Rebecca and others returned home.

Rebecca did not take her purse out of her car. She even left the dress she bought.

When was the last time she had someone else buy anything for her? It had been years, and she didn’t even remember the last time it happened.

She didn’t want to owe anything to anybody. But if she were to give the money that cost for the dress to Benjamin, it wouldn’t look good on her part. So, she wanted to return the favor in another way.

But how?

After some thinking, she brought a sealed pair of inline skates over to Benjamin and said, “Please take these.”

Benjamin remembered that she had bought multiple skates a few months back. “I already have a pair.”

“But these are of top quality,” Rebecca said.

“Don’t you want to use them then?”

“I’m only a beginner, and I already have a pair that I use,” she said. “So, I think you will put these to better use.”

“Since you put it that way, I won’t refuse,” Benjamin took the skates from her, and both their fingers touched that mo

    Benjamin came downstairs and went straight to George and took the soft drink can out of his hand.“Hey, what are you doing?” George raised his voice.“Shh,” Elizabeth told him to shut up.George controlled his anger and waited.Benjamin looked inside the can and noticed millions of dot-like structures inside the soft drink. “Where did you buy this drink?”“At a mart. Why?” George asked. “Do you want one as well? I bought many boxes, so if you want one, then go to the storage room.”Benjamin walked away with the can in his hand.“What the…” George looked baffled. “Did he just take my drink and leave?” He looked at his sister.“It’s just a drink. Don’t bother about it,” Elizabeth said.“It’s not about the drink. He’s very rude,” George stated.“A man that handsome can be a little rude,” Elizabeth replied.“Why are you backing him?” George looked a bit baffled. “Did he give you something valuable to you or what?”“Haha, you’re indeed my brother,” Elizabeth slapped his shoulder before lea

    Benjamin planted four metal rods in the four corners of the property that was part of the Sterling villa. They were mostly buried into the ground and could be barely seen. Once he connected them all with silver lightning, it raised a magnetic field around the whole property.And all the people inside that region began to feel pleasant.All the glowing marks on George’s face also disappeared slowly but surely.“What’s this barrier for?” Louis asked him.“It keeps away threats, and also heals those inside it,” Uzza entered the scene. “The Four Seasons Seal. That’s what it is. It’s invisible to the naked eye. Even most vampires won’t be able to see it.”“Yeah, I can’t see it, either,” Louis said, “but I can barely feel it. How can this energy field make even a vampire feel good? If it’s beneficial to a human, shouldn’t it be harmful to a vampire?”“We could build it that way, but he tweaked it a little because of you and your family,” Uzza said.Louis felt a bit grateful after hearing th

    Louis stayed at the mart for a full 24 hours, but he didn’t notice anything unusual.Meanwhile, at the Sterling villa.Shawn went out early in the morning and brought milk from a farmer their family knew from a long time. Uzza stopped Shawn at the entrance and checked the milk.She couldn’t see the nanobots like Benjamin could, so she had to taste the milk to check for their presence.After verifying its purity, Uzza let him bring the milk cans into the villa. “What’s this all about?” Shawn asked her.“I’m just checking the fat of the milk, that’s all,” Uzza told him. “My daughter wants me to make some sweets, so the milk needs to be of a certain standard. Packet milk is worthless, but this milk isn’t bad.”“It’s worth twenty dollars,” Shawn said. “Packet milk costs only fourteen dollars. Still, I bought raw milk because my mom doesn’t use processed milk, even if it has decent fat content in it.”“Well, during processing they mix a lot of chemicals for longer shelf life and other thin

    The next morning.Rebecca came to the balcony after exercising in the gym room. She felt very tired, but she came here hoping that the sunlight would make her feel better.Dorothy was also sitting there, and she was talking with Benjamin who was massaging her head.Rebecca was a bit shocked by how daring Dorothy was. How could she ask a guest to massage her head?“I feel like my cancer will go away,” Dorothy said, making Benjamin smile.Rebecca, however, could tell that Dorothy was just shameless praising him after making him work like a slave.Just then, Benjamin said, “Cancer is nothing compared to some other diseases. For instance, the obsession for food, money, and sex are the three biggest diseases that have been plaguing humanity since forever. Compared to those three, cancer is just a little thing is what I believe.”Dorothy didn’t quite like what he said because she felt that he was making light of her deadly disease.Rebecca, however, seemed pleasantly surprised because she a

