Chapter 547
Odalys replied, "She contacted Oliver, and he used black magic to set her bones. Her injury healed, naturally."
Hearing that black magic could heal broken bones, Celeste was curious. "Can black magic heal broken bones? If so, couldn't someone avoid the hospital if injured?" she asked. After all, she'd never heard of such a thing.
Odalys shook her head.
After making coffee, Evander poured a cup for each of them. "It's called black magic," he explained. "Naturally, it's evil and unorthodox. The potion forcibly heals an illusion. She thinks she's healed, but her injury will worsen once the potion wears off."
"Isn't this what Percival mentioned? Is it similar to how you stitched Finnian's wound?" Evander asked, pulling up a chair.
"Yes, it's similar, but Oliver's method creates an illusion, while mine heals the wound. Finnian will truly recover if he avoids water for a month," Odalys explained.
Celeste shifted the topic. "So, why did she ask Mr. Stewart to meet her in a hotel room? The Bennett and Stewart families have no connection. Besides, the Bennetts severed ties with you; their affairs are none of her business. Right?" She continued, "And you're right here! Why would she need to talk to Mr. Stewart instead of you directly?" Celeste's eyes narrowed. This seemed suspicious.
"So it was her," Odalys mused. She'd warned Percival about Evander's romantic crisis, advising him to avoid contact with outsiders and gatherings, fearing something might happen. A severe romantic crisis could even be fatal. Now, she learned Hannah booked a room and invited Evander, using her as a cover. Things were getting more interesting.
Hannah couldn't help but think, 'This romantic crisis isn't a stranger. It's me.' She invited Evander to a hotel room; she must have an ulterior motive. Perhaps she planned to have someone catch them or even drug Evander. If it's the latter, what does she see in Evander? Does she want his child?
This thought left Odalys speechless. Her worldview was being refreshed. "Hannah and Windsor just broke up, and she's already targeting Evander? This is ridiculous!" she thought.
"She has her eyes on Mr. Stewart! How dare she target the Stewart family! Doesn't she have gerontophilia?!" Celeste exclaimed. Realizing she might have offended Evander, she quickly stood, maintaining an elegant posture.

"Mr. Stewart, I'm sorry," Celeste panicked. She hadn't interacted with Evander before. Offending the Stewarts would be detrimental to the Tillery family, as there wasn't much overlap between them. Only after meeting Odalys did the families begin to interact and cooperate.
"It's alright. You're not alone in doubting Hannah's motives. What does she want from an elder like me? Does she think I have something she can exploit?" Evander sneered. He wouldn't give such a trick a second glance.
Odalys was about to get up when a girl rushed in.
"Odalys!" The girl was urgent. She noticed Odalys's elegant aura, even in her simple blue and white floral dress and ponytail. The girl felt inferior and avoided direct eye contact. She hadn't expected Odalys to be so much more beautiful in person than on television; her skin was flawless.
"What's wrong?" Odalys asked, quickly setting down her cup.
The girl, anxious and timid, blurted out, "Outside, Sophia killed someone."
"Killed someone?!" Odalys's heart leaped. She'd felt something bad might happen, so she came in the morning, but she didn't expect this.
"Yes. Sophia hurt her fan. I'm also her fan," the girl sobbed, grabbing Odalys's sleeve. "We won't like her anymore. Please save her; she's dying."
Odalys's heart sank. "Don't cry. I'll go take a look," she said. She didn't care if they were fans; everyone was equal to her, and she couldn't ignore something happening outside Magic Entertainment's door.
Odalys strode out, followed by Celeste, Evander, and Dorian. Outside, more than a dozen girls stood at a distance, distraught. A young girl lay on the ground, her chest stained red, motionless, eyes wide open.
A fan rushed forward, waving the others away. They couldn't believe Odalys had come out so resolutely. They were awestruck by her beauty.
"She's so beautiful!" "Oh my god, she's much prettier than Sophia!"
Someone immediately started a livestream, pointing the camera at Odalys. "Oh my God, it's Odalys! She's so beautiful! It seems she hasn't had plastic surgery."
Thousands flooded the livestream. People in the chat were confused by the chaotic scene. Fans quickly explained, "We met Sophia. She went crazy and hurt a fan who stopped liking her, and now she's escaped."
