She Becomes Glamorous After The Engagement Annulment novel Chapter 990

Chapter 990: Two More Things

“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?!”

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.”

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?

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.”

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.”

After realizing that the mysterious organization belonged to the Imperial League, Justin had cut off all of the mysterious organization’s income sources.

Nora looked at the suitcase behind her, as well as at Ian whose wheelchair was being pushed by a caretaker. With a wave, she said, “Let’s go back!”

After they chartered a plane back to the United States, they went back to the Smiths’ residence first.

Joel and Tanya, who had already heard the news, were standing outside the door with smiles on their faces as they waited for them. The group reunited and chatted away.

Mia had already hopped over to Pete. The two little ones seemed to have endless things to talk about.

The group, however, had no idea that a “coup” was currently taking place at the Hunts’ residence.

Mrs. Hunt, whose hair had already turned white, was seated in the living room at the moment and watching the crowd there…

Everyone was questioning her.

“Why hasn’t Ms. Smith come to work for so long?”

“As expected, women really can’t do it after all? How can we support her when she doesn’t even show up?”

“Ma’am, Pete is still young, but Ms. Smith is so unreliable… Besides, as far as we know, she and Mr. Hunt are not legally married yet. In the eyes of the law, she doesn’t even qualify to manage the company!”

“Yes, that’s right. Therefore, we still recommend letting Raymond Hunt’s family take over the company. Ma’am, you must look at the big picture! Of course, if Raymond Hunt’s family can’t do it, then let’s get Herman back. He is Pete’s grandfather and Mr. Hunt’s father after all! He will never harm Pete!”

“All of us here are either too old or too young, yet Ms. Smith, the only one who can manage the company, isn’t legally married to Mr. Hunt. Ma’am, for the sake of the Hunts, make the call to get Herman back first!”

In the midst of the heated discussion, a thrilled Fanny, the housekeeper, rushed into the living room!!
