Justin’s heart beat wildly. He did not expect Nora’s answer to be ‘Yes’, but he still said, “Okay, I’ll bring him to see you.”
“No, I’ll e to you.”
After Nora finished speaking, she hung up the phone. Justin did not know whether to laugh or cry. At the same time, he inexplicably began to feel uneasy.
He, who was always calm and collected, actually had a scary thought at this moment. What if this child was not his and Nora’s but really belonged to him and another woman?
Why didn’t Nora say a few more words earlier to let him know?
As he was in thought, he turned around and saw Xander looking at him curiously.
The child’s eyes were pure like a sheet of paper. However, when he looked over, Xander deliberately put on a calm and posed expression.
The little man had his own pride, but the innocence that occasionally leaked out made Justin purse his lips.
Justin admitted that the way Xander had secretly looked at him earlier had pierced his heart. It made him unable to hate or detest this child for a moment.
He sighed silently and walked to Xander. He touched his head and was about to speak when Xander said, “Did you get a call from a Tigress?”
Justin: “?”
Xander rolled his eyes. “Look at how scared you are!”
The hand Justin had used to touch Xander’s head suddenly felt very itchy. He really wanted to give him a good beating on his butt. He said, “I haven’t beaten a child before.”
Xander was stunned. He was about to speak when he said in a deep voice, “I hope you won’t give me a first time for it.”
Xander was frightened!
Justin pointed at the porridge on the table. “Eat.”
Xander looked down at the food on the table and picked up a spoon to eat.
Seeing that he had finally calmed down, Justin heaved a sigh of relief. When Xander was done eating, he said, “There will be a… beautiful aunt ing to see you later. I hope you can be more obedient, understand?”
Regardless of whether Xander was Nora’s son or not, Justin did not want Nora to have a bad impression of Xander.
Xander did not look like Cherry. She looked identical to Pete. Before he knew it, the two of them had already known each other for a while and developed deep feelings for each other. Xander was a plete stranger to Justin, and his personality was also very unpleasant.
To Justin, if Nora and Xander got into a fight, or if Xander angered Nora and the two of them could not live under the same roof…
Justin would definitely choose Nora and Cherry without hesitation.
When Xander heard him say this, he pursed his lips. “I’ve always been very obedient, okay?”
Justin felt that this child might not understand the word obedient well.
He sat beside him and sized him up.
The little fella did not sit properly. He liked to curl his legs and move them continuously. He was like a child with ADHD who could not sit still for a moment.
He wolfed down his food without any hesitation, like someone who had been hungry for a long time.
Pete had grown up with him. Food, clothing, and housing were all arranged in strict plans. Even at a young age, he was very noble.
Although Cherry was a little naughty, she was loved by everyone. Her words were especially pleasant to the ear, and her bearing was parable to that of a foreign princess.
He had heard from the little girl that her grandmother had hired a nanny for her. She was Princess Lucy’s family teacher at the palace in the UK.
paring Xander to those two-they were simply inparable.
Justin really felt a headache this time.
A person’s personality solidified at a young age. Later on in life, even if one could forcefully correct their habits, their personality could not be changed.
Under Justin’s troubled gaze, Xander finished his meal.
He threw his spoon on the table casually. The dining table and the floor around him were filled with the dishes he had eaten. He patted his tummy and sighed. “Frank isn’t here, unfortunately. Otherwise, the ground would have definitely been licked clean by him.”
Justin: “… Who’s Frank?” Xander: “My dog!”

Justin’s temples throbbed.
At this moment, Xander’s phone suddenly rang. He picked it up and Ruth’s voice came from the other end. “Xander, why are you still picking up the call? Have you left?”
Xander stuck out a finger and dug his ears. He placed it at the front and blew on it before saying slowly, “Yes!”
“That’s good, that’s very good!” Ruth’s voice was very weak. She was clearly extremely hungry. “Then what time is your flight? When can you get here?”
Xander raised his brows. “In the morning.”
“Morning? Then you’ll have to wait for a few hours. Why didn’t you ask your father to buy you the earliest flight?”
Xander: “I meant yesterday morning.”
“…” After a moment of silence, Ruth’s voice suddenly rose. “Yesterday morning? Then you haven’t boarded the plane yet? Or have you already arrived?”
“I’m here!”
Xander continued slowly.
Ruth: “!!”
She was really anxious this time. “Why didn’t you tell me?!”
“You didn’t ask me!”
Xander was bold and confident.
Ruth shouted, “Didn’t I tell you to contact me when you get here? Besides, I told you before, what do you have to do when you get here?”
Xander: “I have to send you food. I remember it!”
“… Then what are you doing now?”
Xander blinked his eyes. “I’m eating!”
“…What are you eating?! I’ve been hungry for five days! Hurry up and e down to bring some food to me!!”
“What’s the hurry?” Xander’s voice was still slow and roguish. “You haven’t starved to death yet, right?”
“Alright, alright. I’m ing. Stop screaming. You’re even worse than Frank.”
The corners of Justin’s mouth twitched as he listened by the side.
This brat’s ability to anger people was really good.
He did not go to the basement because he could already feel Ruth’s hysteria!
Then, Justin saw Xander hang up the phone and look at him. Just as he thought Xander was going to ask if he could go to the basement, he asked, “Which room am I staying in?”
Justin: “??”
At this moment, with a screech, the jeep stopped outside his villa. Nora strode in.
