A few hours back.

Benjamin was driving the motorhome, and they were yet to arrive at the beach. Selena started reading a book after talking for an hour or so with her daughters. Veronica just watched videos on her mobile, but Rebecca took a peek at the book her mother was intently reading.

She read a song ‘The Sweetest Lover’ sung by a character called Stussy Junksman.

“Sweetest

Is

He

Who

Takes your heat

But still looks neat

And gives you treats

Better than the sweets

And never mistreats or cheats

For he owns a well of love

That never depletes.”

“That’s pretty deep, Mom. Which book is it from? Let me see the cover,” Rebecca said.

“It’s from a fantasy novel,” replied her mother, refusing to fold the book while she was still reading.

Coming back to the present.

As Benjamin closed his eyes and waited for her to kiss him, she remembered the song, and her heart swelled, for she thought it fit Benjamin perfectly. Though he wasn’t really friendly with her family, he always treated her like a

    Selena came riding a beach camel and poured foul water on the flames of love burning between the young couple with her vengeful words.They could have ignored her and kissed. They were both indeed desperate, but they didn’t want their first most intimate moment when they were both sane and sober to be spoiled with Selena’s words playing in the background.Afterward, Selena made sure to stick pretty close to Rebecca, so close it even bothered her daughter.“I wanted to wear a bikini and spend some time under the evening sun, but your worthless husband spoiled everything,” Selena didn’t look like she would stop badmouthing Benjamin anytime soon. “This is the worst beach trip I’ve ever had. Period.”“Bikini?” Benjamin’s expression turned unpleasant. “Why don’t people dress their age?”“Shut up, Trashmin!” Selena barked. “There are still millions of men who would die to see me in a bikini.”Benjamin felt like vomiting, further enraging her. “Millions of morons, you mean. Look at Rebecca,

    The next morning.Selena woke up to hear the bad news that Rebecca was also sleeping in the men’s dorms. This was a shock to her.“Just what did he do for her to become like this?” her gut twisted. She felt like she was losing his daughter. “Killing some parrots clearly wasn’t enough for him. I wish he had a family. Then I would have been able to toy with him.”When she walked out to the balcony with a cup of cream coffee, a camel was eating the grass on the lawn.“What the fuck?” her eyes sprang out of her sockets. Just then, the camel pooped on the grass, making her vomit out whatever that was in her mouth.At the same time, Rebecca was standing at the entrance of the dorms, with her eyes shut by Benjamin. He was standing behind her.“What did you want to show me that you closed my eyes like this?” she curiously asked.“You will see soon,” he said, “so keep walking.”He made her walk until she was close enough to the camel, and then he moved his hands, revealing the tall, impressive

    Rebecca was so worried she didn’t even enter the villa and stayed at the dorms. The change in her was obvious enough to easily see.“Who is this George?” Benjamin asked her, even though he thought it wasn’t a good idea to remind her of the past. He wanted to hear from her own mouth.“He’s Elizabeth’s younger brother,” Rebecca said with a frown. “He smokes, drinks, gambles, and visits strip clubs. There’s nothing good about anything he does. He’s utter filth. He and his sister together tried to marry either me or Veronica off to him, but we both refused. However, if Brother Shawn and Dad had no issues, I might have been forced to marry him, though I don’t know what I would have done if things had gone that far. Luckily, Dad was completely against the idea of marrying me or Veronica to someone as useless as him. Mom also objected to it.“Still, he kept trying, and one day, he dared to touch Veronica inappropriately. She slapped him, and he lost his cool that day and slapped her back. Af

