Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 1621

Zavier had nearly forgotten how musically gifted the girl was—not just skilled in a variety of instruments, but truly masterful in each one. Such a talent would undoubtedly be courted by the top universities far and wide. Yet, it was a pity; she had no real choice in the marriage matter, not even the liberty to attend the school of her dreams.

Her violin playing, though exquisite, was unappreciated for its true worth. She was merely a bargaining chip for the Blue family.

Just like Zavier. How tragic!

Having said his piece, Zavier turned to leave.

Skyler called out to him in desperation, "Zavier..."

Glancing at his watch, Zavier had a game to get to and no time for idle chit-chat. "Spit it out, then."d2

Skyler, with earnest clarity, said, "Everything I've told you today comes straight from the heart. I hope we can live together in peace."

She was acutely aware of her predicament. Being sent to the Capital by the Blue family meant that she was no longer their daughter. From now on, her fate, for better or worse, was tied to the Rivera family. And within the Rivera family, her destiny was linked to Zavier. Only by getting along with this Mr. Zavier could she hope for better days.

Perhaps one day, she might attain her freedom. Just how far off that freedom was, she couldn't be sure. But she wouldn't miss even the slimmest chance.

Zavier looked at her with a cold smile. "Are you trying to get on my good side?"

Skyler was frank. "Yes."

"Then we'll see how you do," he said, walking away.

The butler frowned slightly at the news but didn't utter any displeasure, "Dinner's ready, and Madam has asked for your presence."

"Alright," Skyler nodded, following the butler back to the house.

After a few steps, the butler's voice reached her again. "Miss Skyler, I'm not sure if I should say this..."

Skyler encouraged him, "Please speak."

The butler shared his concern, "In the future, you'll need to keep an eye on Mr. Zavier; he can't keep on being so willful. Mr. Hudson's getting on in years, and while many are eyeing his position, who succeeds him will depend on the younger generation's conduct. You must be mindful of this."