    “What do you want?” Dorothy asked in a low voice. “Haven’t your Myers family betrayed the Sterling family already? Selena lost a bet because of your mother, so for what reason are you calling me now? Don’t think I’m easy to fool.”“I called for one reason only,” Sofia spoke calmly. “Give me Benjamin's number.”Dorothy was surprised. “I-I don’t know the number, and I don’t think he even has a mobile.”“If you want money, then you might want to help me get him,” Sofia said slowly but with confidence.Dorothy thought for a moment and said, “How much money are we talking about?”“More than you expect,” Sofia said. “And your daughter will once again be able to join the Fox Club. I give my word.”Dorothy was happy to hear that, but she said, “I don’t believe you.”“We’re doing business now,” Sofia said. “Let us just make transactions. I’ll send you a hundred grand today. That’s just the advance. Once you succeed in doing what I say, then I will give you a lot more. A lot, lot more.”Dorothy

    In Elizabeth’s room.Shawn was seeing all the items of Elizabeth. He could see dozens of Louis Vuitton bags. “Damn, you’ve got like everything in here. I know you buy a lot, but this is crazy.”“Haha, my crazy habit is now going to help us start a lucrative business,” Elizabeth proudly said.“You say, it’s lucrative, but do you really think people will buy these items?” Shawn doubtfully asked.“Why wouldn’t they?” Elizabeth confidently said. “Trust me, they’ll jump at these like there’s no tomorrow.”“How are you so confident?”“C’mon, you see me, and you don’t think there are other women like me?” Elizabeth said. “There are women who are crazier than me. Too much makeup. Fake hair. Fake eyelashes. Fake eyebrows. Fake boobs. Fake butt. Push up bras. High heels. They wear everything they can to look ultra cool and perfect.”“Yeah, the deception runs deep,” Shawn stated. “Their looks are completely fake, but still, they say they deserve a real man. If you look completely natural from be

    Before Lisa could help George, Uzza kicked him in the waist, sending him rolling down the mat. The bucket also rolled another way, which freed him.“U-Uncle…” Lisa’s eyes bulged out. “Y-Your hair… it’s all gone!”“What are you…” George touched his head, and he couldn’t feel his hair anymore. It was all gone. He looked around, and his hair was lying on the mat everywhere.“How weak of a hair you got,” Uzza snorted. “You just put your head in the water once, and all the hair fell off. How pitiful.”George still looked very shocked and confused. Did he really lose all his remaining hair? He already looked older than his age, but now that his hair was gone, he looked worse because his head was shaped a little like an egg, and he hated that. “M-My hair..” tears welled up in his eyes.In Elizabeth’s room.“So you are going to create multiple outlets to sell these costly products,” Shawn was nodding as he observed the items. “It doesn’t sound crazy, but will it work?”“We’ll start with one.

    Moments after Lisa left the balcony, Selena came there. Delle put a chair in between Rebecca and Benjamin, and Selena sat there.Delle gave her coffee and then left.As Selena sipped on the coffee, she looked at her daughter and noticed something. “Rebecca, is that a gray hair on your head?”Rebecca was surprised by that. “No it’s not,” she replied without even taking a look at it. Why would her mother bring up the topic about her hair in front of Benjamin? She didn’t understand it.“I didn’t get a single gray hair until I turned 37,” Selena said. “You’re not even thirty, and you are already starting to get gray hair. That’s not good, Rebecca. Use aloe vera. We have lots of aloe vera growing at our home, so use them.”Rebecca didn’t say anything.“Aloe Vera is good,” Benjamin voiced his mind. “It cools the head and reduces the stress, so it will help promote the health of the hair, but if you want the hair to be darkened, I think you should use related herbs like hibiscus powder.”“I

