spirits and did not listen to her. They chattered around Luca for more than


    ten minutes until Luke came downstairs and gave them a look. Only then did they reluctantly go


    upstairs to wash up.


    "The kids are excited today," exined Luca.


    "Yes, I know," replied Luke.


    He nced at the time after he finished work and realized it waste. He noticed that Luca and the kids


    had not gone upstairs yet. He assumed Louis and Yuri had not left. Therefore, he went downstairs to


    check on them, only to find out it was the kids'' excitement that kept them downstairs.


    Luca nced at the time, smiled, and approached him. Grabbing his arm, she said, "Let''s go upstairs.


    We need to keep an eye on the kids tonight. Otherwise, they''ll be too excited to sleep."


    "Sure. Let''s go," replied Luke as he held her soft hand. They made their way up the stairs together.


    Having already revealed her true identity to the kids, Luca did not feel awkward about such intimate


    gestures.


    The affection between parents was beneficial for a child''s growth.


    When they came to the second floor, Luca exchanged nces with Luke and said, "I''d like to freshen


    up.”


    "Okay." Luke let go of her hand. After he watched her enter the master bedroom, he went into the


    opposite room, nning to freshen up as well. After all, today was an important day for the two of them.


    Despite already knowing that Luca''s true identity was Bianca, today''s confession was their true reunion


    as husband and wife.


    Luke took off his watch, ced it in the disy cab, and then picked up his phone. Something


    came across his mind, and he opened the photo gallery.


    Thetest photos were the ones Luca had sent him. They were photos of their precious little daughter.


    Luca told him that she had not named the child yet. She only gave her a nickname—N.


    Luke let out a soft chuckle and touched the phone screen. N resembled Luca a lot and also looked a


    lot like Rainie when she was little.


    "Don''t worry, Daddy will get you out safely and show you this beautiful world.” Luke quietly made a


    promise as he looked at the photo.


    Even though Luca did not say anything about it, he knew that a child''s life on the Ind of Despair


    could not be good.


    The Ind of Despair was underground, where there were no seasons. There were no melodies of


    birds and the fragrance of flowers...


    Such an environment was definitely not suitable for a child''s growth.


    As a father, Luke had more thoughts about rescuing his daughter after knowing that she was stuck on


    the Ind of Despair.


    He put away his phone and walked into the bathroom.


    After freshening up in the master bedroom, Luca sat in front of the dressing table. She dried her hair


    and applied skincare products.


    Then came the sound of knocking.


    "Come in," said Luca as she turned to look at the door. She saw Rainiee in. Then, she smiled and


    asked, "Why aren''t you in bed yet?"


    "Ms. Luca, can I sleep with you tonight?" Rainie blinked her eyes eagerly. They were shimmering with


    anticipation.


    Even though the children could not change the way they addressed her yet, today was a good day for


    the children as it was the first day their mother was back with them.


    Rainie wished that she could fall asleep in her embrace.


    "But..." Before Luca could finish her words, Luke''s voice came from outside the door.


    "No. Go sleep in your own room."


    Rainie turned around to look at Luke, tilting her head gently. "Daddy, I want to sleep with Ms. Luca


    tonight. Let me borrow her for one night, and I''ll give her back to you tomorrow!"


    It had been years since she slept with her mother, and she really missed the warmth of her embrace.


    Luke still shook his head even after his daughter pleaded with him.


    Today was special for the kids, but it was also a special day for him. Luca must be by his side tonight.


    "Daddy." Rainie cooed, confident that her sweet talk would surely work its magic.


    "You''re a big girl now. You should sleep on your own," replied Luke sternly.


    "Daddy''s being really possessive, but Ms. Luca is not only yours!" Rainieined in a low voice.


    She pouted her pink lips, which Tommy often did.


    "She''s my wife, so she''s mine alone." Luke insisted on keeping Luca by his side. He could endure any


    time but not tonight.


    Rainie wanted to protest, but then she heard him say, "Where would you be without us?"


    She understood what he meant. If it were not for the couple, there would not be her and her siblings.


    Knowing that begging Luke would not work, Rainie looked at Luca pitifully. "Just for tonight. I want to


    sleep with Ms. Luca."


    Luke felt helpless when he saw his daughter insisting on snatching his woman. How he wished he


    could just grab her cor, pick her up, put her outside, close the door, and let her go back to her room


    to sleep.


    However, Rainie was his daughter, and it did not seem right to do so.


    If it were Lanie and Tommy causing a ruckus, he would have easily lifted them and sent them back to


    their room like they were little chicks.

    As Luca watched the father and daughter debating over who she would spend the night with, she could


    not help but curl her lips. She said, "The bed is big enough. Rainie can sleep here tonight."


    "Yay!" Rainie cheered, pping her hands. At the same time, she looked up at Luke, dering her


    victory.


    It seemed like neither of them lost, but Luke knew he had lost. He looked disapprovingly at Luca,


    expressing his dissatisfaction.


    Children naturally clung to their mothers, and he understood that. Still, Rainie arguing with him over his


    wife at this time was not right.


    "Alright. Rainie, go get your pillow." Luca deliberately ignored Luke''s mournful look. If the child wanted


    to be close to her, there was no way she could refuse.


    Rainie nodded, turned around, and left the master bedroom. She returned to her room, grabbed her


    pillow, and then bounced happily back to the master bedroom.


    Luke looked at the door, watching his daughter enter with excitement. There was nothing he could do


    tonight.


    He looked helpless.


    However, Rainie was his daughter, and it seemed there was nothing he could do.


    If Rainie fell asleep, perhaps he could move her backter?


    It seemed like a good idea, but Luca might not allow it. Luke had no choice but to ept his fate at the


    thought of this.


    Rainie ced the pillow on the bed and then turned to her parents. "Mommy, Daddy, which side should


    I sleep on?"


    Luca answered, "Sleep in the middle of the bed."


    "Okay, great!" As soon as Rainie finished speaking, Luke said, "The bed is big enough. You can sleep


    on the left or right side."


    He still wanted to cuddle with his wife while sleeping. If the child slept in the middle, how could he hold


    Luca in his arms?


    There was nothing much he could do, but could he at least hold her while sleeping? Did he have to be


    separated from Luca just because the child wanted to sleep with them?


    Luca frowned disapprovingly at him. "Rainie shouldn''t sleep on the side. What if she rolls off the bed?"


    Luke wanted to tell her that Rainie was not the type to roll around while sleeping, but when he saw the


    disapproving look on Luca''s face, he had no choice but to remain silent.
