Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 580
Over a year ago.Selena worked out for twenty minutes on spin-bike and covered exactly ten kilometers while watching a program on mobile. She was just starting to sweat, but then she received a text message from her mobile.It was a message from her eldest daughter.“Come downstairs? What does she mean? Did she get a promotion or something? And where was she last night? She did say she might stay at Jane’s house, but she didn’t stay at her friend’s house in a long time.”She got down from the bike and after she read the message. She cleaned herself with a towel before coming down the stairs. It wasn’t just her but Jacob was also out of his room at the same time wearing a colorful night dress and eating peppermint to mask off the smell of alcohol.Devon, the old butler,was already in the hall, standing next to his wife Sheron. They had already prepared breakfast.But what caught Selena’s eyes wasn’t the food on the table, but the ones standing on the other side of the table. Rebecca w

“He can live here,” Jacob said, and it wasn’t an easy thing to say, even though Jacob’s love had been partial toward his sons more than his daughters.“Thank you,” Rebecca said and then took Benjamin upstairs in a rush.“S-She’s really taking that man to her room,” Selena’s heart raced for many reasons. “Jacob, why the hell are you just watching? That man must have tricked his daughter. Beat him and kick him out.”“He didn’t hold her hand, Selena,” Jacob replied. “She held his hand. As long as she holds his hand, I cannot hit him.”Selena looked baffled. “So you are not going to do anything?”“I’m just as shocked as you are,” Jacob said. “I just don’t show it on my face like you, that’s all. At any rate, our daughter has finally brought a man to our house. If she really likes him, then what’s the issue?”“What’s the issue? He’s a freaking pizza-delivery guy! He smells like dough and tomatoes!” Selena hissed. Rebecca never brought a man home in the past. Selena knew that her daughter h

On the same night after Rebecca brought Benjamin home.Everyone in the house was talking about Rebecca and Benjamin. None of them could see Benjamin because he hadn't left her room since three o’clock in the afternoon.“Why aren’t they coming out?” Roshan asked. “What are they doing in the room for so long? Aren’t they hungry?”“Just eat,” Lisa slapped on the back of Roshan’s head lightly. Being only 13 years old, he was still oblivious to the affairs of the adults, so Lisa could only tell him to stop worrying and questioning.“But I want to see the man that Aunt Rebecca married,” Roshan said. He came home from school in the evening, and had been wanting to see Benjamin ever since. “She refused to even see the pictures of guys that Mom and Dad tried to show to her, didn’t she? So, what kind of a man did she bring home after marrying?”“He’s a pizza-delivery guy, it seems,” Lisa said.“Huh? You really believe that?” Roshan shook his head. “Aunt Rebecca’s standards aren’t that low.”“Ye

Benjamin’s second day in the Sterling villa.He woke up late because he found it difficult to sleep in that house last night, and he ended up sleeping late in the morning.By the time he woke up, Rebecca wasn’t in the room. He was feeling hungry, so he just rinsed his mouth with coconut oil and then stepped out of the room. “I got a three-day leave, but I thought I was going to be with her. Still, getting to know her family is also important. Mm?”He looked down and saw a woman downstairs, wearing a sparkling dress and talking in a posh manner. “Cheating is a breach of the most important commitment you make in life. There are no excuses for cheating. Those who cheat don’t deserve sympathy let alone a second chance,” she was talking loudly with her friend through her mobile. “The world is full of liars, bullies, fruitcakes and cheats because there are no severe consequences. I’m not telling you to shoot him in the head, or marry him and then mess up his life. Instead, just end the curr

“I don’t know anything about womenomics,” Benjamin said. “I don’t even know about economics. You can’t even buy much food in the shop for you and your family with the money you earn after working for a day. So, something is seriously wrong with our economy and those that dictate it. On the contrary, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with your sis. She’s not unmoving like you said. She’s a bit indifferent at times, but she talks and acts just fine with me.”“She does?” Veronica looked a little surprised. “I guess, you’re just her type then? You know, like the guy of her dreams…”Benjamin smiled. “I hope so. By the way, I’m Benjamin. You are…”“Veronica.”“It’s nice to meet you, my sister-in-law…” Benjamin said. “What do you do, Miss?”“Ugh,” Veronica’s expression quickly changed.“Is something wrong?” Benjamin asked.“No, but I’m still a child you know,” Veronica said. “I don’t want to do a job. Adulting is so hard. Like you said, you don’t earn enough even if you work hard these da

