Chapter 472
Chapter 472 As Odalys finished speaking a low , magnetic voice suddenly interrupted her thoughts , sending a chill down her spine .
Was it him who tricked the Bennett family into abandoning you and adopting Sophia Percivals voice was low and measured , but it carried an undeniable weight .
Odalys looked up , startled She hadnt expected Percival to make his presence known so soon .
Earlier , hed been standing near the tree , observing with a calm , almost aloof Jemeanor , but now he was casually leaning against the same tree branch beside her .
The shadows from the leaves concealed the three of them , so had not been noticed Hmm , that doesnt quite add up , though .
When the Bennett family came to consult him , they seemed unfamiliar with him , Orson scratched his head in confusion .
His mind had been in overdrive lately , trying to piece everything together , but now it was starting to feel like his brain wasnt quite keeping up Its possible he used a false identity .
The more mysterious he is , the more power he has , Percivall offered with a knowing lone Orson paused .
The more mysterious someone was , the more they could manipulate .
Money could be made off of their ambiguity .
True or false , the truth will eventually reveal itself .
We dont need to worry about it , Odalys said , her voice calm and authoritative .
She pulled out her phone and sent a quick message to the producer before turning around and gracefully jumping down from the tree .
Percival and Onion followed closely behind her .
The three of them moved silently , slipping out of the alley unnoticed .
Inside the quadrangle courtyards , the producer stood , his face a mask of fury .
He watched Oliver , who was now waving his wand dramatically , his expression one of sorrow and desperation .
The producer could barely control his urge to kick Oliver into the din .
How dare you listen to others and doubt me ? If you hadnt asked me to be your godfather , do you think I would have helped you ? Im the one who performed the ritual that made you pregnant Olivers voice rang out in self pity .
The producers phone buzzed in his hand , and he glanced down , reading the message .
His i and flinging it at Oliver .
eyes narrowed .
He turned , grabbing a handful of dirt ours , he To hell with your godfather status ! Today , my wife and I are cutting all ties with you .
From now on , you take your path , and well take our med , his voice filled with contempt .
Spit on him ! Spit on him ! he shouted , pushing his wife forward .
The woman , already panicked , froze in confusion but quickly joined in , spitting at Oliver as well .
Thats it ! Im done with you , godfather ! Our relationship is over , she cried , her voice a mix of anger and fear Oliver stood there , stunned , his face covered in their spit .
The shock rendered him speechless as the producer and his wife turned on their heels and walked away , leaving him behind .
Ugh , my face ! Oliver groaned in pain , instinctively clutching his face as he stumbled back .
He almost got bitten again by the cursed imprint .
He stared helplessly at the empty c courtyard .
his carefully built energy field shattered .
er had thrown dirt at him , spat on him an overt display of disdain , but in its absurdity , it was even more malicious .
The producer Then , suddenly , a wave of something sinister washed over him .
His chest tightened , and without warning , a torrent of blood burst from his mouth .
His body convulsed violently as if something inside him was being ripped away .
Oliver let out a piercing scream , his voice echoing through the empty courtyard .
Blood continued to seep from the corners of his mouth , his face contorted with pain , and his entire body was wracked with spasms .
It felt as if his very essence was being sucked dry .
And then , in the deafening silence , he heard a childs voice .
Faint and distant , but it sounded as if it were coming from his own skin .
It was a chilling whisper , carried by the echoes of his screamı .
1/3 7:38 AM c d Chapter 472 What … what is happening ? Is this is this backlash ! No , it cant be ! Ive controlled the childs soul , turned it into a painting and sold it to them .
They hang it above their bed .
As long as she keeps losing blood , the childs soul will be able to enter her womb .
Whether she miscarries or the child dies young , its all part of the plan to create the ghost baby , Oliver muttered to himself in horror .
But no one knew about my plan … How could it suddenly backfire like this ! Why are they reversing everything today ? Why are they suddenly rejecting me as godfather ! His voice trembled with panic as he tried to make sense of the unfolding disaster .
Then , as if a bolt of realization struck him , his eyes widened .
He could feel it the destruction of his carefully laid plans , the unraveling of everything he had worked for .
Who ruined my plan ? Who in Crownridge could have seen through it ? How did they destroy my spell so easily ? His breath caught in his throat .
The painting … it must have been destroyed .
The childs soul … is this the bite mark on my face ! Had his own actions come back to haunt him so quickly ! His past deeds were now returning with a vengeance flung right back into his face , along with the symbolic spit from the producer and his wife , Dammit ! Who did this to me ? Oliver howled , his frustration and rage reaching a fever pitch .
He couldnt believe it his plans , so carefully orchestrated , had come crashing down .
And now , with the appearance of this mysterious backlash , he was at a loss .
Odalys ? Could it be her ? he whispered , his mind racing .
But I havent crossed paths with her lately .
Why would she target me now ? Ahhh … II hurts … I need to get that necklace from her .
I have to get it ! His voice was filled with desperation and greed as a dangerous spark flickered in his Not far off .
still hidden in the shadows , the producer and his wife had not yet left the scene .
They had heard Olivers frantic murmurs , and it had become painfully clear to them who had ruined Olivers plan .
If he hadnt tricked me into becoming his godfather … if he hadnt been scheming against our child , we would have been fine .
But now , our child is in danger of being used by him the woman said , her face pale , her body crumpling in exhaustion .
The producers face was hard to read as he stood silent , processing everything .
We need to go to Odalys at Magic Entertainment , he suddenly declared , his voice firm.
We need her help He had only tested the waters before , but now he understood Odalys was his savior .
Yes , yes , lets go now , the woman responded , a look of determination finally settling over her .
They hurried out of the alley and into their car , heading straight for Magic Entertainment .
Meanwhile , Odalys watched them leave , ensuring their safety .
As soon as the car disappeared down the road , she lowered the car window .
Theyre gone .
We can leave now , Odalys said , her voice calm and collected .
She hadnt moved earlier because she wanted to make sure the producer and his wife were out of harms way .
Oliver , cornered and desperate , might do anything including murder .
Are we just going to let Oliver off the hook ? Orson asked , still restless .
Hes a fraud .
Were just going to leave him like this ? Why bother ? Odalys replied with a smile that didnt quite reach her eyes .
The Bennett family is already in chaos .
After today , Olivers reputation will be shattered .
No one is going to come to his aid in this courtyard anymore .
Hes finished .
She paused for a moment , a knowing glint in her eyes .
Olivers going to be desperate now .
Hes going to try and drag people down with him .
The Bennett family is already falling apart .
Isnt that exactly what we need ? Odalys continued , her words calm but full of hidden meaning .
Orsons eyes widened .
Right Henrys been trying to reach him , hasnt he ? Now , with everything in disarray , Olivers going to make a move .
And thats when we get to strike .
A wicked grin spread across Odalyss face .
