Chapter 1740
Considering Zavier’s words, Skyler nodded in agreement. “Thanks for tagging along with me on this. If I had come
back alone, meeting Iris would have been a toss-up.”
Zavier quipped, “Well, since you’re the fiancée my family has set me up with, who else would I accompany but
you?”
His words carried an undertone. He was reminding Skyler that their relationship was approved by both their
families. It wasn’t just about the two of them being willing. No one would tear them apart.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTo Skyler, though, it sounded like she was just another item arranged by her family-his past resistance and current
assistance were both out of obligation.
As they stepped out of the hotel, Skyler murmured, “Let’s hail a fancy ride. We can’t tarnish your reputation.”
Zavier was amused by her earnest silliness. “Afraid of tarnishing my reputation by taking a cab?”
With her head held high, Skyler retorted, “I’ll call for the most expensive one. We can’t have your reputation
tarnished.”e2
Zavier, holding Skyler’s hand, walked directly towards the Lamborghini parked at the hotel entrance. “Get in.”
Skyler realized, “You called for a car ahead of time.”
Without offering an explanation, Zavier said warmly, “Get in, silly.”
Skyler didn’t waste a second and quickly jumped into the car, not even glancing back at Gilbert, who was seething
with anger.
Thinking of the usually haughty Gilbert now brought low, Skyler suddenly felt a refreshing sense of delight, as if the
weather itself had brightened.
Seeing her joy, Zavier felt genuinely happy for her. “How’re you feeling now?”
Skyler beamed, “Absolutely fantastic. Never been better.”
Zavier watched her smiling face and couldn’t help but smile as well. He resolved to make sure she felt this good
every day, and to never let anyone bully her again.
About twenty minutes later, they arrived at the Blue household.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGilbert had beaten them there and was already at the doorstep with the family, all wearing smiles that had never
been afforded to Skyler before. They greeted her warmly as if she had always been their darling “Sky.”

But Skyler’s eyes searched only for Iris.
Iris had longed to rush over and hug her sister, whom she missed dearly. However, with family members around,
she lacked the courage. Standing at the back of the crowd, she timidly watched Skyler.
Surrounded by relatives, Skyler couldn’t break free. It was Zavier who came to her rescue. “Every day in the
Capital, you kept talking about your sister. Why not go and see her first?”
