Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 857
“This is no ordinary night. Look at the sky, the stars are blessing, the moon is smiling, and the world is celebrating a love story of its own,” a journalist who was a good friend of Selena was talking to the camera. “Jacob and Selena Sterling are still in deep love with each other, so there was just no way they would let a milestone go uncelebrated. Let’s go and talk to Selena’s eldest laughter, who’s quite a looker herself.”She came over to Rebecca who was running away from the camera. But the journalist didn’t give up. She chased her and intercepted her.“Just a few questions, Ms. Rebecca,” she said. “Your mother who’s in her fifties without wrinkles or gray hair, told us that this was a surprise party set up by you. You must really love your parents, right?”“Who doesn’t love their parents?” Rebecca was looking away from the camera.“Haha, please look toward the camera,” the journalist chuckled. “You can’t be shy when your mother is one of the greatest actresses this world has ev

The journalist and the cameraman ran away from Jane’s punch-packed story. If Rebecca hadn’t stopped her, Jane would have chased them to the streets.“Do you realize what you’ve done? All the people who were watching it live would have thought of you as a fool and a comedian!” Rebecca blurted angrily.“I don’t care about what strangers think about me, Rebs,” Jane wrapped her arm around Rebecca’s neck. “They were troubling you, so I took care of them. If they come again, I’ll do it again.” She acted like she was drunk. “I know you’re going through tough times, but sometimes things have to get worse before they get better. I’m sure good days are ahead of you, my friend.”“Stop the drama. The camera is no longer focused on us!” Rebecca hissed at her.“I know, but I also know that you’re sad,” Jane said. “Ever since the party started, your brothers hadn’t greeted you. It’s like they have demoted themselves to relative status. I’m sure you’re saddened by it.”Rebecca pursed her lips a littl

In the end, Andrew was buried underground, though not as much as Samuel got buried before.“Do you guys realize what you’ve done!” Samuel was growling in pure anger, feeling literal chills down his spine. “He is the president of the country! How can you do this to him?”“If you miss your dad so much, then why don’t you share the grave with him?” Jacob began to push Samuel toward the grave, but Samuel backed away.He was feeling really weak now, which was why he wasn’t buried again as he might really die this time.“You’ve got a role to play, Samuel,” Selena said. “You will go out to the front yard and greet the guests and act like everything is fine. As long as you’re out there in their faces, they won’t think of Andrew. We can slowly send the guests off one by one. Until then, you better stick to the script. Or you’ll be put back in your grave. You understand?”“I do,” Samuel was crying like a weak woman right now. “I will do anything, so just let me go home.”It was disgusting to s

Veronica and Akash were talking with Rebecca, and she thanked Akash for bringing her sister back safely.“I’m not a kid, sis,” Veronica retorted. “I had many guys chasing me while you were still wondering why the moon is following you!”“You shouldn’t talk like that in front of your husband,” Rebecca twisted her ear.“Aw!”Akash laughed. “My eyes feel so satisfied now. My parents and I couldn’t do anything to her even though she’s made things difficult for us. So, it’s good to see her get put in her place.”Veronica gave him a side eye, as if telling him she’d deal with him after they would get to the room.Akash’s heart thudded against his ribcage. “I-I was just joking, of course.” He looked around. “By the way, where’s Brother Benjamin?”“Mm?” Rebecca looked at him. “Benjamin, or Benyamin?”“Akash, it was Benyamin, and he’s no more,” Veronica said. “Did you forget it already?”Akash’s expression changed. He realized he shouldn’t have said that. “I’m sorry, sister-in-law.”“It’s fine

Even after the party ended and all the guests left, Selena was nervous because the security detail members were still in the villa.Uzza had told her she’d take care of them, but she hadn’t done anything yet.As if the tension she had wasn’t enough, Veronica and Akash entered the building, holding each other’s hands.Selena immediately frowned. “Veronica, I’m glad that you returned, but why did you return with that trash?”“Mom, he’s not trash,” Veronica politely responded. “And I’m not a child anymore to run circles around you.” She locked her arm around Akash’s arm. “It’s time for me to run circles around my husband.”Selena felt the brain in her head boiling and bubbling. “Just when I thought I could be happy after Trashmin died, you brought this trash into the house. Didn’t you see how many esteemed guests came to the party tonight? There were many millionaires and billionaires among them. Your so-called husband is not even qualified to clean their boots!”Both Akash and Veronica

The next morning.Rebecca came out to the balcony while brushing her teeth. She rarely came out of her room while brushing. Today she was feeling tired and sleepy, so she didn’t care about such things.She saw Kathy sending Samuel off, and Samuel seemed to be very happy and enamored by Kathy. He was even waving his hand off.Rebecca felt her eyes bleeding from what she was watching.“Ah, what have you done, Mom…” Rebecca could still feel pity for Kathy. “Are you going to stoop to any level to get what you want? What are you planning to do with Samuel Sehla that you forced Kathy to sleep with? You were initially planning to trick Andrew, but that didn’t work out, so you shifted your target to Andrew’s son instead.”Disgust filled her eyes.“Why are most men like this? Whenever they see a decent-looking woman, they forget about their wife and children back home. How can they ruin their family life with their own hands?”The more she thought about, the more frustrated she got.As the sun

Selena woke up and was waiting for Uzza to come out of her room. She was reading a newspaper in the living room on the first floor, when she saw Vlad passing by while sipping something from a packet.“What the… is that a blood bag?” Selena’s heart shook for a second.“I-It’s grape juice, Grandma,” Vlad was startled by her but quickly replied.“Grape juice? Since when are they selling grape juice in plastic bags?” Selena asked. “Bring that over.”Vlad shook his head and ran to his room.“This little…” Selena frowned. “He’s acting strange. Then again, he’s always been strange. It’s not autism, but it’s something else for sure. We should get both him and Mercie checked. It’s one thing if they’re strange as kids, but if they keep acting like this even after growing up, it’ll be troublesome.”Just then,Veronica came and sat down next to her mom and took the newspaper from her hand.“What’s with that attitude?” Selena coldly glanced at her. “Are you losing respect for your mom after you ma

In the heart of Rachel Hill, which was part of a vibrant city, the sun painted the sky with strokes of orange and pink.“The sunset from this rooftop isn’t half bad,” Rye commented while Uzza was sipping on coconut water next to her.“This is nothing compared to the views we get at our home, though,” Uzza responded. “But have you noticed the change in the moon last night?”“Yeah, it was…” she looked to her right and saw a drone disguised as a bird flying in their direction. With a little squinting of her eyes, she caused the drone to lose control and crash into a tree.The surveillance department people of the government who were controlling the drone were shocked by it. “What just happened? We were zooming on that absurdly large villa, and then… the signal was gone. We lost control over the drone, too.”“What kind of people are in that villa?”“They can keep the president buried in their backyard, so they’re no joke.”Using the heat signatures, they could tell that Andrew was buried

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
