Chapter 1607 Get Things Straight

“What is it?”

Vivian was unsure if he was only being gentle toward her because of his father’s instructions, but she
decided to voice her question anyway. “Well, you look really handsome, so… I just wanted to ask if your
appearance is natural…”

She kept her bright eyes fastened on him despite the undivided attention they were receiving from
everyone else.

After a brief pause, the prince, seemingly older than her, wore a half-smile and replied, “Yes, it is.
However, I have to say that I’m surprised, Ms. Hayes. Is it common for girls these days to express their
liking for guys in such a bold fashion?”

Vivian went scarlet instantly.



What the… Since when did I say I like him? I only asked because he looks way too similar to Brother
Cal!

“N-No! That’s not what I meant! I just… I just think you look really similar to a friend of mine, that’s all!”
she stammered nervously.



“Is that so?”

“Yeah, you look exactly like him. The only difference is that he’s Astorian, and you’re Epean,” Vivian
replied honestly.

She kept her eyes glued to his face the entire time as if she wanted to burn his image into her mind.



No matter how hard I try, I can never seem to get over Brother Cal… He truly is the one that got away…

Although Jason was a little annoyed by her incessant staring, he kept his cool and patiently denied ever
being acquainted with her.

“I assure you that my appearance is one-hundred-percent natural. If you don’t believe me, I can show
you pictures from my childhood. I have a photo album back at my place.”

The prince did not truly mean it, but Vivian readily took him up on his offer.

“Really?” she exclaimed, her eyes lighting up with joy.

The two of them left Exerine Palace half an hour later, and Jason personally drove her to the royal
residence.

Little did Vivian know that a cab pulled up outside the palace the moment she got into the car.

A young man wearing a hoodie then stepped out of the cab and soon made his way into the palace.

The reason Vivian was determined to see Jason’s photo album was because she wanted to know why
he looked exactly like Calvin.

Calvin was Sebastian’s most trusted assistant, and he died a tragic death from saving her father’s life.
Afterward, Sebastian and Sasha both endured a lot of hardship in order to protect Vivian and the country
as a whole.

Therefore, Vivian was no longer the ignorant and naïve little girl she used to be.

Although she was still kind and pure-hearted, she could tell right from wrong and had become a wiser
person overall.

That was especially the case after Ian got betrayed by his best friend half a year ago.



They soon arrived at the royal residence.

“Wait here; I’ll go get the photo album,” Jason said as he led her to the living room before heading
upstairs.

The residence was mostly empty as the royal family was attending the old duke’s birthday banquet at the
palace, so Vivian began exploring the living room around her.

“Huh? Who is this?” she mumbled to herself when she saw a picture of a young soldier in a photo frame.

The man was dressed in military uniform and held a saber in his hand. However, his facial features were
well-defined and heavily resembled that of the king’s.

Could this man also be the king’s son? Vivian thought to herself as she picked up the photo frame for a
closer look.

“That’s my older brother. That photo was taken when he joined the military,” Jason explained when he
came downstairs and saw what she was doing.

“Ah, I’m sorry! I just thought it was you in the photo, so I wanted to get a better look at it!” Vivian quickly
put the photo frame back where she found it.

“It’s all right. Here, I brought you the photo album. By the way, how old is your friend? Do you have a
picture of him that I can see? I’m really curious as to what he looks like! I’m surprised to hear that I have
a doppelganger,” he said while handing her the photo album.

Vivian lowered her head in response.

She did not have a picture of Calvin as she was only six when he died.

The only memento she had of him was an eagle-shaped cufflink that she wore as a pendant on her neck.



As she flipped through the photo album, surprise inundated her.

Oh, my gosh! Prince Jason really has had the same facial features since he was a child! These photos
taken on each of his birthdays are proof that he’s telling the truth. He looks even similar to Brother Cal at
the age of eighteen that it’s like they’re clones or something! How is this possible? Could it be that he is
actually Brother Cal?

Vivian felt her heart racing at the thought of that, but she was quick to dismiss that possibility as Jason
was only twenty years old.

If Brother Cal were still alive, he would have been in his thirties by now! It can’t be him then.

The whole event tied her up in knots. As she rapidly flipped through the photo album, she suddenly
spotted a photo of a black-haired Astorian woman.
