Chapter 134
“Orson seemed to be worried that Henry would catch up to him. He turned and ran, leaving Henry standing there, stunned.
“They had thought through many possible outcomes but never imagined that Sophia could get pregnant after marrying, allowing her to take control of all the assets
“At that time, their main concern had been whether Sophia would end up a widow, not that Odalys would gain the upper hand.
Henry was in a panic. “What should I do! No, I have to expose this. I’ll make Odalys go back. I can’t let her have the upper hand. I need to make sure Sophia marries Mr. Stewart.
““If that doesn’t work, then we’ll have to force Odalys to go back to the Bennett family and reveal her true identity.””

“Orson turned and walked away. After getting into his car, he picked up his phone and made a call.
“Orson spoke smugly. “Hello, I set a trap for Henry. I told him the Stewart family is very wealthy and mentioned that I gave Odalys the land in the East District. I also told him that after you get married, the whole Stewart family will belong to Odalys.
Henry may think duar Odalys will easily obtain the things he can’t get now. I’m just waiting for him to bring that news back to the Bennett family.
***Then, the Bennett family members will regret it deeply. I can’t wait to see them begging Odalys. I can already imagine how they’ll be apologizing to her. Don’t you find that satisfying?**
“Percival,
however, remained silent after hearing Orson’s words.
“With a sharp click. Percival hung up the phone without saying a word.
***Hey. You hung up on me like that? That’s too much. Really, you’re not being thoughtful at all. If it weren’t for Odalys marrying you, you’d never have a chance to get married,” Onon said, staring at the phone in disbelief
‘It was like his efforts were in vain. Percival didn’t even say a kind word, which left Orson frustrated.
a good impression of him.
Traditional medicine Orson thought to himself, his large hands rubbing together as he felt an overwhelming sense of longing.
Traditional medicine was the top of the medical field. Many of the techniques had been lost over time. For Orson, Odalys‘ expertise was like a ceiling he couldn’t break through.
Henry, on the other hand, had no idea what Orson was thinking. He turned and walked back, making a call. “Check when the live broadcast of the variety show enda”
“Mom, Henry said as he held the phone and walked toward the VIP ward.
He repeated Orson’s words to Hannah, who had just undergone surgery. Hannah, shocked and angered, coughed up blood and fainted once more.
“A dusk settled, the village was eerily quiet. Usually, not many people moved about, let alone after dark.
“Odalys had finished cooking and was eating happily. In the next room, Sophia looked at the warm atmosphere around them, feeling jealous that no one seemed to care about her.
“Sophia, how about we go get something to eat?” Atlas couldn’t hold back any longer. He was starving-

moment, Atlas couldn’t understand why Sophia was upset.
There was food over with Group B, the ones who had braved the rain to find some. If Atlas and Sophia had gone earlier, they would have had a miral by now, but Sophia kept causing a scene. Atlas was starting to feel frustrated.
“Are you blaming me?” Sophia looked at Atlas, her eyes wide with

“In the past, Atlas had always pampered Sophia. No matter what happened, he would unconditionally stand by her side. But now, just because of a hit of food, he was giving her the cold shoulder.
***I just think if

He was in pain all over, especially from the slap Odalys had given him. Atlas didn’t even care to look at himself in the mirror. Even if there were Wi–Fi, he wouldn’t dare to surf the Internet and read these mocking posts.

He knew he’d be bombarded with hateful comments. If this kept up, his career in the entertainment industry would be over.
***If you want to go, just go on your own. I’m not hungry,” Sophia said as she turned her back to Atlas.
“Sophia thought he would come over and comfort her, but unexpectedly, Atlas turned and walked out, disappearing from her view in no time.
How can you do this?” Sophia was left in shock.
“Her face, which had been delicately made up, was now filled with astonishment.
“She stared at the direction in which Atlas had gone, unable to bring herself to chase after him. All she could do was stamp her feet in frustration.
“At that moment, Freya walked over, holding a plate full of shrimp, pan–seared fish, grilled mushrooms, and other dishes, piled high.
***Freya, do you want some soup?” Odalys voice called our
“Freya walked toward Sophia, carrying the plate.
“Stopping not far from Sophia, Freya elegantly picked at the food as she turned her head and said, “Sure. Leave me some
***The shrimp are really good, Odalys. Do you think we could have this again tomorrow Freya shouted across, munching as she carried the plate closer.
“Freya came
up to Sophia, who was standing still, and gave her a puzzled look. “Aren’t you eating!”
“Sorry, I forgot you don’t like to eat.” Freya added with a smile, walking a couple of circles in front of Sophia in front of her.
Sophia with the plate before standing right
*Sophia stared intently at Freya’s plate and saw the delicious–smelling food. She couldn’t understand why Odalys was able to make such good dishes in this rural setting.
“Sophla instinctively swallowed and her stomach let out an audible growl.
***Huh, are you hungry! I thought you were on a diet. If you’re hungry, why not go find something to eat Freya asked, her expression full of fake innocence, as though she were genuinely curious.
“In truth, every word was a jab to the heart. Freya knew very well that Sophia was being pretentious and unwilling to lower herself to go find food, so she had brought the meal over to tempt her.

“Sophia understood Freya’s intentions, but she still forced a smile and quietly s
said. “I really don’t feel like eating.
***Hey, I almost forgot. Odalys, you made some potherb, right? I forgot to grab some,” Freya suddenly said as if suddenly remembering something.
“She rushed over with the plate, calling out. “I need some potherb!“”
“I saved you some,” Odalys responded softly, a knowing smile playing on her lips.
“Odalys was well aware that Freya was intentionally trying to provoke Sophia, but she didn’t call Freya out
“Odalys placed the potherb right in front of Freya, while Selah and Stellan remained silent, exchanging a glance.
“““Do you think I’ve gained weight?” Selah suddenly asked, putting out her stomach and gently patting it.
“Her once flat stomach was now gone. She had eaten so much that her belly had grown round.
No way! Freya replied, shocked. She quickly set down her utensils, rubbed her own stomach, and gasped.
“Well, I’ll be damned. My stomach is definitely sticking out too. If my agent saw this, she’d probably scold me badly.” Freya muttered quietly.
