Chapter 83

At the same time.

After the Ellington family folks stepped out of the hotel, they all picked up the pace and followed

Richard.

Percival, Leopold, and Thomas were trailing at the back

Only when he saw the few cars in front pull away did Percival stop and said to Thomas, “You need to

keep an eye on Dorian.”

Thomas was taken aback, not quite getting it.

Leopold didn’t understand either, but he just asked straight up, “You just got engaged to Ms. Hawthorn

and you’re already watching her father? What’s up with that?”

Percival glanced at him and said flatly, “He might have the potion.”

Leopold and Thomas were both taken aback, staring at him.

After a moment, Leopold finally caught up, “The potion? Dorian? Are you kidding me?”

Even though Dorian was part of the Hawthorn family, he was really just ordinary. How could he possibly

have such an important potion?

Percival pursed his lips, his serious face unreadable, “I found that the potion is related to Vivienne’s

mother. Dorian mentioned giving something to Beatrice, it might be that potion

“Then what are we waiting for? We should go find him right away! How can such a thing be given to

Beatrice? Is he crazy?” Leopold was somewhat anxious.

That potion was incredibly important and incredibly dangerous.

There had been orders to find that potion at all costs.

GTO had already sent out hitmen, they’ve infiltrated Havenwood. Whoever had that potion

would die.

Plus, there were other powers also looking for that potion, it was a hot potato for anyone.

Dorian got his hands on the potion, but instead of hiding it, he openly announced he was giving it to

Beatrice. Was he tired of living?

“We can’t go!” Percival said seriously, “We’re not sure if what he’s giving Beatrice is that potion, we’re

not sure if he’s truly good. We can’t just make a move.”

Percival looked at Thomas, saying, “You keep an eye on Dorian first, if what he’s giving Beatrice is that

potion, grab it right away!”

Even though taking things by force was not his style, this was incredibly important. They couldn’t make

a rash decision. They could only grab it.

“Alright.” Thomas nodded seriously.

Percival hesitated a moment, then added, “Don’t do it yourself, let someone else do it.”

At Tranquil Estates

After Dorian returned home, he said to Vivienne, “Vivienne, there’s something I want to talk to you

about

Vivienne sat on the sofa and asked him, “What is it?”

She was originally planning to ask Dorian what he was giving Beatrice when she got home. Siece

Dorian had something to say she’d just listen.

After spending these past few days with Dorian, she found him to be an honest man.

But she couldn’t be sure about the potion.

She’s dealt with many people. If Dorian’s goodness was a facade, then he was really something

She hoped her judgment was not wrong.

She didn’t want her image of Dorian to change.

“Well, the thing is… Dorian gently bit his lip, carefully choosing his words, “Your mother was a very

talented perfumer. When she married me, she created a few perfumes. It was these perfumes that

brought the Hawthorn family from a declining family to a brilliant one.”

Vivienne nodded.

She knew her mother was a perfumer.

In fact, her mother had many identities, but the Hawthorn family only knew she was a perfumer.

Vivienne didn’t interrupt, quietly waiting for Dorian to continue.

“After your mother left, she called me once, she gave me the perfume formulas. There were twenty-

eight in total. She used eight during her years in the Hawthorn family. After she left, I never used those

formulas again. Now, I’ve decided to give one of the perfume formulas to your grandmother.”

Dorian carefully watched Vivienne. He was worried she would be angry since these were her mother’s

belongings

When Evelyn took Vivienne and left, he frantically searched for them but to no avail.

One day Evelyn suddenly called him, told him she left the perfume formulas, hid them in a book in his

bookshelf. After that, she hung up. The next time he heard from her, she already passed away.

He was heartbroken. After finding the perfume formulas, he decided never to use them again. He felt

the Hawthorn family didn’t deserve the glory Evelyn brought

Chapter 83

But now, he had no choice but to take them out.

Beatrice was like a vampire, sucking his blood before, now Vivienne’s

Handing over the formula and cutting ties with the Hawthorn family once and for all would bring peace

to their family.

Vivienne was somewhat surprised. She didn’t expect Dorian to talk about perfume formulas When she

heard that he was using something to cut off the relationship with Beatrice, she always thought it was

the potion.

Seeing her not speaking, Dorian thought she was really angry and quickly said, “Vivienne, I know you

and your mother were very close. I don’t want to give the perfume formula either but… your

grandmother is really too much. Today at your engagement, so many people were there, her behavior

was completely unbecoming. If I don’t use the formula to shut her up, I’m afraid she’ll keep making a

fuss. I want to use the formula to get peace for our family, but after all, it’s your mother’s stuff. I need

your consent. If you’re not willing, then I…” Dorian thought for a moment, “I’ll look for investors

tomorrow.”

Anyway, Beatrice initially wanted 10 million. He’d just say he lost the formula, and there wouldn’t be

anything the Hawthorn family could do about it.

Vivienne fell silent for a moment, then slowly started, “Mr. Hawthorn, I have a question for you.”

“Go ahead.”

“You realize how much my mother’s perfume formula is worth. You’ve been having a rough time in the

Hawthorn family, why not trade the formula for some cash?” Vivienne looked up at him, “There are tons

of perfume companies out there, if you sell just one formula, life could be a whole lot easier.”

“Vivienne, you don’t get it!” Dorian heaved a sigh, “I owe your mother so much, she gave a lot for this

family and I couldn’t do anything for her. I promised her I’d protect her, but I failed…”

Tears suddenly welled up in Dorian’s eyes, “I didn’t even get to see her one last time before she

passed away. This formula is the last thing she left behind, I don’t want to use it for personal gain.”

Vivienne watched Dorian, trying to spot any deceit in his eyes, but all she found was sincerity. Later on,

Vivienne asked again, “Did my mother only give you the perfume formula? Was there anything else?”

Dorian suddenly hesitated, seeming about to say something, but after a while, he finally said, “No, she

only gave me the perfume formula.”

The slight unease in his eyes didn’t escape Vivienne’s notice. She didn’t press any further, but said,

“Mr. Hawthorn, you make the decision. You don’t need my approval. Since my mother gave it to you,

it’s yours.”
