Listen to this chapter:

Percival found the incident weird and unusual at that time.

โ€œIf itโ€™s related to what happened to your father, the other partyโ€™s age should be about the same as your fatherโ€™s or even older than him,โ€ Odalys analyzed.

At the mention of his father, Percivalโ€™s eyes welled up with complex emotions.

โ€œItโ€™s a pity that my master is in seclusion and doesnโ€™t concern himself with worldly affairs. Otherwise, I would have asked him about it,โ€ Odalys said.

Percival stood shoulder to shoulder with her, bathed in the sunlight. Their shadows stretched out long and intertwined on the ground, seemingly inseparable.

โ€œDo you think my father knew your master? I donโ€™t know if the expert I met back then was your master,โ€ said Percival frankly.

All the things he had encountered these days were strange, which made him wonder if his encounter with the expert was just a coincidence.

โ€œI donโ€™t know. It just feels too coincidental,โ€ Odalys said.

It was like an invisible hand was guiding and controlling everything.

And she hated it most when others controlled her life. No matter what, she wanted to destroy everything and rebuild it. She would never let anyone lead her around.

Percival said, โ€œI feel the same way. Everything is too coincidental, including when we were chasing the location of the Simpson familyโ€™s ancestral home, which led us to the intersection of the junction of energy, and then we accidentally entered the time tunnel and saw the scene of my fatherโ€™s accident. There is no denying the junction of energy or the Time Tunnel is related to my father.โ€

In both accidental encounters, he saw things related to his father. Perhaps his fatherโ€™s accident was the most crucial link.

Odalys said, โ€œSpeaking of the junction of energy, the emerald that Celeste gave me has memories of those years from the era of us in the 1920โ€™s.โ€ Then Odalys asked boldly, โ€œWhy donโ€™t we test it tonight?โ€

โ€œHow do we test it?โ€ asked Percival, who frowned after hearing her words.

Odalys said, Iโ€™ll tell you when we get back tonight. Iโ€™ll see if we both can see the memories inside the emerald at the same time. Maybe we can find out why we can see these things, and what happened back then. It feels like everything is in a constant loop, or that someone is deliberately guiding us back to discover it. I donโ€™t know if any of this is your fatherโ€™s doing.โ€

She had said before Percivalโ€™s father might have been personally involved. If he was personally involved, the matter might have been more serious that they had imagined, so he needed to bring the whole thing to light himself. Thinking of that, Odalysโ€™s heart couldnโ€™t help but feel heavy.

Odalys continued to analyze, โ€œWhat was your father trying to tell us? He led us to find my astrological signs under that thurible when we were at the junction of energy. From the very beginning, someone knew I was going there or wanted to deal with me. But you went in first and eventually led me to follow you.โ€

It felt like everything had been designed. All was coincidental, yet seemingly reasonable.

โ€œIf he knew about your astrological signs, itโ€™s possible it was 20 years ago when you were born. Iโ€™m a few years older than you. My father had an accident soon after you were born. But my grandpa has set his sights on you and believes if I marry you, you will bring me good luck,โ€ said Percival, following her train of thought.

They were both suddenly startled and looked at each other. It was as if something flickered in their minds, getting closer and closer. They tried to catch it but couldnโ€™t.

โ€œOdalys,โ€ Orson ran over at that moment, interrupting their conversation. He ran up to them panting. He looked around Bennett Villa. He was relieved to see there was no one outside except the bodyguards Percival had brought with him.

โ€œWhatโ€™s wrong?โ€ Odalys asked.

Orson looked inside Bennett Villa and whispered, โ€œSophia seems to have fainted. Henry asked what we should do now.โ€

Odalys said, โ€œLet her be. Sheโ€™ll wake up eventually. Even if she does, her hands are injured. Sheโ€™ll be thinking about treating her hands first and wonโ€™t have the energy to deal with us. Hannah and Edie will wake up soon, too. Letโ€™s go.โ€

She had always been resolute and hated procrastination. The main reason Odalys came here today was Oliver was severely injured by a backlash. Sophia would make a move. So Odalys came to directly cut off Sophiaโ€™s plan, forcing her to contact Edie. She pushed them toward the Simpson family, wanting to see if they could still keep their cool.

Maybe the person behind the scenes could be forced out in this way. Otherwise, it would never be a good thing for the other party to hide in the dark.

โ€œThe Simpson family are so calm, I want to blow up their house,โ€ Orson was furious.

Odalys stopped in her tracks when he said that.

Orson was a little scared, so he scratched his head quickly and asked, โ€œOdalys, what did I say wrong?โ€

Odalys said, โ€œFind someone to report it and seal up Edieโ€™s villa in the East District. Maybe that will make Edie desperate. After all, Zacheryโ€™s brother- in-law has been arrested. Just shake things up and let the police investigate. It involves Edie, who definitely wonโ€™t be able to sit still.โ€

โ€œIโ€™ve made arrangements before I came,โ€ Percival said suddenly.

He expected Odalys would make the next move, and the villa in the East District last night must be a good push. So he had made arrangements and would act immediately when Odalys mentioned it.

โ€œDamn. Percival, do you know what Odalys wants to do? You two are so telepathic.โ€ Orson was shocked again.

Upon seeing his surprised look, Odalys couldnโ€™t help but laugh.

โ€œBy the way, how is the research on Dโ€™angeloโ€™s medicine going?โ€ Odalys asked.

Dโ€™angelo had been living in the VIP ward of the hospital since the car accident. Many wealthy people in Crownridge had cancer or similar diseases. With the advice of Odalys, Orson checked and found they might all have been infected with the virus planted by someone else.

They wanted those heirs or those in power to get sick or cancer to cause chaos in wealthy families. Apparently, they were targeting wealthy families. If wealthy families were in chaos, businesses would be in chaos. Some people could take advantage of it.

โ€œThere has been some progress. Mr. Drake also proposed he is willing to try medicine. I have also talked to Stellan, and he said he supports Dโ€™angeloโ€™s approach,โ€ Orson said.

Medicine must be tested by someone, and it must be tried by one who has the disease.

Generally, rich people were not willing to test medicine. After all, if something went wrong, they might lose their lives. These wealthy people who had cancer were all afraid of death, and no one was willing to do it.
