A couple of days later.

Delle, the most obedient and punctual and also sane maid in the Sterling villa, brought coffee in the morning to Rebecca who was now basically staying on the balcony most of the time.

Because she was feeling so cold from staying outside, she grabbed the coffee without hesitation.

Delle was still standing there with the ceramic plate in hand, so Rebecca said, “You can leave.”

“Um…” Delle went out of her way to speak her mind. “Ma’am, if you don’t mind me telling you this, I don’t think what you’re doing is good for you. It will affect your health negatively, and you won’t be able to look healthy when Benjamin returns.”

Rebecca was surprised for a second. She glanced at Delle. “You think Benjamin would return?”

“I believe he will,” Delle didn’t sound too sure, but Rebecca could sense some honesty in her eyes. Till now, nobody in the villa had shown this much hope for Benjamin’s return, except for Akash. Even her sister Veronica didn’t believe in his return anymor

    The moment Rebecca left the villa in her car, Louis followed her. Bella had to stay in the villa to look after her children.Selena immediately called Brian on her mobile. “She’s coming. You prepared everything well, right? If this fails, I don’t think I can give you another chance. I’m already so tired of many people failing.” Because she was a woman with a high success rate in her acting career as well as in many things she put her mind on, she had been vexed ever since Benjamin came into the sterling villa and began to turn Rebecca’s mind.“I’ve prepared the perfect thing,” Brian assured confidently. “It’s a highly advanced humanoid robot that will be posing as Benjamin. There’s no way she’ll be able to spot any difference.”“A robot?” Selena frowned. “Are you fucking kidding me? She’ll easily be able to tell the difference when she kisses him!”“No, she won’t. As I said, this robot resembles humans in almost every aspect,” Brian said. “Their skin is also highly realistic. They can

    As Dahlia kept fighting and destroying the demons coming out of the sea and also cast the crimson mist away, a new squadron of demons manifested in the clouds. These were all demons with big, scary features that even Akira was able to see, though she trembled at the sight of them. It was too frightening to watch, for all the clouds above their heads looked like enemies gathering to destroy them.Akira stepped back in fright. “I-Is this some sort of holographic technology that I’m seeing, or… are they all…”Dahlia took a deep breath as she looked up at the sky. “The plague of demons… that’s what they’re. They roam the world and bring destruction upon every city and town they visit in the form of light, winds and clouds. Even when an airplane passes through them, they harass the people in it in many ways. Most people don't even know that the sky is full of these things, though.”“W-Why the hell are they here now then?” Akira didn’t understand why Dahlia looked so calm when the figures i

    “Y-You’re joking, right?” Rebecca really thought that the librarian was showing her wicked sense of humor.“Do you think the police would call me just to crack a stupid joke with me?” the librarian snorted aloud. “If you want to see his body, you should hurry to the scene before the ambulance arrives to take his body for inspection. That said, I suggest you don’t go. It’s not worth crying at a thief’s dead body.”Rebecca’s gut twisted. She raised her hand and almost slapped the librarian.“You can hit me if you want, but then I’ll put you in jail,” the librarian said with a smug face. “Then you won’t even be able to see your husband’s dead body.”Rebecca spat at her feet and rushed out.“Don’t you want to know where the police caught him?” the librarian asked, but Rebecca didn’t stop.After exiting the library, she called Brian and told him what happened. “Please, help me. Benjamin might still be alive. If he’s taken to the hospital, then he can still be saved.”“I will do everything

    The next day.Rebecca brought Benjamin’s body and had it buried in the backyard of the Sterling villa. Though many people in her family objected to her, she threatened them she’d leave the family if she wasn’t allowed to do even this much.“Do you want to make us live next to a grave?” Elizabeth was the most vehement in terms of showing contempt. Her mother, Dorothy, also supported her, saying that she wanted to sleep in peace in her old age while also reminding Rebecca that she didn’t bury her husband Nolan in the backyard.Rebecca replied to Elizabeth's question with another question. “Do you want me to bury you along with Benjamin?”After that, Elizabeth had to swallow her frustration. Nevertheless, she still ran her mouth, saying, “I can’t believe that this bastard is going to bother us even after death. He truly is one of a shitty-kind.”Rebecca didn’t respond to such insults because she was out of energy, and the only thing that mattered to her right now was to build a nice grav

