“No, he won't. I've arranged for him to do an internship.”
“Huh?”
Sasha was dumbfounded, finding it strange to have Kurt undergo an internship when he had only started attending
classes not long ago.
Nevertheless, she could not voice any objections to Sebastian's arrangement since he always had his reasons for
every decision he made.
Little did she know that even Karl could not seem to understand the logic behind Sebastian's decision.
“Why did you send Kurt away, Mr. Hayes? If that mother and son duo are related to Elysium, then wouldn't it be
safer to keep Kurt near Ms. Vivian so that he can protect her?” he asked as he prepared to head out.
“Kurt doesn't know that both of his brothers died serving the Hayeses,” Sebastian replied coldly.
His gaze had darkened, and his tone carried a touch of sorrow.
In his lifetime, the death of the brothers' struck the greatest remorse in his heart.
Just as many had died for his sake, many had also died at his hand. The more notable examples were his mother,
Frieda, and his best friend, Shawn.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, their deaths were mainly due to the nature of their relationship with him. Frieda died for him because she
was his mother, and Shawn died for him because they were best friends.
Had their positions been reversed, Sebastian would have sacrificed his life to save theirs, too, if they were in
danger.
The two brothers were a whole different story, though.
As employees of SteelFort, they had dedicated their lives to serving the Hayes family. In other words, their
relationship with Sebastian was that of a superior and subordinate, so he had only taken from them without giving
anything in return.
As such, he did not deserve to have them sacrifice their lives for him like that, especially since he would not have
done the same for them back then.
Sebastian gently stroked the other eagle-shaped cufflink as he continued, “Kurt has nothing to do with this
operation, and I intend to keep it that way. Since he doesn't know about the existence of his two brothers, it would
be best if he never finds out.”
“Got it, Mr. Hayes!”
Having finally understood the situation, Karl took the eagle cufflink over and left in a hurry.
He's right. This tragic incident is all in the past now, so nothing we do will change what happened in any way. Since
Kurt doesn't know about the existence of his brothers, he is spared from the pain of losing them. It's probably best
for things to remain like that.
With that in mind, he headed over to Yartran later that night.
Meanwhile, Vivian was anxiously waiting for Kurt's return in the garden of the villa. After what seemed like forever,
she finally saw him approaching from the distance. As always, he had on a blue hoodie and was carrying a canvas
bag over his shoulder.
“Kurt!”
Her eyes lit up with joy as she ran toward him as quickly as she could.
A faint smile formed on Kurt's lips when he looked up and saw how elated she was to see him.
Vivian wrapped her arms around his and beamed at him, chirping, “You're finally back!”
Although the two of them had gotten a lot closer lately, Kurt still tensed up from shyness when he saw the
housemaids looking at them.
“Yeah, I'm back. Why did you come out of the house? It's cold out here,” he replied while trying to pull his arm out.
To his dismay, Vivian only tightened her grip on his arm even further when she felt his movement.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I came out to welcome you home, Kurt! Daddy told me you're going to Ipston with the professor tomorrow. Will
you be gone for long? How about we go out for a nice dinner tonight?” Vivian pleaded with a pout while clinging
tightly to him.
For some reason, it pained Kurt to see her behaving like that.
“I can choose not to go there if you don't want me to.”
“Huh?”
Vivian stared wide-eyed at him in surprise.
What? He can stay? I mean, of course, I don't want him to go! Heck, I would even go to Regalius Academy with him
if I could! But Daddy said the bad guys responsible for Brother Cal's death are no ordinary people! He even ordered
Mr. Frost to come over and protect me personally! If it really is so dangerous, then all the more reason for me not
to put Kurt's life at risk!
With that in mind, Vivian replied, “No, that's not it! I'm really happy to hear that you're going to do an internship
with your professor so soon, Kurt! It's just that I'm going to miss you dearly while you're away, that's all.”
Her confession was so clear and straightforward that Kurt found himself blushing hard after hearing it.
If it were not for his high level of self-control, he probably would have done something irrational right there and
then.
“All right,” he said with his head lowered to hide his flushed cheeks.
