“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

    Rebecca crashed onto the road. Had she not landed on her hand first, she would have gotten badly bruised if not injured.“These days, it’s become a fashion for bitches to bump into men and trap them into falling in love with them,” the big man who punched Rebecca down angrily barked and stepped closer. “If I don’t teach your kind a lesson, then my name is not—”Rebecca punched his face as he leaned forward to grab her.“Argh,” he backed away.Rebecca got up and quickly ran away.He chased her.Though there were some onlookers, none of them intervened.Rebecca took her mobile out to call Jane, but to her shock, the balance on her mobile finished. She quickly called the police and alerted them of her situation.Afterward, she ran into a shopping mall as there were many people there. She told the entrance guards that a man was harassing her.The guards stopped this man from entering the shopping mall, but he punched them and hurriedly entered the mall.He was panting but he looked angrie

    Benyamin and Rebecca came home in the Porsche.Rebecca looked happy, but Benyamin looked even happier. He was putting on a fake smile as Rye and Uzza were watching from the balcony.He waved his hand at them while Rebecca wasn’t watching.“The nerve of this guy….” Uzza’s jaw hardened. “Please tell me that Maara told Dahlia of the situation here.”“If Dahlia comes and sees what’s happening, all hell will break loose,” Rye opined. “She won’t just talk with him. She will destroy him.”“Yeah. I can see that. Dahlia is very kind in general, but when she gets angry, no one can stop her,” Uzza said.“If she sees Neel like this, she won’t just get angry. She’ll lose her mind. It’s hard to predict what she will do.”Uzza glanced at Rye. “Anyway, what was that back massage all about? Did Benjamin change his mind and give up on Rebecca?”Rye sighed deeply. “I wish that was the case, but he’s so fixated on the 40 day challenge. I was sitting on top of him at some point, and his lips didn’t even b

    Louis and Bella were having talks with the Queen’s cafe owner.The star-studded cafe buzzed with a low, melodic hum—the clinking of spoons against china, the murmur of conversations in English, French and many other languages, and the soft jazz drifting from a hidden speaker.Rain pattered lightly against the window, blurring the city lights into impressionistic streaks of color.Benyamin, his dark hair slightly damp from the drizzle, seemingly was captivated not by the view, but by the woman sitting across from him as she told him funny stories from her past.“I’m telling you the truth,” Rebecca said. “The pigeon Elizabeth bought ate the whole croissant right off the table. I’ve never seen anything like it. Elizabeth thought the maid ate the croissant when she wasn’t looking. It led to an argument, until Elizabeth saw the pigeon go for another food item.“After that day, she let the bird go, but that bird would return to Elizabeth’s window for food. She didn’t feed that bird at all,

    In the end, Rye didn’t kiss Benjamin. She got up from him and walked away.Benjamin still lay down on the bed.Rye’s scent was still in the air. It was also on his clothes. It was intoxicating, for sure, and he was finding it hard to fight the fleshly feelings that were stirring in him.Benjamin was not even thirty years old.He was near if not at the peak of his manhood, and it wasn’t easy to control the urge of a young man to let a woman’s scent affect him.On top of that, it had a familiar scent.All this made things quite difficult for him.Benjamin didn’t even move for a couple of minutes. Only after his body temperature and heartbeat went down, he got up from the bed.But before he could leave the room, Riley entered the room and shut the door.“W-What are you…” Benjamin was startled.“Hi, slickie,” Riley grinned with shyness and excitement as she approached him. “Can we have a quick, honest talk?”“No, we can’t,” Benjamin said. “Open the door, and let’s talk outside.” He was wa

    The first to get upstairs was Roshan followed by his sister Lisa. Riley and other youngsters were right behind.When they looked through the open door in the nearest room, they were all shocked to see Rye walking on top of Benjamin’s back and massaging him.Selena and others also saw what was going on, and the situation turned from a completely serious one into a jovial one.“Haha, what a cute, romantic couple,” Selena laughed heartily.Riley, however, didn’t like what she saw. She wished she was in Rye’s position. She wanted to be the one walking on Benjamin’s back. She couldn’t hide her jealousy which leaked through her eyes right now.“It’s been a while since we’ve done that,” Shawn whispered in his wife’s ears. “Shall we do it tonight?”Elizabeth laughed a little in response.Rebecca did not stay there for long. She walked away, and Benyamin followed her.“Are you feeling jealous of them?” he asked her.“Why would I? They’re lovers. It’s something obvious that they’d do that,” Reb

    A long silence filled the hall of the Sterling villa.The only person who was able to smile other than Rebecca and Benyamin was Lisa who was just excited that a wedding was going to happen. She could invite her friends and show off.“A-A wedding?” Selena’s heart hammered against her chest.In the past, Rebecca did not want to reveal to the outside world about her marriage. But now, she wants to announce to the whole world about her marriage?And that, too, when Selena’s fame was rising higher than ever?What was she supposed to tell the guests at the wedding if they were to ask questions about Benyamin?Should she tell them that her son-in-law was a pizza-delivery guy?Just thinking about it sent shivers up and down her spine.“Don’t make this a never-ending debate, Rebecca,” Selena’s voice grew thick very much. “I didn’t like that you married, but you promised me that you wouldn’t hold a function and publicly announce your relationship with him.”“I never promised anything like that,

    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
