VKBoyHi, guys. I sincerely apologize for not uploading chapters these past couple of days. I've been having some personal issues, and we're also in the penultimate arc, so it's taking longer to write the chapters as I've been trying to tie things together nicely. I've planned the ending before I started writing the novel, but planning and writing are two different beasts locked in the same cage. They fight all the time, but it's always the writer that bleeds, haha.

Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 300
Damian’s attack was utterly destructive, but he looked over his shoulder, for Benjamin was now standing behind him. Damian immediately realized that what he had struck wasn’t Benjamin’s body but a mere mirage. Damian couldn’t recklessly swing his sword again, as his kingdom was right behind Benjamin. “If words can’t get to you…” Benjamin threw his fist and struck Damina’s jaw, sending him packing down the ten-mile deep crevice in the earth he had just made. Damian grew black wings and flew out of the crevice. His jaw was bruised, and it wasn’t healing. However, Damian was smiling. “Haha,” he was getting excited from the raw pain he felt. “A mere punch is making me feel a bit dizzy. I’ve never experienced something like this before. This is actually wonderful.” He came shooting down, thrusting his sword. “Celestial Flash!” Benjamin blocked the attack with his palm. “Ngh!” Sparks flew out, and the shockwave sent a ripple throughout the space and destroyed the ground under their feet a

Amaal and Brad together entered the room where Rebecca was being kept. She was still unconscious, but the maids immediately kneeled and lowered their heads. “We greet His Majesty.”“She’s a cutie,” Brad’s eyes brimmed with lust as he looked at Rebecca’s face. “I don’t mind doing it to her now.” He shamelessly and fearlessly expressed his wish. Having done so much for the kingdom, he believed Amaal would agree.However, Amaal had a frown going on his face. “Can’t you see the bruise on her neck?”“Mm? The bite mark? What about it?” Brad cluelessly asked.“It’s no ordinary bite mark. It’s an aegis seal,” Amaal didn’t look too happy about it.“What’s that?” Brad didn’t like where this was going.“During the ancient times, when many people started lusting after the neighbors’ wives and things were getting out of hand, some people came up with a seal to bind their wives with, so no one else but them could have sex with their wives.”“H-How’s it possible? Can’t we still put our dick in their
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 302
Growing up, Rebecca didn’t have any grandparents or aunts or uncles, but it was okay for her because her mother and her brothers and sister were enough for her as they would play with her, though only until she grew old enough to see through their lies.For instance, Louis would eat Rebecca’s food and say he didn’t. There was no need to lie. He could have said he ate her food, and she probably wouldn’t have minded that, but because of him lying, she was hurt more.Another day, she heard Shawn asking Sheron, the old maid, to cook sweets for him. When Sheron said she would also cook for the girls, Rebecca and Veronica, he told the maid there was no need to include them. Whatever his reason might have been, Rebecca cried inside.Her innocent mind would get hurt because of these heartless acts that would pop up often with every passing month.When she once went out on a trip with her family, she was buying ice cream from a tricycle cart, and a hungry street dog was looking at her.

Brad Bundy reached a specific room and opened the door. Sasha was inside, getting forcibly held down by the maids as she just tried to kill herself.Seeing Brad, the maids snatched the knife from Sasha and bowed to the chief commander.“I heard that the Prince married this woman,” Brad was looking at Sasha with obvious disdain in his face, “but I don’t see anything special about you. Unlike the other woman he brought, I can smell many men on you.”Sasha’s face scrunched. She had indeed dated many men and had sex with them, but she didn’t meet any other man after she met Damian. However, none of that mattered now. When the maids gave her fruits and a knife, she thought she had an opportunity to kill herself, but the vampire maids reacted fast and didn’t even let her kill herself.“Did you come here to violate me?” Sasha asked hesitantly, also wondering if Damian had sent Brad to her room.Brad faintly smiled and turned around, “I’m only interested in rare pieces. Your blood isn’t worth

The giant feathered serpent was the first to launch its attack a fraction of a second earlier than the other beasts. Benjamin leaped straight into its mouth and stood on its lower teeth. It tried to shut its mouth, but he stopped its upper teeth with his bare hands, so that it wouldn’t be able to crush him to death.The humanoid bull angrily smacked the serpent’s face with its club-like weapon, sending its long body rolling up and down the mountains until it fell into the hundred mile wide Nox River.All the other six beasts soon reached the ghastly river covered by pungent dark clouds.Benjamin was floating atop the river, surrounded by these seven horrid beasts, each looking menacing in its own right.The air was bitingly cold. The Nox river was massively wide, but it still seemed thinner than a stitching thread in relation to the vast lands it ran through. Some of the largest beings in the world like the feathered serpent or the behemoth, these extraordinary entities struck as anyt

