Chapter 988: Someone Has To Be The Villain

Old Maddy looked at Justin again. “At that time, he became seriously injured trying to save Xander. He wanted to save Pete too, but he simply couldn’t walk or move anymore, so he called Mr. Hunt… To be honest, be it Xander or Pete, it didn’t matter even if they had died back then because having one child alive was enough. You can say that it’s all thanks to Caleb that both of them survived…”

Old Maddy lowered his head. “I didn’t know that he was Trueman at that time; I thought he was just a young man with a crush on Ms. Nora. It was only after I recovered my memory that I realized that he used to hang around Ms. Nora in the past.”

Nora was a little stunned. “Really?”

Old Maddy nodded. “I was under orders to protect you at that time, so I had been observing you the whole time. The young Ms. Nora was round and chubby. He often came over to play with you and also occasionally gave you food…”

Nora had fallen ill and started to gain weight when she was five years old.

She vaguely remembered that she did meet a little boy when she was eight or nine years old…

The little boy, who was about twelve or thirteen years old, had stood outside the villa and mocked her for being a little fatty.

But occasionally, when her stepmother didn’t cook for her, he would give her something to eat… He had liked teasing her.

However, he had stopped visiting her after a while…

So, she and Caleb had already met in the past?

And…

Caleb didn’t only save Xander this time; he had already saved Xander and Pete once back then!
