Chapter 1969


    Chapter 1969 Protecting You Is My Mission


    The two colleagues were close because they hung out often and knew each other rather well. Vivian,


    who had been slouching, nodded when she heard that question. “Yeah, he’s leaving.” “Leaving? Where


    is he going? Why isn’t he staying here with you?”


    For the longest time, Vivian couldn’t answer. See? That is what everybody assumed would happen, so


    why am I not allowed to have those same thoughts? Isn’t it normal for me to want to build my career


    and have him here with me all the time?


    Vivian tilted her head back down. Sadly, she replied, “He’s going to Gronga because the people there


    have been waiting for him to clock in for a while now.” “Huh?”


    Suddenly, the light glowing in Vivian’s colleague’s eyes changed. He became more understanding. “I


    guess that makes sense. Your boyfriend is the top student who graduated in architecturest year and


    is the prized student of his professors here. I heard that he recently got his Masters as well, so I guess


    you really shouldn’t stand in his way.”


    “I’m standing in his way?” “No, no. Sorry. That was a poor choice of words. What I meant is that it


    would be a waste to keep his talents hidden. If he were to build a career, he would likely overtake


    Mika Weasley.”


    Mika Weasley was the most famous architect in the world. Vivian was stunned. She stared numbly


    at her colleague and couldn’t speak for quite some time.


    Twenty minutester, Kurt showed up right in front of her. He was like a tornado ande to her in a


    blink of an eye. He didn’t even say a word before he held her wrist. “Kurt?”


    Vivian was scared. She stared nkly at the guy with bloodshot eyes, and her mind turned numb. He


    was terrifying at the time, and she had never seen that side of him before.


    “Come here with me. I need to talk to you about something,” said Kurt. He had tried his best to calm


    himself down to prevent scaring her.


    Unfortunately, even as he was holding her, his hand was still trembling. He also had to work especially


    hard to keep his tone even. Vivian had no choice but to follow him along.


    Bang! As soon as they left the ce, Kurt led her to a rather secluded area and pushed her against the


    wall. He was much taller than she was, so his shadow towered over her and engulfed her.


    “What did you mean earlier when you said, via the phone, that we should stay apart for now?” asked


    Kurt in a coarse voice. His lips were so pale that they scared her.


    Vivian swallowed hard. She had never seen him like that before, so for a moment there, she couldn’t


    think. She couldn’t handle the stress.


    “I-I don’t really mean anything by it. It’s just… Didn’t you say that you want to go to Gronga? I’ve


    thought about it, and you should go. You can build your career there.” “And?”


    “A-And once your career has gained traction, we can get back together.” The pressure Kurt put on


    Vivian was too heavy, so she couldn’t do much except answer fearfully and truthfully.


    Fortunately, he seemed to have eased up after hearing what she said. The scary aura he exuded


    slowly faded as well. “Have you forgotten who I really am?”


    “Huh?” Vivian blinked her big, round eyes in confusion because she was still reeling in her emotions.


    She couldn’t understand what he was saying at all.


    Kurt replied, “I am your guardian. Your dad saved me all those years ago and took me to SteelFort.


    That means that my only mission in life is to protect you.”


    Vivian couldn’t speak. For the longest time, Vivian was in a daze, and all she could do was stare at the


    young man who was two years younger than she was.


    Her heart, however, was thumping wildly with passion. The second she heard those words, she felt as


    though something had filled her mind and soul.


    There was nothing more touching than a heartfelt confession from the man she loved. That was


    something Vivian was certain of.


    The man she fell in love with had never said anything corny because he was cool and was a man of


    few words. Whenever he wanted to show how much he loved her, he would do something for her. It


    was almost impossible to get him to say anything sweet.


    Yet, at that moment, he had dered that his mission in life was to keep her safe for all eternity…

    Vivian got teary.


    “I don’t need you to protect me. You are not a man my dad hired. You are the man I love, and we are


    equals, so you should go to Gronga.”


    “But…”


    “I’ll go with you.”


    Vivian caressed Kurt’s handsome face, which had turned pale once more, then tiptoed to nt a kiss


    on his soft lips.


    Kurt was surprised.


    The tall, muscr man was stunned in ce for a moment before he shifted his gaze to the young


    woman who was kissing him. His mind turned nk immediately.


    That was their first kiss.


    The two of them had dated for years, but he had always seen her as the most precious treasure in the


    world. Not once had he ever crossed the line or let his lust get hold of him. At most, he would kiss her


    forehead softly.


    He never thought that things would unfold that way.


    Kurt lost his hearing because all of his blood had flushed to his brain, and all he could see was the


    woman who had tiptoed and was kissing him.


    Mmm…


    Passion filled Kurt’s gaze, and the young, virile man finally reacted to the kiss. He reached out and


    pulled that little minx into his arms, then held her tightly before kissing her back even more


    passionately.


    Vivian didn’t say anything, but…


    Huh? What am I doing? Ah! What have I done?


    Vivian felt as though an explosion had gone off in her mind, causing an endless humming in it.


    No one knew how much time had passed, but Vivian was on the verge of passing out from being out of


    breath when someone finally showed up. Kurt had no choice but to let Vivian go then.
