Chapter 24

Chapter 24

Xander couldn’t hold back his fears as he sat on the chair beside the bed, while staring at his Mom. The mistake he made years ago had come haunting him. Something he never expected would happen to him..

“Mom… It seems like I’ve made a huge mistake… I don’t know what to do,” Ilis heart wrenched painfully as he reached for her hand and rubbed it gently. It felt like the whole world was against Xander at this moment. He wasn’t sure yet if those kids were his, but deep inside him, he was sure they could turn out to be his kids since he was never sterile,

“We were having a beautiful life, Mom… She was the best thing that ever happened to me. How could I have treated her that way? Why didn’t I listen to her?” He whispered as he rested his head on the bed, his cheeks soaked in his tears. As the memories of that night hit him hard, recalling how she cried, pleaded with him not to throw her out, tried to prove her innocence. The memories of everything made him only resent himself for never listening to her even if it was just that once.

The sound of his ringing phone disrupted him, and he sighed as he raised his head and sat up on the chair.

“Nick” was boldly written on the screen of his phone as he checked it out. He watched the phone ring until the call ended.

‘Sir, please answer my call. It’s something important A text popped on the screen of his phone as soon as the call ended, and barely five-seconds later, the phone started to ring with Nick’s number on the screen again. Xander hesitantly swiped the answer button and held the phone to his ear.

“What is it, Nick?” His voice was rough and weak as he wiped his tears with the back of his palm.

“Sir… I think Ms Summer is having a dinner date with Mr. Hunter tonight,” Xander’s eyebrows furrowed immediately.

“Dinner date?” Of course, he heard Nick correctly, but just wanted to confirm if he really didn’t misheard him,

“Yes, Sir…

“I want you to find out where they are meeting, and make a reservation in the whole restaurant. Make sure that ba st ard doesn’t go there,”

“But, Sir…”

“I want an answer in thirty minutes. Don’t keep me waiting!”

“What if he makes a reservation in another…”

“Then f uck ing stop him from showing up! To serve me! That’s what I f u ck ing employed you for!” Xander tried not to yell as he clenched his fingers around his phone.

“Yes, boss. I’ll do that,” The call ended afterwards, and he breathed out.
