“S-She’s the woman Lord Benjamin has chosen?”

“Why’s she so ugly?”

“He chose her over Lady Rye? Lord Benjamin must be blind!”

Dozens of teenagers had gathered around the bench where Rebecca was lying unconsciously.

“You’ve seen her enough. Now, leave, so she can breathe!” Mina barked at them, and they ran away like scared little cats.

In the garden, Galen and Rye were both standing, facing the south. Mina came up to them.

Rye glanced at Mina with a frown on her face. “Are you sure he didn’t say anything?”

Mina slowly shook her head. “He just left without saying anything. I told him to stop, but he didn’t.”

Rye’s heart was ringing in her ears. “What is he thinking?” She couldn’t hide her anxiousness and began biting her nails. “He’s been hiding everything from me. And I thought I was his best friend. Does he think I will stop caring for him just because he refused to marry me?”

Galen gently put her hand on Rye, trying to comfort her.

“I’ve sent a message to Ryan,” Mina told them. “We w

    Two days later.Shadow and Ryan had bought a lot of items and now came to a butcher’s shop and ordered 100 kilos worth of chicken. However, the meat that was given to them was not fresh. It wasn’t soft and didn’t have the sufficient blood content in the flesh, so they were able to tell straight away that the meat had been frozen for weeks if not months.Shadow was already so frustrated with all the things happening, so he was about to kill the owner. Ryan stopped him.Ryan then warned the owner, “You’ll earn fifty to hundred percent extra profit by selling rotten chicken, but you’re playing with the lives of your customers by doing this. If I tell your customers about this, do you think they’ll let you live?”The owner, however, arrogantly said, “I’m not the only one who does this. Many restaurants do the same. I only sell rotten chicken, but they fry these rotten chicken in their degraded oil.”Ryan slapped the owner so hard many of his teeth flew out. “Don’t cover your wrongdoings b

    “I’ll give you one minute,” Galen warned Rebecca. “Either you pick up those seeds and eat them, or you’ll have committed an offense against someone who brought you back to health.”Rebecca was very much surprised to hear those words. “Y-You nursed me back to health?”Galen didn’t respond and just kept staring.Rebecca had no idea how long she was out. Whether Galen might have really helped her or not, eating the seeds seemed like a way better option than scooping poop from barns. So she picked up the seeds and cleaned them with water before swallowing them with great effort.“The seeds can offer much more than the flesh of any fruit,” Galen said, “so you should eat them, crunch on them, not swallow them, or they’ll just be flushed out through the intestines.”“Uh, can I see Benjamin now?” Rebecca asked. “Where is he? Can you take me to him? I want to see him.” She felt like she had separated from him for a very long time.Galen and Mina briefly looked at each other. “I’ll show her aro

    “Who are you?” these words flowed out of Rebecca’s mouth before she knew it.“Who am I?” Rye smiled somewhat angrily. “I’m the only one who can save Benjamin from the situation YOU put him in.”Stress formed on Rebecca’s forehead. “W-What situation?” The closer Rye got to her, the harder her heart pounded. She could already sense a slight hostility in Rye’s eyes.“Benjamin might have made a deal with the accursed Vampire King to free you from their clutches,” Rye hissed softly. “Otherwise, he would be here with us now, but he’s not here because of you. He has stayed away from his home for so long because of you. If only you didn’t exist—”“That’s enough,” Mina intervened. “Don’t say things you’ll end up regretting afterward.”“I’m only stating the truth,” Rye pushed Mina aside and looked right in Rebecca’s eyes. “I don’t know what sort of tricks you used to wrap Benjamin around your finger, but you don’t deserve him. Not one bit.”Rebecca couldn’t help but frown. She felt like her sit

    At the Sterling villa.Many people from the neighborhood entered the villa and bought fruits and vegetables from the grocery store situated in the front garden. Amber was selling the groceries, and she looked like a happy woman, as if her dream had come true.Every customer had nothing but praises for her. Because the size and quality of vegetables and fruits growing inside the walls of the Sterling villa were so high, many people flocked to buy the limited natural goods.Many customers asked Amber, Akash, and every other person living in the villa how they were able to grow such powerful plants that could yield so wonderfully.However, everyone gave the same reply, “I’m sorry. It’s a secret.”It was Ryan who had built a cultivation mechanism that harvested the ethereal energy through antennas using high-conductive metals such as copper and replenished the magnetic fields of the earth, thereby promoting the growth of plants. So, the earth inside the walls of the villa currently thrive

    Jacob Sterling hadn’t left the villa in more than forty days, even though Selena and others had told him it’s not healthy to stay indoors for too long. He wasn’t even going for his morning walks anymore.Shawn entered Jacob’s room. His dad was lying on the bed, staring at the TV, but his eyes were out of focus.Shawn sat down next to his father. “Dad, how long are you going to lock yourself in this room?”“I’m not moving anywhere until I receive the remaining money from Ryan.”Shawn sighed at his father’s response. “Everybody is waiting for that money, but I doubt we’ll ever get it. If Benjamin is dead because he went out to save Rebecca, why would his father care to give us money so we can live happily?”Though Shawn’s words made sense, Jacob refused to believe it. “I have the documents with me. I’ll fight in court if necessary, but I think Ryan will give me the money in a few days.”“But he went somewhere yesterday. Do you know that?”Jacob sat up at once. “What? Where?” His eyes sh

