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

‘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?
