THE RESUSCITATED SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER 78
Knowing that she was being followed, the cloaked woman stopped at an old warehouse which used to be a fashion factory but was closed down for some reason.She sat down and put Carlos in her lap.Carlos was barely conscious. He didn’t quite know what was happening, but something touched his mouth, and blood slowly filled his mouth. He instinctively sucked it. His throat muscles pulled all the blood they could down into his belly.The cloaked woman had actually put her forearm in his mouth and gave him her blood. Within seconds, Carlos’ complexion brightened, and his hair turned black. He was regaining his youth.At the same time, she felt a great pain and distress quaking her inner muscles, as she was literally losing her life force and was being weakened by it.But she had the supply of blood packets in this warehouse, and so she filled herself with blood and regained some of her energy.By the time Alexa showed up at the scene, Carlos was almost healed. And his senses were working no
THE RESUSCITATED SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER 79
“T-Thanks for saving me,” Carlos broke the awkward silence that had troubled his heart for the past minute or so. He was in the same building as the woman that had turned him into a vampire, so he still wasn’t sure if he should thank her for it, or just fight her and beat her for changing his fate so much without his permission. After all, he had done many horrible things after turning into a vampire. Stealing blood and drinking it like chocolate milk was one thing, but killing people? He never knew he had that in him. Definitely, something in him changed after he became a vampire. “You should leave,” she said, sighing in tiredness and relief. “L-Leave?” Carlos slightly shook his head. “There are a lot of things I want to ask. A lot of questions.” “I’m not obligated to answer any of your questions,” she indifferently said, hiding the halo in her cloak. “H-How can you say that?” Carlos couldn’t believe her attitude. “Weren’t you the one who turned me?” She didn’t say anything. “

“So, what should we do?” Carlos asked the question he had been meaning to ask. “I mean, I don’t feel great doing anything. What do you do in general?”Akira didn’t respond.“Hello, Madam,” Carlos asked again, “what do you do in general?”“Aren’t you rude!” she snapped a little. “Why should I tell you what I do in my personal time? Besides, why are you interested in a woman’s routine? Are you a pervert?”“P-Per, what?” Carlos’ eyes widened. He quickly felt the need to correct her. “I’m a decent gentleman, madam. I give and take respect.”“Asking what a woman does in her private time is giving respect, huh,” she sighed and shook her head.Embarrassed, Carlos yelled, “D-Don’t twist my words! I only asked you what you do in general.”“Yeah, but I doubt you meant that.”“Huh? What’s that supposed to mean?” he sat down next to her on the rolled-up mat. She gave him a look, and he stood. “C-Can’t I sit next to you?”“I’m your master. Can a bondslave sit beside their master?”“B-Bondslave?” T

“Let’s go,” Thomas turned into a large falcon, and the bald guy jumped and sat upon the bird. Together, they flew over the street pretty fast.A couple of kids who briefly saw the large falcon were slack-jawed, but by the time they rubbed their eyes and looked again, the falcon was gone.Thomas and the bald guy burst through the glass wall and landed not far from where Akira and Carlos were.“W-What’s with that falcon?” Carlos’ eyes were as wide as they could be. “I’ve never seen such a big bird.”“It’s not a bird,” as Akira was saying, the falcon turned back into an old man, whom Carlos immediately recognized. “He’s an Awakened Treswing, so he can fully turn into a beast. Any beast that he had eaten the heart of.”“T-Thomas Origins!” Carlos’ heart jumped into his mouth.“Mm?” Thomas didn’t recognize Carlos. “Who the hell are you? Where’s Charles?”“C-Charles left,” Carlos hid Charles’ mask quickly. “If you want, I can relay a message.”Thomas didn’t even care about Carlos. His gaze w

Carlos felt utterly powerless the moment the black wooden stake pierced through his heart like metal digging through butter.All the veins and arteries in his chest felt ruptured immediately. The sudden internal bleeding seized his whole body. He looked half-dead already.“NOOO!” Akira cried out.She instantly turned into a vampire and closed in the distance. “Here’s the halo,” she tempted Thomas with the halo, but then threw it into the distance.Thomas’ eyes glowed; he let go of Carlos’ neck without a second thought and ran for the halo.Akira’s nails turned red, and she swiped at Jericho’s arm that had driven a stake into Carlos’ chest. Her nails slashed through the arm and severed it asunder.“AARRGGH!” Jericho stepped back in shock. He couldn’t believe this woman had just managed to cut through his tough scales so effortlessly. Before he could do anything, Akira took Carlos and dashed out.He chased her, but she was too fast, even while carrying Carlos.Once she had exited the bu

Many days later.Carlos woke up, and he found himself in his old room built on top of the grocery store. To his surprise, the cloaked woman, Akira, was cooking something while humming. It smelled good.He checked his chest. It was just fine. There were no wounds on his body, either. He was wearing new clothes.It felt strange, to say the least. The last thing he remembered was getting pierced in the chest by a wooden stake, and then everything went blank.“You finally woke up, huh,” Akira sounded exhausted as well as relieved. “Now I can finally go on my way.”“H-How long have I been out?” he asked tentatively.“Just 12 days.”“T-Twelve days?” He paused for a couple of seconds and then started checking his pockets.“Are you looking for this?” She lifted her hand, and his mobile was in her hand.“Y-You were using my mobile?” Carlos’ gaze sharpened. “Without my permission?”“I had to pass time somehow, so I was only using the internet,” she said, tossing the mobile to him. “I didn’t ans

Carlos called Laurel and Sofia, but neither of them answered his calls, understandably. They were the daughters of billionaires, and he hadn’t answered their calls. It was only natural that they had chosen to maintain their pride.He could just keep calling them until they answered, but he didn’t want to look desperate. He also didn’t want to irritate them.“Let’s give them a day to think. Hopefully, they haven’t found a boyfriend in these couple of weeks. I’m not worried about Laurel, but I can’t say the same about Sofia. While most women date men either for sex or for money, she dates them to feel superior, as if she wants to keep validating herself about her superiority in front of her friends. Maybe that’s why she never liked me. She probably didn’t like marrying me, but she couldn’t refuse her dad. She probably redirected all that anger on his dad toward me.”Carlos was surprised by his own thought process.“I couldn’t figure this out in the past. Why do I feel like I am suddenly
THE RESUSCITATED SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER 85
Carlos didn’t go to dinner even though Samuel had invited him. The reason was simple. He had no bank balance. He didn’t have the money to buy even a good suit, either. So he could only waste his time by roaming around the city in the dark.A couple of thugs tried to rob him. He gave them 100 dollars each, but they asked for more. And he gave them more. Beatings.Fang loved it. But he didn’t like that Carlos hadn’t taken the money back from them. If it was up to Fang, he could have probably stolen what the thugs had on them.Other than that, nothing noteworthy happened. Carlos returned back to his room, hoping to get a reply from Akira.He saw an envelope and roses plastered to the door. He quickly opened the envelope and checked the contents with expectation. There was a note, and a credit card inside. It was a special use-and-throw card given by the Supreme Bank. It was known as the Castcard. Once all the money inside was used up, no more money would be added, and the account would b

AUTHOR'S EPISTLE
THANK YOU:: The Resuscitated Son-in-law… I never thought this would be the first novel I ever get to finish, but I don’t regret it after writing the last few chapters. 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
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

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