    Brian greeted Akash and Veronica before leaving the villa. He also waved his hand at Bella and Louis who were on the balcony. They didn’t wave back at him, but he didn’t really care.“He’s a real piece of shit,” Bella uttered. “I feel like drinking his blood right away.”“Don’t,” Louis grabbed her hand, trying to control her impulse.Bella glanced at him. “You… Do you want him to be around your sister? After everything you’ve seen him do?”“No, but there’s no need to hastily kill,” Louis said.“Hmph, his life is worth nothing,” Bella snorted. “And when are you going to tell Rebecca that the Benjamin she buried is a fake? There’s just no way he would have died from a few bullets.” Though Bella and Louis didn’t inspect the dead body because everything except the face was sealed away after the post-mortem process, they still believed that it was a fake body. “I’ve never really talked with Rebecca all that much before, but I still feel bad for her. She’s gone through so much, and she does

    In the present day, anyone over six feet would be considered tall. However, there was a time when a six-foot man was considered tiny. It was when the giants roamed the earth, and chaos prevailed over everything else.Rye, who has entered the realm hidden beneath the earth’s surface, known as the Hollow Earth, came across many depictions of stories on the walls. There were even statues of the likes of Gilgamesh who had likely come to this place during his quest for immortality very long ago.Rye’s path was full of bones of giants, monsters, and men alike. The smell wasn’t unbearable, but it was far from being pleasant.“These bones… if they fall in the wrong hands, they’ll use the DNA to create hybrids. I don’t want to waste my energy, but I can’t ignore this.”From the history that Rye learned, a lot of wicked things were done by those in power to gain military advantage over the enemies. Though there were no longer kings in the current modern society, the real power still was within

    Akira roamed throughout the town and people meditating and practicing martial arts bare-chested when the temperature was extremely cold outside.One of the locals saw her and said, “A vampire is not welcome into our place. If you don’t want to hurt yourself, I suggest that you remove yourself from our sight.”“Ah, I apologize,” Akira quietly walked away. She didn’t explore too much and returned to Dahlia’s side.Dahlia was waiting outside a house.“Where’s Rye?” Akira asked.“She’s had some business to take care of,” Dahlia said, knowing that Akira didn’t feel that comfortable when around Rye. “What about you? You came back early. Did they not greet you in a friendly manner?”“What makes you think they’ll greet me like I’m their friend?”“Well, they’re the type that believes that strangers might actually be angels in disguise,” Dahlia said. “So, they don’t treat strangers poorly.”“Angels, huh… I never thought that angels were real,” Akira sat down next to her.

    Once Mina’s body was sealed up as per Dahlia’s request, Akira thought she could leave. However, Dahlia still stayed in this town, waiting for Rye to return.“Where exactly did Rye go?” Akira asked. “Can’t we go and help her if she’s late?”“I gave her two days, so let’s be patient,” Dahlia said with a smile.“How can you smile in this situation?” Akira muttered under her breath. “I’m feeling very tense because the locals have been giving me cold looks. And they seem to have strange technology that can probably help them fight against vampires. Otherwise, they wouldn’t so blatantly show hatred and hostility toward me.”“The vampires have brought much trouble upon them, so it’s just cause and effect,” Dahlia said. “What goes around comes around. Even though you didn’t directly harm them, they still hold a grudge against all vampires. They can sense the danger you possess from your energy.”“My energy?” Akira raised her brows.“Your thoughts are negative toward them, and they can sense t

    Selena had been busy talking with many businessmen from all across the country. The people from the film industry also came to the Sterling villa with bouquets and gifts.Some gifted her luxury cars, while some others wanted her to act in their films, so they were showing their call sheets and asking for her movie dates.They were willing to pay her as much as twenty to fifty million dollars per movie.Selena, however, didn’t reckless sign on every movie she got. Out of the dozens of stories that came to her, she only picked two so far.And she was quite happy with her current situation.To show her gratitude to Uzza, she came to her and gave a key to Uzza who was in the kitchen with Delle.“What’s this?” Uzza asked.“One of the movie producers gifted a private jet as advance payment for agreeing to do his movie,” Selena replied.Delle’s eyes enlarged very much. “A-A private jet? How much does that cost, ma’am?”“32 million dollars,” Selena casually replied. “This is just the start. I’

    “How did you feel when you first saw Veronica? Tell me the truth,” Uzza was questioning Akash while he was watering the plants in the backyard.“Obviously…” Akash was about to say something, but his husband-radar sensed his wife coming up from behind, so he said, “when I met her on our first date, I became pregnant.”Uzza spit out the corn kernels in her mouth out of shock. “What?”“Pregnant with love, I mean,” Akash added.“Why are you exaggerating?” Veronica pulled Akash’s ear. “When we first met, I smelled his hands first. They didn’t smell like curry, so he passed my first test. And then, we talked about other things.”Akash shook his head and giggled helplessly.Seeing Akash blushing, Uzza could see that he was in love with Veronica more so than Veronica was in love with him.Veronica then climbed on Akash’s back and hugged him from behind.“What are you doing?” Akash complained. “Can’t you see that I’m working?”“Work while carrying me.

