Justinâs heart was pounding. He didnât expect Noraâs answer to be âYes,â but he still said, âOkay, Iâll take him to see you.â
âNo, Iâll come see you.â
When Nora finished speaking, she hung up the phone. Justin didnât know whether to laugh or cry. At the same time, he inexplicably began to feel uneasy.
He, who was always calm and collected, had a frightening thought at that moment. What if this child was not his and Noraâs, but really his and another womanâs?
Why didnât Nora say a few more words sooner to let him know?
As he thought, he turned and saw Xander looking at him curiously.
The boyâs eyes were pure as a sheet of paper. However, when he peered out, Xander deliberately showed a calm, composed expression.
The little boy had a pride of his own, but the innocence that occasionally seeped through made Justin pursed 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 loathe that boy for a moment.
He sighed quietly and walked over to Xander. He touched his head and was about to speak when Xander said, âDid you get a call from a Tigress?â.
Justin: â?â
Xander rolled his eyes. âLook how scared you are!â
The hand Justin had used to touch Xanderâs head suddenly felt very itchy. He really wanted to spank his ass. He said, âI havenât spanked a kid before.â
Xander was stunned. He was about to speak when he said in a deep voice, âI hope youâre not giving me cause for a first time.â
Xander was startled.
Justin pointed to the porridge on the table. âEat.â
Xander looked at the food on the table and picked up a spoon to eat.
Seeing that he had finally calmed down, Justin let out a sigh of relief. When Xander finished eating, he said, âLater a⦠beautiful aunt will be coming to see you. I hope you can be more obedient, understand?â.
Whether Xander was Noraâs son or not, Justin didnât want Nora to get the wrong impression of Xander.
Xander didnât look like Cherry. He looked exactly like Pete. Before they knew it, the two had known each other for a long time and had developed deep feelings for each other. Xander was a complete stranger to Justin, and his personality was also very off-putting.
For Justin, if Nora and Xander got into a fight, or if Xander made Nora angry and the two couldnât live under the same roofâ¦.
Justin would definitely choose Nora and Cherry without hesitation.
When Xander heard him say this, he pursed his lips. âIâve always been very obedient, okay?â
Justin thought that this boy might not quite understand the word obedient.
He sat down next to him and assessed him.
The little boy didnât sit well. He liked to curl his legs up and move them continuously. He was like an ADHD child who could not sit still for a moment.
He gobbled his food without hesitation, like someone who has been hungry for a long time.
Pete had grown up with him. Food, clothing and housing were arranged in strict plans. Even at a young age, he was very noble.
Although Cherry was a bit mischievous, she was loved by all. Her words were especially pleasing to the ear, and her bearing was comparable to that of a foreign princess.
I had heard the girl say that her grandmother had hired a nanny for her. She was the teacher of Princess Lucyâs family at the palace in the United Kingdom.
Comparing Xander to those two, they were simply incomparable.
This time Justin really felt a headache.
A personâs personality is cemented at an early age. Later in life, even if one could forcibly correct their habits, their personality could not be changed.
Under Justinâs concerned gaze, Xander finished his meal.
He tossed the spoon on the table casually. The dining room table and the floor around him were littered with the dishes he had eaten. He patted his belly and sighed. âFrank isnât here, unfortunately. Otherwise, Iâm sure the floor would have been licked clean by him.â
Justin: ââ¦Whoâs Frank?â
Xander: âMy dog!â
Justinâs temples were throbbing.
Just then, Xanderâs phone suddenly rang. He picked it up and Ruthâs voice was heard on the other end. âXander, why are you still taking the call, are you gone?â
Xander stuck out a finger and pricked up his ears. He placed it in front and blew on it before slowly saying, âYes!â.
âThatâs good, thatâs very good!â Ruthâs voice was very weak. It was clear she was very hungry. âSo, what time is your flight, when will you arrive?â
Xander raised his eyebrows. âIn the morning.â
âIn the morning? Then youâll have to wait a few hours. Why didnât you ask your dad to buy you an earlier flight?â
Xander: âI meant yesterday morning.â
ââ¦â After a moment of silence, Ruthâs voice suddenly rose. âYesterday morning? So, you havenât boarded the plane yet? Or have you already arrived?â
âIâm here!â
Xander continued slowly.
Ruth: â!â
This time she was really anxious. âWhy didnât you tell me!â
âYou didnât ask me!â
Xander was bold and confident.
Ruth yelled, âDidnât I tell you to contact me when you arrived? Besides, I told you before, what do you have to do when you arrive?â.
Xander: âI have to send you food. I remember.â
ââ¦So what do you do now?â
Xander blinked his eyes. âIâm eating!â
ââ¦What are you eating, Iâve been hungry for five days! Hurry up and come down and get me some food!â
âWhatâs the hurry?â Xanderâs voice was still slow and mischievous. âYou havenât starved yet, have you?
All right, all right. Iâm coming. Stop yelling. Youâre even worse than Frank.â
The corners of Justinâs mouth twitched as he listened next door.
This bratâs ability to piss people off was really good.
He didnât go to the basement because he could already sense Ruthâs hysteria.
Then, Justin saw Xander hang up the phone and look at him. Just when he thought Xander was going to ask him if he could go to the basement, he asked, âWhich room am I going to stay in?â.
Justin: â?â
Just then, with a screech, the jeep pulled up in front of their villa. Nora came striding in.
