THE RESUSCITATED SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER 180
Sofia woke up and found herself in the Bones’ hospital.The nurse told her that she was found next to a collapsed villa, and that a guard found her lying unconsciously in the backyard and called for an ambulance.She couldn’t believe that the villa had collapsed. She asked about Charles, but the nurse told her that only she was found, and that Charles was not found under the rubble, so he was not at home when the building collapsed.What caused the villa to collapse? Sofia doubted the mafia and thought back on the two women that entered the villa just before she lost consciousness.“Did they use some kind of explosives to make the building fall?“Are they somehow related to Raven?“Did they come to take revenge on me by taking Charles away from me?”She wanted to cry as well as scream, for there was little to nothing she could do against the mafia.“Charles… Did I drag you into my mess? Where are you right now?”As far as she knew, Charles was able to fight off the thugs, but how coul

“Alright.” Butcher leaned forward from his seat. “Let’s see what kind of face is hiding behind that handsome face-mask, shall we?”Two brought her claws out before coming to the front and swiping her arm in quick movements, tearing Charles’ mask in the process.This exposed a completely different person to them. A person who was also handsome but with sharper edges to his face, and the scar on his eyebrow also made him appear a bit intimidating.“Who the fuck is this motherfucker?” Butcher asked after seeing Carlos’ face. He kept staring at Carlos but couldn’t recognize him. “Have I seen him before? I don’t remember seeing this punk anywhere in the past.”Samantha took a good look and shook her head. “Nope. I haven’t seen him before, Boss.” She then mumbled, “But he’s definitely my type.”Leslie, however, somewhat remembered his face. “I think I saw a bounty on this face not long ago.” She took his picture and searched through the database and found a match. “Carlos Wallace. The husba

“Tell me how you’ve awakened your blood,” Samantha dug a screwdriver in Carlos’ thigh, but he didn’t scream. “If you tell me, I’ll let you go.”“Do you see the word ‘fool’ on my forehead?” he growled.Samantha pulled the screwdriver out and stabbed him in the thigh a few more times, making him grind his teeth and bear the pain.“Leslie has already gone to your villa,” Samantha said, smirking, “to see if she could find any clue on how you’ve awakened. So, it’s only a matter of time before we crack the code. And once we do, we’re going to make you the most miserable man on earth.”“Nothing you can do will make me more miserable than what I’ve already experienced all my life,” Carlos blurted, “When I was in the orphanage, the people there made us beg in the streets after dark. Some of us would get sold. Some would get kidnapped. I lived every night in terror, as I did my best to survive, no, not just to survive but to keep looking forward to living a better life. I’ve seen able men beg o
THE RESUSCITATED SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER 183
“Dragon Crashing the Ocean!”“Phoenix Burning the Forest!”Leslie and Samantha used wide-scale blood attacks that they believed would counter Akira’s speed. And it worked. Akira was struck by both of the attacks and was pushed back. However, it was only part of her sleeve that was destroyed.Leslie’s eyes widened. “What the hell? How’s she this strong? Is she also an Awakened? What bad luck we have!”“Shut your mouth and focus on the fight,” Samantha growled.Both of them fearlessly and furiously attacked her.Just then, Carlos broke free from his binding and jumped into the fight and madly attacked both of them like a crazy beast. All the torture they had done to him was still very fresh in his mind. His thighs still had holes in them. His head also had a hole in it, and the living pain in those body parts only added to his wrath.Each of his punches were like thunder and bombarded in their faces, utterly battering their bodies both outside and inside. They found their vitality leavi

“Don’t be foolish,” Akira harrumphed. “You think you can fight a hundred vampires by yourself? And there’s also Butcher who’s a Life Leecher. He’s probably awakened his body as well. Even though you’ve awakened your blood, it still doesn’t guarantee your victory.”“That’s why I’m asking you to train me,” Carlos insisted passionately.“How can I train you when I myself haven’t awakened my blood?” she responded. “To be honest, I didn’t think awakening one’s blood was possible. I thought it was just a myth because I could already do so much with my blood, but…” she looked at the red sword in Carlos’ hand, “clearly, there’s more to blood I thought. I can sense life and sentience from that sword. Perhaps, it’s imbued with the energy of your soul that’s lying dormant in the blood. The hairs on her arm stood from being in the presence of that sword. “That spiritual energy feels similar to the power of the one that turned me.”“Who turned you?” Carlos ended up asking.“Trust me, you don’t wan

