Back at home, Lydia sprawled over the couch in a lifeless fashion, whereas Godfrey was staring at the TV gloomily. Two unfinished bowls of porridge and a plate of pickled vegetables sat on the table.Yvonne’s anger spiked when she took in the scene. Could they not take care of themselves without Samuel? Did they really want him to make their meals for the rest of their lives?“Mom, don’t tell me that you forgot how to cook after not going into the kitchen for a few years? Are you going to starve to death when Samuel doesn’t fix your meals anymore?” Yvonne lamented as she cleared the table.Lydia refused to say anything. Her husband loosened a resigned sigh. “She’s stewing over that two hundred thousand,” he said. “She even said that our living expenses will have to be halved.”Lydia immediately sprang into life when the word ‘money’ was mentioned. “From now on, you’ll only get five hundred bucks for living expenses,” she said to Samuel in a commanding tone.“Five hundred?” Yvonne storm
At dinnertime, Godfrey received a phone call. No one knew what he and the caller were talking about, but his expression slowly contorted into a grimace.After he hung up, he looked as though he wanted to speak, but could not bring himself to say anything. Lydia piped up after gauging the situation. “If it requires us to spend money, we won’t go.”“Fred Turner called me. He’s inviting us over to his new house,” Godfrey said. A house-warming party meant that they needed to provide a gift, but trying to get money when his wife was in such a state was akin to asking her to commit suicide. However, Fred had personally called him. It would be rude to not show up.“Did Uncle Turner move?” Yvonne asked.Fred was an old classmate of Godfrey’s. The two had been close buddies before, where Fred had even wanted Yvonne to be his daughter-in-law. The two had grown apart after Samuel married into the Sues though. “Yep. I heard that he moved into a duplex apartment,” Godfrey answered.“We’ll only be
“Since you guys here today, why don’t all of you come along? All of us should be visiting Godfrey’s new place too.” Fred fanned the flames and roped everyone in the house into the matter.“That’s right! We should take a look at it too. Who knows if it’ll be as big as Freddie’s place?”“Godfrey, where’s your new house?”“You’re a Sue. The area must be at least as prestigious as Fred’s, right?”Godfrey nodded his head awkwardly, at a loss for words. What new house? They were barely managing to feed themselves; they did not have the money for a new house.Fortunately, Fred’s son was not around today. Otherwise, would have created even more trouble for Samuel.After they had lunch, Godfrey excused himself from the party. Fred reminded him to give a call before he left, and the other old classmates looked as though they were wishing him luck with the situation.Samuel even set a date and told them to visit on the fifteenth of next month. He would inform them of the address then. That made L
In their room, although Yvonne had a gut feeling that Samuel’s house would not be as luxurious as Fred’s, she was still curious about the location of the place. Their unit was on the sixth floor now, and they had to climb the stairs every single day. The exercise just wore their bones down quickly. Even if the house was not in an area as nice as Fred’s, she would be happy if it had an elevator.“Are you still going to keep it a secret around me?” Yvonne asked her husband.“You actually see it every day,” he replied, smiling.“Every day?” Yvonne frowned. Disappointment tinged her chest. If it was a place she saw every day, it would likely be confined to the boundaries of their residential area. If so, her dreams of not having to climb the stairs every damn day were dashed.“Oh, right. Do you have any plans for tomorrow?” he asked. “It’s a Sunday.”“I already promised to go shopping with Linda. I have to remedy the pain you inflicted upon her,” she said, glaring at him.Samuel did not kn
Yvonne did not have too high hopes because Samuel mentioned last night that it was a place she saw every day.If it was a place she saw often, it should probably be near her housing area.Seeing as Samuel brought the subject up, Yvonne wanted to make sure of it and asked, "Where?" Samuel stretched out his hand and pointed to the villa halfway up the mountain, saying, "There."Yvonne froze for a long time before chuckling and looking at Samuel speechlessly. "Are you bragging in front of me? Let’s hurry home, Linda is still waiting for me to go shopping with her."Before Samuel had any time to explain, Yvonne had already run away.However, it was reasonable for her not to believe it. The hillside villa was auctioned for a price nearing the hundreds of millions. Who would have thought that the buyer behind it would be the Sue family’s trash son-in-law?Samuel smiled faintly, looked at Yvonne's rear figure, and muttered to himself, "You’ll find out on the fifteenth of next month. I hope y
"Samuel’s the one who bought the two cars in our home, and he also bought a house recently. It’s a second-hand house, but it’s already good enough." Yvonne did not tell anyone about that. Linda was the first to know, and also the person that Yvonne had wanted to tell since the very beginning.Linda's mouth gaped in surprise. She thought that the car was bought by Yvonne with money from the company, but she did not expect it to be Samuel’s doing. Two cars worth millions and a second-hand house? That guy was rich!"Yvonne, how can you let a man have a secret stash? Don't you know that this is taboo? It’s capital for him to stray away in the future." Linda glared at Yvonne and chided angrily.Yvonne shook her head indifferently. That was never her worry. If Samuel wanted to cheat, he would have done so long ago. Why would he wait? After three whole years, everyone knew his position in the Sue family as well as the extent of humiliation he suffered. If none of that propelled him to feel di
