Moments after Lisa left the balcony, Selena came there. Delle put a chair in between Rebecca and Benjamin, and Selena sat there.Delle gave her coffee and then left.As Selena sipped on the coffee, she looked at her daughter and noticed something. “Rebecca, is that a gray hair on your head?”Rebecca was surprised by that. “No it’s not,” she replied without even taking a look at it. Why would her mother bring up the topic about her hair in front of Benjamin? She didn’t understand it.“I didn’t get a single gray hair until I turned 37,” Selena said. “You’re not even thirty, and you are already starting to get gray hair. That’s not good, Rebecca. Use aloe vera. We have lots of aloe vera growing at our home, so use them.”Rebecca didn’t say anything.“Aloe Vera is good,” Benjamin voiced his mind. “It cools the head and reduces the stress, so it will help promote the health of the hair, but if you want the hair to be darkened, I think you should use related herbs like hibiscus powder.”“I

Rebecca and Benjamin were still on the balcony, and she was staring at the sun. “Is it just me, or does the sun feel a little different?”Benjamin smiled a little. “Why do you feel it’s different?”“I don’t know…” she shrugged. “I don’t feel the same warmth I used to feel.”“I don’t know if you’ve noticed it or not, but the sunflowers in your garden are facing away from the sun.”“W-What?” Rebecca quickly stood and looked down from the balcony and saw the sunflowers, and they were facing the west in the morning. “You’re right. They are facing West. How’s that possible?”“The dandelions haven’t opened their faces,” Benjamin added, “and the birds are singing at 3 and 4 in the morning.”“Why is that?” Rebecca looked confused.“Because their biological clocks have been affected by the so-called sun you see up there,” Benjamin said as he looked at the sun that was no longer giving the warm orange light but was giving a bright white light like that of an LED light. (Even the real sun has be

Rye raised her eyebrows. “Why are you sitting over there? Come and sit next to me.”“Please, Rye, let me sit here,” Benjamin requested.“Why? So that you can sit next to her?” Rye asked without hesitation. “Am I not the one who called you to eat with me?”Benjamin sighed and then changed places and sat next to her.She took out a sliced piece of carrot and brought it closer to his mouth. He didn’t open his mouth and looked at her as if asking what she was doing. “This is the reward for listening to my request.”Benjamin then opened his mouth slightly, and she slid the carrot piece into his mouth like how one would push a coin into the vending machine.But then he wasn’t chewing it, so she said, “You know what, Benjamin, did she ever put anything in your mouth? At least a grape or a biscuit or something?”Benjamin didn’t answer.“Thought so,” Rye slightly shook his head. “Love should be mutual, you know.”“God loved us first when we were still sinners,” he retorted.“Don’t compare your

Most lovers would shy away from questions regarding marriage, which would generally turn the atmosphere into an awkward one. This was what Dorothy was hoping to achieve.The moment she asked that question, ‘When are you two going to marry?’, Benjamin was surprised by it, but Rye wasn’t.Rye quickly wrapped her arm around his arm and smiled while looking at her. “Whenever we’re ready.”Her response was simple and perfect in their eyes.But Dorothy asked, “You mean, you aren’t ready now? No offense, but if you can’t commit to marriage now, then I’m not sure if that thought will change in the future.”“Not when our love is larger than our faults and failures,” Rye leaned into Benjamin and kissed him on the cheek. “He’s already made a very big mistake, but that doesn’t stop me from loving him. And I think the same is the case with him. Isn’t that right, Benjamin?”Benjamin squeezed his lips together.“He’s just being shy,” Rye said, smiling.Dorothy also forced out a smile. (I was trying

Lisa came to Benjamin that morning and asked him to drop her to school again like yesterday.Rye was right next to him, and she said, “Do you really think you can attract him, girl?”Lisa was a bit shocked by Rye’s boldness. How did Rye even see through her hidden intentions? “I-I wasn’t trying to do anything like that.”“I know, but he’s not going to fall for a spoiled child,” Rye said, patting Lisa’s shoulder. “You should ask your dad or mom to drop you at school instead. Go.”Lisa reluctantly left. She was still glancing at Benjamin every now and then, hoping he’d take her out.Rye frowned. “This girl… I tried to humble her a bit, but her ego is quite big.”Benjamin didn’t look surprised. “She’s part of the Sterling family, after all.” His words sounded like they came from experience.“You’ve been with them for a while, so you need some cleansing, too,” Rye told him.Benjamin’s shoulders slumped a little.“I’m just kidding, my guy,” Rye laughed and wrapped her arm around his shoul

