Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 1644

Boom—

The name "Zavier" struck like a bolt of lightning, exploding into Skyler's mind and paralyzing her entire body. She stood frozen on the stage, not daring to move an inch.

Below, applause roared like thunder, but Skyler heard nothing. She was just standing there in a daze. It had been ten days since she had enrolled at the school. During that time, she had no interactions with Zavier, and the Rivera family hadn't sought her out.

Just as she was beginning to forget the reason her family had sent her to the Capital, Zavier reappeared before her eyes, and panic was an understatement.

Emma and Amanda were beside themselves with excitement. "Oh my gosh, I can't believe Skyler is sharing the stage with Zavier."

In the Capital, Zavier's name was known to all, especially within the walls of their school, where his presence was akin to celebrity status.d2

Everyone craned their necks, scouring the crowd for a glimpse of Zavier, to no avail. Reluctantly, the host called out again, "Please welcome our outstanding student representative, Zavier."

It was then that Zavier emerged from backstage, approaching the host and Skyler with deliberate, unhurried strides.

The host, noticing Skyler's distraction, nudged her gently. "Skyler..."

Jolted back to reality, Skyler scrambled to compose herself.

As Zavier closed in, the host quickly passed him the mic. "Zavier, why don't you introduce yourself to everyone?"

Zavier didn't take the mic, instead casting a cold glance at Skyler.

Skyler thought, "What's he looking at me for?"
