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!”

“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

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!”
