The Love that Never Really Dies (Sasha and Sebastian) -
Chapter 1662
Clang! Unexpectedly, something dropped out of her bag while she was doing that.
Kurt looked down when he heard the crisp sound that rang out as the object landed on the ground.When he saw that it was a dagger with colorful patterns on its sheath, the young man's expressionchanged at once.
"You..."
“No, it's not what you think. I didn't steal this. You gave it to me yourself.”
Vivian noticed the object on the floor as well.
She picked it up in a fluster and hugged it close to her chest as if she was worried that Kurt wouldtake it back from her.
Since he was no longer by her side, she did not want to lose the only item which he had given heras well.
However, after Kurt saw the dagger, his expression darkened and he stared at it intensely. Seeingthe look on his face, Vivian got increasingly worried that he would snatch it back from her.
What is he thinking about?
Is he going to change his mind?
Is he going to take it back now that he no longer remembers anything?
Vivian tightened her grip on the dagger, finally bursting into tears.
"You... Are you thinking of taking it back? Since it was a gift from your mom, you would want tohave it back, right?”
However, Kurt did not reply her.
Instead, he continued staring at the dagger, his eyes filled with pain, shock, and sorrow.
When Vivian saw the look on the man's face, she felt as if her heart had just been stabbed.
She suddenly remembered that he had not managed to replace his mom and sister yet. Since that wasthe case, the dagger must have meant a lot to him.
At that thought, all color drained out of her face at once.
In the end, the kind-hearted Vivian stepped toward Kurt and handed him the dagger, together withthe draft.
“Don't be sad. Here, I will return it to you,” she said, passing the items to him.
She would do anything to make him feel better.
Kurt looked up at Vivian. When he saw her eyes that were brimming with tears, he felt as if he wasstabbed in the heart by a knife.
He felt utterly defeated and could hardly keep up with his pretense any longer.
Why is she so silly!
In the end, Kurt never figured out how Vivian had managed to leave the place. All he knew was thatwhen he finally came back to his senses, the two items were already placed next to his bed.
At the same time, he noticed that Lucy was now inside the room, kneeling next to him.
“Prince Kurt, please don't be fooled by them. As you know, we have a rule in Elysium that doesn'tallow us to have excessive communication with outsiders. The rule was set by the king, and if hereplaces out that you're working with those people, he won't let you off.”
"Oh, is that so?”
Kurt finally spoke, with a hint of defiance and hostility in his voice.
“If that's the case, I will keep doing that. You can report it to him. I'm interested to know what hewould do to me,” After the young man finished speaking, he took the two items with him andwalked out of the room while Lucy remained kneeling on the floor.
Even after Kurt disappeared from her sight, she continued staring at the door with resentmentwritten all over her face.
Vivian Wand, why can't you just leave him alone!
After Vivian returned to Cooper residence, she locked herself in her room for the entire day. Soundsof crying could be heard coming from her room upstairs intermittently.
Riley could feel her heart aching for the girl when she heard that.
A representative from the Cultural Affairs Bureau visited the house in the evening and informedRiley that the Elysium-themed fashion show that Vivian had organized was a hit on the internet.Because of that, the bureau had received numerous inquiries from global fashion companies thatare interested in collaborating with the tribe.
“Have you guys contacted Elysium? Are they OK with that?” Riley asked.
“We have already checked with them. The prince of Elysium has agreed to it and even offered tomake a trip here to sign the agreements with the merchants if needed,” the bureau representativesaid, smiling from ear to ear.
Oh my God! The prince is coming here personally to sign the agreements!
Even though Riley was excited about that, she could not help but worry at the same time.
That night, the Cultural Affairs Bureau handed the written reply from Elysium over to Riley. Sheopened the letter and saw that there was something else in the envelope—a dagger with colorfulpatterns on its sheath.
“This is?”
“This is a token given by the prince of Elysium. We just need to take this with us and show it to themwhen we visit the place next time. Oh, the director of the bureau also wanted to ask if PrincessVivian could help us complete our first business deal. Since it was her idea, it would be ideal if shecould act as the intermediary for the merchants and Elysium,” the representative explained.
It would be a tricky situation for the bureau to handle the matter directly, especially since doingbusiness was not their forte in the first place. Moreover, it did not seem like a good idea for thoseinternational merchants to liaise with a backward tribe on their own
As such, it seemed like Vivian, who had been studying abroad, was the best candidate to assist inthe matter.
Riley agreed that it was a good suggestion as well and headed upstairs to speak to Vivian with theletter in hand
"Vivian, open the door. There's a letter from Kurt.”
“What?”
As expected, just hearing the name "Kurt" was enough to get the girl, who had locked herself in theroom crying the entire afternoon, to open the door.q
