She Becomes Glamorous After The Engagement Annulment novel Chapter 992

Chapter 992: Will Xander Die?

A look of disbelief appeared on the faces of everyone who heard the news, and all of them looked at Nora. Even Mrs. Hunt looked shocked.

Nora looked at Justin and nodded. “Yes.”

As Nora’s voice rang out, the glass in Mrs. Hunt’s hand dropped onto the floor.

She looked at Xander with a complicated look.

To be honest, Mrs. Hunt didn’t like the boy very much.

She had watched Pete, an honest and upright boy, grow up. However, from the day Xander had first come to their door, he had been awkward and contrary, and behaved in a terribly detestable way.

He was not a boy who behaved properly and followed the rules, which made him an outlier in Mrs. Hunt’s eyes.

However, Mrs. Hunt did not think that Xander would suddenly die so soon.

“It’s okay.”

Unexpectedly, Xander gave them a smile that looked as though he had seen through life itself and said, “I don’t feel any pain or discomfort now. See, I look totally fine, right? I supposedly have a month left to live, but who knows? At least I’m alright now! Besides, I can even be the ring-bearer at Mommy and Daddy’s wedding!”

When the others saw his smile, they could only force themselves to smile as well.

Surprisingly, it was Xander who rushed up to Pete and Cherry and said, “Daddy Trueman has told me that I’m actually the eldest! Both of you must acknowledge me as the big brother from now on, get it?”

Even Xander’s speech had become a little more cheerful.

It was as though he had really let go of all the gloominess from the past five years.

Pete looked him in the eye and replied, “Got it. You’re my elder brother.”

As they said, only children and fools spoke the truth.

Nora looked at them and sighed.

In spite of the depressing atmosphere, though, all the Hunts and Smiths showed an unprecedented fighting spirit.

Xander was dying.

The boy’s only wish was for his parents to get married and to attend their wedding…

The thought of it made everyone’s hearts ache.

Pete frowned. “Probably me. After all, one’s consciousness lies in the brain, which would be mine…”

Xander rested his chin on his hand. “I think so too. Didn’t someone go through a head transplant surgery in hopes of survival?”

Nora: “…”

The corners of her lips spasmed, and she ignored the two little boys’ wild imaginations. But the moment she exited the room, she saw Cherry looking at her with her eyes red.

“Mommy, will Xander really die?”

After asking the question, Cherry looked at her without blinking once.

Nora: “…”

Just as she was thinking about how she should answer the question, Cherry suddenly wiped her tears and said, “I know the answer now.”

Then, the little girl turned around and ran away.

Nora stared after her, the corners of her lips spasming.

The little girl had been by her side since she was a baby. A single look from her was all it took for Cherry to know what she was thinking.
