Even after the party ended and all the guests left, Selena was nervous because the security detail members were still in the villa.Uzza had told her she’d take care of them, but she hadn’t done anything yet.As if the tension she had wasn’t enough, Veronica and Akash entered the building, holding each other’s hands.Selena immediately frowned. “Veronica, I’m glad that you returned, but why did you return with that trash?”“Mom, he’s not trash,” Veronica politely responded. “And I’m not a child anymore to run circles around you.” She locked her arm around Akash’s arm. “It’s time for me to run circles around my husband.”Selena felt the brain in her head boiling and bubbling. “Just when I thought I could be happy after Trashmin died, you brought this trash into the house. Didn’t you see how many esteemed guests came to the party tonight? There were many millionaires and billionaires among them. Your so-called husband is not even qualified to clean their boots!”Both Akash and Veronica
The next morning.Rebecca came out to the balcony while brushing her teeth. She rarely came out of her room while brushing. Today she was feeling tired and sleepy, so she didn’t care about such things.She saw Kathy sending Samuel off, and Samuel seemed to be very happy and enamored by Kathy. He was even waving his hand off.Rebecca felt her eyes bleeding from what she was watching.“Ah, what have you done, Mom…” Rebecca could still feel pity for Kathy. “Are you going to stoop to any level to get what you want? What are you planning to do with Samuel Sehla that you forced Kathy to sleep with? You were initially planning to trick Andrew, but that didn’t work out, so you shifted your target to Andrew’s son instead.”Disgust filled her eyes.“Why are most men like this? Whenever they see a decent-looking woman, they forget about their wife and children back home. How can they ruin their family life with their own hands?”The more she thought about, the more frustrated she got.As the sun
Selena woke up and was waiting for Uzza to come out of her room. She was reading a newspaper in the living room on the first floor, when she saw Vlad passing by while sipping something from a packet.“What the… is that a blood bag?” Selena’s heart shook for a second.“I-It’s grape juice, Grandma,” Vlad was startled by her but quickly replied.“Grape juice? Since when are they selling grape juice in plastic bags?” Selena asked. “Bring that over.”Vlad shook his head and ran to his room.“This little…” Selena frowned. “He’s acting strange. Then again, he’s always been strange. It’s not autism, but it’s something else for sure. We should get both him and Mercie checked. It’s one thing if they’re strange as kids, but if they keep acting like this even after growing up, it’ll be troublesome.”Just then,Veronica came and sat down next to her mom and took the newspaper from her hand.“What’s with that attitude?” Selena coldly glanced at her. “Are you losing respect for your mom after you ma
In the heart of Rachel Hill, which was part of a vibrant city, the sun painted the sky with strokes of orange and pink.“The sunset from this rooftop isn’t half bad,” Rye commented while Uzza was sipping on coconut water next to her.“This is nothing compared to the views we get at our home, though,” Uzza responded. “But have you noticed the change in the moon last night?”“Yeah, it was…” she looked to her right and saw a drone disguised as a bird flying in their direction. With a little squinting of her eyes, she caused the drone to lose control and crash into a tree.The surveillance department people of the government who were controlling the drone were shocked by it. “What just happened? We were zooming on that absurdly large villa, and then… the signal was gone. We lost control over the drone, too.”“What kind of people are in that villa?”“They can keep the president buried in their backyard, so they’re no joke.”Using the heat signatures, they could tell that Andrew was buried
Rebecca crashed onto the road. Had she not landed on her hand first, she would have gotten badly bruised if not injured.“These days, it’s become a fashion for bitches to bump into men and trap them into falling in love with them,” the big man who punched Rebecca down angrily barked and stepped closer. “If I don’t teach your kind a lesson, then my name is not—”Rebecca punched his face as he leaned forward to grab her.“Argh,” he backed away.Rebecca got up and quickly ran away.He chased her.Though there were some onlookers, none of them intervened.Rebecca took her mobile out to call Jane, but to her shock, the balance on her mobile finished. She quickly called the police and alerted them of her situation.Afterward, she ran into a shopping mall as there were many people there. She told the entrance guards that a man was harassing her.The guards stopped this man from entering the shopping mall, but he punched them and hurriedly entered the mall.He was panting but he looked angrie
