Chapter 815 Impulsive Vow To An Enigmatic Husband

• Zavier uncrossed his legs with a casual flair and stood up, ready to leave. Garrett called out, “Zavier, you’re taking off just like that?” Without looking back, Zavier replied, “Yeah, I’m out.” Garrett didn’t have the mind to dwell on Zavier’s departure. His eyes were fixed on the striking young lady before him. “Braiden, let’s get this contract signed now. If it’s cool with you, we can have Skyler start tutoring my little brother tomorrow at my place.” Braiden was more than happy to oblige, but he deferred to Skyler’s preference. “Skyler, what do you think?” Skyler was both polite and humble in her response. “Mr. Garrett, since I’m still in school, I can only offer lessons during my free time.”
• “Mr. Garrett?” He laughed. “No need for such formality. Call me Garrett. Your accent… are you from down South? Did you get into Capital College?”e2 Not everyone had the chops to get into Capital College. With talent like that in front of him, Braiden was keen to brag a bit. “Yep, our Skyler here is from Southern Port. She made it to The Capital College all on her own merit. She’s off to enroll the day after tomorrow.” He’d only just met Skyler, had skimmed her resume, and now he was dropping “our Skyler” like they were old chums. Braiden was eager to make it known he’d discovered a gem.
• “Wow, what a coincidence! Skyler, you’re going to be my junior then, Garrett said, delighted by the connection but shooting Braiden a chilly, pressuring glance that seemed to say, “Why are you still here? She’s my junior, and I want a word with her alone. Beat it if you know what’s good for you.” Braiden, an old hand at reading the room, easily picked up on Garrett’s silent warning. He glanced at his watch, feigning a conflict. “Garrett, I’ve got other stuff to take care of, so I’ll head out. If there’s anything else you need to know, Skyler can fill you in.” Garrett feigned reluctance. “Sure, that works.” As Braiden stood to leave, he added, “Garrett, it’s tough to get a cab around here.
