Nora was taken aback.
To be honest, as early as Trueman had released Xander, she had wondered if Caleb knew
anything.
However, she hadn’t taken the initiative to ask him.
Caleb had returned to the mysterious organization with the sacred mission of the special
department on his shoulders.
She mustn’t bother him with her personal affairs, lest Caleb’s identity was exposed while
investigating them.
Thus, she had never asked him about it, planning to look into it herself.
Besides, Lily was already comparing their DNA and would succeed sooner or later.
It was just a matter of time.
But unexpectedly, Caleb had taken the initiative to call her ? A touch of gratitude rose from the
bottom of Nora’s heart, and she asked, “What is the truth?”
Caleb’s voice was very low—obviously, he was making the call in secret.
“According to my investigations, that child has been hidden by Trueman in the headquarters all this
time, so I have never seen him before.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBut when Trueman was talking with him on the phone, he accidentally let something slip.
He told Xander to try his best to save his Aunt Ruth, but the child instead said, ‘Why? She didn’t
give birth to me nor has she ever taken care of me.Am I supposed to save her just because she is
your sister?’
Trueman then said, ‘Then at least make sure that she doesn’t die’ Xander agreed and then he said,
‘Don’t worry, I won’t give it away.At the very least, in my biological father’s eyes, Aunt Ruth is my
mother: Therefore, based on this, I would think that Ruth is not his mother”
Nora cast her eyes down.
To be honest, she had already guessed as much.
Ruth and Xander’s DNA match was only 20%.
Even though Xander might have been injected with the gene serum, modifying his genes, it was still
impossible for his DNA to change so drastically.
Therefore, at the very least, it was impossible for Ruth to be his mother.
Now that Caleb had confirmed it, they could get rid of Ruth first! Trueman didn’t seem to really care
about whether his sister lived or not anyway.
With that in mind, Nora thanked Caleb over the phone.
“Thanks.I’ll treat you to dinner when you return.”
“Okay.”
Caleb’s voice became a lot more relaxed.
After a brief silence, he suddenly said, “Nora…Ms.Smith, can I call you that?”
“_..Yes, you can.”
He had already done so anyway.
Nora liked that he didn’t take the liberty to act on his own in everything he did.
At the very least, if Justin had given the Livingstones a warning, Helen might not even be able to
divorce him anymore.
She smiled and said, “Nah, you don’t have to warn them about it.We already have a plan.But if I
cause the Livingstones to be utterly disgraced, will you be put in a spot, Mr.Hunt?”
To be honest, he would indeed be very much put in a spot.
After all, Mrs.Hunt would come crying to him.
But since Nora had asked, then the answer could only be: “No, it won’t.”
Thomas was Mrs.Hunt’s grandnephew.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBy right, now that Mrs.Hunt’s immediate family members were gone, the people from
Mrs.Livingstone’s generation should be the only ones staying in contact with her.
And once Mrs.Hunt was gone as well, the two families would no longer have any relations with each
other.
However, Mrs.Hunt cared for her maiden family, and on top of that, Thomas was always visiting.
That was how he had forcibly made it look as if the two families shared a close relationship with
each other.
For Mrs.Hunt’s sake, Justin was also willing to take care of the Livingstones a little.
However, that was all just charity on his part.
Since the Livingstones were blind enough to offend Nora, then he didn’t need to care about such
things anymore.
Justin was very clear about who mattered and who he should keep dear.
Nevertheless, he should still ask for credit where it was due.
Justin said straightforwardly, “Even if Grandma hits me with a bat, I still won’t be put in a spot.”
Nora:”…”
Come to think about it, it seemed like Justin also had it pretty tough being caught in between her
and Mrs.Hunt.
Fortunately, he still chose to stand firmly on her side.
Satisfied, Nora uttered, “Yeah.”
