He had never bought them presents before.
Even though he respected them and was willing to lay down his life for them, it had never occurred to him to buy
them presents.
Since they were already filthy rich, he was worried that they might not like his presents.
Besides that, he had no good reason to do so.
Kurt felt a little embarrassed when Vivian insisted on buying gifts for her parents in his name.
In the end, Kurt relented after Vivian paid for the gifts. He couldn't bring himself to reject her when she was
thoughtful enough to pick an inexpensive gift.
The both of them boarded the plane soon after.
It was already late when they arrived at Miralaea since it was a layover flight. Vivian was about to call Sebastian to
send a car to pick them up when panic flashed across Kurt's face.
Vivian was a sharp one. She immediately put her phone back, walked outside, and hailed a cab.
“Let's go and give Daddy a surprise. Who knows, we might even reach before dinnertime.” She pulled open the car
door and tried to lighten the mood.
Kurt pursed his lips.
He felt ashamed as Vivian had been taking care of his feelings ever since she arrived.
This is absurd! As a guy, how could I let her carry all that emotional baggage?

After forty minutes, both of them finally saw the Seaside Villa. Kurt couldn't help but curl his fingers up as he stared
at the lights flickering in the gentle sea breeze.
Will Uncle Sebastian be even angrier when he sees me?
However, this time around, he didn't run away. Instead, he carried the gifts Vivian bought and followed her into the
villa.
“Daddy! Mommy!”
Her feminine voice rang out in the hallway as she could barely contain her excitement. Sasha and Sebastian turned
to face the entrance when they heard her.
“Vivi? Why are you here? My gosh, you should have told us you were coming. Why did you come back so
suddenly?”
Sasha spoke as she made her way toward Vivian.
She was looking for some wine glasses in the wine cabinet when she caught sight of Vivian, someone she had never
expected to see at this hour. She was so pleasantly surprised that she immediately put the wine glass down and
sprinted toward her daughter.
Vivian smiled in delight as she stared at her mother.
“Yeah. I wanted to give you a surprise. Mommy, did you miss me?”
“Of course!”
Sasha opened her arms and pulled Vivian into a tight hug.
Right then, Sebastian walked over.
However, he couldn't allow himself to be as emotional as Sasha since he was a man. Hence, after a brief delight,
his gaze landed on Kurt, who stood behind Vivian.
“Why are you suddenly here?”
“Uncle Sebastian, I...”
“Daddy, we haven't had our dinner yet. Have you eaten? I'm so hungry.”
Vivian cut Kurt off just as he was about to speak.
Vivian let go of Sasha, rubbed her stomach, and declared she wanted dinner. Sebastian and Kurt had no chance to
speak to one another at all.
Sasha knew something was up. Else her daughter wouldn't show up with Kurt at this hour. Moreover, it seemed as if
Vivian wasn't planning on letting Sebastian and Kurt speak to one another on purpose.
Ah, I get it.
“Okay, let's have dinner then. We can talk later after dinner.”
She then waltzed into the kitchen and brought out the dishes.
After about an hour, Sebastian finally had his fill. Sasha pulled Vivian, who was taking her own sweet time at the
dinner table, up upon seeing that.
“Come on, Vivi, let's go for a walk. I ate too much.”

Vivian wasn't willing to leave just yet.
She was worried about how her father would treat Kurt after she left.
In the end, however, Sasha managed to drag her away.
The air became thick with tension after Sasha and Vivian left. It felt as if there was a sudden drop in temperature
during summer.
Kurt didn't dare look Sebastian in the eye.
He put his fork down and slowly rose from the chair.
“Uncle Sebastian, I...”
“I only have one question for you. Why did you hide Daphne's real identity from me?”
Sebastian finally spoke up in a casual tone.
He had calmed down after contemplating the issue for the entire day.
“I didn't want people from Elysium to know that I'm still alive. Daphne is Elysium's former high priest. That man
ruptured her tendons and threw her into the River of Styx because she tried to help Sinai become king,” Kurt
answered honestly without missing a beat.
“Sinai? Your half-brother?”
“Yes. Cynthia is his mother. She committed treason under the bewitchment of Daphne when I was fifteen. In the
end, she lost the battle and received the death penalty. I never thought she would walk out of this alive.”
Kurt lowered his head and confessed all of his deepest darkest secrets.
