Shawn had been sitting on a golf court for over two hours, but he patiently waited. A Ferrari entered his view, and then gradually the noise of its engine. He stood and didn’t move even though the vehicle came straight at him. At the last second, the vehicle arched around him and stopped fast, lifting up grass and dirt. A handsome hunk stepped out. He was almost as tall as Shawn and just as masculine. He was wearing what might seem like a casual white T-shirt and blue jeans, but these were the same clothes worn by his favorite movie stars, which he later acquired for free. His shoes had gold linings, and so hid the tip of his wallet showing through the backpocket. “Did I make you wait for too long?” he asked. “Any longer, and I might have come looking for you,” Shawn said with a poker face. “Haha,” he and Shawn then laughed and shook each other’s hands. They sat down at a table with an umbrella attached on top. He took out two Mayan Sicars from the tobacco box and gave one to Shaw
Anous’ wife told him to quit the job. However, not wanting to lose his primary sponsor, he was thinking of returning to work in a few days even though he suffered from a heart attack.“Benjamin told my wife that I should bring his car?” Anous’ frowned a little bit. “So he isn't as dumb as I thought. But I have Madam Elizabeth on my side. I have nothing to fear even if the truth gets known.”At that moment, Alfred entered the room with a basket full of fruits and a bouquet. “You seem to be doing great, Mr. Anus.”“I don’t know who you are, mister, but my name isn’t Anus. It’s Anous. U is silent.”“Ah, is it?” Alfred sat down and began crunching on one of the apples from the basket, puzzling Anous, who thought the fruits were brought for him.“Who are you, sir? What do you want?” Anous asked. His wife or children weren't in the room.“I just came to see a patient in the room next to you,” Alfred replied, “so I thought I’d meet you as well.”“Oh, but… do I know you?”“No, you don’t,” Alf
Instead of parking the car, Oliver was taking a tour throughout the garden in the bugatti. “Haha, this is freaking awesome!” he felt so thrilled. “If I can bust out through a gate, it’ll be like playing GTA in real life!”However, his excitement was cut short by Lisa and Roshan who wanted to drive the black-and-orange Bugatti Chiron for themselves.Oliver could only cry on the inside as he got out of the car with a smile on his face.Lisa wanted to sit in the driver’s seat, but Roshan pulled her back by her hair and sat in the driver’s seat first. She yelled at him, telling him to get out, but he shut the door and went for a ride in the super sports car. “Huhoo… this engine speaks speed! The turbochargers really work!” He recklessly drove the car around the garden.Vlad and Mercie were watching from the balcony while licking on lollipops with strawberry flavors, and while putting on a poker face, they bet on whether Roshan would hit the car to a tree or not.Meanwhile, Kathy knocked t
When Selena returned home, Lisa and Roshan made a mountain out of the molehill regarding what Benjamin had done to them. They also repeatedly told Veronica and the maids, and they waited till midnight and told Shawn when he came home. And they took Shawn to Rebecca’s room.“Open the door,” Shawn knocked and said a few times, but there was no response.“He locked the door after having dinner,” Lisa said. “He didn’t open it when Grandma told him to!”“What?” Shawn grew angry. “Since when did he grow so arrogant?” he banged the door harder with his hand. Roshan also joined his father and banged the door. The maids and the butlers were watching silently from the side. “Rebecca? What are you doing? At least say something. Do you want me to break the door or what?”Stil, there was no response.Inside the room, Benjamin was reading one of his wife’s fashion magazines. Rebecca was peacefully sleeping, having plugged her ears with noise cancellation earbuds.Though Benjamin sat calmly on the b
A blue bugatti went past Benjamin as he kept staring at the mobile screen. “2.25 million dollar purchase?” his head felt like it grew heavy. “Who the hell is using the card?” he dialed Alfred. “I just got the message. Someone made a 2.25 million dollar purchase using the platinum card you tried to give me. Do you know who it is?”“I know, Master.”“Who is it?”“It’s someone from the Sterling villa,” Alfred didn’t reveal the name on purpose.“What?” Benjamin was startled. His in-laws’ faces popped up in his mind, but then he mainly doubted Elizabeth and Veronica as only those two didn’t have jobs. He even thought of Lisa or Roshan having it, but he didn’t even think of the possibility of the maids or the butlers using the card. “Who is it?” his voice grew deep.“I’m sorry, but you need to find that out by yourself, Master,” Alfred demanded. “Be responsible for your money.” Saying that he ended the call.Benjamin got lost in thought for a few minutes while sitting on the bike at the sid
Oliver parked his car at a supermarket close to the Sterling villa. He paid the guard a thousand dollars and told him to keep the car safe, and the guard gladly obliged. Oliver bought products worth eight thousand dollars from the supermarket, three-fourth of which went for buying various kinds of quality meat.He returned to the villa and began cooking the kobe beef first. “I’ve tried kobe burgers before, but I never thought I’d eat full-blown kobe dinner. Hahaha.”As he was very much involved in cooking, Devon sneaked up on him and struck his head with a wooden stick. Oliver fell unconscious before he could even turn to look who hit him. Devon took the platinum card from him and ran away.The smell of the kobe beef attracted Vlad and Mercie to the kitchen. They went upstairs and called their mother. Bella came to the kitchen and cooked kobe curry, all the while Oliver was lying unconscious on the floor. Vlad ate the curry while sitting on Oliver’s body, and they really liked it.Aft
During breakfast, Benjamin apologized to Lisa and Roshan in front of everyone, except Jacob who was still out on his work.“I’m sorry. I should have never directed my anger toward you two,” Benjamin lowered his head before Lisa and Roshan, and their egos were satisfied.Nolan and Dorothy knew that the reason the kids caught cold was because they ate too many sweets the other night. It was Dorothy who bought the sweets, so they could only snicker, looking at the pathetic expression Benjamin was making.“Such a simple sorry isn’t enough,” Shawn said. “You will be driving my kids to school until Anous returns. Let this experience teach you your place.”“T-That’s…” Benjamin looked at Rebecca, as though asking her to fight for him, but she just pursed her lips together.Lisa and Roshan giggled without any concern.“How was the series?” Selena asked her daughter. Lost Love was a romantic comedy drama from over twenty years ago, in which she was one of the main leads.“I finished season 1. Y
Benjamin walked out of the church with a slightly less burdened heart than before. As he drove to the Rye’s Pizzas, he noticed Devon entering a casino.“Why’s he going in there?” Benjamin wondered but didn’t bother too much as he was already tight on time.His first order today was into a bad neighborhood where even the police would think twice before entering. There was little to no traffic in the neighborhood. He reached the destination, an old house that wasn’t being properly cared for. There was a dog tied to a tree in the garden, and it looked malnourished. The rope around its neck had left a deep scar in the flesh, which had begun to rot.Seeing Benjamin, the dog began barking with the little strength it got. Benjamin ignored the dog and reached the front door. The was no door bell, so he knocked on the door three times.The door opened and Blackbear was standing on the other side of the doorframe, wearing a pleasant smile on his face.“Sir, your delivery,” Benjamin gave the thr
“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
