Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover

Chapter 1654

Chapter 1654

In the end, Vivian followed Kristoff to the palace.

To avoid any suspicion, Kristoff dressed her up as an Elysium girl.He even put on her a facial scarf that was worn by attendants before taking her in.

In truth, Vivian had visited the palace before as an honored guest in her capacity as a Jadeson.

Therefore, she was familiar with the place.

Nevertheless, the moment she saw the palace with its turquoise-green lake in front, she was filled with mixed emotions.

To her, the place looked like a cage that had imprisoned her beloved Kurt.

Just the thought alone caused her to feel depressed.

"Let's go" Kristoff remarked when he sensed her sadness.

Truthfully, he did not want his grandson, who had barely survived, to return to the palace.

After having seen how his children suffered for being involved with the royal family, Kristoff resolved to help Kurt escape the wretched place.

Thus, he would do everything he could to provide Vivian with all the assistance she needed.

Finally, they arrived in front of the ancient palace.

The next moment, a man came out from the inside and greeted Kristoff warmly, "Sire, are you here to see Prince Kurt?"

Staring coldly at the scene, Vivian could feel the irony of the situation.

Back when she and Kurt first arrived, they saw Kristoff doing everything alone with no one to help him.

Even at home, he would be ostracized and ridiculed by the others.

But now, everything had changed.

Everyone in the tribe tried to ingratiate themselves with him.

Naturally, Kristoff saw through the hypocrisy.

After exchanging pleasantries, he led Vivian right inside.

Upon their entry, Vivian could not help but feel excited over the fact that she was finally able to see Kurt.

After walking across the ancient hall where they were entertained the other day, she arrived at a corridor adorned with golden-colored ambers.

With no impurities inside them, the ambers made the entire place look like a palace made of golden crystal.

"Mr.Calyette, what is this?"

"Oh, this is the golden amber that comes from the Black Marsh.A long time ago, we used to offer this to the royal family as a tribute.In fact, they are considered priceless gemstones.However, this practice has been stopped now.Back then, the royal family wanted to take control of all of it.Hence, they ordered the tribesmen to mine everything out of the Black Marsh.Unfortunately, by the time it was empty, many men had died in the process,"

Kristoff explained with a sigh.

Generally, a tribe with a history of more than a thousand years would naturally live through a few dynasties. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

For a tribe that was still able to maintain its power in modern times, no one had expected them to have such a brutal history.

As both of them continued walking, they arrived at a small arched bridge that was covered by a dame peppered with red gemstones.

Raising her gaze, Vivian noticed two figures emerging from within a dull-colored building.

The building looked dull simply because it was not adorned with golden amber.

Instead, it was made of wood.

Even so, Vivian, who had been exposed to a lot, recognized it as agarwood, which was extremely expensive due to its unique scent.

Given that the entire building in front of her was built from agarwood, the fragrant scent it emitted filled the air.

As for the two figures upstairs, they were sitting on the balcony behind billowing curtains.

One seemed to be painting, while the other was mixing some paint.

At that moment, Vivian felt as if her mind was blown.

"He's painting right now.In his current condition, all he remembers is what had happened before he was ten.As for everything else, he needs to relearn them from scratch" Kristoff explained before letting out a sigh.

Upon hearing his words, Vivian felt as if she was hit by a bucket of cold water, causing her face to lose all its color.

The year when he was ten...No, that's impossible.

If it really was before he was ten, wouldn't he lose all his memories of the Hayes family? How is that possible? We have been through so much together, and my family has brought him so much warmth.

Vivian just could not believe it.

After looking at them with reddened eyes, she began running in their direction.

"Kurt! Kurt!" she yelled.

At that moment, she had forgotten that she was in disguise and was not supposed to reveal herself.

When Kristoff saw her reaction, he went after her immediately.

After coming up to the balcony, Vivian saw that both figures were jolted by her screams.

At the exact moment she saw them, the female attendant, who was decked out in jewelry, glared at her in return.

As for Kurt, he was dressed in a way that did not look like him at all.

When he shifted his gaze over, Vivian could see the distance and resentment on his face
