The Million-Dollar Heart by Rebecca Ryan

Chapter 8

At the entrance of the mall.

Seeing Vivienne being stubborn, Arabella angrily walked off with the two girls next to her. She definitely didn’t want to get in trouble because of Vivienne.

After Vivienne gave the little girl an injection, her breathing gradually became steady. Just then, the ambulance arrived at the scene. She removed the silver needles from the girl’s body and placed them in a needle box. She then reassured the middle–aged woman, “She’s out of danger for now, but she still needs to be taken to the hospital for further treatment.”

After saying that, Vivienne stood up to leave.

“I’m from the Hawthorn family.” She dropped this line before she turned and left.

When Percival and his group arrived, they just caught a glimpse of Vivienne’s retreating figure. This time, he was in a wheelchair, being pushed by Thomas. Percival watched Vivienne’s back, feeling a sense of familiarity. Before he could think more about it, Leopold had already reached Isolde and asked, “Isolde, how are you doing?”

Isolde gave him a weak smile. “Leopold, I’m fine. A lady just saved me. She was amazing.”

Isolde was still semi–conscious when Vivienne first arrived.

“A lady?” Leopold was a bit puzzled.

“Yes, a beautiful lady. She gave me a pill and I felt better. And…” Isolde’s voice grew excited. “She used a few needles on me. It was a bit painful but I felt so much better.”

Leopold was taken aback, then laughed, “Well, she can’t be better than Mystic Mistress.” In his heart, Mystic Mistress was unrivaled.

Percival glanced back at the figure disappearing into the distance, deep in thought.

“I’m sorry. I got you worried.” Seeing Percival’s silence, Isolde thought he was angry and cautiously apologized.
