The Million-Dollar Heart

Chapter 523

The Boyd family was in complete disarray after Vivienne walked out the door.

Wendy collapsed in a faint, while Teresa, Nancy, and their daughters, were terrified, at a loss for what to do next.

The servants reacted first, calling the doctor and fetching clothes for the family.

Theodore and Hayden were livid with rage when they returned and saw the chaos.

Nobody had expected Vivienne, the girl from the countryside, to be so ruthless - not only had she set a pack of wolves on them, but she had also chopped off Wendy's hand. How on earth did she manage to get a wolf?

And how did she have the power to control the wolves?

Wendy was right; Vivienne was dabbling in dark arts!

By the time Theodore and the others were dressed, the doctor had finished treating Wendy.

Theodore rushed to meet the doctor.

"Dr. Marcus, how's my mom doing?" Theodore asked.

Dr. Marcus was the Boyd family's private physician. Given the circumstances, they could not exactly broadcast their problems, so they called him.

"Madam Wendy received timely care; her life is not in danger. She just needs plenty of rest to recover," Dr. Marcus replied.

"And her hand... Is there any chance it can be saved?" Theodore pressed.
