Betrayed, Yet Bound To The Billionaire by Grace Madeline

Chapter 279 Denival modded , then dropped the tool he was holding and glanced around .

whats buried underneath , he salil .

Undentul Callum immediately made a pleone call .

other pits .

Tart someone to dig up all these grains .

Lets see Before long , the bodyguards arrived .

They moved quickly , and soon every pit had been dug open .

To their surprise , beneath each pit , about 1.5 feet deeper , a strong , sickening stench of blood filled the air .

The bodyguards assumed it was blood Dave the secINE odone , the bodyguards left .

How is this pemulder * Cathum was visibily shockedl Instead of just dead bodies , there were more things li İnitied beneath .

No wonder Odalys wanted to come back here to check again Percival mittered , his voice low .

Seems like this place has hidden depths The first time she came , she killed the old man , which led to Sophias backlash .

The second time , the saved Francis and drew the police over making them discover the bodies If this was a place she kept returning to , it had to be significant It looks like Odalys intuition was right , Orson remarked with some awe .

Percival stood there for a moment , scanning the pits .

After a pause , he said , Get in touch with the police and see if theyve identified these bodies Since these pits are full of mixed blood and mud , the people buried here must be someone of importance , he continued .

Brandon thed to use the negative energy of his dead grandson to tap into the Stewart familys luck .

Percival muttered , his voice grim .

Maybe these people who died here were all from wealthy or high ranking families He wasnt sure if his guess was correct , but something about the situation felt off I think theres a strong possibility of that .

Orson agreed .

Callum , listening to their conversation , spoke up in a low voice , Til head over to the police station Be careful .

Dont let anyone notice you , Percival reminded him .

After all , they had been followed by Finnian tonight .

Dont worry , Mr.

Stewart .

Ill be careful , Callum replied before hurrying off , driving Percivals car .

Once Callum was gone , Orson and Percival began covering the pits to prevent the contents from being washed away by the rat .

When they nished .

Orson got behind the wheel and headed back Back to the Stewart Villa ? Orson asked in a low voice .

Percival pulled out his phone and glanced at the screen .

He noticed that Odalys hadnt sent him any messages .

Lets go to Freyas apartment , Percival said quietly .

Orson was momentarily taken aback .

While Freya was the Stewart familys adopted daughter , Percival wasnt particularly interested in women , and he didnt usually interact much with Freya .

Why is he suddenly going to her apartment at this bour ? Orson w wondered Odalys must have gour to her place earlier , and something must have happened , Percival explained .

Hearing this , Orson immediately floured the accelerator and sped off toward Freyas apartment .

At Wookin Apartment , as soon as Odalys arrived and stepped into the elevator , she received a video call from Percival .

When the saw Sophias tempting Egure in the frame , she unmediately knew that Sophia must have been following Percival out .

Chapter 270 Sophias fate seemed tied in Finnian , so it was most likely related to Finnian .

And Finnuancs back was terrible .

Just the other day .

Odalys had said that he was likely going to do something extreme .

She hadnt expected it to happen so somn , but the fact that Finniand targeted Percival and his groups seemed like a death with With his bad luck , its no surprise .

If the heavens want you to suffer , theres no escaping at , Odalys wondered But Finian , it seemed , hail picked the most ruthless option to go after With a loud sound the elevator doors opened , and Odalys quickly stepped out .

She saw Edie , holding a fire extinguisher , pounding on the door , clearly frustrated as it remained locked .

Freya , you better come our hin s voler lacked the commailing tone from last night .

Her hair was disheveled , and she had kicked off her high heels in her rage .

With a soft click .

Firys opened the door .

As soon as Edie saw her , she threw the fire extinguisher aside and stood tall , her posture dripping with arrogance .

I thought you were some bag shot , she sneered .

My husband adopted you into the Stewart family , raised you up , and now you Inch and mighty , huh Freyas heart tightened at Edies words as tears filled her er eyes Freya never spoke of her past , nor did she ever use the Stewart familys influence to push others down .

ou think youre all Because of that , the resources she had hoped for were always taken by Sophia , and the Stewart family never stepped in to to support her .

Now , Edie was bringing up Freyas adoption as asif it w were some kind of insult , aiming straight for the heart ! You have a problem Freyas voice was icy .

Suddenly .

Edie lunged at her .

Freya didnt react fast enough and was knocked down onto the carpet , the two of them crashing hard onto the floor Freya quickly pushed Edie away , but before she could get up , Edie pulled out a needle .

Freyas pupus contracted .

Now that Percival has kicked me out of the Stewart family , you , the adopted daughter , have become my only way back in Edie sneered , her cold .

Lets see how you deal with this .

With that .

Edie aimed the needle at Freyas neck .

eyes Just as the needle was about to pierce Freyas skin , a strong hand grabbed Edies wrist .

A gust of wind swept through the room , and with a loud slap , Edie was struck hard across the face .

Dazed , she regained her senses and realized her wrist was now firmly held by someone else .

And the needle she had been holding was now pointed right back at her .

No , please , not Edie screamed in terror Before she could pull away , the needle was plunged into her own flesh .

Odalys had acted quickly , and the syringes contents were now being injected into Edies body .

As the liquid flowed through her veins , Edies face turned pale , and a look of sheer panic spread across her eyes as she realized what was happening Clink The syringe fell from Odalys hand , hinting the floor with a soft thud .

You you injected at Edir ́s voice was trembling , disbelief washing over her .

She stared at Odalys , unable to process the fact that she had actually come .

You wanted to infern her , right ? Well , I thought Id let you do it yourself .

Im sure this medicine is very expensive .

Dont you think ? Wasting on an adopted daughter like Freya seems like such a waste , Odalys you ? Thats the perfect hi Her calm smile imitated Edie , said with a calm smile , her tone almost mocking But using it o Fixed her eyes un Odalys , Edie opened her mouth, but the agony from the injection forced her to take a step back , collapsing heavily onto the 2/3 Chapter 279 Call an ambulance ! Someone , please , call .

ambulance Edie shouted weakly .

But dalys didnt move .

Neither did Freya .

Both stood at the door of the apartment , looking down at her with cold , unmoving eyes She had lived almost fifty years without ever feeling so atrand She had once been the wife of Percivals father , treated with the utmost respect .

Even a small cut on her finger would have doctors attending to her imunediately , and the finest overseas physicians would examine her .

But now , after a single night , she was nothing After waking up in the hospital she realized just how quickly everything had unraveled .

Even Oliver , who had once been close to her , was now avoiding her .

She had spent the entire day in the hospital , but Oliver never showed up .

Not a single wealthy madam who had once been her friend had come to visit either It wasnt until she saw the official announcement from the Stewart family that she truly panicked .

She tried to use her credit card to settle the bill , only to find her bank accounts frozen .

Her properties had been reclaimed .

In just one day , she had lost everything .
