Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 489
Rebecca and Veronica were sleeping in the same room that morning.“How did you even meet Benjamin? You said it happened at a bar, but you didn’t give me the details,” Veronica said. She was purposely asking about Benjamin so that her sister will think back on those times and move on. ‘I mean, you’re the type who says that even chatting for someone a bit long at work is unprofessional. And you’re definitely not the type to go to a bar, so it’s really surprising and puzzling that you met him at a bar.”“Well, something about him was different. I wasn’t expecting to meet anybody that night, to be honest, but then when I saw him, something changed. I won’t call it an instant connection, but he drew me in, and after we sat at the same table, he began to crack simple jokes, and he didn’t praise my beauty too much like most other men do,” Rebecca said, smiling. “But he did ask me if I was married and not if I had a boyfriend or not. It seemed like his intentions were pure and straightforward

Dahlia overcame her punishment successfully on the third day, but her gut and throat were on fire right now. She was now allowed to heal herself, but she didn’t. Because she was so angry at Shadow she didn’t want to heal her problems and then forget to punish him properly.After all, there was a rule in Sciocidad, to never go to sleep with the flames of anger burning in your heart. Anger between fellow clansmen at the least must be resolved on that day itself. This was why Dahlia was allowed to visit Shadow who was not quite giving his best to understand the book he was given.An elder tagged alongside her so she wouldn’t do anything foolish like fighting Shadow.Currently, Shadow was eating grapes while reading a book in the warm candlelight that gave off an earthy and sweet aroma like honey because the candle was made from beeswax.Seeing Dahlia’s reddened eyes as she entered the room, Shadow’s spine tingled more than a bit. He was eating grapes, but he stopped doing that now. He co

“Greens are bad for health?” a journalist was interviewing Selena in the garden of Sterling villa. “I think many people would disagree with you, ma’am.”“You didn’t get my words correctly,” Selena explained herself while touring the garden. “Just like how certain parts of the vegetables should be thrown away before cooking, there are also methods we need to follow to eat these greens to keep ourselves healthy. For instance, take these eggplants or these spinach leaves for example,” she showed those that were growing in the garden. “These things are high in oxalate content, so they are better eaten cooked than raw. You can make smoothies out of raw cilantro but not out of raw spinach because, like I said, you need to avoid eating high oxalate veggies raw, or you’ll get sore joints or kidney stones without even knowing why. If you really prefer to eat these acidic veggies raw, then you should consume calcium along with them, so that calcium binds with the acid and stops them from crysta

Selena’s interviews turned out to be a blessing for her fans, as they began to eat food that needs to be eaten either raw or cooked to get the most nutrients out of them.Many people began to drink raw milk from family farms and avoided pasteurized milk. Even the people that lived in rural regions who knew of Selena told that they began to wash their foods with baking soda before eating or cooking, thanks to her. They affirmed that Selena was correct about a lot of things such as picking the right mineral salt and avoiding processed oils, and that they would always cook their mushrooms to properly benefit from them. On top of that, they warned that if they ever saw Andrew, they would make him eat mushrooms raw and unwashed.Selena’s fame began to soar day by day and hour by hour, whereas Andrew Sehla was facing greater problems and issues from many directions.Normally, Andrew was very hard to reach for the reporters. He would have a thick layer of fog protecting him in the form of bo

Rebecca put on shoes and looked at the sticker she stuck to the mirror. The words ‘if you’re feeling depressed, then exercise,’ were written on that note. It was something she had taken from her mother’s health book many years ago.Rebecca had always kept herself in shape because of her healthy diet as well as exercising enough every week whenever she got time. Once she crossed twenty years of age, she stopped exercising too much to the point of putting her body under stress. For instance, she used to ride the spin-bike for ten to fifteen miles per day when she was a teenager. This would put a lot of stress on her knees, but as she entered her twenties, she cut that workout load so that she would never suffer from exertion. After all, she needed to focus on her designer’s career, so the last thing she wanted was to feel tired after cycling or jogging herself to the bone.However, after marriage, she stopped jogging or cycling altogether for more than one reason. Benjamin also had to d

“Money, jewelry, diamonds,” Ian uttered in an exaggerated tone. “Whatever you want… I’ll bring them to you. All you need to do is to make me feel good… just like how you bought a jacket and a pair of gloves to one of our classmates because she was low on money. That girl later went on to become the topper of our class and is now working as a top designer just like you. But I recently managed to get her into my bed. The only girl left in our class that I still haven’t tasted is you and you only, Rebecca Sterling. Don’t make a man wait for this long, or he’ll go crazy.”Ian’s words made her remember her classmate Debby. Back in college days, Debby was poor and she didn’t have the money to buy gloves much less a coat. Seeing her shivering in the cold one morning, Rebecca bought her gloves and a jacket. She never told anybody that, so how did Ian know about it? Did he really sleep with Debby? Rebecca didn’t like that. Even though she and Debby were more rivals than friends now, she didn’t

There was no one else in sight except for Rebecca on that road. Ian was grinning as the car accelerated and was about to hit Rebecca. But suddenly, something happened, and he couldn’t see Rebecca in front of the car anymore. He didn’t feel like he hit her, either.He stopped the car and looked back. She was nowhere to be seen. “What the hell?” He stepped out and looked under the car just to make sure she wasn’t there. He put his hands on his head, unable to process what just happened.In the alley nearby.Louis put Rebecca down. “That was really close. If I hadn’t stepped in, you would be dead by now.”Rebecca was in shock. She couldn’t believe that Ian tried to hit her with the car. She knew he was trash, but not to this extent.“You stay here. I’ll deal with that guy,” Louis said, bringing his claws out.Rebecca grabbed his hand. “He’s drunk. That’s why he…”Louis coldly glanced at her. “You really think that’s the case? To my eyes, he’s pretty sane, Rebecca.” He shook his hand out

Jerome was the name of the scar-faced man who was tasked with observing every movement of the Sterling family. He had a little group with him, and together they had been surveilling the Sterling family members using any means possible.Jerome was no ordinary guy. Having worked in an intelligence agency with an impeccable record, he then quit work so he could earn more money using his knowledge. Since then, he was wanted by many agencies around the world. Some countries offered as much as 800,000 dollars for his head, and 1 million dollars if he was captured alive.Jerome now walked into a group of four young black men who were smoking weed in plain sight. They didn’t like his presence rubbing on them, especially how he kept licking on the ice cream with a straight face.“Old pants, why don’t you go and suck on that cream somewhere else?” one of the guys said.“Yeah, get your stinky ass out of here,” another guy blurted. They were all aged around twenty.Jerome took out a bundle of cas

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

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
