Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 511
Veronica joined Rebecca during lunch, but she was still angry because of what Rebecca had said the other day, so she didn’t talk with her.However, Rebecca herself started the conversation. “I get that you want to help me, Veronica, but I’m not stressed to the point I don’t know what I’m doing. To me, Benjamin can’t be replaced by anyone. He wasn’t just a handsome man. He was the sweetest soul I’ve ever met. His passing away left a gaping hole in my heart. And the rest of it is in a million pieces. The way he died makes no sense, and it hurts me even more. I wish I was able to do something. I wish I had done some things sooner. I’m fighting with my own guilt right now. It won’t go away just because I date some new guy. I don’t want my pain to go away like that, either.”“...So you want to keep hurting like this?” Veronica asked. “Do you think that makes sense? Do you remember this? Not long ago, during one of the nights, I was sleeping in your room. You woke up at 2 AM and started pr

It wasn’t just Denise but Zakaria and Cranston also froze completely after Emmanuel and Jezz Bell slightly released their aura.(I heard recently that these two were artificially created purebloods…) Denise frowned. (But the energy they’re giving off is no joke. It’s as if they wouldn’t lose to Vril, the king of Shambol. There’s no way I can fight even one of them, let alone two.)“You are the infamous pharmacist, Dust Egor,” Emmanuel purposely teased her, “or was it Dung Egor? Whatever it is, you sure are stupid for thinking you can get away with it after stealing the mind cube.”Denise frowned. (Shit. Are they here for the mind cube? I’m sure nobody saw when I stole it. I erased all the tracks, too. How the hell did they know?)“I can hear the gears in your head turning, bitch,” Jezz Bell’s voice was cold. “Don’t think of anything funny, and tell us where you hid it.”“I-I’ll take you to where it is,” Denise said. She didn’t want them to know that the Mind Cube was with the king of

Zakaria wanted to kill both Louis and Bella, but they were able to hold their ground against him.“Let’s go,” Cranston said and left the scene.“Tsk, consider yourselves lucky, crooks,” Zakaria blurted before turning into a blur and vanishing from their sight.Louis looked at Bella, whose hand was darkened because of blocking Zakaria’s technique. “He must have coated his nails with some kind of poison, that bastard.” Judging by how it managed to paralyze Bella’s arm, it was no ordinary poison. “We were able to stop him from stealing our life span, but if those guys come again, we’ll be doomed.”“I think one of us should take Rebecca to a safer place, somewhere no one can follow us,” Bella suggested.“Why would Rebecca come with me?” Louis asked.“She won’t. That’s why you should take her when she’s unconscious,” Bella said.“Let’s say I took her away from here, and those three vampires returned to this villa,” Louis said. “What then? In the best case scenario, they’re going to take yo

A few hours later.Night has fallen. Akash was sitting outside the room Veronica was in because he was not being let inside. He looked very dull because his parents were kidnapped, and his wife had fallen sick.“The doctor who said he’d come in the evening hasn’t come yet,” Elizabeth frustratedly said. “He must have been threatened by Andrew. Otherwise, he would have come.” While the others were silent, she was the only one yelling in the room.Selena, on the other hand, called Brian and asked him to send a trustworthy doctor.Brian said he would.Lisa and Roshan were watching television in the hall. Even though they didn’t put loud volume, Elizabeth scolded them and told them to go to their rooms. And they did.About an hour later.A new doctor came to the sterling villa. Brian personally brought him. Louis was standing at the gate. After Brian and the doctor went inside, Bella was coming out in a car, with her children unconscious in the back.She stopped at the gate and said, “You

Rebecca was sitting by Veronica’s side. She noticed that the swelling around her right eye darkened as if blood clotted there. Selena put her hand on Rebecca’s shoulder. “She’s going to be fine.” “What happened to her eye, Mom?” Rebecca asked. “It looks like someone punched her, but I know she didn’t get punched because I was with her all the time.” “Didn’t the doctor say that stress can sometimes do that?” Selena said. “That doctor didn’t come again, did he? How can we trust his words?” “You’re right. That’s why I called for a different doctor.” “Can we trust him?” “I think so.” Just then, Brian and the new doctor enter the room, as guided by the maid Amber. The doctor was a relative of Brian, but he looked more like a gangster than a doctor because his biceps would be at least 25 inches thick. And he was as tall as Shawn, so he looked like a standing rhinoceros. “My name is Bunny,” the doctor shook his hand with Selena, but then he wasn’t letting go of her hand and kept sha

Brian didn’t leave with Bunny but came back and talked to Selena in front of Rebecca. “It’s going to be fine. She’s going to wake up soon, I promise. Doctor Bunny is a highly capable individual, so I’m confident that he’ll cure your daughter’s condition.”“Thanks for bringing him, but I still find it difficult to believe that my daughter has been poisoned by parasites,” Selena pitifully said. “She’s someone who doesn’t even walk barefooted on the ground. So, it’s really baffling that she’s got parasites in her.”Brian’s gaze soon shifted to Rebecca who was gently rubbing her sister’s palm. He liked what he saw. “All of you are wishing for her recovery, so I’m sure your good wishes will come true.”“I hope so.”Meanwhile, Bella stopped by a gas station to completely fill the tank. Her left hand that was poisoned was still hurting.As she was filling, a couple of white vans suddenly entered the gas station. The doors opened, and half a dozen men stepped out.Bella immediately raised the

