Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 520
Early in the morning, Dorothy was sitting out on the balcony, next to Rebecca, basking in the morning sunlight. “Are you sure this would help, Rebecca?” Dorothy looked very doubtful. “Don’t they say that sunlight causes cancer? You’re not trying to fuck with me, are you?” “As long as you don’t put on sunscreen lotion, then you’re going to be fine,” Rebecca said. “Sunlight heals, so stop getting anxious about it. Why do you think I’m sitting under it now? Because it cures depression without me having to do anything about it. Isn’t it making you feel better?” “Well, I still feel cold out here, but slowly, my body is warming up,” Dorothy said. “Nevertheless, the UV rays are a killer, aren’t they?” “No they are not. Like I said, as long as you don’t put on toxic chemicals on your skin and eat a proper, healthy diet, being in the sun is beneficial to your health, Rebecca assured. “I’ve asked some of my most trusted friends about this. One of them released multiple research papers on thi
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 521
Roshan was a tall and good-looking boy. He had many friends among both boys and girls, but he preferred to spend more time on the mobile playing games and chatting with strangers. He got a thrill from doing that.Currently, Roshan clumsily swam while video-chatting with a random girl he met online. “I did what you said. Now, it’s your turn.”“I don’t think I can do what you did,” she laughed, “because I’m an organic robot.”“Haha, good joke,” Roshan laughed along, “but there’s no way you can be a robot. I mean, you are so gorgeous.”“Thank you,” she smiled and tucked her hair behind her ear. “What do you want me to do?”“How about you stare at me without blinking?” Roshan said. “Whoever blinks first will get a command from the winner.”“Sounds fun.”They both started staring at each other. Roshan was good at it, but this girl seemed like an expert at doing it.“Roshan, what do you think you’re doing?” Rebecca entered the scene, startling him.“U-Uh, Aunt?” Roshan didn’t want to revea
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 522
After Roshan went into the building, Rebecca was sitting by the pool.“What are you thinking about, Aunt?” Lisa came to her, wearing a two-piece. “Aren’t you going to jump into the pool with me?”“No, I don’t like the pool, so you can swim by yourself,” Rebecca said.“Why not? I’ve never seen you swimming before. Are you afraid of water or something?” Lisa queried while jumping into the pool.“Not really, but I don’t like to use the pool that others use,” Rebecca replied.“Why not?” Lisa began to swim.“Long back, when I was in school, I went to the pool to swim and relax,” Rebecca explained, already shaking her head because of what she was about to say. “There are over a dozen women swimming in that same pool. I didn’t mind it, but then I saw the color of the water changing around a particular woman who was dancing. At first, I thought something was wrong, but then I soon realized that she was actually urinating.”“Ew,” Lisa suddenly felt like she was in the wrong place. She stopped

Rebecca fell into the pool.Lisa laughed happily and splashed water in her aunt’s face. Rebecca should have gotten angry, but she smiled instead. However, she did not swim but came out of the pool, despite Lisa asking her to swim with her at least for a few minutes.“I’m sure Aunt Veronica is going to get off the bed and act all cheery soon,” Lisa said.Rebecca’s expression, however, stayed the same. Even though she was somewhat smiling, Lisa could feel the sadness hidden beneath that soft face of her aunt.“Are you… still thinking about Benjamin?” Lisa hesitantly asked.Rebecca briefly looked at her and said in a voice that subtly melted in pain, “It’s very hard to forget someone who has given you so many memories. When he was with me, I did not think of him. Now that he’s no more, I think of him a thousand times a day. Every day feels like an hour, and I still look toward the gates every time they open, as if some part of me still believes that he’s going to come walking through tho
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 524
Bunny came to Brian’s home to give him an update, but Brian wasn’t in the mood to hear, so Bunny talked with his mother instead. “I’ve pretty much confirmed that Rebecca’s sister is infected with a parasite. A strong parasite at that, but what I’m not sure is if that’s a natural parasite or a synthetic parasite.”“Synthetic, you say…” Brian’s mom frowned. “Has technology progressed that far already?”“Yes, ma’am. The technology of The Swamp is at least half a century ahead of what the public is aware of,” Bunny said. “The technology of cloning, holograms, nanobots are being perfected for decades already. So, it could be possible that it’s a synthetic parasite.”“Are those the only two possibilities?” she asked as she wondered if Andrew Sehla was behind this.“There’s the third possibility, too,” Bunny frowned this time. “I read in ancient books that they fed parasites to indirectly kill people in babylonian times. Demons used to possess these parasites and make people go crazy. It’s h
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 525
“Are you talking about me, my loving sis?”Veronica’s voice suddenly came from behind, making the hearts of Rebecca and Akash jump into their throats.When they turned, Veronica was right behind them, appearing normal, but there was something different about her eyes and her smile. It was very subtle, but both of them felt it.“What are you two stupidly staring at me for?” Veronica asked and looked around. “What with all this garbage? Are these microscopes?” she waved her hand before her nose. “Hmff, what’s with this bad smell? It smells like chemicals.” She looked at Akash. “Is this your doing? Are you trying to get a PhD in biochemical engineering or something?”Her slightly arrogant look melted Akash’s heart, and he immediately stepped forward and hugged her emotionally. “I thought I’d never see you like this again.”“Huh, what are you saying? Why do you sound like I woke up from a coma?” she asked.“Because you kinda did,” Akash quickly told her what happened, even though Rebecca

