The Million-Dollar Heart by Rebecca Ryan

Chapter 1087

Vivienne gave a subtle nod, signaling him to wait, "Once the kids are out, we'll head off."

Connor flashed a slight grin, "No rush. You've just gotten back. Taking a day off before we head out wouldn't hurt."

Vivienne shook her head, "No need. Business is business. No one needs to wait on anyone."

A flicker of concern passed through Connor's eyes, his voice laced with a hint of flirtation, "All this back and forth, can your body handle it?" Leopold, "..."

Was he invisible to this man?

Or did he think Leopold was just part of the scenery?

Trying so blatantly to woo his Vivienne, was he out of his mind?

If Leopold didn't speak up soon, was he supposed to just stand by?

"Cough..."

"Juliette, Isaiah, come out here, we have guests!"

Leopold emphasized the word 'guests'.

It caught Connor's attention.

He shot a cold glare in return.

Pfft, a mere outsider, acting as if he was someone special to Vivienne?

Instead of calling the kids, they ended up drawing Yorick out.

Seeing Vivienne return, the old man's face lit up with joy.

Noticing Connor by her side, the twinkle in his eye was unmistakable, "Connor's here, up so early and haven't had breakfast yet, have you? Stay and eat with us." Connor nodded slightly towards the elder, "It wouldn't be proper for an outsider like me to impose for a meal."

Clearly, that comment was meant for Leopold.

But the old man just waved it off, "Outsider? You're practically family here. What's the harm in sharing a meal? Consider it keeping Vivienne company." Leopold was taken aback.
