Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 1740

Considering Zavier's words, Skyler nodded in agreement. "Thanks for tagging along with me on this. If I had come back alone, meeting Iris would have been a toss-up."

Zavier quipped, "Well, since you're the fiancée my family has set me up with, who else would I accompany but you?"

His words carried an undertone. He was reminding Skyler that their relationship was approved by both their families. It wasn't just about the two of them being willing. No one would tear them apart.

To Skyler, though, it sounded like she was just another item arranged by her family—his past resistance and current assistance were both out of obligation.

As they stepped out of the hotel, Skyler murmured, "Let's hail a fancy ride. We can't tarnish your reputation."

Zavier was amused by her earnest silliness. "Afraid of tarnishing my reputation by taking a cab?"d2

With her head held high, Skyler retorted, "I'll call for the most expensive one. We can't have your reputation tarnished."

Zavier, holding Skyler's hand, walked directly towards the Lamborghini parked at the hotel entrance. "Get in."

Skyler realized, "You called for a car ahead of time."

Without offering an explanation, Zavier said warmly, "Get in, silly."

Skyler didn't waste a second and quickly jumped into the car, not even glancing back at Gilbert, who was seething with anger.

Thinking of the usually haughty Gilbert now brought low, Skyler suddenly felt a refreshing sense of delight, as if the weather itself had brightened.

Seeing her joy, Zavier felt genuinely happy for her. "How're you feeling now?"

Skyler beamed, "Absolutely fantastic. Never been better."