In the end, Rebecca and Jim walked home together.They didn’t know that Louis was following them from a distance. He had always been following them, even before Rebecca bumped into the big man. However, he didn’t want to interfere unless it was absolutely necessary.“It feels quite strange to see Rebecca and everyone remembering the son-in-law as Benyamin and not Benjamin,” Louis thought. “I feel tempted to tell her everything, but what if it does more harm than good?”“The girl who yelled at you at the shopping mall,” Rebecca asked Jim. “She was rich and good looking. Why didn’t you accept her proposal?”“Her attitude cannot be matched,” Jim shook his head just thinking about it. “Your family is also rich, but you are walking with me now. Eleanor would never do something like that. She acts like stepping foot on the ground without footwear is cheap. She said she wants to go on international trips every month, and during the trips, she doesn’t even want to enter a cab. She wants priva
Rebecca thought Selena already had her plate full of things needed to deal with, so the last thing she expected from her mother was to arrange a date, not with one man but with two men on the same day.Rebecca got so frustrated and angry she just didn’t know what to do. If it was in the past, she would have just completely ignored her mother, but she really felt offended this time.Nevertheless, she smiled and said, “Mom, send me their numbers and other details. I’ll meet them tomorrow.”“Oh, thank you, my little pigeon,” Selena gave her a quick hug. She was expecting her daughter to give her a cold shoulder, so she was as happy as a clam at high water. “From here onward, you’re going to live a royal life. I promise.”Rebecca then went upstairs to her room.Veronica came to her mother with a bit of a shocked expression. “Did she really not complain about you setting up a date for her?”“Haha, she didn’t,” Selena rubbed her nose. “And you should watch and learn from her. She realized h
The next morning.A green lamborghini and a black ferrari stopped outside an open restaurant at the same time.Out of the green car, a 27-year-old long-haired youth stepped out. He was Brook Gray, the CEO of the Gray Corp with a turnover of 1.8 billion dollars last year.Out of the black car, a 19-year-old stylish young man stepped out. He was Lucas Moore, the new chairman of Moore Holdings with a revenue of over 25 billion dollars last year.Both the young men started staring at each other from the moment they stepped out of the car. Brook’s expression was a little icier compared to Moore’s expression.“What brought a Moore to a simple restaurant like this?” Brook snorted.“That’s my question,” Lucas calmly and confidently approached him. “You are the type who likes to show off. You wouldn’t come here unless it’s associated with a girl. Are you dating someone?”“You came here in a Ferrari, so you shouldn’t talk like you’re a humble guy,” Brook let out hot air through his nose before

Some days later.Sofia Myers ordered pizza from an apartment she had recently bought.And to her surprise, it was Benjamin who delivered it.“It’s you?” Sofia remembered him. “Aren’t you Rebecca’s husband? You both are having an official wedding soon, right? Why are you still working as a pizza-delivery guy?”“I have my reasons,” Benjamin replied. “And it’s more of a part-time job now.”“Okay, come on in,” Sofia told him.When he entered the apartment, there were over a dozen females there, smoking and drinking.“This guy is Benjamin, a mighty pizza-delivery guy who married a bald woman,” Sofia started making fun of him to make her friends laugh.Benjamin quickly countered her, saying, “It seems your husband has left you to your pleasures. I’m not surprised, though I might not have done the same thing.”Sofia gritted her teeth and threw her mobile at him.Benjamin caught it with ease. “A woman who easily gets angry will have a hard time obtaining a place in any man’s heart.”“Get the
Samuel Sehla and Kathy started dating.And Amber began to work for the Sehla family now, acting as a spy for Kathy.Samuel’s wife, Kismet, got sent divorce papers. Half of her face was still paralyzed.She tore the divorce papers into pieces. “How could you do this to me, Samuel! I will not let you get what you want!” she screamed madly. “Never!”Andrew Sehla, on the other hand, was busy dealing with all the new troubles and terror he was facing ever since he tried to do some good after getting forced by Benjamin a few weeks back.“I don’t have much longer to live anyway,” Andrew thought. “So I’ll live it in a way that it doesn’t leave any regrets.”Knowing that his time was short, he started passing some groundbreaking laws in the country.In the Sterling villa.George was begging his mother Dorothy to let him be the driver of the Sterling family.Dorothy didn’t know that George knew about Shawn killing Nolan beforehand.So she told him that he could work as a driver, but then Elizab
“Why can’t I meet him once?” Lisa yelled at her mom. “If you’re not going to let him see me, then I’ll leave this house!”“You think I’ll come running after you?” Elizabeth yelled back. “Leave the house if you want! No one is stopping you!”Lisa then angrily left the house and walked away on her bare feet, crying and shedding tears.It had been weeks since she had seen her dad, and she just wanted to talk to him once more and know how he was doing, but her mother was not even letting her contact her dad.Lisa didn’t know for how long she walked, but her stomach started growling.It was twelve in the afternoon, and she hadn’t eaten anything. So, she was really hungry now.She looked across the street. There was a bakery.Lisa touched her pockets and frowned as she didn’t have any money.She put her hand on her abdomen and rubbed it for a few seconds and was then walking away.“Lisa, what are you doing here?” Benjamin who was traveling in a truck had just made the driver stop the vehicl
