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?"

Aurum was deep in thought as well.

After a while, he frowned.

Quickly, he called the housekeeper over.

"Mr. Lefting," The housekeeper said respectfully, "Do you need anything?"

"A few days ago, did a crazy looking lady pass by nearby?"

"A crazy lady?"

Aurum nodded. "Yes, a crazy lady that kept muttering crazy words and scavenged the rubbish bins."

The housekeeper thought about it and said, "I think there was. It's just that the guards chased her away."

"Chased her away? Where to?"

"You'd have to ask the guards."

Aurum immediately gathered all the guards.

"Who saw that crazy woman?"

One of the guards raised their hands.

"You?" Aurum asked, "Where did you chase her away to? When did you do that? When did you last see her?"

The guard was just about to answer when Natalia suddenly walked in from the backdoor.

"Aurum?" Winnie was confused when she saw all the guards together." What are you doing?"

She looked over at Joshua next to Aurum.

Why was it that child again?

She had seen him so many times!

This time, Aurum was even holding his hand. They seemed very close.

Aurum asked her, "Natalie, you came at just the right time. You've always been in charge in the household. Did you see a crazy lady walking around recently?"
