Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 15
Benjamin was dreaming about having the world’s greatest wedding until a maid’s voice woke him up.When he checked the time, it was already past nine in the morning. The maid was cleaning the room. His wife wasn’t there.“So it was a dream…” he shook his head. He and Rebecca got married in a small church with only the church members playing witness. Could it even be called a wedding? He wondered. None of her friends or family were present there. None from his side were present, either. While he didn’t hate getting married to Rebecca, the way their marriage happened was forgettable.As he was yawning, he realized that the maid was stealing glances at the bulge in his pants. “What are you looking at?” He covered it with a blanket.The maid anxiously left the room.He had to wait a couple of minutes for his morning wood to calm down. And then he hurriedly prepared and came downstairs for breakfast. He didn’t see Rebecca at the table, so he asked Kathy where she went.“Madam Rebecca alread

“What do you say, my dear brother-in-law?” Shawn showered a pleasant smile as if nothing bad had happened between him and Benjamin only a minute or two ago. Benjamin had seen a lot in his life leading up to this moment, but this professional businessman still left Benjamin in a bit of an awe.He had seen chameleons blending with their surroundings, but Shawn seemed a lot more dangerous than chameleons could ever be. A man who could portray both a sharp and a soft smile at the same time. He was just a scary man to sit next to.However, Benjamin didn’t let Shawn suck him into the flow.“Brother-in-law, the thing is…” Benjamin hesitantly said. “I was saving up the money to buy a necklace for Rebecca.”“Oh…” Shawn was still smiling, but his brows were getting a bit stiff.“I do want to help you, but… I can’t give you more than 10 grand.”“Mm…” Shawn stayed unnaturally silent. The driver could feel the tension rising the moment Benjamin addressed Shawn as brother-in-law, and he was sweatin

Rebecca came home alone. As she was parking the car, Anous acted arrogantly, thinking it was Benjamin in the driver’s seat, and this time received two slaps, one on each cheek.After Rebecca left, he cursed himself. “What rotten luck. Why is this crazy woman parking the car again?” It made no sense, and his stomach made hungry noises as if it didn’t care about his feelings whatsoever.Seeing Rebecca enter the house alone, Selena put aside the book she was reading and stood from the sofa elegantly. “Where’s your disrespectful husband, my little darling?”“How would I know?” Rebecca climbed the stairs without even stopping to talk to her mom.Selena, however, was smiling very brightly. “He must be walking on his way back right now.” She went to the maids and told them to prepare a list of the works that needed to be done, so she could make Benjamin do all that the moment he came home.Selena sat on the sofa and enjoyed her once-a-week cheat drink that was her favorite milkshake with dry

The next morning.Oliver and Devon returned to the Sterling villa in a taxi. When the other butlers asked them where they went, Oliver told them he took Devon to a clinic, and Devon also acted like he couldn’t walk properly. Nobody doubted them as they weren’t known for skipping work.They went to the butlers' dorms and sat down on their beds. Oliver was rubbing his belly. “We’ve eaten a lot last night, and my stomach is already crying for breakfast.”“You’re still young, that’s why,” Devon lied down comfortably. “I’m not gonna eat anything for today. I never thought I’d spend nearly 10,000 dollars in one night. I wish Sheron was still alive. I would have taken her to a seven-star hotel.”“Hahaha,” Oliver was laughing, but in his mind, he was thinking how to get the card from Devon. He no longer believed that the card was demon-possessed. If only he could get that card, he would just run away from this villa and withdraw enough money so he could settle for his life. “Since you’re rest

Benjamin was weaving through the city streets to deliver the parcels in time. Except for the woman who complained about the prices being too high and wasting his time, his day at work went smoothly. He earned 71 dollars on the day, which was pretty average.He was heading back to Rye's Pizza because it was almost 4:30. However, everyone began looking at the sky as balloons that were stitched together began to rise high not from just one spot but from multiple places in the city.And all these balloons at various places read the same message, making the citizens wonder in awe.Looking at the message, Benjamin bit his lower lip and smiled. “Alfred, you sneaky old bastard.”Somewhere else in the city, Rebecca’s Porsche stopped. She stepped out and peered at the balloon message that read: BENJAMIN FOUND HIS LOVE.She just didn’t know how to take it. Seconds later, she shook his head. “Nah, it can’t be him. There are hundreds if not thousands of Benjamins in the city.” She got back in her

It was Benjamin’s first day as a seven-star deliverer, and Christopher didn’t look like a happy man because he gave negative remarks for Benjamin’s work, but Benjamin still got promoted. How could Christopher have known Alfred was working behind the scenes to give Benjamin the much-deserved promotion? Because he didn’t know, his fat stomach was rotting from negative feelings.The best part, as most would say, about getting promoted into a seven-star deliverer was obviously being gifted a personal vehicle, but some would say that it was the fact that the founder of Rye’s Pizzas himself would directly come in the flesh to give the car keys to the new seven-star deliverer.However, the founder did not come today because of falling sick. So, the car-gifting event was postponed. Benjamin was still driving the company’s old motorcycle to go around and deliver the pizzas in time. The timespan had gone down from thirty to fifteen minutes, so it pushed him into using all his bike-riding skills

As Benjamin was leaving the cultural event, some were talking about his wife.“How old is she? 26? 27 maybe? And she’s from a rich background. I didn’t expect her to give such an inspirational speech. That’s rare.”“Yeah, but since she took 25 grand to come and stay here for two hours, she at least needed to deliver that much.”“She took that much?”“Yeah, we initially wanted to bring a movie star, but they asked 100 grand. We didn’t have the budget, so we had to settle for this rising star of a fashion designer.”“Damn, it’s good to have some fame.”“Yeah, but if it was that easy, everyone would become famous, wouldn’t they? She talked about hard work and hope, but who knows how many dicks she rode and asses she licked to get to that position?”“Not all do such things. She seems genuine.”“Haha, whether she’s as sterling as her family name implies or not, that’s not something we can prove from here.”Benjamin didn’t even look at those men. He just kept walking and walking, not even b

