The Million-Dollar Heart by Rebecca Ryan

Chapter 230

Tears kept streaming down Cordelia’s face. “Dorian, we can never repay Vivienne”

Dorian gently patted her head and whispered. “Then let’s just love her more in the future. I will work hard to build up my career so we can move to Rivenwood, where we can take care of her.”
