The Million-Dollar Heart (Percival and Vivienne)

Chapter 228

Vivienne scoffed as her fingers twitched to reveal a silver needle.

If she could solve a problem with one needle, she didn't want to use two.

But then the two men surprisingly pulled out hypodermic needles, injecting their bodies with some sort

of substance.

"Percival!" Thomas exclaimed, immediately stepping up to shield Percival.

No wonder GTO sent only two men over. They were prepared.

"Dorian." Vivienne's voice turned serious for once. "Stay hidden and protect yourself."

Before Dorian could respond, the two drugged-up men had already rushed towards Vivienne like wild

beasts.

Vivienne and Percival, in turn, charged at them like lightning.

As Percival charged out, he ordered Thomas. "Go protect Dorian."

Thomas rushed over, shielding Dorian.

After injecting the substance, the two men's strength and speed increased exponentially as their eyes

became bloodshot with madness.

Upon their first clash, both Vivienne and Percival’s faces grew grim. They were dealing with the two

men’s attacks as the air filled with the muffled sounds of fists meeting flesh and bodies colliding.

Dorian, protected by Thomas, was dumbfounded. He had seen how Evelyn, when he first met her,

fought like a lone wolf, and now he was witnessing the same scene with Vivienne.

At that moment, the images of mother and daughter overlapped in his vision, and he couldn't help but

feel his eyes moisten.

Why did she have to bear the same burden and fate as her mother?

After a few rounds of fighting, Vivienne and Percival skillfully swept their legs, kicking the two men into

the living room.

Their large figures crashed into the room like sacks of potatoes, landing amid a mess of items.

The two men, with the last vestiges of their sanity hanging by a thread, couldn't believe their eyes as © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

they stared at Vivienne and Percival. They had injected themselves with a substance that enhanced

their physical abilities by burning their life force.

They were among the GTO's finest assassins, and after being enhanced by the substance, no ordinary

person could possibly defeat them one on one.

Were these two even human?

"We've been underestimated!" Vivienne looked at the men and scoffed. "Last time, Omen caught me

off guard. This time, without any hostages to worry about, you think a cheap drug could stop me?!"

The two men paused, then hardened their faces, howling as they charged again.

...

In the nearby unit, in Coral's bedroom.

Faye, who had come over for a visit with Charlotte, looked towards the balcony inexplicably. "Coral, is

there a slaughterhouse near your neighborhood?"

"A slaughterhouse?" Coral looked at Faye as if she were an idiot. "This area is worth its weight in gold.

What kind of boss would dare open a slaughterhouse here?"

"But why do I feel like I heard the sound of a pig being slaughtered?" Faye asked, puzzled.

"That's impossible." Charlotte also started to laugh. "If there were a slaughterhouse near Tranquil

Estates, it wouldn't be able to sell for such a high price."

Just then, Coral's phone rang. She checked her messages and started laughing. "Strange… The

neighborhood group chat is also saying they heard the sound of a pig being slaughtered."

The group chat was filled with complaints.

"Who could be so rude? Slaughtering pigs in the middle of the night? It's so noisy!"

"I think it's coming from building 12."

"It is from building 12. I can vouch for that because I live there. It's so noisy. Why isn't the property

management doing anything?"

"It seems to be from unit 1601, the same unit that reported a burglary today. I think they're crying

because their valuables were stolen."

"That unit is rented, right? It's so sad. They don't have much money, and they were robbed. Let's not

complain about them."

"They're crying so miserably. Should we go comfort them?"

"Let's not. They might think we're just there to gawk at their misery. That would be so rude."

Coral, Charlotte, and Faye laughed as they read the messages. Faye sighed and asked, "Poor owner,

do you know them, Coral?"

Coral thought for a moment, but she couldn't remember who lived in unit 1601 of building 12, so she

shook her head. "I don't know. Let's continue our game."

So, the three girls went back to their game and ignored the situation.

In reality, the two assassins were indeed close to crying after being beaten by Vivienne and Percival.

Ever since the last kidnapping incident, Vivienne had managed to extract the substance the masked

men had injected themselves with from their blood. She sent it to her laboratory in Rivenwood to find

an antidote.

Although an antidote had not yet been found, a neutralizing agent that could weaken the enhancing

effects of the substance had been developed.

Vivienne had it in her possession, so she decided to test it on these two men.

During their fight, she managed to use the neutralizing agent on the two men, weakening the

enhancements they had gained from the substance.

Naturally, they were no match for Vivienne and Percival.

Only after Vivienne and Percival had completely beaten the two men into submission did Dorian and

Thomas emerge from the bedroom.

Dorian stared at the unconscious assassins on the floor, while Vivienne was casually stepping on one

of their heads.

Then there was a knock on the door.

Percival gave Thomas a look, and Thomas cautiously peered through the peephole. His tense body

immediately relaxed.

After opening the door, Leopold bounced in. "Surprise!"

Immediately after, he widened his eyes at the sight of the two unconscious men and Vivienne, who was

using one of them as a footrest.

"Vivienne, what on earth are you doing?"

Vivienne's phone buzzed in her pocket. She ignored Leopold and checked it out. It was a message

from Draven.

"Boss, Anna has disappeared."

After dealing with Felix, Vivienne dispatched Draven to Rivenwood to keep an eye on and protect

Anna.

She had a premonition that if Anna were to leave, she would most likely expose herself to GTO, but

she didn't expect things to go south so quickly.

A slight frown appeared on Vivienne's face.

"Got it; I'll handle it." She replied.

She finally found Anna after searching for so long, but before Vivienne even had the chance to find her

in Rivenwood, she went missing again.

"What are you here for?" Percival asked Leopold, his tone indifferent.

Leopold leaned in with a playful smile on his face, but his voice lowered and became serious. "There's

news from headquarters. Base number three has been infiltrated and heavily damaged. We need to

quickly head back to Rivenwood."