"Let’s head there then. It’s not like there’s anywhere I can’t go," Woody patted his chest and assured her.The two of them got dressed and headed for the hillside villa.Woody felt a little nervous along the way. He was silently praying not to bump into the owner of the hillside villa, otherwise it would be difficult to explain himself.The reason for Cloudridge Hill Villas’ status as a luxurious residential area was because of the wonderful environment, but the most important aspect was its privacy. Each villa had its own private area and it was against the rules for others to trespass. The rules had only ever been violated once ever since the villa area was being resided in. After all, the people living there were not just any ordinary people—most of them understood the rules well.Before even reaching the hillside, the petite woman was already starting to feel excited, while Woody was increasingly on edge and had a bad feeling in his gut."This villa is the largest in the entire Cl
"Woody, what are you doing, these people...""For f*ck’s sake, quit talking nonsense. Shut up," Woody ordered sharply.The petite woman was shocked. Was it possible that the security guards in Cloudridge Hill Villas were all big shots? Why would he have such a fierce reaction if that were not the case?"You... You look familiar. Are you from the Cohen family?" The security chief walked up to Woody and asked coldly.Cold sweat suddenly appeared on Woody's back and he immediately said, "Give me a chance, bro. I was just curious. It won’t happen again.""Hmph," the security snorted coldly, then said, "Come with me. The Cohen family has lived here for several years, and it’s not like you don’t know the rules. Since you’ve already trespassed into someone else’s place, you should know what price you’ll have to pay."Woody was so scared that his legs became weak. ‘Go with him?’ He heard that the management had a special room to deal with people who broke the rules. A few years ago, a rich man
On the other side of the sea of blood, the intensity of the battle was completely different.The monster controlled the body of Samuel. Without the entanglement of the ancestor, it was a complete blow to anyone present.More than a dozen top masters couldn't even get close to him from beginning to end, not to mention taking advantage of him.In just a few moves, more than a dozen top experts were instantly knocked back.What was even more terrifying was that these things were not built on the abnormal moves of Samuel. Most of the time, he simply used his original power to attack these people.Of course, Hei Feng and his men were not bragging since they could be their positions. Although they were completely overwhelmed by Samuel in terms of IQ and their cultivation were not as good as Samuel's, they were still far behind the monster.But in fact, with the cooperation of the team, these people would not be completely defeated by the monster in a short time.These guys attacked on
In less than a moment, the villa master had already arrived at the underground door accompanied by several personal guards.Outside the underground door, the commander in charge of the daily life of the Blood Sea couldn't help but hurriedly step forward and kneel on the ground when he saw the Manor Master arrive in person."I pay his respects to the villa master." He was very surprised and shocked for a moment. Clearly, he didn't expect the villa master to personally come to the frontlines.However, after the shock, he also felt that this matter was indeed very serious, because the Famous Shop had rules. Generally speaking, the villa master would never come to a place like the front line.Not only was the frontline dangerous, but the most important thing was that in the eyes of Famous Shop, it was a very disgraceful thing.However, now that the Villa Master had arrived, everything would naturally be different.This was unprecedented, but on the other hand, it was bound to be a cr
The villa master hurriedly got up, “Yes, Honorable Lord, please tell me what to do.”"Nightsky City was first defeated, causing there not to be many troops near you. Moreover, now that your bloodline has been damaged, even if there are troops, there might not be many who can support you."After the black-garbed men in the vicinity left the Famous Shop, many scattered teams focused on bloodlines.Wasn't that the case for those people Samuel dealt with?The reason why the Famous Shop was not so affected was that the Sage-gathering Manor the Zhou family gave us provided a lot of talents."Right now, we can only have the Burning Bone City's people take action.""However, you should know how complicated the forces in Bone Burning City are. Not only do they always oppose us, but there are also other scattered forces."If I send too many troops to help you, it will definitely be empty inside. At this troubled time, I am afraid that someone will take the opportunity to make trouble for