“V-Vampires can’t give birth to children?” Carlos’ heart sank into his stomach. “What do you mean by that? It’s a joke, right? You’re joking, right?”“I thought I told you before, but I guess I didn’t?” Akira, however, looked rather casual about it all of a sudden, though her hands were still clenched. If there was anything she still regretted to this day, it was turning Carlos into a vampire without his permission, but she never expressed her opinion about it for whatever reason.“No, you didn’t,” Carlos put his brain to work, but he didn’t remember her telling about this before. “So you weren’t joking?”“No.” She shook her head slowly.Carlos clutched his head. “I can’t have kids? I don’t believe it.” He looked in absolute shock. “Wait…” his eyes again met with hers. “Does that mean, you also…”“I can’t get pregnant, either,” Akira didn’t hesitate to respond. “This is one of the curses that come with being a vampire.”Carlos felt bad for her, and also bad for him, but as he thought
THE RESUSCITATED SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER 186
Akira removed her black mask and embraced the sun even though the sunlight started burning her skin softly.The early morning rays of the sun somehow always affected the vampires much more than of any other time, so the burning pain felt tangible.“You’ve done well, but I don’t think you’re part of me, Lola,” Akira brought her claws out. “It’s time you leave my body.” She straight away thrust her hand into her forehead and pulled her brain matter. To her shock, something else came out along with her brain matter. It was a squirming flying snake that hissed painfully as the sunrays began to burn its translucent body immediately. “What the hell…” Akira held the snake tightly in her hand and didn’t let it escape.“Let me go!” Lola hissed madly and tried her best to free itself, but in a matter of seconds, its body burned into ashes that turned into dust and drifted away in the wind.Akira opened her hand, and there was nothing in her hand except for a bit of her brain matter.She didn’t

In the afternoon.Victoria dropped Narika at Ducksbelly, a small but famous restaurant where not just anybody could reserve a table, especially during lunch hours.Most people sitting at the tables were either entrepreneurs or rich businessmen.Narika went and sat at the table where the tall and handsome Jim Blake was sitting. He had already ordered the food and prepared everything for her. Except for the wine, all the items were her favorites, so she was definitely surprised.“I heard about your preferences from your mom, so…” Jim looked a little excited because he had been waiting for something like this for months.Every item was costly from crab’s legs to gold steak and the 10,000 dollar wine.“Do you like it?” Jim asked, eager for her response and, even more so, her attention. “If you don’t, we can order something else.”“No, I’m fine with this. Thanks for your effort,” Narika sucked in a breath and smiled at him. “To be honest, I wasn’t expecting this.”“The food?”“No. The date

I fully dedicate my first completed work to my God, Lord Jesus Chirst. If it’s not for Him, I wouldn’t have come into existence, so this is just a little thank you to Him from the bottom of my heart. And then, I thank the readers for their support. A special thanks to the top gem supporters: Samuel Kalu, libertysomerville, and o4igins master. Also, I very much thank the reader ‘Sarah Neuser’ for her wonderful review. Your review definitely helped me keep the passion going, so you have my humble appreciation. APOLOGY:: I apologize for not finishing this novel sooner, even though I could have. I fell into the trap of competing for competitions and ended up starting to write multiple novels at the same time. I won’t say I regret that, but yeah, it’s been draining me for months. I will do my best to finish the remaining
EPILOGUE
The next morning.Victoria woke up and did not receive a bed coffee. She went to the kitchen,only to find a letter there on the fridge.Cassey had written a letter and disappeared. In the letter, she thanked Victoria for her care, and apologized for leaving this way because she knew Victoria wouldn’t let her go otherwise.“The bats must have really scared her,” Victoria couldn’t really blame Cassey, but she was still angry that Cassey left without even telling directly to her face. “If she comes back running after a few months, I won’t take her in.”On the other hand, Gregory, having lost his argument with Victoria the previous night, brought a black magician to chase the bats away. However, they didn’t know this black magician was a fake. But that would probably be not proven because the bats would no longer attack the mansion from here onward.Sofia told her mother to prepare her multiple masks, one of which looked like Cassey, and others that looked like different people, including
CHAPTER 253
Many minutes passed since Sofia and others got stuck in the smelly basement filled with rat poop and what not. Moreover, these rats were the size of cats. From having eaten all kinds of roots and seeds in the garden, they grew very bulky, and they did not fear these four humans. They were more arrogant than the Myers themselves, as if they were the real owners of this place!As everyone waited with bated breaths, about an hour or so later, the music stopped. The sound of bats leaving reached their ears.“Did they leave?” Sofia wondered. She told Cassey to check on it, but Cassey was still feeling her wounds. She refused to go out.They waited a few minutes before coming out. To their relief, the bats were gone, and so did the guitar, but they didn’t care about the guitar.“Our mansion must be cursed,” Victoria looked at Gregory. “Do something.”“What do you want me to do? Bring some black magicians?” he yelled in frustration.“I don’t know! Just make sure they won’t even come near our
CHAPTER 252
In the middle of the night, Sofia was rolling around and slapping her arms every now and then because bugs were biting her. There was no fan or AC in this cottage. All she had was a hand fan, and her arms had grown heavy from waving the fan. Now, she was completely drenched in sweat, and this made it all the more difficult for her to properly sleep.She got up from the couch and shook her dress before walking out of the cottage. She could see the mansion in the distance. The words her mother told her a day ago came to her mind.“After the wedding was stopped, we didn’t care about anything. But your sister went to the catering guys and told them to give the food to the homeless. They went and freely distributed the food throughout the city in our family’s name,” Victoria showed the details in the newspaper. “This is good for us because the public opinion will surely improve after this incident. We’re doing our best to make those videos Carlos showed at the wedding are fake. Even if som
CHAPTER 251
After shooting Carlos eight times, Sofia ran away from the scene.Not only were there multiple witnesses, there was also a camera recording of the scene, which was provided as evidence to the police before the Myers family could do anything about it. So, the police began to search for Sofia everywhere.While Sofia was on the run, Carlos Wallace a.k.a, Charles Wallace was officially declared dead. And all those who knew him mourned his death.His story of Charles Wallace had become so popular it was printed in multiple magazines, and a popular writer had announced that he would be writing a biography of Carlos, and he requested some funds for researching in depth about the life of Carlos Wallace. Within just a few days, the author received thousands of dollars as funds from the interested public.Victoria and Gregory, on the other hand, publicly stated that they have nothing to do with their eldest daughter’s actions and did not support what Sofia had done. However, in secret, they mai

