Chapter 299
Celeste recalled that people could die instantly by "figlaning"—a word seemingly misspelled and needing clarification in the original text—and that Isat Mhostinn was in danger. Harvey stood there, his eyes meeting Percival's.
“Mrs. Tillery, I have something to tell you,” Odalys said, glancing over, knowing the two men were cautiously observing. The original phrasing "the two men cdiciously hal" is unclear and corrected here for clarity. The sentence "After all the outside would thought Percival families to join him, so he naturally hond to" is grammatically incorrect and its meaning is lost. It needs to be rewritten with more context.
“Yes,” Celeste replied, determined not to appear negligent. Harvey, suddenly appearing, seemed puzzled; Percival needed (The sentence trails off, the original text "wediliy" is unintelligible and requires context.)
She had just witnessed Odalys's powers, and after hearing her claim responsibility for the thunder, Odalys's status in her heart was elevated. She looked at Odalys with admiration and reverence.
Odalys whispered, “Your daughter will be fine when she wakes up. Do have her avoid celebrities in the future, lest she fall into others' traps. Especially families like yours, who are wealthy, are easy targets.” (Several spelling and grammatical errors corrected.)
“Additionally, I will deal with the Bennett family; Sophia will be dealt with. As for your daughter's situation, don't disclose it to the police (for the time being)." (Parenthetical phrase added for clarity.)
Celeste followed and nodded quickly, “Yes.” Her voice trembled. She wanted to speak but dared not say more. Her mind was filled with the scene where Odalys, with a flick of her wrist, ignited the snakes in mid-air, burning them to ashes; then, with a wave of her hand, the black mist above the entire house dissipated.
The scene was like a movie special effect. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't have believed it.
“If you want to do good deeds, go to my studio and pray,” Odalys whispered.
“Okay, I’ll go tomorrow,” Celeste replied quickly. She looked at Odalys with admiration and love.
“Mrs. Stewart, can I have your autograph?” Celeste asked after standing beside her in silence for a long time, finally mustering the courage. She used to be furious when Blossom was starstruck. She never expected that she, too, would want an autograph from Odalys. That fidgety, uneasy feeling drove her to ask.
“Okay,” Odalys whispered.
Celeste searched but found she hadn't brought anything. Subconsciously, she lifted her wrist, pushing up her sleeve to reveal her arm.
“How about signing it here?” Celeste asked tentatively, even picking up a charred branch from the ground to offer. She realized her presumption and was about to discard it when Odalys took it and scribbled something on her arm. Celeste looked down and saw Odalys had signed her name.
“What’s this?” Celeste rubbed her eyes in disbelief.
Odalys smiled softly and said, “Magic dust. It wards off evil.”
“The handwriting is so beautiful!” Celeste looked at the words on her arm, not daring to pull down her sleeve, fearing the words would be erased.
Odalys laughed at her uneasy look. “It can’t be washed off.” As she spoke, she turned and walked out. Percival emerged from the Tillery residence; Harvey followed respectfully, his eyes deep as he looked at him.

“Honey,” Celeste hurried forward. Just as she was about to show him the signature on her arm, she heard Harvey say, “The Stewart family is unfathomable.”
“What?” Celeste was stunned, thinking she'd heard wrong.
Harvey stood there, hands behind his back, and said in a low voice, “The Stewart family strategizes and controls the global economy. They can navigate the business and political world with ease. It’s not luck, but intelligence.”
“I can’t believe Percival is so young and yet so powerful. Thankfully, our family has always remained neutral and never crossed the Stewart family,” Harvey continued, his voice filled with admiration for Percival.
“Was that Percival Stewart?” Celeste gasped. Nobody had actually seen Percival in person; rumor had it he was dead. With that thought, Celeste turned around in astonishment, only to discover that Odalys and Percival had already driven away.
Harvey whispered, “That car had the license plate 5-AB—the Stewart Group chairman’s car. That man was Percival Stewart. I can’t believe Odalys is with him, and that he personally brought her here.”
“It seems Odalys saved our family because of the Stewart family. Otherwise, with her capabilities, she wouldn't have bothered.”
“So, Odalys is the one rumored to be engaged to Percival as a lucky charm. She's Mrs. Stewart? Oh my god, I just asked for her autograph! I didn't leave a bad impression, did I?” Celeste’s face was ashen. The incident of Blossom’s injury was long forgotten; she had become a fan of Odalys.
“It must be her! Odalys saved our family tonight and warned us against Oliver's tricks. We must remember this favor,” Harvey whispered. He looked down at the signature on Celeste’s arm and whispered, “I heard Odalys only does resource swaps. Let’s offer our family's best resources and sign a contract with her.”
“Yes,” Celeste said excitedly. As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Blossom suddenly sit up in the distance. She looked at them with a confused face and said, “Mom, why am I sleeping here? Hey, where is Odalys? Did she leave?”
Blossom looked confused. When she got up, her memories returned, and her expression changed drastically.
“Did Odalys leave? She saved me, didn’t she? I feel like the obsession in my body is gone,” Blossom asked anxiously.
Seeing her wake up, Celeste excitedly hugged Blossom. This was the future and hope of the Tillery family. They thought there was no cure, but now hope was rekindled.
“She’s gone! Don’t worry. Starting tomorrow, you can go to her studio with me to pray,” Celeste comforted Blossom, and Blossom didn’t throw a tantrum. She quietly digested what happened, staring blankly at the gate for a long time.
“Mom, can I still be starstruck?” Blossom asked.
Celeste’s mind seemed to explode as she looked at Blossom in disbelief.
“I want Odalys as my idol,” Blossom whispered.
Before Celeste could speak, she silently pulled down her sleeves, afraid Blossom would see the signature on her arm. It would be too embarrassing if Blossom knew she also worshipped Odalys.

Chapter 299 (Repetition of chapter number; likely an error in the original text)
Celeste stood up awkwardly and said casually, “Up to you.” Harvey frowned, watching Celeste feigning casualness while rubbing the signature on her arm. He didn’t say anything and walked into the villa. He didn’t understand the world of women.
This cleaned-up version addresses grammatical errors, spelling mistakes, punctuation issues, and unclear phrasing. However, some sentences still lack context and might need further clarification depending on the overall narrative. The inconsistent chapter numbering also needs attention.
