Chapter 822 Impulsive Vow To An Enigmatic Husband

• Desiree couldn’t help but feel the sting of envy. If only her family had been among the top three in the Capital, things would have been different. The Meador family was already esteemed, but they paled in comparison to the Riveras’ grandeur. Had her family’s status been just a bit higher, she would have been the one betrothed to Zavier. Instead, that privilege had fallen to some girl from Southern Port-a nobody in Desiree’s eyes. Deep down, Desiree knew the truth, but she couldn’t let it go.
• She stubbornly blamed everything on Skyler.. Meanwhile. Zavier had gathered his entourage and headed to his spacious loft near campus. It’s a sprawling 2,000-square-foot sanctuary he had purchased during his freshman year. It served as his primary residence during the academic year. Zavier had converted the space to suit his lifestyle, keeping only one bedroom intact. He had opened the rest into a massive gaming den, where he and his classmates spent countless hours under the guise of “testing new games,” which was free labor in disguise. Years ago, Zavier and a handful of like-minded friends had developed a few indie games, making a tidy sum. But to Hudson, his grand-father, this was mere child’s play, a distraction from more serious pursuits.

Zavier admitted, “Grandpa always says I’m not as good as you. I wish I could be as outstanding…” “Being good at making games is outstanding,” Brodie said, ruffling Zavier’s hair. “Think of how many people love gaming. It’s definitely lucrative. Doing what you love and making a fortune? That’s my dream.” Naively, Zavier missed the regret in his brother’s voice and asked, “You like business, right, Brodie?” Brodie smiled. “Yeah. And remember, Zavier, I’ve got your back.