    In the backyard of the Sterling villa.Lisa and Roshan were intently watching the groups of ants walking in different curved lines and then fighting each other at times. Eventually, one group of ants won over the other, and the siblings began clapping. “Aunt Bella’s ants won!”The ants were controlled by Louis and Bella not through mind waves but through sound waves that normal humans were unable to hear.Louis’ ants lost, so he had to do ten squats.“Can you control us like the ants, Uncle?” Roshan asked Louis. “ Make me and Lisa fight each other so we’ll see who’ll win.”Lisa was not that excited by that idea, and the same was the case for Louis and Bella.“We can control humans to an extent, but it’s dangerous,” Bella explained. “Sometimes, if things go wrong, you’ll go crazy.”“What?” Roshan was shocked. “We will go crazy? Like zombies-crazy?”“That depends,” Louis looked around and spotted two crows that landed on banana leaves. “Look at those crows.” He began mumbling in a stran

    Shadow took only two seconds to get to the rooftop where Zakaria and Cranston were, but the moment he arrived, they abandoned the casket and flew high into the sky.“Awakened vampires? Come down, you cowards!” Shadow yelled, but it didn’t work. He wouldn’t be able to chase them now, but they stopped by the lowest clouds. “Going that closer to the sun? These guys must be Life Leechers.”Zakaria and Cranston injected the cloud with something and made it shoot thunderbolts down, forcing Shadow to keep moving around. The cloud chased him around the city.Dozens of thunderbolts rained down on the rooftops in the middle of the day when the sun was out, which left the citizens baffled by this strange phenomenon they had never seen before.At the same time, the casket that the vampires had abandoned now moved.Meanwhile, in the Sterling villa.A couple of minutes ago.Selena was sitting on the couch, making diverse, micro investments in different companies. She only put 20% of the money she h

    Shadow was forced to move away from the city by the repeated lightning strikes.“It seems their intention is to separate me from Rebecca. But Louis and Bella are in the villa. They are not awakened, but they are experienced. They should be able to take care of any trouble that may show up. Still, I should get rid of these two as fast as possible.”Shadow stopped on a hilltop.A thunderbolt came shooting down at him. He took his dagger out and deflected the bolt.“Huhoo…” Zakaria was pleasantly surprised. “Did he just deflect a freaking lightning bolt? How fast can this bastard move? If he was able to fly, we would have been in trouble.”“Let’s take him to ‘that’ place,” Cranston said. “We’ll look for an opportunity and leech the life out of him.”Both of them stopped attacking with the lightning bolts and led Shadow into the underground tunnels.Shadow understood what they were up to, but he fearlessly entered the tunnels anyway. He tracked the vampires down through the dark tunnels f

    Some days later.Sofia Myers ordered pizza from an apartment she had recently bought.And to her surprise, it was Benjamin who delivered it.“It’s you?” Sofia remembered him. “Aren’t you Rebecca’s husband? You both are having an official wedding soon, right? Why are you still working as a pizza-delivery guy?”“I have my reasons,” Benjamin replied. “And it’s more of a part-time job now.”“Okay, come on in,” Sofia told him.When he entered the apartment, there were over a dozen females there, smoking and drinking.“This guy is Benjamin, a mighty pizza-delivery guy who married a bald woman,” Sofia started making fun of him to make her friends laugh.Benjamin quickly countered her, saying, “It seems your husband has left you to your pleasures. I’m not surprised, though I might not have done the same thing.”Sofia gritted her teeth and threw her mobile at him.Benjamin caught it with ease. “A woman who easily gets angry will have a hard time obtaining a place in any man’s heart.”“Get the

We can’t be wasting our people’s time or give them false hope. It is better to pick a new ruler, but I will wait a little longer.”Even though Ryan didn’t say it, Uzza felt that the time limit would probably be six months.“Come back soon, Rye,” Uzza wished in her heart.Elsewhere in the same city, in a dark dungeon.“With a friend like you around, what’s the need for enemies?” Benyamin was hissing at Dahlia as she poured her spiritual energy into Benyamin’s spine relentles

    A few days later.At six in the morning.Rebecca woke up and found Benjamin resting with his head at her legs. “Benjamin, why are you sleeping the other way? You’re not a cat. Sleep next to me!”Benjamin rolled over to her side and lay next to her, sharing the same pillow. “Last night, I woke up for water, and then I saw the mole on your thigh, and I wanted to sleep next to it.”Rebecca’s face flushed very much. “Stop it, you are talking like a child!”“Aren’t we both still children in our relationship?” Benjamin gently touched her chin and planted a kiss on her cheek.Rebecca’s face gained some more blood. The same could be said for Benjamin. Both of them were fair and were in the prime of their age, so they appeared a thousand times more attractive when blood rushed to their faces.After Benjamin kissed her, Rebecca felt her emotions stirring up again. She pulled the blanket up and covered both of them and hugged him tightly and showered kisses on him.“I think it’s time for breakfa
