The Million-Dollar Heart
Chapter 635
Vivienne offered a perfunctory smile, the old grudges still simmering beneath the surface.
"We've got company at the moment. My father will join us shortly. Please, make yourselves at home. Dinner will be served soon," Dracon explained before bustling off. Vivienne took a sip of her water. "Is this their idea of a power play?"
Karen shrugged it off. "If Yorick wanted to put me in my place, he'd use something more sophisticated than this."
It was clear, though, that Dracon intended to make this power move personally.
Vivienne chuckled, choosing to remain silent.
An hour passed, with neither Vivienne nor Karen receiving any attention. Dracon was off somewhere, busy, and Yorick had not emerged from his study.
Only when the servants had finished setting the table and called everyone for dinner did Yorick finally make an appearance.
Dracon hurried over to his side, along with a woman, both offering their support as Yorick descended the stairs.
"Lark, when did you arrive?" Yorick seemed genuinely surprised to see Karen.
With a slight curl of her lips, Karen's eyes flickered towards Dracon. "Been here a while. Mr. Linklater insisted we shouldn't disturb you, so I did not." Vivienne's gaze landed on the woman by Yorick's side, her smile laden with meaning.
Yorick glanced at Dracon, his voice tinged with reprimand. "Dracon, didn't I say to send Lark and Vivienne to my study when they arrived?"
Dracon looked down sheepishly. "Sorry, Dad, I was too busy. It slipped my mind."
Vivienne smirked, "Wasn't Mr. Linklater just overseeing the kitchen the whole time? Playing supervisor?"
Dracon managed an awkward laugh. Vivienne was clearly hinting that he had done it on purpose.