Sterling’s family doctor did the necessary treatment and said, “It’s only a minor fracture, but since it’s at the ankle, don’t try to put that foot on the ground for at least two weeks. If the recovery is fast, you’ll be able to do your regular activities from the fifth week.”“Can’t even put my foot down for two weeks?” Rebecca’s face lost a lot of glow. “What should I do in bed for so long?”The doctor smiled almost hysterically because Benjamin was also standing next to him. “Your ankles are strong for a woman. You might have done some physical training when you were young. Otherwise, this same injury would have forced you to stay on the bed for fifteen to twenty weeks.”“That’s…” Rebecca didn’t know what to say. Even though it was only a fracture that would heal in time, she had never been in this situation, and she looked tense like an anxious little rabbit.The doctor patted Rebecca’s shoulder. “Don’t worry. It’s important to stay positive in these situations so your recovery wi

The next morning.Rebecca came out of her room fast and reached the dorms just to check on Benyamin. She found him brushing his teeth with his finger. And he was using salt.“Don’t you have a brush and toothpaste?” Rebecca quickly asked. “You should have asked me then.”“No, I’m fine with this,” Benyamin replied. “The smell of the chemicals in the toothpaste just makes me feel nauseous, so I’m fine with just this sea salt.”“But… will salt be enough?”“It’s enough,” Benyamin gave a thumbs-up. “In fact, I’m worried about you because you’re using that chemical-ridden toothpaste which dullens your brain.”“If they dullen the brain, then why would they promote toothpastes so much on television?”“They will promote everything that will make them money while keeping the people sick, so that they will not be able to think clearly and would rather depend on the government to think for themselves,” Benyamin smiled.“That’s not funny,” Rebecca hissed. “I have to go and brush my teeth. And I’m f

Later that night.Benjamin was out in the garden, sitting under a tree, doing nothing as hours went by.“He’s been like that since dinner,” Rye was watching him from the first floor’s window. “It’s not good.”“What can I say?” Uzza was feeling heavy-hearted. “It feels like the story of Abel and Cain altogether, though in a different way. The brothers that represent the duality of current man. The devil sure knows how to mock us and make us angry. I’m certain now. It’s his plan. He put the sworn brothers against each other.”“But how did he get Shadow?” Rye frowned. “I don’t sense any demonic energy in him.”“Considering Shadow’s abilities, it’s easy for him to hide the demonic energy,” Uzza opined. “He’s a perfect place for demons to hide, though I don’t know how they got hold of him. He must have been caught by surprise. I just hope that this won’t lead to something disastrous.” She was looking at Benjamin. “The longer this goes, the more likely that someone among those is going to b

Veronica brought Akash with her to dinner. Almost everybody was present at the dinner table after a very long time.New tables were arranged because there were more people now.Veronica could see that Akash was not taking his eyes off Benyamin. “Why are you staring at him nonstop?” she asked in a low voice.“He’s tall, handsome, and so fair. Even his hands are so shiny. How’s that possible for a man?” Akash sounded quite envious. “Men are not supposed to look so good-looking, right?”“Mm…” Veronica looked at Benyamin and felt the same. “He does look like a million bucks, but he doesn’t seem to have much muscle on his body. What’s the point of being tall when you don’t have enough muscle? You only look like you have inadequate genes.”“Not every man can be built heavy like the men in your family.”“Haha, you’re right,” Veronica was proud of her brothers and dad because they were tall and big and good-looking. Their jaws alone would melt the gazes of many women, after all.Rye and Benjam

Benyamin couldn’t go upstairs with Rebecca because he refused to tell Selena what he was doing all these days.Selena wouldn’t have allowed him to go past her unless he gave her proof, so he settled with staying in the dorms for the time being.Rebecca dressed up very nicely and attended dinner. Because Benyamin wasn’t present, she was about to visit the dorms, but Selena told her to sit at the table.Selena sent Delle to go and bring Benyamin, saying sarcastically that he might otherwise get lost.Rebecca sat down and waited patiently. (Why didn’t he just tell her what happened? Things would have been easier if he told her everything. What does he have to hide?)Meanwhile, at the dorms.Benjamin and Rye were both present in the same hall as Shadow. Rye was silent, and Benjamin was doing the talking.“What is your relationship with Rebecca?” he asked Shadow.“Obviously, I’m her husband,” Shadow replied. “Don’t you know that already?”Benjamin frowned. “Stop joking.”“I’m not joking.

Benyamin gave a bouquet to Rebecca, and she gladly accepted it.Rebecca brought Benyamin into the villa while holding his hand, and her eyes were still wet with tears of happiness.Selena, who just happened to be coming downstairs with her handbag, planning to go out to make an important deal, saw Benyamin. The bag in her hand dropped. “Y-You… Why did you come back?”“Mom, is that the question you ask your son-in-law?” Rebecca’s voice was sharp.“He’s been gone for weeks!” Selena’s gaze also turned sharper. “And don’t you remember what he’s done? He sold the villa away to Uzza. Did you already forget that he cheated on all of us? Let go of his hand now! He must have heard of my recent rise and came here to use us! A bastard like him should never even be let close! Kick him out. Now!”Rebecca, however, tightened her grip. “No. If you want him to leave, I’ll leave, too.”Selena’s heart skipped a beat. “What? Have you lost your mind? Just what do you see in this trash that you are willin

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 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
