Chapter 481 Odalys didnt hide anything and explained everything to them in detail .
My fathers soul wasnt just trapped there ; there was also a shrine dedicated to the ancestors of the Stewart Group , and under the incense burner in front of the altar , my astrological signs were being suppressed .
Odalyss eyes grew dark as she spoke , still unable to fully believe what she had witnessed .
She was just an ordinary person why would someone go to such lengths to manipulate her ? It seems like someone has been watching the Stewart family for a long time .
As for the suppression of your astrological signs , it looks closely tied to the Stewart family .
Evander said , his voice thoughtful .
s like they theyre The Bennett family must have had some hand in your abandonment .
Perhaps someone was working behind the scenes to drive you away from Crownridge , or even make sure you died out there .
But it seems you survived despite their efforts , he added after a long pause .
Clarence , who had been quietly listening , interjected .
So the people behind this couldnt kill Odalys directly , so they tried to get rid of her in other ways ? His tone was skeptical , as though this entire situation sounded increasingly strange Evander nodded gravely .
If they feared Odalyss fate or her astrological signs , and used Sophia to replace her , there can only be one explanation He paused again , as if weighing his words .
Both Odalys and Clarence instinctively looked at him , waiting for the rest of his thoughts .
The Bennett family is also special , but they are more easily controlled than the Stewart family , Evander concluded .
Odalys remained silent , contemplating the implications of his words She stared at the car they were in for a long moment , then reached out to open .
open the door .
But to her surprise , the door remained immobile .
It seems that once youre in the time tunnel , whatever happens , happens .
You cant change anything , and even though youre inside the car , you cant get out , Odalys muttered .
Evander , still staring at the door , frowned .
If you cant open it from the outside , maybe we can from the inside .
He said with determination .
Since were already .
dy in this situation , I dont want to just sit here and watch my son die .
Even if this is a dream , I want to save him at least once .
Clarence nodded in agreement .
I feel the same way .
He was deeply pained .
He had watched Percival grow up , seen his incredible talent and potential , and it broke his heart to see that young man die in his prime , a victim of someones malevolent plans , You should try Odalys urged .
She stepped back , watching as Evander began pushing against the door .
At first , it didnt budge .
The second time , it seemed to shift slightly .
Evander kept trying , again and again .
Finally , exhausted , he gave one last push and with a loud clang , the door creaked open .
Evander stepped er eyes filled with uncase .
y get out ? Odalys asked , her eyes Can you really get She had an unsettling feeling in her gut .
The time tunnel was supposed to be unchangeable , so how could Evander be the exception ! But the moment Evanders feet touched the ground , everything seemned to change .
His healthy , robust body began to wither right before their eyes .
He grew thinner , his body resembling nothing but skin and bones , as if he were on the verge of becoming a dried up corpse ..
Evander ! Clarence exclaimed , horrified .
I te was about to step out of the car , but just as he was about to move , he saw the horrific transformation happening before him .
1/3 7:51 AM c Chapter 181 Evander , now frail and weakened , began coughing violently .
His once strong voice was now a mere rasp He looked at Odalys with vacant eyes , his expression full of confusion and fear.
His body trembled as he tried to speak , but his words were barely Judible He wanted to say something , but before he could , Odalys rushed forward , pulling a talisman from her pocket and throwing it towards him .
without hesitation .
The talisman surrounded Exander , wrapping him in a protective glow .
Grandpa , get back in the car ! Odalyss voice was choked with emotion .
Her eyes were red , filled with tears .
She knew that the Time Tunnel couldnt be altered , but she hadnt expected this death to be the outcome .
Evander stood there , barely able to lift his head .
He turned to look at the overturned Cayenne , his eyes filled with grief as tears began to pour Son .
I want to save my son .
Evanders voice cracked , barely a whisper .
He had never cried before .
Even when his son died , he had not allowed himself the luxury of tears .
As the leader of the Stewart family , he could never show weakness he couldnt let others see that his family had vulnerabilities .
He had to protect the familys legacy , even if it meant suppressing his own emotions .
For the Stewart family For Percival .
He had never shed a tear for his son .
But now , trapped in this Time Tunnel , he was forced to watch his sons death unfold again and again .
He saw the car crash , the explosion , the horror , and all be could do was stand there , powerless His heart felt like it was being tom apart , the pain unbearable .
Inside , his protective instincts for his son had reached their peak .
Now that Percival had been raised by him and was with Odalys , he had no regrets .
If there was one thing he could consider a regret in his life , it was his son .
He hadnt been able to get to him in time , hadnt been able to see him one last time before his tragic death in a car explosion his sons body was never found Son .
Im coming to be with you .
Evander struggled , his body wracked with agony .
His gaze faltered , unable to stay steady .
His eyes fixed on the fallen Porsche , his strength failing him .
He desperately tried to break free from everything holding him back , wanting to reach the car , to open the door with all his might He wanted to drag his son out , even if he couldnt save him.
He just didnt want his son to die alone .
Evanders son had been only 27 years old when he died .
he was Even in death , he wanted to be with his son , not wanting his son to pass away all alone .
His son had been a kind and generous soul , yet h betrayed and killed .
Before his death , he had done no wrong , he only wanted to save others Son Evanders voice was strained , as though his throat were on f on fire .
Yet he kept calling out , his vision becoming hazy , as though his son was there , but also not .
It was as if a fog had descended over his eyes .
Was he losing his sight , or was his son disappearing ? He couldnt let his son go again .
Even if he had to die , he wanted to die with him .
He wanted to be with him .
This thought kept repeating in his mind , urging him forward .
pull Evander back into the Evander Clarence , watching his old car .
But the moment his hand touched him , he was horrified he only grabbed a layer of skin friend in such agony , couldnt bear it anymore .
He rushed forward , attempting to p Clarence recoiled in fear , his heart pounding in his chest .
It wasnt that he was afraid of death .
It was that touching Evander felt as if he could easily pull his skin off .
If he used any more force , would Evanders body fall apan ? He stared blankly at the blood and flesh in his palm , then at the spot on Evanders shoulder , where his own finger marks were imprinted , as though Jus friends body was already giving way .
