The Million-Dollar Heart by Rebecca Ryan

Chapter 1127

If Connor wasn't Abigail's last resort, it meant there was someone they had overlooked.

Vivienne's expression was grave. Connor, lying on the ground, had started to cough up blood. Despite this, Vivienne still administered an antidote to him. "What's this for?" Percival was surprised to see Vivienne giving Connor an antidote.

After feeding Connor the medicine, Vivienne dropped him on the ground like trash, "He might still be of use."

They hadn't fully identified 'him' yet, so they couldn't just kill him off.

Vivienne handed Connor over to the belatedly arriving Draven, "Lock him up in the lab, and no one sees him without my say-so."

"Right away, boss." Draven dragged the man away, disappearing into the building's upper levels.

Vivienne and Percival searched the abandoned building for a while but found nothing relevant. Vivienne paused at the door of the room that had trapped her.

Before she left, the sculptures were intact, but now, all she saw were shattered stones.

Just as Vivienne was about to turn away, something in the darkness caught her eye, gleaming momentarily. She caught sight of it and bent down among the rubble to find a chip precisely.

The emblem on the chip unconsciously reminded Vivienne of the lab she saw in Luck Village. Could there be a connection?

"Vivienne, I didn't find any clues on my end. Shall we leave?" Percival approached, noticing the item in Vivienne's hand, "What's that?"

Vivienne handed the chip to Percival, "Let's go. There's nothing left here. This is all we need."

Percival raised an eyebrow, and they both headed back to the Perez family home.

Juliette and her brother were the first to wake up in the morning. The first thing Juliette did upon opening her eyes was to look for their mom. She hesitated at Vivienne's bedroom door, her little hand raised then dropped in indecision.
