The Million-Dollar Heart
Chapter 1033
Vivienne and Percival returned to their place.
An hour later, Matthew called. "Viv," he began, "those guys in black were long gone by the time we got there, but we've ID'd the bodies. All missing their hearts." "Fifteen in total, all underage girls, and none of them in the system."
Vivienne wasn't surprised.
The body she had found with Delilah likely came from the same source.
For someone like Abigail, using the undead to harvest these victims for her healing rituals was child's play.
The reason she hadn't touched these people before was fear of exposing her final trump card too soon.

Abigail was gearing up for a final showdown!
The next day, Vivienne took the mysterious box to Finnian.
When it came to exotic artifacts, no one was more knowledgeable than him.
Inspecting the box, Finnian nodded, "I can unlock it, but it'll take two days."
Vivienne was about to leave when Finnian stopped her, "Hold up, take a look at this. Just found it."
He handed her an ancient book.
