Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 701
Rebecca did not push Benjamin into the pool to mock him. She did it out of frustration and anger.Nevertheless, Veronica and Lisa started laughing.However, Benjamin started struggling to swim and seemed to be drowning.“D-Doesn’t he know how to swim?” Veronica wondered.“I think he’s acting,” Lisa said. “Let’s wait and see if he really drowns or not.”Both of them waited instead of helping him, but then Rebecca jumped into the pool and grabbed him and pulled him to the edge.“How can you not know how to swim?” she asked.Benjamin emotionally hugged her while breathing hard. “Thank you. I thought no one would help me.”Rebecca was taken by surprise, and he was squeezing her a bit hard. Luckily, the water reduced the pressure she felt, but still, she felt like she was being hugged by a bear.“Hey, what are you doing in front of us?” Veronica said. “Go to your room if you’re going to kiss and cuddle.”“Yeah, don’t make us unmarried women feel jealous!” Lisa blurted.“You’re still a girl

It was Sunday.Yet, Benjamin had to go to work, and Selena used this to talk trash about Benjamin’s job to her daughter.“Even on Sundays, he delivers pizzas to strangers,” Selena snorted. “He can’t even take his wife to a movie or anywhere for that matter. Oh, wait, he can take you along to deliver pizzas, can’t he, Rebecca? Why don’t you ask him to take you along next week?”Rebecca had sat down to watch the news, but her mother was bothering her.“Don’t look at me like that, sweetie,” Selena said without blinking. “You brought that man here without knowing his roots. We have no idea what kind of a person he is. While he may look like a hardworking character in front of us, what is his real character? How does he behave when none of us are watching? Now, what do you call a man who gives thousands of dollars to a woman he has never met before?”“What are you getting at exactly, Mom?” Rebecca hissed. “Stop beating around the bush and get to the point.”“If the man has lots of money, t

Rebecca did not ask Benjamin what he had done with the 25,000 dollars or to whom he had given that money. However, she did use her sources to find out the identity of the woman and went to talk with her directly inside a random restaurant.And this woman told her, “I don’t know why you’re interested in your bodyguard’s affairs, ma’am, but why would a man give so much money to a woman like me? He’s not older than me, so I can’t call him a sugar daddy.So, I guess I’ll call him a sugar son?”Rebecca didn’t get upset by her words but carefully scrutinized her expression while stirring the spoon in the lemonade. “You expect me to believe that he’s interested in you? Do I look like I’m fucking stupid to you?”“I-I’m not young, but I’m still in good shape, ma’am,” she retorted. “If you don’t believe me, then there’s nothing I can do.”“Did my Mom put you up to this?” Rebecca asked.The woman was startled for a second.Rebecca took a check from her purse. She wrote ten thousand dollars on it

Benjamin was making his delivery during the evening on Sunday.His delivery point turned out to be a private masonic lodge. When Benjamin arrived there, he saw the symbols at their entrance and did not wish to enter the building. So, he called the person on his mobile and told them to come out and take the delivery.Moments later, two old men in black suits came out of the lodge. They weren’t his customers, but they saw Benjamin and could not take their eyes off of him.Benjamin did not like their gazes, but he ignored them.Still, they came closer to him with a smile on their faces. “You have the looks needed to become a top movie star. So, why are you delivering the pizzas? Have you ever tried auditioning for films?”“I’m not interested in acting,” Benjamin replied.“Don’t speak such profane things,” one of those two men took out his visiting card. “Take this and give us a call. We’ll introduce you to some important figures in the movie business. I’m sure they’ll give you a chance.”

Later that night.Benjamin came home late that night because had to take a bus, which didn’t come through the shortcut that Rebecca would use.When he entered the building, he was expecting Selena to be waiting for him at the couch, but she wasn’t there.Benjamin was quickly hurrying upstairs, but Kathy came over to him and said, “Madam Selena told me to collect money from you.”“I don’t trust you,” Benjamin said and then completely ignored her and went to his room.Kathy’s jaw slackened. “How rude. For an unpaid maid, why does he have so much ego?”Meanwhile, Benjamin entered the room, and Rebecca seemed to be waiting for him. However, the look in her eyes wasn’t cool but cold.“You are going to be standing on the couch tonight,” she said.“If I’m standing, how can I sleep?”“You have no other choice,” Rebecca indifferently said, “if you want to keep living in this room together with me, then you have to do it.”“T-That’s not fair,” Benjamin said, but she didn’t seem to care about hi

