Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband
Chapter 1720

Chapter 1720 

Could this mysterious figure be Nora? Skyler had no clue. 

Zavier said, “Grandpa, if it turns out everything was her doing, I won’t go easy on her. You better brace yourself.” 

“I’ve allowed them to showcase their talents without turning on each other. If it comes to light that she’s responsible for both incidents…” Hudson paused, as if steeling himself for what he had to say next, “then what must be done, will be done.””” 

Zavier nodded, “Grandpa, that’s all I needed to hear.” 

Hudson continued, “The butler might be back soon. Best you take Skyler and leave now.” 

“I wanted to stay and have dinner with you,” Zavier said. 

“Not today. When you find out the real culprit, take over Rivera Inc., and have the ability to make everyone acknowledge you, then come and have a meal with me.” Hudson replied.e2 

Zavier knew now was not the time to reveal that he and Hudson were putting on an act. He stood up, “Come on, Scaredy-cat, let’s go.” 

Skyler got up too, “Take care, Grandpa. We’ll head out now.” 

Impatiently, Hudson waved them off, “Go on. Get outta here. Having you youngsters around is like a non-stop racket in my ears.” As Zavier and Skyler walked away, Hudson felt a twinge of comfort but then remembered something crucial. “Zavier, leave by a different route. There were cameras in th house. You can’t be caught together.” 

“Don’t worry. No one knows the surveillance system better than me,” Zavier assured him. 

The thought of his beloved grandson having to sneak around his own home, unable to openly share a meal, pained Hudson deeply. “Zavier, I’m sorry.” 

“Grandpa, you taught me when I was very young not to punish myself for someone else’s mistakes. I remember it well. How could you forget?” Zavier said with a small smile. 

Hudson smiled back, satisfied, “Alright then, off you go.” 

Not wanting to linger, Zavier led Skyler to the front door. “I’ll leave through a side exit. Have the driver take you out of the villa, and I’ll wait for you outside the compound.” 

Skyler nodded, “Okay.” 

The driver, a loyal confidante of Hudson’s, took Skyler out of the estate. As they left, a car was parked ahead. “Miss Skyler, you should switch to Zavier’s car now.” 

“That’s Zavier’s ride?” Skyler asked, surprised. 

Zavier’s usual choice was a sports car, and the family’s garage was filled with luxury brands. The car in front of her was a nondescript sedan, likely not worth more than twenty thousand. 

The driver confirmed, “Yes.” 

Skyler hurriedly got out and into Zavier’s car. Once she was settled, Zavier floored the accelerator, and the sedan shot forward, but they weren’t heading towards school. 

“Where are you taking me?” Skyler asked. 

To meet your future mother-in-law,” Zavjer said with a straight face. 

That joke isn’t funny at all,” Skyler retorted. 

“My mom wants to meet you. She asked me to bring you home for dinner,” Zavier explained. 

“Your father’s passing hit her hard. She hasn’t been looking well. You should look after her more,” Skyler advised. 

A chuckle escaped Zavier’s lips, “Skyler, you’re in hot water yourself, and here you are worrying about others.” 

“Do you think I want to worry about others? We’re in the same boat. If your rock collapses and can’t get back up, guess who’s going to suffer too?” Skyler shot back.
