The Million-Dollar Heart Novel Episode
Chapter 54

The second Percival finished speaking, Leopold, Thomas, and Lysander all looked like they'd seen a ghost.

What the heck had they just heard?

Percival was going to become a teacher?

Were they hallucinating?

Lysander was the first to pull himself together. He asked, hesitantly, "Mr. Percy, did you just say you're going to be a PE teacher?"

Surely he'd misheard, right?

That was what Mr. Percy said, right?

"Is that a problem?" Percival's gaze followed Vivienne into Class Eighteen, then pulled back.

"Uh, well." Lysander hesitated.

Should he agree or disagree?

He mulled it over for a moment, then finally said, "Sure!"

He had to make this happen, no matter what!

"You handle it." Percival paused, then said, "Don't let anyone know my real identity. Use the name of Percival, the seventh young master of the Ellington family, for the hiring process."

Lysander was stunned. He thought, "The seventh young master of the Ellington family, isn't he disabled? Why would Mr. Percy pretend to be him?"

He had never met Percival and didn't know the man standing before him as Mr. Percy was actually the so-called useless young master of the Ellington family.

But he quickly pieced together some things. Percival and Mr. Percy.

"I get it." Lysander showed Percival around the campus. After getting a brief understanding, Percival left with Leopold and the others.

Back in the car, Leopold couldn't hold back anymore. He asked, "Mr. Ellington, are you trying to escape some trouble by becoming a teacher? We're really busy, you know? We still haven't found that potion, and people from GTO has reached Havenwood. Shouldn't you be rushing to find the potion instead of messing around with teaching?"

Percival leaned back in his seat. His deep-set eyes were half-closed, and his long fingers rested on the leather seat. He spoke unhurriedly, "I have some leads on the potion."

"You found it? Where?" Leopold immediately pressed, "We should go get it right away."

Percival didn't answer. "I need to confirm it first!"

"But since you already have leads, we should." Leopold wanted to say more, but Percival cut him off, "I have my own plans."

Then he turned to look out the car window, his stern face revealing nothing of his feelings. Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

After a while, he withdrew his gaze, took out his phone, and looked at a piece of information he'd received last night.

It was a top-secret level S file. The name on it was Vivienne!

He had ten files on Vivienne.

Each one was the same, except for this level S top-secret file.

There was very little information about Vivienne, not even a picture. Even in this level S file, there was no photo of Vivienne.

Other files showed that Vivienne moved to a place in the mountains at nine, left at nineteen, and then joined the Hawthorn family. He had a general understanding of what happened, and not much was left out. The level S file showed that Vivienne was a strong learner from a young age. She took a university entrance exam at fourteen and became a nationally famous prodigy. At sixteen, she received double doctorate degrees in medicine and biochemistry from Elite University.

This big news was suppressed in a very short time, so very few people knew about Vivienne's past.

Besides, there was Vivienne's mother, Evelyn. She and Dorian met nineteen years ago. Afterward, Dorian insisted on marrying her. Rumor had it that Evelyn was a rural woman, but after marrying into the Hawthorn family, she used a perfume formula to bring a declining family into the real circle of Havenwood's elite in just one year.

Evelyn never made public appearances, and there was no news about her even in Havenwood's media.

He had investigated Evelyn, but he could not find any information about her, such as her age, appearance, or family situation.

The time when Evelyn entered the Hawthorn family and the time when that potion entered Havenwood were very coincidental.

He suspected Evelyn was related to the potion, so he asked the National Archives to get Evelyn and Vivienne's files. They gave him Vivienne's file, but for Evelyn's file-they simply told him that this was the highest level of confidential information, and only the highest authority could review it.

He had an answer in his mind, but something felt off.

He needed to verify it personally and test it. Only through Vivienne could he find the truth!

"Back to the villa. Pick up Isolde." Percival put away his phone and ordered.

Thomas responded. The car made a U-turn, heading towards the villa.

Cloudcrest High School.

Right now, the students of Class Eighteen were painfully filling in their test papers.

When was the last time any of them had even held a pen?

Now they had to fill in all these test papers, and it was like torture. The worst part was that they could read the words on the papers, but they didn't understand them, and they had no idea what to write. They really wanted to rip the papers up, but seeing Vivienne sitting at the front of the class, they had to hold back.

There was a very strict person there. If they dared to rip up their papers, they would definitely be punished.

After handing out the test papers, Vivienne ignored the students.

When the class was finally over, she got up and casually picked up a test paper from a student in the first row. She frowned. "Over forty minutes and you only did five multiple-choice questions." The student looked like he was about to cry. "Ms. Vivienne, please spare me. I really don't know how to do this. I looked at all the questions on this paper, and I only knew how to do these five." Getting five right was thanks to his fairly decent memory. At least he remembered some of the knowledge he learned in his first year of high school, otherwise he wouldn't know a single one. Vivienne put down the test paper and walked over to the other students. The situation was just the same.

On a single test paper, the most anyone had done was only a part of the questions, and the rest only managed a pitiful few.

What was even worse, Charlotte didn't do a single question on her first-year test paper.

Vivienne was silent.

She felt like punching someone. Was that allowed?

She massaged her temples, silently put Charlotte's test paper back, and then walked to the front of the classroom. "I asked you to do what you know, instead of finishing a test paper in one class." At this pace, they wouldn't be able to finish all the test papers in a week.

"Take a break. After the next course starts, just answer the questions you know. Leave the rest blank, and you need to finish all the questions today."

"You should have said that earlier!" Logan had greatly admired Vivienne since he met her. When she wasn't angry, she was quite approachable, so he wasn't as scared of Vivienne now, he said, "If we can leave the questions we don't know blank, then we wouldn't need a whole day. We could finish in one course."

Vivienne ignored this blowhard.

However, the fact proved that her assessment of these good-for-nothing, irresponsible students with nothing in their heads was still too high.