At around 6:15 in the morning.Rebecca opened her eyes. She quickly looked to her left to see if Benjamin was still there. And he was still sleeping, with his head put on the pillow. But no part of his body crossed the line.Rebecca did not regret allowing him to sleep on the bed because he didn’t cause any trouble. However, as she looked at him sleeping so defenselessly, she found herself staring at his face, which looked very bright as the morning light hit his face.His bright pink lips made her heart beat a little faster. Those were like the lips of a child and were full of life.She kept staring at him, pulling her lower lip into her mouth. (Control yourself, Rebecca. He’s a man. How can I lose my control over him when he didn’t lose his control?) She clenched her fist and then somehow managed to get off the bed.She did not make any sounds as it might wake him up. She quietly opened the door and walked out.She could hear the discussion happening in the hall downstairs.“Just wh

“Get up, you trash!”Selena’s strikes were like massaging to Benjamin, and it made him mumble in his sleep as he felt good.“Krgh, this buffalo isn’t feeling a thing,” she changed the target and began to strike his head this time.And this forced Benjamin to wake up quickly.“Eh? Mother-in-law,” Benjamin was rather shocked to see Selena holding a pillow and standing next to the bed. “What are you doing here? Why is there a pillow in your hands? Did you come here to give us another pillow? I think we have enough.”“As if I’d ever do that!” she threw the pillow in his face. “Why didn’t you wake up until now?”Benjamin rubbed his eyes and said, “Rebecca and I talked a lot last night. I slept late, so that’s why I couldn’t wake up early.”Selena gritted her teeth. “What did you two talk about for that long?”“About love,” Benjamin replied.Selena’s face slightly flushed even though she still looked angry. “W-What?” She couldn’t ask for further details and just walked out without saying an

For the next few weeks, Benjamin had tried various methods to get closer to Rebecca. He would tell her how good she looks and how nice she smells, and how beautiful her smile was, but she would act indifferent to his advances. When he tried to hold her hand, she would pull her hand away and spare a cold gaze at him.And at the same time, Selena was always trying to separate them, hoping one of those two would give up on the other before Rebecca got pregnant.Benjamin had to pay his salary and the tip-income to Selena. Though he was a little frustrated about it, he was also glad that Rebecca did not demand him for things like food or clothes.Then again, should he be happy that she wasn’t relying on him for anything?It had been a few months since they got married.There was no kissing.There was no hugging.No touch.No intimacy.When Benjamin got a little excited one evening and hugged Rebecca when she came to pick him up from his job, she got angry and then told him to live in a se

The next morning.Rebecca came out of her room fast and reached the dorms just to check on Benyamin. She found him brushing his teeth with his finger. And he was using salt.“Don’t you have a brush and toothpaste?” Rebecca quickly asked. “You should have asked me then.”“No, I’m fine with this,” Benyamin replied. “The smell of the chemicals in the toothpaste just makes me feel nauseous, so I’m fine with just this sea salt.”“But… will salt be enough?”“It’s enough,” Benyamin gave a thumbs-up. “In fact, I’m worried about you because you’re using that chemical-ridden toothpaste which dullens your brain.”“If they dullen the brain, then why would they promote toothpastes so much on television?”“They will promote everything that will make them money while keeping the people sick, so that they will not be able to think clearly and would rather depend on the government to think for themselves,” Benyamin smiled.“That’s not funny,” Rebecca hissed. “I have to go and brush my teeth. And I’m f

Later that night.Benjamin was out in the garden, sitting under a tree, doing nothing as hours went by.“He’s been like that since dinner,” Rye was watching him from the first floor’s window. “It’s not good.”“What can I say?” Uzza was feeling heavy-hearted. “It feels like the story of Abel and Cain altogether, though in a different way. The brothers that represent the duality of current man. The devil sure knows how to mock us and make us angry. I’m certain now. It’s his plan. He put the sworn brothers against each other.”“But how did he get Shadow?” Rye frowned. “I don’t sense any demonic energy in him.”“Considering Shadow’s abilities, it’s easy for him to hide the demonic energy,” Uzza opined. “He’s a perfect place for demons to hide, though I don’t know how they got hold of him. He must have been caught by surprise. I just hope that this won’t lead to something disastrous.” She was looking at Benjamin. “The longer this goes, the more likely that someone among those is going to b

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
