Chapter 561
Unfortunately, not only was Finnian an illegitimate child, but he was also an ingrate.
“Ring” At this moment. Percival’s phone vibrated.
The rain had quietly stopped. Since it was no longer raining. Percival put away his umbrella, handed it to Orson, and then answered the phone.
He was a little surprised to hear what the other party said and subconsciously turned to look at Odalys.
“Why are you looking at me?” Odalys muttered in confusion.
Orson was also curious
After Percival hang up the phone, the two pricked up their ears, waiting for him to speak,
Percival said, “Sophia had just been kicked out of the cab. After she vomited blood and collapsed, Henry came forward and wanted to take her away. Unexpectedly, things took a turn, Sophia suddenly recovered
“She pinned Henry down, and it seemed like she drugged him. Afterward, she sold him to a nightclub.” Percival’s Adam’s apple bobbed. Obviously, he also found this matter unbelievable. The dignified CEO of the Bennett Group had been sold by Sophia to a nightclub as a gigolo.
“Damn, that’s crary Onson jumped up in fright. He thought he had heard wrong.
“Would anyone in Crownridge dare to take Henry in as a gigolo? Even if the Bennett family goes bankrupt, he’s still the eldest son of the Bennett family” Orson said, puzzled.
Percival laughed hoarsely and said. “Sophia claimed Henry was willing to work there as a gigolo because the Bennett family had gone bankrupt, and hoped that the nightclub would give him a chance.”
Then, he continued in disbelief, “And Henry agreed, so Sophia sold him for 30 thousand dollars.”
Odalys fell silent
“Odalys, is there something wrong?” Percival asked after he finished speaking. He looked at her expression; something was clearly not right.
Odalys shook her head and said softly, “Maybe I’m reading too much into it Logically speaking, Sophia’s current physical condition isn’t good, making it impossible to activate what’s in her body.
“However, you mentioned that after she vomited blood and collapsed she suddenly returned to normal. I feel like something in her has been awakened, and I hope it’s not what I think it is.”
Onson rubbed his wrists, apparently eager. At this moment, he couldn’t wait to drive to the nightclub and see Henry being auctioned off to a rich woman. The thought of it excited him.
“But why would Henry agree to be a gigolo?” Orson was puzzled. No one would agree to that
“He was drugged. You could also say that he was bewitched and didn’t know what he was doing. He probably does whatever Sophia says: Odalys explained
It was hard to imagine if Henry would break down after he woke up.
“Henry had an affair with Edie, and now he has become a gigolo. It seems Henry’s life is quite interesting. I just wonder about Edie’s reaction after she learns about it,” Orson said, amused by his own words
Odalys remained sillent.
“King
ring” A that moment, hier phone vibrated. It was an unknown number, so she didn’t answer it.
In the distance, a police officer walked towards them, nodded respectfully to Percival, and then said to Odalys. “Ms. Stone, an accident happened in the suburla. Alter Lee clused the enemy into the woods, he encountered a mudslide. I fear the worst”
This was basically consistent with what Percival had just salt.
Odalys was silent. She tried to make a divination, but in failed to shed light on Lee’s situation. Everything remained unknown.
Sometimes, this signified nothing, or that nothing had happened, but it also could mean death. It should have been easy to distinguish, but now even she didn’t know what was going on. She couldn’t foretell anything at all.

“Let’s check it out,” Odalys said.
Percival quickly got into the car and drove her towards the outskirts
Orson was sitting in the back seat, plugging his phone into the charger. As he was charging it, he saw lightning flashing in the distance. With a loud boom, it sounded like something had been struck.
Surtled, he turned his head to look outside. It was pitch black, with dark clouds covering the sky as if it were about to collapse.
“Percival, call everyone to come back. There’s going to be a flood, Odalys said, her voice trembling slightly.
Upon hearing this, Percival slammed on the brakes and quickly sent a message before making a phone call.
Soon, the Stewart family’s bodyguards and the police officers all drove back spuickly. Odalys sat in the passenger’s seat, enveloped by darkness “Let’s go back Odalys said.
As soon as she spoke. Percival hit the gas and headed back towards Crownridge. Okay Percival responded quickly.
Orson stared at his phone. He soon received the latest news and exclaimed in disbelief, “Why would the river embankment suddenly explode Damn it, how many people are going to die?”
Odalys clenched her hands into fists, her charming eyes fixed straight ahead.
The police car sped back, surrounded by darkness.
It was afternoon, but it was too dark to see the surroundings. As Odalys sank into thought, she felt a burning sensation in her hand. She hurriedly opened her canvas bag.
She saw the ring inside flashing red, the burning touch a constant pain on her skin.
“Percival, stop the car, Odalys exclained.
This ring was given to her by a major general who returned from the battlefield during the Republican era. After she assisted him to get to the afterlife, he left the ring to her, which still held his aura,
Odalys rarely felt his presence at ordinary times, but now the ring was sending out a signal. There must be something he wanted nearby. Odalys’s heart trembled.
“Odalys, if the flood is really coming, you will be in danger here: Percival said in a low voice.
But Odalys resolutely unfastened her seat belt, looked up into his deep brown eyes, and said calmly and rationally, I promised him that I would help him take care of everything. A person should keep their word. Resides, I have a charmed life. Don’t worry, nothing will happen to me.”
She pushed open the car door and jumped out.
Percival watched from the driver’s seat as she turned and walked away in the direction where the others retreated with purposeful strides and without a backward glance.
She appeared resolute Orson, sitting in the back seat, turned to look at her retreating figure.
“Percival, what important business does Odalys have to attend to? Orson asked in disbelief.
Percival didn’t answer but gripped the steering wheel tightly. Then, be stepped on the gas pedal, speeding away in the Cayenne, widening the distance between himself and Odalys.
the rearview mirror.
It was as if the two of them were on opposite ends of a balance beam, walking further and further apart until her figure disappeared from view in
