At the sight of Xander, Nora's eyes lit up instantly.
Without waiting for Trueman's orders, she opened the door and jumped out of the car.
Xander was a little taken aback to see her. He stayed where he was and did not walk forward.
As they weren't too far from each other, Nora could hear their conversation clearly.
Trueman said impatiently, "Hurry up."
"I don't want to," Xander replied.
Trueman scoffed, "Are you trying to make me force you into it?"
Xander said stubbornly, "Daddy, you've changed! You've never spoken to me like this before!"
Trueman continued to lecture him. "Things are different now. I used to have all the time in the world to play with and foster a bond with you, but we need to hurry now!"
"… I don't dare to meet Mommy," said Xander.
"Because you've let her down?"
