The Million-Dollar Heart by Rebecca Ryan

Chapter 276

Richard’s face fell immediately. “Fiona, what nonsense are you talking about?”

Fiona gave them a slight smile, pulled out her phone, and played a recording

The conversation between Paula and Stardust was clearly audible in the hall

How Paula had bribed Stardust and planned to embarrass Vivienne at the family reunion was all

revealed

Paula’s face turned pale She never would have thought that Fiona would record her conversation with

Stardust.

Especially since she had just assumed that Fiona was on her side

Everyone was stunned

“I can’t believe Paula would be this malicious After all Ms Vivienne is her niece. She even wanted to

ruin her niece’s banquet

“Paula once drugged Mark to marry him, causing Mark to break up with his fiancée She has done such

things before, so it’s not surprising that she would do it again

“I wonder what Scott is going to do On one hand is his sister, on the other is his daughter

Paula was both angry and anxious as she listened to the conversations around her.

She hurriedly defended herself. “It wasn’t me! That’s not my voice! Fiona is framing me”

“SMACK”

As soon as she finished speaking, Baron slapped her across the face. With such clear evidence, you’re

still trying to deny if it seems you didn’t take my waming senously last time!”

For this banquet, they considered Vivienne’s feelings and prohibited Paula from attending.

But she had sneaked in anyway

With so many people present today, he didn’t want to make a scene because of Paula

But who would have thought that she would go as far as to drug Vivienne’s dress?

Baron used all his strength in that slap, so Paula’s face instantly swelled

She covered her face, angrily saying. “Dad‘ Why did you hit me? I’ve said it wasn’t me! It was obviously

Vivienne harmed Eddy! You can’t blame me just because of Vivienne

Then, Paula glared at Fiona Fiona is probably in cahoots with Vivienne. Who knows? This might be

Richard’s doing! The Ellington family wants to suppress us and the Miller families, so they made up this

recording to frame me

Fiona laughed “I hadn’t even met Vivienne before this banquet. How could we conspire to frame you?

Can you really say that? If you have doubts about this recording, you can inspect it. We the Ellington

family, don’t need to bully an outsider like you.”

Richard’s face improved a lot after hearing the recording.

He was very satisfied with Fiona

Compared to his other grandchildren, apart from Percival, Fiona was the one who pleased him the

most.

Members of the Ellington family should present a united front

Percival cast a deep gaze on Fiona

Paula was somewhat flustered How could she inspect it? That was obviously her in the recording

If she inspected it wouldn’t she be admitting her guilt?

At that moment Eddy was brought out from Vivienne’s dressing room by the Miller family’s servant,

causing Stardust’s live stream to also shut down.

Seeing this. Paula humed over ‘Eddy, are you okay? Can you tell me what happened? Why were you

in Vivienne’s dressing room? Did she kidnap you?

After saying this she gave Eddy a complete once–over

The effects of the drug had completely worn off after his encounter with the man

He was now clear headed, but every time he thought about what he had done with a man

Ugh!

He quickly ran to a comer found a tras can, and vomited violently

When he felt a little better. Eddy charged over with a face tha

With that, he charged at Vivienne

Vivienne stood still and looked at him indifferently with her hands in her pockets.

Percival quickly stepped in front of Vivienne

At the same time, Scott and Leopold rushed over

Leopold aimed a kick at Eddy, targeting his special place.

rienne You

of ground, Eddy let out a yell and hopped around clutching himself.

Boolt mand. Bastard!”

Scott’s fury startled Eddy He hadn’t seen his uncle be angry in a long time and was momentarily scared

stiff

Scott’s eyes were filled with a burning rage as he glared at Eddy. I haven’t settled the score with you for

framing Vivienne, and now you dare lay a hand on her in public? Do you really think I’m dead?”

“Uncle,

Eddy fell into a sudden panic. He was about to explain when Scott yelled, Tie him up and hand him

over to the police! Tell the police that we do not accept any mediation!”

Vivienne, who had been watching coldly from the side, raised her eyes slightly, and her lips curled into

an indifferent smile

She was laughing, but nothing about her smile was genuine.

“No” Paula shrieked ‘Brother, you can’t do this to Eddy! He’s your nephew! You caused me to lose

Katara, so you can’t let me lose Eddy too!

“Shut up!” Scott commanded coldly, “Because of Katara. I have been tolerating you, but that’s not a

reason for you to bully Vivienne again and again! You lost your daughter, so you take it out on mine?

What kind of logic is that”

He felt quilty about and responsible for Katara’s loss.

Over the years, he had been secretly and openly supporting Paula, helping her resolve numerous

issues. He figured that he had done enough.

“But you still owe me i don’t care! You once promised me a favor, and I want you to let Eddy go! Paula

knew that the situation had escalated to a point where nobody would believe her innocence

The evidence was indisputable

If Scott were to dig deeper he would undoubtedly find her connection to Stardust.

Instead of framing Vivienne, she decided to prontize protecting Eddy

Scott furrowed his brows. He had completely forgotten about the promise he made to Paula years ago.

He paused for a moment and turned to glance at Vivienne

She was looking back at him Her face was an unreadable mixture of smiles and seriousness.

Those crystal–clear eyes seemed capable of seeing through everything. It pierced straight into his

heart, revealing his true intentions.

“Vivienne, L.

Scott was about to speak when a few uniformed officers walked in

They flashed their badges and continued to professionally address why they had arrived. “Eddy, we

need you to come with us. There have been reports of you streaming inappropriate content. Please

come with us to assist in our investigation”
