Jane put the magazine aside and spared Rebecca a stern look, gently rubbing her abdomen in the process. “I’m pregnant, Rebecca. And… Benjamin is the dad.”Rebecca froze. Her bright little inner world she had recently built owing to Benjamin now felt like it was crumbling down. But then she blurted. “A-Are you saying it’s been more than three months since you two had… met? I don’t believe it.”“Whether you believe it or not, that’s the truth,” Jane’s expression stayed the same. She kept rubbing her abdomen in neat circles. “Benjamin is the father of the baby in my belly.”“Nonsense!” Rebecca grew so angry she spat some saliva out.“No. It makes perfect sense if you think about it,” Jane added. “Do you remember the time you first introduced Benjamin to me in a car? We actually met the very next day without you knowing, and then we… did that thing.”“Bullshit!” Rebecca barked. “I’ll bring Benjamin here right now and deal with you then!” she hastily left the room.Jane scratched her abdom

Before she realized, Kathy ended up screaming, which she wished she hadn’t.“Sir Ryan, you should hide somewhere,” Kathy warned him before rushing into the building. She was planning to escape from the backside without informing the maids or Louis and his family. There were the hired men working with Akash and Veronica on the lawn, decorating for the upcoming party. They should buy her enough time, she thought.Meanwhile, Veronica and Akash just stood there in shock while the other workers around them started running already.“Don’t let anyone escape!” Dewar roared. “Kill them all.”His words sent chills down Akash’s spine, and he found himself shivering, but Veronica grabbed a couple of metal rods and gave him one.“Y-You want to fight that many?” Akash was shocked. “Are you crazy?”“You got a better solution?”“Let’s run!” Akash grabbed her hand. “If we can jump over the wall, we might just—”Veronica thrust the metal rod in his face, bruising his nose.“What the hell was that for?”

In the Gospel Hospital.Benjamin was sitting on a bench and holding himself back from punching things around him.The receptionist had been watching him. Her woman’s intuition told her this was the right time to go and ease him up and gain some points in his heart. There was no one else currently in the hall, so she grabbed her purse, took her makeup kit out, quickly applied some cream and checked herself in a hand mirror. “Alright. He’s married to someone else, but if I succeed, he’ll be mine. You can do this.” She stood and walked toward him with courage.Rebecca appeared out of nowhere and sat next to him and then looked at the receptionist who suddenly started checking out the benches and wiped the dust off of them before returning to her seat.“What did she say?” Benjamin asked in an annoyed voice.“Jane is sometimes crazy, but she’s not a bad woman,” Rebecca replied.“Huh?” Benjamin couldn’t believe what Rebecca was saying. “She said I was the father to her child. You want me to

“Mr. Benyamin is new to the city, so he might get lost on his way back,” Selena stated. “So give him company. Besides, we’re here to take care of the injured. There’s nothing you can do here.”Selena wasn’t wrong, so Rebecca ended up nodding. “Fine, but I didn’t bring a car. I don’t think Mr. Benyamin brought his car, either, since we both came in a Land Rover, which Benjamin probably took.”“Why did you let him take your car?” Elizabeth fumed at Benjamin.“Well, he was going to a friend’s marriage.”“Oh, so he’s going to show off with your Porsche.”“It’s a Land Rover, actually. Your son took my Porsche and didn’t return it yet.”“U-Uh, still, a Land Rover is a big deal for trash like Benjamin,” Elizabeth snorted, trying to divert the topic from her son. “I’m sure he’ll keep bragging about this car throughout the time he spends at his friend’s wedding party.”Rebecca stayed silent. She didn’t want to tell Elizabeth that Benjamin bought the car for her as she was afraid of Elizabeth,

When the red-haired woman pulled her hair over her ear, Steve as well as Jane felt their hearts skipping. She briefly glanced in their direction, and her striking eyes set Steve’s soul on fire. As if magic had captured his heart, he couldn’t look away even though he wanted to. Jane felt the same way. As if bound by some supernatural force, she found herself drooling at the red-haired woman’s beauty.When the red-haired woman shifted her focus back to Benjamin, they breathed better, though Jane’s heart still ached for Rebecca.“Whew…” Steve found himself sweating. “This must be what they call exotic beauty. She looks like she’s from another world.”“What?” Jane squinted her eyes. “You mean she’s better-looking than I am?”Steve’s shoulders jerked. “O-Of course not. You’re ten times prettier than her.” Just then, he noticed the drool on her face. “Wait, why are you drooling?”“W-What?” Jane quickly wiped her mouth. “I was drooling because of the sandwich, you idiot!” she threw a mild pu

Rebecca took the shortest route to the Bergh restaurant, a place which she hadn’t even visited once before. Or maybe she did, but she didn’t remember.Either way, she couldn’t sit still as she drove her mother’s silver Audi S6. Selena bought the car the day after Jacob auctioned the villa, probably to piss him off. If not, to at least irritate him by reminding how she could buy whatever she wanted because she still had hundreds of millions sitting in her bank account.Even though Jacob and Shawn told Selena numerous times to invest her money somewhere else, Selena was too cautious of a woman to believe private companies. She was happy with earning fixed deposit interests or through bonds bought in reliable banks.Rebecca was driving in this car for the first time, but she wasn’t in the mood to enjoy this luxurious car.Her whole concentration was on what might be happening at the Bergh restaurant, so much so she even forgot to concentrate on the road ahead of her. She subconsciously d

Benjamin skated through the city streets and was having fun, but his thoughts were still on what he should name the company he wanted to start with Rebecca. “I think R&B would be good. I’ll ask her opinion first.”As he was passing by a school, he saw a familiar person. The old guard at the main gate was picking up a cigarette off the ground. “Damn these kids. I told a few of them to not smoke inside the school, so they’re leaving cigarette butts right where I sit.” He shook his head and was about to sit back in the shade, but Benjamin swiftly came to a stop before him. He recognized Benjamin.“Devon… what are you doing here?” Benjamin asked. “I made a fixed deposit for you, and even gave your son some money. So why are you here, working as a watchman?”Devon, the old butler who had worked in the Sterling villa for decades, lowered his head in shame. “They took the money from me, Benjamin, and kicked me out.”Benjamin had already expected it, but still, hearing it from Devon’s mouth

Steve hoped Donovan didn’t leave the apartment yet, even though he had warned both Donovan and Jasmine to leave within 24 hours. However, when he went to their room, it was still locked from the inside. He kicked the door open. He and Jane then entered the room together. Both Donovan and Jasmine were having sex in the bedroom, even though they were sick with chickenpox.While Jane felt disgusted by it, Steve grabbed the broom and started beating the crap out of Donovan, not even giving him any time to talk. Donovan caught the broomstick at one point and tried to gain the upperhand, but then Steve took his gun out.“You’re not gonna shoot me,” Donovan confidently said, swinging the broom at Steve, but the bullet hit Donovan’s arm first.Jasmine started screaming, still in bed and having covered her nakedness with the blanket and pillow.Donovan jumped on both feet and cringed in pain. Steve put the gun away and implemented his shadow-boxing routine on Donovan until he went down on the

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

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
