Salem was the name of the city Rebecca was born in. This was where the Sterling villa was located. It was known as the city of peace.

At the four entrances on the borders of the city, the city had pillars raised on either side of the road and were joined by a frame where the lion and the lamb sat together.

These were established not by the city management but were personally funded and governed by Rye after she entered the city. She wanted this city to signify what it was named after. In order to do that, she wanted to get rid of all the dark forces in the city, especially the trafficking rings.

She did succeed to an extent in achieving her goals, but still, it proved a bit too much for her to do everything by herself.

The number of crimes happening in the so-called city of peace were too many to count.

In the end, she had to return within six months of leaving her clan. There was only so much she could do in that time period, but she did make enough memories in this city for her to f

    Rebecca left the villa in her ‘blue’ Porsche.George was watching this from the balcony. “How can I get my hands on that Porsche? How long is she going to use that car? It’s already a few years old now. How can I trick her into giving me that car? Should I just mess with that car and then when she asks what’s wrong with it, I’ll tell her that it’s better if she just sells the car as the repairs would cost half as much as buying a new car? Would she fall for such a blatant lie?”Just then, a new car entered the villa.“Who’s this?” George was wondering, but then a familiar face stepped out of the car. “Shit,” his heart sank into his stomach because it was Sofia Bacic, that one that had raped him the other day.Sofia looked up at George and waved at him.“W-What do you want?” he asked.She pointed her finger at him. “You. Thomas wants you back. If you don’t come with me, he’ll send his men.”George frowned. He had made a deal with Thomas, and things were going great for him, too, until

    Jim’s dad, Marcus, was talking with his lawyer Bernard while working with Verella's body.Verella was his wife who died a long time ago.Marcus was holding a syringe in his hand.“What exactly is inside that,” Bernard asked, “which makes you think it’ll wake her up?”“There are a trillion nanobots inside this thing,” Marcus said. “It’ll help stimulate her brain and heart once again.”“So, you’re restarting the brain and heart through artificial means, huh. Do you think it’ll work?”“Well, these nanobots have been filled with the past memories that Verella and I shared together, so they’re going to make her remember everything.”“What if it backfires?” Bernard asked. “What if she becomes an inhumane, soulless monster or something and ends up attacking you?”“C’mon, Bernard. You’re watching too many movies.”“Well, I’m just stating the possibilities,” Bernard exclaimed a bit. “There’s no guarantee that those nanobots which you didn’t create could be used against you.”“Yeah, you’re righ

    Jim was cooking as well as serving all the customers by himself. He was very busy, but then he saw Rebecca entering the restaurant.He quickly came to her. “I was not expecting you.”“I came here to return this,” she said. “I’d have forgotten if I left it somewhere in the house, so I brought it.”“Thank you,” he took the bag.“You look busy. Don’t you have any other workers?” she asked.“The waiter was sick, so he didn’t come,” Jim said. “And my dad went out somewhere on personal work, so I had to deal with everything.”“Uh, I can give you a hand if you want.”Jim was pleasantly surprised by that. “Do you know how to cook?”“No, no, I was talking about serving the customers,” she quickly replied. “You take care of the cooking. I will serve the food.”“H-How can I let you be a server?” Jim shook his head. “You’re the daughter of Selena Sterling. You can’t be working as a waitress in my restaurant.”Just because Jim said those words, Rebecca wanted to do the work even more. “Just leave

    Jim had met many gorgeous women, but he barely ever felt outmatched in terms of looks. He was born with near-perfect genes that would make men and even women envy his looks. However, right now, he was feeling envious of the two people that stepped out of the taxi, especially of this red-haired wonder who looked so pristine and with such clear spotless skin that she looked like she was out of this world. How can such women even exist? He thought he was perfect, but this woman was making him feel a bit inferior.In his eyes, Benjamin also had the perfect face that was neither too manly nor feminine. However, Benjamin was shorter than him, so his subconscious mind didn’t feel outdone by Benjamin. He could feel himself as a match to Benjamin, but the same couldn’t be said for Rye.Both Jim and Rebecca were pale-skinned, but the skin of Rye and Benjamin were pale and rosy. Their faces were full of life.“What’s going on here?” Rye stepped forward and asked her. Her voice was like the sound

    Uzza was enjoying the mango, sitting on the couch in the main hall.Just then, Rebecca entered the building along with Rye and Benjamin. Seeing her leading them, Uzza was utterly baffled.“Why are you shocked to see your own daughter?” Rebecca asked Uzza. “You two can keep talking. I’ll tell the maids to prepare some food items.” Saying that she left.Rye sat down next to Uzza. “Do you have another mango?”“What are you doing here?” Uzza asked her but then looked at Benjamin. “Why did you bring her along? Are you okay with her being here?”“She said I’m her lover,” Benjamin replied, “and Rebecca didn’t say anything. It seems she really forgot everything that happened between us.”“Yeah.”“Does that mean she doesn’t even remember getting married?” Rye asked.“No, she does seem to remember that, but she just doesn’t remember being married to Benjamin,” Uzza said.“How strange…” Rye wondered. “But this is also good in a way. Isn’t it, Benjamin? She forgot about you, so she can move on wi

