Bunny came to Brian’s home to give him an update, but Brian wasn’t in the mood to hear, so Bunny talked with his mother instead. “I’ve pretty much confirmed that Rebecca’s sister is infected with a parasite. A strong parasite at that, but what I’m not sure is if that’s a natural parasite or a synthetic parasite.”“Synthetic, you say…” Brian’s mom frowned. “Has technology progressed that far already?”“Yes, ma’am. The technology of The Swamp is at least half a century ahead of what the public is aware of,” Bunny said. “The technology of cloning, holograms, nanobots are being perfected for decades already. So, it could be possible that it’s a synthetic parasite.”“Are those the only two possibilities?” she asked as she wondered if Andrew Sehla was behind this.“There’s the third possibility, too,” Bunny frowned this time. “I read in ancient books that they fed parasites to indirectly kill people in babylonian times. Demons used to possess these parasites and make people go crazy. It’s h

“Are you talking about me, my loving sis?”Veronica’s voice suddenly came from behind, making the hearts of Rebecca and Akash jump into their throats.When they turned, Veronica was right behind them, appearing normal, but there was something different about her eyes and her smile. It was very subtle, but both of them felt it.“What are you two stupidly staring at me for?” Veronica asked and looked around. “What with all this garbage? Are these microscopes?” she waved her hand before her nose. “Hmff, what’s with this bad smell? It smells like chemicals.” She looked at Akash. “Is this your doing? Are you trying to get a PhD in biochemical engineering or something?”Her slightly arrogant look melted Akash’s heart, and he immediately stepped forward and hugged her emotionally. “I thought I’d never see you like this again.”“Huh, what are you saying? Why do you sound like I woke up from a coma?” she asked.“Because you kinda did,” Akash quickly told her what happened, even though Rebecca

In the underground vampire city, Shambol.Zakaria and Cranston were drinking fresh blood wine in a bar while a half-naked brunette was pole-dancing in front of them.“You said you sent a worm into the villa,” Zakaria said. “What can a mere worm do?”“Fool. That’s no ordinary worm. That’s the vril worm. The nastiest worm that’s said to be capable of even possessing a vampire,” Cranston said dramatically. “Of course, us vampires can fight back and coexist with it, but a human surely will have no way of fighting back, unless their mind and body is very clean. However, I highly doubt that anybody living in such a big villa will have a clean mind.”“Mm, vril worm… the name sounds like the name of the city lord,” Zakaria said. “Is there any relation, I wonder?”Cranston’s expression changed. He leaned closer and said in a low voice, “Denise told me that he’s from the Sorian tribe, one of the eight original races of the vampires. That’s why he was able to rebel against the previous vampire k

Veronica did not fight as Rebecca and Akash jumped on her and sealed her limbs to the four legs of the bed.“Hey, why are you doing this to me?” Veronica innocently said. “I’m perfectly fine. I just didn’t like the smell of the salt water, that’s all.”“I won’t trust you,” Rebecca picked up the glass which fortunately still had some salt water inside. She tried to pour a drop in Veronica’s mouth, but Veronica quickly shut her mouth. Nevertheless, when the salt water fell and soaked her lips, she began to convulse a little.Akash’s eyes widened. “W-Why is she shaking like she’s having epileptic seizures?”“I’ve got no idea,” Rebecca stopped pouring the water and moved back. “Maybe, the worm in her body is going crazy? I wasn’t expecting such a violent reaction, though. I guess I severely underestimated the effect of sea water.”“It won’t kill her, right?” Akash looked really tense and worried.“C’mon, it’s just salt water, dude,” Rebecca said. “You act like you’re hurt more than my sis

Jane and Steve brought the wounded eagle to a veterinary hospital.The animal doctor saw the bird and straight away said, “Are you guys coming from the sea shore?”“Yes, doctor,” Jane was very surprised. “How did you know?” “Because this isn’t the first time someone brought an injured bird to this place,” the doctor said. “Please put the bird on the desk. Gently.”Steve put the bird down. As the doctor observed the bird, Steve asked, “Can it fly like before?”“You brought it quickly, so yes, if we reattach it and keep it still for a few weeks, it should be able to fly,” the doctor said to their relief. “However, it will be forced to put more weight into the other wing for a long time until this broken wing fully heals. If it’s outside in the wilderness, it might not survive.”“We’ll keep it with us then,” Steve said, and Jane didn’t look all that willing.The doctor, however, was happy to hear that. “Since you said you’ll keep the bird with you, I’ll do the surgery for free.”“Thank

In the sterling villa’s main hall, Brian’s mom noticed that Jacob and others were staring at the big television screen.“This must be Andrew’s doing,” Jacob blurted in anger. “He purposely put the murder blame on her because she left the villa. Now the police are going to be after her. Andrew doesn’t even need to do anything, and the cops are going to catch her and bring them to him.”Selena looked at her second son. “Why the hell did she leave? She even took the children with her! How can she be so stupid? Now she’ll need to keep escaping from the police. The children are going to be scared. Does she want to permanently scar them or what? She’s not even answering my calls. Call her, and tell her to come back.”Louis stood rigidly, with his arms folded across his chest. “She left the villa knowing that things like these will happen. If she can’t face the heat, she’ll come back on her own.” Saying that he walked away.“This guy…” Selena smacked her own forehead a little. “Is this the t

