Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END) novel Chapter 1538

Chapter 1538 

He had a knack for managing his own study schedule, with absolutely no need for any intervention from his family or tutors. 

“Go on with your game, Farley.” Hannah told him, “I’m going to take a stroll.” 

“Alright, just be careful. Don’t wander too far. Once the road opens up, we’d have to leave.” Farley said. 

Hannah responded with a guilty nod, quietly pocketing a pack of beef jerky and slipping on her sunglasses. She then stepped out of the vehicle, posing a brief walk around the area before finally approaching Steven’s car. “You helped me out earlier, so consider this beef jerky a token of my gratitude.” She told him, offering the pack. 

Steven declined, “Can I choose my own thank you gift?” 

“What do you want?” Hannah asked. 

He patted the seat next to him, “Sit with me. Let’s chat.”e2 

Hannah hesitated for a moment before sitting down, “What do you want to talk about?” 

Before Steven could respond, a call came in on his phone. The screen displayed the name, “Zavier Rivera”. 

“I’ll need to take this.” He told her, reaching for his phone. 

“I’ll give you some privacy.” Hannah said, rising from her seat. 

“No need.” Steven pulled her back, his arm naturally finding its way around her waist. His other hand swiped the screen to answer the call, “Zavier, what’s up?” 

Zavier’s voice came through the phone, his usual cockiness tinged with a hint of resignation, “Aren’t you in Harbor City?” 

“No, I’m not.” Steven replied. 

“You’re in Haines to see your ex-wife?” Zavier guessed. 

The phone wasn’t on speaker, so Hannah couldn’t hear the conversation. Still, Steven instinctively glanced at her before responding, “Yes.” 

Zavier continued, “Marc now has not only a wife, but also a son. Lucas and his wife are as in love as ever. You’re divorced, yet you have the audacity to go. see your ex. Regardless of whether she wants to see you or not, at least you can see her and know she’s alive. But me…” 

Zavier let out a chuckle, “I don’t even know whether my wife is dead or alive.” 

“Last time you said she was alive.” Steven pointed out. 

“That’s the old saying, ‘Seeing is believing’. If she’s alive, why can’t I find any trace of her?” Zavier countered. 

“Steven.” Zavier went on, “Every year before Christmas, the four of us used to meet up. We didn’t last year due to certain circumstances. Let’s do it this year.” 

“I have no objections. You can pick a place.” Steven agreed. 

“Marc has a family to take care of, so it’s not convenient for him to travel. Let’s meet in Riverton. I’ll call Lucas later.” Zavier suggested.
