The Million-Dollar Heart by Rebecca Ryan

Chapter 108

In the living room.

Percival was chilling on the sofa, waiting for her, while Doreen and Bertha kept him company After seeing Vivienne descend the stairs, he stood up to greet her. “All done?”

“Yep.” Vivienne nodded as she made her way down the stairs. She turned to Doreen and Bertha. “Starting tomorrow, I won’t be treating Faye anymore. I’ve already told her about the

medicine.”

Doreen immediately showed her gratitude and saw Vivienne and Percival out, finally dropping a bombshell. “The Hawthorn family just declared bankruptcy.”

Vivienne was already in the loop; the news broke out at noon today. It was a complete smear on the Hawthorn family’s reputation.

The tide of public opinion turned. The netizens who previously helped Arabella attack her and Percival had now started to attack Arabella, and Beatrice. The effect was significant.

Major banks and raw material suppliers who collaborated with the Hawthorn family and distributors who had already paid the deposit for the perfume, fearing they wouldn’t get their money, all flocked to the hospital and pressed the Hawthorn family for repayment.

This time, Beatrice couldn’t hold on. She passed out for real.

The Hawthorn family eventually declared bankruptcy.

Vivienne wasn’t surprised. This was the ending Vivienne had planned for them.

This time, only two families took action against the Hawthorn family. If every family pitched in, the Hawthorn family would probably be destroyed without a trace.

She took Dorian and Iris’ feelings into consideration, so she didn’t go all in.

Doreen told Vivienne. “This incident was mainly because I wasn’t careful enough and got tricked by Arabella. I also dragged you in. Don’t worry, the Baker family will definitely hold her legally responsible.”

The Baker family essentially caused this incident, but, in the end, it was Vivienne who cleaned up the mess, so Doreen felt quite ashamed.

Without saying much, Vivienne just politely said her goodbyes and left with Percival
