Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband
Chapter 1730

Chapter 1730 

Zavier nudged Steven with a sly grin, “So, did you finally win over your crush?” 

Steven smirked, “That’s for me to know.” 

“Seems like a no to me,” Zavier chuckled. 

“With the charm I’ve got, there’s no lady I can’t woo,” Steven boasted. “But I’m playing the long game here, haven’t made my move yet! 

“Because of the Salazar family?” Zavier prodded. 

“Yeah, the Salazars want to marry their daughter off to me, and my folks are pretty keen on the match. But I’ve made it clear I won’t be tied down to someone I don’t fancy. No one’s dictating my love life.” 

Skyler stood by, silent, sympathizing with Steven’s predicament. It seemed that the wealthier the family, the more they insisted on strategically arranged marriages, leaving little room for personal choice.e2 

Steven caught the look in Skyler’s eyes. “Miss Skyler, my situation with the Salazar girl is nothing like whatever’s going on between you and Zavier, so don’t lump us together.” 

Zavier threw Skyler a glance and suddenly blurted out, “There’s no other girl for me.” 

Skyler just nodded, “I see.” 

Steven burst into laughter. “Zavier, my man, taking over Rivera Inc. is a tough gig, and winning over your lady seems just as tricky. You’ve got your work cut out for you.” 

Zavier shot him a glare. “Mind your own business. We’re here to talk about music, remember?” 

The Dixon Group was a titan in the entertainment industry, and young Steven had already taken the reins of a major entertainment company. That was why Zavier wanted to pick his brain-hoping to maximize Skyler’s benefits in the industry. 

“Do you have any idea how busy I am?” Steven complained. “Do you know how many people wish they could see me and can’t?” 

“So?” Zavier pressed. 

“I rushed over from Harbor City just because you called. Guess that shows how much I value you, doesn’t it?” Steven said. 

“Cut the crap, Zavier grunted. 

“Sky, don’t worry, there’s nothing but a platonic friendship between Zavier and me. No skeletons in our closet,” Steven declared, though Skyler had never even considered the possibility. 

But now that he mentioned it, Skyler couldn’t help but wonder. Her eyes widened as she looked back and forth between the two. “You guys…” 

She felt like she’d stumbled upon a scandalous secret. “Look, people are really open-minded these days. Whether it’s a homosexual or heterosexual relationship, there’s no judgment here. I won’t breathe a word of this to anyone. If you need me, I can even help you keep your secret.” 

Zavier, who wanted nothing more than to throttle her at this point, retorted, “What kind of nonsense are you thinking? We’re just friends, nothing like what you’re imagining.” 

But Steven just loved stirring the pot. “Zavier, Sky’s offering to be our cover, so quit denying it.” 

“Steven!” Zavier growled. 

“Zavier, don’t you love me anymore?” Steven teased. 

‘One more peep from you, and I’ll make sure your own crush gets the wrong idea too, Zavier threatened. 

Steven latched onto Zavier’s choice of words. “Too? Does that mean Skyler’s your crush?” 

Skyler panicked, waving her hands frantically. “Steven, don’t get it twisted. There’s absolutely nothing between Zavier and me. Our engagement is just a family arrangement; we’re together out of obligation, not choice. You’re the one he truly loves.” 

Zavier’s face turned an impressive shade of green. 

Steven howled with laughter. “Oh, Sky, you’re the best. If Zavier and I end up together, I’ll be sure to thank you for what you did for us.”