When the gun was shot, Uzza was right on the first floor, drinking warm lemon water. She would have intervened if the bullet was going to hit Shawn, but it went right past him and hit the television.“I missed that on purpose,” Samuel said, “but next time, I won’t. So, let’s make this easy for both sides.” He looked at Rebecca. “Honestly, you don’t look that great now. You are so much better looking in your old pictures. Now, you look like you’re recovering from drug addiction or some other self-destructing habit, which most young women these days are unknowingly good at.”“Am I supposed to nod at everything you say because you have a gun?” Rebecca replied, startling everyone.Samuel smiled. “I like your courage.”“I don’t like you, and I can give you a dozen reasons,” Rebecca said. “Your daughter is my age. I’m not going to marry you no matter what you threaten me with.”“Age is not a big deal these days,” Samuel casually said. “Are you worried that the world might think of you as a

At Russell Tower in the Creed Zone region, which was part of Salem city.Andrew Sehla was talking with Regan Creed and his grandson Russell in the meeting hall.“Mr. President, we’ve already talked about this with the last president,” Regan said. “He passed the bill and agreed to it that we don’t use any wireless technology in my Creed Zone. Now, you are telling me to change that.”“I will cover the costs,” Andrew said.“Sorry. It’s not about the cost, sir,” Regan politely said. “The reason we stuck to wired technology is mainly because of health reasons.”“C’mon, wireless technology affects the plants and birds, but they don’t have much effect on us humans,” Andrew said, laughing a little. “We are the ultimate predators in this world. How can we be influenced by mere radio waves? As men, we should look at what’s in front of us and not what’s around us, Mr. Regan. Otherwise, our progress will keep getting halted. All I’m asking for is to make the environment here more government frien

As Benjamin dragged Samuel away, Uzza went to the bodyguard who was trying to force his way into Lisa’s room.She patted his back. He turned around and grabbed her throat and tried to throw her aside. He was big and strong. He should have been able to throw her aside without much of a problem, even though Uzza was nearly ninety kilos in weight. However, he couldn’t move her even an inch.Uzza pressed her thumb on his forearm, which sent a surge of electricity along his arm, forcing him to let go of her. “A man who treats women roughly is worse than a pig and so needs to be treated the same way.” She swiftly slapped him with the back of her hand, making him spin and crash to the floor. He lost consciousness.Lisa was still nervously sitting in her room.“It’s safe now. You can come out if you want,” Uzza told her and walked away. “This little girl seems to have a crush on Benjamin,” she thought. “It’s not her fault. She’s at that age where her hormones excite her, but if she doesn’t le

Shawn brought Benyamin into the villa.With hands in his pockets, Benyamin looked confident and comfortable, as if he didn’t fear anything.“Why did you hit Riley?” Jacob asked him. “For a man to kick a woman in the gut… something vulgar like that…. I never dared to even put such a scene in my movies. What are you thinking when you kicked her? What are you trying to prove?”Benyamin coldly looked at Riley, and she ran and stood behind her mother.“Look at him trying to threaten Riley in front of all of us,” Fiona blurted. “What more proof do you want? Kick this bastard out of this building!”“Why did you hit her?” Jacob asked Benyamin, but he didn’t respond.“Tell us the reason,” Rebecca stepped forward. “Why did you do it? If you haven’t done anything wrong, why are you hesitating?”“I’m not hesitating,” Benyamin replied. “That woman attacked me, and I defended myself. That’s all there is to it. If I really wanted to hurt her, I would have easily punched her nose and broke it.”Selen

Fiona caused a lot of noise and attracted the attention of everyone in the villa.She told them how Benyamin kicked Riley without any conscience, and it enraged Riley’s brothers, uncles, aunts, and dad.Selena was also quite upset by it. “I knew he’s trash, but he stooped to another lower level now.”“He wouldn’t have hit Riley without a reason,” Rebecca backed Benyamin. “First, ask her what she did.”“Are you doubting my daughter?” Fiona glared at her. “You think your husband is a saint or what?”“Whoa, hold it,” Selena intervened. “You don’t talk to my daughter in that tone.”“Why? She’s a princess who rules this country?” Fiona snorted.“One of her hair strands is much more important to me than you and your whole family put together,” Selena replied without hesitation, leaving Fiona and her family members stunned.Benjamin was on the first floor, watching the proceedings. (It’s her obsession over her eldest daughter that has made my life difficult in this villa. She’s obviously not

In the dorms.Maara was swinging the nun-chucks and was hitting two tennis balls against the wall.Benyamin was in the same room, lying on the bed, with his hands under his head. “When are you going to get married, Maara?”Maara didn’t say anything.“You should find someone suitable for you in this city,” Benyamin opined. “Then you won’t have to go back to Sciocidad. That place is pretty boring, isn’t it?”“No, it’s not boring to me,” Marra replied. “It’s where my friends and family are.”“Tsk, you’re boring,” Benyamin openly stated.Maara hit the tennis balls at an angle so that they flew straight toward Benyamin’s face.However, he caught them both with one hand.“Are you butthurt by what I said?” Benyamin smirked. “You are tall and dark. You won’t find a suitable mate in Sciocidad, so you should find your partner here among the commoners. I was telling you what's good for you, but instead of thanking me, you are getting angry at me.”Maara turned to face him. “I can’t feel it, but

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
