Chapter 820
"Uncle Lefting!" The moment Aurum walked in, Joshua ran out. "You're back? Are you tired? Let me make you some tea and massage your legs and tell you stories and turn the TV on..."
Joshua’s mouth really was a rare talent.
He did not even seem to need to breathe.
Normally, Aurum would joke around with him, but Aurum was in no mood that day.
Joshua asked, "Did you see Nicole? Is she better? Is the surgery successful? What about my mommy? Is she tired? Did she get skinner?
When can I see the two of them?"
Aurum looked at him with a serious expression.
Joshua's smile slowly disappeared. His face turned incredibly serious as well. "What is it, Uncle Lefting. Did something happen?"
"Yes."
Joshua was suddenly incredibly anxious. "Who's mistreating them? Tell me now. I'll go help them!"
Aurum picked Joshua up and put Joshua on his leg, telling Joshua everything.
At that moment, he did not treat Joshua as a little kid. Instead, he seriously told Joshua everything, analyzing the situation in great detail.
Aurum even told Joshua why Gale did not let Joshua recognize his father and wanted Joshua to go back.
Joshua understood everything.
Joshua was always smart.
Joshua said, "So that's it. Mommy only has me now. I'm her final hope. If everyone knows whose son I am, I might be like Nicole one day, calling someone else my parents."
"Yes, Gale's very careful. She's making contingencies for everything. So, Joshua, it's not that she doesn't love you. It's the opposite. She loves you too much."
Joshua answered, "I understand! I don't blame mommy. I just want her to get Nicole back as soon as she can!"
Aurum had a difficult look on his face. "It might not be that easy."
Joshua rubbed his chin and said, "We still need to figure something out. What can I do?"
