Chapter 22

Xander Hughes secret leaked by his ex-wife’

‘The popular business tycoon, Xander Hughes was not only i

married which was kept a secret, but was sterile’ Xander’s eyes blinked a few times as

he slowly scrolled through his phone, and the displeasing comments he saw made his skin crawl and his stomach grumbled ragingly.

“Xander must’ve been a horrible man. I’m sure his wife had no idea he was sterile’

I heard his family bullied her and she still stayed by his side because she loved him. Xander must really be crazy

“She should’ve left his a ss earlier, Gosh! I can’t stand men like that Slowly, he clenched his fingers tightly around his phone as he scrolled through the post on the internet and the terrible comments that did nothing but bash him.

He dropped his phone on the desk and ran his fingers through his hair frustratingly. He should’ve controlled his emotions when he saw them. He shouldn’t have acted recklessly, and who knows, maybe this would never have happened.

The office telephone started to ring, but he hesitated before he picked it up and held it to his ear.

“Sir, Mr. Hughes is here to see

“Hmm… Send him in,” The call disconnected almost immediately, and he dropped the phone back on the desk.

Xander sat behind his desk, waiting to welcome his Dad and get the nagging of his life. Something he was sure he wouldn’t be able to escape.

The door finally opened, and Mr. Hughes walked inside.

“What is the meaning of the nonsense I’m seeing on the internet, Xander? What is going on?” The man who had a striking resemblance with Xander, snarled impatiently as soon as he walked inside the office.
