Chapter 1631 The Shocking Secret
Chapter 1631 The Shocking Secret
Of course, Kurt did not tell Sebastian that his supposed death many years ago was related to Daphne.
At the time, the rebel she had plotted with Cynthia failed. Before being thrown into the River of Styx, she explained to the king that she had foreseen the future where the king would die in the hands of his son and that it would be the son born at noon.
She told him that it was why she chose to take care of Sinai instead.
After hearing that, the king was infuriated. Not only did he order someone to sever her tendons and throw her into the River of Styx, but he also immediately arrested Kurt, who was only ten then.
That was because Kurt was also born at noon!
Sebastian finally had an idea of what had happened. Abruptly, he stood up from the dining table and walked over to the coffee table to pour himself a cup from the pot of coffee brewed specially for him.
“So, you’re afraid that she’ll reveal it to Elysium after recognizing you?”
“Yeah, Daphne is a narrow-minded and vengeful woman. She’ll find the chance to take revenge on whoever offended her. I-I still don’t have news of my mom and sister after all these years… I don’t want my identity to be exposed yet,” Kurt uttered as he held his head low.
To his surprise, there was not much reaction from the man before him.
“I didn’t tell you this. Your mom and sister are actually still alive.”
“What?” Kurt immediately raised his head and cast his gazes toward Sebastian. “Y-You know that they’re still alive?”
“Yes. In fact, you aren’t the reason why I asked Karl to head to Elysium back then. It was pure coincidence that he met you. I’ve sent him there for another purpose.”
“What is it?”
“Do you remember your brother?”
Sitting comfortably on the couch enjoying his coffee, the man suddenly shifted his gaze toward Kurt as he spoke.
Kurt was at a loss for words.
Brother? Which one?
He was slightly confused because there were way too many people he called brother and sister in the tribe.
“W-Who are you referring to?”
“Your aunt’s two sons. I don’t know their names while they’re at Elysium, but ever since my dad brought them back to the Hayeses, he named the older one Channing and the younger one Calvin. Calvin looks very much like Daphne’s son,” Sebastian revealed.
After cooling himself down for a day, he realized he should not have hidden the truth from Kurt, given the latter’s capabilities and intelligence. He hid it because he didn’t want Kurt to be involved in the matter.
But there was something he had forgotten—it was impossible not to drag Kurt into the matter since he was related to it.
The young boy was shocked!
Calvin? Channing?
He’s referring to the brothers that my aunt sent away even before I was born? So they were saved by the Hayeses?
Tears began to well up in Kurt’s eyes. An indescribable feeling surged through his chest and gushed up his throat that he could not bring himself to say anything.
He recalled the situation when he saved Vivian from the royal residence that night. She was bawling her eyes out as she told him she had followed Jason simply because of his strong resemblance to Calvin.
So, the person she calls Brother Cal is the same person I knew?
“It’s a pity the pair of brothers have sacrificed their lives for the Hayeses. So after I saw Jason, I’ve decided to investigate if he has anything to do with Calvin’s death.” Sebastian spoke again. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
An intense murderous vibe enveloped him when he reached the last part of his sentence.
After a long silence, Kurt finally jolted back to his senses and found his inner self suppressing the waves of emotions that crashed against his heart like a raging storm.
“Then… Do you mean Daphne also has something to do with Brother Cal’s death?”
“I’ve ruled out that possibility. Calvin died in their hands during my fight against Eddie’s underlings back then. And that person was called Hubert. The secret force behind him was Alfred, who’s Eddie’s puppet.”
Sebastian did not hide a single detail from Kurt this time.
He made a clear account of the events to the young boy in front of him. It was his way to show that he had officially treated Kurt as a member of the matter.
Kurt was both shocked and angry after hearing those words.
Of course, he knew who Eddie was.
He would never forget the training and education in SteelFort after being brought to the Hayeses, even when he learned that Eddie had already atoned for his sins. And that was a history that he would remind every newcomer, including himself.
In this case, it’s highly possible that Daphne is in cahoots with the remnants of Eddie. No, that’s not right. Things might be way worse than I’ve imagined them to be. Jason is already twenty, but Brother Cal’s death has only been eleven years. Does that mean they’ve been plotting the scheme way before Brother Cal’s death?
