He Scorned Me, Now I’m a CEO He Can’t Afford Chapter 22

That sentence obliterated Wyatt’s last shred of wishful thinking.

He stood there, drained of all strength.

His eyes were unfocused, his voice hoarse.

“Why?”

He stared at Ms. Thompson as if she were the only person left who could give him an answer.

“Why did she pretend to be like that? Why did she hide it all?”

Ms. Thompson looked at him, her expression shifting from surprise to something bordering on disbelief.

“Mr. Wyatt, have you not seen the news about Red Creek Ranch?” she asked.

Wyatt frowned.

“That’s just reporters making things up, isn’t it?”

“No,” Ms. Thompson said flatly. “A great deal of evidence has already been posted online. Lena disguised herself because she was ostracized and suppressed in her own home for years. If she hadn’t pretended, her life would have been much harder.”

Wyatt’s face changed.

That night, Wyatt didn’t sleep.

He sat in the dark, staring at his phone, reading through every article and post he had previously dismissed.
