OE course , I sensed something the first day entered Nosi kriew all along ? Odalys paused , a few seconds of silence lingering as she considered her next word .
Dvivival stopped in his tracks and turned to face bec .
His towering figure cast a sluslow over her as he looked slowen at her , his voice low and steady But at best , I wasnt sure if my fathers incident had anything to do with the clothes he made .
However , after my fathers accident , he shut down the stote in Crowenridge and closed all lus other cham stones .
Even other mendici This family mysteriously died We dubot have any direct evidence , but the Stewart family had ordered their clothing from him , and aside from that , there was no other connection .

Peveral met her gare , his expression softening as he chuckled quietly .
As they spoke outside , the old wooden door creaked open with a low creak and the elderly man appeared in the doorway .
His eyes widened as he saw Percival , and tears welled up in his eyes .
Stewart The old man staggered toscand Percival , his body trembling .
With a desperate cry , be dropped to his knees in front of Percival , his voice disking as he begged .
I had no idea that the clothes would indirectly cause your fathers death .
I truly didnt know After hus frank conversation with Odalys the night before , he had hardly slept .
He had been waiting for Odalys to come to him again , but to his surprise , it was not her who came , but Rafael covered in blood , bruised and broken .
Stafael had been running around the house , in agony , screaming before collapsing .
The old man realized at that moment that Odalys had been signaling him .
This man , Rafael , controlled everything in the village , until he was dealt with , everyone would remain in danger .
When he saw Odalys force Rafael into unconsciousness , he had been watching from the shadows .
He watched in awe as Odalys managed everything with calm efficiency , controlling every aspect of the situation , even manipulating Rafael .
It left him dumbfounded .
He had never imagined she could do something like this , Lets go inside and talk .
Percival said in a low voice , his tone firm .
He extended a hand to help the old man up .
The old man , both startled and overwhelmed , accepted the offer , his mind racing .
In his eyes , the Stewart family was everything control over the business world , political power that could sway entire governments .
For someone of his humble position to be in their presence was surreal .
Alright Jets go inside , the old man muttered , sull in disbelief .
He had been here for so many years , believing that his son was on the brink of death , and that there was no hope left for him .
He had even decided that once his son passed away , he would end his own life as well .
But then Odalys appeared .
Not only did she give him hope , but she also managed to neutralize the poison in his sons body , She was like a ray of light , forcefully breaking into the old mans world and reigniting his will to live .
The old man welcomed Odalys and Percival inside .
He tidied up the table and chairs , making sure everything was neat and clean before letting them sit down .
Then , he brought out his treasured coffee for them to enjoy .
Tell me everything that happened , he said , his voice slark and commusling .
Chapter 183 The old won reosmied in detail the conversation from the nigla lielie cut clays , recinusting the specific moments she had asked him : remember .
He handed over a piece of paper , on which he had sketched a drawing of the person who visited his shop .
I never saw his face , the old man said quietly .
When he came into the shops , he wore a hat and a mask .
He was about 5797 , and his build was quite dean .
His voice was sharp , almost duill Percivalytists clenched tightly , his expression hardening .
He stared at the drawing intently , his mind already piecing the clues together .
Did you see the driver of the truck when it exploded ! Percivals voice was low , but his question carried a lethal edge .
Yes , You certam , the old man nodded firmly .
There was no one in the truck when it exploded .
The drivers seat was empty , and when the explosion happened , no our cinciged Odalys , who had been quietly observing , gave Percival a thoughtful glance .
Her mind was already working through the possibilities .
What do you think ? Percival asked , meeting her gize .
Dialys took a deep breath , then reached for her coffee , taking a small sip before speaking .
Its possible black magic was used to control the truck , causing the accident .
The truck crashed into your fathers vehicle , causing the explosion , and then they placed the drunk man inside to make it look like a drunk driving accident , Odalys said softly , her tone measured and calm .
She paused , letting the weight of her words sink in .
Normally , no one would willingly die for money , not in the way stories and movies portray .
So , when the right person isnt available , they use magic to make things happen .
Black magic Percival frowned , clearly intrigued but confused Odalys figlaly tapped the armrest of her chair , her fingers tracing the wood as she explained .
Sometimes people are desperate .
When they want something too badly , they take shortcuts , resorting to dark practices , Hefore , Sophia used a love spell that she burned into ashes and made Finnian consume , tuming him into a puppet under her control .
He didnt even realize what he was doing ? „ Thats also black magic , she finished , her eyes sharp and calculating .
Percivals face grew darker as he processed the information .
Ive already had Gu Qing start looking into Sophias use of talismans .
Im not sure if its connected to this , ban well and out Sophias burning of the talisman Ive already had Callum look into it .
Im not sure if its related to this matter .
Percival said in a low voice .
Odalys was a bit surprised .
She hadnt expected that he had already started investigating it .
To outsiders , it might seem like nothing more than hype or coincidence , but no one had thought to trace where the talisman in her possession came from , or who had given it to her .
contact with the e outside world , my people will immediately Additionally , Eve already secured the area outside the village .
Once that man makes co track and capture him , Percival continued .
After hearing that , Odalys fell into deeper silence .
She hadnt communicated with Percival directly , but it seemed their thoughts aligned almost perfectly .
She had art the trap for Rafael , hoping he would act out of desperation and try to contact the people behind him .
From there , she could trace things back and find out who was pulling the strings .
And Pertivals actions were in perfect alignment with hers .
You did well making him suffer today , it drove him to the brink of collapse .
When he gets desperate , hell surely try to reach out to his backers .
Froan thirre , we can follow the trail and catch However , its been so many years , and we never thought to consider magic hack then .
So , the evidence we have is limited Percival continued .
Percival wa was highly intelligent , able to think critically and connect dots even without full knowledge .
He had managed to control every situation , even without bring fully aware of it .
Our could only imagine that if his health hadnt deteriorates , the Stewart family would likely have become even n more powerful by no LOW .