In Sciocidad also known as the Sky City.“So she asked for more time…” Ryan sighed.He became the temporary ruler of the Wolfe clan.“Both Benjamin and Rye have left this seat, which is something that never happened before,” Ryan’s voice was gritty yet sad. “This doesn’t set a good example for the coming generations, especially given that we’re living in the end times.”“Don’t tell me, you’re planning on making someone else the sovereign?” Uzza quickly asked.“No, not yet,” Ryan replied. “We’ve lost a lot already. We can’t be wasting our people’s time or give them false hope. It is better to pick a new ruler, but I will wait a little longer.”Even though Ryan didn’t say it, Uzza felt that the time limit would probably be six months.“Come back soon, Rye,” Uzza wished in her heart.Elsewhere in the same city, in a dark dungeon.“With a friend like you around, what’s the need for enemies?” Benyamin was hissing at Dahlia as she poured her spiritual energy into Benyamin’s spine relentles
Rye’s POV:My first and only love has truly left me.After cutting my heart into pieces without making me bleed… That’s how he left me.My tears won’t fall.I can’t feel anything.Neither sadness nor regret.Nothing.Even though my one and only love has abandoned me, I can’t even shed tears.Just what kind of a person am I?What kind of a woman have I become?I keep cutting onions in one the huts of Rye’s Pizzas, but even the raw onions are not able to bring me to tears.“How long are you going to keep doing this?” A voice washed my back.Without turning, I knew that it was my mom Uzza.“Choose someone else as the sovereign,” I said, continuing to cut the chillies, hoping at least the chillies would elevate my anger.“You’re making the same mistake that Benjamin did,” my mom sighed. “Everyone is waiting for you, so please come back.”“I have no intention of returning any time soon,” I replied.My mom’s hand touched my shoulder. She slowly turned me around.Our eyes locked each other.
A few days later.At six in the morning.Rebecca woke up and found Benjamin resting with his head at her legs. “Benjamin, why are you sleeping the other way? You’re not a cat. Sleep next to me!”Benjamin rolled over to her side and lay next to her, sharing the same pillow. “Last night, I woke up for water, and then I saw the mole on your thigh, and I wanted to sleep next to it.”Rebecca’s face flushed very much. “Stop it, you are talking like a child!”“Aren’t we both still children in our relationship?” Benjamin gently touched her chin and planted a kiss on her cheek.Rebecca’s face gained some more blood. The same could be said for Benjamin. Both of them were fair and were in the prime of their age, so they appeared a thousand times more attractive when blood rushed to their faces.After Benjamin kissed her, Rebecca felt her emotions stirring up again. She pulled the blanket up and covered both of them and hugged him tightly and showered kisses on him.“I think it’s time for breakfa
The moment blood gushed out of Rebecca’s neck, while her eyes were staring at him, Benjamin immediately snapped.“BENYAMIN~~!!”His roar reverberated through the hearts of all the people there, shaking their very souls.Benjamin’s suit was ripped to pieces as he grew into a mighty silver werewolf and leaped forth.In a flash, Benjamin’s claws cut through Benyamin’s shoulder and snatched Rebecca.Benjamin vanished from people’s sight and landed on the rooftop.Dahlia and Uzza took Benyamin and also vanished from there.Rye stood frozen, and so did Selena and everyone from the Sterling family. The guests were also thrown into chaos as a man had turned into a monster right before their eyes.Louis and Bella were quick to act. They cast a wide spell together, which swiftly erased the recent memory of this wedding itself.However, they did not remove the memories of those from the Sterling family.Almost every guest collapsed on the floor afterward, but Selena and others were still standin
The wedding night has arrived on time just like the full moon in all of its splendor.Rebecca did not look happy because Selena did not send invitations to most of the people she should have.Selena didn’t want this wedding news to be spread around the world, either, so she tried her best to suppress it from behind the scenes.Jacob also played his part in doing what his wife wanted him to.Shawn entered the villa, wearing a disguise, as he wanted to see his sister’s marriage and also see his wife and kids once.The wedding was taking place in the front yard.Benjamin was standing in the distance, far from the crowd.Jane and Veronica brought Rye out of the villa. Dressed in dazzling white, she looked like the walking moon.Benjamin didn’t even look in her direction as his back faced the villa.Holding a bouquet of white roses and lilies, she waited for the groom.Moments later, Benyamin also walked out of the villa, as escorted by none but himself. With a hand in his pocket, he walke