    As Veronica handled Akash roughly, punishing him for his farts, he yelled at her and told her to do the exercise herself to understand how tough it was, but then Veronica did five sit-ups and made them look so easy. She didn’t have any abs, but her abdomen looked very beautiful because of the skin folds and the type of dress she was wearing.“See? It’s so easy,” Veronica hissed at him. “Now, do just like how I did. Don’t inhale while getting up. That’s why you’re farting like a pig. Breathing is everything. Without that you won’t be able to execute any exercise with control.”“O-Okay,” Akash helped her get up. When he saw Rebecca and Benjamin at the door, he was so embarrassed he went to the other end of the gym.“You have come far, Veronica,” Rebecca was proud of her sister. She used to teach her little sister all the time, and now it felt nice to see her teach Akash how to do different exercises.“Haha,” Veronica laughed like a gorilla and looked at Benjamin, “do you want to learn f

    While Benjamin and Rebecca were about to go separate ways, Elizabeth came over to them.While smiling a bit awkwardly on the surface, she asked, “Brother Benjamin, my bank card is having some issues. Can you please pay for the piano? I’ll pay you the money soon as my bank issue gets resolved.”Rebecca’s eyes slightly widened because she had seen Elizabeth trick so many people with the similar tactic. In fact, Rebecca herself had fallen prey to this move a few times long ago.“No problem,” Benjamin took out a card. It was a platinum-coated card with the symbol of ‘W’ on it, made with diamonds.“Wow, are these real diamonds?” She was shocked. “What kind of bank gives these cards? I would like to have this, too.”“It’s a secret bank known as Eternity Bank, so it won’t be easy to get you one card, but I will try,” Benjamin told her.“Thank you. You really are so kind,” Elizabeth smiled happily. “May I know the password for this?”“It doesn’t have a password.”“Oh…” Elizabeth didn’t quite

    Once Benjamin walked out of the room, Rebecca met him and asked in a low voice, “What did you tell him?”“I did what I could,” Benjamin shrugged. “I’m not sure how to handle this type of a situation, but I think it’s something he has to change from the inside. No matter how much we say, he won’t change unless that spark of change comes from within.”“So, we should just create an atmosphere that will make him self-realize and then get rid of his bad habit, huh.”“That would be anything but easy, though, because we never know what works and what doesn’t.”“You are right, but we can’t just give up on him. Even though I don’t like Elizabeth, I can’t ignore her kids who grew up right before my eyes,” Rebecca replied. “I told my brother to not give them mobiles when they’re young, as they might get addicted to games, which they did… But now, they are in that age where hormones will make them want to watch new things. If we let them get out of hand, they will be ruining their careers and thei

    George saw Rebecca alone, waiting outside Roshan’s room. He used this opportunity to come up to her.“What are you doing here, Rebecca? Did Roshan cause some trouble again?” George was folding his sleeves. “Let me teach him a lesson.”“Stop!” Rebecca hit his shin bone with her foot. Because of her footwear, he cringed in pain. “Why do you assume things? I’m standing here just because I want to. Nothing else.”“You expect me to believe that?” George harrumphed. “You are such a bad liar. The day you brought some random guy into the house and said you loved him and married him, everyone else might have believed your words but I didn’t. There’s no way someone like you who’s so capable can fall in love, much less marry a pizza-delivery guy. Compared to him, I’m so much better!”“You are wrong, George,” Rebecca calmly and confidently replied. “Benjamin…” she lightly smacked her own head. “Ahem, I mean, Benyamin is a billion times better than you.

    Rebecca knocked on a door.“Who is it?” Roshan asked from the inside, a hint of anxiety in his voice.“It’s me,” Rebecca replied. “Open the door. I’ll just have a quick few words with you, that’s all.”“A-Aunt, I don’t want to talk to you right now,” Roshan replied. “Please go.”“I’ll talk with him,” Benjamin told her in a low voice. Rebecca then walked away and stopped at a certain distance.A minute later, Benjamin knocked on the door.“Hey, I’m Benjamin,” he said. “Can I talk to you?”“No, I’m busy right now,” Roshan answered.“It’ll only take a minute,” Benjamin persisted. “I won’t bother you afterward.”“Tsk,” Roshan, annoyed, walked over to the door.Benjamin knocked on the door again.Roshan quickly opened the door with a hostile look. “What?”Benjamin smiled and stepped closer and put his arm around Roshans’s shoulder. He then shut the door from behind him and even locked it without looking back.“W-What are you doing?” Roshan nervously asked.Even Rebecca, who was outside, co
