Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 599
A large cabin private jet was flying through the sky at about 7000 ft high.The Sterling family members were inside the jet.Everyone was busy doing something, except for Benjamin and Rebecca. She was staring out through the glass window.Benjamin was sitting in front of her, staring at her instead. She acted like she didn’t care, but Benjamin just wouldn’t look away.“How long are you going to keep staring at me?” she asked. “Do I have something on my face?”Benjamin softly shook his head. “Everyone is busy with their own things. I have nothing else to do, so I’m just trying to start a conversation with you.”“I thought you’d be excited by the flight journey, but it looks like you’ve traveled on fights before?” she wondered.“No, this is my first time,” Benjamin replied. “And it’s better than I thought.”“Better than you thought?” Rebecca raised her eyebrows. “Downplaying your own experience for no good reason will not make you look humble. It will only make you look arrogant.”“I wa

After traveling for more than ten thousand miles, spending about ten hours in the plane, Benjamin finally was able to land on the ground again. He was feeling weird but relieved because traveling in the plane for so long made him feel a bit strange in the stomach. He didn’t have any altitude problems, so he wasn’t sure if it was because of the plane, or the fact that nobody tried to strike a conversation with him on the plane for ten hours. The only one who talked with him was Rebecca. Veronica also shared a few words, but that’s it. Nobody else spared any time for him and ignored him as if he didn’t exist while they were laughing and cracking jokes together. If not for Rebecca, he would have felt much worse on the plane. However, when he realized when the plane landed, he changed his opinion because he understood that the ex-royal family that Rebecca had talked about was the Hellmann family. Benjamin could see the people from the Hellmann family who came to meet and greet Selena.

About 600 families were invited to the wedding, including the Sterling family. And they were all chatting in the garden between the castle and the outer wall.“There are more guests than I thought,” Benjamin was following Rebecca from a distance. “Was I worried over nothing?” He looked in the direction of Selena. She was talking with a big group of her lady fans. “Mother sure is popular. But if only she controlled her attitude, she’d be more popular, I think. Mm?” Just then, he noticed someone approaching Rebecca and starting a conversation with her.It was Arthur Hellmann, the first son of the Hellmann family, who was forty-eight years old and was mostly bald.Benjamin patiently waited, but even after five minutes passed, Arthur was still talking with her. He couldn’t watch anymore and joined their conversation. “Hello, ma’am,” he came up from behind and gently tucked Rebecca’s hair behind her ear with his fingers.Rebecca wouldn’t let anyone touch her hair, but now, she forced herse

“This does not look like they spent millions of dollars for this wedding,” Veronica was talking to herself while recording. “I was expecting so much, but this is underwhelming. I guess these people just want to show off to the outside world by quoting the number in millions when they spend far less in reality. It is shameful.”A few guards came up to her and told her to stop recording and even warned her that if she continued this behavior, they would send her out.Veronica told them she’d not record videos anymore, but she still kept the camera on as she roamed about.Just then Veronica saw Rebecca and Benjamin arguing about something. “This is going to be interesting,” she quietly scuttled on her toes and closed in on them.“Why did you take my earpods? Give them back to me,” Rebecca asked him.“I’m telling you. They’re not safe for your health,” he explained. “Their radiation is going to affect your brain negatively. You should stop using them.”“You said what you want, and I will

A lovely jazz song was being sung at the wedding in the background by popular music artist Jack Armstrong.“Fabulous occasion, showering jubilation, hearts in levitation. Can you feel the sensation? All in celebration.“Wonderful revelation, Selena fascination, hearts in-toxication. Can you feel the sensation? All in adoration…”The song set a nice tone that soothed people’s moods, and Selena loved how her name was incorporated into the song, and she felt elevated. She raised a glass of wine and showered a pretty smile at Jack who went on to sing that her smile could cure depression and that her presence would be a great blessing for the ones starting a new relationship.It wasn’t just Selena that was praised but all the important guests, each of whom were addressed through different types of songs.Veronica was secretly recording it. “I’ve never heard this type of music before. It’s so fresh. I’ll have these types of songs played at my wedding, too.”Rebecca heard her words and smirk

Benjamin came down from the stage and was walking toward Rebecca.A waiter came up to him and offered him a wine glass. Benjamin was about to pick one, but he stopped and walked past the waiter.“It’s a very tasty wine, sir,” the waiter persuaded him to drink. “Please try it once.”“No,” Benjamin didn’t change his mind.After he took a couple of steps, something came flying at him fast. Benjamin could have dodged it, but with that speed, it could easily hurt someone badly, so he caught it with his hand.He opened his hand, and it was a toothpick.“Who threw this thing?” He looked around but did not find anyone particularly suspicious.He flicked the toothpick away and went to Rebecca who was still eating.“Did you like my song?” he asked her with a bit of expectation.“Hmph, you call that a song? It was more like a rhyming poem,” she snorted.“Their souls are still the same, aren't they?” Benjamin said. “Madam Rebecca? Just like how our souls are the same…”Rebecca almost choked on wh

Rebecca said she would need to go to the bathroom and left Benjamin’s side. After all, her heart felt greatly disturbed by the little things that Benjamin did. His words might not have stirred her heart with much success, but when he wiped her tear away, which was a very intimate act, her heart swelled with a strange emotion she couldn’t comprehend, much less describe it.And she didn’t want to be around Benjamin right now.Benjamin didn’t follow her for obvious reasons, even though he wanted to. After all, she was going to the portable women’s washroom.After she left, Benjamin opened his hand, and on his palm was a crystalized tear. He could see its shape and structure, and it was telling him a little story.He put his hand in his pocket.He faintly smiled as he felt his heart beating strangely. It was as if his blood swirled around his heart like a cyclone charged with the rush of youthfulness.Just then, Shawn was walking past him, and he briefly stopped and looked at Benjamin. “Y

As Veronica screamed, her mouth was forcibly shut.“Don’t shout,” Benjamin hushed her. “It’s me.”Veronica was still shocked because she got the wrong idea. Why was Benjamin here? Was he following her? What was he going to do to her now?“You shouldn’t have come here,” Benjamin said.Veronica tried to push Benjamin away, but that wasn’t working, so she bit on his hand.Benjamin hissed a little in pain. “What was that for?”“That’s my question! What are you doing here? Why are you trying to shut me up?” she asked. “Did you apply some kind of powder to your hand? Am I going to lose consciousness soon?”“The heck are you talking about?” Benjamin was saying, and then four workers wearing waiter uniforms entered the room.Veronica saw them and quickly walked toward them. “Hello, I’m one of the guests. That guy followed me here and is harassing me. Can you beat him up?”One of the workers, however, grabbed her hand, startling her.“What are you doing?” she yanked her hand fast and freed her

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
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 899
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
