Betrayed, Yet Bound To The Billionaire by Grace Madeline

Chapter 576 I found out that the man named Simpson , his hometown addresses seem to be from the same place .

I checked it , and it doesnt exist , Callum explained I asked some of the older generation , and they said there was never such a place .

So , the address is fake .

But whats even more alarming is that the women who were also scammed , their partners also have hometowns that match the same location , and theyre all false .

It all points to the same person behind it all .

They are targeting emotionally vulnerable individuals .

And they share one commonality : their astrological signs , Callum continued .

He lifted his leg carefully , revealing th the side of his injured leg .

With a sudden tug , he peeled off a layer of fake skin .

Beneath it , a waterproof synthetic material was concealed, indistinguishable from real skin .

As he tore it away , a piece of paper fell out , which he handed to Odalys .

Mrs.

Stewart , take a look at this , Callum said , his tone focused These astrological signs are mostly from July , with a few from early April Callum noted .

Odalys glanced at the astrological signs , her brow furrowing even deeper .

They all have negative astrological signs , Odalys said .

Callum continued , I was going to dig deeper into these womens backgrounds , and 1 found that they , like Francis , were orphans no parents .

It all started to make sense .

The women attending high society training classes all had negative astrological signs and no parents .

And the men they were involved with , the ones they were deceived by , were also without parents .

Odalys fell silent , not sure how to respond .

I kept digging into it .

That night , after we had dinner , everything seemed fine at first .

But soon , one by one , everyone started to leave .

It was only around 10 PM , still early , but the street , once busy , was completely deserted .

The restaurant owner was nowhere to be found .

We realized something was wrong and tried to leave , but the food seemed poisoned .

Our phones stopped working , and we couldnt call out .

We tried to drive to the police , but as we went , we ended up in this fog , and thats when we lost consciousness .

I didnt fully regain consciousness until I was severely injured , nearly dying .

By then , it was too late to do anything .

I had everything ready , even drafted the message , but I couldnt send it , Callum said .

Callum thought , My hand still hasnt healed .

Im not sure if it will fully recover .

The damage is severe , and I fear it might never function properly Dont think about it for now .

Just rest and focus on getting better .

The important thing is that youre s There , Percival said .

Callum remained silent , feeling the weight of the situation settle over him .

The sense that something crucial was missing became overwhelming Mr.

Stewart , I feel like Ive forgotten something important .

I asked the others who were with me , and they couldnt remember either , not the most critical part , Callum said , his voice tinged with desperation .

We need to meet the man named Simpson , Callum added , his tone shaky as the gravity of the situation hit him .

Callum thought .

The closer we get to the truth , the more frustrating it becomes that my memory failed me at the most crucial moment .

Dont rush it .

If you cant remember , leave it for now , Percival advised .

Seeing Percival and Odalys beside him helped calm Callum , but the unease remained , gnawing at him from the inside .

Til handle the rest , Percival added .

Odalys remained silent , lost in her thoughts as she observed Callum .

After a moment , she turned to him .

Let me see your hand .

I want to check how bad the injury is .

Alright .

Thank you , Mrs.

Stewart , Callum replied .

Odalys examined his hand and relaxed her grip , seeing no significant issues .

You two continue talking .

Ill head to my room and shower quickly .

she said before leaving .

Chapter 576 Once she left , Callum looked at the door , feeling a slight mease .

He turned to Percival and asked , Mr.

Stewart , is everything okay between you and Mrs.

Stewart ! It feels like theres some tension between you two .

Am I too old Percival suddenly asked , his voice low .

Callum blinked in surprise , his mouth slightly open .

He couldnt believe what he was hearing .

His exaggerated reaction caused pain in his face , and he winced .

Mr.

Stewart , youre in your twenties , and Mrs.

Stewart is just 20.

Theres barely any age gap between you two .

Youre not worried about her age , are you ? Callum asked , now alarmed Callum silently prayed .

He thought , What if Percival ruins it after finally escaping his workaholic ways ? He used to be all about work , with no regard for relationships , but after meeting Odalys , he started to change .

What if he goes back to being single ? That would be disastrous for all of them Dont worry.

Its not that Im bothered by Odalys , Percival replied , his voice tinged with concern .

I just fear she might think Im too old for her or lack passion .

Callum looked at him , taken aback .

He thought , Is this something I should be hearing ? Is this even something Im supposed to hear ? It is completely different from what I imagined.

Mr.

Stewart , Mrs.

Stewart doesnt seem like someone who seeks out excitement .

Besides , you two get along well , right ? Maybe youre overthinking things .

Callum said , trying to reassure him , Callum was anxious , beads of sweat forming on his forehead .

He thought , A work driven , single minded president was easier to manage than lonely one .

If Percival stayed single again , it would be far more easy going , and work would feel much lighter for everyone ! Yes Percival nodded .

After discussing some work matters , Percival instructed the staff to prepare restorative drinks for Callum before heading toward the main villa When he returned to Stewart Villa , he passed Odalyss room .

He paused , hearing music softly playing from inside .

He stood there momentarily , then , remembering how tired she must be , withdrew his hand and turned toward his study instead .

The desk was cluttered with unfinished paperwork on real estate and land deals He sat down and began to work , losing track of time as he flipped through the files , unaware that night had fallen Meanwhile , Odalys had finished her shower and was drying her hair .

Stretching and yawning , she accidentally kicked something under the bed .

Groaning , she said , Who put these suitcases under my bed ? Crouching down , she pulled out three heavy suitcases .

At that moment , the door knocked Odalys looked up and said , Come in.

Freya and Selah rushed in , both excited and eager .

They had finished getting ready and were ready to join her .

Seeing Odalys bent down , dragging the heavy suitcases , they curiously leaned over to check .

Odalys , whats this ? Freya asked , her eyes wide ..

Selah leaned in , tugging at one of the suitcases , her brow furrowed as she said , What is this ? Its so heavy Help me pull it out , Odalys said , gesturing for them to assist .
