Chapter 1968

That woman... actually dominated the media industry in three years. In addition to setting up a

production company while still studying, she also directed two movies where she won awards

for her prop and costume designs.

That, in turn, meant that her career would skyrocket.

Unfortunately, it was obvious that Kurt didn't belong there. It was a city of architectural marvels,

after all, so the local authorities wouldn’t further develop the place or tear any buildings down.

That meant that as a recently graduated architect, Kurt had no way of building his career there.

The truth was that he graduated ages ago. When he was sixteen, he was sent to study there.

Vivian, however, was still at the Royal Academy. He stayed behind for a year just to be with her,

and now countless top construction companies were trying to recruit him.

If he were to leave and pursue his dreams, the love of his life would have to make a tough

choice.

"It's fine. You should just go ahead. I will deal with the matter;' said Kurt to offer some comfort

and to send them off.

Ian couldn't come up with a solution, so he had no choice but to grab his luggage and left the

place with Susan. Still, he called his baby sister when he

reached the airport.

"Hi, Ian."

"Hey, so I'm leaving with Susan now, and you and Kurt will be alone here, stop being

unreasonable, okay? He already pushed his career back by a year for you, so try to see things

from his point of view, okay?"

Ian was trying to teach his baby sister a lesson at the time.

Vivian was already in a foul mood because she just had an argument. Hearing what her brother

said on the other end of the line made her scowl even more.

"I never asked him to wait."

"Vivi!" said Ian sternly. He looked a little angry when he heard what Vivian said. "Don't be mean. Just talk nicely to

him and don't assume you can get away with everything just because he loves you. Your career is important, but so

is his.”

Ian was a little harsh when he scolded her because he wanted to her to wake up and see the bigger picture.

Kurt had always been the one making sacrifices for the relationship. While it was true that Vivian only attended that

particular school for Kurt's sake, it was undeniable that his entire life had always circled around her.

He went to Yartran when he was ten and returned to SteelFort when he was twelve.

After that, he stayed in Clearwater for four years just to secretly protect her. He had been traveling back and forth

between Yartran and Clearwater just to keep her safe.

He did all that for her from behind the scene. Even now, if Vivian had asked Kurt not to leave, Ian was certain that

Kurt would stay.

Unfortunately, that would mean that Vivian would never learn just how talented Kurt was.

Ian hung up the phone after that.

Susan asked, "What did Vivian say? Will she talk to Kurt about this?"

Ian grumbled, "I don't know. That idiot has spoiled her for too many years, and it seems she has turned selfish."

He was still a little frustrated with his baby sister at the time.

Susan saw how angry he was, so she quickly cooed, "Don't be so harsh on her. She is simply reluctant to let go of

her career. It's reasonable, isn't it? She's doing great, so it's only natural that she'd struggle with that decision."

"Then they can just get into a long-distance relationship. It's been years, so it's not as though they are still in the

honeymoon period. Shouldn't they be sick of each other's faces, anyway?"

Susan was a little surprised. She couldn't believe that Ian got even more upset and said something like that.

She stopped short and turned to look at him. At that moment, she was so tempted to demand an explanation of

what they were doing. What does that mean? He's heading to Southeast Astoria, and I am tagging along. Is this too

much? Is he sick of my face?

She looked away while dragging their luggage along. The two of them didn't say another word even after they

boarded the plane.

At the apartment...

Kurt treated his injuries, then went to the supermarket to buy some groceries.

That was his routine for the past year. He would design wallpapers now and then, but most of his time was spent

taking care of Vivian. Hence, cooking every meal became an essential part of his life.

He came home with the groceries and cooked everything, but Vivian was still nowhere to be seen.

What's going on? Could it be... She's still mad at me?

Kurt got a little worried. He put everything aside, walked out of the kitchen, and grabbed his phone to make the call.

"Hello? Vivi?"

"What?"

As suspected, the woman from the other side of the line sounded annoyed, and her tone carried

a hint of sorrow.

Kurt heard the pain in her voice, so he quickly asked, "Where are you? Why aren't you home

yet? I cooked for you."

Vivian replied, "I'm not hungry. Just eat without me."

She replied in a depressed tone and was going to hang up right away.

That scared Kurt out of his mind.

"Listen to me, Vivi. What happened last night is my fault, and I'm sorry, so please don't be mad

anymore.

I won't leave. I'll stay right here with you, and you don't need to worry about anything."

"Kurt... Maybe we should stay apart for now. My brother is right. I have been too selfish. You

should go to Gronga and get your career going. After that...” Beep! Beep!

The line went dead all of a sudden.

All Vivian heard was her phone humming, so she checked her phone and was stunned for quite

some time.

Why did he hang up? Did I say something bad again?

Vivian became even more upset. It got to the point where she even got disinterested in the

video she was editing.

One of her colleagues saw what was up with her and asked, "What's wrong? Did you get into

another fight with your boyfriend?"
