Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband

Chapter 1719

“Grandpa, I know which path to take into the future, so you don’t need to worry about me. What’s most important right now is for you to take care of yourself and not let those people get under your skin.”

Zavier’s voice suddenly echoed from the doorway, interrupting their conversation.

Skyler whirled around, startled. Zavier, who had supposedly left earlier, had reappeared at the living room entrance without her noticing. “You-you didn’t leave?”

Hudson frowned disapprovingly, “What do you think you know? If you really knew anything, I wouldn’t be an old man losing sleep over your future.”

Zavier sat down next to Hudson, “Grandpa, I know everything you’ve been doing is to help me. You kept Skyler here to show those sharks that even though I’m not fit to take over Rivera Inc., I’m still your grandson, and you wouldn’t just leave me high and dry.
