The Million-Dollar Heart by Rebecca Ryan

Chapter 190

Leopold, with a team at his disposal and the full cooperation of Jaylan, swiftly located the bomb.

Felix had planted it underground.

Moreover, not too far from the bomb was a hidden tunnel. If things took a turn for the worse, Felix could

escape through the tunnel while activating the

bomb.

It was clear that this was not a last–minute plan Felix must have had the tunnel dug out a long time

ago.

When Felix saw the bomb being discovered, he was already calm

From the moment this plan started, he anticipated all kinds of unexpected situations. His failure was

also within his calculations.

What he did not account for was how powerful Vivienne was

Not only was she Shadow Wolf and a fighting master of high caliber, but her bomb–dismantling skills

were top–notch too

Of course, another thing he did not foresee was that the supposed good–for–nothing heir of the

Ellington family was far from being a waste

Once the bomb was defused, Vivienne and Percival set Felix free

Felix glanced at them as his eyes closed resignedly I lost. If you want to kill me, just do it”

His failure was his own doing. Even if Vivienne and Percival did not kill him, his organization would.

The task given to him by the organization was to get the reagent.

The reagent he had injected his subordinates with was indeed the latest innovation of the organization,

but it was far from perfect.

It had many drawbacks. For example, those subordinates would soon die in a violent explosion.

But after Vivienne breached his firewall last time, a knot formed in his heart. He wanted to play this

game to prove the strength of his hacking skills.

Alas, he lost

Vivienne took out a tissue and wiped her hand that had touched Felix. A cold glimmer filled her eyes. “I

told you that death is not the outcome you will get. 1 will make you wish you were dead.”

She was about to make her move with a silver needle in hand when Percival stepped in front of her. He

caressed her head gently and said in a doting tone. “Let me handle this Don’t dirty your hands.”

Vivienne paused, and for the first time, someone was standing in her way, protecting something pure

inside her.

She lifted her head and showed a smile as warm as a spring breeze. “Alright”

Percival lifted his hand, and soon a man came up to him. “Break his arms and legs, feed him the drug,

and dump him in the potter’s field.”

Vivienne looked a bit surprised

After seeing her look, Percival smiled and asked. Too lenient a punishment?”

“initially thought of throwing him into the wolf den Vivienne half–closed her eyes, her smile bright yet

chilling.

Percival’s cold lips curled up in a smile. His voice was melodious and pleasing to the ear “Don’t spoil

the wolves‘ stomachs.”

Viviennes smile grew even brighter “Yes, your punishment is better than feeding him to the wolves”

Their conversation was casual, but Felix shuddered at their words “Viviennel Just shoot mel

Even with his strong mental fortitude, after being mutilated and left in the potter’s field, he would surely

break down.

Vivienne lifted her eyes. She placed her hands in her pockets and slowly approached him, still showing

a chilling smile. “Death is never the worst punishment”

With that Vivienne turned around to feed an unconscious and injured Matthew a pill then gave out an

order to Jerry and the others. Take him to the hospital

She had checked, and the bullet hadn’t pierced Matthew’s heari

Her pill could save his life, and the hospital just needed to remove the bullet

Percival didn’t even spare Felix a glance He turned around, took Vivienne’s hand, and left with her

under the moonlight with everyone watching.

The only sounds left were Felur’s hord screams.

Those who were watching Vivienne and Percival leave, like Jerry and the others, felt like they were

watching a beautiful painting. The two figures in the lead were ethereal They were almost inhuman

After a while. Dawson was the first to snap back to reality Damn! The Mystic Mistress and her

| gone!”

The rest quickly snapped out of their daze and chased after them

After a few steps. Dawson remembered Viviennes order and had Leopold’s me itake Matthen to the

hospital, then he too chased after them.

The men were unsure why they were being ordered around. But it was clear these people were with

their co

Matthew lying on the ground was seriously injured so they lifted him and left

Leopold also shook himself out of his daze quickly gave a lew orders and hurried off

But by the time they got to their cars, Vivienne and Percival had already driven aff

Leopold

Chapter 190

They quickly got into their cars and followed.

Meanwhile, Dorian and Cordelia were still at the original place, looking confused.

What happened?

Why did their daughter leave?

Just as Dorian was about to call Vivienne, her call came in. “Mr. Hawthorn, I apologize, but I need to go

save Isolde. You guys head home first; I’ll be back once I’m done”

With that, she hung up the phone

He sighed helplessly as he looked at the disconnected call, frowning as he realized he didn’t have the

chance to say a word.

“Let’s go Vivienne still has to go save Isolde” He said to Cordelia.

Cordelia said worriedly. “She’s going? It’s so dangerous, why didn’t you try to dissuade her?”

Dorian gave a bitter smile “Who can stop her? We’ve underestimated Vivienne She’s much stronger

than we could ever imagine”

She was just like Evelyn.

Cordelia sighed, said nothing more, and left with Dorian.

On the road, Percival drove at top speed. His and Vivienne’s expressions became very serious

Once the car started Vivienne called Draven. “How are things on your end? Have you rescued Isolde?”

“We saved her!” Draven responded. ‘It seemed like those guys anticipated that you would prioritize

saving the students of Class Eighteen There were only a few guards at Miss Isoldes side. Eric and I

took care of them But Miss Isolde was a bit shaken up. We’re planning to take her back to Mrs.

Cecilia’s mansion

Vivienne felt her tension ease a little. “Okay, I got it.”

Percival finally slowed down

After ending the call, Vivienne turned to Percival “Isolde is shocked. Is there still a bakery open at this

hour?”

She did owe Isolde this time.

But if she had to choose again, she would still save the students of Class Eighteen first.

She could not trade over forty lives for one

TII have the chef bake one right now

With that, Percival dialed a number

They headed towards Cecilia’s mansion.

The car behind them followed at a leisurely pace.

Half an hour later, the car stopped at the mansion’s entrance.

Percival and Vivienne got out of the car, immediately noticing the three cars that had followed them.

Percival frowned and turned to Vivienne “Are they here for you?”

He remembered that back at the warehouse, those guys seemed to be calling Vivienne the Mystic

Mistress.

Vivienne gave him a mischievous smile. “I think they re here for you”

Percival was stunned. For me?”

Vivienne casually put her arm around his shoulder, giving off a buddy–buddy vibe. They’re my

disciples. They’re here to force you to cancel the engagement

Percival fell silent

So, these eight were planning to steal his bride on their first meeting?

Percival turned his head, glanced at them and deliberately held Vivienne’s hand, striding towards the

mansion.

The guys behind them looked extremely displeased

Dawson stared at their intertwined hands. He pointed at them as his nose almost went crooked in

anger. That bastard! What is he doing? Who gave him, the right to hold the Mystic Mistress’s hand?

Damn I chop his hand off?”

“He’s doomed The others squinted their eyes as they exuded a dangerous aur

Leopold, who had followed them, glanced at them but didn’t say anything He silently followed them

inside.

However, after only a few steps, he was yanked back by the collar by Jerry Where do you think you’re

going?

“Hey, hey! Jerry, what are you doing? We’re civilized people, so no violence, please Leopold struggled

to continue walking inakie.

By now, if he didnt understand what was happening he might as well be called a fool.

All along. Mystic Mistress had been by his side, and he hadn’t noticed at all

if it weren’t for the eight senior disciples learning about the Mystic Mistress’s engagement and coming

to Havenwood to confront the bastard, he might still be oblinous

And the man he had been swearing to castrate was

Just thinking about it gave him a headache.
