Chapter 680



.

There was no one on the road and no cars in sight.

At this moment, only the sound of the wind blowing in the distance could be heard. Nora’s voice seemed to have merged with the wind, which made Xander feel like he had misheard.

He looked at Nora in confusion. He hesitated and asked, “What did you say?”

Nora looked at the little boy.

Xander had been raised by Trueman from a young age. He had a strange and stubborn personality. Right now, his whole body felt twinges, as if he was resisting all the warmth of the outside world.

He turned to look at Pete. He was safe and had fallen asleep peacefully.

Nora hugged Pete with one hand and reached out to Xander with the other that was covered in blood. “Let’s get to know each other. I’m your mom.”

Xander stared at the wound on his palm.

He still felt like he had misheard. “What mom? Stepmom?”

Could it be that, since he had planned to save them, this woman was touched and had decided to adopt him?

The idea made him happy at first.

However, his happiness sank immediately.

He, Xander, wanted a mom, but he definitely wasn’t going to fight with the others for one…..

He took a step back and scoffed. “I don’t need anyone else’s sympathy, get out! I’m telling you, you don’t have to pretend in front of me, Justin isn’t here either, why do you have to?”

When Nora heard this, she sighed quietly.

This child was really too cautious.

She was about to explain when a car pulled up in the distance.

“Nora, don’t worry. I’m here to save you.”

Brenda shouted her watchword and jumped out of the car. When she saw the situation in front of her, she was stunned. “What, what’s going on?”

Nora: “…”

Brenda looked around. “Where is he?”

Nora asked curiously, “Who?”

“The hero who saved you. Nora, don’t tell me you killed those two people.”

“…No.”

Nora was a good citizen. How could she kill someone? She explained, “They killed themselves.”

Brenda had the others check the two dead bodyguards and confirmed that both had committed suicide by poisoning.

The person who was stabbed in the heart by Nora had swallowed the poison after being sent flying by Nora’s punch…so, at this point, it was unclear whether she was killed by that punch or by the poison.

How could Brenda care about this?

She just looked at Pete before looking at Xander. “Xander, what have you done to Pete? You’re so small, how can you be so mean?”

Xander laughed coldly at hearing this. He wrapped his arms around himself and stared at Brenda without saying a word.

Brenda was even more furious. “Tell me, who is your mom, how did she teach you to be like this, she’s too irresponsible! I have to find her and talk to her.”

Xander lowered his eyes. He was about to say that his mom was already dead when he heard Nora say again, “What do you want to talk about?”

Brenda said angrily, “I want to talk about the way Xander thinks, of course. How can he be so heartless at such a young age? He’s even hurt his stepbrother.”

Nora narrowed her eyes. “It’s not his fault.”

Before Nora had fought with the two bodyguards, she had seen with her own eyes that Xander planned to save her. Also, when she had gone to hug Pete, she had also noticed that the rope around his hand had loosened. This made her realize that something else must be going on.

Hearing this, Brenda leaned close to Nora’s ear. “Nora, don’t worry. In my heart, I only recognize you as my sister-in-law. However, I have to investigate who gave birth to Xander. Also, I definitely won’t let Pete suffer for this. If he’s uncomfortable, I’ll help him teach Xander a lesson.”

Nora: “…That’s not necessary. I’ll do it myself.”

Brenda: “?”

She was taken aback. “Aren’t you afraid of coming into conflict with my brother?”

Just as Brenda was thinking about this, she heard Nora say, “It’s the mom’s fault that the child wasn’t raised correctly. I’m his mom, so this doesn’t involve you.”

Brenda: “???!”

She was stunned.

She lowered her head to look at Xander and then looked back at Nora. Finally, she continued to ask incredulously, “Nora, you, you mean Xander is your son?”

“Yes.”

Nora didn’t want to touch Xander with her bloody hands, so she stepped in front of him.

Xander pursed his lips. “Hey, you stupid woman. I already told you I don’t need sympathy, and I don’t need you to be my stepmother either. You…”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Nora suddenly turn and look at him. She slowly squatted down and looked into his eyes. Then, she said word for word, “I am not your stepmother. I’m your birth mother…”

Xander was stunned.

This time, he was truly stunned.

He stared at Nora in disbelief. He just felt like the world was a fantasy.

Was he dreaming?

Was God listening to his inner thoughts and making him hallucinate?

Xander swallowed hard, the words coming out of his mouth were so awkward and proud, “So what if you say that? My mom died a long time ago, my dad said so. Do you have any proof?”