    The next morning.Rebecca came out of her room fast and reached the dorms just to check on Benyamin. She found him brushing his teeth with his finger. And he was using salt.“Don’t you have a brush and toothpaste?” Rebecca quickly asked. “You should have asked me then.”“No, I’m fine with this,” Benyamin replied. “The smell of the chemicals in the toothpaste just makes me feel nauseous, so I’m fine with just this sea salt.”“But… will salt be enough?”“It’s enough,” Benyamin gave a thumbs-up. “In fact, I’m worried about you because you’re using that chemical-ridden toothpaste which dullens your brain.”“If they dullen the brain, then why would they promote toothpastes so much on television?”“They will promote everything that will make them money while keeping the people sick, so that they will not be able to think clearly and would rather depend on the government to think for themselves,” Benyamin smiled.“That’s not funny,” Rebecca hissed. “I have to go and brush my teeth. And I’m f

    Later that night.Benjamin was out in the garden, sitting under a tree, doing nothing as hours went by.“He’s been like that since dinner,” Rye was watching him from the first floor’s window. “It’s not good.”“What can I say?” Uzza was feeling heavy-hearted. “It feels like the story of Abel and Cain altogether, though in a different way. The brothers that represent the duality of current man. The devil sure knows how to mock us and make us angry. I’m certain now. It’s his plan. He put the sworn brothers against each other.”“But how did he get Shadow?” Rye frowned. “I don’t sense any demonic energy in him.”“Considering Shadow’s abilities, it’s easy for him to hide the demonic energy,” Uzza opined. “He’s a perfect place for demons to hide, though I don’t know how they got hold of him. He must have been caught by surprise. I just hope that this won’t lead to something disastrous.” She was looking at Benjamin. “The longer this goes, the more likely that someone among those is going to b

    Veronica brought Akash with her to dinner. Almost everybody was present at the dinner table after a very long time.New tables were arranged because there were more people now.Veronica could see that Akash was not taking his eyes off Benyamin. “Why are you staring at him nonstop?” she asked in a low voice.“He’s tall, handsome, and so fair. Even his hands are so shiny. How’s that possible for a man?” Akash sounded quite envious. “Men are not supposed to look so good-looking, right?”“Mm…” Veronica looked at Benyamin and felt the same. “He does look like a million bucks, but he doesn’t seem to have much muscle on his body. What’s the point of being tall when you don’t have enough muscle? You only look like you have inadequate genes.”“Not every man can be built heavy like the men in your family.”“Haha, you’re right,” Veronica was proud of her brothers and dad because they were tall and big and good-looking. Their jaws alone would melt the gazes of many women, after all.Rye and Benjam

    Benyamin couldn’t go upstairs with Rebecca because he refused to tell Selena what he was doing all these days.Selena wouldn’t have allowed him to go past her unless he gave her proof, so he settled with staying in the dorms for the time being.Rebecca dressed up very nicely and attended dinner. Because Benyamin wasn’t present, she was about to visit the dorms, but Selena told her to sit at the table.Selena sent Delle to go and bring Benyamin, saying sarcastically that he might otherwise get lost.Rebecca sat down and waited patiently. (Why didn’t he just tell her what happened? Things would have been easier if he told her everything. What does he have to hide?)Meanwhile, at the dorms.Benjamin and Rye were both present in the same hall as Shadow. Rye was silent, and Benjamin was doing the talking.“What is your relationship with Rebecca?” he asked Shadow.“Obviously, I’m her husband,” Shadow replied. “Don’t you know that already?”Benjamin frowned. “Stop joking.”“I’m not joking.

