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
Rebecca and Benjamin were still on the balcony, and she was staring at the sun. “Is it just me, or does the sun feel a little different?”Benjamin smiled a little. “Why do you feel it’s different?”“I don’t know…” she shrugged. “I don’t feel the same warmth I used to feel.”“I don’t know if you’ve noticed it or not, but the sunflowers in your garden are facing away from the sun.”“W-What?” Rebecca quickly stood and looked down from the balcony and saw the sunflowers, and they were facing the west in the morning. “You’re right. They are facing West. How’s that possible?”“The dandelions haven’t opened their faces,” Benjamin added, “and the birds are singing at 3 and 4 in the morning.”“Why is that?” Rebecca looked confused.“Because their biological clocks have been affected by the so-called sun you see up there,” Benjamin said as he looked at the sun that was no longer giving the warm orange light but was giving a bright white light like that of an LED light. (Even the real sun has be
