Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 836
After Jane received the money in her bank account, she gave a hug to Rebecca and shook Benjamin’s hand and thanked them for their efforts.“I didn’t help much at all, though,” Rebecca said.“I will still thank you because if not for you I wouldn’t have come back and canceled this order,” Jane said. “Now, I’ll mess with Steve’s patience and when he’s at his breaking point, I’ll tell him that I already canceled the order.”“You sure are the devil’s daughter,” Rebecca snorted with a bit of amusement. “But don’t harass Steve too much. He’s a policeman, so you don’t want him to harass you in return. If he puts you behind bars, then I will be forced to visit prison to see you.”“Huh, that won’t happen. Steve is a sucker for Jane,” Jane proudly said.Soon after that, Jane and others left the store.As they were returning home, Benjamin was lost in his own world of thoughts. He had known for a long time that the fallen angels wanted to rule the physical realm like God, to the point they could

After eating pizzas at their table without even saying a word, Benjamin was returning to the car with them.He still looked dull and in low spirits because Rebecca didn’t touch anything that was put on the table. He didn’t even look at him once. He seemed truly lost as the hope in his heart wavered like the dying candle light.“You ordered pizzas for those at the villa and also for my family members,” Jane slapped Benjamin’s shoulder in appreciation. “That’s so nice of you. If you have any issues, then just tell me. I’ll tell Steve to solve it!”Benjamin quietly nodded in return.As he was getting into the car, two men suddenly attacked him from behind and bashed him in the head from behind and pushed him down. And then they threatened the ladies with the guns and got into the car.Rebecca held the door and didn’t let them close it, but Jane pulled her hand away. “Are you out of your fucking mind!”“Thank you for the pizzas, bitches,” one of the two robbers told them and smiled before

In Bronich City which was more than 400 miles away from Salem city.Maara was walking in the middle of the street at two in the night. Four men blocked her path at a junction. “Where are you going alone at this hour, sweetheart?” They seemed to be drunk. “Why don’t you give us entertainment for tonight?”“Weird triangular cheeks, and even weirder skin tone….” Maara snorted. “Do you think I wouldn’t be able to see through you replicants? Get out of my sight before I destroy you.”All four of them intensely stared at her for a little while before going their way.“If I fight them next to his house, it’s going to make me look bad. Maybe, that’s what they’re after,” Maara then went to a house which looked like an ordinary but beautiful house with only one floor. But it was spacious, and the garden on all sides of the house enhanced its atmosphere. “I’ve met some pricks who were system users, and most of them live in big buildings, but this guy is living in a rather simple house. This must

Ulmer and Maara were sitting in the back of the taxi, and he recognized the driver. “Aren’t you the guy I met a few months back? Roger, right?”“Yes, sir. I dropped you at Nelson’s home,” the driver, who was a young man in his early twenties replied. He was not stylish like Ulmer and looked very worn out right now, probably because he had been driving for many hours without resting. “I didn’t expect you to remember me. The 2000 dollars you gave me back then helped me a lot.”“I’m glad the money helped,” Ulmer smiled and then looked at Maara. “He’s at least ten years younger than me, but guess what? He’s already married and has a kid. I was playing games in my room at his age, skipping college classes. What about you?”Maara cast a cold glance at him but said nothing.“If it’s personal, then you don’t have to tell us,” Ulmer laughed. “Anyway, Roger, how are you doing these days?”“I’m doing fine, sir,” Roger replied, smiling, but Maara could see that he needed to rest.“You are driving

“Now that you’ve mentioned it, the sun has become whiter as if it’s going pale, and the moon seems to be glowing stronger, or is it the sun that’s getting weaker?” Ulmer looked at Benjamin. “What do you think is exactly going on?” He just talked informally. “What’s happening in your case is affecting the whole world as well?”“No, the world has been affected for centuries,” Benjamin said in a neutral tone, looking up at the sky full of stars. “My case is just a part of it. An isolated part.” He saw a line coming down in the sky.Ulmer also noticed that. “A star is falling somewhere.”“It’s not a star but a demon,” Benjamin said. “And it’s coming our way.”“What?” Ulmer didn’t believe it because he could see the star falling down. “That’s not a star. What are you talking about?”“Stars don’t fall. They have a firm base set in the firmament, so they won’t fall until the second heaven itself gets shaken in the future. That’s the only time the stars fall… during the end of the world. You

Ulmer was about to open a portal so that both of them could teleport to Los Angeles, but Benjamin grabbed his hand, and the portal got closed by force.“What was that for?” Ulmer was startled.“Don’t carelessly open portals. It messes with the frequencies and affects the surrounding areas,” Benjamin told him. “The demons will take advantage of it. People who are sick could get sicker. People who are crazy will get crazier.”“R-Really? I didn’t know that.”“If you want to open a portal, then do it in the sky,” Benjamin pointed upward. “Ether can take that overload better than the earth.”“That makes sense,” Ulmer smiled. “The sky is seemingly but it holds so much more energy than the earth and is also more flexible. That’s why the sky is above, whereas the earth is below.”Benjamin then brought Rebecca’s car back to the villa, even though he could have told Maara to do it.Afterward, he left with Ulmer, and Maara secretly followed them in Roger’s car.Benjamin and Ulmer were both trave

The next morning.Benjamin and Ulmer came out of the airport and took a taxi to the Helix company, a government organization which was funded for research on the human genome.“You think this place holds some secrets?” Benjamin asked Ulmer.“Yeah, I met the CEO of this company a month back during the science fair, and she gave off very bad vibes,” Ulmer replied. “I don’t know what she is yet, but I think we can start things from her. She might hold some information regarding what we’re looking for.”Benjamin knew that Ulmer was currently working as a teacher at a local school, even though he was also the emperor of Syslon, the city of systems, at the same time. “You seem to have realized that the images they show in books are all just theories.”Ulmer sighed. “Yeah. They give us the double helix for the DNA structure, but there’s no proof for that. Nobody really discovered its true shape because nobody has seen it. They say that our genome is like computer code, like an AI code which

“Actually, we do, but after meeting you, I’m having second thoughts about meeting her,” Ulmer said. “I feel like I can keep looking at you forever.”The receptionist blushed very much. “You can have my number if I can have yours.”“That won’t be a problem at all,” Ulmer said, “but first things first, we’ll go upstairs and meet your boss lady.” Saying that both Ulmer and Benjamin went toward the elevator.The receptionist was still blushing and did not care if they had the appointment of the CEO or not.As they were going up in the elevator, Benjamin said, “If your wife heard you say those words, what would she do?”“She’s a soft girl, but I think she’ll still pluck my hair out and count them right before me,” Ulmer replied with a straight face.“Mm,” Benjamin tried not to smile. “Then why did you flirt with that receptionist?”“It’s just some old habit of mine,” Ulmer breathed out a sigh. “I dated a lot of girls online, so I’ve gained that experience.”“Don’t let that receptionist fin
