Chapter 1049

Zavier gripped the soft hand tightly, kneading it over and over, “Skyler, is that really you? You’re not mad at me anymore? You’re willing to forgive me?”

The woman tried to get closer to Zavier, “Mr. Rivera, I’m not Skyler. But I can be whoever you want me to be if you’d like.”

Her voice reached Zavier’s ears and he snapped half–awake. He forced his eyes open, looking coldly at the stranger in front of him, “You’re not Skylert Who sent you to pretend to be her?”

The woman said, “Mr. Rivera, I’m not pretending to be anyone Mr. Reese sent me so you wouldn’t be lonely.”

Zavier asked, “Granger?”

“Who else could it be?” The woman moved closer to Zavier, “Mr. Rivera, don’t waste time. Let me keep you company in bed.”

Zavier grabbed the woman’s hand and shoved her away forcefully, “Buzz off!”

The woman was taken aback by the rejection but quickly regained her composure. She looked at Zavier with a pitiful expression, “Mr. Rivera, what’s wrong? If I did something wrong, tell me, I’ll change. I’ll try to be like Skyler. You’re scaring me.”

Zavier suddenly reached out, clutching her throat tightly. You think you’re like Skyler?

His actions frightened the woman,and she grabbed his hand begging for mercy. “Me Rivera, I’m sorry, let me go. I won’t do it again.”

“Go tell Mr. Reese to stop messing with me If he pisses me off, he’ll pay” Zavier let go of the woman, clearly disgusted

When Zavier got angry, few weren’t afraid of him. The woman quickly left after being released.

Once again, Zavier was left alone in the room. He poured himself a drink, downing like water and then burst into laughter, “Skyler, you heartless woman. You just left without a trace. Do you know, I’ve been searching for you all over the world these past few months, living like a ghost. Skyler, have you really forgotten our years of love? Don’t you miss our old times?”

Getting to the heartbreaking part, Zavier started chugging from the bottle. Soon, the bottle was empty, but he didn’t stop. After searching the world and not finding Skyler, he started drinking every day, not caring about his business, wasting away like a walking corpse.

His grandfather even warned him that if Zavier continued to wallow like this, he would call a shareholders meeting to elect a new CEO, but it had no effect. Zavier was highly capable, and Rivera Inc. was firmly under his control. Not even his grandfather could interfere with him or Rivera Inc.

After finishing a bottle, he opened another. In his drunken haze, he seemed to see Skyler again. He laughed bitterly. “Heartless woman, you left me so easily. Why should I be the one suffering endlessly? Are you worth it?”

Was she worth it?

He knew best! She was so worth it!

Without any unexpected events, he would be drinking till dawn again, falling asleep in a drunken stupor, and waking up groggily.
