Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 550
A few hours have passed since Uzza returned to her room. Even though she didn’t leave her room, she could hear everything happening in the house.And none of their actions surprised her.Selena and some others came to her room and tried to be friendly with her, even though it hadn’t been long since they talked with her. They tried to keep her comfortable. Selena even went ahead and apologized for Rebecca’s slightly rude behavior.Uzza said it was okay since Rebecca was a young lady who was yet to reach motherhood, so Uzza said she never expected much patience or understanding from her. Her words also felt more insulting, but Selena didn’t argue with her.After Selena left, Uzza was smiling with disappointment. “There’s little to no transparency in this place. These people don’t act real. They don’t speak what’s in their hearts. How did you live in this shitty villa, Benjamin? Everybody tries to impress and take advantage of each other all the time. That’s not life. That’s just the ess
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 551
The moment Shawn entered the room, Uzza felt a deathly aura around him. She could straight away tell that he had murdered someone before. She couldn’t tell that in the past, but now, because he was having the thought of killing Uzza, he was subconsciously releasing killing intent, which Uzza could very much feel.“What are you here for, Mr. Insurance?” Uzza asked.Shawn was a bit surprised by the way she called him. (So she knows about the work I do. Then it’s safe to assume that she also knows a bit about my past.) “I’m a very capable insurance agent. And I believe I can help you.”“Help me?” Uzza raised her brows.“Yes,” Shawn confidently said.“With that scarf?” she asked.“What? N-No,” Shawn folded it and put it behind his back.A few seconds of silence passed.“Are you proud of what you do, Mr. Shawn?” she asked.“Of course, ma’am. I like my profession.”“Because it brings a lot of money into your hands through commission, aye?” Uzza said.“W-We all work for money in the end, do

Some time later.Veronica was sleeping soundly in Rebecca’s room because she was drugged heavily after the fight she put up. She started attacking Rebecca out of nowhere, and she was surprisingly strong. But Louis came in time and subdued her. Then they forcibly fed her sleeping pills and put her to sleep.Later that night.Rebecca was on the rooftop, sitting out in the cold, shivering. She kept looking up at the full moon, which had a beautiful glow all around it.“What are you doing here at four in the morning?” a voice came from behind her and almost scared her to death.Rebecca touched her chest and controlled her breathing after seeing that it was Uzza. “I was just not getting sleep, so I’m here, looking at the sky. The moon looks beautiful tonight.”“Moon, the mirror image of the earth, is indeed the prettiest thing in the sky,” Uzza commented, “but no matter how much focus you might look at it with, you will only see the same face of the earth and you won’t see your husband in

Veronica was whistling when Rebecca entered the room. “Unexpectedly, she looks happy,” Rebecca commented. “That’s what I thought as well,” Akash said, “but your brother told me that whistling is the way she attracts demons to come into her. Do you believe that demons exist?” Rebecca had seen vampires, so believing that demons exist didn’t feel all that hard now. “I won’t say for sure that they don’t exist.” “Mm?” Akash saw the glass bottle in her hand. “What’s that?” “Hydrogen peroxide,” Rebecca said. “For what? Nobody is wounded here,” Akash said. “No, you are going to apply this on Veronica’s skin,” Rebecca said. “I was told that this liquid will enter the body through our highly-absorbent skin and release the extra oxygen radical which then enters the bloodstream and kills all the germs and viruses, even the tumors. I’ve already given one bottle to Dorothy. Lisa is massaging Dorothy with this liquid right now. It is highly effective on patients, so it will work on Veronica, a
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 554
Jacob thought a lot about what to do with the current situation, and then he came to meet Uzza who was spending most of her time in the garden.“Do you have time to spare, ma’am?” he asked her.“I always have time,” Uzza said while she put a finger into the earth. “If not, I’ll make some time. So, go on.”Jacob didn’t know what Uzza was doing, but she was actually removing the acidic nature of the soil so that the bacteria would die and the plants would grow faster. This was her way of paying the trees back for the food she had eaten. When she pulled her finger out, it turned blue.“A-Are you alright?” Jacob was shocked by the color of her finger. “Did you get bitten by some spider or something?”“No, I’m totally fine,” Uzza squeezed her forefinger with the other hand, and a drop of liquid came out from underneath her finger nail. She flicked it away into the sky, and the drop of liquid never fell to the ground.“I have seen some crazy things with my own eyes,” Jacob said, “but I’ve n
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 555
Though Louis and Andrew had warned each other on phone, they couldn’t meet on that same night for multiple reasons. Louis had Uzza enter the Sterling villa, so he couldn’t leave. At the same time, Andrew also had some personal things to worry about because his son and daughter-in-law were quarreling a lot and were bringing shame to his name.Also, because of a cylone storm heading in their direction, the winds were whipping strong near the Sterling villa, strong enough to uproot the fruit and vegetable shop tent that Akash had built.The storm outside brought the people inside the villa close together.Most of them gathered in the hall and were talking about many things. Because the doors and windows were shut, it was rather calm inside.And Rebecca asked Uzza a question nobody expected, “Did you get married?”It was such a personal question that could easily offend someone, so everyone thought Uzza might get angry at Rebecca.“No, I haven’t,” Uzza said.“Then, do you have children?”
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 556
The storm was going strong. Many of the plants in the garden of the villa got uprooted and swept away, but surprisingly the grass was still able to stay where it was.Uzza was sitting on the balcony, under an extended ceiling, so that she stayed just out of the reach of the rain.“It’s funny how the big things fall first when the storm hits,” she thought to herself while drinking sweet and hot almond milk that went well with the rain.Amber and Kathy were wondering from the inside of the building why Uzza was sitting outside in such harsh weather.“Isn’t she afraid of getting hit by an object that comes flying in the wind?” Kathy blurted.“I would be. It’s better to stay indoors in this weather. She’s either reckless or just plain stupid,” Amber commented.“How long is this rain going to be there?”“I don’t know, but I heard that woman saying it will last for a day or two.”“That’ll destroy the whole damn garden!” Kathy cried out because she wouldn’t be able to earn money anymore. “Wh
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 557
Lisa came to her dad and asked, “Dad, can you give me some money?”“What for?” Shawn asked.“I’m learning some courses online, so…”Shawn liked what she said because she was focused on learning subjects even when a storm was rampaging outside. “I don’t have any money in my account,” he said because his accounts were frozen by the court after his recent case proved him guilty. But he got away with fine and not punishment, thanks to the influence of his parents as well as his own connections, some of which had to do with him promising others that they might have a chance at marrying Rebecca if they helped him. “But I will ask your mom and give it to you.”“Okay. Send it to my account, Dad,” Lisa said, then gave him a hug and quickly went to her room. She was still a minor, but she still had a bank account which was jointly opened with Rebecca. Neither Shawn nor Elizabeth knew of this, though.Shawn came to Elizabeth and asked her, “Do you have some money?”“How much?” Elizabeth, who was

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. There was a bakery.Lisa touched her pockets and frowned as she didn’t have any money.She put her hand on her abdomen and rubbed it for a few seconds and was then walking away.“Lisa, what are you doing here?” Benjamin who was traveling in a truck had just made the driver stop the vehicle

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

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. The guests were also thrown into chaos as a man had turned into a monster right before their eyes.Louis and Bella were quick to act. 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.