Selena did not continue talking with Benjamin and instead went outside.Dorothy was also present at the time, and she was happy on the inside to see Selena so angry. It amused her.She waited until Benjamin finished eating food, and then she told him to take the wheelie bin in the backyard to the outside so that the garbage collectors could unload the trash when they came.Benjamin went to the backyard, where he saw Oliver Claude, another butler who was chopping live lamb right now.Seeing Benjamin, he snorted, “What? You think you can chop the lamb like I can?”“I didn’t say anything,” Benjamin replied.“Yeah, but the look on your face…” Oliver pointed the knife at him and bit on his lower lip. “I don’t like it. What are you here for anyway? Did you steal something and are trying to run away now?” He brought the knife down hard and struck the lamb’s leg. And the piece flew away into the distance.Benjamin took a step to the side and caught it, pleasantly surprising Oliver. He tossed

Benjamin entered the villa, and Veronica was waiting for him at the back door.“Can you help me with one thing?” she asked.“Sure,” Benjamin said.“I want you to act like you’re the new butler in the villa,” Veronica said. “I will record you working and post it to my friends.”“And why do you want me to do that?” Benjamin couldn’t help but ask. “Aren’t there other butlers?”“Yeah, but they don’t look all cute and handsome like you,” she said. “So, do this for me, and I’ll pay you.”“Pay me?”“Yeah, I will.”“I don’t need money.”“Then you will work for free?!” she excitedly asked.“You shouldn’t fool your friends, so don’t do this,” saying that, he walked past her.Veronica was offended by that. “It’s only acting. Why are you making a big deal out of it?”“Acting or not, lying is not good,” Benjamin replied.“I’ll pay you more.”“No.”“Then what do you want?” Veronica raised her voice.Benjamin stopped and turned around. “You’re my sister-in-law. I’m your brother-in-law. Just tell you

On the same evening day.Rebecca was coming home in her red Porsche. And she was talking with Jane on the phone. “I spent 1800 dollars on that tiny bottle. I had it shipped from another country, but it didn’t even last four hours. It’s trash. They are just looting. These designer perfumes… they are completely losing my trust. Shame on them. How can they blatantly steal money from us using their brand names? How can they take their profession so lightly?”“Calm down, girl,” Jane said in a sleepy voice. “Don’t burst my ears. I just woke up. If the perfume lasts only four hours, then you just have to put it on twice. What’s so hard about it?”“It’s 1800 dollars, Jane! If I thought it was so shitty, I would have bought an 18 dollar one instead,” Rebecca hissed. “I don’t want to keep checking if my perfume is still there or not. I want to focus on my work when I’m working, you see. And the last thing I want is someone to tell me that I don’t smell good. I can’t make others feel bad when I

Veronica brought Akash with her to dinner. Almost everybody was present at the dinner table after a very long time.New tables were arranged because there were more people now.Veronica could see that Akash was not taking his eyes off Benyamin. “Why are you staring at him nonstop?” she asked in a low voice.“He’s tall, handsome, and so fair. Even his hands are so shiny. How’s that possible for a man?” Akash sounded quite envious. “Men are not supposed to look so good-looking, right?”“Mm…” Veronica looked at Benyamin and felt the same. “He does look like a million bucks, but he doesn’t seem to have much muscle on his body. What’s the point of being tall when you don’t have enough muscle? You only look like you have inadequate genes.”“Not every man can be built heavy like the men in your family.”“Haha, you’re right,” Veronica was proud of her brothers and dad because they were tall and big and good-looking. Their jaws alone would melt the gazes of many women, after all.Rye and Benja

Benyamin couldn’t go upstairs with Rebecca because he refused to tell Selena what he was doing all these days.Selena wouldn’t have allowed him to go past her unless he gave her proof, so he settled with staying in the dorms for the time being.Rebecca dressed up very nicely and attended dinner. Because Benyamin wasn’t present, she was about to visit the dorms, but Selena told her to sit at the table.Selena sent Delle to go and bring Benyamin, saying sarcastically that he might otherwise get lost.Rebecca sat down and waited patiently. (Why didn’t he just tell her what happened? Things would have been easier if he told her everything. What does he have to hide?)Meanwhile, at the dorms.Benjamin and Rye were both present in the same hall as Shadow. Rye was silent, and Benjamin was doing the talking.“What is your relationship with Rebecca?” he asked Shadow.“Obviously, I’m her husband,” Shadow replied. “Don’t you know that already?”Benjamin frowned. “Stop joking.”“I’m not joking.

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
