Chapter 9

“Mr. Hunter Moore is the CEO of the Moore empire. Twenty–nine years old, 6’2ft tall, has a sister abroad, his Dad died three years ago and he took over the

family’s business.”

“What’s his relationship with Summer?” Xander couldn’t wait to hear the important part. That was the only thing he was interested in knowing when he asked his assistant to dig up about Hunter.

“I think he has a crush on….

“You think, or he has a crush on her?” Xander cut his assistant off impatiently, and the young man bowed as he nodded his head

Xander slowly clenched his fingers tightly into a fist as he stared into space while tapping the fingers of his other hand on the desk slowly.

“That…” He paused and bit his bottom lip, unable to complete his statement. How could she move on so easily as if nothing happened? How could she move on with another man when he was here struggling to let go even after everything she had done to him? Why couldn’t he still bring himself to stop thinking about her even after all the pain she had caused him by sleeping with another man and even allowing herself to get pregnant for him?

“Is there anything you want me to do, Sir?” His assistant asked him, and he closed his eyes briefly as he rested his back on the chair.

“Kill him, Kill that bastard,” Those were the only words screaming in his mind and head at that moment, and if killing was not an offense, he wouldn’t have minded taking Hunter’s life for having a crush on his woman.

“Nothing. I want to be left alone,”

“Yes, Sir,” His assistant walked out of his study, and he breathed out.

What has she been up to over the years that they were not together?

‘I cheated on you. I really did‘ Even though it had been days since she said those disgusting words to him, they still seemed like they were never going to leave his head. How could she admit to that right in front of him?
