Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 848
“They went in without your, Lord Rakir,” Alexia poured blood wine in a glass and gave it to him. “Do you think they will ever get out? I mean, they are strong, but the labyrinth beneath this castle is so big that anybody can get lost in it.”Rakir smiled. “If that guy really gets out, then he’s capable of breaking this continent itself into pieces.”Alexia’s eyes widened. “H-He’s that strong?”“He’s not just strong, idiot,” Rakir sipped on the blood, and it helped ease his nerves. “He’s the strongest being on the earth that has a flesh form. In the long past, there were the sons and daughters of the fallen angels who were called the heroes of their times, and there were also giants who were thousands of meters tall. Maybe, they would have been as freakishly strong or even stronger than Benjamin. But even those heroes of the past were nothing in front of the great ones who were the ones who taught humanity everything, from how to make a weapon to how to put on makeup. Their knowledge a

“Are you crazy?” Ulmer barked. “How could you just agree without even knowing what they’ll demand?”“As long as it doesn’t go against my conscience, I will try my best to finish it,” Benjamin replied. “But in return, undo the spell you put on Rebecca and everyone else.”“Unfortunately, we can’t magically undo what we did,” Azazel replied. “What do you say, Armaros?” he looked at another fallen angel.“Indeed, the enchantment that Semjaza used is quite a powerful one that disrupts not just the flow of time but the sense of the mind itself,” Armaros stated. “I’m afraid even I don’t know how to fully resolve it. After all, while we used to be in heaven, we didn’t know all the secrets there were. What we know is very little compared to what’s up there.”Benjamin clenched his fists. “If you can’t fully resolve it, can you at least weaken the spell?”“That, we can do,” Armarso said in a bit of a happy tone.“Hey, Benjamin,” Ulmer quickly intervened. “Do you really believe their words? They

“If you can’t do the one thing we want, then get out of our sight, you miserable thing,” Azazel’s words pierced Benjamin’s heart and soul deeper than any sword ever could. “And forget about your wife. She’s never going to remember you.”Benjamin suddenly loosened his fists and slowly kneeled and lowered his head onto the cold black rock before him. Closing his eyes, he prayed in his heart.“What are you doing?” Armaros snorted. “You think your voice will be heard just because you get on your knees and cry in your mind? That’s not how it works. Your voice will only be heard when its cry is strong enough to knock on the doors of heaven. Otherwise, He wouldn’t act.”Time passed.Seconds added into minutes.Minutes turned into hours and days. The fallen angels have mostly left, and only a handful of them were still at the table, chatting among themselves and not at all caring about Benjamin being there.Almost 40 hours later, Benjamin was still in the same position. His tears had made a th

The previous day.At the Sterling villa, the anniversary of Jacob and Selena was taking place in a grand manner, with many big people from the movie industry visiting their place.While everyone in the house looked happy, Rebecca as usually did not have a smile on her face when greeting the guests. The only good thing happening according to her was that Veronica was coming back home with her husband, just to personally greet Jacob and Selena.Rebecca could hear the guests praising both Jacob and Selena for staying together for so long and that they were setting a great example for the current generation.“Hmph,” Rebecca only felt annoyed by their words and thought, “They only stayed in the same house. They have long stopped living together. It’s been more than a decade and half since they started sleeping in different rooms. So, this whole anniversary feels like a joke. But I know why they’re having this function. It’s to show off to others that they still have not become irrelevant i

Jane expected Jim to get upset, but to add to her confusion, Jim smiled and said, “That’s actually good. You should avoid ice cream as much as possible. They are not healthy, right? I don’t eat them, too, but every now and then, I grab one of these things.”Jane couldn’t believe what he was seeing. “This guy… he’s another health freak like her!” she thought. “Looking at his big frame and that perfect shape… he’s also definitely a gym freak! No wonder he’s not offended by her blatant refusal to eat the ice cream he offered. Or is his acting skill so good that I’m not able to see through it?” As she wondered, Jim offered both the ice creams to her.“You must be her friend,” Jim said. “Can you please take these two?”Jane raised her eyebrows. “You mean, it’s fine if I eat these two ice creams and get fat?”“Ha-ha,” Jim awkwardly laughed. “I didn’t mean that.”“Hmph, whatever,” Jane snatched both the ice creams. “You both owe me one. Don’t forget that.” She purposely walked away from the

“Rebeeca, are you kidding me? Now I know why you didn’t have a wedding. To think your husband is a freaking pizza-delivery guy!” a blonde in a skimpy dress let the words flow out of her mouth like a monkey's exaggerated screams.“That’s not it, Jane.” The brunette sitting in the driver’s seat took her shades out and bit on them. She was wearing a metallic fashion dress that revealed some of her breasts and most of her healthy thighs with zero cellulite and perfect shine. She tried to explain herself by telling her a few things."So you're saying your vagina never vomited white stuff after getting married?" Jane covered her mouth in both shock and pity. "I went out on an extended foreign trip to find a good-looking husband, but you are here… stuck with a pizza-delivery guy."Rebecca didn't know whether to laugh or cry."At least tell me he's attractive.""Well," Rebecca felt awkward to respond to such a question.The car they were in, a red Porsche, had stopped in front of a cluster of

Benjamin entered the villa through the main door while chewing on a pizza slice. This was the same pizza he had wanted to give to the chief driver, though he ended up lying about forgetting to bring it. He took the rest of the pizza to the children’s room. His in-law’s children, there were four of them. All crazy, selfish, and self-absorbed in their own ways, just like their parents. Two of them talked too much, while the other two rarely ever talked. When Benjamin walked in, they were all playing games or chatting with their friends in their own mobiles. Their mobiles looked stylish and up-to-date compared to the crappy old mobile Benjamin had. “Hey, kids. I brought pizza,” Benjamin put excitement into his voice. “Put it on the table and leave,” the oldest of the four, Lisa, replied without even looking. Even though she looked cute with her pigtails and all, her words were always cold and indifferent, even more so than Rebecca. Benjamin did as she said and was leaving. (Not one o

At night.Almost everyone from the family gathered at the dining table and began eating, all except one who was still standing and serving food for others.He was the only son-in-law of the Sterling family, yet taunts and mockings were flung at him every other minute. Even the children took part in it enthusiastically.Sunday was a cheat day, so Selena was gorging on everything her hands could get hold of. While everyone sitting ate their fill to the point of burping twice or thrice, nobody offered Benjamin food or told him to sit and eat, not even his wife.He was hungry, but he was fed their trivial talk peppered with lies. He had to listen to them exchanging lies to one another. For instance, the children lied the most by hiding things they were doing. Lisa was chatting with her boyfriend since afternoon, but she lied about that. Roshan was watching exclusive stripping videos since evening, yet he acted like he was doing his homework. The other two children, who were much younger,
