Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband
Chapter 1664

Chapter 1664 

She pulled out her phone, intending to send a message to Iris, only to find a barrage of unread messages on WhatsApp-all from Iris. 

[Skyler, I miss you!] 

[The first day without you has been so long.] 

[The flowers we planted together in the summer have grown tall. They’ll be blooming by the time you come back.] 

[Can I start school early in the Capital?] 

[Mom and Dad had a fight today. It got physical, and both got hurt.] 

[Why aren’t you replying to me? Don’t you want me anymore?]e2 

Reading this, Skyler quickly typed a reply. 

[Iris, what are you thinking? How could I ever not want you? I just went to take a shower, and I’m replying as soon as I saw your messages.] 

Iris: [You scared me. I thought you didn’t want Iris anymore.] 

Skyler: [Iris, you’re the dearest to me, and there is no way that I could abandon you.] 

Iris: [Skyler…] 

Skyler continued, [Iris, I want to bring you to the Capital soon too, but I’m not quite there yet. Give me some time to figure things out, then I’ll see if I can bring you over to the Capital.] 

Skyler knew all too well that bringing Iris to the Capital wasn’t going to be easy. First, she needed the financial means, and second, she needed the consent of the Blue family elders. 

The Blues had raised the sisters, squeezing every ounce of value from them. How could they easily let Iris go? 

It was a daunting path, but to lift her sister out of misery, she had to try. 

Iris: [Okay.] 

Skyler: [Did they take their anger out on you after their fight?] 

Iris didn’t reply, but her silence spoke volumes to Skyler. 

Skyler typed again, [Did they hit you?] 

Iris, ever sensible, didn’t want her sister to worry too much. [If they tried to hit me, I ran. They didn’t catch me. I’m a big girl now. Don’t worry about me.] 

Ten years old. Just ten. At that age, many kids were still coddled in their mother’s arms, not considered “big” by any stretch. But they’d been forced to grow up fast, lacking the normal love that would allow them to be children: 

Skyler: [Silly kid, don’t lie to your sister.] 

She knew the drill. When their parents fought, she had been their punching bag. She’d stand there, take the verbal lashing, and take the hits. If she dared to flee, it would invite a relentless pursuit. 

Now that she wasn’t home, all their parents’ anger would descend on little Iris. The thought of her sister enduring what she had been through made Skyler’s nose sting, and tears began to fall. 

Thankfully, they were communicating through WhatsApp text. Otherwise, her sister would be worried about her too. 

Iris: [I’m not lying.] 

Skyler wiped away her tears forcefully, [Iris, I promise you, just give me a few more months. I will find a way to get you out.] 

She must! Skyler told herself that no matter what, she had to find a way to free her sister from the control of the Blue family. 

Iris: [Okay. Take care of yourself too. I heard it’s getting really cold in the Capital. Buy yourself some warm clothes, and don’t get cold.] 

Skyler: [I will.]
