Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 242
In Selena’s room.Selena had just come to her room, and she was trying to get some sleep before dinner-time, but she was struggling because her nose wasn’t healed yet, and she was finding it hard to breathe, especially when lying down on the bed. Whenever she didn’t get sleep, she would generally read a book until she slipped into asleep, but tonight, she was just talking to herself.“The nose surgery will be perfect, I’m sure, and it’ll look more beautiful than before,” Selena briefly remembered how she was born with a slightly upturned nose, and her childhood friends used to call her Pug all the time, even though she was the class representative. They used to poke her with the pencils from back benches, steal her items, and mistreat her a lot in many different ways. One day, she fought with the entire class during recess, and she ended up smashing a girl’s face into the window and breaking her nose. Her friend later got their nose repaired, and that made Selena want to change the wa

Selena was sleeping, and someone patted her hard and fast. Multiple times. She woke up in startlement, only to see her daughter and her son-in-law standing behind her, wearing hard faces. “Rebecca?”“Why did you kill him?” Rebecca straightforwardly asked.“Kill whom?” Selena asked back just as fast.“Devon. Why did you get him beaten to death?” Rebecca demanded an answer right in front of Benjamin, which Selena didn’t like and made her face scrunch.“Nonsense. Devon left his job long ago,” Selena stated confidently. “It’s been a while since I last saw him.”Rebecca took Benjamin’s mobile and showed her mom the camera recording from the villa’s footage. It showed Devon getting beat up by the bodyguards.Selena frowned, but she quickly said, “I can’t even see his face clearly, but even if it’s Devon, and he got beaten to death by the bodyguards, why are you upset about it? He’s just a useless old guy who has become a slave to his habits.”Rebecca ground her teeth. She wanted to throw th

Only Rebecca, Benjamin, and Delle didn’t eat dinner because of the same reason: Devon’s death. Delle had a good relationship with Devon, so her conscience didn’t let her eat that night, either.Delle was taking care of Jacob until Selena entered the room and told her to leave.Selena closed the door and sat next to Jacob’s bed.A minute passed silently.“How are your eyes?” asked Jacob, wearing a poker face.Selena sucked in a breath through the gap between her teeth. “You must be feeling quite happy inside.”“She’s your daughter first,” Jacob was able to slightly move his arms and legs now. A good night’s sleep would be enough for him to get up, he thought. “But throwing orange juice in the eyes? Just what did you do to piss her off that much?”She harrumphed. “You already know everything, yet you ask me like an innocent child.”“Well, you took her hard-earned money and kept it with you,” Jacob frankly said. “She didn’t do anything at that time because she’s not money-minded, but she

The three bodyguards clobbered Benjamin with metal rods until he wasn’t moving and was bleeding everywhere.One of them took out a gun and was fixing a silencer, but another guy stopped him and said, “We don’t want to leave any clues that might lead back to us. Let’s just bury him like this, and he’ll die before we completely bury this hole.”“That way, it looks more like someone from the household beat him up… in case someone finds his body, huh. I like it.” He put the gun away. Instead of dragging Benjamin’s body, two of them picked him up and took him to the pit while the third guy was wiping the traces of blood off the ground. They were quite thorough with everything as if they had prior experience.They tied up Benjamin’s hands and feet before tossing him in the ten-feet deep pit. All eight of them worked together to fill the grave and then cover it up with natural grass mats. They finished everything in under twenty minutes. After sprinkling some salt, pepper, and chili powder a

The next morning.Delle, for the first time in a long while, didn’t wake up when the alarm had rung. Kathy had to come and wake her up. Finding Delle naked was surely a surprise for Kathy, but she didn’t think Delle had sex with someone. That didn’t even cross her mind.“Get ready quickly. We might receive some guests today that’ll stay until the party finishes,” Kathy told her and left.Delle didn’t know when George had left, but thinking about last night, she smiled within herself. “I’ll prepare a special breakfast for you, George,” she thought. “It’d be a token of love, I guess?”Delle had never opened herself up in recent times because of her checkered past.“But first, I should take care of Madam Selena,” Delle dressed up quickly and put on minimal make-up before rushing to the kitchen. She made black coffee and took it to Selena’s room. The door was ajar, so she let herself in. She put the coffee plate on the lamp desk and opened the curtains. The sunrays refracted through the g

In the governor’s office.Langdon Campbell, the guy with a net worth over 5 billion dollars, was standing like a servant in front of Jeff Druze, the current president of the country. The world-renowned pharmacist, Denise Egor was also there. She was sipping what looked like blood mixed with wine.Langdon’s heart was beating loudly for being in the presence of these two. After all, they had the power and influence to tear his empire apart if they wanted.“You don’t need to get anxious, Mr. Langdon,” Denise comfortably spoke. “We are not going to ask you anything about your deals with the mafia, or about releasing criminals as you want, or even about the international flower project you got going for yourself. We know you traffic drugs, women, and children, and that your real net worth is over 60 billion dollars, but we don’t give a shit about all that right now. We only came here secretly because of the need of the hour. Tomorrow, you’re going to take Mr. Jeff with you to the night par

In the Pure Waters bar.Blackbear and Dewar were sitting before Rodnie in one of the private rooms on the first floor. There were women in bikinis on either side of Blackbear and Dewar, pressing and rubbing their arms, chest, and thighs with their arms as well as bodies.“We didn’t come here for this, Brother Rodnie,” Blackbear spoke, pushing the women aside.Dewar, however, seemed like he wanted the women to keep doing whatever they were doing.Rodnie gestured to the women to leave, and they skipped away on their toes.“I know why you came here, Blackbear,” Rodnie lit up his large cigar. “But I’m not going to join hands with the underworld again. I’ve long retired from that life. I do secret bettings, but that’s in order to satisfy some of my old friends’ requests and at the same time receive their help if necessary.”Blackbear kept staring at Rodnie, almost in a threatening manner. “You’ve lived twice as I did, so I don’t need to tell you what happens if you piss Boss Butcher off.”

In the landscaped front yard of the villa, Selena was talking with ten new bodyguards she had hired from a new security company. These guys were almost as big as the previous security unit, so she picked them from their appearances alone, without doing much of a background check because of the urgent need.“You’ll have a lot of work to do these coming three days, but your main duty stays the same. It is to keep everyone from my family safe, understand?”“Yes, ma’am.”“Now, go and help the other workers arrange for the event,” she ordered, and they obeyed.Even though they were bodyguards, and they didn’t need to do such labor, they still lowered their backs for the money Selena would be paying them.Selena went up to her daughters who were sitting together in chairs on the balcony, overseeing how the work was going.“Neither of you have eaten anything since morning, right?” she asked with care in her voice.“Actually I ate two bananas,” Veronica responded, making her mother sit in 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
