Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 466
Veronica had always wanted to prove herself by getting a decent-paying job, so that her family members would give her some respect and don’t just treat her like a forever-child. However, hoping to get a job proved infinitely much easier than actually getting one that she believed she deserved. She used to love playing drums when she was young, but she didn’t pursue her interest to become a rock star because she didn’t want to leave home and go on tour all the time. It was too much work, she believed. Why work so hard when she could already go on a vacation once or twice every week? Most of her friends usually took over their family businesses and became doctors, lawyers, or started their own companies with the money they took from their parents. But what should Veronica do when she didn’t even really know what she was truly passionate about? She didn’t like being a producer like her father. Though she was interested in becoming an actress in the past, her mother was against it, sayi

Akash’s parents paid a visit to Dorothy and kept talking with her for hours, with Akash being the translator between them. Normally, Dorothy wouldn’t have talked with them for so long, but right now, she was happy that they kept telling her how to fight back on cancer by eating the seeds of apples, apricots and whatnot. They told her multiple ways to heal herself and rid her body of cancer within a few months.Veronica, on the other hand, was watching Elizabeth teach her daughter Lisa how to put on makeup.“Anything you put on your skin goes into your bloodstream within five minutes,” Elizabeth said, “so I will never put some random cream or gel on my body. I will only use trusted products made in factories I’ve personally visited. In fact, when I’m attending parties, I’ll wash my face with only distilled water because tap water is contaminated to an extent. From now on, I’ll take you along with me so you’ll learn how to avoid the toxic skin products and keep yourself beautiful foreve

As the flames of hell burned the demons all around, Benjamin fought the fallen angels with everything he got. What was worrying, however, was that these fallen angels only kept growing stronger as time passed. They kept receiving energy from above, which helped them to keep piling pressure as well as injuries on Benjamin’s body. “What happened to the man that defeated Azazel?” Uzza took the job of taunting and provoking Benjamin to anger while questioning his knowledge and capabilities. “The title of the sovereign of earth doesn’t suit someone like you! Our brother and boss, Satan, is the only sovereign there is!” The fallen angel Mansemat used his powers of destruction to bring his judgment on Benjamin by fighting him from the front, “The armies you’ve seen are not even a tenth of us, Human! We’re not allowed to roam the earth as we please right now, but once we get the chance, we’re going to lead everybody astray from the creator, and that includes your people, too! Either they li

A few days later.On Sciocidad, everybody in the clan attended Mina’s funeral. However, no funeral was conducted for the eight saints for nobody was sure if they died or were just taken away.New saints were chosen by a special method. All the chosen ones were young children who would eventually be groomed into saints, who would then hold more power than the elders and a little less power than the sovereign.After Rye gifted the newly chosen saints with clothes and tools, a clan meeting took place. All the elders and significant members of the clan gathered to discuss the future. Everybody expressed their opinions without hesitation.“Now that the vampire king has died, the lizards are growing restless in their pursuit for doomsday,” one man named Brooks said passionately after getting up from his seat. “They are kidnapping people and are seizing their bodies. We can’t let them keep doing this, or all the top, influential positions around the world will be filled to the brim with thos

Rye was faster than lightning itself. She went all out from the very beginning by imbuing red lightning into her leg.Ryan cross-blocked the kick with visible effort. “Going for the face of an elder, you’re quite rude, Rye.”“I don’t want to hear that from someone who doesn’t try to understand my feelings!” Rye spun in midair and went for Ryan’s midsection with an axing kick.Ryan blocked her skin with his right elbow before it struck his waist. The class of their spiritual energies didn’t destroy the environment around them but actually promoted the growth of the plant life, for both Rye and Ryan’s hearts were being driven by positive thoughts, despite how they tried to oppose each other.Rye kept her distance close and targeted his fists, wanting to make the soil in his hands spill to the ground no matter what.Ryan sucked in a deep breath and formed white spheres around his fists. These spheres not only helped Ryan defend from Rye but also be on the offense.Rye’s movements were li

Everybody on Sciocidad was in a joyful mood after Benjamin returned. A messenger bird was already sent to deliver the message to Shadow. This was not a living bird but a robotic bird driven by wind and electricity, which was generally also used as children’s toys.A trial was soon conducted on Benjamin, with the jurors being Ryan, Galen, and ten more elders. Being the current ruler, Rye herself was the judge.Rye was reading the document prepared by the scholars of the clansmen. “You were given the authority to sit on this throne and rule the people, which you did for a little while, and then you ran away from the sight of your people and didn’t return even after six months had passed. Do you have anything to say about it?”“I’m guilty about it,” Benjamin replied.“Aren’t you going to argue your own case?” Rye asked because there was no such thing as lawyers on Sciocidad. Every adult had to defend themselves in court. So, Rye didn’t like how Russell just agreed to being guilty without

An old lady entered a luxury watch store. She was in her pajamas and was carrying a small handbag strapped to her chest.The moment she entered, she received negative looks from the workers. “Grandma, where do you think you’re coming?” a female worker asked her.“I want to buy a watch, young one,” the old lady who seemed to be in her eighties said. “No, I want to buy two watches. One for my son, and another for his to-be wife.” She was about to sit in a chair.“Wait, don’t sit,” the worker quickly came past the desk and grabbed her arm. “You need to go out.”“Why?” The old lady seemed a little confused.“There’s nothing here that you can buy,” the worker exerted some force and pulled the old lady away. “If you want to buy watches for your son and daughter-in-law, then you should find a roadside mobile vehicle that sells cheap watches that look like the real ones. That’s going to make your son and daughter-in-law happy, I’m sure.”“But I can afford the watches in this store, young one,

Veronica rolled to her left and then to her right. She covered her ears with the pillow and squeezed it against her head, trying her best to sleep, but Akash’s snoring was being quite a bit of a nuisance to her.The noisy vibration just wasn’t letting her sleep.After struggling for a while, Veronica took her pillow and walked out of the room. She went straight to Rebecca’s room because she was used to sleeping with her sometimes, whenever she felt lonely in the past.However, when she entered the room, she was surprised to see Rebecca sleeping next to a pair of clothes. “That gray suit…” Veronica’s expressions changed because she remembered that the suit belonged to Benjamin. Did her sister miss him so much she was not able to sleep without feeling his presence next to her. (Did you love him that much, sis?) She pursed her lips.Compared to her sister, she felt that her love lacked very much. After all, she couldn’t even put up with Akash’s snoring, and she didn’t even try to attempt
