What happens at the end of 'The Cleaning Lady'?

After happily making plans for the future with Fiona, Thony and her return home to the kids in a joyful mood that soon sours. Calling out for Luca she gets no response making her frantic as she rushes to his room, only to find it empty. She yells out for her husband Marco(Ivan Shaw) as well but gets no response as a horrible realization sinks in.

Marco who was against her staying in America with Luca and the rest of the family, took his son away without informing anyone. The husband and wife were supposed to discuss it and not make rash decisions but he clearly acted out selfishly by stealing away Luca. The series ends with Thony's world coming crashing down as she cries horribly when she realizes her child is missing with his health at risk without her being there to monitor him
