The Million-Dollar Heart (Percival and Vivienne) novel Chapter 182

Dawson's eyes were ablaze with fury. It was as if he were about to devour someone.

His beloved Mystic Mistress had been whisked away by some audacious man.

And he was kept in the dark?

Dorian couldn't quite understand why Dawson was so upset about his daughter getting engaged.

Did Vivienne know him?

Dorian's silence made Dawson get impatient. He grabbed Dorian's arm and squeezed it with force. "Who did Vivienne get engaged to?"

Dorian winced at Dawson's grip. He was a little speechless, but due to Dawson's position as the chairman, he had no choice but to answer, "Percival."

"Percival? Who the hell is that brat?" Dawson's eyes were practically spitting fire.

Dorian was at a loss.

Didn't the Chairman of Alliance Enterprises know that Percival was Richard Ellington's most cherished grandson?

Apparently, he didn't.

Since Dorian was struggling to speak, Dawson waved his hand dismissively. "Never mind, I'll find out myself!"

He stormed back to his office and called for his assistant.

"Find out everything about this Percival. Birth date, habits, everything. I want to know every detail." Dawson gave out this order with a stern face.

The assistant was taken aback. "Are you referring to Percival, the fiancé of Vivienne Hawthorn?"

The Hawthorn family had long gone bankrupt; their glory days were over.

Although Vivienne was still referred as Miss Hawthorn, this name no longer carried any weight.

Dawson froze. "You know Vivienne?"

"Of course! Everyone in the Havenwood elite circle knows about Vivienne and Percival."

The assistant looked at him strangely.

What was going on? Why was the chairman suddenly interested in Vivienne and Percival?

Did they offend him?

Was he planning to bankrupt Vivienne and the Ellington family?

Dawson frowned, not liking this at all.

Everyone in the Havenwood elite circle knew about Vivienne and Percival, yet he, as the fifth disciple of the Vivienne, didn't know a thing.

He rested his fingers on his expensive office desk as he narrowed his eyes. "Tell me everything you know about them."

"Vivienne is the daughter of Dorian Hawthorn, the third master of the Hawthorn family, and Percival is the seventh master of the Ellington family of Rivenwood. He was disabled but miraculously recovered. Percival and Vivienne had a marriage contract, but everyone thought it was with Arabella, the talented maiden of Havenwood."

"But then Dorian found Vivienne, and she became the betrothed. However, I heard that Vivienne was raised in a rural monastery, and the old lady of the Hawthorn family disapproved. There were some incidents, and there were even videos online, but they were removed for some reason. The real cause of the rupture between Vivienne and the Hawthorn family was..."

Dawson's cold gaze scared the assistant. He subconsciously backed off a step before continuing. "Faye Churchill was disfigured in a car accident. Doreen asked Arabella for help, but Arabella almost killed Ms. Faye. It was Vivienne who cured her, but Arabella claimed that Vivienne stole her credit. Her fans defended Arabella, angering Percival. Then the Ellington family stepped in, and the Hawthorn family went bankrupt."

He continued. "Later, Arabella falsely accused Dorian of assault and misconduct. Vivienne found the evidence and exposed her. The incident was widely reported. Chairman, didn't you know?"

Dawson clenched his teeth, fuming. "That Arabella!"

He was too busy to keep up with gossip, and he had no interest in it.

Who could have imagined that the usually low-profile Vivienne would become a hot topic in Havenwood?