    Benyamin gave a bouquet to Rebecca, and she gladly accepted it.Rebecca brought Benyamin into the villa while holding his hand, and her eyes were still wet with tears of happiness.Selena, who just happened to be coming downstairs with her handbag, planning to go out to make an important deal, saw Benyamin. The bag in her hand dropped. “Y-You… Why did you come back?”“Mom, is that the question you ask your son-in-law?” Rebecca’s voice was sharp.“He’s been gone for weeks!” Selena’s gaze also turned sharper. “And don’t you remember what he’s done? He sold the villa away to Uzza. Did you already forget that he cheated on all of us? Let go of his hand now! He must have heard of my recent rise and came here to use us! A bastard like him should never even be let close! Kick him out. Now!”Rebecca, however, tightened her grip. “No. If you want him to leave, I’ll leave, too.”Selena’s heart skipped a beat. “What?

    Selena had been busy talking with many businessmen from all across the country. The people from the film industry also came to the Sterling villa with bouquets and gifts.Some gifted her luxury cars, while some others wanted her to act in their films, so they were showing their call sheets and asking for her movie dates.They were willing to pay her as much as twenty to fifty million dollars per movie.Selena, however, didn’t reckless sign on every movie she got. Out of the dozens of stories that came to her, she only picked two so far.And she was quite happy with her current situation.To show her gratitude to Uzza, she came to her and gave a key to Uzza who was in the kitchen with Delle.“What’s this?” Uzza asked.“One of the movie producers gifted a private jet as advance payment for agreeing to do his movie,” Selena replied.Delle’s eyes enlarged very much. “A-A private jet? How much does that cost, ma’am?”“32 million dollars,” Selena casually replied. “This is just the start. I’

    “How did you feel when you first saw Veronica? Tell me the truth,” Uzza was questioning Akash while he was watering the plants in the backyard.“Obviously…” Akash was about to say something, but his husband-radar sensed his wife coming up from behind, so he said, “when I met her on our first date, I became pregnant.”Uzza spit out the corn kernels in her mouth out of shock. “What?”“Pregnant with love, I mean,” Akash added.“Why are you exaggerating?” Veronica pulled Akash’s ear. “When we first met, I smelled his hands first. They didn’t smell like curry, so he passed my first test. And then, we talked about other things.”Akash shook his head and giggled helplessly.Seeing Akash blushing, Uzza could see that he was in love with Veronica more so than Veronica was in love with him.Veronica then climbed on Akash’s back and hugged him from behind.“What are you doing?” Akash complained. “Can’t you see that I’m working?”“Work while carrying me. As a man, you should be able to do this muc

Samuel welcomed them, but Amber didn’t like the atmosphere and told Amber she’d go back. Kathy didn’t force her cousin and let her leave.Kathy then explored the mansion with Samuel, which shocked the maids as Samuel hadn’t done such a thing before. What if Samuel’s daughters and wife were to see what he was doing now? What if Andrew were to see?Andrew, on the other hand, was very busy. He worked with some media companies and celebrities and had them leak news on trafficking of women and children. He also had some sexual scandals released to divert some of the attention.The public thought that it was the work of the media companies at first, but as the news channels began to give credit to Andrew Sehla the president, everyone wondered if Andrew was behind this.As if living up to the people’s expectations, Andrew made some politicians and celebrities

    As Veronica handled Akash roughly, punishing him for his farts, he yelled at her and told her to do the exercise herself to understand how tough it was, but then Veronica did five sit-ups and made them look so easy. She didn’t have any abs, but her abdomen looked very beautiful because of the skin folds and the type of dress she was wearing.“See? It’s so easy,” Veronica hissed at him. “Now, do just like how I did. Don’t inhale while getting up. That’s why you’re farting like a pig. Breathing is everything. Without that you won’t be able to execute any exercise with control.”“O-Okay,” Akash helped her get up. When he saw Rebecca and Benjamin at the door, he was so embarrassed he went to the other end of the gym.“You have come far, Veronica,” Rebecca was proud of her sister. She used to teach her little sister all the time, and now it felt nice to see her teach Akash how to do different exercises.“Haha,” Veronica laughed like a gorilla and looked at Benjamin, “do you want to learn f
