Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband
Chapter 1540

Chapter 1540 

Hannah asked, “What does our divorce have to do with Skyler?” 

Steven reached out, gently cradling her face in his hands, “You just asked me how I’d feel if you were the one who died. I’ve thought about it before, but it’s too painful to contemplate. So, when I saw Skyler walk away from Zavier with such finality, I got scared. I was afraid you’d leave me in the same way. So, I chose to file for divorce and let you go.” 

Before Hannah could fully digest his words, a gust of chilly wind blew, sending a shiver down her spine and causing her to sneeze. Steven quickly removed his coat and draped it around her. “Come inside.” He urged, closing the car door. Hannah complied, moving further into the car. 

Once the door was shut, the cold air/was kept at bay. The car’s heating system quickly took effect. 

“Steven!” Hannah called, handing back his coat. 

“Yes, Hannah?” Steven responded, a hint of fear in his voice. 

“I haven’t figured out what’s next for me, so I can’t give you the answer you want right now.” She said.e2 

“That’s okay. Take your time. I can wait.” Steven replied, relieved that she wasn’t shutting him out completely. 

“Just don’t show up in front of my family or disturb our lives until I’ve figured things out.” Hannah requested. 

“I promise.” Steven agreed 

With that, Hannah rose to leave. But before she could, Steven pulled her back into the seat and leaned in for a passionate kiss. It was clear he’d been yearning for this moment. Hannah struggled to pull away but to no avail. In a desperate move, she bit his lip, drawing blood. Steven finally let go, a wicked smile showing on his lips despite the pain, “Hannah, I’ve been holding back for so long. I want you.” 

Hannah shot him a glare, quickly exited his car, and returned to her own. 

Back in her car, Jeo and Pandora was still sleeping, and her brother Farley was still engrossed in a game on his phone. 

“What happened to your lip?” Farley asked, glancing up from his game. 

Hannah wanted to say she got bitten by a dog, but couldn’t, “Probably ate too much oranges, caused a heat rash.” 

Farley seemed to buy her explanation and returned to his game. 

Not long after, Rick returned, “Mr. Dixon, the stalker has been taken care of. He won’t be able to harass Mrs. Dixon anymore.” 

Steven was engrossed in his thoughts of Hannah, barely registering Rick’s words. Rick noticed the injury on his boss’s lip and understood what had happened. He silently prayed for his boss to win back his wife soon. He was tired of dealing with these small-town troubles.
