Charming Lady Hard To Chase After Being Dumped novel Chapter 990

"Why...? Why did you inject me with the V16?!"

In the van on its way home, Caleb, who had regained consciousness, couldn't help but glare at Justin. "I didn't want to live. Besides, I'm already thirty, whereas Xander is only five! Why did you give me the V16?!"

Xander was seated next to him, his short legs dangling off the seat as he kept his head down.

Nora looked ahead.

Justin ignored him.

The furious Caleb grabbed Justin's collar. "I've heard the specifics of what happened. Nora had decided to give the V16 to Xander! You were the one who stopped her! Why? Is it really only because you don't want them to feel guilty? But he's your son! Justin, is your heart made of stone? Or do you share the same mindset as that old geezer and feel that you can just father more children? Do you think that you already have enough children, so it doesn't matter even if you abandon one?"

He clenched his fists agitatedly, his eyes filled with bloodthirst as he stared at Justin.

Justin, whose head was lowered, reached over and pried off Caleb's fingers clutching his clothes one by one. He looked at Xander and asked, "Xander, do you regret it?"

Xander shook his head. "No, I don't."

Justin pointed at him and said to Caleb, "Did you see that? Now, that's my son! This is his choice! Rather than living in guilt and suffering for the rest of his life, it is better that he goes with a blast instead!"

Caleb stared at him in astonishment. Only after a while did he spit out contemptuously, "You... Your heart must be made of stone!"

Xander took his hand. "Daddy Trueman, don't blame Daddy. I am a man. If I was in the hospital at that time, I would have made the same choice as Daddy too. That's what a real man should do!"

He raised his chin slightly.

Caleb looked at him. After a while, he finally heaved a sigh and touched his hair. "You're only five. You're no man..."

Xander didn't speak anymore.

Caleb clenched his fists and looked at Nora. "Nora, what about you? Why did you let him convince you?"

Why?

Because the look in Justin's eyes at that time had told her to trust him!

Even though Justin still hadn't given her an explanation, Nora didn't say much. She merely turned her head and looked out the window.

If there was someone in this world whom she could trust unconditionally, it was undoubtedly Justin.

Before she knew it, after going through so much together, it was only at this moment that Nora realized that she was leaving herself this unguarded against him.

While she was thinking, Caleb said, "By saving me, you've also saved Trueman. He..."

"No.-

Nora looked at him intently. "I will cure you of your schizophrenia and wipe him out completely!"

Her words made Caleb's eyes light up. "Can... can you really do it?"

Nora nodded. "But this needs time. It'll take a month at the earliest and half a year at the longest. Therefore, you'll have to go back to the States with me."

"Go back to the States?"

Caleb was stunned. "Are you guys going back to the States?"

But the path they were taking was clearly the way to Queenie's manor.

They were already back from the border.

Nora nodded. She looked at Xander with a tender glow in her eyes and said, "We've settled everything, so it's time for us to go home... to prepare for the wedding."
