“What is that old man doing here?” Callum muttered, thoroughly puzzled.
“We’ll see soon enough,” Odalys replied with a cold smile.
Inside the car, Percival sat silently. His gaze seemed to pierce through the night as if he could see everything clearly.
“It seems this villa incident is connected to him,” Percival said in a calm, deep voice.
He remained composed, analyzing the situation independently rather than being swayed by others‘ emotions.
“Connected to him? Isn’t he just a tailor specializing in custom–made clothing? This is a crime scene, Callum said, his voice l
As soon as he finished, he froze. He quickly hit the brakes, glanced back at Percival then turned to Odalys.
“Could he actually be involved in all this?” Callum’s voice trembled as he spoke.
He was stunned. Brandon had been living in isolation in a mountain village for years, and seemed every bit a victim. “Do you think we locked h

Having witnessed Odalys’s sharp intellect firsthand during a previous case, they regarded her with deep admiration.
Odalys replied softly. “Not yet. Let’s see what he does inside first. When he leaves, follow him and see if he heads to the Bennett family” The officers nodded without question, knowing Lee had instructed them to follow her lead. “Understood, they said, retreating into the shadows Odalys and Percival stepped out of the car and quietly approached the villa.

Her tone was light but confident as if everything unfolding had been part of her plan all along. Nothing seemed to surprise her.
“He hid in the mountain village, likely not only to avoid suspicion but also to profit from the chaos. He didn’t expect me to disrupt their plans, causing things to go awry. Now, he can’t get in touch with the one who died.” Odalys said, turning to meet Percival’s gaze.
Hell go to the Bennett family” Percival replied, picking up on her words. He knew this kind of person. His goals were always very clear.
“Let’s go see the dramacunfold” Odalys said softly, heading for the door,

she had expended a lot of energy, and Percival was concerned. After all, she was a woman, and if the pushed herself too hard, it could lead to physical harm.
“If you can’t handle it well head home. Since he’s been released, there’s no way he can escape, Percival said.
He was always a man who planned meticulously, with everything under his control, including this old man,
I know, but I want to watch. The Bennett family has wronged me so badly. I can’t let this slide. The more chaotic they are, the better it makes me feel And I’m no innocent flower, Odalys said with a hint of bitterness,

“Alright” Percival responded, though his eyes held a glimmer of concem for her.
She had said nothing, but through their connection, he glimpsed the p
previous timeline together, witnessing the sorrow of her life.
She was forced to jump off a building by the Bennett family, only to be mocked by them even after her death. Anyone would harbor hatred after such an injustice.
