Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover

Chapter 1471 Locking Horns

“Probably a lapdog to her family? Haha…” All the students in the class burst out laughing upon seeing that.

As Vivian had been living abroad all this while, she found it hard to comprehend the language spoken locally. Hence,

she could not understand their conversations, let alone deciphered what they were laughing at.

She stood there with a blank face until Kurt, whom she was looking for went to her. He stretched out his arms and

covered both her ears with his hands.

“Kurt?”

“Let’s go,” he said indifferently.

After leaving the place, he put down his hands and habitually placed them in his pockets.

Seeing so, Vivian grabbed his arms and pulled them out of his pockets. Then, she gently held his with her delicate

hands.

The boy was rendered speechless.

“Kurt, Uncle Solomon is here. Let’s head out to dine with him. He will help me handle the matter thereafter,” said

Vivian.

“Sure.” Kurt did not refuse her. Instead, he allowed her to lead the way, holding his hands.

When they saw Solomon, he was in his car. Upon seeing the two young individuals, Solomon got out and opened the

door to the back seat for them.

“Vivi, is this your little friend?” As the only adult present, Solomon posted a casual question with a smile as soon as

he saw her.

Delighted, Vivian did not hesitate to make the introduction. “Yes, Uncle Solomon. This is Kurt, especially handpicked

by Great-grandpa. He’s really intelligent. In a recent exam, he passed with flying colors and came out first in his

grade.”

He’s that good, huh?

Solomon could not help but give the boy a once-over.

He realized that Kurt had been standing there quietly since moments ago. When their gazes met, the boy looked

away and hung his head low.

He seems like a fine boy, though quite bashful and shy.

Solomon was quite relieved to see Vivian having a seemingly simple-minded and innocent friend. He never wanted

her to hang around people with evil intentions. After all, Vivian grew up as everyone’s favorite, who was spoiled

rotten by the entire family. Compared to Ichika, Vivian was even more naive and pure-hearted.

Subsequently, Solomon took the two children out for a meal.

As they were eating, Solomon noticed that Kurt had very good table manners and etiquettes unlike Vivian, who

would gobble up her food.

Obediently, Kurt held the cutlery in style and chewed his food with his mouth closed. He seemed like a wonderful

child.

Suddenly, Solomon’s phone rang.

“Hey Solomon, the person in charge from the school has contacted me a while ago. He said that we’re allowed to

go see your niece’s work. Head over here soon, will you?”

“All right.” Solomon’s heart skipped a beat when he heard the news.

Vivian asked, “Is it sorted, Uncle Solomon?”

“Yup. Let’s finish up our lunch, and I’ll bring you to your teacher,” he replied.

Vivian was hesitant.

“She has a study session later, so she can’t get a leave,” the boy spoke in a nonchalant tone all of a sudden.

He did it so naturally that it startled Solomon, who turned and cast a gaze on him.

It’s my first time hearing him speak.

In the end, Solomon let it be. After taking the two kids back to school for their self-study session, he proceeded to

the office building once again.

“Mr. George, this is the work submitted by your niece. Upon investigating, we regret to inform you that we’ve made

a mistake. This isn’t actually her work.”

Surprised, he did not expect the person in charge to showcase Vivian’s work, let alone apologized for their fault.

Instantly, Solomon was enraged.

“So? That’s it? You’re just going to conclude this issue with a mere sentence? Did you know that my niece was

deeply hurt by this incident? I purposely made a trip here to find out what was going on. Had I not done that, would

my niece be expelled for no apparent reason?” he bombarded them with a series of questions furiously.

Immediately, the person in charge’s face turned scarlet.

“I’m terribly sorry, Mr. George. I didn’t know about this beforehand. We’ve just received an anonymous report,

alleging that someone has tampered with the work. That’s how we discovered the truth. Mr. George, please let us

know how we can compensate you. We promise to do our best to satisfy your request.”

“An anonymous report? By whom?” Upon hearing a key phrase, Solomon pursued further.

However, the person in charge did not explain clearly. He only mentioned that someone called up the school to

expose the matter.

Additionally, he was informed that the rightful owner of the work was Vivian’s wealthy classmate. It was highly likely

for that classmate to intentionally get someone to swap the work.

“Mr. George, Helena was always ranked first in class before Vivian’s arrival. Now that she’s no longer in the

limelight, she might have responded to the situation negatively. Mr. George, it’s one of those pranks that the

children pull on others. I’ll definitely educate Helena on this. However, I don’t recommend you take any action

against her.”

“Why not?”

“This is because her father belongs to the royal family. If this matter gets out of hand, I’m afraid that your niece

may suffer in school. Although I’m aware of Vivian’s powerful background, she’s now in Yartran. What do you

think?” the person in charge reminded Solomon about the reality.
