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.”

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!”
