Chapter 23
With a smack, Odalys jerked her arm away from Finnian, taking two steps back with a look of disgust.
Finnian watched her face, his chest heaving as he clenched his teeth and spoke in a low voice. “Ill come for you tonight. You’d better explain yourself”
Before he finished, Drake stepped forward and stood in front of Odalys.
“Finnian, you’re part of Group A and Odalys is in my Group B. There’s no conflict between you two. Now, as a man, you’re laying hands on a woman in public. What do you think you’re doing?” Drake interrogated sternly.
He emphasized the different groups they belonged to and hinted that Finnian was bullying a woman.
His words instantly woke Finnian up, who looked at him in surprise, not expecting to have drawn him in.
After all, everyone
in the circle knew that Stellan had someone backing him. If you wanted to get by in the industry, you’d better show him some respect, or else be prepared for a ban
Before he could speak. Freaya rushed over. Tinnian, you’ve gone too far! Your member took the cave Odalys found first, and we gave it to you. Bur now you want to start a fight” Freya shouted, rolling up her sleeves, ready to make a big scene.
Seeing this, Selah stepped forward to support Odalys, whispering, “Odalys, maybe we should leave first
Odalys, seeing her worried eyes, smiled softly at her and then said, “Finnian, I made it clear to you over the phone when you warned me before. Now that you want to cause a misunderstanding, let’s just address the issue openly.
Finnian’s face changed drastically at her words.
He hadn’t anticipated that Odalys would be so reckless. If she directly confronted him, he would expose the fact that she had taken Sophia’s place fo marry into the Stewart family.
Once the matter was known to the public, Odalys would be thrust into the limelight. Moreover, if her marriage with the Stewart family got out, whether within the circle or among those present, everyone would undoubtedly treat her with utmost respect.
The Stewart family wielded immense power; no one dared to scheme behind their backs, let alone Finnian.
Plus, he kept pestering Odalys because he was unwilling to let her go, but more so, he was afraid. If Odalys managed to secure her position as Mrs. Stewart, the consequences would be unimaginable.
So, he planned to brainwash her and manipulate her into subconsciously believing that marrying him was the perfect choice. If something happened to the Stewart family, she might be able to use their power to pave his way.
That was his secret selfish motive.
I’m so sorry. Finnian must have just been scared by the snake and was disoriented. He just thought you could kill snakes, so he wanted to…” Sophia’s face turned pale.
She rushed forward, bowing deeply to everyone, her tears almost spilling out in her anxiety.
Finnian coercing Odalys with his love was also her idea.
Not only did she want to be the only heiress of the Bennett family, but she also aimed to constantly torment and coerce Odalys, driving her to th brink of collapse.
So, the marriage was just the first step. Now that Odalys had married into the Steward family in her place, she would gradually entice Finnian into luring Odalys. Then, she would manipulate the Stewart family into discovering her moral corruption, utilizing their influence to eliminate her. Unexpectedly. Finnian was s
was so impatient that he almost ruined her plans.
“Finnian, get out of here, Sophia urged, pushing Finnian along
Finnian was reluctant. His plans were unknown to Odalys, who had already avoided him, which made him uneasy
“Sorry.” But being put in the limelight, he had no choice but to apologize.
Odalys let out a cold chuckle, pulling Freya and Stellan aside. Then, She strode forward in front of Finnian and Sophia.
“I don’t accept your
your apology! And what’s his relationship with you! He harassed me, and you are actually apologizing for him. It seems like M

Bennett and him are quite close, aren’t you?” Odalys said in a low voice.
Hearing this, Finnian involuntarily clenched his hands. The anger in his eyes flared up again, his lips moved, and he turned to leave.
“You didn’t say no, so are you agreeing? How about I share with everyone about you threatening me over the phone?” Odalys’s voice was clear. prompting everyone present to immediately perk up their cars.
Sophia’s smile was a bit strained as she bit her lip and glared at Odalys’s triumphant expression. A surge of resentment welled up within her.
Why is Odalys so beautiful even without makeup? Her skin is flawless, she cursed inwardly
“Odalys, we’ve already apologized. What do you want?” Sophia said in a lowered voice
Ignoring her, Odalys walked up to the photographer and greeted the livestream audience. “You all sawit. I didn’t provoke Finnian, but he suddenly wanted to lay hands on me”
As she spoke, she rassed her wrist, displaying the scratches on it to the screen.
“I suggest Finnian’s fans restrain themselves and stop cursing! Dig up if he has any dark past first. Once he gets me riled up… I can’t guarantee whether my revelations will ruin him. Odalys said word by word.
With nothing to lose, she wasn’t afraid of the threats from these people.
She merely wanted to settle the score with the Bennett family once and for all on the variety show. When the show ended, her contract would expire.
Atlas said he would offer her a full–time position then, trying to tempt her with this, but she just wanted to get rid of the Bennett family. If they refused to make things easier for her, she wouldn’t mind dragging them down with her.
[What’s going on? Does Odalys know some dark
k past of Finnian!]
[Look at Finnian’s back, doesn’t it seem familiar? Why does it look so much like that jerk from last night? Could it be that he was the one who got hit with ice cream last night‘]
[Damn, this is so much! Come on, are there any paparazzi online? Dig it up right now. I want the gossip.]
[Does Odalys have a problem! She gets all worked up just because he pulled her wrist? So petty.
[Poor Sophia even gets attacked when trying to mediate a fight. Is Odalys crazy“]
[Wow! Stellan and Freya are so protective. Look how they stood in front of Odalys. This is what I call camaraderie.
[Where’s the paparazzi! Give u
us some explosive news right now.]
As the heated drama between Odalys and Finnian unfolded, the comment section in the livestream was nearly overwhelmed. It came as a surprise that Odalys would address the camera head–on, which was clear that she was ready to tear Finnian apart.
Many were puzzled as to how she could possibly know any dark past of Finnian. After all, she was just an extra.
Because the variety show had been heavily promoted before it aired, bolstered by its investors, it garnered widespread publicity and attracted countless fans online. The viewers watching the livestream had already reached millions.
“Dig it up! I wa
want to see what dark past there is on Finnian,” the paparazzi exclaimed excitedly, itching to make a big move,
