Vivienne and Percival made their way to the backyard.

Finnian had been waiting for quite some time, and upon seeing them, he set down his cup of coffee, "You're here."

Vivienne approached the empty table, "Master, where's the stuff?"

Finnian stroked his beard, "I had your grandfather get some experts to look at it. It's been stored in a specialized freezer."

Vivienne had a hunch about what it could be.

"How much is there?"

"Only enough for a few people."

Percival frowned; although he didn't know what Vivienne was worried about, anything that concerned both master and apprentice had to be significant. Finnian stood up, "Follow me, you'll understand once you see it."

The item was inside the house where Finnian lived, but surprisingly, Jasper was sitting at the table.

Vivienne paused, "Grandpa?"

Jasper looked at her with concern, "Vivienne, you shouldn't have kept this from me."

Vivienne bit her lip, deciding to come clean, "Grandpa, that person was after me from the start. It's something I have to deal with."

"No matter who this Abigail is, our Perez family won't allow anyone to bully you like this."

Vivienne worried about this exact reaction and spent a good while soothing Jasper.

During their conversation, Finnian had already taken out the item, a red glass vial now lay exposed for all to see.

Vivienne's expression changed upon seeing it.

Though she had guessed Abigail's intentions, the depth of her malevolence was still shocking.
