Xander was stunned.He chose not to tell Trueman the truth but instead replied, “It’s nothing.”
Then, he suddenly asked, “Daddy, do you think I really won’t be able to get along with my new
father?”
Trueman sneered, “Of course.Do you think Justin Hunt treats you well?”
Xander thought for a moment and answered, “Not too well, but not that bad either, I suppose!”
“Then what about Nora Smith?”
Xander tilted his head and answered, “She treats me okay too.She didn’t drive me away, nor did
she quarrel with Justin to get him to send me away.Instead, she’s very calm, as if she doesn’t care
about my existence.”
“Really?”
Trueman sounded a little unhappy.
“That woman sure is big-hearted.Or should I say that she doesn’t love Justin Hunt at all? Otherwise,
why wouldn’t she care that her man has another child?”
Xander touched his nose and suddenly asked, “Is there a chance that she thinks I’m cute, so she

“Heh,”
Trueman suddenly laughed.
“Do you think a woman would find her husband’s illegitimate child cute?”
Xander felt very uncomfortable being called an illegitimate child.But he didn’t get angry.
Because Trueman was right.He didn’t have a mother but was instead Justin’s child from some
unknown woman.
Didn’t that make him an illegitimate child? Trueman went on.
“Don’t be fooled by their superficial actions.Adults’ affairs are much more complicated than you
think.They don’t care about you at the moment only because you haven’t grown up; you’re not a
threat to Peter Hunt’s position yet.If you become outstanding enough to become the next heir to the
Hunts, do you think they would still treat you well?”
For a while, Xander didn’t speak.
Trueman scoffed, “Have you forgotten about Prince Charlie? He is also an illegitimate child.His
stepmother deliberately raised him into a good-for-nothing…That’s why you must find a way to drive
Pete out of the Hunts! This is the only way you can become Justin Hunt’s only son, understand?”
Xander narrowed his eyes.
“Yes, Daddy.”
“Are you here to play with Pete? What makes you think you can play with him? Are you worthy of
playing with him? He is the rightful son of the master of the household, what about you? You’re an
illegitimate child! You can’t even compare to Pete’s little finger!”
“Why are you keeping quiet? Are you stupid? Pete is the smartest of us all, you know! I bet your IQ
is not even a fraction of his.Also, do you know a birthday party will be held in a few days? Uncle
Justin is holding it so that he can announce to everyone that Cherry is his daughter! It has nothing
to do with an illegitimate child like you!”
The children were just repeating what they had secretly heard from the adults.
A boy named Xander had arrived, and everyone was talking about him.
When someone asked if Pete’s status would be threatened, everyone had immediately refuted him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNot only had Pete exhibited a high IQ since he was a baby, but his mother was even the young lady
of the Smiths.
With a status like hers, how would she not be able to protect Pete? Therefore, everyone looked
down on Xander.
The children’s words made Xander clench his fists.He stared at the kids in front of him.
Although he wanted very much to charge forward and scratch their faces, he couldn’t do that.
Every one of them was much stronger than him.
He focused on the leader of the group.
The kid was mocking him.
He said, “Did you grow up with cats and dogs? Do you sleep together with them? Then can you talk
like a dog?”
Xander narrowed his eyes and touched his nose.
Suddenly, he smiled and replied, “Of course.Not only can I talk like a dog, but I can even…”
He whispered something.
The leader of the children immediately took a step forward and asked curiously, “What else do you
know?”
