Chapter 260
The bodyguards moved forward, pushing the crowd aside. After loading up the list of the cargo onto the truck, Callum flicked the cigarette butt from his fingers and drove off, quickly disappearing into the distance.
The truck Callum was driving prominently displayed the Stewart Group logo
Their actions dearly signaled to everyone that this was a Stewart family truck. The driver was Percival’s assistant, and the bodyguards were also from the Stewart family. They wore suits, and with sleeve garters on their arms, all emililazoned with the Stewart family logo.
These details were enough to leave the reporters stimmed. They eagerly snapped photos with their cameras and phones, chasing after the truck in an attempt to interview someone Callum, however, pressed the gas pedal to the floor.
Honestly… such reckless idiots, Callum muttered with a sense of helplessness.
Not only were the paparazzi tailing his truck, but there were also plenty of them lining the streets. For the first time, Callum truly felt what it was like to be pursued by thousands.
“Are you being watched!” Orson called in.
Callum immediately switched the call to video mode. Upon seeing the throng of people trailing Callum, Orson swore loudly. “Damn,” and hung up the phone.
Morning light poured in through the window.
It was rare for Odalys to sleep in. She lay on her side in bed, watching the sunlight filtering through the floor–to–ceiling windows. After a long pause. she reached for her phone and saw numerous missed calls.
“Firya, what’s going on?” Odalys returned the call
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line before Freya’s voice, quieter than usual, responded. “Are you okay?”
Tm fine.” Odalys said, confused.
She quickly got out of bed, clearly puzzled by Freya’s words,
“I saw the trending topic, Freya continued softly. “Odalys, the Stewart family situation is a bit complicated. Don’t trust saying”

“Freya, when dad you become so cautious?” she teased, making her way toward the bathroom. “Want to com
to come by my studio later!”
Odalys sat down, resting her face against her knees, and let out a laugh.
“Really Where Send me the location. Freya responded, suddenly animated, almost eager to meet.
“Surr. Odalys replied quietly.
After getting ready, Odalys opened her wardrobe and picked out a pair of camouflage cargo pants, pairing them with a white T–shirt. She slipped. into her black combat boots and walked down the stairs with a sharp, contudent strisle.
“Mrs. Stewart, you’re awake?” Dorian was downstairs, tidying up-

Mr Stewart had to leave early at six this morning for something. He specifically told us to make sure you ate breakfast before going out. He’s worried you might skija ar and acllaffect your health, Dorian explained, the gleam in his eyes impossible to miss. Odalys fell silent
She had been abon to grab the car keys and leave right then.
“Alright, 111 luve a linde something” Oilalys said, setting the car keys aside.

The servant unmediately brought in a lavish breakfast, filling the entire table. After finishing her meal. Odalys grabbed the car keys and headed out, driving toward the company……..
Susistently, the car ahead slammed on its brakes. Startled, Odalys quickly swerved the wheel to avoid a collision.
Odalys rolled down the car window, faintly hearing the conversation from the car next to hers. She wasn’t fond of gossip about Star readings, but since they were talking about the Stewart family, she instinctively turned her head to listen.
“Did you hear! Mr. Stewart’s mother was apparently hit on the head. She was rushed to the hospital by ambulance last night, one of the voices said.
“That’s nonsense. How could that be? She must have been so heartbroken over her son’s death that she fell down the stairs and hit her head. another voice responded.
Paparazzi caught her being pulled out of the Stewart Villa by ambulance in the middle of the night. Looks like Mr. Stewart must have really passed
away, someone else added.
I wonder what the Bennett family is up to. I’ve heard whispers that the Bennett family’s daughter married Mr. Stewart. Now, the only ones tied to the Stewart family are the Bennen Group, right!”
“Are you saying the Bennett family is going to make a comeback?
“That’s what I think. The Bennell Group was on the brink of collapse. With Mr. Stewart gone, all that wealth is obviously going to go to his wife.” “His wife Sophia, right? I heard she was in a hotel with Finnian recently. And she’s been involved with all those men on that variety show” “Exactly. After all with Mr. Stewart likely dead, he must have been too weak. She couldn’t help but feel lonely.”
As they discussed these, other drivers quickly got
got out of their cars, lit cigarettes, and stood nearby, occasionally chiming in with their gossip. Most of them were businesspeople. They pretended to be interested in the gossip but were really trying to gather useful information for their own benefit
Odalys couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
Last night, Edie had been struck on the head by a brick thrown by Evander. Odalys never imagined the situation would be twisted into something so glamorous
After the car in front of her pulled away, Odalys slammed her foot down on the gas pedal,

She drove to Cloushine Zone One, an area in the east of the city, more isolated and quiet than the rest. The area was mostly villas, and she had rented the first shop there.
The sign for Magic Entertainment was proudly displayed, gleaming brightly.
On either side of the shop were flower arrangements. From a distance, Odalys spotted Selah and Francis, dressed casually, holding confetti cantions. As soon as they saw Odalys get out of the car, they quickly walked over to greet her,
“Odalys, don’t you think this is a bit too low–key? I thought this was a company, but it’s just a store? Selah asked
nervously.
Francis took off has sunglasses, his expression much lighter than before. Perhaps with the danger now behind him and no more contractual restraints, he had been able to sleep better and felt more energized.
“Yeah, it’s just for Star readings. No need to be so big: Odalys said with a smile,
Running a Star readings business and opening a shop was a luxury. She lua considered just setting up a stall, but for long–term growth, she decided a store would be the better choice
So what should we do now? Selah asked
Just as she spoke, a Ferrari sped toward them, its engine roaring, Freya, wearing shorts and a loose cop, holding a bouquet of flowers, jumped out of
“I ordered some decorations. They’ll be delivered soon. Odalys, congratulations on your store opening? Freya said, panting.
She walked up to Odalys and handed her the flowers, watching as dalys held out the confetti cast,
“Go ahead, let’s set off the confetti canton, Odalys whispered.
Bang! In front of Magic Entertainment, the previously quiet street suddenly erupted into noise. Many passersby instinctively turned their heads to look.

[Magic Entertainment is now open. Enjoy free Star readings three times every day. Come on down!] Odalys posted on Twitter, attaching a photo she had taken when she got out of the car.
“I’m in Selah said, seeing the post.
