Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 1692

Chapter 1692 

Eventually, Kurt drove to the airport as fast as he could, but it was too late.

Vivian had already boarded the flight by the time he got there, and he could only watch as the plane flew past his head.

Zoom! The deafening sound of the plane's engine caused him to stop in his tracks.

For what seemed like forever, he simply stood there looking up at the sky with a blank look on his face.I didn’t want this to happen, but I can't have her risking her life with me in that d*mned place.

Xayden told me that she had already been infected by that nasty stuff! I can't imagine how things would be if he didn't show up! The experiment from last night has shown me that there isn't a single healthy individual in the entire royal family.

They've all become hosts to the parasites, and the tribe will most likely be next.

There's no way Vivian will be safe if she stays there! Kurt's slender fingers trembled by his sides as his handsome face turned terrifyingly pale.

Even so, he simply waited until the plane was out of sight before retracting his gaze and walking back like a lifeless puppet.

Something big happened in Elysium on the night that Vivian had left.

After checking the date of Kurt's birthday, the high priest claimed it wasn't a suitable day for a celebration.

Some people speculated that it was because a huge snowstorm would come in a few days.

According to their superstitions, it was incredibly inauspicious to have the future successor chosen on a snowy day.

As such, the villagers got busy with the preparations to bring Kurt's birthday celebration forward.

The office had to take over the orders signed with the overseas merchants after Vivian left, so Riley had come over in person.

"Ms.Cooper? I can't believe they had you come all the way here in this bad weather! Why didn't they send a guy over instead?" the staff on duty exclaimed when he saw that they had sent a fragile- looking woman over.

Riley replied with a smile, "Everyone's busy now that it's the end of the year.Since I happened to be free at the time, they decided to send me instead.I've been here before, so it's fine.Besides, Xayden is here!"

Xayden was rummaging through his moisturizing cream when he heard that.He then looked up at Riley and flashed her an awkward smile in response.

The two of them went to inspect the goods that day.

Since Riley's status wasn't as high as Vivian's, she didn't have to go see the king in the palace.

All she had to do was keep an eye on the goods.
