Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 566
In the Sehla estate.Andrew Sehla’s second granddaughter Katherine came home from school in the afternoon itself, looking moderately angry. “I thought Lisa would come to the school at least today, after the storm had passed, but no, she still didn’t come, Mom,” she was telling to her mother Kismet, whose right half of the face was paralyzed due to her own mishap.“Be patient, Kat,” Kismet spoke with effort. Her voice was not clear or pretty as it used to be because she couldn’t move her mouth properly anymore. She couldn’t even look at herself in the mirror anymore because half of her face looked ugly, in the sense that it was not responding to her thoughts. Her right eyelid wasn’t moving up and down. And she struggled a lot to chew food. In the past, she took chewing for granted, but now, she had to spend an hour eating just a little bit of food.All this pain she was going through every second of life today, she wanted all of the Sterling family to pay for it!Even her daughters Nai

Victoria was in her early sixties, but because of the makeup and stylish dress she was wearing, she looked ten years younger.Her daughter, Sofia Myers, who was in her mid thirties, was also wearing a beautiful dress studded with jewels. However, she did not have the same glow in her face as her mother did. She was more beautiful than her mother, but she did not look happy right now. It was as if she was lacking something, that something in her heart was constantly bothering her.“Put some smile on your face, Sofia,” Victoria told her daughter as they entered the estate. “How long are you going to spend your mental energy on Carlos! Just erase his memory from your mind! Move on! All you need to do is snap your fingers, and a thousand men will flock at you for your attention.”“Those thousands that fall at my feet do not interest me anymore, Mom,” Sofia replied in a bit of a dull voice.“I’ve been searching for him these past few weeks,” Victoria added, “so that I can kill him and thro

Kismet, Sofia, and Victoria talked for almost forty minutes before they came to an agreement.After the mother and daughter left, Naida asked her mother, “They used to be arrogant in the past. But now, they suffered losses and are not as powerful as us anymore, Mom. Still, they shamelessly came to us for help. Why are you asking for their help when they came here to seek our help?”“Know this one thing, Naida,” Kismet told her. “We can’t always be on top of others. The time we shine is not permanent, so it’s important for us to make as many friends and business partners as possible. If we can mend the relationship with an enemy and turn him into a friend, then we must be willing to do it all the more. Of course, we must always ensure that we’ll be on top.” Her face started hurting, so she couldn’t talk as much as she wanted. “Even if you hate them, don’t show it in your face. Got it?”Niada and Katherine nodded.Kismet went to her room. She took out a box full of powerful poisons from

On the late evening of the same Thursday, Jim was waiting for his dad while serving the customers. “He’s late today. He said he’ll be back in an hour, but he’s not here yet.”Currently, Jim was serving at the table where Choi was sitting. Choi knew who he was, but Jim didn’t.Choi looked at the lobster on the plate and said, “Why should I pay for this food?”Jim blinked twice. “Pardon?”“I’m asking why I should pay?” Choi asked again. He came here to just observe Jim as per Uzza’s orders, but he was willing to go a step further and test him.“Because I bought it and cooked for you?” Jim replied. Nobody ever asked him such a question, not even a kid, so Jim was still a bit taken by surprise.“I don’t get it. Do you see monkeys paying humans? They just take the bananas from the vendors and leave,” Choi retorted. “The lions, the tigers, the alligators, they don’t pay for the food they eat. They just fucking snatch it with force.”“Uh, we don’t do such things because we’re humans, duh,” J

The next morning.Selena woke up a bit late because she had stayed up late last night as she had to talk with some people on the phone.So, she was having a headache now. Her muscles felt sore. Her fingers were not bending.“I forgot to drink water before sleeping, and now my body is full of heat…” On top of that, she was feeling weirdly horny, which hadn’t been the case in quite a while. “I’ll be sixty in a few years… and I’m still getting wet dreams. This is embarrassing.”She drank a couple of glasses of water and then a bath, which refreshed her and also cooled her passions. She felt better now.When she came downstairs for breakfast, however, she saw a romantic movie being played on a large projector screen. It was a romance between two young adults, which took Selena back to her younger days. The thoughts once again stirred her passions. She could only shake her head right now as she couldn’t tell Uzza to stop watching that movie.After all, she didn’t have a good reason to tell

Early in the morning, Rebecca was standing on the balcony and was watching the machines eat the grass and debris left after the storm.Akash was working hard, and she appreciated that. “I hope Veronica gets well soon. No, she must.”A black SUV entered the villa.“Who’s here this early?” Rebecca wondered.And then two women stepped out of the car. They were Victoria and Sofia Myers. Rebecca only recognized the latter. “Why is that egotistic woman here?” she had a little bit of interaction with Sofia in the past, so she knew how annoying Sofia could be. “Ah, well, I have no interest in them. They probably are here to give a wedding card or something.”Victoria and Sofia entered the building and greeted Selena who was watching television with Uzza.Selena was acquainted with Victoria, so both of them shook each other's hands very well. She was also happy that someone finally visited her villa after many days. “It’s nice to see you again, Mrs. Victoria. You look stunning.”“Oh, I look no

“His name is… it’s written on my marriage certificate,” Rebeeca said.Sofia blinked twice, and then rolled her eyes. She was expecting Rebecca to have gotten a new flame in her heart, but she didn’t think that the old flame didn’t die yet. “Y-You mean, your husband? He’s dead, isn’t he? You can’t possibly be thinking of staying a widow for the rest of your life, right? You don’t even have children. That’s just stupid. No, it’s beyond stupid.” She got a bit emotional because she herself was in a similar situation where she knew she had to marry someone soon but was also fighting over her own feelings to forget the man she loved even after he gave her the biggest shock of her life and then quietly disappeared.“He’s not dead,” Rebecca answered.“Huh? What do you mean he’s not dead?” Sofia answered. “Don’t give me that ‘he’s still alive in my heart’ or some other sentimental ointment. None of us can live alone, and that’s a fact. Your husband died. You need to find someone suitable for y

Selena and Victoria were having a lot of fun as both of them talked about their careers. Both accomplished a lot, after all. And both of them were also the type who would crush their opposition using any means, so they liked each other’s company.“Why don’t you introduce your daughters to me, and your sons, too?” Victoria asked.“Uh, they are busy with their own work right now,” Selena gave an excuse because none of her children except Shawn seemed to be in their right mind. And Shawn also had gone out secretly to bring George back.“Oh, they’re working from home, huh.”“Um, yeah,” Selena forced out a laugh. “You should have brought your husband, too. I’m sure Gregory and Jacob would have liked each other’s company.”“He’s been very busy lately, trying to recover the losses our company suffered lately,” Victoria said. “It hasn’t been easy for him since our son and youngest daughter left home.”Selena’s heart lost her rhythm a bit from hearing those words. This was something she had al

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
