Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 839
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

Marilyn wanted to rip off Benjamin’s genitals, but Ulmer’s knee reached her cheek first. And Ulmer’s knee kick sent her flying into the wall. Her cheek and jaw bones cracked, but they were repairing fast.“Urgh…” Marilyn didn’t like how she was easily beaten. (I’m one of the few awakened blood suckers in the world! I can even see the fastest bullet in the world in slow motion, and yet I couldn’t see that bastard’s kick coming. These two men are definitely not ordinary. They are not vampires, but they are much stronger than I thought. But are they stronger than my master or not? That’s the big question.)“I can hear your thoughts very clearly,” Benjamin said. “We aren’t here to kill you trash now. Just give us the information we want, and we’ll let you live for now.”“Krgh,” Marilyn gritted her teeth. Normally, she would be the one who would toy with her prey, but now she felt she was on the receiving end of her enemies’ mercy.“Who is your master?” Ulmer asked her. “If you’re afraid to

“You can remove your mask and talk with us, Mr. Crowley,” Benjamin said, shocking not just the woman but also Ulmer. “Let’s not wait until the night falls.”Ulmer had seen through this woman’s mask, but he didn’t think this was a man posing as a woman. “Wait, does that mean her breasts are fake.”“They’re not fake. I just changed my gender when I was young and have been living as Alexia, that’s all,” Alexia Crowley said, regaining his composure pretty quickly.“So, they are fake!”“They’re not fake!” Alexia barked for a second but then smiled. “But if you’re interested, I can show them to you right now.”“No thanks. I don’t want to poison my eyes,” Ulmer replied quickly.“Haha, aren’t you quite a rude one,” Alexia laughed angrily. “Anyway, what brought you little shits here? Do you think you can beat me just because you managed to intimidate Marilyn? She’s just one of my underlings. I have created dozens of vampires like her. The difference between her strength and mine is like the di

Alexia was driving in her car. Benjamin and Ulmer were in the back.Alexia was looking at Ulmer through the mirror, making him feel a little uncomfortable.“What are you looking at?” Ulmer asked. “Do you want me to pluck both of your eyes out?”“I was just wondering why you have the ladies’ perfume on,” Alexia said.“It’s not for the reasons you might be thinking!” Ulmer quickly said. “I just don’t like strong scents, so I use my wife’s perfume since she likes the smell. It has a soft fragrance, so I don’t mind spraying some of it on myself. That’s all.”“That’s unfortunate,” Alexia said.“You are one sick pervert, Alex,” Ulmer further said. “Are you sure you don’t want to get treated in a mental hospital? Or do you want me to electrocute your brain and set the neuron pathways straight?”“My brain is working just fine,” Alexia retorted.“No, it’s not. You are wearing a mask and living a life full of lies,” Ulmer blurted. “And you say, everything is okay with you?”“I wasn’t born bad,”

CHAPTER 902
“How are things with your family, brother?” Fiona asked.Selena raised an eyebrow. “You’re in a family that deals with real-estate, so you should already know how we’re doing.”“Haha, I do, but outside information can only be trusted so much,” Fiona responded. “Recently, we’ve worked hard on getting a marriage deal for Fiona. Her fiance owns a reputed sports agency that deals with covering all the popular international sports. He earns hundreds of millions every year, but his father is a tycoon in the alcohol industry. Their net worth is in tens of billions.”“Good for you and your daughter,” Jacob smiled.“By the way, Brother,” Fiona glanced at Veronica and Akash. “What does Veronica’s husband do?”Jacob’s expression slightly changed.Veronica frowned and looked at her mother who was looking back at her with a rather poker face.“He is staying at home for now,” Veronica said openly.“Pfft, he’s jobless?” Riley snorted. “Your taste is so bad, Veronica, not just in terms of finding a pa

