Hearing Ms. Hayes ask this, Serena Sutton glanced worriedly at Caleb Lockwood.
She knew that Caleb's family, especially his mother, was something he was reluctant to mention. Ms. Hayes asking this was undoubtedly reopening Caleb's wounds.
However, Caleb seemed to be able to disguise himself well, as he answered breezily, "My hometown is in Kingsharbor. My mother hasn't been around since I was a child, and now it's just me and my father at home."
His mother is no longer around — he said those five words with ease.
It seemed as if it didn't cause any psychological pressure.
Ms. Hayes, hearing him say this, assumed that "not around" meant she had passed away. She couldn't help but feel sorry for this child.
So, he came from a single-parent family, and his mother passed away when he was very young.
No wonder his personality is somewhat unique.
Ms. Hayes moved her lips and continued to ask, "So what does your family do?"
