Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 1347

Cornelia said, "If you hadn't just shown up out of the blue, I'd be more than happy to meet you. But it's late now, and I gotta be up early tomorrow. Whatever you want to say, let's just hash it out over the phone."

Zavier said, "Well, your butler already let me in. I'm already in your yard."

The Rivera family and the Duran family were both in the Capital, and they hung out pretty often. As long as Grandpa Augustine didn't object, they'd let him in the house.

Cornelia went silent. With no other choice, she had to descend the stairs once more to meet her guest.

She and Zavier almost arrived in the living room at the same time. Zavier brushed snow off his shoulder, handed his coat to the butler, and made himself at home, "I need to talk to Cornelia alone. You all can leave now."

The butler glanced at Cornelia, and seeing her nod, he took the others and left.

Cornelia turned to Zavier. His hair, which had turned gray overnight months ago, was even all gray now. "Mr. Rivera, what's up?" Cornelia asked.

Zavier didn't beat around the bush, "Skyler is still alive! I'm sure that Skyler is still alive!"

Hearing that Skyler was still alive, Cornelia was somewhat excited. She even wished she could believe as firmly as Zavier that Skyler was still alive. But her senses told her that Skyler had died in that big fire, turned into ashes, and couldn't possibly still be alive. "Zavier, dead people can't come back to life. You didn't treat her well when she was alive, and now that you've lost her completely, you're regretting it." Cornelia said.

Zavier stared intently at Cornelia, his eyes piercing as if trying to see through her, "Those ashes from that time, I had them all tested. They were all wood residue, no human tissue at all."

Hearing this, Cornelia's heart suddenly beat faster, "Is Skyler really still alive? Really?"

Dared she hope that much?

"So you really didn't know about Skyler faking her death." That was why Zavier had to see Cornelia in person to tell her this.
