The Million-Dollar Heart novel Chapter 401

Vivienne gazed at the text message on her phone, a gentle curve forming in her eyes as she smiled.

Unbeknownst to her, the live stream audience could see it clearly as day.

Her usually cool and collected profile was now brimming with unmistakable sweetness.

The kind of sweetness that screamed she was head over heels in love.

Screenshots of her expression flooded the internet in an instant.

Everyone was swooning.

Come on, what kind of angelic beauty was this?

But within half a minute, all those screenshots mysteriously vanished.

Matthew, who was in charge of erasing Vivienne's digital footprints, texted her in surprise.

[Vivienne, did you delete those screenshots yourself?]

She turned off the live stream. Her lips still curved in amusement. [Nope, my significant other took care of it.]

Matthew was speechless.

Meanwhile, said significant other had set the highly sought-after screenshots as their phone wallpaper, chat background, and even Facebook cover.

The original focus of the reality show was supposed to be Stephen and Lucia, stirring up a romance for the fans.

But a single live broadcast had shifted everyone's attention to Vivienne and Kala.

With Vivienne's subtle steering, more eyes were on Kala, giving her career a fresh boost.

Lucia's scandals were dug up as the filming days passed, and her career plummeted.

...

Midway through, Vivienne returned to the hospital.

Anna had come around but was still recovering from her injuries, confined to ongoing treatment in the hospital ward.

When Anna saw Vivienne enter, she tried to rise, nearly wincing with pain.

"Stay put. I'm just here to check on you," Vivienne said, taking a seat beside the bed. "Why did you act on your own?"

Anna looked down, her face etched with remorse. "I... I found out the truth about my mother's death."

Vivienne frowned.

Anna's mother, Daphne, had been a trusted ally of her mother. After a mission failure, Karen had split the potion, keeping one part and entrusting Daphne with the other.

Afterward, Daphne vanished, only to resurface in Havenwood with a little girl in tow—Anna.

Then Daphne met an untimely death, and Anna disappeared.

Vivienne knew Daphne's death was no accident, just like her mother's.

"What did you find out?" She asked, her voice low.

Anna kept her head down. "My mom's death was indeed tied to GTO, but the key player was the Brooks family!"

"How did you find out?" Vivienne pressed.

Anna hesitated, then realized, "You knew? Is Lark also..."

Vivienne gave a slight nod.
