The Million-Dollar Heart (Percival and Vivienne) novel Chapter 364

The Brooks family stared in disbelief yet again.

"What on earth is going on now?

Come on! Can't a guy enjoy a meal in peace?

This is really going to drive me nuts!" They all thought.

With a smirk spreading across his face, Percival forked another piece of steak onto his plate and teased, "What are you doing? Don't make it look like I'm bullying you. I'm a gentle soul."

Leopold was speechless.

Gross!

Bullshit!

Percival tilted his head and looked at Vivienne. "Vivienne, I'm gentle, right?"

"Yeah." Vivienne nodded earnestly, "My Mr. Wolf here is the gentlest gentleman on earth."

Leopold was utterly at a loss for words.

Percival's smile deepened, and he whispered to Leopold, "Come on! Eat up so we can head to Fariana Isle soon!"

Leopold, nearly in tears, pleaded, "No, please! Percival! Have mercy, I won't ever think about cutting ties with you again!"

“This is just bloody brilliant! I can't sass my disciples! And I can’t mess with Percival! Who will save me?” He yelled in his mind.

"Alright!" Percival was still grinning as he said, "I have a gift for you."

Leopold suddenly had a bad feeling.

Just then, a furious shout came from outside the private dining room, "Leopold! Get your ass out here!"

Leopold sprang up, his mind a whirlwind, "Damn! Percival, that's cold!"

His doomsday had arrived!

As he attempted to make a run for it, the door was kicked open.

Everyone turned to see a girl in a black leather outfit, her hair cascading over her shoulders, stride in.

She headed straight for Leopold.

Leopold shivered and dashed away.

However, after just two steps, the girl leaped forward, blocking his path, and grabbed his shirt. "Running away? You sleep with me, ditch me, and now you dare to hide?"

The crowd cast odd looks at Leopold.

Feeling the heat on his face, Leopold shoved her away, exasperated, "Griffin Martinez, cut the crap, when did I ever sleep with you?"

"I don't care. You're not getting away! Even if I have to break your legs, you're coming with me to the courthouse today!" Griffin stood with her hands on her hips, fuming.

"I wouldn't marry you if you were the last woman on earth!" Leopold blurted out and bolted.

Griffin lunged after him, sweeping her leg in an attempt to trip him.

Leopold dodged and took off.

Griffin would not let him get away, kicking him square in the back.

"Ow, hey!" Leopold stumbled and fell, yelling, "Are you serious?"

If it were not for the fact she was a woman, he would have fought back!

Griffin straddled him and grabbed his hair. "You’re the first to sleep with me and not take responsibility. Let me tell you, you're not getting away unless I'm six feet under!"

She choked Leopold with her arm. "I'll ask you one more time. Are you coming with me to the courthouse or not?"

"No way!" Leopold was furious.

This crazy woman! Spouting nonsense!

He had been avoiding her at all costs. Why would he sleep with her?
