Charming Lady Hard to Chase After Being Dumped novel Chapter 621

The butler noticed Justin. When he was about to speak, Justin stopped him. He went up to the door and looked inside quietly.

He narrowed his eyes, a look of scrutiny forming within.

To be honest, fathers didn't have any resistance towards their children.

This was especially in the case of people who'd had children before. Thus, even if Xander was a little devil who had been raised by Trueman, and even if he had thrown the whole Hunt manor into a tizzy after his arrival, Justin nevertheless still gradually went from finding the boy a stranger to feeling a bit softhearted towards him.

But when he saw him sitting opposite Ruth, he still couldn't help but frown.

The child did not understand the difference between good and evil, let alone what was right and what wasn't. In addition, what he did after he returned to the Hunts had indeed angered him.

Yet when he thought of how he might be the third child he had with Nora, he would relent again.

In fact, he was actually worried about something. Should the child really be beyond hope, and should he be determined to take Trueman and Ruth's side, then even if he must imprison him for a lifetime, he still mustn't allow him to hurt his loved ones’

While he was contemplating, he saw Xander hand Ruth a carrot. He was telling her about the benefits of eating

carrots.

"Carrots contain a lot of nutrition. They also contain carotene and anthocyanins. Eating three a day can lower one's cholesterol levels by 10 to 20%. It can also effectively prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, which is very important to the human body..."

He prattled on and on about the benefits of eating carrots, but Ruth became angry instead. She said, "1 told you, I want bread! I want rice! I want carbohydrates!

Xander, I have already gone hungry for six days! If you continue like this, I will die!"

"No, you won't. Carrots have nutrients, they will keep you alive, so don't worry about it. Also, even if you really are dying, I will find someone to save you..."

Xander spoke with a lot of confidence.

Ruth: "..."

She was furious. She said, "Xander, tell me, are you doing this just to take revenge on me?! Because I made you eat carrots when you were younger?! The opportunity has come to you now, hasn't it? But don't forget this—I will go back sooner or later! When I do, I will tell your father what you did! As for you, there will eventually come a day where you'll fall into my clutches again!"

A touch of contemplation flashed across Xander's eyes, but his expression remained amicable. He held his chin with his hands and said, "What are you talking about? I don't understand."

"How can you not?! You did it on purpose! When you were four years old, my brother entrusted you to me and told me to take care of you for a week. During that one week, all I fed you were carrots every day. You must be holding a grudge against me because of that! You little brat, I didn't expect you to still remember all that even though so much time has already gone by. How dare you do this to me! You must be sick of living!"

As Ruth spoke, she went forward to hit him.

However, because she hadn't eaten for a long time, she was weak all over. The moment she moved a little, she fell straight onto the ground.

Xander stood up in front of her and rubbed his nose.

This subconscious action of his was actually exactly the same as Justin's!

At the door, Justin froze when he heard their conversation and saw Xander's subconscious action.
