Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband

Chapter 1644

Boom-

The name “Zavier’ struck like a bolt of lightning, exploding into Skyler’s mind and paralyzing her entire body. She

stood frozen on the stage, not daring to move an inch.

Below, applause roared like thunder, but Skyler heard nothing. She was just standing there in a daze. It had been

ten days since she had enrolled at the school. During that time, she had no interactions with Zavier, and the Rivera

family hadn’t sought her out.

Just as she was beginning to forget the reason her family had sent her to the Capital, Zavier reappeared before her

eyes, and panic was an understatement.

Emma and Amanda were beside themselves with excitement. “Oh my gosh, I can’t believe Skyler is sharing the

stage with Zavier.”

In the Capital, Zavier’s name was known to all, especially within the walls of their school, where his presence was

akin to celebrity status.

Everyone craned their necks, scouring the crowd for a glimpse of Zavier, to no avail. Reluctantly, the host called out

again, “Please welcome our outstanding student representative, Zavier.”e2

It was then that Zavier emerged from backstage, approaching the host and Skyler with deliberate, unhurried

strides.

The host, noticing Skyler’s distraction, nudged her gently. “Skyler…”

Jolted back to reality, Skyler scrambled to compose herself.

As Zavier closed in, the host quickly passed him the mic. “Zavier, why don’t you introduce yourself to everyone?”

Zavier didn’t take the mic, instead casting a cold glance at Skyler.

Skyler thought, “What’s he looking at me for?”

It wasn’t like she asked him to come. It wasn’t like she wanted to be paired with him!

With that thought, a realization struck her-could this all be a setup by the Rivera family? It didn’t make sense for her

to represent the new students; she wasn’t that outstanding. And being paired with Zavier was news that had only

reached her two days ago. It was highly possible, then, that this was all orchestrated by the Rivera family.

If her speculation was correct, Zavier’s apparent ‘resentment’ towards her was no surprise.

To avoid an awkward silence, the host quickly offered the mic to Skyler. “Skyler, why don’t you start?”

Taking the mic, she pushed down the nervous flutter in her chest.

When she turned back to face her classmates, her composure was impeccable. “Good day to our faculty, staff, and

fellow students. My name is, Skyler, a freshman from the class of 2014, hailing from Southern Port…”

Skyler delivered a concise introduction and then handed the mic back to the host.

The host turned to Zavier, extending the mic but whispering, “Zavier, would you like to introduce yourself?”

Zavier gestured for the mic, and upon receiving it, he spoke indifferently. “Do I really need an introduction?”

No introduction was necessary; there wasn’t a soul in the school who didn’t recognize him, and some knew more

about him than he knew about himself.

Skyler thought, “How can someone be so full of themselves?”

Without looking at Skyler, Zavier continued, “I have no interest in being an ‘outstanding student representative, and

I don’t know who insisted on me speaking. But since I’m here, I might as well share my thoughts.

“Good grades aren’t always about hard work; often, it’s a matter of innate talent. Some are born with everything,

while others struggle in the mire their whole lives. My life, for all of you here, holds no relevance.”

His words were a harsh truth. Some were born in Rome, while others spent their lives dreaming of it.
