The Million-Dollar Heart

Chapter 321

Ryan’s face suddenly fell. He might have thought his son was a good–for–nothing, but that didn’t give anyone else the right to criticize him, especially an outsider like

Vivienne

He said. ‘Dad, I’ve always respected your wishes, but today Vivienne has crossed a linel Shouldn’t you make a stand?”

“Yeah!” Cathy chimed in defiantly. “She’s been targeting us this entire time I don’t know if it’s because she’s jealous or if someone’s been pulling her strings!”

Pulling her strings”

That was a clear jab at Percival

Vivienne was the daughter–in–law of Richard’s third son, namely Percival’s father, so naturally, she would side with Percival

Her current feud with Paul was clearly a fallout between Richard’s third son and first son

“Enough” Richard was so angry that his voice was shaking. He was still recovering from his illness and didn’t have the strength to physically intervene Ryan, don’t thank / don’t know about your targeting of Percival and Vivienne! The last time I assigned you as a security guard, it was to teach you a lesson

Richard shook his head in disappointment And what did you learn? Nothing! You’re even dragging your own son into your schemes against Vivienne?”

“Dad, Ryan didn’t mean any harm! He just wants what’s best for the Ellington family Cathy tried to defend her husband but the old man was done listening

“I might be old, but I’m not blind or deaf I’ve turned a blind eye to your past actions, but now that you ve dared to scheme against Vivienne, don’t blame me for being

ruthless!

Richard spoke, then turned to his butler “From today on Ryan’s family is not allowed to stay in the mansion Without my permission, they are not allowed to return. This is your responsibility so make sure it’s done!”
