The host passionately introduced, "The next player is the younger participant in this competition. He's only three-years-old, but he has managed to stand out from the many contestants and attracted a lot of attention. He's called a piano genius that comes out only once every century!""He's a favorite to win it all and is the dark horse of this tournament. What will he do after this? Let's wait and see.""Come, let's give the warmest applause and welcome, Joshua Warm!" Everyone started to applaud loudly. Under the lights, Joshua wore a suit and tie as he earnestly walked toward the piano.He sat on the bench and placed his hands on the white and black keys.Joshua took a deep breath before he looked at the host and nodded.The lights on the stage slowly dimmed, and only he was left illuminated.He looked incredibly pure.As the first note was heard from Joshua's fingertips, everyone below the stage exclaimed.Quite a few judges even stood up with looks of excitement and app

It was as if he lived for the stage and for the piano!The crowd at the plaza could not resist clapping for him, even though they were looking at a screen."Whose son is this? What a genius.""If I were his mother, I'd probably even be smiling in my sleep."I really want to pinch his face.""Boohoo, I really want to get married and have a child now."Shawn said, "I'm really starting to wonder who his mother is. What kind of amazing woman managed to raise such an excellent son."Joe had a serious look on his face, unable to smile at all. He was in no mood to enjoy that difficult piano performance.It was because he felt like the little boy looked a lot like Shawn from certain angles!They were incredibly alike!It even made Joe wonder if he was Shawn's long-lost son.They were so alike that Joe wanted to pay a visit to the old Wood residence to ask Lucas for Shawn's younger pictures. He wanted to compare them with this little boy!However, Joe forgot about that idea.Gale w

No one dared to say anything around them.Those who had worked together to bully Gale had completely forgotten all about it.Just thinking about the prize money she would get, Gale was even happier. They were going to get both money and reputation!It had been so long, and there was finally some good news for the whole family!"Alright, alright. Judges, please don't get too excited for now. Let's allow Joshua to rest first. As for becoming a student… You can talk about it after the tournament," the host said.Joshua suddenly raised his hand.The host knelt down and passed the microphone over. "Come, Joshua has something to say.""Thank you, judges, for your favor, but I don't want to affect the later contestants. Let's finish the tournament fairly first. Thank you," Joshua saidHe bowed before leaving the stage in a cool manner.The contestants after Joshua were under a lot of pressure.That was because no one could play a song better than his!It was the hardest song in t

They started to mock Gale coldly again.Gale did not bother with them. Instead, she frowned as she looked over at Joshua.He furrowed his little eyebrows a bit, but he still maintained his natural composure.At that moment, the screen showed all the audience votes.The votes were rapidly increasing.Joshua was firmly in the first place.Gale quickly calculated in her head. The judges' score took up seventy percent of the points, so being 0.1 points lower, how much would Joshua need in terms of votes to secure first place?She was quite anxious, so her mind did not work as well as it usually did.Before Gale could finish calculating, Nicole suddenly pointed at the screen and shouted, "Mommy, look!" She saw the number of votes behind Joshua's name rapidly increasing.Before a minute passed, Joshua's votes had already exceeded the votes the second place got by three times! He was firmly in the first place!The voting period was already counting down."Ten, nine, eight, seve

He already knew he would win the tournament anyway.It was something completely within his expectations.Gale let out a slight smile at his son's cool expression. However, she felt a pang in her heart.He was so much like Shawn.The two of them were so alike. They were never surprised by anything. No matter what, they were always calm. It was as if nothing could shake their hearts.Why are you acting so cool for?! Brat, you can cheer and shout. You're the champion! That was what went through Gale's mind."Alright, everyone, let's listen to what Joshua has to say as the champion."Taking the mic, Joshua said coolly, "Thank you, everyone. Thank you for all those big brothers, big sisters, aunties, uncles, grandpas and grandmas who voted for me."The host said, "You can tell us how you feel about becoming the champion.""Oh, I have nothing to say. I already knew I would win anyway," Joshua answered.Those words were so arrogant.They were even more arrogant than how Gale had

