The Million-Dollar Heart (Percival and Vivienne)
Chapter 894

Vivienne's brow twitched with intrigue, unable to quench her thirst for wealth. She watched Percival with a curious eye, his face a shade of deep annoyance.

A nearby staff member, unable to hold back, chimed in, "That's just low, stealing someone's boyfriend right in front of them?"

Brianna's face darkened, a storm brewing within her. She longed to lash out but instead set her sights on Percival. Her eyes fluttered with a mix of shyness and excitement, "What do you say, Percival? Join me, and I'll give you a cool $50,000 a month!"

"And if you agree," she added, a wicked gleam in her eye, "grab that woman next to you and the nosy staff member, and give them a piece of your mind!"

Brianna was sure he'd capitulate. $50,000 wasn't a small sum, after all. She, who splurged a million a month, considered this a generous offer.

Percival's expression darkened, his presence chilling. "Vivienne, she's offering $50,000 to buy me off. What's your move?"

Vivienne, amused, quirked an eyebrow and licked her lips, "Fifty thousand? That's quite the sum. I don't have $50,000, but how about $500,000 to keep you?" Without waiting for a response, she pulled him close for a deep, passionate kiss, their tongues dancing in fervor.

Percival, caught in the moment, wrapped his arms around her, returning her kiss with equal intensity.

When they finally parted for air, Brianna stood fuming, her anger boiling over. "You'll regret this!" Percival scoffed, "Regret? Hardly."

He turned to Brianna's security detail, his voice cold, "Grab her. I'll pay each of you a million."

The guards exchanged looks of disbelief. A million? Working a lifetime for the Wrights might not even guarantee such a sum!

Brianna's shock was palpable. "A million per person? Is this some kind of joke?"

Percival's frown deepened, "Not enough? Let's make it two million then."

The guards hesitated, tempted.

Vivienne broke the silence, gesturing to the staff member, "You, take the lead."

The staff member's eyes widened, "Me?"

Vivienne nodded, reassuring, "Afraid? You don't have to if you're scared."

"I'll do it!" the staff member

exclaimed, determination in their et

voice. If I don't, she'll never let me live it down. Might as well goout with a bang and $200,000 richer." en.swhovels.net

Vivienne chuckled at their courage, "Just give back what you received."

The staff member, emboldened, tackled Brianna to the ground, surprising even themselves with their strength.

As Brianna raged, threatening vengeance, the staff member delivered a sharp slap, drawing blood.

"You dared hit me!" Brianna seethed.

The staff member struck again, their

hand swift. "Your threats mean nothing. You, who look down on.us,

are nothing without your family's name. Hitting you is the most satisfying thing I've done."

The guards, previously loyal to Brianna, applauded the staff member's bravery, signaling their resignation.

Brianna, humiliated and furious, vowed revenge.

Vivienne, unfazed, requested the check, producing an exclusive black card, one of only three in existence, leaving Brianna in stunned silence. The staff member couldn't quite believe her ears, having guessed Vivienne packed a punch, but she didn't expect her to rock the house like this!

She reached out to take the black card, swiping it through the machine with a swift motion, and the screen lit up with the words "Payment Successful." "Hope to see you again soon." The staff member bowed slightly, a gesture of gratitude towards Vivienne.

Vivienne took her card back,

The employee was stunned, hastily offering Vivienne three deep nods, "Ms. Hawthorn, thank you so much!"
