Chapter 541
They returned after a short detour
They saw Dorian setting breakfast on the dining table. Orson was also in the kitchen, washing and cutting fruit, which he then brought to the table.
“You’re back! No wonder you all like to eat at home. The Stewart family’s breakfast is quite a spread. It’s not like my family, where we have bread. and coffee every day.” Orson remarked,
He rarely had breakfast at the Stewart Villa, He had an eye–opening experience today.
There was fragrant spaghetti with sloppy Joe, salad, pickled cucumber, spicy lamb chops, lobster meat with salt and pepper, beef with chili peppers, beef with broccoli, oatmeal and sandwiches.
These dishes, though seemingly ordinary, were a feast for the senses. He couldn’t help but swallow his saliva.
As a medical family, the Lark family prioritized hygiene, lightness, and simplicity in their meals. Sometimes, when surgeries or other medical emergencies arose, time was of the essence, so the Lark family’s meals were generally simple.
Although the food on the Stewart family table was homemade, it was very appetizing
He was drooling over it. This abundant breakfast whetted his appetite.
“I’m lucky to be eating with Odalys. I usually don’t get this kind of treatment. Donan prepared this feast for her, and I’m simply joining the meal,” Percival said playfully.
Orson immediately ran forward and pulled a chair out for Odalys, inviting her to sit
“Odalys. I’m going to join the meal today. I’m sure I’ll love this breakfast. I love this one, this one, and this one,” Orson said smugly.
Evander shook his head when he heard that.
Orson was lively and talkative, in stark contrast to Percival Percival was calm, taciturn, and steady, but lacked Orson’s liveliness.
Then you should have more. Odalys also smiled.
Percival picked up the plate and served her spaghetti.
“Thank you” Odalys took the fork he handed her.
Breakfast was a lavish spread, and she loved all the dishes. Dorian had prepared the meal according to her taste. Everyone else enjoyed the meal as well.
After breakfast, Percival led her to the rooms behind the Stewart Villa.
It was a row of villas. The decoration was low–key but luxurious, and bodyguards guarded the outside.
“Mr. Stewart. Mrs. Stewart. The bodyguards saw them and hurriedly greeted them respectfully.
Percival nodded to them, gesturing for them to leave and rest. Then, he pushed the door open and entered.
From afar, they saw a figure lying on the bed in the luxurious room. Callum was sleeping soundly and had not woken up yet. The room was filled with the smell of medicine.
Callum’s brows were furrowed as if he was struggling to wake up but couldn’t.
“Let me take a look.” Odalys stepped forward.
She checked Callum’s pulse and felt the heat of his body.
After a while, she withdrew her hand and said, “His injuries are serious, and he has been frightened, which has caused him to remain in a coma. I’ll prescribe some medicine for him, and his fever should be able to subside in about half an hour.
“After his fever subsides, light some herbs in the room, leave the windows open, and see how he does.” Odalys said.
She took the paper and pen from the side, quickly wrote down the prescription, and handed it over.
Orson dared not ask any more questions and immediately went to get the medicine.
The entire Stewart family’s medicine room was opened for him. Orson quickly grabbed the medicine, brewed it, and fed it to Callum.
After examining the other bodyguards‘ injuries, Odalys also prescribed medicine for them.
After dut, Orson, who had it the herb in Callum’s room, walked to her happily. He said, “Odalys, Callum’s fever has subsided.
“It’s not that bad now,” Orson added
Odalys nodded and was about to speak when Orson’s phone vibrated. He quickly answered the call, his expression turning darker.
After hanging up the phone. Orson wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and strode toward her
“Odalys,” Orson said with a heavy heart.
Odalys frommed slightly and looked at him subconsciously, but she didn’t say anything and waited for him to continue.
Orson was silent for a while before he said. “After putting Sophia and Henry together and sending them to the operating room. I kept her blood and other samples. Remember?
Tve been studying it, and the results just came out. Sophia’s bone age is more than 20 years old,” Orson said, his voice tinged with fear.
Sophia’s bone age wasn’t 20 years old, but she was 20 years old.
She and Odalys were born in the same year. After Odalys was abandoned, the Bennett family adopted and raised her. Everyone was very puzzled by this behavior at that time, but they thought it might be because the parents were so sad after their child went missing that they found a child of the same age and adopted her.
Unexpectedly, there was something shy about it
“I know.” Odalys said.
Orson’s words stuck in his throat, and he looked at her in horror.
“You know that? You found out that Sophia wasn’t 20 years old? Orson was startled.
He wondered, “Isn’t this plastic surgery?
However, even though plastic surgery was common, it was not practical to have it done from childhood. The wealthy ladies of Crownridge all hung out together, and any gossip spread like wildfire
Yet, no one had ever mentioned Sophia getting plastic surgery,
“As I said before, her face was reshaped through dermabrasion and bone shaving when she was young. She even had a skin graft. When her fortune declined, her face became sallow. It was as if she had aged by more than ten years.
“Everything about her is a facade. She needs her fortune to maintain her beauty. Not just her face, but her body too.
“Someone like her can’t get pregnant. If she did, the fetus would absorb her nutrients. It would cause her to age rapidly and reveal her original form. However, she’s likely unaware of this.
“She’s obsessed with stealing other people’s fortune, so she must know that fortune can maintain her appearance Odalys explained.
Percival had heard her mention this before, so he wasn’t too surprised.
“But the bone age the test showed couldn’t determine her exact age. It only showed that she was old” Orson said, wiping away cold sweat.
Now, if he saw Sophia again, he would run immediately.
He felt that she was very strange, like a monster
“That’s only right that you can’t see it. It wasn’t meant to be visible. Odalys smiled.
She wasn’t pressured or burdened by this at all.
“No wonder she looked younger and prettier when she went back after hurting Atlas that day and getting his heart’s blood. So that’s how she did it,” Orson was a little stunned, but he quickly cleared his mind.
“The Love Spell worked with Atlas’s heart’s blood, but it can only be used once. That’s why Atlas didn’t react when she burned the Love Spell in the room Odalys continued to explain.
Percival followed her quietly. He listened to her politely and patiently without interrupting.