“You idiots!” Samuel Sehla shouted through the phone. “What do you mean you failed to capture her? I want her brought over to me before the sun shines, or I’m going to make you pay me ten times the advance I paid you!”“W-We’ll get her this time for sure, sir,” a somewhat tense voice spoke from the other side.“You better,” Samuel hissed and then cut the call. “Bunch of fools. They can’t even capture one woman, and they call themselves a gang.”“Calm down, darling,” Samuel’s girlfriend, Inyana, gently massaged his shoulders from behind. “Anger will only drain your energy quickly and doesn’t help with achieving your goal.”Samuel sighed. “Yeah. You’re right.” He lifted his head, and she kissed him on the lips. “Now, my anger has completely faded away.”“Haha,” Inyana chuckled a little. “They don’t know who I am, so why don’t I enter the Sterling villa and bring them out one by one to you?”Samuel was very surprised to hear that. “B-But, if they realize what’s going on, you will be in

“Joke?” Rebecca’s expression turned slightly cold. She was already in a bad mood because of what happened to her sister. If not for the fact that it was Brian who brought the doctor, Rebecca would have lashed out at him by now. “Mr. Brian… Do you know what’s the most difficult thing to achieve for any artist?”“Um, I’m not an artist, so I’m not sure what it is,” Brian replied.“It is to replicate what you see in reality or in imagination, and take it to perfection,” Rebecca said. “It applies to businessmen or anybody for that matter because we are all artists in our respective professions. The beauty of the world, or the complexity of our lives cannot be fully captured in mere pictures or books. But we still do our best to bring our artwork to life just like how you do your best to satisfy customers and at the same time earn as much profit as you can through your businesses.” She pointed her thumb back at the image of hers. “This art you see is the result of an honest replication of r

George came to Rebecca who was sitting in front of a piano she hadn’t played in a long time.“Will you help me with learning the piano?” George asked her politely.“I myself am relearning it, so, no,” Rebecca replied, “uncle.”George laughed. “I’m your brother-in-law, not your uncle.”“Both are fitting,” she retorted, “in this case.”George found it embarrassing and frustrating that she wasn’t giving him any face even though he was just trying to be friendly, albeit with hidden intentions. “Do you know what happened to your sister’s husband?”“Akash left, it seems,” Rebecca said.“Yeah. But the shocking thing is that Veronica isn’t crying,” George opined. “Even enemies will shed tears as they’re parting, but… how come your sister isn’t shedding a tear? I didn’t know her heart was so cold.”“It is good that she’s not faking her crying like some others do,” Rebecca replied, startling George.“I-Is that what you think? Now that you put it that way, I don’t disagree.”Just then, Fiona arr

“Haha, did Veronica’s husband really go back to his country?” Fiona laughed excitedly as she privately talked with her daughter Riley in a guest room. “I didn’t think things would happen so smoothly. Now, we just need to introduce one of our rich allies to Veronica, and the rest will take care of itself. I should also deal with Rebecca’s husband, too.”“Mom, I need to tell you something,” Riley said.“Go on,” Fiona was eating sweet bread which Delle had made.“I…” Riley hesitantly said. “I think I’m in love with Benjamin.”Fiona choked on her bread.Riley quickly gave water.It was only after drinking the water, Fiona was able to breathe again. She took a few deep breaths and looked at her daughter in shock. “Are you fucking kidding me? You have a wedding soon, and you’re saying you fell in love with Rebecca’s husband? A pizza-delivery guy?”“No, mom. Rebecca’s husband is Benyamin, the guy with the wolf haircut, but the one I fell in love with is Benjamin,” Riley clarified, “the guy w

“It’s obvious that your sister has come here with a goal,” Selena was talking to Jacob in his room. “Fiona is a snake through and through. We can’t let her stay here for long, or she’ll cause our family to split up. If we give our daughters to the billionaires she refers to, then they will try to have control over our family. You do realize that, don’t you?”“So you want me to send my sister and her family away when they came to our house after so many years?” Jacob asked her back in an annoyed voice.“Yeah. You can’t hesitate with a snake, or it will bite you when you’re most vulnerable,” Selena added. “If you don’t send her away, she will stick in this house for a while and make a mess out of our family.”Jacob thought about it. “I can’t do it myself, but I know someone who can.”“Who?” Selena curiously asked.“Your eldest daughter,” Jacob smiled.“Rebecca?” Selena was surprised for a second. “I see. If Fiona confronts Rebecca about her marriage, then Rebecca wouldn’t just watch. If

