Chapter 502
ercival wanted to refute Freya’s advice, but he knew she was right.
However, he knew that he couldn’t rush things. He wasn’t trying to take advantage of Odalys just yet. Plus, he had heard her say that she might die I she lost herself at the junction of energy.
since then, he had already made up his mind to protect her, even if they never took things further.
Odalys’s thoughts are quite simple, and after being stabbed in the back earlier, she’s understandably upset. Don’t be fooled by how she acts like she doesn’t care. Women need to be comforted. Freya said.
She added, “In simple terms, it’s about emotional value. You can’t keep treating her like this, right? You need to take the initiative.”
Percival actually didn’t refute her. Instead, he listened attentively to what she had to say.
Freya continued. “For example, you should hold her hand casually when you walk together. If she doesn’t pull away, you’re in.
“Then, occasionally take her out shopping, do things she enjoys, even ask her if she wants to go see a movie to relax. Take her out to do things she wouldn’t normally do
She added, “Also, make her feel like you occupy her time! Leave your mark on her life so that when you’re not around, she’ll think of you automatically
“Capture her heart! Make her fall for you!” Freya finished with a wink, exaggerating her actions
Upon hearing this, Percival’s expression darkened instantly
How do you know so much at such a young age?” asked Percival.
“After all, Freya was his nominal sister. There was no way he would allow some random man to take advantage of her. His sister was not someone who could be easily tricked by men.
“It’s the script I spend all my time immersed in scripts. Filming a TV show is like dating, watching a movie is like dating! I’m already a veteran, so I don’t need to date anyone at this point!” Freya replied, a little smugly
“After speaking, she waved at him and quickly ran back into the trailer.
Percival was about to follow but was interrupted when his phone vibrated. Seeing the incoming call, he stepped aside to take the call
Callum reported. “Mr. Stewart, Oliver has already arrived at Bennett Villa. However, the old man from the century–old tailor shop has been inside since last night and hasn’t left. 1 just observed from a distance”
“He added. “He’s staying in Hannah’s room, and Windsor discovered it, mistakenly thinking they were having an affair! Hannah seems very afraid of this old man and hasn’t resisted the abuse.”
“The three Bennett brothers have just driven back to the villa. Do you need me to assist them?” Callum asked.
Percival continued to speak on the phone, his tall figure standing under the sunlight, exuding an aura so powerful that several actors instinctively glanced his way, and some bold women even tried to approach him.
Percival replied, “No need. Stay safe. Don’t alert them yet. They’re likely gathering to target Odalys. The Bennett family is at their wits end.”
“Keep an eye on who else they’re in contact with besides Oliver. Focus on finding out who Windsor and Hannah are aligning with. Look into who was behind abandoning Odalys years ago. That person is crucial, Percival instructed.
Callum nodded, understanding his instructions
“Got it. I’ll stay hidden and adapt as needed.” Callum responded.
Percival still didn’t feel completely at ease, so he reiterated, “If you sense any danger, retreat immediately”
Yes Callum replied and hung up the phone.”
As Percival turned around to go back to his trailer, he saw two tall women walking towards him. They greeted him with bright smiles and asked, “Are you here for filming too!”

Chapter 502
“Excuse me, can we exchange numbers?”
Taking the initiative, they had spotted him from afar, observing his extraordinary temperament. They knew he was wealthy.
“His presence at such an event without a costume implied he was either an investor or a wealthy heir looking for opportunities.
Percival noticed their approach, and a flicker of displeasure crossed his eyes.
“I’m sorry, I’m married, Percival said coldly.
Refusing to give t
them another chance to engage him, he walked past them and strode into his trailer.
“They watched as Percival got into the car and stared at the license plate for a while. “Isn’t this Freya’s car? Could she be secretly married? There were rumors before that she had someone backing her, that no one in the industry dared to take advantage of her.”
“You can’t be serious. How could such a handsome man fall for her? Is she his sugar baby?” The woman continued
Before they could finish their speculation, Percival came out of the trailer, his tall figure standing with an imposing presence. He stared at them coldly.
“I dare you talk more nonsense again.” Percival’s icy voice came, devoid of any wannth. The women immediately shrank back, their eyes shifting nervously, unable to look him in the eye.
“If you want to ruin your career in this industry, feel free to keep spreading rumors. But you’ll have to deal with the consequences, Percival threatened coldly, slamming the trailer door shut.
The two women were scared witless.
Just now, Percival’s aura was so powerful that they could hardly breathe.
They had encountered wealthy people in this industry before, but none of them had the forceful aura he exuded. It was clear that he wasn’t just wealthy. He was someone powerful.
“I didn’t say anything,” one of the women stammered, hurriedly running off.
“Inside the trailer, Percival could hear Freya’s angry voice. “That woman has no self–awareness! She killed her son and then tried to blame you.” “Odalys, I just saw the livestream. It seems like she’s dead! Some people are saying she fell and was impaled, Selah said in disbelief.
It was a case of karmic retribution.
“She was bound to face calamity. I warned her during the live session today. Don’t be blinded by money! Money is her downfall. Everyone’s fate is already determined, and greed only leads to ruin,” Odalys replied, her voice tinged with regret.
Odalys continued, “She was destined for a tough life at first, but if she had given her son’s life back, she would have had smooth sailing ahead. Her son was born with a fortune that would benefit her, but unfortunately, she chose money over her son.”
It was hard not to feel some sorrow, but everyone had their own choices. Greed only led to a dead end.
“What will happen to her brother–in–law’s child? This woman’s son is dead, and he had no one to borrow life force, Selah asked curiously,
Francis and Stellan also listened quietly, wanting to know the result.
“The child was never meant to live. He was supposed to have died at birth, but he survived for many years, living with a borrowed life that wasn’t his. His body can’t handle it,” Odalys explained.
“Now
