Chapter 816
While she was gone, Aurum bent down and whispered to Nicole, “You miss Joshua, right?”
Nicole nodded, and her eyes lit up eagerly. “Uncle Lefting, you know what I’m thinking!”
“Actually, Joshua should have gone back after that weekend at the theme park.”
“Oh? Is Joshua back home?”
Aurum whispered, “Nicole, let me finish. I made the decision myself to let Joshua stay with me. He’s at my house right now, and I helped him find a kindergarten to attend.”
“However, your mother doesn’t know about this at all. Joshua and I didn’t tell her, because she would make Joshua go back if she found out. Then, it would be very hard for you to see Joshua. So, Nicole, you can’t tell your mother at all, alright? It’s a secret between you, me and Joshua, we can’t let anyone else know!”
Nicole understood what he meant and immediately said, “Okay!”
Aurum hurriedly put a finger on her lips. “Shush, you have to be quiet.”
“Shush…”
Nicole mimicked him as she snuck a glance at the kitchen.
Winnie was busy washing the dishes with her back turned to them, not noticing anything at all.
She let Aurum and Nicole chat. It was not like anything would come from it. She was very confident that Nicole would only recognize her! No one could change it!
“You have to keep the secret, okay? Otherwise, Joshua will leave Sea City. You don’t want him to be so far away, right?” Aurum said again.
“Yes!”
“Good girl.”
Nicole asked, “But Uncle Lefting, why does mommy want Joshua to go back? Can’t he stay here?”
“I don’t know what she’s thinking either. It’s fine, just make sure you keep the secret. Don’t mention Joshua to your mother at all. Not a single word!”
Nicole loved her brother a lot.
