Chapter 1653


    By the time Vivian was awake, she had been sent back to the small town, as Devin and her brothers


    were worried that she would lose control of herself at the feast.


    However, Vivian did not kick up a fuss this time.


    After staring nkly at the ceiling for a few minutes, she finally asked with her eyes still focused above


    her, "Did you manage to see him?"


    Matteo andn had no idea how to answer her question.


    They had obviously seen him at the feast when the king of Elysium introduced his recently returned son


    with great fanfare.


    Matteo replied, "Vivi, don’t overthink the matter.As of now, our priority is to verify that he''s safe.As for


    the rest, we''ll let Daddy decide once we''re back."


    The brothers felt it was for the best.


    Nheless, tears suddenly rolled down uncontrobly from Vivian''s eyes.


    "How can we do that? He hates that ce to the core.Furthermore, his mom, sister, aunt, and uncle


    were all killed by that beast.To him, that ce is no different from a living hell.How can we let him stay


    there?"


    Vivian cried out in agony.


    There was no way she would agree to their decision.


    Finally, Devin came over.


    "In that case...Matteo, you should stay here with Vivian.Coincidentally, I n to leave some troops in


    Elysium to monitor the situation, even though we have destroyed the remnants of Eddie''s forces.Thus,


    you and Vivian can stay here.At the same time, I''ll send someone else from Yorknd over."

    "Is this all right? Will their king agree to it?" Matteo scratched his head.


    Nodding, Devin stated, "He already has agreed after I told him about it.After all, he was always been


    fearful of those men.Despite the fact that we have annihted them, he still prefers us to leave some


    men behind to keep an eye out."


    Devin had already discussed the matter with the king of Elysium.


    Before Matteo could reply, Vivian sat up and grabbed his hand.


    "All right, then.Matt, let''s just stay back here’ she pleaded.Matteo responded with silence.With that, the


    siblings stayed behind with the small bunch of troops.In the meantime, Lucy did not recognize them


    still.As for Kurt, he never came out since then.Even though Vivian made various attempts to approach


    the pce, she did not manage to see him at all.Instead, she saw someone building a new house for


    Kurt''s grandparents.


    "Quick, pour in the cement! We have to make sure that the house has strong foundations! Also, the


    steel bars..."


    After tearing down the dpidated hut, a group of workers was busy building the new house.


    Meanwhile, Vivian watched them with a sorrowful expression.She thought back to the day when Kurt


    brought her into the house.


    His grandparents had served her a bowl of honey to drink.


    She could still remember how sweet the drink tasted back then.


    Suddenly, someone called out to her from behind, "Miss, why are you standing out here? Do you want


    to have a seat inside?"


    Turning around, she was surprised to see Kristoff.


    "You...speak ournguage?"


    "Of course I do.Kurt''s uncle studied outside of here.Hence, he taught us many things."


    When Kristoff saw Vivian, he smiled so widely that he revealed all his missing teeth.


    However, Vivian felt depressed after hearing the name.


    My Kurt.


    The next moment, she wiped her tears away in front of Kristoff.


    After a while, Kristoff finally tugged her by the sleeve and led her into their temporary lodging.


    Inside, he served her another bowl of honey.


    "Why did you bring her here?" Beatrice queried.


    "Isn''t she the girl that came with Kaiden the other day?"


    Kristoff replied with a sigh, "That''s right.Since she was crying, I figured that he probably doesn''t


    remember her anymore."


    After serving Vivian another drink, the old couple noticed that tears had begun to rain down from


    Vivian''s eyes.


    After pondering for a while, Kristoff finally asked, "Miss, do you want to see my grandson?"


    "I do!" Vivian replied without hesitation as she raised her gaze at him, teary-eyed.


    Kristoff nodded in response.


    "I can try and sneak you in to see him, but we can''t let the king know, as he doesn''t want Kaiden to


    remember us.Moreover, Kaiden is on a mission now.Only after he haspleted it can his mom and


    sister be released."


    "What did you say? His mom and sister are still alive?" Vivian asked, utterly shocked.


    Kristoff nodded.


    "Of course they are.However, only the king knows where they have been imprisoned.As a result, he


    has given Kaiden three months’ time to be worthy of inheriting the throne.Only then will he release both


    of them."


    As if she had been struck by lightning, Vivian just sat there with a bewildered expression.