The villa master quickly walked to the door and opened it. The first thing he saw was that it was not his subordinate who was in charge of the announcement. The chill in his heart could not help but become even stronger."What is it?" The Villa Master suppressed all the emotions in his heart and asked as calmly as possible."Master, bad news. The ancestor may have been defeated. Now his life is uncertain, and the whole underground has begun to collapse. The envoy asked me to tell you that he is ready to lead all the people of the underground door to die bravely. He will either die there or come back to apologize to you after killing Samuel," the subordinate said.Hearing this, the eyes under the mask of the valla master were suddenly shocked."What?"Even someone as calm as him clearly staggered at this moment, momentarily finding it difficult to accept this reality."Master..." The subordinate was at a complete loss for a moment.The Villa Master opened his eyes wide and was st
Outside the underground gate, many soldiers died, which also completely shocked the manager of Blood Sea. But just a few seconds later, he suddenly realized."Close the underground door tightly. All those who are still alive, get ready to defend!"He shouted loudly.He knew very well that there must be huge trouble inside.The ancestor was also very likely to be seriously injured. The masters inside would be the second barrier, and here was the third barrier.Although he didn't have absolute masters here, hundreds of thousands of people were still a huge capture net."Come on." He waved his hand, and one of his subordinates quickly walked over."Go notify the villa master. Tell him that the ancestor might have met with an accident. I am incompetent and have let him down. Thus, I have already made preparations to die in battle. I will lead everyone outside the underground door and do my best to stop all of this until everyone here dies.""Envoy, there's no need to do that. There
"Bang!"As the monster's palm slammed down directly, the next second, the Ancestor's huge figure suddenly stopped and then exploded.Boom!An enormous explosion. The entire depression exploded, and the monster didn't dare to slow down at all as it quickly retreated.The entire sunken cave exploded, causing the entire wall to completely collapse. The huge vibration caused the entire cave to tremble wildly.The special envoy in white and the others didn't even have time to react before they were directly knocked to the ground.The cave collapsed, and the sea of blood was boiling wildly. A large amount of vigor and black air began to evaporate from the sea of blood."Ah!"What was even more terrifying was that there were quite a few disciples on the shore who suddenly clutched their chests. Their bodies seemed to have been set aflame, turning into black smoke.Then, they completely disappeared from everyone's sight.It was the same inside, as were the people outside the undergro
"See? If you had listened to me a little bit and taken some precautions, you wouldn't have been injured to this extent," said the monster coldly.There was no pity at all, only ridicule."Say, what a pity. With your strength, even if I were to fight back against you, you would not have suffered such serious injuries."The monster's words were very heart-wrenching.Every single word he said was correct, but every single word pierced into the Ancestor's heart.This was just like how the ancestor had been fighting against the monster in his armor. He had wanted to win too badly, and he had underestimated his opponent too much. That was why he hadn't worn any armor at all when stabbing at the monster.Once the enemy counterattacked, he could only use his physical body to take the attack head-on.Naturally, his injuries were extremely serious.Therefore, it was not wrong that the monster was ridiculing the ancestor, but in other words, it was not wrong at all. This was an iron-like
As soon as the monster finished speaking, the monster suddenly exerted force. Immediately, Samuel's entire body emitted a bright-red vigor and an incomparably great strength suddenly shot out from his palm like a hot metal rod.The ancestor was not prepared at all. In the face of the fierce attack of the monster, he could not withstand it at all.Just a moment later, he, who had been pushing the monster away, began to slowly retreat.The body of Samuel, who was originally dead on the wall, also quickly rose up and pushed outward little by little, and the Ancestor's body also slowly retreated."You... why are you still so powerful.""Impossible, this is absolutely impossible."The monster sneered. "Why can't it be? What I fought with you just now was just the power I released. Now, you are facing the power that exists in my body and Samuel himself.""I might as well tell you this. That power is actually even stronger than the power I released earlier."The ancestor was stunned.
"You... this... this is impossible! This is absolutely impossible!" The ancestor was shocked. For a moment, he couldn't understand. To him, Samuel had long since been possessed, and later, his fleshly body had been transformed into layers of mud and stones."Why can't it be?"The monster sneered and said, "I did occupy the body of Samuel, but don't you think there is a possibility that this kind of possession is not completely by force, but by the integration between me and him?""Integration?" The ancestor blinked. "You mean..."He suddenly thought of a very terrible possibility. That was to say, Samuel only coexisted in a wonderful way with monsters.It was not in a conventional sense. The monster broke through the restraint of Samuel and completely occupied the body of Samuel.It sounded like there was not much difference between the two, but in fact, there was a huge difference.Obviously, the latter was a monster. It just used the body of Samuel to come back for its own use
