Chapter 445 Odalyss voice suddenly broke the silence , filled with excitement .
What we saw earlier might have been the golden light from the Stewart familys ancestral tablet , preserving our memories or consciousness .
wn skin She clutched the bright red veil tightly , the scent of the woman still lingering on it , an exact match to the fragrance that clung to her own So , not only did the Stewart family ancestors protect us , but its also possible your father had a hand in it .
Even though hes trapped here , he must have seen you and instinctively wanted to protect you , she added .
Her words were barely out when Percival spun a around .
In the distance , through the gray mist , a lone figure stood beneath a tree , casually sipping from a coffee cup It was as if the figure sensed Percivals gaze because he lifted his cup and smiled faintly in his direction , calmly sipping the coffee as if he were both watching and not watching at all Father , Percival muttered under his breath .
The figure seemed to sense something , and their eyes locked .
But before Percival could speak again , the figure rose and walked away with long strides , fading further into the mist , his form slowly swallowed by the fog .
Wasnt that … Percivals father just now ? Callums voice cracked with disbelief .
He rubbed his eyes , unsure if he was seeing things .
Percivals father had been dead for over a decade , and yet , just now , that Camiliar figure had appeared in front of them .
It was enough to make anyone question their reality .
Dont dwell on it .
You need to let go of any attachments .
Maybe only then can we break free from all of this .
Once things are over , free him and bring him back .
Odalys said gently , her hand resting on Percivals arm .
Percival took a step forward , but then halted , his foot hovering in the air Ill figure out a He stood there , staring in the direction where his fathers figure had disappeared .
He didnt speak , but his hand tightened into a fist at his side , the muscles in his jaw clenching .
He was holding back a storm of emotions His fathers death had always haunted him , but to know that even in death , his father had still found a way to watch over him , to care for him .
It was almost too much to bear .
He had once tolerated Edies manipulations for the sake of the greater good .
But now , the hatred he had suppressed for so long was rising up inside him , threatening to consume him .
It looks like we didnt come here for nothing , Percival said , his voice low but steady .
The first thing we need to deal with is the Bennett family .
Lets see who from the Bennett family , aside from the Simpson family , encouraged them to abandon you all those years ago .
He paused , then added with a cold edge , And who made them adopt Sophia His voice regained its calm and resolute tone , Percival , as the head of the Stewart family , was accustomed to handling matters with rationality Faced with something as large as this , he could process it quickly .
The initial intention behind adopting Sophia was it to replace you , or was it to use the Bennett family as a cover for her ! Whoever was behind this knows a thing or two about magic .
They must have known you had good fortune , and maybe they even knew about the endless ties between you and me , but they couldnt directly remove you .
So they targeted the Bennett family instead , made them abandon you , and left you to die out there .
Percivals voice grew darker .
But your master intervened and changed your fate .
It all made sense now .
Everything clicked into place .
Yes , Odalys said , her voice soft but filled with surprise .
She knew Percival was sharp , but she hadnt expected him to piece it all together so quickly Wait a minute , what happened to you two earlier ? Callum asked , still dazed , clearly not understanding what had just unfolded .
He had almost fallen victim to some illusion , but it was as if a slap had woken him from the spell .
Odalys turned to Callum suddenly , her eyes sharp .
What happened to you earlier ! Chapter 415 Callum immediately launched into a detailed explanation recounting every bizarre moment he had experienced Percival exchanged a glance with Odalys .
It looks like he , too , got trapped in the illusion .
Were lucky he was snapped out of it , or he might have died here too .
Percival said with a berry sigh It was then that i the noticed the brick in Callum hand .
Callum , sensing Percivals gaze , quickly handed the brick over .
Percival took it , inspecting it closely .
Odalys leaned in and pointed at it .
This looks like the brick from under the candle holder , does it ? Theres still wax on it , Callum said , rubbing his fingers across the surf surface , confirming her observation .
when the house collapsed earlier , the brick must have been fluns out .
Peroval continued , a look of realuration crossing his face .
It seem father was the one who woke him up Odalys quickly concluded .
It must have been your fathers lingering consciousness that saved him Callum stood frozen , a whirlwind of emotions flooding him .
He had never imagined that Percivals father whom he had known and respected- was the one who had saved him .
He shuddered at the thought of what might have happened if he hadnt been jolted awake Does your father still have a presence here ! Does that mean hes still here ! But how could the dead still have consciousness And why was bein the Simpson villa ! Callum asked , his confusion growing .
Til explain Percival said .
He was brought here and trapped .
Someone locked him in this place .
Callums eyes widened in shock , realization dawning on him .
So when you attempted to summon his spirit before , you couldnt End him because his soul was locked here ! Who did this to him ! Callums voice trembled with anger , the injustice of it all sinking in .
He had grown up with Percival , and the Stewart family had treated him like their own son .
Percivals father had always been kind to him and now now someone had trapped him in this horrible place .
The Simpson family ! Callum said , his eyes narrowing in fury before he even let Percival answer .
The mention of the Simpson family had in his hear Yes .
Percival confirmed softly , his voice carrying the weight of their shared history .
His hand tightened around Odalyss , his large fingers gently enclosing her small hand , as if giving her strength and protection .
Odalys stood there , silent , her thoughts swirling The image of Percivals father , and the vision of herself in the bridal gown , kept flashing through her mind .
Her gaze fell to the red veil in her hand , the weight of its significance pressing on her heart .
We should go back , Odalys said decisively , breaking the tension in the air .
This wasnt a place for conversation .
Even though midnight had passed , it didnt mean the place was safe .
The energy here was all wrong the junction of energies was heavy with malevolent forer .
Staying here too long could damage them physically , or worse , harm their health .
Lets go back , Percival agreed , nodding- They made their way out of the eerie place , and as they turned to leave , Odalys glanced back .
The spot they had been standing in had become hazy , the mist swirling thicker and more ominous as if trying to conceal something .
Once in the car , Callum drove them back along the same path The road was quiet , and Callum didnt speak a word Odalys leaned against the window , her eyes lost in the vast darkness outside .
Though the night way pitch black , she felt as though she could still see that figure from the past .
Around the 1990s , she and Percival had been married .
