Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband

Chapter 1733

Skyler had no intention of dating, let alone entertaining the thought that Zavier might like her. This time, she chose not to respond.

After dinner, as usual, Zavier drove Skyler back to her dorm.”

Before parting ways, Zavier said, “Winter break’s almost here, and the dorms might be closed. Are you sure you don’t want to stay at my place for a couple of months?”

Skyler chuckled, “Thanks for the offer. But I’ve already spoken with the dorm supervisor. I applied early, so I can keep my room over the holidays.”

Zavier paused, then added, “Well, if you need anything, just let me know. I’ll send my cell number to your WhatsApp in a bit. Make sure to save it in your contacts.”

Skyler nodded, “I will.”d2

Without another word, Zavier drove off.

Back in her dorm, Skyler found her roommates Emma and Amanda packing their bags, with gifts for their parents from the Capital’s famous shops scattered around them.

Emma asked Skyler, “You’re really not going home for the winter break?”

Skyler replied, “No, I’m not. I’ve still got some work to sort out.”

Amanda chimed in, “Emma, you’re such an airhead. Skyler’s fiancé is in the Capital. Why would she go home? Obviously, she’s going to spend the holidays with him, have some fun, and maybe kindle some romance.”

Skyler didn’t feel like correcting them and let their teasing slide.

The Blue family had made it clear that Skyler wasn’t permitted to return to Southern Port unless she was accompanied by Zavier. She had wanted to discuss a trip to Southern Port with Zavier, especially to see her sister. But after all the help he had given her and considering his odd behavior that evening, she was hesitant to impose on him again. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Emma then asked, “So, where do you and Zavier plan on going for fun? Are you guys heading abroad? Let me know in advance, so you can pick up some stuff for me.”

Amanda added, “Me too, I need to stock up on skincare products. They’re so much cheaper duty-free.”

Skyler answered, “I’ll probably stay put, got too much on my plate with music projects.”

Amanda retorted, “Why work so hard when you’ve got a loaded fiancé?”

Skyler replied firmly, “His money is his own.”

To outsiders, Zavier lived a life of luxury, with everything handed to him on a silver platter. But in reality, he faced immense pressure, not only running his own gaming company but also navigating a minefield of corporate politics to secure his future at the helm of Rivera Inc. If he lost in the power struggle for Rivera Inc., his life could become worse than that of an average person.

As for Skyler? She had grown up without familial love and knew that only financial independence could give her the power to say “no.” Skyler believed that no matter whom a girl married, she should have the ability to earn her own money.

She thought about the many housewives who had the capability to earn before marriage but chose to focus on family life afterward, becoming so out of touch with society that their lives grew harder by the day.

Living off others’ generosity was something Skyler refused to experience again.

Winter break arrived, and most students joyfully returned home for the holidays, leaving only a few behind on campus.

With her roommates gone, Skyler settled into a simple routine: working at Carter’s music studio by day and reading books in her dorm at night. It was a simple life, but she was content.

As Christmas approached, Skyler decided to give Iris a call. Previously, Iris’ phone had been confiscated by their parents, cutting off their communication.
