Chapter 1709

Even with a choice, Skyler knew she wasn’t really calling the shots, “I can eat anything. I’m not a picky eater.”

Zavier’s response was a silent stare if she could bring a bit of her work demeanor into her personal life, she

wouldn’t be bullied so much, a punching doll for everyone.

Rosie grabbed Skyler’s hand, “Let’s get out of here.”

“Okay,” Skyler agreed.

Trailing behind them, Lucas turned to Zavier, “What’s your deal with this surprise fiancée of yours, Zavier?”

Watching Skyler’s delicate figure ahead, Zavier mused, “She just seems so fragile, like a gentle breeze could knock

her over. I feel like taking care of her.”

Lucas wasn’t buying it, “Come on, Zavier. We’ve known each other for years, and since when have you had the

heart of a saint?”e2 “Well, now you know,” Zavier quipped.

“No real feelings for the girl?” Lucas pressed.

“None,” Zavier affirmed.

Lucas patted him on the shoulder, “If you’re not planning to marry her, don’t get her hopes up. Leading her on and

then bailing out would be the real harm.”

Zavier replied, “With the way she doesn’t seem to care about me, do you really think I can hurt her?”

“So it’s because she’s not into you that you don’t want to like her?” Lucas probed.

Zavier chuckled, “You’re reading too much into it.”

“It’s fine for me to overthink, but don’t let the girl do the same,” Lucas warned.

“I know my limits,” Zavier said.

“The Blue family is really something, aren’t they? Using their own flesh and blood as a bargaining chip,” Lucas

scorned.

Lighting up a cigarette, Zavier took a drag, “Aren’t we all pawns in our family’s games?”

“Not Rosie and me,” Lucas countered.

“You and Rosie have that childhood betrothal, and you’re saying you’re not?” Zavier challenged.

“As kids, our parents joked about it, sure. But my feelings for Rosie, my desire to marry her, they’re real. I want to

protect her for life,” Lucas declared.

“And you’re sure Rosie feels the same about you?” Zavier asked.

“Of course, she does. Who else could she like? She’s spent her life around me more than any other guy,” Lucas

asserted confidently.

Zavier laughed, “Have you ever actually asked her? Maybe all this time you’ve been wishful thinking, and she sees

you more as a brother.”

Lucas’ face darkened, “That’s impossible.”

“So you’ve never asked her if she likes you in that way?” Zavier prodded.

Lucas fell silent, then, mimicking Zavier, lit up a cigarette and took a couple of puffs, “Before we sign any papers,

I’ll make sure to ask her.”

But it was just asking, not letting her choose. He would never allow his girl to marry another man.

Zavier snuffed out his cigarette, “Let’s go!”

“Yeah,” Lucas agreed, though the thought of Rosie’s feelings being more fraternal than romantic ruined his

appetite.

Throughout dinner, he busily passed dishes to Rosie, who, with her carefree nature, didn’t notice his unusual

behavior.

After dinner, the group split up. Zavier drove Skyler back to campus. The ride was typically quiet until Zavier parked

outside the campus and broke the silence, “I’m sorry!”

Skyler, confused by his sudden apology, blinked her doe eyes at him.

Zavier clarified, “I didn’t come through with the help I promised. Your parents don’t want your sister coming to the
