Chapter 1338 - Chapter 1338 Chapter 1338 Public Enemy of the Nation
Chapter 1338: Chapter 1,338: Public Enemy of the Nation Chapter 1338: Chapter 1,338: Public Enemy of the Nation “No problem.” Xaviera Evans hooked a mocking smile at the corner of her mouth, “If it wasn’t for that incident, Mr. Hughes could indeed be fearless. Even if I can’t be dealt with now, there will always be a chance one day. But…”
Cory Hughes suddenly gasped for breath, his heart constricting.
But what? Why did Xaviera say this with a mocking smile in her eyes? She’s just a woman, so why wasn’t she afraid when she heard about someone’s revenge?
Xaviera blinked in surprise and looked at him, “Mr. Hughes, don’t you know what that incident is? That’s really sad.”
What is that incident?
What happened that made him unable to take revenge on Xaviera? Why was she so calm about it?
Cory Hughes frowned, completely clueless about what had happened, but feeling a strange tension.
Indeed, he couldn’t touch Xaviera now, but he didn’t believe that he’d never have a chance in the future. What made her so sure they wouldn’t be able to do anything?
Xaviera smiled at Cory Hughes and then said leisurely, “Mr. Hughes, I’m sorry for starting a live stream without your consent.”
“From the moment I entered the door, everything that has happened in the Hughes family has been broadcasted live by the journalist next to me. Zora Hughes scheming to marry me off to Mr. Taylor, Lillian Hughes being Zora’s biological mother, the nauseating deal between the Brooke family and the Hughes family, all of it has been broadcasted!”
“Now, everyone knows the ugly face of the Hughes family, how you trafficked people for money. Who would do business with such a filthy family?”
As Xaviera spoke word by word, Cory’s body grew colder, and he became more rigid, as if he would lose his breath in the next second.
Live stream?
Xaviera said there was a live stream going on next to her? No wonder she had been so calm from the moment she entered. She had already planned everything and could expose it all even without Caleb Mamet’s help.
Despite being accustomed to big scenes, Cory couldn’t calm down at this moment. The muscles of his face trembled, his eyes were splitting with rage, and a trace of despair emerged in his gaze.
He had thought that this scene would only happen within the walls of the Hughes family, so no one would know. That’s why he discussed the matter with Caleb Mamet and admitted to the family’s scandal openly, but he didn’t expect…
“What’s the matter? Mr. Hughes, you’re speechless?” Xaviera laughed casually, “I’m not a fool. Knowing your intentions, why would I come to the Hughes family without any preparations? Mr. Hughes, have you underestimated me too much?”
Cory’s ears buzzed, and he could no longer hear what Xaviera was saying. He only knew the live stream had started. If it were true, the Hughes family’s revival would be impossible. Their products would be boycotted by everyone, and the family would go bankrupt.
“Xaviera Evans!” Cory spat out the name from his throat, the roar of rage consuming his entire strength.
“I’m not deaf. Please, Mr. Hughes, lower your voice.” Xaviera looked at him with a smile, “It’s better for you to think about how to clean up this mess in your family!”
With that, the assistant rushed in from outside the door, holding a messy stack of documents.
Within this half-hour, the Hughes family had become the public enemy, and the whole internet was boycotting them.
The live stream was broadcasted using Elijah Flack’s account, which had tens of millions of followers, so the impact was naturally extraordinary.
“Mr. Hughes, it’s terrible! Our company can’t hold on any longer! Miss Hughes has also been completely banned on the internet. We originally had a chance to turn things around, but now there’s no chance at all!”
“Moreover, the Hughes Group has been sued by other companies. Not only do we have to pay a huge amount in penalties, but someone also reported you for human trafficking. I guess the police will be coming to arrest people very soon.”
At that moment, Cory’s mind exploded, and his chest felt suffocated.
