Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 820
In the middle of the night, Rye who was lying on the bed opened her eyes because she couldn’t feel Benjamin’s presence anymore. “Where did he go at this hour?” She didn’t think he’d leave the villa and go somewhere. “What was so important? Mm?” She could hear Selena’s voice coming from her room.Selena was talking with some woman on a video call. “Even you want me to marry that old fuck? How can you talk so crazily?”“I mean good, Selena,” the other woman spoke calmly. She was over eighty years old and had a permanent scar on her cheek. She looked abnormally pale.“What good? How can I marry that guy? That’s out of question,” Selena stuck to her belief. “He’s just a president. He’s just a tool for the big organizations and the bankers and the secret families… which is why I’m calling you. Didn’t you owe me all those years ago, Madam Biscuit? I never asked you anything before. All I’m asking now is to control this barbaric dog that is Andrew. It’s not a hard thing for you to do.”“I do

The entrance gate of the castle that was made of heavy iron was knocked three times.Who would knock on the door in the middle of the night? Naturally, many men were alerted, and they readied their guns. Four men came to the door and slid open the peeping hole first and took a look at the person standing outside where it was dimly lit. Without even asking anything, he pointed the gun and shot multiple times.Eight bullets, to be precise.However, the person was still standing.“Kekeke. Did he die while standing? That’s rare,” the men were laughing, but then the heavy iron door suddenly broke open and crashed into the four men and took them flying with it for dozens of meters, leaving everyone shocked. They all turned to look toward the entrance when Benjamin entered.The dozen men in black hoods were still on the wall and did not move. “H-He was supposed to be at the Sterling villa. How did he get here so fast?” the leader of these dozen men was about to move, but Benjamin uttered, ‘st

At around 4:30 in the morning, in the Sterling villa.While everyone was sleeping well in their rooms, Selena was the only one unable to even catch forty winks.She was drinking wine. It had been a long time since she opened a wine bottle in her room. After many years, she once again started drinking in her room.“Almost every job has become such a thankless profession,” Selena hissed. “There’s no right or wrong in the adult world, only pros and cons. Life has become like business nowadays. There’s no point in trying to live with dignity and nobility like a saint in this cruel world.”Selena had sacrificed so much already for her children and for her family. She felt like she had suffered enough and has reached a breaking point.Andrew was literally smothering her from every angle, but nobody was helping her. How long could she stand alone, demanding justice? Would fighting back be worth it when justice was in Andrew’s hands now?“I don’t think I can make it happen…”Despite what Jaco

Rebecca woke up early that morning, thanks to Jane hijacking the space on her bed. She didn’t like how Jane was sleeping so deeply after ruining her sleep, so she pinched her cheek and woke her up.“Ow, why did you do that?” Jane looked utterly baffled. Her cheek felt it was burning. “It hurts.”“Just felt it.”“Huh?” Jane also tried to pinch Rebecca’s cheek, but Rebecca wrestled with her. Jane couldn’t do what she wanted, so she ended up biting Rebecca’s arm, making her cry out loud.Rye, who was reading the newspaper in the living hall, could hear them. “What are they doing just after waking up?”“Haha, it’s definitely good to be young,” Uzza chortled. “You don’t feel the back pain and the stiffness after waking up.”“Don’t talk like you’re old.”“I’m not young anymore, though,” Uzza said.Rye didn’t like hearing that from the woman who didn’t have children so she could take better care of Rye after her mother died. Uzza was still at an age where she could still give birth if she wa

At around nine in the morning.There were many guests visiting the Sterling villa and were greeting Jacob. Selena knew that most of them were rivals and enemies to Andrew, which was also why she treated them well.The fact that Jacob escaped from Andrew’s clutches had already begun to spread in the underground circles, so many people came to the Sterling villa, either directly or through connected people to make sure of that.Rye was surprised by the number of people that were visiting Jacob. Most of them were new faces, but there were some old faces, too.“So these guys all want to use whatever power Jacob used to escape from Andrew. Is that it?” Rye looked at Uzza.“Can you blame them, though?” Uzza asked her back. “If they didn’t think that Selena and Jacob were capable by themselves, they probably wouldn’t have bothered to come here. Only strong people can have strong connections. If Jacob and Selena don’t stand strong now, most of these people wouldn’t even bother to contact them

In one of Andrew Sehla’s superyachts.Andrew just finished killing Luther’s lover and brother for disappointing him. He dropped their dead bodies in the pool and watched the crocodiles eat them.Still, Andrew didn’t look happy.“How the hell did they manage to get Jacob? I haven’t received any information on who helped him escape, either.”Just then Andrew remembered the time when he was warned to not mess with the Sterling family because of those that were backing them.“I didn’t think too much about it back then, but now, I must know who’s helping them,” Andrew thought.Just then, his assistant Kong came to him. “Boss, you received an invitation for the anniversary of Jacob and Selena Sterling.”Andrew was both surprised and annoyed to hear that. “To think they’d send me the invitation… just where are they getting this courage from? If I don’t go, it’ll send the wrong message to others. And I also still don’t know what happened to my son.”“It’s in two days, Boss. If you want to go,

Rebecca and Jane were sitting on the balcony for the past hour or so.“Some of those men are looking in your direction,” Jane said. “Are you sure you don’t want to go and talk to them? They seem interested in you.”“Their interest is like passing wind,” Rebecca indifferently said. “It’s a waste of time to even entertain them.”“How can you say that without even talking to them? You talk like you used to in the past,” Jane snorted. “Is your heart growing cold again after Benyamin died?”“I’m not that narrow-minded, Jane,” Rebecca assuredly replied while keeping her gaze on Benjamin. “I’m not blaming these men, but I’m just saying that they’re not worth my time.” (He’s not looking in my direction at all. Maybe, what Jane said isn’t true? She must be trying to trick me into talking with him or something?)“Whew…” Jane waved her hand before her face. “Is it just me, or the sun feels hotter to you these days?”Rebecca looked up at degrees and observed. “It’s not just hotter but whiter, too

Jane was driving the car, and she seemed excited because it had been a while since she drove Rebecca’s car. Now, she was showing her improved driving skills to her friend. When she skidded the car to take a U-turn, Rebecca’s heart nearly stopped.“Are you trying to kill us?” Rebecca couldn’t take her hand off her chest.“Hehe. How are my upgraded driving skills?” Jane grinned with amusement. “I learned a few tricks from Steve. Your car makes it easier to execute. As expected of Porsche. Classic cars are much better than the new models.”Rebecca opened the door and stepped out of the car. They were currently on a bridge running across a canal. She stood by the edge and looked into the distance.“What are you thinking so deeply about?” Jane joined her with two cups of sliced mangoes.“My family needs support from me now more than ever, but I don’t even have a job now,” Rebecca said.“You’ve been helping them and enduring a lot for them over the years,” Jane opined. “So, I think it’s tim

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
