Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 1724

Zavier let out a sigh before he began to share, "I'm the second born in our generation of the Rivera family. Since I had an older brother who showed a natural talent for business from a young age, our family put all their efforts into grooming him.”

“They never expected me to take on the mantle of Rivera Inc., so I had the freedom of a child without such weight on my shoulders. I just had to go to school like any other kid and then I could play any games I wanted after completing my homework.

“My brother, only three years older than me, would watch me play, and I could tell he wanted to join in, but he couldn't afford the time. His schedule was jam-packed with learning, except for the few hours he got to sleep.

“Back then, I made up my mind that I'd create games one day—games that were fun and easy to play, so that my brother could enjoy them in his rare free time. Now, I've tailored a game just for him, but he'll never get to play it."

It was only now that Skyler realized why Zavier had put so much care into perfecting the game and its theme music—it was all for his brother. The game was made, but the person it was made for was gone.

Skyler opened her mouth, to offer some words of comfort to Zavier, but she didn't know what to say, so she remained silent.d2

Zavier continued, "My brother was a great guy, and a wonderful son. He was the beacon of hope for our family. But he’s dead now, I must make the one responsible pay for what they've done."

Fearful that Zavier might do something rash, Skyler said, "Zavier, maybe your brother just wanted to live a life true to himself, not to be chained by the expectations of the Rivera family."

Zavier replied, "You've seen the situation with the Rivera family. It won't stay peaceful just because I give up. I have to finish what my brother started. I can't let his efforts turn to dust."

It seemed everyone had their own battles to fight.

Zavier asked, "So, what are you planning next?"

Instead of answering directly, Skyler confessed, "I have dreams too, but I can't make them happen."

Zavier encouraged her to share.
