Susan breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that. Since he'll send me back, I have nothing to worry about.
She didn't ask anything further after that. She also didn't leave Vivian and the others a message because she thought she would be home right after her visit to the museum.
However, Vivian and the others were looking for her at noon that day because Susan didn't tell them where she went.
"This is weird. Where is Aunt Susan? Where did she go? Why isn't she here for lunch?”
Kurt was quite well-informed, so he answered, "I think someone from the embassy came to look for her.”
The embassy? Everyone was stunned upon hearing that. Ian was quite startled as well, and he looked at Kurt with a frown.
"What's with the embassy? Why did they look for her?" Vivian asked.
Vivian was worried about Susan. After all, it was rare to hear about an embassy looking for a student like them.
At the same time, Sigrun pricked up her ears.
"I think they've found out about her identity. Her grandpa, Louis Limmer, came here to study before. Perhaps, an old acquaintance wants to meet her,” Kurt explained casually.
Goodness! As soon as those words were spoken, all sorts of facial expressions were seen in the dining room.
Vivian looked surprised. Who would've thought Aunt Susan would have an acquaintance here? This is good news!
Indeed, she was genuinely happy for Susan.
Sigrun's face, on the other hand, fell instantly. She was shocked and angry at the same time. Within a few seconds, her eyes were filled with jealousy.
Since she was from a prominent family, she had always been proud of her social status.
As for Susan, her status of being a descendant of the Limmer family had never meant anything. Hence, Sigrun was surprised by the fact that Susan would be treated with respect in a foreign land.
Judging by what happened, Susan seemed to have surpassed her in terms of social status.
Sigrun was overwhelmed by jealousy.
After lunch, everyone went to rest. When Kurt saw Ian walking up the stairs, he approached Ian and asked, "Go fetch her later, okay?”
"O-Oh... Okay." Surprisingly, Ian agreed.
Upon hearing that, Kurt smiled and passed him his car keys.
