Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 866
In the end, Rebecca and Jim walked home together.They didn’t know that Louis was following them from a distance. He had always been following them, even before Rebecca bumped into the big man. However, he didn’t want to interfere unless it was absolutely necessary.“It feels quite strange to see Rebecca and everyone remembering the son-in-law as Benyamin and not Benjamin,” Louis thought. “I feel tempted to tell her everything, but what if it does more harm than good?”“The girl who yelled at you at the shopping mall,” Rebecca asked Jim. “She was rich and good looking. Why didn’t you accept her proposal?”“Her attitude cannot be matched,” Jim shook his head just thinking about it. “Your family is also rich, but you are walking with me now. Eleanor would never do something like that. She acts like stepping foot on the ground without footwear is cheap. She said she wants to go on international trips every month, and during the trips, she doesn’t even want to enter a cab. She wants priva

Rebecca thought Selena already had her plate full of things needed to deal with, so the last thing she expected from her mother was to arrange a date, not with one man but with two men on the same day.Rebecca got so frustrated and angry she just didn’t know what to do. If it was in the past, she would have just completely ignored her mother, but she really felt offended this time.Nevertheless, she smiled and said, “Mom, send me their numbers and other details. I’ll meet them tomorrow.”“Oh, thank you, my little pigeon,” Selena gave her a quick hug. She was expecting her daughter to give her a cold shoulder, so she was as happy as a clam at high water. “From here onward, you’re going to live a royal life. I promise.”Rebecca then went upstairs to her room.Veronica came to her mother with a bit of a shocked expression. “Did she really not complain about you setting up a date for her?”“Haha, she didn’t,” Selena rubbed her nose. “And you should watch and learn from her. She realized h

The next morning.A green lamborghini and a black ferrari stopped outside an open restaurant at the same time.Out of the green car, a 27-year-old long-haired youth stepped out. He was Brook Gray, the CEO of the Gray Corp with a turnover of 1.8 billion dollars last year.Out of the black car, a 19-year-old stylish young man stepped out. He was Lucas Moore, the new chairman of Moore Holdings with a revenue of over 25 billion dollars last year.Both the young men started staring at each other from the moment they stepped out of the car. Brook’s expression was a little icier compared to Moore’s expression.“What brought a Moore to a simple restaurant like this?” Brook snorted.“That’s my question,” Lucas calmly and confidently approached him. “You are the type who likes to show off. You wouldn’t come here unless it’s associated with a girl. Are you dating someone?”“You came here in a Ferrari, so you shouldn’t talk like you’re a humble guy,” Brook let out hot air through his nose before

“Hmph,” Brook put his goggles back on and walked away. “Farewell.”Rebecca looked at Lucas. “You should leave, too.”Lucas smiled and sat down. “Now, only the two of us are left. I don’t mind spending a few more minutes with you.”“What makes you think I’ll change my mind?” Rebecca asked him.“I’m not expecting you to change your mind right away,” Lucas replied. “I’m not like Brook who keeps a list of lines to use when flirting with ladies, but I’m the type who seeks personality more than anything else. I was inspired by the fact that you rose to fame in the designing field in a very short time. You became one of the highest paid in your field. Though some of your designs are quite revealing, I also noticed that you don’t wear such clothing anywhere. I found that very interesting. I’m trying to find a woman with depth and good understanding skills. I think you fit the bill.”“You’ve got it wrong, Mr. Lucas,” Rebecca kept her cool, knowing that she offended Lucas by telling him to come

“Who are you?” Lucas asked the young man, Benjamin, trying to be calm and composed even though he’s clearly upset.“Aren’t you slow in picking up the clues!” Benjamin retorted. “Dude, I’m the one she’s interested in. So, it’s time for you to get back to your Ferrari.”Lucas looked at Rebecca as if waiting for her to say something.Rebecca nodded. “You should go.”Lucas reluctantly stood and hated the fact that Benjamin was waving his hand, seeing him off.After Lucas left, Rebecca shifted her gaze to Benjamin. “What was that all about?”“I just saved your time, and your return gift is a cold look,” Benjamin was all too familiar with this sharp, numbing look she had going right now. Nevertheless, he returned her a friendly, pleasant smile.Rebecca didn’t know what to say. “Mr. Benjamin…”“You can just call me Benjamin.”“You are one of those guys who can deal with almost anything with a smile on your face, right?” she said.“No. When I can kill someone or something, I don’t smile,” Ben

