Charming Lady Hard to Chase After Being Dumped novel Chapter 659

Xander looked at the man in front of him.

He looked a little dazed, and his big dark eyes were filled with confusion and perplexity.

When the man squatted down to speak with him, he looked straight at him. Every time Daddy Trueman spoke with him, he always looked at him from above, making him feel as if he was ordering him about.

But the tyrant was not like that.

His behavior made him feel respected.

Xander swallowed. He glanced at Pete again and then, he suddenly said, "I came to tell you about my birthday."

When Justin heard this, his eyes narrowed and he asked, "When is it?"

Xander was about to answer when his cell phone suddenly rang, interrupting him.

Xander took out his cell phone, upon which he saw the word "Daddy" on the screen—it was Trueman. He was a little surprised. When he answered the phone, Trueman said, "I heard someone bullied you at the Hunts'?"

Xander turned and glanced at Justin. He grinned and said, "I bit his ear off!"

"Good job."

Trueman let out a deep chuckle and said, "As expected of the son I brought up!"

His father's praise gave Xander a sense of accomplishment. As soon as he lifted his little chin, he heard Trueman ask, "How did Justin deal with the

situation after you bit him?"

Xander looked at Justin. Then, his big dark eyes swiveled around. As though he was avoiding the question, he answered, "What else can he do? Just like that, I guess. Daddy, the food here is pretty nice."

When Trueman heard this, he fell silent for a moment. Then, he smiled and said, "If it tastes good, then just stay there a few more days."

Xander nodded. "Okay."

He had made an agreement with Trueman before he came. They had agreed that for the sake of his rabbits, cats, and dogs, he would only stay in the United States for a maximum of ten days.

When he first came, he had been very resistant.

But now, just a moment ago, he suddenly felt that it would be nice to stay here too.

As soon as the thought formed, he heard Trueman say, "Oh, pass the phone to your father. I want to tell him something and have him take good care of you."

Although Xander felt that it wasn't appropriate to do that, he had never gone against Trueman's orders. Thus, he looked at Justin and said, "Here."

Justin had been observing him the whole time.

In the basement the other time, he had heard that Ruth had mistreated him. Thus, he didn't know how Trueman treated the child. But judging from the way he spoke on the phone, it seemed that his relationship with Trueman was pretty good.

Xander was smart. That was why he was able to bully Ruth. Judging from how he and Trueman got along, at the very least, Trueman likely did not abuse him.

The discovery made Justin feel a little more comfortable. He answered the phone, but because he didn't want the children to hear their conversation, he walked to the side and said softly, "Hello."

"Mr. Hunt, my sister is dead."

There was some faint amusement in Trueman's voice when he said that, as though he had never once cared whether Ruth lived or died.

Justin lowered his eyes. "Oh? She left the country after I released her. What happened next has nothing to do with me."
