Charming Lady Hard to Chase After Being Dumped novel Chapter 644

Old Maddy said, "I don't know why he was chosen, but your mother told us at the time to choose the smartest one. That's because the serum she gave you improved one's genes. Even if it was passed on to the child, their genes wouldn't be modified much if the child was born very smart. This way, if the serum is unable to do what it's supposed to, it will become ineffective. I would think that is likely the reason why."

Nora:"..."

So, Justin had been chosen because of his high IQ?

The corners of Nora's lips spasmed.

But she felt that the answer didn't seem unacceptable either.

After all, Cherry's IQ was slightly higher than Pete's, probably because half of a female's genes were inherited from the father.

"Then, here's my last question."

Nora stared hard at Old Maddy. "If I gave birth to more children, would the amount of serum distributed to each child have become smaller, thereby making it safer for them?"

If her theory was correct, then she could conclude that she had indeed given birth to triplets!

Her mother must have given her the triplet-making drug in order to let the three children share that bit of gene serum. If so, Xander would be her son!

However, Old Maddy suddenly smiled and answered, "Of

course not."

He sighed and said, "Your mother only injected you with a very low dosage of serum in the first place. The number of children you gave birth to didn't affect anything. It can be said that the serum could not bring much harm to the child after passing through your body."

Nora was stunned.

Why was the answer different from what she had imagined?!

She frowned, perplexed as to how things had turned out this way.

While she was thinking, Old Maddy spoke up again. "Besides, your mother once said that the Andersons have genes for having twins, so it all depended on your luck. Whether you have twins or just one child, they are all still your children."

Nora looked closely at Old Maddy for a long while. In the end, she lowered her eyes. "I see."

She went out of the room to see Lily standing there and nodding off as she leaned against the wall.

Nora asked, "How long has it been since you last slept?"

Lily, who was taller than her, immediately replied, "Twenty hours, I guess?"

Nora uttered an "oh" and then said, "Get some rest."

Those three words made Lily all excited, but unexpectedly, she then heard Nora say, "Once you're rested, try to restore Xander's ONA data as soon as

possible."

Lily:

If she wanted it "as soon as possible", how was she going to get a good rest?!

She couldn't help but complain, "Boss, you are so impractical. Instead of saying so much, it's better that you just give me a pay raise instead."

Nora looked at her curiously. "Are you very short of money?"

"Not really-"

Lily blinked and replied, "It's mainly because it costs quite a lot to support young men. Besides, that man in question is even your cousin. Boss, how much do the Smiths give to Quentin each month? Can we negotiate a little and have them give him a bit less in the future? If not, I won't have enough to keep him as my 'mistress'!"

Nora:"..."

She patted Lily on the shoulder. Then, she turned and left.

When she returned to the Smiths, to her surprise, she found Samuel seated in the living room. Seeing her, he immediately came forward with an ingratiating smile and said, "Nora, can you talk to Joel and have him release your Grandaunt Sue?"

Nora:"?"

She looked at Joel, only to see him as smiley as ever as he said, "Granduncle Samuel, what are you saying? Nora has nothing to do with this."

As he spoke, he gave her a look.