After treating the eagle, Jane and Steve were coming back to the hotel with the bird placed in the back seat inside a cage. Because it was drugged, the bird was still sleeping.“Do we really have to take care of this bird?” Jane stretched her voice as she drove the car.“I know we came here to enjoy ourselves, but this is also part of life. If we help this bird now, who knows, we may receive help from someone else in future,” Steve tried to reason with her.“I don’t believe in that karma crap,” Jane blurted. “It’s just made to control people’s minds.”“That may be the case, but it is true what we reap what we sow. If we do good, something good will happen to us sooner or later.”“And how do you know that? Personal experience?”“Yes.”“But my personal experience says otherwise. If we try to be friendly with someone, it only gives them the chance to backstab you, so your sowing-reaping philosophy utterly fails in this case,” Jane said.“Well, it actually doesn’t,” Steve said while combi

In Brian’s home, Brian came to the basement where there was a clone of Rebecca that looked very similar to her but not quite like her.“Hello, darling,” she greeted him with a smile and came to hug him, but he pushed her away.“Don’t. I’m not in the mood,” he said and began to check something on the computer.“If you’re not in the mood, then why did you come here?” she asked. “If you’re frustrated, I can help you.”“No, you can’t. You are a soulless trash,” he calmly said, making her smile fade away.“But you did give me intelligence, didn’t you?” she said. “I think I can do a better job than you think, Master Brian.”“No, you can’t. To be honest, I don’t feel that great after fucking you,” Brian said. “It leaves me with an empty feeling because I’m not doing it with the real thing, the real woman, the real Rebecca that I have feelings for. You’re nothing but a lump of silicon and metal.”“But I’m just like her in many ways, am I not?”“No, you’re not. You only look like her. You don’

George came to Rebecca who was sitting in front of a piano she hadn’t played in a long time.“Will you help me with learning the piano?” George asked her politely.“I myself am relearning it, so, no,” Rebecca replied, “uncle.”George laughed. “I’m your brother-in-law, not your uncle.”“Both are fitting,” she retorted, “in this case.”George found it embarrassing and frustrating that she wasn’t giving him any face even though he was just trying to be friendly, albeit with hidden intentions. “Do you know what happened to your sister’s husband?”“Akash left, it seems,” Rebecca said.“Yeah. But the shocking thing is that Veronica isn’t crying,” George opined. “Even enemies will shed tears as they’re parting, but… how come your sister isn’t shedding a tear? I didn’t know her heart was so cold.”“It is good that she’s not faking her crying like some others do,” Rebecca replied, startling George.“I-Is that what you think? Now that you put it that way, I don’t disagree.”Just then, Fiona arr

“Haha, did Veronica’s husband really go back to his country?” Fiona laughed excitedly as she privately talked with her daughter Riley in a guest room. “I didn’t think things would happen so smoothly. Now, we just need to introduce one of our rich allies to Veronica, and the rest will take care of itself. I should also deal with Rebecca’s husband, too.”“Mom, I need to tell you something,” Riley said.“Go on,” Fiona was eating sweet bread which Delle had made.“I…” Riley hesitantly said. “I think I’m in love with Benjamin.”Fiona choked on her bread.Riley quickly gave water.It was only after drinking the water, Fiona was able to breathe again. She took a few deep breaths and looked at her daughter in shock. “Are you fucking kidding me? You have a wedding soon, and you’re saying you fell in love with Rebecca’s husband? A pizza-delivery guy?”“No, mom. Rebecca’s husband is Benyamin, the guy with the wolf haircut, but the one I fell in love with is Benjamin,” Riley clarified, “the guy w

“It’s obvious that your sister has come here with a goal,” Selena was talking to Jacob in his room. “Fiona is a snake through and through. We can’t let her stay here for long, or she’ll cause our family to split up. If we give our daughters to the billionaires she refers to, then they will try to have control over our family. You do realize that, don’t you?”“So you want me to send my sister and her family away when they came to our house after so many years?” Jacob asked her back in an annoyed voice.“Yeah. You can’t hesitate with a snake, or it will bite you when you’re most vulnerable,” Selena added. “If you don’t send her away, she will stick in this house for a while and make a mess out of our family.”Jacob thought about it. “I can’t do it myself, but I know someone who can.”“Who?” Selena curiously asked.“Your eldest daughter,” Jacob smiled.“Rebecca?” Selena was surprised for a second. “I see. If Fiona confronts Rebecca about her marriage, then Rebecca wouldn’t just watch. If

