Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 1653

Xander knew he didn’t handle it well. But he didn’t want to hide it anymore since things had got so bad.

“I am a mutant, just like Laurence.”

Morty was completely shocked by his words. But he seemed to remember something and got up quickly to close the door. He looked around and made sure no one was around.

Lucas knew what was going on from the look on his face. He turned on his computer and started to watch the monitor.

This thing was so huge that Morty’s heart started racing.

Mutant?

How come?

Seeing Morty like that, Xander smiled.

“Mr. Morty, you don’t have to worry. I’ve already made plans for the worst. I didn’t plan to go back alive.”

“What are you talking about, grandpa!”

Lucas’s heart was aching.

They finally got together as a family and his mom had just found her parents. He would never allow anyone to ruin this!

Seeing his grandson being so protective, Xander smiled and patted his head, “Don’t worry, your grandpa won’t die so easily. After all, I have sacrificed a lot to be like this.”

His tone was kind of complicated.

Morty frowned and asked, “Mr. Don, what’s going on?”

“It all started 20 years ago.”

Xander told them everything about how the Shaffer family got involved and used Elvis as a cover.

Morty and Lucas were both furious after hearing that.

“They went too far! They had the guts to do an experiment on soldiers!”

Morty punched the chair.

Xander wasn’t so wrathful and said calmly, “The soldiers’ bodies are strong and the most suitable to be variated. And if they succeeded, they could beat hundreds of ordinary soldiers. There were originally more than 50 soldiers and only about a dozen survived. I watched them die painfully and there was nothing I could do. The reason I could survive was that the Green family took part in the gene research and had the statistics. At first, I didn’t know if that could be useful. But after several times of suffering, I finally found out something and told my buddies, which was why we stayed alive. I was the most successful mutant, probably because of my special blood. I have the appearance of a human but also have incredible power. But they are not so lucky. That is why the Shaffer family kidnapped Eaton. He thought Eaton’s eyes are special and Laurence’s blood once transfused into Nicole’s body. He is the best option for a mutant.”

“What an ass!”

Anyway, Morty thought it was unacceptable to use an infant for scientific study.

Lucas didn’t say anything but from the look on his face, they could tell how furious he was.

Seeing them like that, Xander laughed.

“Don’t be like that. At least my buddies and I are still alive, right? And I came here to ask Mr. Morty a favor.”

“Please tell me what it is.”

Morty looked quite serious.

Xander looked him in the eyes and said, “I hope that you can try your best to be the master and offer my buddies a good environment to live in. After all, their families still think they are dead and they can’t meet other people based on their conditions.”

Morty was stunned.

Xander just wanted him to handle this team of mutants?

“Please, tell me.”

“Take Joseph in.”

Lucas’ eyes were wide open.

“Grandpa, he’s gonna join the army?”

“No!”

Xander shook his head and said to Morty, “Give Joseph an identity in the military compound. This kid will definitely take on the road of medicine. He’s a genius and he is the only one I can trust to study the blood of the descendants of our family.”

Morty suddenly understood what Xander meant.

He was saying that the reason why he was a perfect mutant was because of the blood of the Don family. And that was probably why all of Nicole’s children were geniuses. So Xander wanted Joseph to do some research about this?

“Mr. Don, so you are saying that you want Joseph to do research on the mutant genes?”

“No. Human genes are constant and once they are changed, there must be risks. Take my buddies as an example, they were all strong, but they couldn’t live to 60 and would die in a painful way. I don’t want the soldiers of the next generation to take those risks. I just want Joseph to study what effects the blood of the Don family will have on physical conditions and we can use that to make nourishments for the soldiers.”

Morty understood what Xander meant and felt quite grateful.

He would still take the interest of the nation into consideration, from which he showed them the spirits of the Don family.

“Fine. I promise.”

After his response, a figure blurred outside and Xander went out to chase it immediately. Morty and Lucas’s faces went pale.

“Who was that?”
