Chapter 1634


    Chapter 1634


    Even in her naiveté, Skyler could sense Garrett’s intentions, and a wave of fear washed over her. After


    all, she was in his domain, and if he chose to harm her, she wouldn’t have a chance to cry for help. Her


    fingers fumbled quietly for her cell phone inside her small purse, contemting a distress call, but


    she hesitated to make the next move.


    Garrett squeezed in closer to her again. “Skyler! You’re Skyler, right? How about I call you Sky from


    now on?”


    Skyler recoiled in rm, her legs so weak she could hardly move. “Garrett, please show some respect.


    I’m engaged.”


    In the face of danger, her thoughts flew to Zavier. Zavier, the aloof second son of the Rivera family,


    might not have cared for her, but his name carried weight. As his fiancée, who would dare touch her?


    Skyler’s blend of fear and newfound defiance seemed to amuse Garrett. He burst intoughter. “Ha!


    Are you engaged? Skyler, what do you think I’m going to do to you? Sure, you’re pretty, but I’ve met


    plenty of women far more beautiful than you, ha!”


    Her face flushed, but whether it’s from fright or embarrassment, Skyler couldn’t tell.


    Garrett settled back down, his expression turning serious as he gazed at Skyler. “I’ve had my share of


    tutors who came here under the guise of teaching my brother, but they were actually after my dad or


    trying to seduce me. I was just testing you… Now, let me be clear. You passed my test. You can start


    teaching at my ce tomorrow.”e2


    Whether it was a test or a power y to humiliate a stranger, Skyler refused to swallow her pride. She


    red at Garrett, fury rising. “Garrett, I’m sorry to say you didn’t pass my test!”


    With that, she stood up and left. Despite trembling legs, Skyler’s steps were graceful as she walked


    away. Eighteen years of upbringing by the Blue family hadn’t been for nothing.


    Garrett watched her slim and graceful retreating figure, a smirk ying on his lips. “You know it’s hard


    to hail a cab from here, right? Are you sure you want to leave just like that?”


    Skyler ignored him and quickened her pace.


    His smile gradually faded into a frown. “Coming right up to my doorstep and then ying hard to get? If


    you want to y games, I’m game.”


    Stepping out of the Horton estate felt like escaping a tiger’s den. Skyler’s nerves ckened, and her


    legs went weak. She had to lean against a roadside tree to stay upright.


    This was a residential area, and there were no taxis in sight. Now, she couldn’t even call a ride.

    She pulled out her phone, thinking of reaching out to Zavier to see if he was nearby and could give her


    a lift. As she took out her phone, she remembered she didn’t even have Zavier’s contact information.


    She didn’t have any way to reach anyone from the Rivera family. After all, she was just a toy the Blue


    family had offered up, insignificant even to her own family, let alone the Riveras.


    Beyond the Rivera family, she knew no one in the Capital.


    Skyler pocketed her phone with a sigh, resigning herself to walking out of the neighborhood to find a


    cab, when suddenly, a yellow sports car sped towards her like a bullet.
