Charming Lady Hard to Chase After Being Dumped novel Chapter 983

Early next morning, the group sat nearby the dining table.

Caleb had a relatively good sleep. He looked at Justin, who had dark circles under his eyes. Obviously, he hadn't slept well the previous night.

Winnie had already made breakfast and was placing it on the dining table.

After Nora brought Xander over, the few of them took their seats.

Caleb said deliberately, "Mr. Hunt... No, I should be calling you Justin instead, since you're my younger brother. Did Trueman appear last night?"

Justin, who had a very grumpy look on his face, replied, "No, he didn't."

Nora looked at Justin and asked, "You mentioned last night that you've thought of a solution. What is it?"

Justin frowned and said, "Let's talk about it after we go back home. I have a device that should be able to provoke Trueman into showing up..."

Nora was taken aback. "Go home?"

Justin's expression turned a little sullen at once. He nodded and said, "Yeah. We can't possibly stay here for the rest of our lives, right?"

It was only after he spoke that he realized that he was being rather grouchy. Thus, he immediately explained, "Lawrence and Sean have already conducted a thorough search here last night, and they still did not find the V16 even after flipping the place over. Therefore, I am sure that Trueman must have hidden the V16 in the city, so let's go back."

His words made Caleb frown. Nevertheless, he took a sandwich and started to eat as he said, "Alright."

Nora didn't think much about it. After pouring some milk into a bowl of cereal and passing it to Xander, she looked at Caleb and said, "I can treat schizophrenia. If Justin's device doesn't work, then we'll do it the troublesome way and just have you take some medicine to drag Trueman out... I believe he will appear for sure once it's time to administer the V16."

Caleb thought for a moment and then nodded. "You are right."

Xander looked at Nora with his big round eyes. Then, he looked at Justin before finally looking at Caleb. He said, "Daddy..."

"What's wrong?"

Justin asked subconsciously. However, he then realized that Xander's words were directed at Caleb, and his expression turned even grumpier.

As for Caleb, he didn't react immediately. He blanked out for a moment before he finally looked at Xander and asked, "Are you talking to me?"

Xander looked at Nora and shook his head.

Nora said with a smile, "I told him to do it."

Her words made both Justin and Caleb look at her.

Justin had an extremely awful look on his face, whereas Caleb's eyes lit up a little.

But the next moment, Nora said, "Trueman impersonated you the last time. I was worried that Trueman had already appeared and was impersonating you, so I got Xander to do a small test."

So, that was what they were up to.

Justin's expression softened.

Caleb said helplessly, "It really is me. How about this? Let's think of a secret code."

Nora thought for a moment and then nodded. "Okay, that works too."

The two decided on a secret code.

After breakfast, the group packed their things. Under Justin's watch, everyone left the house in a grand fashion.

Needless to say, Caleb took the same vehicle as Justin, Nora, and Xander.
