The Million-Dollar Heart novel Chapter 134

Cloudcrest High School.

Ordinarily, today was a day without gym class. However, Percival was anxious about Vivienne and had accompanied her to school.

As they arrived at the main entrance, they saw a group of parents outside the gates of Cloudcrest High School, holding up a banner that read, "Expel the criminal's daughter! A pedophile’s daughter has no business teaching!"

A middle-aged man was standing on a stone pedestal beside the road, shouting into a megaphone at passersby.

"They say like father, like son, and the same applies to daughters. What kind of girl can be raised by a man who abused his own foster child? Having his daughter as a teacher is not only a bad influence but also a scandal waiting to happen!"

These parents had blocked the entrance, preventing Percival's car from entering.

Without avoiding them, Vivienne got out of the car with a calm look on her face. Percival followed her after signaling to Thomas, the driver.

As soon as Vivienne appeared, the parents immediately recognized her. The man with the megaphone immediately shouted, "That's Vivienne!"

Vivienne ignored them, but Percival shot a cold glance at the man, causing him to shudder and nearly fall off the pedestal.

Angered, the man started shouting at Vivienne through the megaphone.

"Ms. Vivienne, how dare you show your face at this school?! The girl your father raped was not only his foster child but also a student at this school. I refuse to believe you didn't know about your father's crimes! You're an accomplice! A criminal!"

"Is your child in Class Eighteen?” Vivienne asked, her eyes narrowing in an intense stare.

"No.” The man began to answer, then asked suspiciously, "Why are you asking this? Are you planning to retaliate against my son?"

"You are not even associated with my class, so why are you causing a fuss?” Vivienne retorted.

The man was taken aback, then began to shout again, "Even if my son isn't your student, who can feel safe with you lurking around the school?"

Vivienne's eyes narrowed even further, but her face remained emotionless. "So, what do you propose?"

The man shouted defiantly, "Leave Cloudcrest High School! The college entrance test is only a month away. Who knows what could happen in that time?!"

"What happens is none of your business."

Suddenly, a voice scolded him from the side. A parade of luxury cars pulled up to the school entrance, surrounding the protesting parents.

Those unaware of the situation would have thought it was a showdown between rival gangs.

A group of well-dressed men and women got out of the cars and stood in front of Vivienne. They were the parents of Class Eighteen’s students, led by Charlotte's grandmother.
