Chapter 984: Why Should I Save Him?

The few of them looked at Caleb’s hand—he was holding a black inconspicuous plastic bag.

When they were getting into the van, Justin had deliberately relaxed the security checks so that Trueman could

bring things in. For Caleb to be holding that bag right now, this meant that…

The V16 was inside!

It seemed that Caleb hadn’t expected himself to pick up the bag either. He was dumbfounded for a while before he

finally followed everyone’s gazes and looked at the bag in his hand.

Confused, he broke into a frown and said hesitantly, “It’s true, I don’t really remember what happened at that

moment when I was getting off the van… So, the V16 is in the bag??”

Before Nora could speak, next to her, Lawrence stepped forward and reached out for the bag.

But Caleb’s arm suddenly moved, and he took a couple of steps back to dodge Lawrence.

All of a sudden, he sneered, his voice turning sharp and piercing. “I didn’t expect my dearest little brother to be so

skilled at manipulating people! Ha, I’ve lost this time! Still, do you guys think that you can get the V16 so easily just

with that little trick? Impossible!”

With his other hand that wasn’t holding the black bag, he propelled himself off the side of the van and jumped right

over to the other side. Just as everyone was about to go after him, Trueman suddenly stretched out his arm and

held the black bag he was holding near the edge of the cliff.

They were in the mountains.

Below the mountains was an abyss.

The drizzling rain made the area, including the bottom, foggy, and it was impossible for one to see how deep the

bottom went. If the V16 bottle dropped down the cliff, it might break!

Gene serums were liquids. Once the bottle broke, no one would be able to recover the contents, not even Nora.

“Stay back.”

A smug and brazen look came over Trueman’s countenance. He grinned at Nora and Justin and said, “If you come

any further, I’ll throw the bottle down!”

Nora and Justin didn’t dare to move anymore.

Under the few people’s watchful eyes, Trueman opened the black plastic bag.

There was indeed a serum bottle in the bag!

Nora had specially designed the bottle for the V16. With it, the V16 could leave the refrigerator for a short time

without the contents going bad. Nora looked at the bottle lid—it was intact.

Obviously, it had never been opened before.

All of this proved that the bottle in Trueman’s hand at the moment… was undoubtedly the V16!

She nodded at Justin.

Justin looked at Trueman. “If you think about it, Xander is your kin too… Can you really bear to completely fall out

with us?”

Although Trueman was technically Xander’s granduncle, Justin would never outright reveal the generational—and

therefore seniority—gap between the two. Thus, he had used the term “kin” instead.

Trueman sneered. “So? It wouldn’t matter even if he was my son. Didn’t the old geezer himself kill a hundred of his

own children?! Do you think that I, who grew up in an environment like that, would still have feelings for familial

relations?”

Justin cast his eyes down. “You are surrounded by my men. Do you think you can escape?”

Trueman didn’t care. “Who says I’m escaping? I’m going to inject the V16 into myself! Hahaha!”

Justin’s expression darkened. “Even if you inject it into yourself and increase your lifespan, believe it or not, I can

still kill you right here and now! You won’t live to see another day!”

Trueman narrowed his eyes. “There’s no point in saying all that to me. Once I inject the V16, you will never be able

to kill me—because you would have to draw a sample of my blood as soon as possible in order to study the gene

serum’s chemical composition. After all, Professor Anti here would never give up on saving Xander, would she?”

Trueman behaved as though he already had the whole situation under control. He sneered and said, “I’ve already

figured out all your tricks. If anyone dares to take a step forward, I will throw the gene serum down the cliff right

away. If worse comes to worst, all of us…”

The look in his eyes suddenly turned cold and sinister, and there was no warmth in his voice at all as he said, “…

can go to hell together!”

After saying that, he took a step forward.

“Stop!”

Nora shouted abruptly, afraid that he would really fall off the cliff with the gene serum.

He was already at the very edge of the cliff.

The corners of Trueman’s lips suddenly curled into a smile again. He said, “Nora, I told you that you would regret it

if you give the other V16 to Queenie. Let me ask you the same question now: do you regret what you’ve done?”

There were originally two gene serums.

Trueman didn’t really have any intention to kill Xander.

When he ordered Queenie to take both gene serums with her back then, one was for his own use, while he was

intending to use the other to force Nora into begging him for it…

But Nora had set up a trap instead. Not only had he almost been captured, but at the critical moment, she had also

given the other gene serum to Queenie.

Trueman really wanted to see Nora breaking down in tears right now.

Nora stayed where she was and said firmly, “I don’t regret anything.”

She would never regret saving her aunt.

Seeing that she was still being stubborn even at a time like this, Trueman was infuriated. He sneered and said,

“Then you can only watch helplessly as your son dies!”

“Trueman!” Nora called out to him. “Xander is your son too. He called you Daddy for five years. How about this?

Come back here and give me the gene serum. One drop—that’s all I will take. I will take only one drop for research,

okay?”

“No.”

Trueman smirked. “The dosage of this gene serum is meant for one person’s use. If a drop is missing, it may not

take effect correctly. Do you think I am stupid? Besides…”

He looked at Xander. “Why should I save him?”

However, the moment he did, Trueman’s pupils suddenly shrank.

Everyone present was currently looking at him. They had kept Xander well-protected in the innermost part of the

mountainous path, so no one ever thought that he would be in danger.

Nora and Justin were at the forefront, while Lawrence and Sean were also watching him.

The rest of the bodyguards all had their backs to Xander.

Therefore, no one noticed that a rock above Xander had suddenly come loose and was slowly rolling down…

Suddenly, a rock the size of Xander’s head fell from the sky!

But no one noticed anything!

Only Trueman, who had looked at Xander because of Nora’s mention of the boy, noticed it.

His pupils shrank, and a look of dilemma suddenly appeared on his countenance.

Should he save him?

Even if he called out now, by the time Nora and Justin reacted, it would definitely be too late…

Yet if he didn’t alert them about it, once the boulder fell and struck Xander’s head, the boy would die for sure!

He would die.

But wasn’t it better if he was dead?

Then nobody would fight him for the V16 anymore!

The corners of the man’s lips curled into a faint smile.

Go to hell!

But just as the thought formed in his mind…
