The Million-Dollar Heart
Chapter 737
Vivienne's eyes crinkled with mirth, "Soren's injuries still have yet to recover?"
Anna replied with a soft concern, "It's healed, mostly. But the spot where the shrapnel hit him, it flares up whenever there's a storm brewing. Ms. Vivienne, do you know of any remedy that could help him fully recover?"
"Sure do," Vivienne said, her eyes gleaming with mischief as if she were privy to some juicy gossip. "But why are you asking on his behalf? Let him come to me. Treatment needs to be personalized, doesn't it? How can I offer advice without seeing the patient himself?"
At Vivienne's words, Anna's cheeks flushed a deeper shade of red. "I-I wanted him to come, but he's a bit reluctant. He's scared of Percival, and then there's the matter of..."
Her voice trailed off, growing fainter and fainter as if she were grappling with how to articulate her thoughts. Her eyes were a tumultuous sea of turmoil and embarrassment.

Aaron, ever blunt and without reservations, blurted out, "Vivienne, let me fill you in. It's all Kenneth's fault. Lately, that boy's been acting like a lovesick puppy, shadowing Anna every chance he gets." It wasn't just his clinginess that was the issue.

But then he went off the deep end with those heart- shaped music boxes, you know, the ones with glittery rainbow colors and Anna's picture plastered all over them. And the cacti? Don't even get me started, and then there was that snow globe..."
Vivienne listened, her face contorting with second-hand embarrassment.
She tried to maintain a straight face, but her twitching lips betrayed her. She had little hope that Aaron's storytelling was going to improve.
