The Million-Dollar Heart by Rebecca Ryan

Chapter 67

While Percival and Vivienne were testing each other, the car pulled into Tranquil Estates.

When Vivienne got them home, Richard and Isolde Ellington had already arrived, along with Leopold Sterling.

Vivienne leered at Leopold, then turned to Percival, “You only gave living expenses for four. Why there are five people now?”

Before Percival could answer, Leopold chuckled and said, “Hey, don’t be so stingy with me, I’m just here for dinner. Plus I brought a gift. The money I spent on it should cover your family’s meal.”

Feels like you’re about to get some bad luck unless you eat some garlic.” Vivienne said.

“You also know how to tell one’s fortune?” Leopold asked.

Vivienne nodded seriously, “I might not have mastered everything my teacher taught me, but

yes.

“Haha!” Leopold took a sip from his glass and laughed, “You’re hilarious. I never knew you were such a joker…”

“Bam!”

His glass shattered in his hand before he could finish his sentence.

Leopold’s eyes widened, “Wow, it was completely out of the blue.”

Everyone else in the room was also taken aback and stared at Leopold.

“Oh my, Vivienne, you’re amazing. You knew one’s luck just from someone’s face!” Richard stood up in excitement, looking at the broken glass on the floor, “Leopold, you’d better do as Ms. Hawthorn says!”

The elder man Richard was the only one in the room who believed in fortune-telling.
