This time, his tone was significantly sharper than before. It sounded as if he was lecturing his own son.
In truth, life isn’t determined by fate. If it were, I would have died in the mental hospital when I was a teenager back then. Also, if Dad had resigned himself to his fate, he wouldn’t have met Mom, and I wouldn’t even have been born. Even though struggling against one’s supposed fate is a difficult and dangerous process, one will realize how glorious it is when one looks back at it in the future. Isn’t that the case?
Clenching his fists tightly in front of Sebastian, Kurt finally raised his gaze to reveal his reddened eyes.
“Actually, I-I haven’t given up. I want to study and make something of myself. By achieving success, I want to prove to them how wrong their decision back then was!” he declared in a choking tone.
Even though it had been five years since he was brought back, this was the first time Kurt revealed his true emotions to Sebastian.
Naturally, Sebastian was very satisfied with the response.
Reaching out his hand, he removed the hood that Kurt always liked to hide himself in, revealing a headful of soft black hair and a dashing face.
“Right. That should be the way. Therefore, for the next four years, you should work hard in school. I will support you in whatever you choose to study. Once you have graduated, I’ll send you back to your tribe if that’s what you want.”
“Mr. Hayes…” Kurt exclaimed at Sebastian’s last sentence. Finally, tears rolled down his cheeks when he couldn’t hold back his emotions any longer.
Sebastian rubbed his head gently before going out to see Sasha and Vivian.
Ten minutes later, Karl received a message.
Sebastian: With regards to Kurt, give him a free hand to choose whichever course he wants in school. Also, pay on his behalf if necessary.
Karl: Didn’t he already choose to major in architecture? Does he want to choose something else?
Sebastian: If he intends to return to Elysium, it would definitely not be enough. So, get the school to allow him to pick up a few more electives. Also, make sure it doesn’t affect his training.
Karl: Will do.
After pondering briefly, something occurred to Karl that caused him to fire off another message.
Karl: Mr. Hayes, did you tell him about the matter related to both his brothers?
Sebastian: Why would I do that? There’s enough hatred inside him already. Also, with regards to his mom, didn’t you say that she’s still being held captive in Elysium?