“How are things with your family, brother?” Fiona asked.Selena raised an eyebrow. “You’re in a family that deals with real-estate, so you should already know how we’re doing.”“Haha, I do, but outside information can only be trusted so much,” Fiona responded. “Recently, we’ve worked hard on getting a marriage deal for Riley. Her fiance owns a reputed sports agency that deals with covering all the popular international sports. He earns hundreds of millions every year, but his father is a tycoon in the alcohol industry. Their net worth is in tens of billions.”“Good for you and your daughter,” Jacob smiled.“By the way, Brother,” Fiona glanced at Veronica and Akash. “What does Veronica’s husband do?”Jacob’s expression slightly changed.Veronica frowned and looked at her mother who was looking back at her with a rather poker face.“He is staying at home for now,” Veronica said openly.“Pfft, he’s jobless?” Riley snorted. “Your taste is so bad, Veronica, not just in terms of finding a pa

Benjamin went to the first floor and waited in the hall until Rebecca left her room.Then he went to her room. The door was locked, but he solidified his energy in the keyhole and opened the door.He entered the room quietly and saw the water bottle on the table next to her desk. It was half-full.Benjamin took out the vial and poured a drop of water into the bottle while saying ‘I love you, Rebecca.’He entered the bathroom and poured a couple of drops in the bathtub while once more uttering the three words ‘I love you, Rebecca.”He was about to come out of the room, but then he stopped and then ended up leaking another drop of water on the pillow, and another on the blanket. “I love you, Rebecca.”“Hopefully, this will help,” he thought.Benjamin then hurriedly left the room and then went to the rooftop. He mixed a few more drops in each of the four water tanks, while saying the words out, “I love you, Rebecca.”He looked at the vial.Three fourths of it was finished.He put the via

Despite Uzza, Rye, and Benjamin living in separate rooms, there were many guest rooms still available in the mighty Sterling villa, the best property on Rachel Hill.So, the families of Jacob’s siblings stayed in those rooms without any issue.But the problem was with the cousins, who were trying to show off. They acted arrogant and haughty with Veronica and even mocked Rebecca for the little hair she had on her head, not even bothering to wonder why exactly her hair was like that.Rebecca didn’t even bother talking to them, or sparing a word with them because she knew how selfish and self-centered these people were.Jacob and Shawn might have forgiven these people, but Rebecca couldn’t just act like nothing ever happened.She didn’t treat them badly, either. She just ignored them and minded her business.However, her cousin sisters got their eyes on Benyamin who was quite good-looking. Her cousin brothers were also unable to avert their eyes from Rye.Rye looked more like an exotic f

So many people started visiting Sterling villa ever since Selena herself had leaked the news of her buying a lot of land and buildings in Aurora Hills.Selena was sitting on the balcony, with Veronica next to her.“Why has the traffic increased so much?” Veronica said, “I’m seeing so many cars come and go recently.”Selena somewhat smiled and sipped on cream coffee. “I wasn’t born rich, Veronica. My relatives didn’t even let my parents into their homes or invite us to their functions because we were poor as church mice.”“Stop joking, Mom,” Veronica smirked with amusement. “You look like a million dollars. I’m sure our relatives’ sons back then would have wanted to marry you.”“You’re not entirely wrong, but they didn’t want to marry me as much as they wanted to mess with me,” Selena said. “I still remember one guy telling me, ‘I may look ugly as hell, but I can show you heaven in bed.’”Veronica went silent in shock. She didn’t think her mother’s beauty would have brought such terrib

Delle was bringing food, three varieties, on a big plate.Rye intercepted and took the plate from her. She brought it to Benjamin and sat by him under the tree.The grass was cool, even though the breeze was warm.“You think I haven’t noticed that you weren’t eating anything since you made that 40-day promise?” Rye said. “You were just acting like you’re eating.”She broke the bread mixed with fruit and brought it closer to his mouth.He didn’t open his mouth.“Do you want me to stop eating just like you are doing?” Rye said.Benjamin, who was staring into the distance, glanced at her. “Is it possible to love and hate at the same time?”Rye pursed her lips together, not quite understanding why he asked such a question. “I was angry with the things you did. I am still angry, but I don’t hate you. So, if you really love someone, I don’t think you can hate them.”“If there is no hatred in his heart, then how is Neel able to do this to me?” Benjamin asked, a hint of pain laced through his

Rebecca and Benyamin had breakfast together.This nearly made Selena’s eyes bleed. She didn’t think she’d live a day like this.Watching them eating happily was like injecting poison into her body.While she loved seeing her daughter happy, she couldn’t spare any mercy on the man who tricked her daughter into marrying him.Even now, she was thinking in her heart, devising plans on how to separate her daughter and her husband.Having lost the mood to eat breakfast, she came to the backyard.Amber was preparing the background setting needed for the interview.“Where’s Kathy?” Selena asked.“S-She’s with Samuel Sehla, ma’am,” Amber hesitantly said.Selena’s gaze turned a little icy, but then she smiled. “I knew Kathy had it in her, but I didn’t think she’d be able to grab the attention of someone like Samuel Sehla.” She looked at Amber. “What about you?”“I-I don’t plan on grabbing anybody’s attention,” Amber quickly replied.“Tsk, tsk,” Selena shook her head. “Try to grab Benyamin’s att
