Chapter 1750
Vivian responded, "All right.We'll stay here to have some fun for a couple of days.Nina, you'll have to
start attending elementary school soon, right?"
She then gently stroke the back of Nina's head.
Upon hearing that, Nina ran to Kurt and hugged his thigh.
"I don't want to go to school."
Kurt did not know how to react to Nina's plea.He looked at his sister's puppy eyes and went soft.He
squatted down and said to her, "If you want to do well when you grow up, you must go to school."
"Why?* the seven-year-old could not quite understand what Kurt was implying.
Vivian then walked over and squatted beside Nina.
"We need to equip ourselves with the knowledge so that we live the life that we've always dreamed
of.That's why I'm also studying hard so that one day I can become a successful designer."
"Designer?"
"Yeah.I want to become a fashion and accessories designer.What do you think of the clothes I'm
wearing now?"
To spark Nina's interest in education, Vivian stood up and spun around to display her clothes.
Yet, Nina did not resonate with Vivian's inspiration.
As a child who came from a war-torn region, Nina could hardly relate to materialistic values.
But Kurt knew the best way to get her attention was to get her to envision her future.
At first, he kept mum.
After Vivian left, he gazed into her eyes and said, "Listen to me, Nina.You're no longer a princess, and
we won't be going back to Elysium anymore.You understand?"
"But why?"
The little girl instantly burst into tears upon hearing what he said.
Tears welled up in Nina's beautiful eyes, and her body started trembling.She looked at Kurt in shock as
she could not understand why she could not return to Elysium.
Why can't I become a princess again? Kurt replied, "Because we don't belong to Elysium anymore.The
monarchy should have been abolished a long time ago.We're living in a world where everyone receives
equal treatment.The people in Elysium should be given such a privilege too."
That remark rendered Nina speechless.
"So from now on, you must be independent and learn to survive on your own since you won't have
servants to take care of you anymore.Don't dream of marrying into a wealthy family and living
comfortably for the rest of your life.You must not forget about this!"
Once again, Kurt reminded his sister.
In Elysium, princesses from the royal family received everything on a silver platter.
Nina, too, enjoyed this kind of privilege despite being kept in confinement.
Before the abolishment of the Elysium monarchy, princesses were either married to prominent tribal
chiefs or noblemen.
That was why Nina was stunned when Kurt told her that.
"What about you, Kurt? Does that mean you have to study and work to earn a living?"
"Of course.After this, I'll be pursuing my studies overseas.After completing my studies, I'll get a job and
make money to support your education.And..."
He then took a glance at the girl who was playing with Jeffrey.
Nina understood what Kurt wanted for his future.I bet he's determined to marry Vivian.
Poor Kurt, I'm sure he'll have to work extra hard to prove that he's worthy of her love.I somehow feel
his future in-laws are extremely rich.
Perhaps they're even much wealthier than our royal family.
Kurt might have to spend a lot on dowry if he plans to marry the girl of his dream.
Nina went into deep thought for a moment.
"All right.I'll attend school then.I want to master a skill that can help me earn lots of money."
"Earn lots of money?"
"Yeah.I want to chip in some money to help you marry your wife too! I know we're no longer in the
palace, and Mom is not with us anymore, but don't worry, I'm still around.I'll make lots and lots of
money for you to marry Vivian!"
The little girl said with great confidence and patted Kurt's shoulder.
Kurt had no idea how to react to her words.His face was flushed with embarrassment.He wished he
could teach her a lesson by giving her two tight slaps on the cheeks.
Despite his embarrassment, Kurt was relieved that he managed to change Nina's mind.
When Kurt told Vivian that he had successfully persuaded Nina to go to school, Vivian immediately
went to look for Jonathan to ask for his help to enroll Nina in a school.
But at that time, Jonathan was talking to someone over the phone.
"You'd be surprised how good I am in matchmaking.The daughter from the Cooper family is a nice and
capable lady, and everyone in Jadeborough knows that.What's your concern? Do you think she's not
compatible with your son?"
It's not even New Year, and Grandpa is already busy playing matchmaker? He sounded as if he was
threatening the family, though.
Vivian pulled Kurt aside and continued eavesdropping on the conversation.She wanted to know what
arrangement Jonathan had in mind for Riley.
