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 can't bear to do anything to me?"

"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.