“How are things with your family, brother?” Fiona asked.Selena raised an eyebrow. “You’re in a family that deals with real-estate, so you should already know how we’re doing.”“Haha, I do, but outside information can only be trusted so much,” Fiona responded. “Recently, we’ve worked hard on getting a marriage deal for Riley. Her fiance owns a reputed sports agency that deals with covering all the popular international sports. He earns hundreds of millions every year, but his father is a tycoon in the alcohol industry. Their net worth is in tens of billions.”“Good for you and your daughter,” Jacob smiled.“By the way, Brother,” Fiona glanced at Veronica and Akash. “What does Veronica’s husband do?”Jacob’s expression slightly changed.Veronica frowned and looked at her mother who was looking back at her with a rather poker face.“He is staying at home for now,” Veronica said openly.“Pfft, he’s jobless?” Riley snorted. “Your taste is so bad, Veronica, not just in terms of finding a pa

Benjamin went to the first floor and waited in the hall until Rebecca left her room.Then he went to her room. The door was locked, but he solidified his energy in the keyhole and opened the door.He entered the room quietly and saw the water bottle on the table next to her desk. It was half-full.Benjamin took out the vial and poured a drop of water into the bottle while saying ‘I love you, Rebecca.’He entered the bathroom and poured a couple of drops in the bathtub while once more uttering the three words ‘I love you, Rebecca.”He was about to come out of the room, but then he stopped and then ended up leaking another drop of water on the pillow, and another on the blanket. “I love you, Rebecca.”“Hopefully, this will help,” he thought.Benjamin then hurriedly left the room and then went to the rooftop. He mixed a few more drops in each of the four water tanks, while saying the words out, “I love you, Rebecca.”He looked at the vial.Three fourths of it was finished.He put the via

Despite Uzza, Rye, and Benjamin living in separate rooms, there were many guest rooms still available in the mighty Sterling villa, the best property on Rachel Hill.So, the families of Jacob’s siblings stayed in those rooms without any issue.But the problem was with the cousins, who were trying to show off. They acted arrogant and haughty with Veronica and even mocked Rebecca for the little hair she had on her head, not even bothering to wonder why exactly her hair was like that.Rebecca didn’t even bother talking to them, or sparing a word with them because she knew how selfish and self-centered these people were.Jacob and Shawn might have forgiven these people, but Rebecca couldn’t just act like nothing ever happened.She didn’t treat them badly, either. She just ignored them and minded her business.However, her cousin sisters got their eyes on Benyamin who was quite good-looking. Her cousin brothers were also unable to avert their eyes from Rye.Rye looked more like an exotic f

So many people started visiting Sterling villa ever since Selena herself had leaked the news of her buying a lot of land and buildings in Aurora Hills.Selena was sitting on the balcony, with Veronica next to her.“Why has the traffic increased so much?” Veronica said, “I’m seeing so many cars come and go recently.”Selena somewhat smiled and sipped on cream coffee. “I wasn’t born rich, Veronica. My relatives didn’t even let my parents into their homes or invite us to their functions because we were poor as church mice.”“Stop joking, Mom,” Veronica smirked with amusement. “You look like a million dollars. I’m sure our relatives’ sons back then would have wanted to marry you.”“You’re not entirely wrong, but they didn’t want to marry me as much as they wanted to mess with me,” Selena said. “I still remember one guy telling me, ‘I may look ugly as hell, but I can show you heaven in bed.’”Veronica went silent in shock. She didn’t think her mother’s beauty would have brought such terrib

Delle was bringing food, three varieties, on a big plate.Rye intercepted and took the plate from her. She brought it to Benjamin and sat by him under the tree.The grass was cool, even though the breeze was warm.“You think I haven’t noticed that you weren’t eating anything since you made that 40-day promise?” Rye said. “You were just acting like you’re eating.”She broke the bread mixed with fruit and brought it closer to his mouth.He didn’t open his mouth.“Do you want me to stop eating just like you are doing?” Rye said.Benjamin, who was staring into the distance, glanced at her. “Is it possible to love and hate at the same time?”Rye pursed her lips together, not quite understanding why he asked such a question. “I was angry with the things you did. I am still angry, but I don’t hate you. So, if you really love someone, I don’t think you can hate them.”“If there is no hatred in his heart, then how is Neel able to do this to me?” Benjamin asked, a hint of pain laced through his

Rebecca and Benyamin had breakfast together.This nearly made Selena’s eyes bleed. She didn’t think she’d live a day like this.Watching them eating happily was like injecting poison into her body.While she loved seeing her daughter happy, she couldn’t spare any mercy on the man who tricked her daughter into marrying him.Even now, she was thinking in her heart, devising plans on how to separate her daughter and her husband.Having lost the mood to eat breakfast, she came to the backyard.Amber was preparing the background setting needed for the interview.“Where’s Kathy?” Selena asked.“S-She’s with Samuel Sehla, ma’am,” Amber hesitantly said.Selena’s gaze turned a little icy, but then she smiled. “I knew Kathy had it in her, but I didn’t think she’d be able to grab the attention of someone like Samuel Sehla.” She looked at Amber. “What about you?”“I-I don’t plan on grabbing anybody’s attention,” Amber quickly replied.“Tsk, tsk,” Selena shook her head. “Try to grab Benyamin’s att
