The Million-Dollar Heart

Chapter 644

Vivienne rolled her eyes at the scene before her and silently slipped out of the room.

Anna stood at the doorway, gripping Mara, who was feigning unconsciousness.

"Ms. Vivienne, what should we do with her?"

"Forget her," Vivienne waved dismissively. "Just feed this to Aaron when he wakes up."

Anna nodded in understanding. "Got it."

As Vivienne left, she couldn't help but give Mara a wry smile.

Meanwhile, Kenneth was floundering in the bedroom, shouting, "Isn't anyone coming to save me? Hello? Anybody?!"

Anna glanced indifferently at Kenneth, then descended the stairs, dragging the "passed out" Mara behind her.

Mara bit back the pain, seething with resentment. Couldn't this woman carry her down the stairs properly instead of dragging her like some rag doll?

Her legs were probably covered in bruises!

And why on earth was Kenneth here?

Mara had planned to trap Aaron and Vivienne together and then bring Percival over to witness. Even if nothing happened, the misunderstanding would be enough.

Without Percival, and with a rift between her and Aaron, her mission would be complete.

But Kenneth ended up being the one to show up, ruining everything!
