Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END) novel Chapter 1652

Chapter 1652 

A chorus of voices chimed in unison, “Sounds good. Let’s grab a drink… 

The academic year commenced following the opening ceremony. Classes were now in full swing. 

Skyler’s natural aptitude wasn’t anything to write home about, so to keep up, she had to work harder than her peers. Her daily routine was as sim got. She attended lectures, studied on her own, and then tutored to make some extra cash. 

It was a simple and ordinary life, yet it had its comforts. 

But today, just after wrapping up a lecture, her phone buzzed with a call from the Rivera family’s stoic butler. His voice, ever so grave and detache from the other end. “Miss Skyler, Mr. Hudson requests your presence, along with Zavier, for dinner at the manor this evening. A driver will pick you from campus at five o’clock sharp.” 

Skyler didn’t want to go but felt she had no choice but to comply. “Yes, I’ll be there.”e2 

The butler went on to provide further instructions, which Skyler listened to intently. She jotted them down in her phone’s notes app, worried that e minor oversight on her part might lead to unnecessary complications. 

After the call, she stared at her phone with a mind as jumbled as a pot of stew. 

Skyler and Zavier were in different departments, and given the size of the university, she had only bumped into him at the opening ceremony a mon 

ago. 

She had heard plenty about Zavier since then but never had the chance to meet him again. So, her days had been relatively carefree until now. The thought of meeting that arrogantly insufferable man later in the day made it impossible for Skyler to focus on her afternoon classes. 

The last thing she wanted was for her classmates to catch wind of her connection to Zavier. At five, she deliberately avoided familiar faces and heac to the southern gate of the campus. She arrived just in time to find the driver waiting, punctuality personified. 

Skyler quickly got into the car. “Hi, we can go now.” 

The driver said, “Mr. Hudson asked me to pick you up along with Mr. Zavier. He should be arriving shortly; please wait for a moment.” 

Skyler was stunned. She had felt the spacious limousine shrink instantly upon hearing Zavier would be riding with her. Glancing at Skyler through the rearview mirror, the driver offered some reassurance, “Miss Skyler, no need to be nervous; Mr. Zavier won’t bite.” 

Skyler gave an awkward smile in response. Zavier might not bite, but he was certainly intimidating enough to be just as bad, if not worse. 

What was supposed to be a few minutes turned into a full half-hour wait before Zavier finally showed up fashionably late. 

Skyler was lost for words. This guy really had no sense of time management. Absolutely infuriating.
