Naomi Kenway smiled and glanced at Ethan Shaw. "Alright, so you've all been hiding this from me for so long."
Ian rushed into Naomi Kenway's arms and nuzzled against her. "Mommy, you're so amazing! I was watching you accept the award from down there, and I was so moved I almost cried..."
"Really?" Naomi Kenway smiled, teasing him. "Where are the tears? Let me see."
Ian tilted his head up, letting Naomi Kenway get a good look. "See, Mommy? It's true, right?"
Naomi Kenway caressed his smooth, supple cheeks and couldn't resist leaning down to plant a kiss on them.
Everyone who passed by congratulated Naomi Kenway and praised her acting, and she responded to each of them with humility.
