Chapter 1618 A Change Of Bodyguard


    Meanwhile, Karl sent Vivian home.


    As soon as she arrived home, she rushed off to contact her father. “I’m going to find Daddy to report


    what I found today.”


    It was her first time carrying out a mission, so she was understandably filled with excitement.


    Wearing an amused yet helpless smile, Karl watched her run upstairs.


    A few minutester, Vivian reached her room and began a video call with Sebastian. Once he epted


    the call, she quickly reported what she had discovered that day.


    “Daddy, guess what? I seeded in getting close to Jason. He doesn’t suspect anything. I even spent


    the whole afternoon with him,” she said excitedly.


    “Really? Sweetie, you did so well on your first mission.” Sebastian did not hold back with his praises at


    all.


    As expected, she was happy to hear his praise. Her face flushed with joy as she sat before herptop.


    “Yes, Daddy. Don’t worry about it. I have arranged to meet him tomorrow. What do you want me to do


    next? You can tell me,” Vivian said.


    Sebastian was still worried about her, so he advised, “Let’s not rush things. We need to wait until he has


    lowered his guard before doing anything. Also, remember not to be too obvious. Otherwise, he will


    suspect something is up.”All text ? N?velD(r)a''ma.Org.


    Vivian agreed with him obediently.


    She was a smart child, after all.


    Sasha, sitting beside Sebastian, queried him after he ended the call. “Sebby, what do you want Vivian to


    do next? Are you going to ask her to sound Jason out?”


    “Of course not. We can’t get any information from him.” He denied it, much to her surprise.


    Soon, her eyes widened with realization.


    If it’s not Jason, does it mean that he wants to…


    “You—”


    Perceiving her concern, he hurriedly exined, “Don’t worry, I have nned everything. I won’t ask her


    to interact with that woman directly. Her mission is to gain Jason’s trust and find out his mother’s secret


    from him. Once she does that, Karl will be able to take over. By then, she will have retreated.”


    Sebastian was telling the truth. Jason’s mother must have something to do with his appearance that


    resembled Calvin one hundred percent. Presuming that she had conspired with Eddie’s men that year,


    she must have been in contact with them for the past twenty years.


    Sebastian probably had never caught wind of it because Jason’s mother either hid it too well or the


    mastermind arranged it for her. Otherwise, with his power and connections, he would have found out


    about it ages ago.


    Sasha understood Sebastian’s intention after hearing his exnation.


    Nevertheless, she was still a little worried.


    “Judging from your n, Vivi will have to follow Jason to the royal residence. Who will protect her there?


    We don’t know much about Jason’s mother. Wouldn’t Vivi be in danger without a bodyguard?” she


    asked.


    Her concern caused Sebastian to fall deep in thought.


    She’s right. I can’t let Vivian be in danger.


    At Ipston, Kurt only found out that Vivian had transferred to another school the following morning.


    Furthermore, he discovered that she had a new bodyguard who would be following her into Regalius


    Academy by pretending to be a student there.


    What is going on?


    He stood motionlessly at the construction site after receiving two photos from an anonymous sender on


    his smartphone.


    Seeing that he was not moving, the professor shouted quickly, “Kurt, what are you doing? It’s dangerous


    there. Come over here now.”


    Kurt finally came to his senses and averted his gaze from the screen. With a stiff gait, he followed the


    professor out of the construction site.


    What shocked him was not Vivian’s sudden transfer to another school but the fact that they had changed


    her bodyguard. It was out of the blue, and he was not informed about it.


    How could they change her bodyguard just like that?


    Kurt was in a daze for the whole afternoon. Once the survey at the construction site was over, he could


    not bear to wait anymore and quickly called a number on his smartphone.


    Beep… Beep…


    “Hello?” said a familiar, deep, and authoritative male voice.


    Kurt became nervous instantly. “M-Mr. Hayes, it’s me, Kurt.”


    “Yes, I know it’s you. What’s wrong? Is something the matter?” Sebastian asked.


    His tone was calm, just like how he usually sounded whenever theymunicated.


    On the other hand, Kurt gripped his phone so tightly that his knuckles turned white.


    “Mr. Hayes, I… I want to ask you something. Have you nned anything else for me? I have been


    following the professor to the construction site for my internship for the past two days. It’s a little boring,”


    he said.


    Although he wanted to ask Sebastian about the sudden change of Vivian’s bodyguard, he decided


    against it and chose to approach the matter indirectly.


    The young man still distanced himself from the Hayeses. He would have asked Sebastian directly if he


    viewed himself as a part of the family. However, he did not.


    Despite urgently wanting to inquire about the matter, he resisted the urge and used a more tactful


    method to query.


    “Yes, I have another assignment for you,” Sebastian answered tly.


    In a split second, the color drained from Kurt’s face.
