Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 584
“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

On the same night, at the dinner table.Every single member of the Sterling family was eating right now. Jacob, Selena, Shawn, Louis, Elizabeth, Bella, Rebecca, Veronica, Lisa, Roshan, Vlad, Mercie, Dorothy, Nolan, and even Georg were there.Benjamin was sitting next to Rebecca. His focus was more on trying to talk with them than on eating.“Rebecca, how could you marry a poor guy like him?” George said. “If I had known you would do something like this, I would have married you myself.”Everybody at the table looked at George in a not so friendly manner.“Easy, guys. It was just a joke,” George laughed out loud because no one was laughing.“By the way, Rebecca, your recent scarf and monkey cap designs have become quite popular,” Shawn said. “They are going to be selling like hot cakes this winter.”“Does this mean your salary is going to increase even more?” Elizabeth asked.“Actually, I worked together with a fellow colleague of the company,” Rebecca said. “So, it’s not entirely my c

“I’m done,” Rebecca finished eating and so she stood and was leaving.“Love,” Benjamin grabbed her wrist.“Pfft,” Selena ended up spilling the water in her mouth.Everyone else was just as shocked by what Benjamin did. Not only did he call Rebeeca as ‘Love,’ he also grabbed her hand? Nobody in the house would dare to do such a thing, so how could he do something like that so easily?Veronica was goggle-eyed and stared at them stupidly. Calling her sister ‘Dear’ wasn’t enough? He had to call her ‘Love’ as well? She could tell that Rebecca was definitely upset this time.“You forgot your mobile,” Benjamin picked up the mobile from the table and put it in her hand.As angry as Rebecca was, she controlled herself and said, “Come up after you are done eating.” Saying that she went upstairs.“Okay, Love.”Rebecca walked away in quick and heavy steps. The goodly bedrock of ego and hatred in her heart felt quaking right now.Benjamin continued eating.“How did you two meet?” Veronica asked. “

“Go! Get out!” Roshan rather violently pushed Benjamin out.Benjamin let himself out.Roshan quickly jumped into the car and shut the door. Benjamin came to the other side, but Roshan didn’t open the door. “Adios,” he said and drove away.Benjamin tapped his foot on the ground. A faint surge of electricity went through the road and struck the car, causing its engine to stop almost immediately.“H-Huh?” Roshan was utterly confused. “What happened?”Benjamin walked over to the door and said, “Even the car doesn’t want you to run it.”“I-I didn’t do anything,” Roshan said. “It stopped on its own.”“I’m sure it didn’t,” Benjamin replied.“Please trust me, I didn’t do anything,” Roshan said. “Don’t tell Mom about this, or she’ll kill me!’“Don’t worry, and open the door,” Benjamin said.Roshan opened the door, and Benjamin grabbed the keys. And then he opened the hood and acted as if he did some repair.And then Benjamin sat down in the driving seat and started the engine. The car did star

Benjamin and Roshan spent almost an hour roaming around before returning to the villa.Benjamin bought some fruits when Roshan had actually asked him to buy hot snacks. Because Roshan had a short temper, he refused to eat these fruits.“I’m going to give you a fail grade, Uncle,” Roshan said and rushed into the villa.“Doesn’t he know that the car had a camera installed inside?” Benjamin wondered. “Anyway, I brought some grapes because they were sweet. I can’t wait to eat these together with Rebecca.”As he entered the building, he saw Vlad and Mercie watching a vampire tv show. Benjamin came to them and took out two pomegranate fruits. They looked at the fruits and then got up and quickly scuttled to their rooms.“The lambs that became kids… how pitiful,” Benjamin muttered under his breath. “I just hope their parents did not turn them to sacrifice them later on.”He exhaled audibly and was going upstairs, but then Selena was waiting for him at the top with a pleasant smile on her fac

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