Sofia was too stunned to even talk or blink for that matter. Seeing Carlos had frozen her to the core.“C-Carlos!” Victoria shouted like a pig walking on broken glass. “Why are you disguised as Charles? What have you done to him? Where is he?”“He’s… standing right before you,” Carlos raised the face mask in his hand. “I’m Carlos. And I’m Charles.”Victoria’s eyes grew wider than the seas. The wine glass in her hand fell.“I’m Carlos Wallce. I’m Charles Wallace,” Carlos added. “I’m the guy that has been treated like a trash, not worth her time, by Sofia no matter how much I tried to please her, and I’m also the guy that she has fallen for because she believed she deserved me when I was a gambler who earns in millions every match.”Sofia still kept stupidly staring in gut-busting shock. (No! No! No! This can’t be true! This must be a dream! It has to be!) She refused to accept what was transpiring right before her eyes.However, why wasn’t the nightmare ending?Why was Carlos still sta
CHAPTER 249
Charles was preparing in his room all by himself. Someone knocked on the door multiple times.“Coming.” Charles opened the door only to get shocked to see Laurel who had wet eyes, and there was anger dwelling in her eyes. She entered the room without his permission and locked the door. “What are you doing?”She looked into his eyes. “Didn’t you say you can’t make a woman pregnant? Why are you marrying Sofia?”Charles maintained a straight face. “You will know soon.”“What do you mean I’ll know soon?” Laurel frowned.“That’s all I can say. If you leave, I’ll prepare for the wedding,” Charles said.Laurel clenched her fist. “I hate you, Charles. I wish I never met you.” Holding her tears back, she rushed out of the room.Charles pursed his lips and took a deep breath. When he looked at himself in the mirror, he hated whom he was seeing.Meanwhile, in another room, Sofia was looking at herself in the mirror with a bouquet in her hand, she felt so happy. Her mother kissed her and said, “F
CHAPTER 248
Almost a week later, the wedding day has arrived.The Sky Moon Hotel’s rooftop was chosen as the wedding venue. All the top three floors were reserved for 120,000 dollars for three days and nights so that the guests could stay at the hotel for three more days after the wedding.Gregory had to do at least this much because it was his eldest daughter’s wedding. Everybody that was given the invitation cards were also later sent Myers’ branded clothes fitting to their body sizes so that everybody who would come to the wedding would be wearing the clothes of his brand and his brand only.Though no press was allowed at the wedding, some private photographers were hired to capture every moment so that Gregory could later use the footage to market his brand all over the world. After all, many billionaires from around the world were invited to the wedding, and even more guests to the reception that would follow the morning after the wedding night.The Sky Moon Hotel was a 120-floored building
CHAPTER 247
Charles spent a few hours with Bob and Charlie, eating with them and buying them things. He parted with them in the evening.As Charles was walking back home, he thought back about his life. Many years ago, when he was very young, he was alone. Even after these years, that didn’t seem to have changed as he didn’t have anyone that would walk beside him.Charles was aimlessly walking, and he noticed a few men trying to look from an old beggar. They managed to take more than a hundred dollars from the beggar, but they still wanted more, and they began to rip his clothes, trying to see if he was hiding the money elsewhere.The beggar was old and weak, so he couldn’t fight back against the two youngsters.Charles approached from behind and grabbed their necks. They couldn’t move their necks, not even a little.“Give his money back,” Charles uttered, putting a bit more strength into his grip, and the youngsters quickly dropped the money. Charles then let go of them, and they ran away pretty
