Chapter 256: Chapter 262

Betrayed, Yet Bound To The Billionaire by Grace MadelineWords: 7811

Chapter 262 Francis lunged forward , and the people waiting in line for Star readings surged ahead , quickly overpowering the man who had just tried to run .

He reached for his phone , and Freya swiftly stepped in , stomping on his hand to stop him .

Selah stepped up and picked up his phone , hanging up the call that had not yet gone through .

The whole thing happened so suddenly that it startled some people .

Oh my God , Stellan , Freya , Francis , and Selah are all here ? Are these big stars helping Odalys ? They must really be close.

Their appearance fees start at hundreds of thousands of dollars ! someone said , their voice filled with disbelief .

Even these celebrities were stepping in to help Odalys catch a criminal suspect .

Many people immediately pulled out their phones to record the scene .

Freya turned around and said , Dont post any videos online .

Right now , its a matter of life and death .

Cordelia came to Star readings .

The police were already on their way , and this man was the one watching over her .

If you post that video , you could end up putting her daughter in danger , Freya added .

The people who had been about to upload the video froze , hastily putting their phones away .

As time passed , someone quickly found the news .

The address was the same as the one Odalys had mentioned earlier .

Hello , everyone .

The police just busted a human trafficking ring .

In the number 23 basement at Zurian Road , 23 young girls were being held captive .

All of them are from the recent list of missing persons , the reporter said .

The news immediately caused a stir .

No one expected Odalys casual remark to help a lot .

Thank you , really thank you .

Cordelia looked at the news , her phone vibrating with an incoming call .

When she answered the polices call and switched it to speakerphone , the officers voice came through , saying , Hello , weve found your daughter .

Shes on her way to the hospital .

Please come as soon as you can .

Also , please thank Ms.

Stone for us , the officer added .

The officers voice stunned everyone .

Cordelia , overcome with emotion , kept bowing to Odalys , her body trembling as tears flowed freely .

Thank you … thank you , Odalys , truly , thank you .

You saved my daughter , and you saved my whole family .

Shes my only child .

If anything happened to her , I dont think Id be able to go on .

Thank you , thank you so much , she cried out , her voice breaking .

Many parents were moved by her words .

Cordelia tried to offer money in thanks , but Odalys stopped her .

Everyone who helped catch the trafficker just now can come by anytime for a free Star reading , as long as you present your sign up number , Odalys said , handing over the sign .

The people who had bravely stepped in never expected to receive such good fortune .

They were so excited , they hurried forward to accept the sign .

Odalys glanced at the second and third people in line and said , You should go to the hospital .

Just like Mrs.

Blythe , youre looking for your children .

Theyve been found , and theyre on their way to the hospital .

They were stunned and didnt have a chance to speak before it seemed as though Odalys had already guessed their situation .

How did you know what we were looking for ? they asked , surprised .

As if on cue, they received a call from the police .

They held onto their phones tightly .

What had once seemed like a long shot now felt like undeniable truth .

Thank you .

After thanking Odalys , they turned and left .

Those who had been waiting for some kind of spectacle now silently lowered their heads and walked away .

Fans crowded around , offering flowers , feeling that the atmosphere was too sacred to interrupt .

Just as they were preparing to leave , they all received gift bags .

The outside was bustling , but half an hour later , the crowd had dispersed , leaving the place eerily quiet .

1/3 Chapter 262 Is it over already Selah stood there , looking at the scene outside , which was spotless .

There wasnt a scrap of trash on the ground , not even a piece of paper .

The only sign that people had been there was the many flower bouquets placed near the door , making it seem like no one had come at all .

Yeah , its over , Odalys said , stretching with a smile .

Selah and Francis had been expecting to have to work hard , but to their surprise , it had all ended so easily .

They felt a bit dazed .

I told you about the resource exchange .

Youll both have work soon , Odalys said with a smile .

Just as she finished speaking , her phone vibrated with a message Alright , fine .

Odalys said , then hung up the phone .

She motioned with her hand , and Selah and Francis instinctively stepped forward .

Odalys wrote a note and handed it to them , saying , One of the top three people in the line just now is the head of an entertainment company .

They just saw their child at the hospital .

To show their gratitude , theyre giving us access to an S level drama project .

Take a look at the script , you can choose any role , even the lead roles , Odalys added .

As soon as she finished speaking , the boss sent the script directly to her email .

Odalys forwarded it to Selah and Francis .

Freya and Stellan gathered around and , upon seeing the script , their eyes widened in shock .

So many people in the industry are fighting over this script .

I heard its a high quality one aimed at winning awards .

Ah .

Odalys .

I love you ! Selah said excitedly , rushing forward to hug Odalys .

Francis tightly gripped the script in his hands .

Though he was a model , he had acted before .

Many people didnt think hed succeed in transitioning to acting , but unexpectedly , his first project was an S level one .

This was all thanks to Odalys .

At first , he had thought she was just about Star readings , but he hadnt realized she was pulling strings to get them resources .

Were done for the day .

How about we go out to eat ? Odalys asked .

Stellan immediately raised his hand and said , Ill pick the place .

You all go ahead .

Ill join you soon .

Odalys said .

Selah wanted to wait for her , but Freya pulled her away .

After they left in the car , Odalys locked up the shop and was about to leave when a figure suddenly appeared , blocking her path .

Odalys ! Atlas stormed toward her , his expression dark .

Atlas stood in front of Odalys .

Seeing her look so energized , he couldnt help but feel unsettled .

The Bennett family had been in chaos last night .

Sophia had gone missing and hadnt returned all night .

Henry had been running a fever ever since he came back from the small clinic , and only this morning did he finally start to recover after taking some medicine .

Meanwhile , Odalys had opened her shop , and her business was booming .

Twitter was full of news about her , with shares surpassing a hundred billion , and the comments numbered in the billions .

The combined star power of all the top names in the entertainment industry still couldnt match her individual popularity .

Atlas couldnt understand what kind of magic Odalys had that made people lose their minds over her and desperately seek out her Star readings .

Whats going on ? Do you need something from me ? Odalys glanced at him coldly .

Odalys had a feeling Atlas would approach her , which was why she had told Selah and the others to leave first .

Watching Atlas angry expression , Odalys found it somewhat amusing .

The Bennett family were all good looking , but their brains were a bit too simple .

A few foolish men were completely captivated by Sophia .

Sophia went missing last night .

Did you have something to do with it ? Did you have someone kidnap her ? Atlas asked , barely holding back his anger .

Odalys couldnt help but laugh , stepping forward in a way that forced Atlas to instinctively take a few steps back .
