The Rise of the Urban God CHAPTER 236
The next morning.Calvin woke up and checked on his wife first. Fiona was still sleeping. “She’s gone to the bathroom four times. She should be feeling dehydrated.” He touched her feet, and they were hot. “As I thought… She needs some water.” He got up from the bed and walked, only to feel more pain in his knee.Nevertheless, he slowly walked to the door and opened it. He entered the hall, only to see Mollie sitting alone on the couch, as though waiting for him.“You’re not walking so well,” Mollie asked. “What’s the issue?”“Inflammation… in the knees,” Calvin disinterestedly replied and was heading toward the kitchen.“Wait,” Mollie poured water from a copper jar into a 300ml glass and then mixed lemon juice. “Drink this. It will make you feel better.”Calvin was thirsty, so he didn’t refuse it. But after drinking it, he looked disappointed. “I like drinking cold juices.”“That’s a bad habit,” Mollie said. “You should always drink liquids at room temperature as much as possible. If

Calvin looked for Ulmer but didn’t find him anywhere in the house, so he asked Mollie where he was. She told him Ulmer and Ben were sleeping on the rooftop.Calvin was shocked. “They slept outside? How would they bear the cold?”“They are young, so they can bear it, Mr. Calvin,” Mollie said, smiling because Calvin and his family members were so rich they were acting like sleeping outside was a difficult thing when it was not an uncommon thing for the middle class and especially the lower class people.Calvin wasn’t willing to climb the stairs, so he had to wait for them to come down.Meanwhile, on the rooftop.Ulmer was sleeping soundly, which annoyed Ben quite a bit. He was already awake. “Tsk, I couldn’t even get good sleep because he kept snoring like a pig!”Ben sat up and looked angrily at Ulmer who was seemingly having the sleep of his life. He felt like pouring a bucket of cold water on Ulmer right now.“His family died, but he’s able to sleep so well,” Ben shook his head. “I g

Ivy woke up late that day, so she quickly came to the kitchen to prepare breakfast, but to her surprise, Mollie had already finished cooking it.“W-What are you doing here?” Ivy looked at the items. “Did you cook all these?”“Yeah, you were sleeping, so I thought I should help,” Mollie said.Ivy frowned. “You should have woken me up, but you made use of the situation to cook this crap. You think they’re going to eat what you made when you haven’t cooked in years?”“Your husband grew up with the food I made, Ivy,” Mollie retorted. “Even after your marriage, who made you food? Didn’t you quarrel with your husband, saying that you don’t want to cook or clean? Didn’t you go back to your house and stay there for months? By God’s grace, you changed your mind because you got pregnant. Otherwise, you probably would have taken divorce back then, right?”“Don’t put words in my mouth!” Ivy hissed at her. She would have shouted, but she didn’t want others to hear their quarrel.“I’m only stating

As Ulmer served Calvin and Fiona, Mollie served her son Jamie.All three of them tried the salad first because it was more eye-catching compared to the other two dishes.Calvin hesitantly tasted the dish, but his impression immediately changed. Fiona also looked at him, and they nodded together. Their body language clearly told Ivy that they were satisfied by its taste.Ivy waited for Jamie’s response.And Jamie faintly smiled at his mother after tasting the salad. Though he didn’t say a word, Ivy could see that he liked the salad.Just Mollie served the salad to Ivy and said, “Actually, my daughter-in-law tasted the salad first and then added some salt, so she’s also responsible for its taste.”Calvin and Fiona looked at Ivy, forcing her to smile awkwardly.(Is she trying to embarrass me?) Ivy quickly tasted it and didn’t find any excess saltiness to it. (What the… I’m sure I added extra salt to ruin its taste, so why does it taste the same as before? Did she somehow remove the salt?

A few minutes after Jamie and others finished their breakfast, Amelie and Ben separately had the breakfast, and Amelie was all praises for Mollie and asked her if it’d be possible for her to teach Amelie how to cook.“Uh, I don’t think that’s a good idea,” Mollie said, knowing all the hurdles before her. Firstly, Ivy might get extremely jealous and angry if Amelie were to learn from Mollie. And this might upset Ben, too.“Why not?” Amelie asked, clueless about the relationship between Ivy and Mollie. “Ben, don’t you want me to cook like this for you?”“Yeah, but I know how to cook, so I will cook for you, Amelie,” Ben said.“Huh, I ate the omelet you cooked once. There was so much oil in it that I felt my tongue and mouth burning,” Amelie said. “You should also learn from your grandmother along with me.”Ben was unable to counter that.Meanwhile, Ulmer was talking with Calvin in the backyard.“This house isn’t as big as the mansion I grew up in,” Calvin said, “but it’s not a bad place

Ulmer was talking with Calvin, so he didn’t notice the snake attacking Mollie, but the moment she screamed, he dashed toward her like wind.After biting Mollie, the cobra went for Fiona straight away.Fiona fell back in shock, and the cobra raised its hood and scared the shit out of her. As it went for a bite on Fiona’s foot, Ulmer suddenly appeared and caught it by the head and squeezed it.The snake’s head was crushed, and it died right away. Ulmer tossed it aside and quickly took a look at Mollie’s bite. He could see the nasty double bite mark and beyond it. The venom was spreading fast through the blood as well as the muscle.“U-Ulmer…” Mollie looked very nervous. She might be old, but clearly, she was afraid of dying.Ulmer immediately bit on the wound and sucked the blood and venom out. By the time Calvin arrived there with his sick knees, Ulmer finished spitting the blood out.“Don’t worry, Grandma,” Ulmer told her. “We will go to the hospital soon. Nothing will happen to you.
The Rise of the Urban God CHAPTER 242
Though Mollie was bitten by a snake and was scared of dying, she felt happy as she was coming out of the hospital, holding her grandsons’ arms on either side. This was something she never thought was possible, so she said, “Both of you are family, but also try to be friends. Never turn your backs toward each other no matter how difficult the situation of the other person is. That is what friends and family are there for.”“Grandma, let’s be frank,” Ben was having none of it. “We are going to live in different places, working different jobs. We will barely have time to meet each other, so being friends is a bit too much to ask for, don’t you think?”However, Mollie smiled. “During the early days of my marriage, your grandfather Mike had to work far away, so I had to stay home all by myself. I was still waiting for him so much that I would mix sugar in place of salt, or pepper in place of sugar. I would mess up the dishes because I would think about him all the time. Call it love or obs

After they finished eating, the bill was brought to the table. It cost over 800 dollars. Seeing Jamie leave, Ulmer was taking his purse out, but Fiona gently pushed his hand down.Calvin then paid with his credit card, and he paid fifty dollars each to the four waiters. He also told the manager a column in the R & R newspaper will be written on this ice cream shop soon, for which the manager thanked him beforehand.As everybody was getting into the cars, Ulmer told Mollie, “I have some work, so I’ll be back home by nighttime.”“You can do that work tomorrow, right?” Mollie said. “Just focus on recovery for today.”“I’m feeling just fine, Grandma, so don’t worry about me,” Ulmer shut the door, and both the cars drove away.Ulmer waited until the cars were almost disappearing from his view, and then he started jogging at a high pace, hoping that he’d be targeted again. At the same time, he sent a message to the original Ulmer to find out if anybody in Syslon knew about the organization
