The Million-Dollar Heart by Rebecca Ryan

Chapter 1133

Leopold was bracing himself to answer the call when, at the very last second, the phone call ended. Instinctively, he let out a sigh of relief, exactly as he wished. But before his smile could even begin to form, Griffin's phone started ringing.

"Huh? Vivienne's calling me." Griffin said, about to answer the call before Leopold could even attempt to stop her, Vivienne's voice was already coming through the phone. "Leopold, why didn't you answer the phone? Are you not at home?"

Leopold guiltily glanced at Griffin, who quickly covered for him, "Oh, he's here. Did you call him just now? He didn't manage to pick up in time."

"Oh? I thought he was avoiding my calls!" Vivienne knew Leopold all too well.

"Swear to God, Vivienne, why wouldn't I want to answer your call? I was just about to call you back when you called her. Just missed it, that's all." Worried Vivienne would blame Leopold, he launched into a rap, talking so fast that even Griffin was taken aback.

Vivienne, not wanting to delve deeper, glanced at the overly excited Juliette and felt a headache coming on, "How do you usually get them to sleep?" "What?" Leopold was baffled.

"I mean these two kids, Juliette has been playing for hours and still doesn't seem tired."

Leopold, "..."

Vivienne, do you hear what you're saying?

You're their mom!

And you're asking me, the godfather, how I put them to sleep?

Leopold's mouth twitched in bewilderment, "I usually just play with them until they're tired and fall asleep."

Vivienne, "..."
