Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband
Chapter 399

Chapter 399

Cornelia could tell Zavier was here because of Skyler, she just didn’t get why he was playing dumb.

“Ms. Stewart, if you please.” Zavier said politely, but there was no real choice in his tone.

With a resigned sigh, Cornelia followed Zavier into the restaurant. Zavier took her coat and hung it up, “Ms. Stewart, I took the liberty to order for you based on your preferences, hope you like it.”

“Thank you, Mr. Rivera.” said Cornelia.

Zavier took off his own coat, hung it up and lit a cigarette, “We’re just friends here, no need for formalities, Ms. Stewart. What would you like to drink?”

“I don’t want to drink.” Cornelia replied.

“Are you afraid I’ll get you drunk and do something inappropriate?” Zavier asked.

“People should not harbor ill intentions, but also should not be without self-protection.” Cornelia said.

Her answer surprised Zavier and he chuckled, “If I wanted to do something inappropriate, it wouldn’t matter if you were drunk or not.”

“Mr. Rivera, I know you’re not interested in me. So, stop saying things that make me uncomfortable.” Cornelia said.

“Who said I’m not interested in you? I asked you here to tell you that I like you, I want to pursue you, and I hope you’ll accept me.” Zavier

said.

Comelia knew he was trying to make her uncomfortable, “Mr. Rivera, I’m married. I have a husband whom love very much. Don’t forget, you’re a married man too.”

Zavier laughed, “So what if I’m married? How many men stay faithful after marriage? Other men have mistresses, I’m rich and powerful, why can’t I have more women?”

Cornelia was speechless. What the hell was this guy up to?

“Let’s eat. The food’s getting cold.” Zavier said.

Cornelia was hungry and picked up her fork and knife. But she then stopped, worried that Zavier might have tampered with the food.

Zavier saw her hesitation, “Eat up, I wouldn’t do that. I’ll make you like me willingly.”

Even though Cornelia didn’t think highly of Zavier, she decided to trust him because she trusted Marcus’s judgement. She trusted Marcus completely, as well as his friends.

Zavier was here to cause trouble, not to take Cornelia out for dinner. But not only was she eating, she was enjoying it, which pis sed him off, “You really dare to eat? You really believe that I didn’t drug the food?”

After swallowing the food in her mouth, Cornelia replied calmly, “I trust President Hartley.”

Zavier raised his eyebrows, “What does this have to do with him?”

Cornelia finished her meal and took a sip of her soup, saying seriously, “You’re his friend. If you were the kind of person who would use such tactics to harm an unsuspecting girl, then he wouldn’t be your friend.”
