The Million-Dollar Heart

Chapter 1069

Griffin felt a throbbing pain in his temples, adamantly sticking to his choice, "The black one."

Leopold acknowledged with a grunt, obediently putting the others away.

The hall was packed with well-wishers.

Vivienne sat in the lounge, surrounded by Finnian, Jasper, and Yorick, who had made special trips to be there.

Next to her were some snacks and pastries, thoughtfully prepared by Mr. Wolf.

This banquet was significant for both families.

As her father put it, it was also about making up for past regrets during her own wedding.
