Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 143
Rebecca came home after meeting with Sheila the lawyer. Veronica was taking the children to the movie, so she thought of Benjamin for a second. She wanted to watch with him, but she wasn’t in the mood right now.“I wonder what he’s doing. Should I call and tell him to go and watch the movie alone?” she pondered.In Elizabeth’s room, Shawn slapped his wife repeatedly even after she began crying. “70 freaking million! You think money is water? Who told you to buy a house and a private jet?”“I-I… I’m sorry,” she apologized in a crying tone. “I won’t buy anything without asking you again.” Her whole face turned red.Seeing her like that, Shawn gritted his teeth. “Come here.”She was shaking as he hesitantly approached him, thinking he was going to hit her again. However, he hugged her tightly and kissed her on the head.“Don’t make me hit you again,” Shawn’s eyes slightly teared up, though no tears leaked out from the corners of his eyes. “I’m afraid we’ll have to sell all those things y

“Get your hands off me!” Rebecca pushed Donovan away, which didn’t surprise him.“I think I’ve seen enough,” Catherine glared at Rebecca. “Don’t ever show your face around here again.” She shut the door in Rebecca’s face.“Wait!” Rebecca shouted. “You’ve misunderstood me, Aunt Catherine.” She knocked on the door five times, but there was no response.Donovan again put his hand on her shoulder. She turned to slap him, but he caught her hand.“Let go of me,” she yanked her hand, but his grip was so hard she couldn’t free herself.“I’m not possessive like your husband,” Donovan grinned, “but I’m sure I can definitely please you better than he ever can.”She went for a slap with the other hand. Again, he caught her and amusedly smiled. He was taller and stronger, but that didn’t intimidate her. However, what bothered her was that there were people watching, and they made no attempt to intervene.“I’m the kind of guy who doesn't take shit,” Donovan’s voice grew rough and sharp like a cutti

While the advertisements played on the screen, Rebecca noticed that Benjamin was looking at her instead of looking at the screen.She acted like she didn’t notice it, but then a minute passed, and he was still at it. She couldn’t act anymore. Turning her head, she looked at him. “Is something wrong?”Benjamin lifted his hand and gently stroked her cheek with his tentative fingertip.Her eyes closed, and she could feel his touch all the more. It felt like he was probing for something. As his finger moved along her jaw, her lips pursed. When the fingertip reached the chin, her lips and chin together trembled.He curled his finger in.She slowly opened her eyes, looking flushed and slightly happy. Her expression made her look even more beautiful. Would there be a more perfect time to kiss? He felt really tempted to kiss her. Rebecca was also licking her lips, trying to cope with the situation.Alfred got out of his seat and walked away. (Dammit. I really wanted to watch the movie. I gues

Rebecca tried calling her dad, but his number was busy all the time. She apologized to Benjamin and walked out of the theater. He said he would accompany her, but she said it was her family issue, so he couldn’t tag along with her.If only her family also trusted him like she did, how wonderful his married life would have been?Meanwhile, seeing the audience leave the theater, ranting about how crappy the production values were, Mina laughed like a hyena on drugs.“I’m glad I didn’t watch it,” she boasted.“Shouldn’t you be thanking me?” Shadow asked. “If not for me, you would have suffered like the audience.”“Hmph! Don’t try your luck with me, boy,” Mina glared at him before leaving, as she had to follow Rebecca.Shadow went over to Benjamin and sat on his bike. “Is the movie really that bad, my lord?”“It was really engaging for the first fifteen minutes, but then…” Benjamin shook his head. “The quality turned horrible. I think someone who’s envious of Jacob did this.”“Maybe it’s

“What the hell happened here?” Steve and many other police who arrived at a private golf course built in the middle of a forest were shocked by what awaited them. A bloody scene they had never seen before.Hundred men were littered around the field along with bikes and other vehicles parked here and there.Some were hacked to death. Some were decapitated. Some had their limbs severed. This was without a doubt the most gruesome scene he had ever seen.He bent down and observed one of the dead men, lying on the grass, shocked and his eyes wide open and full of horror. “The fear in those eyes… He must have seen others die around him. He must be utterly stunned to the point his eyes stayed open even after death.” Steve began sweating without realizing.Some other police recognized a few of those men. “These guys are street thugs from all around the city. Most of them have multiple murder and rape charges against them.”Steve’s brows knitted together. “Why were such bastards roaming freely

