Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 654
About an hour after Benjamin left for work, Elizabeth came down the stairs and greeted her mother-in-law who was applying raw, unpasteurized milk to her skin.“I’m going to the mayor’s party. Do you want me to bring anything for you?” she asked Selena. “Wait,” she waved her hand before her nose. “What’s this nasty smell?”“Mm? It’s not from the milk,” Selena sniffed the air and then her gaze shifted toward the dustbin. “It must be from the pizza box in the dustbin. I threw it there yesterday.”“What? Pizza is smelling this bad in just one day?” Elizabeth blurted. “That’s horrible. Just what shop it was ordered from?” Her shoulders shivered. She called for the maids and told them to clear the dustbin right away. And then she went her way.“Why is my daughter-in-law smart in useless things and stupid in everything else?” Selena wondered. “Most of the burgers and pizzas and donuts you buy outside will look the same even if you store them in a box for a few weeks. But this pizza started s

“You’re working in the sun. At least drink some water,” Rebecca said.Benjamin almost skidded into a halt. He was actually very thirsty because he didn’t drink anything in nearly 20 hours, though he did bathe in the morning.“Ahem,” Benjamin cleared his throat. “I’m not ‘that’ thirsty, but because I brought your bag, I deserve to drink a little bit of cold water.” He grabbed the bottle. “You wouldn’t mind if I drink from this bottle, right?”“Drink all of it if you want. Eat the bottle, too, if you wish to. I don’t care,” she replied while looking at her computer screen where she was drawing designs.Benjamin opened the lid and poured the contents in his mouth. He was taking a gulp, but straight away, his body reacted, and he was about to spit it out. But he quickly covered his mouth with one hand so that he wouldn’t spill anything out.“Mm?” Rebecca glanced at him. “What’s wrong?”Benjamin shook his head.“Were you thinking of some stupid joke while drinking?” she queried.He shook h

In the Sterling villa, Selena was talking with someone on her mobile. “Yes, Mr. Alan. I’d really appreciate that.”She ended the call and was smiling.“Was that a lawyer you were talking to?” Jacob asked her. Both of them were sitting opposite to each other on couches.“Yeah. Alan Hector. He’s been a judge for fourteen years,” Selena said. “And guess what? He’s never once supported a husband in his judgment over the objection of the wife. Men lost their homes, businesses, and savings because of him.”Jacob frowned. “W-Why are you talking to him now?”“Haha,” Selena chuckled. “Don’t worry, Charlie. I’m not going to divorce you. I’m talking with Alan for our daughter’s sake.”“You think she’ll divorce the delivery guy?” Jacob asked.“I don’t think so. I know so,” Selena confidently said. “And when she does divorce him, I’ll make sure that not only Benjamin will get nothing, he would in return have to pay Rebecca alimony for the rest of his life.”Jacob sighed and shook his head. “You ar

Belmonk looked to his back and saw the fourth person in the room. It was a young man with a pristine look. Belmonk had never seen someone with such clear eyes, fair skin, and dark hair. For a second, he looked like a young male lion entering its maturity just now.“Who are you? How did you enter this place?” Belmonk couldn’t even hear this man coming inside, so he could tell that this young man was not an ordinary person.“You wouldn’t understand even if I tell you,” Benjamin replied, with his hands in his pockets. “Just keep my warning in mind.”The big bodyguard immediately stepped forward.Benjamin immediately took his hand out of his pocket and flicked his finger. Something flew past Belmonk’s face and hit the bodyguard’s forehead and made him crash back violently.The bodyguard’s eyes turned white.Belmonk couldn’t believe his eyes. (A coin? He defeated Gray with a mere coin? Gray is a 10th dan black belt. There are only a few dozen people like him in the world. And he lost so he

Benjamin came to Rye’s Pizzas and quickly changed back into his regular clothing and rushed out to meet Rebecca at her car.However, she was salty, and she didn’t open the door.“Open it, love,” he knocked on the door multiple times. “I’m sorry. I wanted to come early, but it took me this long to cross the 100-dollar mark.”“I’ve been here for more than two hours,” she slightly lowered the window and said. She was thinking of rewarding him for his help that morning, but now, she was having second thoughts about it. “I have never waited for someone so long in my entire life.”She did wait for hours for her mother to come home when she was a little kid. But she didn’t exclude those memories right now.“Tell me what to do,” Benjamin said. “Do you want me to do 100 sit-ups?” He touched his ears and started doing sit-ups.After he did more than forty, the back door opened.Benjamin stopped doing the sit-ups and quickly entered the car.“I would have let you do a hundred of those, but I’m n

Rebecca and Benjamin reached the villa. She stopped the car but didn’t open the door.“Is everything okay?” he asked.“Ah, yeah,” she hesitantly said. “I’m just wondering about the pizzas from Rye’s Pizzas. They smell good, but I’m sure the tomatoes and other ingredients that are added in there are brought up using pesticides, right?”“Actually, no,” Benjamin quickly said. “The founder of the company has made it a strict policy that only fresh, organic items need to be bought. So, all the grains, vegetables, and fruits were bought directly from the farmers. That’s why I think this company can’t become a bigger one because it’s very hard to supply to a larger scale of customers with the amount of organic food stock they can acquire from the farmers. Quality will have to be compromised if it wants to supply pizzas, let’s say, country-wide or even state-wide.”“I see…” Rebecca nodded.“Why are you asking that? Do you want to taste the pizza once?”“N-Not really,” Rebecca hesitantly said.

Rebecca was very frank about punishing Benjamin and also punishing herself at the same time for what happened on that night.However, was she also punishing her own family members by bringing Benjamin into the villa?Was that why she never directly supported Benjamin so far?What was her past?What happened for her to be thinking in this manner?All these thoughts ran through Benjamin’s mind. While he did have the ability to read thoughts to an extent, he did not want to try that on his own family members.“Anyway, if you want me to become a CEO, I’ll become one for you, Rebecca,” Benjamin said. “But if you want me to do it for my in-laws? I’m not so sure about that because the one I’m supposed to share my life and my body with is with you, not with your family. I’m trying to lower their importance, but you are far more important to me than them. I hope you understand my point.”“So you’ll start a company if I want you to?” Rebecca asked.“Why not?” Benjamin said casually. “If I own t

Benjamin rushed over to the dog cages, making Rebecca wonder what he was up to. She normally stayed far away from the dog cases because she didn’t like the smell of the dogs or the cages, but she realized that something was wrong. So, she came a little closer to observe what was going on.All the dogs were bleeding from their mouths and noses. One of the dogs had its eyes completely turn red as if something badly hurt her.“W-What happened to those dogs?” Rebecca asked. “Did they fight each other?”“No,” Benjamin’s voice was serious. “Glass pieces got into their skin and mouth.”“Huh? Why would they mess with glass?” she wondered.“They wouldn’t,” Benjamin looked around and eventually found the bucket. He saw that glass was mixed with the meat chunks. “Someone mixed glass pieces with meat before feeding it to the dogs.”Rebecca was utterly shocked. “No way. Who would do such a thing?”Benjamin looked at the dogs, but they didn’t seem to know the answer. “Oliver feeds them, so we shoul

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 Benjam

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