CHAPTER 901
Benjamin went to the first floor and waited in the hall until Rebecca left her room.Then he went to her room. The door was locked, but he solidified his energy in the keyhole and opened the door.He entered the room quietly and saw the water bottle on the table next to her desk. It was half-full.Benjamin took out the vial and poured a drop of water into the bottle while saying ‘I love you, Rebecca.’He entered the bathroom and poured a couple of drops in the bathtub while once more uttering the three words ‘I love you, Rebecca.”He was about to come out of the room, but then he stopped and then ended up leaking another drop of water on the pillow, and another on the blanket. “I love you, Rebecca.”“Hopefully, this will help,” he thought.Benjamin then hurriedly left the room and then went to the rooftop. He mixed a few more drops in each of the four water tanks, while saying the words out, “I love you, Rebecca.”He looked at the vial.Three fourths of it was finished.He put the via

CHAPTER 900
Despite Uzza, Rye, and Benjamin living in separate rooms, there were many guest rooms still available in the mighty Sterling villa, the best property on Rachel Hill.So, the families of Jacob’s siblings stayed in those rooms without any issue.But the problem was with the cousins, who were trying to show off. They acted arrogant and haughty with Veronica and even mocked Rebecca for the little hair she had on her head, not even bothering to wonder why exactly her hair was like that.Rebecca didn’t even bother talking to them, or sparing a word with them because she knew how selfish and self-centered these people were.Jacob and Shawn might have forgiven these people, but Rebecca couldn’t just act like nothing ever happened.She didn’t treat them badly, either. She just ignored them and minded her business.However, her cousin sisters got their eyes on Benyamin who was quite good-looking. Her cousin brothers were also unable to avert their eyes from Rye.Rye looked more like an exotic f

CHAPTER 899
So many people started visiting Sterling villa ever since Selena herself had leaked the news of her buying a lot of land and buildings in Aurora Hills.Selena was sitting on the balcony, with Veronica next to her.“Why has the traffic increased so much?” Veronica said, “I’m seeing so many cars come and go recently.”Selena somewhat smiled and sipped on cream coffee. “I wasn’t born rich, Veronica. My relatives didn’t even let my parents into their homes or invite us to their functions because we were poor as church mice.”“Stop joking, Mom,” Veronica smirked with amusement. “You look like a million dollars. I’m sure our relatives’ sons back then would have wanted to marry you.”“You’re not entirely wrong, but they didn’t want to marry me as much as they wanted to mess with me,” Selena said. “I still remember one guy telling me, ‘I may look ugly as hell, but I can show you heaven in bed.’”Veronica went silent in shock. She didn’t think her mother’s beauty would have brought such terrib

Delle was bringing food, three varieties, on a big plate.Rye intercepted and took the plate from her. She brought it to Benjamin and sat by him under the tree.The grass was cool, even though the breeze was warm.“You think I haven’t noticed that you weren’t eating anything since you made that 40-day promise?” Rye said. “You were just acting like you’re eating.”She broke the bread mixed with fruit and brought it closer to his mouth.He didn’t open his mouth.“Do you want me to stop eating just like you are doing?” Rye said.Benjamin, who was staring into the distance, glanced at her. “Is it possible to love and hate at the same time?”Rye pursed her lips together, not quite understanding why he asked such a question. “I was angry with the things you did. I am still angry, but I don’t hate you. So, if you really love someone, I don’t think you can hate them.”“If there is no hatred in his heart, then how is Neel able to do this to me?” Benjamin asked, a hint of pain laced through his

Rebecca and Benyamin had breakfast together.This nearly made Selena’s eyes bleed. She didn’t think she’d live a day like this.Watching them eating happily was like injecting poison into her body.While she loved seeing her daughter happy, she couldn’t spare any mercy on the man who tricked her daughter into marrying him.Even now, she was thinking in her heart, devising plans on how to separate her daughter and her husband.Having lost the mood to eat breakfast, she came to the backyard.Amber was preparing the background setting needed for the interview.“Where’s Kathy?” Selena asked.“S-She’s with Samuel Sehla, ma’am,” Amber hesitantly said.Selena’s gaze turned a little icy, but then she smiled. “I knew Kathy had it in her, but I didn’t think she’d be able to grab the attention of someone like Samuel Sehla.” She looked at Amber. “What about you?”“I-I don’t plan on grabbing anybody’s attention,” Amber quickly replied.“Tsk, tsk,” Selena shook her head. “Try to grab Benyamin’s att

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

CHAPTER 894
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