    Benjamin came out of Rebecca’s room, feeling very sad as well as angry.The joke that the demons were playing on him made him feel upset. Just how low could these beings stoop? How could they mock him like this? How could they play with his feelings like this? How could they harass him like this?Benjamin came downstairs and sat opposite to where Rye and Uzza were sitting.Nobody else was around.“Did you find out anything?” Uzza asked.“Any clue?” Rye asked.“Not just the memories, but even photographic evidence has been changed,” Benjamin said.Rye’s eyes widened. “H-How’s that possible?”“It’s like we’re living in a parallel world with a different Sterling family altogether,” Uzza opined.“Yeah, that’s one way to put it,” Benjamin agreed, “but that’s not what’s happening. As you said, the times have been messed with. As a result, the memories of the people in this build have been affected. First we need to find out how far and deep this goes. Then we’ll be able to work on it.”“You

    Benjamin returned to the villa, still looking sad.Louis came to meet him at the gate. “You’re finally back,” he was smiling with excitement.Benjamin blinked twice. “Y-You… You remember me?”“Of course,” Louis said. “How can I forget you?”“B-But…” Benjamin didn’t know what to say. “But the others..”“Yeah, that’s crazy, isn’t it?” Louis said. “I woke up the other day, and everyone started behaving a bit differently. It kinda spooked me. I didn’t understand what was happening, but I dared and asked the woman Uzza, and she told me that this was done by some dark spiritual forces in high places. I asked her why, but she didn’t tell me. Do you know why this is happening? Why doesn’t anyone remember who you are? They are clearly hypnotized, but they somehow completely forgot you. That makes no sense to me no matter how much I think about it. Do you have any idea?”“Unfortunately, I don’t know much better than you do,” Benjamin replied. “But it does make senses, that they didn’t want the

    Benjamin entered the building with his eyes closed and hands in his pockets.Hearing some familiar voices, he opened his eyes.Lisa, Elizabeth, Shawn, and Roshan were talking about some on one side of the hall. Lisa saw Benjamin, and she kept staring at him for a little while.Benjamin waved his hand at her.“Oh my goodness. He looks so handsome,” Lisa quickly said.“Mm?” Elizabeth looked to her right and saw Benjamin. She was also pleasantly struck into silence by his handsome face.“Ahem,” Shawn cleared his throat.Elizabeth quickly shut her mouth. “U-Um, you must be… Benjamin, right? Miss Rye’s boyfriend.”Benjamin just couldn’t nod in return, so he came across as a bit rude.“He’s rude,” Elizabeth muttered under her breath while smiling.“Mom, look at him. He can be as rude as he wants,” Lisa said.“You are just sixteen! So keep your mouth shut!” Elizabeth pinched her daughter’s cheek.“Aw,” Lisa cried out.Roshan, on the other hand, came over to Benjamin and asked, “Why aren’t yo

    Shawn brought Benyamin into the villa.With hands in his pockets, Benyamin looked confident and comfortable, as if he didn’t fear anything.“Why did you hit Riley?” Jacob asked him. “For a man to kick a woman in the gut… something vulgar like that…. I never dared to even put such a scene in my movies. What are you thinking when you kicked her? What are you trying to prove?”Benyamin coldly looked at Riley, and she ran and stood behind her mother.“Look at him trying to threaten Riley in front of all of us,” Fiona blurted. “What more proof do you want? Kick this bastard out of this building!”“Why did you hit her?” Jacob asked Benyamin, but he didn’t respond.“Tell us the reason,” Rebecca stepped forward. “Why did you do it? If you haven’t done anything wrong, why are you hesitating?”“I’m not hesitating,” Benyamin replied. “That woman attacked me, and I defended myself. That’s all there is to it. If I really wanted to hurt her, I would have easily punched her nose and broke it.”Selen

    Fiona caused a lot of noise and attracted the attention of everyone in the villa.She told them how Benyamin kicked Riley without any conscience, and it enraged Riley’s brothers, uncles, aunts, and dad.Selena was also quite upset by it. “I knew he’s trash, but he stooped to another lower level now.”“He wouldn’t have hit Riley without a reason,” Rebecca backed Benyamin. “First, ask her what she did.”“Are you doubting my daughter?” Fiona glared at her. “You think your husband is a saint or what?”“Whoa, hold it,” Selena intervened. “You don’t talk to my daughter in that tone.”“Why? She’s a princess who rules this country?” Fiona snorted.“One of her hair strands is much more important to me than you and your whole family put together,” Selena replied without hesitation, leaving Fiona and her family members stunned.Benjamin was on the first floor, watching the proceedings. (It’s her obsession over her eldest daughter that has made my life difficult in this villa. She’s obviously not

    In the dorms.Maara was swinging the nun-chucks and was hitting two tennis balls against the wall.Benyamin was in the same room, lying on the bed, with his hands under his head. “When are you going to get married, Maara?”Maara didn’t say anything.“You should find someone suitable for you in this city,” Benyamin opined. “Then you won’t have to go back to Sciocidad. That place is pretty boring, isn’t it?”“No, it’s not boring to me,” Marra replied. “It’s where my friends and family are.”“Tsk, you’re boring,” Benyamin openly stated.Maara hit the tennis balls at an angle so that they flew straight toward Benyamin’s face.However, he caught them both with one hand.“Are you butthurt by what I said?” Benyamin smirked. “You are tall and dark. You won’t find a suitable mate in Sciocidad, so you should find your partner here among the commoners. I was telling you what's good for you, but instead of thanking me, you are getting angry at me.”Maara turned to face him. “I can’t feel it, but

    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