The leviathan and the white ape, both of them suffered grave injuries from Benjamin’s attack and were also stuck at the bottom of the Nox river.Benjamin hoped the remaining five beasts would retreat from seeing that, but he couldn’t be more wrong.They attacked him all the more viciously, not giving him any time to breathe properly. Whirlwinds traced by the arm movements of Benjamin, which helped keep the beasts from overwhelming him. They moved around the woods, and the whole continent was like a battlefield to them. There was stupid joy on the faces of the beasts as the battle escalated and more of their blood got shed.Benjamin’s arms were quaking. He felt like his fingers might break from repeatedly clashing with these monsters with tough hides, but he came to this continent on his own. No one had forced him to be here. And he had to do everything by himself if he wanted to get his wife back from the hands of the evildoers running the world.Even though the beasts beat him down t

The morning turned to night in the Sterling villa.There was no news of Rebecca. The same was the case for Benjamin.Veronica was on the rooftop, crying for her sister, while staring at the main gate, hoping her sister would show up soon. She hadn’t eaten anything even though Delle and Amber had brought her food multiple times.Because she didn’t eat, Akash also didn’t eat.“Trust in Benjamin, Veronica,” Akash told Veronica, putting his hand on her shoulder. “He’s going to bring her back.”“I hope you’re right,” Veronica sniffled. Her eyes were still wet. “Everyone in my family put all kinds of conditions before giving me money, except my sister. She always tells me to spend it wisely everytime she gives me money. I owe her so much, but I’m unable to help her when she’s in a difficult situation. I’m still utterly useless.”“You’re not useless. Everyone has talent in something,” Akash told her. “You need to find out what you’re talented at. If not, at least stick with what you’re passi

“Let me show a tip of the iceberg of evil that has taken its roots deep into our world.” Ryan gestured to Louis and Bella, telling them to walk through the opening in the wall. And they did, albeit tensely.They kept walking in that dark tunnel, where there was no light, but being the vampires, they were able to see very clearly.“It’s pretty silent here,” Bella said. “I don’t hear anything.”“Yeah, I also don’t—” as Louis was saying, a hideous creature that suddenly came running toward them. Louis and Bella felt paralyzed by its scream, but before it could reach them, Shadow sliced through its neck and decapitated it. Even though its head fell on the ground, it still kept moving slightly. The same was the case for its torso, which was still standing and aimlessly walking around. “W-What the hell is this ugly creature?” Louis’ heart rang in his ears.“A mixture of man and lizard,” Shadow replied, waving his daggers to get the blood off of them. “A chimera created through experiments.

“How are things with your family, brother?” Fiona asked.Selena raised an eyebrow. “You’re in a family that deals with real-estate, so you should already know how we’re doing.”“Haha, I do, but outside information can only be trusted so much,” Fiona responded. “Recently, we’ve worked hard on getting a marriage deal for Fiona. Her fiance owns a reputed sports agency that deals with covering all the popular international sports. He earns hundreds of millions every year, but his father is a tycoon in the alcohol industry. Their net worth is in tens of billions.”“Good for you and your daughter,” Jacob smiled.“By the way, Brother,” Fiona glanced at Veronica and Akash. “What does Veronica’s husband do?”Jacob’s expression slightly changed.Veronica frowned and looked at her mother who was looking back at her with a rather poker face.“He is staying at home for now,” Veronica said openly.“Pfft, he’s jobless?” Riley snorted. “Your taste is so bad, Veronica, not just in terms of finding a pa

Benjamin went to the first floor and waited in the hall until Rebecca left her room.Then he went to her room. The door was locked, but he solidified his energy in the keyhole and opened the door.He entered the room quietly and saw the water bottle on the table next to her desk. It was half-full.Benjamin took out the vial and poured a drop of water into the bottle while saying ‘I love you, Rebecca.’He entered the bathroom and poured a couple of drops in the bathtub while once more uttering the three words ‘I love you, Rebecca.”He was about to come out of the room, but then he stopped and then ended up leaking another drop of water on the pillow, and another on the blanket. “I love you, Rebecca.”“Hopefully, this will help,” he thought.Benjamin then hurriedly left the room and then went to the rooftop. He mixed a few more drops in each of the four water tanks, while saying the words out, “I love you, Rebecca.”He looked at the vial.Three fourths of it was finished.He put the via

Despite Uzza, Rye, and Benjamin living in separate rooms, there were many guest rooms still available in the mighty Sterling villa, the best property on Rachel Hill.So, the families of Jacob’s siblings stayed in those rooms without any issue.But the problem was with the cousins, who were trying to show off. They acted arrogant and haughty with Veronica and even mocked Rebecca for the little hair she had on her head, not even bothering to wonder why exactly her hair was like that.Rebecca didn’t even bother talking to them, or sparing a word with them because she knew how selfish and self-centered these people were.Jacob and Shawn might have forgiven these people, but Rebecca couldn’t just act like nothing ever happened.She didn’t treat them badly, either. She just ignored them and minded her business.However, her cousin sisters got their eyes on Benyamin who was quite good-looking. Her cousin brothers were also unable to avert their eyes from Rye.Rye looked more like an exotic f

