Hearing that familiar voice, Xander's pupils shrank greatly.
Yet, a sense of longing suddenly welled up in him, and he said into the phone, "Daddy, I miss you."
Even if there really were problems with the way Trueman taught Xander, Xander had ultimately still been brought up by him during the past five years.
In the Hunt Manor, Xander had to be subjected to so many people's negative attitudes towards him. It was only with Trueman that he was the one and only person who mattered.
As soon as he said that, Trueman scoffed and said, "You miss me? Then why don't you come back? I will arrange for someone to pick you up."
Xander paused.
"…"
Upon seeing his reaction, Trueman said, "See? I knew you wouldn't come back once you've met your real parents! Even though you say that you miss me, your actions say otherwise, because you have already integrated into their family, right?"
Xander lowered his head. "Daddy, I won't forget you."
