The Million-Dollar Heart

Chapter 313

Dorian felt a jolt run through him, and he stared at her in surprise

Vivienne’s mother knew disguise techniques?

Why hadn’t he known about this?

Why had no one ever told him?

Vivienne looked at his expression and laughed in satisfaction. Tm just an amateur. During those years at Emerald Mountain, I studied many of my mother’s disguise techniques I did an alright job. If you need it, Mr. Hawthorn, I can help you

Donan remained silent. His eyes were fixed on Vivienne, trying to glean something from her expression, but he couldn’t find anything.

He chuckled “Why on earth would I need to disguise myself, Vivienne?”

She gave him a small smirk “No need to be nervous, Mr. Hawthorn I was only joking. My mother’s techniques aren’t that easy to master I’ve only scratched the surface

Dorian let out a sigh of relief.

Vivienne changed the topic. “The potion is safe with me, Mr. Hawthorn. You can focus on starting your company

“But the potion is in danger with you Donian quickly retorted

She gave him a sideways glance and spoke in an ice–cold tone. The ones in danger should be those who try to hurt the ones I care about.”

Before Dorian could respond, Vivienne turned and left

Donan watched her retreating figure with his brow furrowed Eventually, he turned and returned to his room.

Inside, Cordelia saw him enter and quickly stood up. “Well? Did you get it?*

Dorian shook his head solemnly “No”

Cordelia frowned. “She refused?”