In the underground vampire city, Shambol.Zakaria and Cranston were drinking fresh blood wine in a bar while a half-naked brunette was pole-dancing in front of them.“You said you sent a worm into the villa,” Zakaria said. “What can a mere worm do?”“Fool. That’s no ordinary worm. That’s the vril worm. The nastiest worm that’s said to be capable of even possessing a vampire,” Cranston said dramatically. “Of course, us vampires can fight back and coexist with it, but a human surely will have no way of fighting back, unless their mind and body is very clean. However, I highly doubt that anybody living in such a big villa will have a clean mind.”“Mm, vril worm… the name sounds like the name of the city lord,” Zakaria said. “Is there any relation, I wonder?”Cranston’s expression changed. He leaned closer and said in a low voice, “Denise told me that he’s from the Sorian tribe, one of the eight original races of the vampires. That’s why he was able to rebel against the previous vampire k
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 527
Veronica did not fight as Rebecca and Akash jumped on her and sealed her limbs to the four legs of the bed.“Hey, why are you doing this to me?” Veronica innocently said. “I’m perfectly fine. I just didn’t like the smell of the salt water, that’s all.”“I won’t trust you,” Rebecca picked up the glass which fortunately still had some salt water inside. She tried to pour a drop in Veronica’s mouth, but Veronica quickly shut her mouth. Nevertheless, when the salt water fell and soaked her lips, she began to convulse a little.Akash’s eyes widened. “W-Why is she shaking like she’s having epileptic seizures?”“I’ve got no idea,” Rebecca stopped pouring the water and moved back. “Maybe, the worm in her body is going crazy? I wasn’t expecting such a violent reaction, though. I guess I severely underestimated the effect of sea water.”“It won’t kill her, right?” Akash looked really tense and worried.“C’mon, it’s just salt water, dude,” Rebecca said. “You act like you’re hurt more than my sis

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

“Why can’t I meet him once?” Lisa yelled at her mom. “If you’re not going to let him see me, then I’ll leave this house!”“You think I’ll come running after you?” Elizabeth yelled back. “Leave the house if you want! No one is stopping you!”Lisa then angrily left the house and walked away on her bare feet, crying and shedding tears.It had been weeks since she had seen her dad, and she just wanted to talk to him once more and know how he was doing, but her mother was not even letting her contact her dad.Lisa didn’t know for how long she walked, but her stomach started growling.It was twelve in the afternoon, and she hadn’t eaten anything. So, she was really hungry now.She looked across the street.

In Sciocidad also known as the Sky City.“So she asked for more time…” Ryan sighed.He became the temporary ruler of the Wolfe clan.“Both Benjamin and Rye have left this seat, which is something that never happened before,” Ryan’s voice was gritty yet sad. “This doesn’t set a good example for the coming generations, especially given that we’re living in the end times.”“Don’t tell me, you’re planning on making someone else the sovereign?” Uzza quickly asked.“No, not yet,” Ryan replied. “We’ve lost a lot already. 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 relentless

She slowly turned me around.Our eyes locked each other.
EPILOGUE
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
CHAPTER 955
The moment blood gushed out of Rebecca’s neck, while her eyes were staring at him, Benjamin immediately snapped.“BENYAMIN~~!!”His roar reverberated through the hearts of all the people there, shaking their very souls.Benjamin’s suit was ripped to pieces as he grew into a mighty silver werewolf and leaped forth.In a flash, Benjamin’s claws cut through Benyamin’s shoulder and snatched Rebecca.Benjamin vanished from people’s sight and landed on the rooftop.Dahlia and Uzza took Benyamin and also vanished from there.Rye stood frozen, and so did Selena and everyone from the Sterling family.

They cast a wide spell together, which swiftly erased the recent memory of this wedding itself.However, they did not remove the memories of those from the Sterling family.Almost every guest collapsed on the floor afterward, but Selena and others were still standin
CHAPTER 954
The wedding night has arrived on time just like the full moon in all of its splendor.Rebecca did not look happy because Selena did not send invitations to most of the people she should have.Selena didn’t want this wedding news to be spread around the world, either, so she tried her best to suppress it from behind the scenes.Jacob also played his part in doing what his wife wanted him to.Shawn entered the villa, wearing a disguise, as he wanted to see his sister’s marriage and also see his wife and kids once.The wedding was taking place in the front yard.Benjamin was standing in the distance, far from the crowd.Jane and Veronica brought Rye out of the villa. Dressed in dazzling white, she looked like the walking moon.Benjamin didn’t even look in her direction as his back faced the villa.Holding a bouquet of white roses and lilies, she waited for the groom.Moments later, Benyamin also walked out of the villa, as escorted by none but himself.
