Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 345
The incident with Edward made Rye and Dahlia become completely aware of what level they were at compared to Benjamin and Neel.Wanting to get strong, they took Ryan’s permission and entered the sacred forest and spent many months there, fighting and training and pushing themselves past their limits time and again.By the time they came out of the forest, both of them grew so tall, they were a couple of inches taller than Benjamin and Neel.Rye, who had a neutral expression on her face, couldn’t maintain it after seeing Benjamin. She smiled and scuttled over to him and gave him a big hug. They exchanged kisses on the cheeks. It was evident she really missed him. He missed her, too.Dahlia copied Rye and ran over to hug Neel, but he kept moving back, which angered Dahlia. “H-How did you grow so tall in just a few months?”“Hahaha, I can now look down on you. I feel satisfied already,” Dahlia laughed and plucked the tamarind candy he was hiding. “You bought candy for me? That’s sweet of

Rye fought Benjamin every day and lost every single time. But she didn’t give up because she felt like she was closing the gap slowly but surely.When they reached 13 years of age, they were taught about the outside world and the dangers associated with the elites, the shadow government, and the vampires.Benjamin was especially told of his responsibilities by Erwin who was an accomplished scholar in the clan. He took private classes for Benjamin, and so Rye couldn’t spend time with Benjamin anymore, which frustrated her to no end.Benjamin was taught about the cultures and technologies of both the old and the new. He was taken to the dungeon and was shown all the criminals, some of whom were vampires. He was made to fight the vampires of all kinds. As he read the wolfe-clan’s exclusive books about history, he came to realize how messed up the world below was.Currently, Benjamin was sitting by a lake with rabbits and deers grazing in the background.“My predecessors tried to get rid

In the moonless kingdom.The scientists were time and again astonished by the readings they obtained from torturing Benjamin.“This guy is unbelievable,” Bob, the head scientist, said to the group of visitors. He was a dwarf with six fingers on each hand and had an abnormally long head like Brad Bundy. But because his head could be squeezed like a sponge, he came to be known as Bob the Spongehead. “We’ve tried to alter his genes, but we couldn’t corrupt his DNA strands. We’ve been extracting millions of volts of electricity from him for weeks to weaken him, yet his body keeps generating more energy. What’s crazy is that his mitochondria don’t show any signs of exhaustion. It’s as if he can generate an infinite amount of electricity.“Even the demons that His Majesty Amaal talked about didn’t seem to have had much effect on him. He’s definitely distressed, but his brain signals show that he’s still very much awake and aware of what’s going on around him. I’ve never handled a subject li

Seeing Benjamin in a suit, Dahlia was amply surprised. He had a neat haircut and was wearing a suit, which should look soft and cute, but there was nothing soft or cute about him now because his gaze was like that of a predator. The male energy as well as his killer’s gaze gave him an intimidating outlook even though he hadn’t moved an inch.“It’s definitely not Benjamin, alright,” Dahlia said, her long blue hair waving about in the wind, making it difficult for her to speak. A normal person wouldn’t even be able to stand let alone talk without shivering in such cold, but she seemed pretty fine. About sixteen years ago, she was taller than Benjamin and was almost as fit as him, but now, she was slightly shorter than him. Compared to Rye, she looked small and pudgy. “It doesn’t look like he’s even trying to hide that.”“Maybe he knows it's useless to try and fool us,” Mina opined. “They used to wear masks in the past to deceive the public, but now they can create almost perfect clones.

Rebecca woke up to find herself sleeping in her room in the Sterling villa. Her head felt heavy and was still hurting from having drunk too much. “Ugh… how did I get here? I remember I was in the bar, and…”Just then, Veronica entered the room with a newspaper in her hand. “Sis, how are you feeling now?” she asked but got no response. “In case you’re wondering, Brother Louis brought you home.” She sat down on the bed and showed her the newspaper.Rebecca couldn’t help but see the section where a fashion model was found dead in her apartment. Rebecca covered her mouth in shock and began to read the news.“You know her, don’t you?”“Monica… She’s one of the smartest women I know,” Rebecca frowned deeply. “She was eating cotton balls to keep her figure and was struggling for fame. After I saw that she was being cornered by some rich clients of the industry, I helped her and gave her the boost necessary to fuel her career growth, but it seems some bastard trapped her.” Rebecca gritted her

“In the past, clothes were made to fit people,” Andrew Sehla was playing chess with Arlo Campbell. “These days, people are trying to fit into clothes. That’s how much the minds of people have degraded. My second granddaughter is no exception. She liked a dress, and now, she’s on a diet to fit into that dress.”“Isn’t that still beneficial to her if she reduces her weight?” Arlo opined.“Yes, but not when it’s for a fucking dress,” Andrew hissed. “Will she reduce her weight if her mother asks her to slim down? Will she do it for her boyfriend? I doubt so. If you’ve got any idea to bring her narcissistic levels down, I’d appreciate it, or am I throwing the wrong question at the wrong person?”“I can’t give you a philosophical answer if that’s what you’re expecting.”“You can be blunt. I won’t mind it.”“You have to do it the cruel way. Make her realize that she’s not entitled to anything you own,” Arlo blurted in an almost emotionless tone.“Won’t that make her rebellious?” Andrew wonde

Rebecca was traveling in a bus just because she wanted to stay from the Sterling villa, and she thought she could spend time this way.Louis was also in the bus, but he was in the back, wearing a hood. What Louis didn’t know was that Alfred was also in the same bus. He was sent to watch over Rebecca just in case Louis couldn’t handle things by himself.Alfred sat in a spot where he could see Rebecca’s face, and she looked either sad or emotionless for the most part, but there were times she smiled briefly, making Alfred wonder what she was thinking about.Rebecca remembered the time when Benjamin and Rebecca entered a bus touring through a film studio for promotion purposes, and there were a lot more people in the bus than what the seats could accommodate. Everyone in the Sterling family sat down, except for Rebecca and Benjamin. Rebecca had offered her seat to an old lady, so she had to stand. Because of the large crowd, people were pushing each other around, especially to see Selena

Louis found it difficult to keep watching Rebecca cover more than five miles on foot. Even his hardened vampire heart stung a little when Rebecca stopped at a junction and couldn’t decide which direction she should take.“What’s she thinking about?” he could only wonder.Rebecca, however, was just trying to guess what road would take her closer to Benjamin so she could keep going in that direction because she had no intention of returning to the villa.As she was thinking, she remembered a short conversation with Benjamin. When they were traveling in the car, he asked her to let him drive her car. She refused. He then told her, “What are you afraid of? You think I’m going to take you south?” He said those words because the sterling villa was on the northern side of the city compared to Rye’s Pizzas and where Rebecca worked. So moving south would be the same as moving away from the Sterling villa. Was this Benjamin’s way of telling her his home was in the south?Thinking back on it, sh
