"Huh?" Maria looked at the text message, finding it almost laughable. Mary? Her mother?

She had grown up in an orphanage and was later handpicked and trained by Lucas. There was a time when she had searched for her biological parents, but the technology back then wasn't advanced enough to find them. After some time, she gave up.

It wasn't hard to imagine that she had been quite the beauty in her younger years. Between them stood a boy, glaring at the camera with arrogance.
