My eyes darted away quickly when I saw Leonardo eyeing us curiously. For someone who supposedly shouldn't know anything about raising kids, he seemed remarkably familiar with interacting with toddlers, judging by the concerned expression etched onto his handsome features.
"So... You're the irresponsible mother. For a second I had wondered who was a lot more cruel than I gave them credit for," he said flatly, making no effort whatsoever to hide his disdain. It felt like being hit square between the eyes.
It sounded accusatory, which meant he had an idea of what might have happened.
My stomach twisted uncomfortably because, despite his handsome features and taking care of my little girl while I was searching for her, I knew better than to think he was a kindhearted soul underneath all that swaggering attitude. Which reminded me why I never wanted to get involved with another mobster ever since leaving my ex-husband years ago.
