The Million-Dollar Heart novel Chapter 216

Arabella barely acknowledged Melissa and Timothy, who were still in the living room, before she eagerly pulled out her cell phone to call Paul.

She had to dial several times before Paul finally answered. His voice was filled with a cold indifference. “What is it?”

“We should meet.” Arabella said as her mind raced to figure out how to ensure Paul would uphold their deal.

“Fine.” Paul replied after a long silence, then gave her an address. “Meet me at THEONE Club.”

Arabella hung up the phone, ignoring the curious glances from the two in the living room, and headed straight out.

Ashley watched Arabella’s hurried departure with a smirk. Did Arabella really think she could marry Paul?

She wouldn’t let that happen. It was time to release the secret that she had paid a high price to obtain from one of Paul’s ex-girlfriends.

THEONE Club.

“Ms. Vivienne, how about a game of Truth or Dare?”

In the hall, Logan, Oberon, Charlotte, Faye, and Coral were laughing and joking around with Vivienne.

They had invited Vivienne out as a way to say thank you. They had originally planned to go for dinner, but someone suggested they should have drinks instead. So, they ended up at this club owned by the Redwood Group.

“How do we play?” Vivienne asked while raising an eyebrow and sipping her green tea.

“We use this empty bottle.” Logan placed a bottle and a cup filled with dares on the table. “Whoever the bottle points to gets to choose between truth or dare. But if you choose truth the first time, the second time you have to pick dare. No repeats. The dares are drawn from the cup.”

“Alright.” Vivienne was intrigued.

Logan and Oberon exchanged a glance. Both had a sly smile on their faces.

Logan gave the bottle a spin, and it pointed directly at Vivienne. “Ah ha, Ms. Vivienne, truth or dare?”

“Nice trick.” Vivienne already noticed Logan’s sleight of hand. “I’ll choose truth.”

The others started laughing mischievously.

“How long does Mr. Ellington last?” Charlotte whispered.

Vivienne was stunned.

Were they seriously asking that?

“If I answer, can you handle it?” Vivienne asked with an evil grin on her face.

After a brief hesitation as they thought about Percival’s icy gaze, they finally nodded, driven by their curiosity. “We can handle it!”

“I don’t know.” Vivienne replied.

They were shocked.

“Don’t tell me you two haven’t done anything yet!” Coral exclaimed.

Vivienne thought about their close encounter a few days ago. “He’s... capable.”

“How do you know if you’ve never tried?” Coral asked, eager to know more.

“It’s Ms. Vivienne’s turn to spin the bottle.” Faye interrupted, seeing that their conversation was attracting attention from the other patrons.

Vivienne gave the bottle a spin, and it pointed at Oberon. He chose truth. Then he spun the bottle, and it pointed back at Vivienne.

“Ms. Vivienne, it’s time for a dare.” Logan pushed the cup of dares towards her.
