The caller, who was too distressed, couldn't help stammering.
Xander panicked. "What happened to Daddy Trueman?"
Nora also looked over. Justin asked gravely, "What on earth happened?"
His voice seemed to have some magic power that calmed the caller, who then answered, "An accident has happened!"
…
In a hospital ward.
Nora and Justin stood at the door, both looking at the man on the bed.
Xander's eyes were all red from crying.
"Why are you crying?"
Trueman, who was on the bed, sounded annoyed. "You're a man, aren't you? I'm so tired of hearing you cry."
Xander stopped crying at once. He stepped forward and stretched out his little hand to touch Trueman's face. However, his face was all bandaged, and every part of it was injured.
Yes, that was right.
Trueman was disfigured.