Gods!Joe was shocked yet again!Gale had a set of twins back then!Aurum had hidden it so well, only telling Joe that Nicole had leukemia but not saying anything about Joshua. Joe never expected it at all.After all, just the existence of Nicole alone was shocking enough.No wonder he kept on feeling like Joshua really looked like Shawn. He had thought that he was overthinking things. It turned out that his thoughts were absolutely correct!Furthermore, Joshua Warm. His surname was Warm!That was Gale's name too!Joe was completely shocked at that moment.His face constantly twitched. If it were any other moment, Shawn would have noticed it.However, at that moment, Shawn was also deep in shock.Fate really was hard to explain."Molly, so she's Joshua's mother!" Shawn stared at the screen. "This time, Molly won't be able to escape!"No wonder Joshua suddenly appeared in the room when he and Arthur were in the room.Molly had brought him there!Shawn thought about it

The moment Gale left, the camera panned over!If she had just been two seconds late, she would not have been able to escape!It was incredibly lucky!Gale patted her chest, still a bit worried. "I forgot to tell Joshua not to mention my name when he gets his prize…"Thankfully, he said she was Molly and not Gale!Otherwise, she would not be able to do anything! There would be no saving the situation!"Mommy, why are we standing here?" Nicole asked."Because… Because… Once Joshua gets his prize, he'll leave here. We're just waiting for him."Nicole nodded. "We can go home with him!"After that, Nicole corrected herself, "No, go back to the hospital!"Gale patted her head. "We'll eat a good meal with Mrs. Zoe to celebrate Joshua winning!""Okay!"The finals were over, but Gale had forgotten about one thing.After the tournament, the first two places need to be interviewed by the media! The interview lasted an hour!She called the director, "Hello, I am Joshua's mother."

They were too close!Gale immediately looked away and turned around to face her back toward him. She knelt down and put Nicole in front of her!"Mommy?" Nicole looked at Gale with a questioning gaze. "Oh, I saw someone I really hate. I don't want him to notice me, Nicole, shield me, okay?" Gale said.Nicole heard it and looked over. "Who is it?""Don't move. Don't look over." Gale's heart was beating rapidly. "Just wait for him to leave!"Last time, she had almost met Shawn. There was only one door away.This time, there was nothing between them!If Shawn had just looked over, he would immediately see her!Then, it would depend on whether he recognized her!If he did, then Gale wondered what she would do.Would she run?Would she be able to escape?If she ran, would that not show that she was guilty?Then, Shawn would definitely run after her.If she did not run, then what would Shawn do if he saw her? Was she supposed to wait for him to get her?Gale had countless tho

In front of the little girl, a woman was kneeling down. He would be able to see the corner of her shirt.However, with how familiar Shawn was with Gale, he would definitely have noticed something.Unfortunately, he was only looking forward.Gale was completely stiff, and she did not move at all.She only dared to look up when she stopped hearing any footsteps.Only a few idle guards were chatting outside the entrance. Shawn and Joe were gone.Gale was sweating.It was so close…"Come!" She hurriedly got up and held Nicole's hand, hailing a taxi. "Sir, bring us to the hospital.""Alright!" Gale only breathed a sigh of relief when the taxi left the street.Why was Shawn there again?What was he doing there?Even if he noticed the tournament and heard Joshua saying that Joshua's mother was Molly, surely he would not be able to make it here so quickly! It was at least two hours away by flight from Sea City!So, there was only one possibility: Shawn was already there in t

A silver-haired man appeared in front of everyone.He had a high-end, custom-made suit on. His expression was cold, and he looked like a beautiful sculpture.He was an absolutely beautiful specimen of a man!Shawn pursed his lips as he looked at Joshua in the middle of the interview area.Their eyes met."We meet again, brat," he said. Joshua looked at him and blinked, rubbing his eyes.Why was that old man here?!The journalists seemed to have found some important clue, and all of them ran toward Shawn."Who are you to Joshua?""Did you play any part in him winning the tournament?""Why did you only appear now? What relationship do you have with Joshua?"Suddenly, there were a lot of people in front of Shawn.The guards hurriedly ran over to maintain order. "Stand back, stand back. Don't crowd."Shawn walked past the crowd and headed right for Joshua.Joshua said, "Why are you here?""I came to find you.""Me?" Joshua pointed at himself. "Did you see me on the TV?"
