Chapter 1550


    Chapter 1550 Betrayal


    Ian knew Kurt might have appeared because of Sebastian’s arrangement. That was why he wouldn’t ask


    Kurt too many questions, nor would he get in Kurt’s way.


    After Kurt cleaned Ian’s wound, they both stood up. “Hey, while you were on your way here, did you


    see Vivi and Duncan? Where are they?”


    Kurt answered honestly, “I did not see Duncan, but I found Vivi in a cave. She sprained her ankle, so I


    got her somewhere safe before I came to find you.”


    Ian was surprised that Vivian and Duncan came in. “They came here too? What is this ce anyway?


    How did they evene across this spot?”


    “There’s a cavern right under the path you took. We came in through that ce. Since you’re injured


    now, I’ll take you back to where Vivi is. Leave Duncan to me. I can search for him myself,” Kurt suddenly


    suggested.


    Ian noticed his cold gaze, but he looked away after a moment and stared at the dusty cave.


    “It’s all right. I’ll go with you. If my guess is correct, this ce should be Eddie’s base back when Daddy


    and his friends fought him. Right after the battle, Daddy even came to look for the equipment’s research


    before he got into trouble. He gave it to me, but I couldn’t make them, so I gave them to Duncan.”


    Kurt said nothing, and silence fell between them. It was not a peaceful silence, however, for the


    atmosphere was tense. It was nothing but the calm before the storm.


    In the end, Kurt took Ian and went deeper into the base. They did not have to worry about Vivian, since


    Kurt knew the ce like the back of his hand, and she had GPS in her smartphone. He could locate her


    whenever he wanted.


    They went deeper into the base, and just as expected, they came to the center of the cavern about half


    an hourter. It was the research base under the temple that Sebastian had locked away.


    When they came to the ce, they heard the sound of something being knocked about. It was the sound


    of a ss container being rubbed, but it also sounded like a metallic item being knocked about.


    Ian was as pale as a sheet of paper. He stood at the entrance, and he stopped walking. It took all he had


    to look at the person within the base, and he couldn’t even walk.


    Found him. When Kurt saw the person, his eyes were filled with murderous intent, and it permeated the


    air around him. “You stay here. I’ll go inside alone.”


    He patted Ian’s shoulder before he went into the base alone.


    He knew how Ian was feeling. Because of his personality, it was hard for him to make friends whom he


    could fully trust. The reason he cheered up and became a happy guy over thest three years was


    thanks to Duncan.


    But now, Kurt held the deepest hatred against Duncan. “What are you doing?”


    “Huh?” Duncan was taking notes and rummaging through the ruinedb apparatus when Kurt appeared


    out of nowhere. As he was taken aback, his book fell out of his hands.


    “K-Kurt… What brings you here?”


    “I’m asking the questions here. What are you doing?” Kurt asked with an icy tone.


    Kurt stared at the thing Duncan was holding, and his gaze was sharp. If anyone were to see him in this


    state, they would shudder.


    Duncan didn’t just shudder; all the color drained from his face. “Kurt… I-I came to find Ian. He’s lost, a-


    and I found this ce, s-so I wanted to take some notes…” He scrambled for an exnation.

    Every time he faced Kurt, he was filled with anxiety. Kurt was distant, aloof, and he never smiled.


    Whenever Duncan met his gaze, he would always feel a shiver running up his spine.


    Duncan had always been reluctant to see Kurt, and he’d always give Kurt a wide berth. However, his


    luck had finally run out.


    “Take notes? Do you know what this ce is? Or is this the real reason you took the two of them here


    today? You’re trying to get your hands on all the data here, aren’t you?” Kurt mocked him.


    He went over to pick the notebook up. When he skimmed through it, he saw all the data that was written


    in it. It was a perfect copy.


    Kurt was a genius in chemistry. After he came to this ce, he didn’t even have to do any test to know


    what the residue lying around the ce was.


    Duncan paled and wanted to exin himself bying up with an excuse, but it was useless.


    At that moment, he saw Kurt tearing the notebook apart, then he gripped Duncan tightly and hurled him


    toward the dustyb table.


    Duncan screamed.


    “Kurt, wait a minute!” At the same time, Ian finally came to the scene. He shouted out to Kurt and stared


    at Duncan, who was moments away from getting his neck snapped.


    Ian’s face was pale and ashen, as if he was a corpse.
