“What happened, Kurt? Are you not happy to see me?”
Vivian was staring at him in delight, for she had spent a lot of effort to catch up to him.
The aircraft doors had closed by the time she arrived at the airport. Luckily for her, she recalled that the
airline company might belong to the Hayeses. Hence, she called Solomon for help.
That was why the plane was delayed for a few minutes.
What is the meaning of this? I spent so much effort trying to locate him, but he didn’t even react. Is he so
reluctant to see me?
Vivian bit her lip as her eyes started to cloud with tears.
Kurt was at a loss for words.
After a while, he finally came back to his senses.
Something inside him snapped as he felt a sudden rush of blood to his head. His hands shook as he
stared at the girl in front of him.
“T-That’s not it. Why are you here?”
“You’re asking me why I’m here? Why didn’t you tell me about this? Are you going to run away again like
last time? Man up, Kurt. You can’t keep doing this, okay?”
Vivian finally burst into tears as her walls came crumbling down.
Kurt was utterly stunned.
It felt as if someone had punched him in the gut as he stared at the tears flowing down her face. At that
moment, his mind went blank.
They had attracted the attention of his fellow passengers on board.
The passengers felt angry to see a girl board the plane, causing the flight to delay instead of some
technical problems.
However, they couldn’t help but start to care when they saw Vivian bawling her eyes out.
“What happened? Why is she crying?”
“Yeah. It breaks my heart to see those tears. Is that boy bullying her?”
“This is absurd. How could he bully such a cute little girl?”
The passengers on board started to side with Vivian.
After all, Vivian was a true beauty with her big, bright, beautiful eyes, delicate facial features, and
porcelain skin, making her look like a porcelain doll on display. Her beauty was so captivating that it
attracted a lot of attention.
Hence, it was almost impossible not to like her.
The young couple sitting in front of Kurt had also noticed the commotion. They turned around and stared
at Vivian as she bawled her eyes out.
“Um… Is she here for this guy?”
“I think so.”
The guy was also staring intently at Vivian.
Kurt was already back to his senses at the moment. He was at a loss as he watched Vivian cry her heart
out.
“D-Don’t cry. I’m not running away.”
“T-Then… why are you going away?”
“I…”
Kurt had wanted to tell her that he boarded the plane because he couldn’t come up with a better plan to
beg for her father’s forgiveness.
In the end, he flushed and kept quiet under the angry stares of the crowd.
Vivian was stunned as he pulled her onto his lap.
A tear rolled down her cheeks as she stared at him blankly.
Kurt’s heart went out to her when he saw those tears.
He quickly wrapped her up in his coat when he realized that Vivian was only dressed in pajamas.
He then took out some tissues to wipe those tears away.
“I’m not leaving. I just wanted… your father to forgive me.”
“But you didn’t do it on purpose. If you’re at fault, then I am too. I didn’t tell my dad about that old hag. He
should punish me too if he wants to punish you!”
Vivian sobbed as she articulated her thoughts with a firm and confident look.
Kurt paused.
How dumb does she have to be to even say that?
And what did I ever do to deserve her? What did I do to deserve such treatment? Does she not blame
me for everything that has happened? After all, I almost caused her a tragedy last night.
Kurt lowered his eye lids.
“Kurt, please, say something. Do you want to come with me to meet Daddy?”
“What?” He lifted his head abruptly.
“Meet your father?”
“Yeah. Let’s meet my dad together, shall we? We’ll explain everything to him. I’m sure he won’t put all the
blame on you since he’s such an understanding person. I believe he won’t make you leave SteelFort as
well. Kurt, let’s go?”
Vivian had always been protected and was always under the direction of others. It was the first time she
articulated her thoughts so clearly in front of another being.
There wasn’t a single doubt on her tear-stricken face as she spoke of her father.
Kurt heard himself agreeing to her proposal when he saw the determined look in her eyes.
