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

    “Enough,” Rebecca slapped her sister without restraint. “Whoa,” Selena quickly got out of her chair. “What’s the deal, Rebecca? She was only telling the truth!” Rebecca angrily glared at Selena. “I hope you two are not doing this together.” “What?” Selena was bewildered. Veronica, on the other hand, looked hurt. Tears sprang to her eyes. “I came running to tell you what Benjamin did, and in return, you hit me in the face. Thank you. I will remember this gift forever.” She turned around and ran away. Rebecca realized that she might have made a mistake. “Wait, Veronica!” She called, but her sister didn’t stop. “Tch,” Rebecca put her hand on top of her head. “You should go and apologize,” Selena suggested. As far as she remembered, the last time Rebecca hit her sister was when Veronica stole her snacks back in high school and gave it to some guy in Veronica’s class. Veronica also cried then and told Rebecca she’d give her organs for free if Rebecca ever needed them. “Take her shoppi

    “That’s the Supreme Bank’s Black Eagle!” Veronica covered her mouth in shock after seeing the card that Benyamin just pulled out.“Is that card that great?” Lisa asked curiously in a low voice.“You don’t know?” Veronica almost mocked Lisa with her gaze. “Only those who spend more than a million dollars a month are eligible to apply for those cards, but not everyone gets it! If there’s a card that billionaires fight for, it’s that card! The services it offers overshadows every other credit card in existence. It’s definitely the rarest credit card in the world!”“What?” Lisa’s jaw dropped.The total bill was 862,378 dollars. Benyamin tipped 137,622 dollars so the total would add up to 1 million.Lisa fell utterly silent. She had never seen anyone tip such a huge amount. Even her school friends who would exaggerate things only gave a few thousand dollars as tip. She began looking at Benyamin in a totally different light now. And she wasn’t the only one.As they exited the shopping mall

    Once they got out of the car, Benyamin was stretching. Veronica took a full-view of his body. “I didn’t notice it, but he’s got a nice bum,” Veronica whispered to Lisa. “Only now?” Lisa looked down on Veronica. “That’s the first thing I noticed!” “You little perv,” Veronica rapped Lisa’s head with her knuckles. “Aw, stop,” Lisa slapped Veronica’s hand and said, “but seriously, I saw you crushing on him in the shopping mall, too. What’s going on? Did he become your new crush?” “I was just admiring him, you little fool,” Veronica slapped the back of Lisa’s head, which she hated. “Brother Benyamin,” Lisa called out for him, making him turn his head toward her. “My sister says she admires you so much.” Veronica was wide-eyed. “W-When did I say that?” she went back into the car and hid herself, feeling so embarrassed. “I wasn’t the one who said that. It was my sister!” Her voice was loud enough to reach Rebecca. Rebecca’s jaw hung open. “What?” she looked at Benyamin, and he faintly

    “You will do what?” Selena raised her voice against her daughter. “Have you gone insane?” Rebecca, however, didn’t even look at her mother. Her focus was on Remedeus and his drunken father. “Mr. Fabio, right? Are your legs hurting as well?” “Rebecca!” Selena fumed, but Rebecca again didn’t spare a glance at her mother. Fabio, however, quickly nodded like a hungry little hound. If Rebecca were to really massage his legs, forget about his son, Fabio would be the first one to stand in the line! He might even gift her some of his theater sites if she satisfied him. “Alright, but it’ll be 100 million for one session,” Rebecca said, making the father and the son go silent for a moment. The price was so high, all the drunkenness left Fabio’s face. “So that means, you two will be owing me a lot after canceling the debt. So, do you guys have the money? Show me the money first, and then we’ll talk about the massaging.” Fabio was no longer smiling. “Hmph, what an arrogant woman you are. Is t

    “Mom was right,” Rebecca was talking to herself after walking out of Ryan’s room. “You can’t trust anyone when it comes to money.” As she remembered how her own mother had kept Rebecca’s money with her, she smiled rather helplessly.Some of the moneylenders who were playing cards were staring at her without blinking as she passed by. She could see the lust in their eyes, even though some of them were trying to smile politely.“How would these moneylenders have behaved if it was Mom who owed them money and not Dad?” Rebecca didn’t even want to think about it. At the moment, as she felt gazes from every direction, she started feeling insecure for being born as a woman.Rebecca then went to Benyamin’s room. He was resting on his bed, but after he heard the knocking, he rushed to the door and opened it quickly as though he knew she was outside. He welcomed her in with a bright countenance. “Come inside, please.”Rebecca entered his room a little hesitantly. It used to be a guest room in t

    After finishing the phone call with Jane, Rebecca began looking throughout the villa for Benjamin once again, checking every room she could. She didn’t ask anyone if there was Benjamin inside, or if they had seen him. There were 83 moneylenders in total, and they didn’t make it any easier for her to look for Benjamin. One of them even touched her dress and hair; there was a group of them, so Rebecca couldn’t fight back, either.In the end, she went to her young sister who was still busy decorating for the upcoming party. Akash was taking a nap in the background, hugging the suit that Veronica had bought for him.“Veronica, which maid was talking about Benjamin in the morning?” Rebecca straightforwardly asked. “Amber? Kathy? Or was it Delle?”Though Rebecca seemed calm, Veronica could see the suppressed rage in her sister’s eyes. “It’s not their fault, sis. It’s Benjamin’s fault. You should find him first. Let’s go and talk to Brother Louis,” she suggested. “He can help us.”Though Reb

    Rebecca hid away her emotions as she saw George coming up to her.“Rebecca, what are you doing here alone?” George plopped himself next to her. “You don’t mind if I sit here, do you?” he asked her after he had already sat beside her, which she naturally disliked.She was getting up.“Wait,” he grabbed her hand, startling her. A glare from her made him let go of her.“I wanted to share chips and water, that’s all,” George asserted, reaching for her hand once again. “Come on.”Rebecca moved a step away. “I saw you flirting with Delle at the shopping mall. And you were using my brother’s card, too. You thought I wasn’t noticing all that?” her words shook his heart. “If you aren’t going to tell everything to Elizabeth, my mom, and my dad by tomorrow morning, I’ll tell them myself.”George’s face turned pale. “W-Why can’t I be with Delle when you can be Benjamin who’s a lot worse than Delle?”“What did you say?” Rebecca immediately slapped him.George got so angry his chest was moving, but

    Jacob was a big man. His attacks packed a pretty punch, but the Kimmy Brothers also had big frames. They assaulted Jacob together by dealing a few quick punches, then lifted him up by his shoulders and smashed him down on the bed.If not for the memory foam and metal coils in the mattress cushioning the fall, Jacob would have gotten injured, and even the bed might have broken.“Dad!” Veronica yelled in worry, but seeing her father touch his neck and cry in pain, she was enraged. She jumped at Elder Kimmy, but he easily grabbed her arms. She kicked him in the nuts, making him wince in pain.“You bitch!” Younger Kimmy slapped Veronica so hard so his face turned a thousand times uglier.“You bastards!” Selena screamed. “Get out of here!”However, the Younger Kimmy snickered. She found her suffering amusing. “Hehe, give us the money. That’s all we’ve been asking.”Just then, Rebecca managed to push her way through the guys blocking the way to that room because she had a gun in her hand. S

    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

    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.

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
