“I asked you because if you are still fertile, then there’s still a chance for you to get pregnant,” Mollie said, despite knowing that Kristi would likely ignore her words. “Listen tome.You should first stop eating iodine salt, which is one of the main reasons for your health deterioration. Thyroid and womb are both connected. Because of too much iodine, your body has become a mess. Start eating sea salt instead, and eat a little bit of activated charcoal everyday. Brush your teeth with it,too. And it will get rid of that iodine and other bad things in your body. Your health will improve gradually.”Kristi was so angry by the fact that Mollie was talking about such a sensitive issue so openly, it made her completely lose her cool. “Shut your damn mouth. I never asked for your advice, you old cunt!” she viciously waved her hand at Mollie’s face.BAM~!Her slap was so fast that nobody there had the time to react and stop her, except for one person, the one who was also most angered by w
Even though Mollie had left Ross’ house, she was still feeling anxious. She had spoken confidently with Jude that she would go to the police, but she already knew that the police wouldn’t care.“Let’s go to the police station,” she told Ulmer.“Do you really think they’d take our side, Grandma?” he asked her.“If there’s an honest cop, then they will take our side,” she replied.“If the cop takes our side, then they will trouble the cop, too.”Mollie frowned. “Then what can we do? Just thinking about what Jude might do to us is making my blood feel cold.”Ulmer put his arm around her shoulder. “Leave it to me, Grandma.” He took out his mobile and called Ririka and told her, “I need a car. Please send it to the address I’m going to text you.” Saying that he ended the call.“What’s this?” Ririka was a little annoyed. “Does he think I’m his assistant or something?” Even though she didn’t like it, she still proceeded to help him.“Who did you call, Ulmer?” Mollie curiously asked him.“Jus
This was the first time since her husband Mike died, Mollie was able to get on an airplane.An hour-long trip through the air brought them to Salem city, which was also Mollie’s birthplace.She never thought she’d see this city again where she had so many memories from her childhood and her young age. She immediately felt nostalgic just from smelling the breeze in this city.Mollie grabbed Ulmer’s hand and thanked him for bringing her here.As they left the airport, a Benz SUV was waiting for them, with a new chauffeur holding a board with Ulmer’s name on it.Ulmer whispered something in his ear.Mollie smiled but said nothing. She wondered where he was taking her for the meal.As the car drove through the city streets, Mollie grew a bit emotional, remembering the past and how much fun she and Mike had when their kids were still young. Things were good back then. Issues only started popping out when her sons grew up and let the importance of money in their lives dominate everything el
Later that night.The engagement of Ben and Amelie was supposed to happen at Dream Summit, but because of its mysterious destruction, the engagement function was taking place at another convention owned by Marcus Merry himself.Upcoming and medium-tier and high-tier celebrities attended the event, all thanks to the Richard family’s influence. But there were no top-tier celebrities as Ross had not yet entered that billionaire range.Ross was planning on using this engagement function to establish some connections, and Marcus also was one of his targets just like how the Myers family was.Because Ulmer didn’t accept Sofia’s proposal, Ross’ request with Sofia didn’t quite go well, so Ross was hoping he could at least strike a good deal with Marcus.While Ben didn’t quite like that Ross and Jessica were too busy talking with different guests instead of staying with him and Amelie, Jamie and Ivy didn’t seem to care. They were also busy bragging about their family, their lineage and their s
The guards saw both Ulmer and Mollie coming in the Rolls Royce car, so even though they were wearing a chauffeur’s hats, the guards just thought they were being funny. They didn’t even ask for the invitation cards and allowed them to enter the convention center.Ulmer and Mollie kept their heads tilted down, and the first thing they did was find the corner seat in the hall.It was a big hall, spanning about 12,000 sqft, and they were at the south-east corner right now.“U-Ulmer, it’s a bit too cold in this place,” Mollie told him.“I think they put on the AC.”“Find the remote and increase the temperature,” she said.Ulmer didn’t want to get up, so he used his power to raise the temperature in a few seconds, which made the other people start sweating and wonder why the temperature was high. They were asking the server boys to lower the AC temperature. It caused a bit of a commotion.“They are lowering the temperature even more?” Mollie was shocked. “Are they trying to kill me? Can’t t
“We don’t have time for games right now. I will deal with them right now in my own way!”Jude blurted to his wife and then went toward Ulmer and Mollie like a big bull in fury.Ulmer didn’t even turn back, but his gaze slightly lifted up. He turned back and grabbed Jude’s fist that came flying at him.THWACK~!A loud noise erupted, and it caught some people’s attention.“U-Ulmer!” Mollie turned around and was then even more shocked to see Jude.Jude pulled his hand back and looked Ulmer in the eye. Ulmer calmly stared back at Jude without backing. Jude was like an alpha while Ulmer was like a sigma. The tensions were rising, and everybody was intently staring at what would happen next.Jamie and Ivy and Jessica others eventually saw what was happening.“W-Why are they here?” Ivy hissed at Jamie. “Go and stop them before they ruin the event!”Amelie also told Ben to do the same.Jessica frowned. “Those idiots dare cause a mess in my daughter’s engagement function?” she had enough of it
Marcus gently held Ulmer’s hand and kissed it.Ivy’s eyes bulged out of her sockets. “W-W-What’s going on? W-Why is Marcus kissing Ulmer’s hand? A-Are they in a relationship?”Jamie’s heart was also racing. “I don’t think that’s what it is.”Sofia Myers was biting on her finger. (That was unexpected. To think a big fish like Marcus is kneeling before him… He must have some serious backstory. Now, I’m getting why he rejected my offer.)Ben and Amelie had their jaws stay open.Even Ross had a similarly shocked expression. Why was Marcus acting like a subordinate to Ulmer? Just what the hell was going on? Dozens of questions kept popping in his mind.Jude and Kristi both looked quite stunned as well as nervous because they believed that they had done a great mistake, and they could already think of the consequences of having gone against a person that even Marcus immensely respected. It was one thing to talk respectfully, but to kneel and even kiss the hand in public… this was beyond eve
“A vampire hunter?” Ulmer was surprised. “I thought he was affiliated with vampires?’“The swamp is not fully united, Master. There are factions that work with vampires and factions that oppose them.”“So, he belongs to the factions that oppose the vampires.”“No, Master. He works for the vampires and hunts the deserted vampires or the ones that hinder their plans. He even targets all opposition factions and kills them,” Marcus said. “Because he’s strong, he can do all that. If it’s him, he might know a thing or two about the 300 Thorns. But like I said, his strength cannot be underestimated. Even my former boss didn’t take him lightly, so I assume he’s not just strong but also has the backing of very big figures. We don’t want to treat him lightly.”“I will deal with him later,” Ulmer told him and then walked away with his grandmother.Marcus was about to escort Ulmer, but Ririka and Drake joined Ulmer, so Marcus went over to greet Rick.Rick saw Marcus and offered a shakehand, whic
