The Million-Dollar Heart
Chapter 1024
After the photo shoot, Vivienne was left speechless.
Out of the dozen people, she and her mentor, Dawson, stuck out like sore thumbs.
And of course, they had been placed right in the middle.
Like two overly festive "clowns" in a sea of subtlety.
The rest of the group, however, lit up at the sight of the photo, eagerly asking for copies.
Dawson, ever the eccentric, and Vivienne, not much for frivolities, made this gathering a first for their group, Emerald Mountain. This photo was, in a way, their "family portrait." Dawson glanced at the photo now set as his screensaver, nodding in approval, "Leopold, well done, lad. Much appreciated!"
"I'll have to get this printed and hung by my bed. Leopold, you've outdone yourself this time."
Leopold beamed with pride.
Seeing the leftover tear streaks on Leopold's face from the ceremony, Griffin's heart softened. She passed him a tissue under the table, "Here, wipe it off before the others start teasing." Finnian, overhearing, let out a hearty laugh, "Oh, come on, we all know Leopold's strengths. Nothing we haven't seen before."
Leopold's cheeks flushed, "Master, could you not bring up my past blunders today, especially not in front of Griffin!"
Finnian laughed even harder, "Alright, alright."
A student grows, and pride must be preserved.
But as a mentor, Finnian felt certain responsibilities, especially with Leopold being the first among them to get married. He had to share some wisdom.
"Leopold's partner..."
Griffin straightened up, ready to listen, "Yes, Master?"
