Even an ordinary unrelated person wouldn't have been able to starve a four-year-old for a whole week!
Even he, Justin, had never abused Xander after meeting the child, despite how much he hated Trueman.
Ruth was badly frightened when she heard Justin's words. She swallowed. "W-what are you saying? I am his mother. If you don't believe me, then ask Xander!"
Xander was standing at the side and looking at Justin in confusion. He didn't understand why Justin had suddenly come in, or why he was suddenly so angry.
But he still thought of the instructions Trueman had given him before he came to the States.
He had told him to cooperate with Ruth. It would do as long as it didn't expose her identity.
Therefore, after he came to the States, he had never once called Ruth "Aunt Ruth". Ruth's question at this moment was putting him in a spot, though.
He didn't want to speak lies like Ruth was his mother.
