Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover

Chapter 1627 Nobody Realized How Kind She Was

“I-I…” Colors drained from Vivian’s face as she recalled the poisonous snakes that the woman summoned last night.

In that instant, a shiver ran down her spine.

“You can say that you and Sam wouldn’t have made it back last night if it wasn’t for Kurt. Moreover, Sam is already one of the best fighters in SteelFort, but his performance last night was lacking. That’s why Mr. Hayes got so angry,” Karl explained to Vivian.

However, he never told her that Kurt’s dishonesty was what foiled Sebastian’s plan.

The reason why he did that was that he suspected Daphne to be related to Calvin’s death.

But now, it looked like Karl had something more to worry about after finding out that Daphne was, in fact, Elysium’s high priest. She might very well be the mastermind behind all this. But what Vivian did yesterday had set them on high alert.

Karl felt really frustrated as well.

“No. No way. I don’t believe that Daddy will kick him out like that. Kurt didn’t do it on purpose. He already told me that Daphne was the high priest last night. It was my fault. I didn’t tell Daddy about it.”

“What?”

“I mean, if he’s at fault, then I am too. Mr. Frost, I beg you, please tell me which flight he’ll be on. I need to find him. I’ll take him to meet my father. I’ll beg for mercy, please?”

Vivian burst into tears as she held on to Karl’s hand and begged.

Kurt was nothing more than one of the many bodyguards that protected her.

However, Vivian felt so sad that she couldn’t stop the tears from running down her face. She squeezed Karl’s hand so hard that her knuckles turned white.

Does she really care so much about a mere bodyguard?

After all, there are so many choices in SteelFort for her to choose from.

In the end, Karl relented and gave her Kurt’s flight number.

Vivian immediately rushed to the airport without even changing out of her sandals.

Kurt was at the airport at the moment.

However, he couldn’t think straight anymore. He made his way to the airport during the wee hours mechanically and spaced out in the empty airport lounge.

He was at a loss of what to do next.

I should probably return to SteelFort. This might be my last chance.

It was just like how Sebastian told him he wasn’t a good fit for SteelFort four years ago. However, Kurt managed to convince him otherwise through a cruel training process that lasted for a year. Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

Will he forgive me if I do so?

A plan formed in his mind.

He had even forgotten about his mother and sister waiting for him back home. The only thing on his mind at the moment was to stay.

His fingers gradually curled into a fist.

After about ten minutes, his flight started to board.

“We’re finally boarding. I can finally go home.”

“Yeah. You’ve been studying abroad for so long now. Are you happy that you are finally able to return home?”

A young couple stood in front of him as he stood up. They were dressed in down jackets and wrapped in thick scarves. They look like international students from the bags they’re carrying.

“Of course I’m happy. I get to return with you.”

The girl beamed brightly at the boy, and he returned the smile.

Kurt moved his gaze away and boarded the plane with a blank face. He then sat down on his designated seat and stared blankly out the window.

Coincidentally, the young couple was sitting right in front of him.

“How are you planning to tell my dad about us? Also, what gift did you prepare?”

“Well… I’m still studying so I don’t have much money to buy gifts. But, I have an offer letter from a multinational company to present to him. Do you think he’ll like it?”

The boy rummaged through his bag and fished out a document.

The girl screamed in delight when she saw the offer letter.

Almost everyone on board heard her screaming, including Kurt.

This must be what true happiness sounds like, studying abroad and meeting someone right. The boyfriend even prepared a precious gift for his future father-in-law to assure him of a bright future ahead.

Kurt’s eyes dimmed as he squeezed the buckle in his hand.

The flight attendant announced through the speakers just as he was waiting for the flight to take off.

“Ladies and gentlemen, please be informed that there will be a few minutes delay due to a technical issue. Thank you for your kind understanding.”

The passengers onboard gave no response since it was only for a few minutes.

Kurt took out a pair of earbuds from his canvas bag, effectively blocking out the young couple’s conversation.

The next time he opened his eyes again was due to a commotion. After all, he had very sharp senses as a top assassin.

“Kurt, I finally found you.”

A familiar voice rang out from out of the blue.

A young girl with messy bed hair dressed in pajamas suddenly appeared in front of him. Kurt fell into a daze as he stared at her bright smile.

Am I dreaming?

I must be hallucinating right now.
