Chapter 904

What was Aurum hiding from her? Why did he always refuse to tell her anything about Gale?

No, she could not allow this to go on. Natalie needed to find out what Aurum and Gale were doing!

Looking at Aurum leave, Natalie made sure she was properly hidden. She went back to the house through the

alleys, acting as if nothing had happened.

The ***sedan ***on the streets, finally stopping at the Warm household’s garden.

The sound of a child filled the yard.

“I have a beautiful dream. I dream of sowing the sun when I grow up. Just one…” Joshua sang happily.

With his mother and grandfather by his side, he was the happiest little boy!

Joshua looked at Gale and asked, “Baby, why do they only want to plant the sun and not the moon? There’s only

one moon in the sky. It’s probably very lonely.”

A child’s thoughts were always that naive.

Gale laughed. “Then, you can plant a sun and a moon!”

“Alright! If I do, I’ll give them to you! That way, it doesn’t matter if it’s night or day. You won’t be lonely!”

“Yes, yes. Thank you, Joshua.”

“Don’t mention it.”

The quiet household was suddenly filled with life upon Joshua’s arrival.

After she showered, Gale got out of the bathroom. She saw Joshua standing in front of the door with something in

hand, looking right at her.

She thought Joshua wanted to sleep with her.

“You can’t! You’re already four years old, a big boy now. You can sleep alone,” Gale said.

“I know. I came to give you a present.”

“A present?”

Joshua quickly ran over, thrusting what was in his hands at her. “Look!”

Gale looked over to see colorful little stars that filled up a glass jar.

All of them had been folded by hand.

She took it. “Joshua, did you fold all these stars yourself?”

Joshua asked, “I did. Do you like them? Girls all like sparkly and colorful things like this, right? You might be my

mommy, but you’re still a girl!”

Gale took the glass jar.

Every time she shook it, the stars would move. It looked very nice with all those colors.

Gale said, “Thank you, Joshua. I like this gift a lot.”

Joshua sniffed cheekily, purposely acting like he did not care that much. “It’s nothing. I learned it after the teacher

taught me just one time. I purposely made them for you.”

“It’s such a big jar. You must have taken a long time.”

“It’s nothing. I just casually folded some. I folded one every time I thought about you.” Joshua would never admit it.

Gale’s eyes glistened.

There were so many stars. How often did Joshua think about her?

She felt a deep sense of guilt. Ever since Nicole had been diagnosed with leukemia, most of her time and thoughts

were occupied with Nicole. She had been neglecting Joshua.

Looking at her tears, Joshua hurriedly said, “Of course, it’s not just you. I fold one every time I think about Nicole

too!”

Gale sniffed as she held the jar with one hand, pulling him onto her lap with the other.

“I miss our family too, Joshua. Every night before I sleep, I’ll wonder what you ate that day. I’ll wonder how your

classes were and if you’ve finished your homework. If you’ve been a good boy…” Gale said.

“I have been!”

Gale smiled. “Did you have a good time at the Lefting household? Did you cause Uncle Lefting any trouble?”

“Uncle Lefting treats me very well. He told me just to treat that place as my own home. He always helps me with

my homework. Sometimes, he’s still there, even when I’m about to sleep. He keeps looking at me. I wonder what

he always thinks about.”
