Vivienne looked at her with a bemused expression that could only be described as watching a simpleton's antics. "After all the times you've slipped through my fingers, did you really think I wouldn't take precautions? If I let you escape again, where would that leave my reputation as a genius?"

Samantha was at a loss for words.

Rising to her feet, Vivienne approached Samantha with a commanding presence. "It seems you have no questions for me, and you're not in the mood to answer mine either. So, let's go!" Samantha's gaze inadvertently drifted towards the window. Silence reigned outside, not a soul in sight.

No one was coming to her rescue.

It dawned on her that this time, she couldn't avoid her fate.

A devilish grin spread across Samantha's face. "I have to admit, you're impressive. But I haven't lived these ninety years for nothing. You aren't the only one who knows how to use poison..."

As she attempted to channel her inner energy, her expression suddenly froze.

What was happening?

Why couldn't she harness her inner energy?

Vivienne's lips curled into a slight smirk, watching Samantha's stunned face. "We've faced off so many times, and I actually had a bit of respect for you. You're the first one who's given me a run for my money. But how could you become so naive?"

A sinking feeling gripped Samantha. Clenching her teeth, she fixed her eyes on Vivienne. "What are you implying?"

With a casual stance, hands in her pockets, Vivienne looked down at Samantha. "Why do you think I went through all this trouble to capture you?"

Samantha glared back in silence.

Vivienne indulged her with an answer. "It's to prevent any possible escape attempts or suicide. Did you think you could use your inner energy to detonate a bomb inside you and take us down together? Sorry, I'm too young for that. I haven't had enough quality time with my dear Mr. Wolf to check out just yet. So, when I came in, I not only drugged you but also used silver needles to seal your energy points." Thomas was speechless. Leopold was flabbergasted.

Vivienne and Percival were literally constantly flaunting their love.
