Chapter 203 Impulsive Vow To An Enigmatic Husband

• The moment she turned her back, her tears burst out, all the pent-up emotions exploded at that instant. “Skyler.” A deep male voice came from behind her as she was crying her heart out. Not long after the driver took Cornelia away from the farm, their path was blocked by a few cars. A man dressed in a black suit knocked on Cornelia’s window, “Ms. Stewart, my boss would like you to get into that car.” The car the bodyguard pointed to was a Rolls-Royce. Not many people in the world could afford such a car. So, even without seeing the person in the car, Cornelia had a fair idea of who it might be. Knowing she couldn’t escape, she walked over and opened the car door, “Mr. Rivera, what’s your game?” Zavier’s handsome face appeared before her eyes, he smiled and said, “Relax, Ms. Stewart. You’re Marc’s assistant, I wouldn’t dare mess with you. I’ve admired you for a long time and wanted to invite you to dinner.” His words turned Cornelia pale with fear, “Did you bug Skyler’s house?” Otherwise, there was no way he could know about her conversation with Skyler last night. This man was terrifying! Zavier didn’t respond to Cornelia’s question, “Ms. Stewart, please get in the car.”
• Cornelia said, “We’re not close, there’s no need for us to have dinner together.” Zavier said, “We’re not close? We’ve met a few times outside of work at Marc’s private parties. I know you like the back of my hand, yet you say we’re not close. That hurts my feelings.’” Cornelia knew Zavier wouldn’t let her go, but he wouldn’t harm her either. She got into the car, sitting next to Zavier, “Mr. Rivera, spit it out, whatever you want to discuss.” Zavier ordered the driver to go. The driver stepped on the gas and the car shot out like an arrow. The speed was so fast that Cornelia had no time to react. She forced herself to stay calm, “Mr. Rivera, where are you taking me?” Zavier said, “Somewhere to eat.” Cornelia didn’t say anything, just waited to see what he would do. The car quickly left the suburbs and headed towards the city. Soon, there were more and more cars on the road, and more and more buildings on the sides. As long as Zavier wasn’t planning to kill her in the wilderness, she had nothing to worry about. The car drove for more than half an hour and finally stopped in front of a luxurious French restaurant. The driver got out of the car and opened the door for Zavier. Zavier got out of the car first, then walked around to the other side and opened the door for Cornelia, “Ms. Stewart, please get out.” Cornelia got out of the car and immediately looked around. Zavier said, “I heard you like French food. This is the most famous French restaurant in France, hope you like it.” Cornelia said, “Mr. Rivera, we’re both smart people, say what you have to say, no need to beat around the bush.” Zavier replied, “I just want to invite you to dinner and have a nice chat, what do I need to beat around the bush for?” Cornelia didn’t respond. She wasn’t a fool, she knew what kind of person Zavier was.
• How could he possibly invite her, an assistant, to dinner for no reason? Zavier said, “Don’t be mad. Let’s go inside, it’s too cold out here.” Cornelia said, “I won’t betray Skyler.” asked, Zavier asked, “Who’s Skyler?” Cornelia didn’t respond. She really wanted to cuss him out! Zavier said, “Let’s just enjoy our dinner, don’t mention unimportant people. It would ruin the mood.” Cornelia didn’t respond. 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?
