THE RESUSCITATED SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER 211
“What are you looking at, bitch?” Theron’s gaze was cold as hell. The temperature dropped by a degree just from his intense, cutting gaze.“Calling me a bitch just because I was looking at you,” Charles sipped on the water. “I don’t like it. But if you apologize, I might forgive you.”The barmaids were stunned to hear that.“Does he not know who Theron is?” the customers began to talk among themselves.Theron was the descendent of the Garroway family, one of the six great families that rule the underground city. The Garroway family was known for their ability to manipulate ice. It was a secret technique passed down only to those within the family.Because Theron was a member of a great family, not just anybody would pick a fight with him. So, when Charles said he’d forgive Theron if he were to apologize, Theron felt happy and excited.A corner of Theron’s mouth curled up. “You want to forgive ME?” He raised his hand and snapped his fingers.PSSHH~~!!In a second, Charles got frozen i

Cinderella sniffed a couple of times and said, “Vampires that drink blood often smell like funeral flowers, just the same as those humans who are poisoned and are going to die sooner or later. It is one of the scents that humans in the past used to spot vampires and kill them. We are cursed beings, after all. We smell like a funeral. We smell like death.”Charles didn’t know why Cinderella was suddenly talking about funeral flowers.“But you don’t smell like funeral flowers,” Cinderella added. “It leads me to believe that you probably haven’t consumed blood in at least three nights.”“W-What are you talking about?” Charles feigned ignorance.Theron also looked at Cinderella. “What has gotten into you? Why are you suddenly chatting with that guy? Don’t tell me, you’re interested in him now?”Cinderella looked back at Theron. “If I tell you that I am, what would you do?”Theron grinned angrily. “You are doing this just because I refrained myself from fighting him. I don’t think someone

Cinderella leaped forth and clawed at the blood sphere. It was tougher and thicker than she thought, but after exerting more pressure, she was able to break it.Her claws came right at Charles’ face.Charles caught her wrist and stopped her before her claws touched him. “I don’t want to fight you.”“What are you saying after I started fighting?” Cinderella flicked her fingers, sending a burst of energy that exploded right in Charles’ face and sent him flying away.Charles’ somersaulted and landed safely on his feet, his hand covering his face.“Ho…” Cinderella was slightly surprised. “To think the face mask survived that explosion… whoever made it must be very good at it.”Charles could still feel the pressure given by her. It was so great that he wasn’t able to stand comfortably. (If she can exert this kind of mental and physical pressure on others without even trying hard…) He decided that fighting her wouldn’t guarantee his victory, so he rushed toward the exit.“You think I’ll let

A few minutes earlier. Akira was talking with a senile border guard, one of the guys who would stop the beasts from the outer zone from entering the city. “So you’re saying that the secret escape route has been shut down?” “Yes, Miss. You shouldn’t have come here,” he said pitifully. “Escaping won’t be easy this time. There are many strong vampires in the city right now. If anyone causes ruckus, they will not let that person go. Only one week back, I saw a young vampire get killed for being arrogant.” “Don’t worry. I am strong now, and I also brought another man who’s as good as I am,” she said. “Once we get our job done, we’ll be gone from here without making a sound.” “I don’t know where you’re getting this confidence from, but I hope you will fulfill your goal of coming here and escape safely,” he expressed his wishes. Just then a shipment arrived in a two wheeler. “I gotta go. The children’s blood is here,” the old man hurriedly processed the identity of the deliverer who cam

Akira brought Carlos’ body under a big tree. She put him down and went utterly silent. There was no movement in his face. He looked completely dead. She couldn’t believe he died just like that. Tears escaped her eyes as she sat frozen next to him. Her heart grew heavy as seconds trudged past.She put her hand on her mask and was about to remove it, but then she felt a vibration. She looked at the chest wound on Carlos, and it began to repair all by itself. His heart also regenerated, and then it started beating slowly but surely.“This…” Akira couldn’t believe what she just saw. But Carlos’ heartbeat strengthened right before her eyes. And she remembered something she had learned during her battle at the moonless kingdom.Carlos’ eyes turned normal, and he looked at Akira without saying anything.A few seconds passed. “I’m not dead? Did you save me?”“You saved yourself,” Akira said softly, almost in a weak voice. But her eyes gained more light. “I heard in the past that for blood-awa
THE RESUSCITATED SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER 216
Though Carlos wanted Akira to come with him to deal with Butcher as quickly as possible, Akira told him to do something else.Together, they explored the outer zone and looked for children that were let loose to survive on their own.After searching for a long time, they found one kid but he was near death and all that was left of him was skin and bones. Even his eyes were gone.“This is horrible. What sort of beast did this to him?” Carlos’ blood boiled.“It’s not the beast that you think,” Akira said. “This is the work of a life-leecher. This isn't a regular skill, either. The life-leechers have the capability to steal others’ vitality and make it their own virility, or steal others’ virility and make it their own vitality.”“I didn’t quite get it.”“Whether they drink blood, or have sex, they’re going to suck the powers out of others,” Akira explained.“Like with the succubus demons we hear about in stories?”“Yeah, but those demons only suck the spiritual energy away, but these gu
THE RESUSCITATED SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER 217
Neither Akira nor Carlos expected the life-leecher to be the one they were looking for. If they said they were disappointed to see Butcher, they’d be lying!Nevertheless, Akira was not as happy to meet Butcher straight away because he was a life leecher with a lot of experience under his belt. Would she and Carlos be able to beat him? She wasn’t sure, but she wasn’t even given time to think.Butcher who was sucking the life out of a kid suddenly threw the kid onto Akira who was in the front. And he also leaped at her.In a battle between powerful vampires, a second of carelessness or disturbance could lead one to lose the fight.Butcher thought that the woman in the black mask would instinctively catch the kid, and she did.“Corrupt Claw!” Butcher clawed at Akira with his ghostly-pale claw.BUDUM~!A sphere of blood appeared from behind Akira and extended just enough to block Butcher’s claws before they could strike her.SUSSS~~!! PSSHH~~!!Pungent vapors released upon impact and fill

“I’m going to cut you into a thousand pieces, you motherfucker!” Butcher had become a pale white ghostlike bat and flew at Carlos with his mouth wide open, trying to bite his face off.Carlos formed the blood sphere just in time and blocked Butcher off. “Don’t you want to know how your sons died? If I die, who’s going to tell you?” His words made Butcher go all the crazier and bite at the blood sphere like a man who lost all reason.However, Butcher’s ghostly fangs were powerful enough to add up the damage over time and managed to destroy the blood sphere before Carlos could repair it.Carlos didn’t sweat. He confidently raised his hand and commanded with his thought. His eyes glowed red, and needles of blood formed all around them as far as the eye could see.Akira was stunned by what she saw, but Butcher still fearlessly and furiously attacked Carlos.All the needles spun as they came shooting down at Butcher and pierced through his bat-like body and also exploded.A disgustingly hu

And then, I thank the readers for their support. A special thanks to the top gem supporters: Samuel Kalu, libertysomerville, and o4igins master.

APOLOGY:: I apologize for not finishing this novel sooner, even though I could have.

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
CHAPTER 250
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
