Chapter 2011

"Mommy is number one, Nicole is second, and Grandpa and Grandma are tied for third, and..." Joshua trailed off. Shawn raised an eyebrow. "I'm not even in the top three?" "You... barely make fifth. Fourth is Great Grandpa," Joshua replied. "Just because you bought me a star." "Thank you so much." "You're welcome, Shawn. By this calculation, Uncle Aurum ranks sixth." Shawn let out a cold laugh. "In your heart, he's just behind me." "For now, that's the order. You need to work hard and strive to get into the top three. Keep it up," Joshua said, patting Shawn on the shoulder. Shawn did not even glance at him and walked straight into the living room. Gale watched this scene with amazement. "You two are so oddly affectionate today. Did your relationship suddenly improve?" Joshua eagerly wrapped an arm around Shawn's neck. "We just collaborated on something big!" "What big thing?" "We..." Shawn suddenly coughed twice. "Secret. Can't tell you." Joshua quickly changed his tune.
