The Million-Dollar Heart

Before Vivienne could address the situation, little Winston, who was snuggling in her arms, jolted at the sound, gripping her neck tighter, refusing to let go.

"Something wrong?" Vivienne inquired, looking at him.

Colin, with a serious expression, acknowledged, "I owe Ms. Hawthorn a big thank you for saving Winston!"

Vivienne didn't care to waste any more time. Holding Winston close, she revealed Colin's true identity.

"I know all about your dealings. You haven't done much for Abigail, and it was you who leaked the news about the lab. Considering this, I'm willing to let you off the hook, but a thorough investigation is still necessary. Come with us."

Colin stiffened, realizing Vivienne knew everything about his actions.

As they stepped out of the hall, Draven reported that everything was normal with Hunter, who seemed to have been shocked into silence, unresponsive to any questioning.

Vivienne squinted, not buying that someone who hadn't managed to eliminate Abigail could be so easily traumatized.

"Take him away for solitary confinement," she ordered.

Draven nodded and led the team away.

As Percival was about to take Winston from Vivienne's arms, the boy clung even tighter.

"Sis, can I go home with you? I'm scared here."

Percival was at a loss for words.

"Of course."

Vivienne didn't think twice before agreeing.
