The Million-Dollar Heart

Chapter 641

Percival tightened his embrace, resting his forehead just above Vivienne's brows, whispering tenderly, "Looking at my Vivienne." My Vivienne.

Few words in the world could send Vivienne's heart fluttering quite like those.

She felt as if she had plunged into a pool of spring water, her entire being drenched in its soothing embrace.

Their gazes locked, neither willing to take a step closer.

In their eyes, there was only each other, each deeply etching the other's features into their memory.

They tugged at each other, eyes speaking volumes.

The lab door swung open, and Karen marched in, dragging Rex by the ear, the awkwardness in the room thick enough to cut with a knife.

Karen was the first to snap out of it. "Carry on, lovebirds. I've got a bone to pick with this good-for-nothing apprentice!"

Vivienne watched as Karen pulled Rex aside and, with a swift kick, sent him sprawling.

Meanwhile, she and Percival were still wrapped up in each other, fingers interlocked.

"Boss, your daughter's over here making goo-goo eyes, and you're not saying a peep? She's underage and being seduced by an older man-aren't you gonna do something about it?" Rex's outburst was swiftly silenced by Karen's expert move.

"If you don't spill the beans on all those toxins you've been cooking up over the years, you might as well forget about talking ever again."

Karen had zero tolerance for her underlings causing trouble.

If she had known Rex was actually Brody, she would have cut him down long ago!

Vivienne pursed her lips, conceding that when it came to inner strength, her mom was unbeatable.

"Old man, gonna let go, or do you want to play a live show?" Vivienne teased, pulling away with a mischievous wink.
