Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 1632

Could it be during the same time he was sent out from Elysium by Aunt?

The equally sharp-witted Kurt seemed to have thought of that. And instantly, a storm could be seen brewing in his pair of beautiful, narrow eyes.

“Did you remember something?”

In truth, Sebastian had been quietly observing him and had only curiously popped the question after not getting a response from the young boy.

“I-I… just thought about the timeline of everything that has happened. Brother Cal was only three when my aunt sent him away. At that time, Daphne was still the high priest of Elysium.”

 

“And?”

“And on the year I received the death sentence, Daphne was thrown into the River of Styx after her schemes got uncovered. Given this circumstance, how is it possible that she managed to give birth to a son five years older than me? There’s no way she could get married and start a family as the high priest of Elysium!”

 

Kurt’s face became more and more pale.

Exactly, I must be right. Based on the timeline I’ve calculated, Daphne must be carrying Jason while she was still holding onto the position of Elysium’s high priest since the latter is five years older than me. But why did no one from Elysium know about it? Moreover, how did she manage to replicate Brother Cal’s appearance and make Jason look like his duplicate?

The complicated relationships and time of events in the entire matter had only left Kurt’s head spinning.

Fortunately, there was still the existence Sebastian. With this man’s exceeding intelligence, one could call him the nemesis of those people.

“If I guessed correctly, she should’ve been colluding with Eddie long ago.”

“W-What? C-Colluding…?”

“Yeah. I’ve found out while I was in Jadeborough for the final battle with Eddie that he had two dens—one located below Aquene Temple, and the other was at the old Durant residence in Xenhall. Logically speaking, those definitely aren’t enough for someone like him who had planned such a huge scheme and stayed in the shadows for that long. So, he’d have to look for a wider location that he could have influence over. And the best option available for him was probably Elysium!”

After calming himself down, Sebastian tried to pull his thoughts and the leads he had together and analyzed the entire incident with Kurt again.

It was such a shocking revelation that Kurt’s jaws dropped to the ground, unable to utter a single word.

So, that means Eddie has been colluding with Daphne long ago because he has plans to usurp Elysium as one of his territories? That’s right, Jason! Since no one in Elysium knew that the two brothers were dead, if Jason returns with that face, he’ll be able to inherit the position of Elysium’s leader. Or perhaps, more accurately, the son of the leader!

Now that they had laid out all their available leads, Kurt could finally understand why Daphne had made sure to drag him down together after inciting Cynthia to plot a rebellion with her.

So she did that so that my foolish dad would lose two sons in one go. Now that I see, there is probably barely anyone in Elysium who can take charge by himself.
