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.

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

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