Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 1556

Chapter 1556 Is Kurt Your Brother

As such, Kurt volunteered to do the lifting.

“Nonsense. I’m bulkier and heavier than you. Plus, you rescued Lucy just now. It proved you’re agile. Go ahead.”

Unexpectedly, Matteo, who was born into an affluent family, rejected Kurt’s decision without hesitation.

He was even willing to let the latter step on his shoulder.

Kurt appeared hesitant for a while.

Eventually, he chose to comply with Matteo. He stepped on his shoulders and started digging for the crystals.

Their efficiency increased gradually due to their teamwork.

In the blink of an eye, Kurt’s cloth bag was filled to the brim.

“Is that enough?”

“It should be. We have to leave soon. If the next wave hits again, we will be in danger. We are right at the place where it hits.”

Matteo had a keen observation and paid attention to the tiniest details.

Previously, he had mastered all the wave patterns of the big river. As such, he read the situation and knew the danger that was about to approach.

Kurt obeyed him right away.

The two boys packed the black stones and left that hazardous area. After that, they climbed back up to safety after finding Lucy, who was still tied with a steel cable.

“Matt, you guys are finally back… Huh? Kurt? When did you go down too?”

Vivian, who had been waiting, was delighted to see Matteo. Yet, the next moment, she was stunned upon seeing Kurt.

While Kurt was at a loss for words, Matteo uttered, “I was the one who told him to go down as two people weren’t efficient enough. We’ve collected many of the black stones. Now we can go save Daddy.”

Matteo was sharp enough to notice Kurt’s nervousness. He knew the latter did not want to let Vivian know about it. Hence, he answered her question on Kurt’s behalf.

As expected, Vivian was immediately attracted to the bag full of black stones.

“That’s great. Let’s go save Daddy now.”

“Okay.”

With that, they came out of the cave happily.

That evening, Sasha, accompanying her eldest son at Oceanic Estate, heard the kids managed to get the black stones successfully.

Overwhelmed with joy, she went up the mountain without delay.

“Mommy, look. We’ve got the black stones. You can save Daddy now.”

“Yes.”

Her children ran toward her excitedly and showed her their achievements.

Upon seeing that, tears of gratitude welled up in Sasha’s eyes.