CHAPTER 899
So many people started visiting Sterling villa ever since Selena herself had leaked the news of her buying a lot of land and buildings in Aurora Hills.Selena was sitting on the balcony, with Veronica next to her.“Why has the traffic increased so much?” Veronica said, “I’m seeing so many cars come and go recently.”Selena somewhat smiled and sipped on cream coffee. “I wasn’t born rich, Veronica. My relatives didn’t even let my parents into their homes or invite us to their functions because we were poor as church mice.”“Stop joking, Mom,” Veronica smirked with amusement. “You look like a million dollars. I’m sure our relatives’ sons back then would have wanted to marry you.”“You’re not entirely wrong, but they didn’t want to marry me as much as they wanted to mess with me,” Selena said. “I still remember one guy telling me, ‘I may look ugly as hell, but I can show you heaven in bed.’”Veronica went silent in shock. She didn’t think her mother’s beauty would have brought such terrib

Delle was bringing food, three varieties, on a big plate.Rye intercepted and took the plate from her. She brought it to Benjamin and sat by him under the tree.The grass was cool, even though the breeze was warm.“You think I haven’t noticed that you weren’t eating anything since you made that 40-day promise?” Rye said. “You were just acting like you’re eating.”She broke the bread mixed with fruit and brought it closer to his mouth.He didn’t open his mouth.“Do you want me to stop eating just like you are doing?” Rye said.Benjamin, who was staring into the distance, glanced at her. “Is it possible to love and hate at the same time?”Rye pursed her lips together, not quite understanding why he asked such a question. “I was angry with the things you did. I am still angry, but I don’t hate you. So, if you really love someone, I don’t think you can hate them.”“If there is no hatred in his heart, then how is Neel able to do this to me?” Benjamin asked, a hint of pain laced through his

Rebecca and Benyamin had breakfast together.This nearly made Selena’s eyes bleed. She didn’t think she’d live a day like this.Watching them eating happily was like injecting poison into her body.While she loved seeing her daughter happy, she couldn’t spare any mercy on the man who tricked her daughter into marrying him.Even now, she was thinking in her heart, devising plans on how to separate her daughter and her husband.Having lost the mood to eat breakfast, she came to the backyard.Amber was preparing the background setting needed for the interview.“Where’s Kathy?” Selena asked.“S-She’s with Samuel Sehla, ma’am,” Amber hesitantly said.Selena’s gaze turned a little icy, but then she smiled. “I knew Kathy had it in her, but I didn’t think she’d be able to grab the attention of someone like Samuel Sehla.” She looked at Amber. “What about you?”“I-I don’t plan on grabbing anybody’s attention,” Amber quickly replied.“Tsk, tsk,” Selena shook her head. “Try to grab Benyamin’s att

The next morning.Rebecca came out of her room fast and reached the dorms just to check on Benyamin. She found him brushing his teeth with his finger. And he was using salt.“Don’t you have a brush and toothpaste?” Rebecca quickly asked. “You should have asked me then.”“No, I’m fine with this,” Benyamin replied. “The smell of the chemicals in the toothpaste just makes me feel nauseous, so I’m fine with just this sea salt.”“But… will salt be enough?”“It’s enough,” Benyamin gave a thumbs-up. “In fact, I’m worried about you because you’re using that chemical-ridden toothpaste which dullens your brain.”“If they dullen the brain, then why would they promote toothpastes so much on television?”“They will promote everything that will make them money while keeping the people sick, so that they will not be able to think clearly and would rather depend on the government to think for themselves,” Benyamin smiled.“That’s not funny,” Rebecca hissed. “I have to go and brush my teeth. And I’m f

Later that night.Benjamin was out in the garden, sitting under a tree, doing nothing as hours went by.“He’s been like that since dinner,” Rye was watching him from the first floor’s window. “It’s not good.”“What can I say?” Uzza was feeling heavy-hearted. “It feels like the story of Abel and Cain altogether, though in a different way. The brothers that represent the duality of current man. The devil sure knows how to mock us and make us angry. I’m certain now. It’s his plan. He put the sworn brothers against each other.”“But how did he get Shadow?” Rye frowned. “I don’t sense any demonic energy in him.”“Considering Shadow’s abilities, it’s easy for him to hide the demonic energy,” Uzza opined. “He’s a perfect place for demons to hide, though I don’t know how they got hold of him. He must have been caught by surprise. I just hope that this won’t lead to something disastrous.” She was looking at Benjamin. “The longer this goes, the more likely that someone among those is going to b

Veronica brought Akash with her to dinner. Almost everybody was present at the dinner table after a very long time.New tables were arranged because there were more people now.Veronica could see that Akash was not taking his eyes off Benyamin. “Why are you staring at him nonstop?” she asked in a low voice.“He’s tall, handsome, and so fair. Even his hands are so shiny. How’s that possible for a man?” Akash sounded quite envious. “Men are not supposed to look so good-looking, right?”“Mm…” Veronica looked at Benyamin and felt the same. “He does look like a million bucks, but he doesn’t seem to have much muscle on his body. What’s the point of being tall when you don’t have enough muscle? You only look like you have inadequate genes.”“Not every man can be built heavy like the men in your family.”“Haha, you’re right,” Veronica was proud of her brothers and dad because they were tall and big and good-looking. Their jaws alone would melt the gazes of many women, after all.Rye and Benjam
