Leandro remained silent, directing his gaze at Valerio. "Look up at me," he said calmly.
Valerio hesitated for a moment, then gradually lifted his head with difficulty. His face appeared pale, and he wore a sad expression.
Leandro paid no mind to Valerio's distressed state and began to speak slowly. "Now, I need you to understand something."
Valerio's eyes widened suddenly, fixed on Leandro.
"Seraphina is not your mom." Leandro's tone was steady, "And there won't be any woman becoming your mom in the future. Don't keep your hopes up."
The moment Leandro began to speak, Conway started to get anxious. As soon as Leandro finished his words, he immediately put the headphones back on Valerio's head.
But it was already too late.
Valerio just stared blankly at Leandro, his eyes filled with confusion and loss.
Seeing this, Conway was so angry he picked up his crutch to hit Leandro. But the space in the carriage was limited, he couldn't swing his crutch, so he could only let out a roar, "What the hell are you talking about? Can you say such things to a child? What do you mean by there won't be any woman becoming his mom? What do you mean by not keeping any hopes up? What are you trying to say?"
Leandro had already turned his attention back to his tablet. Upon hearing Conway's questioning, he simply replied calmly, "Exactly what I said."
Conway was trembling with anger. He felt sorry for Valerio, but he also knew Leandro's character. He couldn't vent his anger, so he just pulled Valerio closer, removed his headphones, and whispered, "Valerio, don't listen to your dad. I will help you find your mom! Whoever you like can be your mom!"
Upon hearing this, Valerio didn't react, he just stealthily glanced at Leandro.
