Odalys fighty clapped her hands, turned and opened the car door, sliding into the driver’s seat.
Sering this. Percival opened the passenger side and got in
She noticed the car behind them. Callum was in the driver’s seat, turning the car around and speeding of. It was clear he had been the one to being

“She’s definely the real deal. I’ll test her later, ser if she has a split personality or if she’s been using something like drugs to hide her true self. Odalys said coldly
The trick of playing the fool to catch the wise wasn’t exactly a new one.
Percival nodded slightly, watching her as she looked a bit tired. He didn’t say much more. It seemed like s she hadn’t had much sleep since last night.
This morning the head of the Tillery family reached out to me, about his daughter. Have you heard anything?” Odalys asked, steering the car
toward the Stewart Vi
The car came to as
a stop outside the gates, and she jumped d out, heading toward the mansion.
Percival followed closely behind, speaking as he walked. I’ve heard some things. Apparently, she’s been out of her mind, sometimes acting crazy. Shry seen psychiatrists and consulted with experts, but nothing’s worked”
“Some people even suspect that the Tillery family might have been cursed, doing something shady that caused the Tillery family’s stock to drop for a while. Percival added.
He did know a little about matters concerning businesses.
“He asked me to do some Star readings for him. 1 went to his house, met the girl, and found out she had been hit with a Love Spell from Sophia, which made her lose her mind.” Odalys said.
Upon hearing Sophia’s name. Percival was surprised.
It wasn’t often that Sophia meddled in such small circles.
“She actually went after the Tillery family! Percival asked, incredulous.
Normally, the Tillery and Bennen families had no ties, and there had never been any rumors about them interacting.
“The girl is a big fan of Sophia. Sophia invited her over after a wrap party and slipped something into her food. I guess she wanted to use a Love Spell to control her, make her obsessed with Sophia, and get her to hand over the Tillery family’s resources,” Odalys explained.
“Unfortunately, Harvey was more level–headed than Sophia expected. He wasn’t fooled by his daughter’s behavior and didn’t give her any mources,” Odalys added.
Percival listened carefully, his thoughts wandering to Finnin
“Love Spells come in two types. One is mutual, where both sides willingly bind themselves to each other, like Sophia and Finnian, Odalys said,
The other kind is where you just want to make someone lose their sanity, make them obsessed with you. That’s the kind of spell the girl fell under. Odalys explained.
Percival stopped walking for a moment.
“Right now, aside from the Lark family, all the other big families have had their problems, Percival said in a low voice.
Odalys shook her head. “Finnlan took action too. If I didn’t know him, he would’ve already gone after Mr. and Mrs. Lark”
Percival fell silent
Tve been upfront with Harvey and Celeste about all of this. It could lead to their family falling apart, so naturally, they’re cautious now. They’re also keeping an eye on the members of the Bennett family,“ Odalys added.
Odalys‘ words were barely out of her mouth when Percival’s phone vibrated

e probably the Tillery family,” Odalys remarked, glancing at him.
Percival picked up the call, confirming that it was Harvey on the line. He gave Odalys a nod, and seeing this, she stopped speaking to him and mude her way into the house
As she entered the living room, she spotted Evander busy in the kitchen.
“Hi Mr. Stewart,” Odalys sand, putting down her canvas bag and quickly heading toward the kitchen
When she saw Evander preparing the food, her mouth watered instinctively.
“Back already” I made some food. I heard from Dorian that you love this dish,” Evander said casually, flipping the

Odalys stood there, took a tomato and bit into it, watching the tall, strong figure of Evander, as well as Edie and Hannah’s schemes.
No wonder they still wanted to target Evander. Even though he was older now, it was clear he had been quite the handsome man in his youth.

“What’s up? Why stare at me?” Evander asked without looking up
Odalys blinked and smiled. “I think you got some luck with the ladies”
Evander Laughed heartily, clearly amused by her comment.
The atmosphere in the kitchen was light, and after finishing the food, Evander handed her some to taste.

Perhaps due to his military background, his cooking skills were impressive. He moved with ease as if every utensil in the kitchen were under his control

“Mr. Stewan, you’re back Dorian approached, addressing her. “Evander kept saying you didn’t come back last night, and that you probably didn’t eat well outside, so he decided to cook something delicious for you”
Odalys felt a little flattered. No one h
had ever cooked for her before, not even her master.
Her master had always let her fend for herself. Once she started to understand things, the only guidance she received was lessons. Other times, she was left to manage on her own.
Whenever she was hungry, she had to prepare her own meals.
There were a few times she didn’t cook things well, almost poisoning herself, but after some trial and error, she figured out what needed to be cooked thoroughly and which foods could be eaten without the risk
This independence had made her mature carber than most,
And that was why, before her time travel she longed so much for family and approval from the Bennett family. She wanted their love. Perhaps seeing how they pampered Sophia, Odalys thought if she was obedient and well–behaved, they would love her too.
Unfortunately, she was wrong. By the time she died, she hadn’t received the love she wanted.
After her time travel, she no longer craved familial love or affection. Even when she got close to others, she kept her guard up.
A sense of foggy confusion washed over her, and she instinctively wiped her eye, feeling her eyelids grow heavy. “Súly gia. Percival’s youre interrupted her thoughts.

He reached out and gently touched her head, but Odalys jumped back as if shocked by the touch. Percival’s hund anything more.
“You took the call from the Tillery family. So now they know your death was a lie,” Odalys reminded him
Percival nodded. He hadn’t planned on kreping it a secret.
The death was merely a ruse to expose those with ulterior mot
motives, like his uncle.

Tm going to the Tillery Villa tonight. If you’re interested, you can come along. Odalys said.
She was about to head upstairs when something crossed her mind.
Stopping on the stairs, she turned to look back at Percival, her gaze thoughtful, and said, “Freya’s house has a problem…
She went on to tell him everything she had found out. After hearing her. Percival remained silent.
“You figured it out already?” Odalys asked, a hint of confusion in her voice.
