Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 616
“It’s been fifteen minutes since the wolves left,” Benjamin said. “I think we can step out now.”“How do you know that a few of them are not hiding from our sight?” Shawn said. “They could be on top or under this jet, for all we know.”“If it’s one or two, then we can easily scare them away with our numbers,” Benjamin said.His words made sense, but nobody said anything.“We have to get the pilots, or we’ll be stuck here,” Benjamin said. “Isn’t it strange that nobody came to help us even though so many wolves attacked us?”His words made everyone think. Jacob was already doubting what happened, and Benjamin’s words only strengthened that doubt.“Now that you said it…” Shawn was also having the same doubt, but the women didn’t think the same.“Are you saying that they let the wolves free to attack us?” Rebecca asked. “Why the hell would they do that?”“We’re the last ones leaving,” Dorothy said. “So it makes sense that they chose to only attack us. But why would they do that?”“Maybe t

“It’s been forty minutes,” Elizabeth was checking time on her 15K watch. “And there’s no sign of him or anyone for that matter.”“Yeah, this is very strange…” Dorothy was growing nervous. She looked at her husband, but Nolan was snoring loudly. He had drunk so much during the party, and now, he was down and out. Even if a thunderbolt were to crash right next to the jet plane, he might not wake up right now.Lisa and Roshan were playing a game on playstation.Selena was checking her mobile for a signal, but there was no signal. “Let’s say we wait for twenty more minutes, and he doesn’t return. Then what?” she asked a question.“Then we’ll grab whatever sharp objects we can,” Jacob said, “and get out together. As long as we fight together, we can chase even the wolves.”“I wish we at least had a gun,” Shawn said. “It was foolish to come so far without a gun. This place is built on a mountain, so no one can hear us even if we shout. Going down the mountain is also too risky. We have to f

“My legs are still killing from standing during the party,” Dorothy kept repeating the same words for the past five minutes, since the jet started flying.“Hey, you,” Elizabeth looked at Benjamin. “Can you not hear my mom’s pain?”“Yeah, her legs are hurting. I can hear that,” Benjamin said. “What can I do about it, though?”“You should massage her legs,” Elizabeth said with entitlement. “She’s old and doesn’t have enough strength in her fingers, so you should help her.”“Sorry, but can’t you do that since she’s your mother?” Benjamin asked what he thought was a valid question.“I’m not good at it,” Elizabeth blurted. “You work at a pizza-shop, right? So, you must have the experience of squeezing dough. Just do the same but with more softness and less intensity.”“Can’t you tell your kids to do the same?” Rebecca asked Elizabeth, clearly not liking how her sister-in-law was trying to make a slave out of Benjamin and also shame Rebecca at the same time. “If you are going to say that th
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 619
Dorothy made Benjamin massage her feet and legs twelve different times, which totaled more than an hour. But on the thirteenth attempt, Rebecca intervened and said, “Enough. He has to make pizzas with those hands. Do you want them to smell like your feet?” she was visibly enraged by the fact that Dorothy dared to use her husband like a slave for so long.If Rebecca hadn’t fallen asleep, she wouldn’t have let Dorothy treat Benjamin like this. Once or twice was fine, but thirteen times during the journey itself? This was ridiculous in her eyes. She understood that Dorothy was not just doing this on purpose but probably also had some very ill intentions behind it.Dorothy did not dare to talk back to Rebecca as that would force her to leave the villa with her husband sooner than they would be willing to.So, Dorothy didn’t ask for Benjamin’s services after that.Eventually, they reached the villa in Selena’s vanity van. Everybody happily entered the house, feeling like there was no bette
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 620
A few minutes later.Benjamin was on the rooftop, sitting alone on a swinging chair, plucking leaves off a stem. He remembered Rebecca’s words: We’re going to have kids not when you want but when we want.“She’s right, but… if we have kids, it’ll be easier for me to introduce her to my people,” Benjamin thought. “They’ll just accept our marriage without any complications. Otherwise, there will be unnecessary events happening.”Just then, a parrot fell on the rooftop. It seemed to have suffered an injury to one of its wings.Benjamin noticed it but didn’t move and just observed. Another parrot came and stayed with the fallen parrot and tried to help it fly in all ways possible.Touched by their efforts, Benjamin got up. As he got closer, the male parrot screamed and flapped its wings as it tried to defend its lady.Benjamin stopped and said, “She needs some treatment. I can’t do anything if you don’t let me get closer.”The parrot still kept screaming, vocalizing in many different tone
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 621
Since Rebecca told him that they were going to watch a movie at a theater, Benjamin waited eagerly for the evening to come.He had already booked two tickets for a movie, and then began to do all kinds of housework as he waited for the sun to go away.In the afternoon, only Lisa and Roshan came for lunch. They insulted Devon when he put food on their plates without asking them first. They also looked at Benjamin and told him to mind his business.He let go of their actions, thinking they were probably in a bad mood, even though they were both busy texting on mobiles while eating.After they finished eating and left the table, Devon began to clean those two spots.Benjamin could see that Devon was hurt, but Devon was good at controlling his emotions. He didn’t feel like he should say anything as it might embarrass the old man.Just then, someone entered the hall and said, “Are you Benjamin?”“Mm?” Benjamin looked at this man who was wearing vintage clothes, and a lizard was sitting on
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 622
As Rebecca was driving in the car, Benjamin was looking out through the window and observing the reality of the world. He could see all colors of life from lovers holding their hands to beggars sleeping on the footpaths.Some were living in happiness, but some were breathing in pain.Some were living in the box, and some were living outside.Some people were overexerting themselves and invited pain into their bodies, whereas some couldn’t work properly because of the pain already playing with their minds and bodies.Watching this wasn’t pleasant to his eyes. If watching life in motion itself was painful, then how much more painful should life itself be?And Benjamin believed that love was the only medicine for the type of pain he was having right now.Why was he feeling the pain?There wasn’t any ground-breaking reason, except that Rebecca didn’t let him sit beside her. He felt like he was being treated like a distant person to her, which was something very hard to digest. It would ha

Did Benjamin just break the coconut by bashing it against his knuckles?The crowd went speechless because what he just did was totally beyond their expectations. Even the event manager took ten seconds to recover and then said, “Y-You broke it. Congratulations.”“What?” some of the crowd immediately raised their voices. “How can he break it so easily? It must have been a defective piece!”“Yeah! Are you trying to fool us?”“He must be your set-up, right?”“You planned all this so that you didn’t have to give any of us the gift you prepared!”“What a scam!”As the people ran their mouths, the event manager quickly said, “I don’t know these two. It’s my first time seeing them.” He looked at Benjamin. “Sorry, Mister, but can you break another coconut and show them that you didn’t do it by luck?”“No problem,” Benjamin said and walked to the heap of coconuts put on the stage. He picked one into each of his hands and smashed them together, breaking them in one attempt. The sound it made as

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
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. 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.