After the most horrible day of his life, Jacob didn’t sleep for long and woke up early the next day. He had always been a fighter, and he didn’t let the El Man disaster defeat him. His family expressed their sympathies, which was the only positive thing that had happened in the past twenty four hours.He began working hard to make things right, but the main actress of the El Man movie came forward and publicly stated that Jacob harassed him both mentally and physically. This led to a chain of confessions from other female actresses from Jacob’s previous films.This whole issue not only made Jacob’s life difficult, it made Selena’s life difficult to the point she couldn’t even attend her shoots. There were some audio leaks of Jacob flirting with the actresses, so whether he actually slept with them or not, Selena didn’t even want to talk about it with him.After that, nobody in the Sterling villa was talking with Jacob. Selena didn’t even let Kathy go near Jacob anymore. However, what

There was a wine glass in one bottle and a wine bottle in the other hand. There was no time for Benjamin to react the moment Jane grabbed his face out of nowhere. Moreover, before he could even comprehend why she suddenly lay hands on his face, she was upon him like a wind washing all over him.Her lips firmly pressed into his lips as she used all the momentum she could muster. Her eyes were closed, but his eyes weren’t. His eyes were far from closing. His heart jumped into his throat as shock shook his soul.Shadow who had been sitting on the edge of the couch watched with his mouth wide-open and all the half-chewed nuts up for view.Unlike Rebecca who never kissed anyone before on the lips, Jane was a supreme expert as far as kissing was considered. Benjamin’s spine bent backward in response, but she kept pressing forward, sucking his lips into her mouth so she could then force her tongue into his mouth.Benjamin’s hands dropped the bottle and the glass before pushing her away so ha

The next morning. Jane woke up in a good mood almost like a dog with two tails. “I had all these sweet dreams of being with Benjamin. Too bad I didn’t get to kiss him well because of his mustache. If I get another opportunity again, I won’t miss it. I will make sure he will fall for me, hehe.” She prepared coffee and walked out of her room, whistling to herself, only to see Donovan and Jasmine kissing by the stairs. She was stunned for a second, but then her eyes gained blood pretty fast. “What the hell are you doing in a public place?” she howled and splashed the hot coffee in their faces. “Kya!” Jasmine screamed in pain, but Donovan bore it. “This is my apartment, so if I see this again, I’ll kick you out,” she warned Jasmine. Both Jasmine and Donovan went into their room. “Why didn’t you beat her?” Jasmine yelled at him. “Just one slap would have been enough for that bitch.” “This is her apartment, so let’s not unnecessarily complicate things.” “Unnecessarily? She splashed

“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 a man, you should be able to do this muc

Kathy wanted to visit the mansion of the president to meet the president’s son, but she couldn’t go alone, so she took Amber with her. Samuel welcomed them, but Amber didn’t like the atmosphere and told Amber she’d go back. Kathy didn’t force her cousin and let her leave.Kathy then explored the mansion with Samuel, which shocked the maids as Samuel hadn’t done such a thing before. What if Samuel’s daughters and wife were to see what he was doing now? What if Andrew were to see?Andrew, on the other hand, was very busy. He worked with some media companies and celebrities and had them leak news on trafficking of women and children. He also had some sexual scandals released to divert some of the attention.The public thought that it was the work of the media companies at first, but as the news channels began to give credit to Andrew Sehla the president, everyone wondered if Andrew was behind this.As if living up to the people’s expectations, Andrew made some politicians and celebrities

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

Benjamin closed Roshan’s eyes and showed him some of his memories.When Benjamin went to door-deliver pizza, a man was kicking his wife out for cheating on her. He married her even though she was a single mom, but just four months after their marriage, he found her cheating on him.There was another instant where Benjamin found the same girl on the same day in two different places, sleeping with two different guys, and she even asked Benjamin to fuck her on the stairs between the floors. She seduced him, but Benjamin scuttled away from her.After showing a series of troubles he came across on his job, he then showed the challenges he experienced every evening when Rebecca came to pick him up in her Porsche.Even though Benjamin was her husband, he would try to court his own wife by giving her flowers, or sweets, or a special pizza he personally made. He would praise her, saying he had never seen her use the rear-view mirror for applying lipstick like he had seen many other women do it

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. He doesn’t bend his spine for money like 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

Veronica just finished bathing and was putting on one of those sexy outfits designed by her sister in the past. It revealed the entire midsection of the body, but hid everything else.Though Akash found it sexy, he said, “You really are not wearing that in the home, right?”“What’s wrong if I wear it?” Veronica retorted. “This isn’t even that revealing.”“Look at yourself in the mirror. It feels like I might catch a glimpse of your underboob if you were to raise your arms,” Akash said.Veronica squinted her eyes. “I’m wearing a bra underneath, you idiot. You know nothing about fashion. I’ve been bearing with your stupidity for a while now, but if I can’t even wear this type of clothing, then you should consider going back home and complaining to your parents about it! Because you need to really grow up!” After blurting out her anger through her words, she snorted and left the room.Standing by the balcony, she watched her father talking to guests downstairs.“This is meat tea, which D
