The Million-Dollar Heart by Rebecca Ryan

Chapter 104

Percival shot a glance at the reporter speaking to him..

The reporter was young. He was sporting a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and the moment

his

gaze met Percival’s, he felt a chill run down his spine, making him step back instinctively. But when he saw Arabella’s tear-streaked face and Michael writhing in pain on the ground, his sense of “justice” overpowered him. “What are you looking at? Did I say something