The Two Way restaurant was a charming little place nestled on a cobblestone street, its warm lights spilling onto the sidewalk like golden honey.The faces of the people sitting at the tables glowed beautifully like they would under morning’s sunlight.“In the past, my friend Jane has made a list of potential suitors for me,” Rebecca said. “After much deliberation, I decided to give it a try. I met those men at a small cafe during weekends. I still remember it very vividly. The first guy’s name was Max, I believe. His shoes were brighter than his teeth. He probably rented those shoes and clothes somewhere.“And then there was a guy with such a big beard that I thought squirrels might be living in there. The more they talked, the less interested I felt. I didn’t click with any of them.”“Then what about me?” Benjamin asked.“You have a girlfriend, and you’re looking for another girl,” Rebecca said. “That’s a whole new level of craziness. How did you even think I would believe your word

Rebecca was walking back home, and Benjamin was walking with her. She was walking fast, so he said, “I can’t walk that fast. Can we slow down a little bit?”Why would she slow down when she wanted to get home quickly so that she didn’t have to see his face or his smile anymore?Still, Rebecca slowed down just a bit not because he asked her but because her eyes caught the design of a girl passing by. She was wearing a t-shirt with a cat wearing goggles, and the bold slogan underneath: Too Good To Purrsuade!Benjamin noticed that. “She seems to like cats more than men. The chances of her getting to her forties as a single woman with four cats for company are not low.”Rebecca almost cracked a complex smile while also wondering if he was directing those words toward her as well.“Do you like cats, Miss Rebecca?” he asked.“No, I hate anything with fur on it,” Rebecca replied.“Hate is a strong word. Why do you hate them?”“Well, hate isn’t the correct word, but I just don’t want them nea

“It must be hard for the mama to feed so many of her children,” Benjamin pitied the waterfowl. “Do you want to feed them?”“The mother knows how to feed her children. Why should we disturb it?” Rebecca blurted and kept walking.There were people who were taking pictures of the duck and the ducklings. Rebecca might have tried to feed it if she was alone, but she didn’t want any unnecessary attention.Benjamin knew how soft Rebecca was deep down. She was the woman who waited at the doorstep of the villa for hours for her mother to come home everyday.So, Benjamin tried to stir her up a little. “Look at those people. They are all taking pictures, but none of them are feeding those poor things. I guess the mama duck and her babies are going to go to sleep on a half or an empty stomach tonight.”Rebecca stopped after taking a few steps. “Tsk,” she looked through her handbag and found four dollar bills. She went to the nearby grocery store. Different types of bread were on the shelves. She

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 Benja

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

While Benjamin and Rebecca were about to go separate ways, Elizabeth came over to them.While smiling a bit awkwardly on the surface, she asked, “Brother Benjamin, my bank card is having some issues. Can you please pay for the piano? I’ll pay you the money soon as my bank issue gets resolved.”Rebecca’s eyes slightly widened because she had seen Elizabeth trick so many people with the similar tactic. In fact, Rebecca herself had fallen prey to this move a few times long ago.“No problem,” Benjamin took out a card. It was a platinum-coated card with the symbol of ‘W’ on it, made with diamonds.“Wow, are these real diamonds?” She was shocked. “What kind of bank gives these cards? I would like to have this, too.”“It’s a secret bank known as Eternity Bank, so it won’t be easy to get you one card, but I will try,” Benjamin told her.“Thank you. You really are so kind,” Elizabeth smiled happily. “May I know the password for this?”“It doesn’t have a password.”“Oh…” Elizabeth didn’t quite

Once Benjamin walked out of the room, Rebecca met him and asked in a low voice, “What did you tell him?”“I did what I could,” Benjamin shrugged. “I’m not sure how to handle this type of a situation, but I think it’s something he has to change from the inside. No matter how much we say, he won’t change unless that spark of change comes from within.”“So, we should just create an atmosphere that will make him self-realize and then get rid of his bad habit, huh.”“That would be anything but easy, though, because we never know what works and what doesn’t.”“You are right, but we can’t just give up on him. Even though I don’t like Elizabeth, I can’t ignore her kids who grew up right before my eyes,” Rebecca replied. “I told my brother to not give them mobiles when they’re young, as they might get addicted to games, which they did… But now, they are in that age where hormones will make them want to watch new things. If we let them get out of hand, they will be ruining their careers and thei