    Breakfasts in the Sterling family generally included a plant and egg-based diet. Today was no different either.Kathy had prepared the usual toast, oatmeal, coffee, and pancakes. All were simple things that even the middle class people could afford.Jacob’s expression softened after seeing the breakfast. He was a simple man with simple tastes, and this menu reminded him of his old times. He glanced at Terry and said in a positive tone, “Why don’t we have some breakfast first?”Terry didn’t say anything, but his eyes were still very much red.Jacob put his hand on Terry. “You haven’t slept or eaten anything in 2 days. Your daughter wouldn’t want this for you, I’m sure.”Terry frowned and said, “Where’s your son-in-law? Benjamin?” he looked at George. “Is it him?”“No.” Jacob’s gaze turned sharp as he looked at George who couldn’t look back at Jacob. He then glanced at Benjamin who was still standing by the kitchen door. “That guy over there is Benjamin.” He had no idea why Terry was so

    As Jacob strode toward him, folding his sleeves, Benjamin’s heart started beating fast. “D-Don’t believe what he said, Father-in-law,” he tried to explain. “He was lying.”“Shut up,” Jacob put all his strength into his hand as he slapped Benjamin. The sound echoed throughout the hall. Almost all the eyes sitting at the dining table brightened from what they saw. “A man who lost his daughter recently would come all this way if there’s nothing going on? What reason would a man of his stature have to lie about trash like you? What would he earn from it?”Benjamin covered his cheek that turned red from the slap. “Trust me, please. He’s lying.”“Shut your damn mouth!” Jacob roared and raised his hand for another slap.Kathy had already run upstairs to inform Selena.Elizabeth was leaking out a wonderful smile after a long time. Roshan looked quite shocked, for he couldn’t believe that his uncle Benjamin who always chased after their aunt like a dog would be having an affair with another wo

    “Benjamin!” Rebecca rushed to him, ignoring the pain in her ankle.Shawn cut her off. “Hold it, Rebecca.”“Brother, move!” she roared and tried to get past him, but he grabbed her hand and forcibly pulled her away.“Listen to me first, and then you are going to beat your husband yourself,” Shawn stated.“What nonsense are you talking about?” Rebecca’s eyes were still on Benjamin who was on the ground. “How could you beat him like that? Are you even human?” Tears escaped her eyes.“It isn’t just your brother who hit him,” Jacob said. “I did, too.”Rebecca’s face froze.“Your worthless husband is having an affair with the chief justice’s daughter,” Jacob said.“W-What are you talking about?” Rebecca didn’t believe it.“The chief justice’s daughter died unfortunately,” Jacob continued speaking in an annoyed tone. “Or I would have brought her here to prove it. Still, her father’s words are more than enough. There’s no reason for the chief justice to lie!”“Don’t listen to them, Rebecca,”

    Veronica woke up late only to get shocked after finding out Benjamin was gone. She ran to her sister’s room to see how she was doing and to talk to her.When she entered her room, George was talking to her. She froze upon seeing him. “What are you doing here?” she immediately got angry.“Ah, Veronica,” George sounded surprised, and his lips played a familiar smile that sent shivers up her spine. “It’s good to finally SEE you.” His eyes took in all the skin she was showing at the moment.“Get out of this room,” she ordered. “I want to talk to my sis.”“Sure, sure,” he quietly walked out without saying another word.Veronica sat down on the bed, next to Rebecca who looked dull and poor. Her face had gone pale; her head hung forward, and her shoulders were curled in. She appeared small and so vulnerable at the moment.“Are you okay?” Veronica put her hand gently on Rebecca’s shoulder, and her sister emotionally hugged her. Her sister’s eyes were red from crying, and her cheeks were still

    The next morning.In Pure Waters bar.“He’s been drinking since yesterday,” one of the barmaids was talking with other maids. “He has drunk way past the limit. I told him to leave, but he isn’t listening. At this rate, he’ll die.”“Let’s report to the manager, then.”The maids then went and complained to the owner. He brought a few bodyguards with him and politely talked with Benjamin. But he wasn’t even listening, so the bodyguards lifted him up and brought him out and tossed him out on the streets.“You kept your bar open for the whole night, even after the allowed time limit,” Benjamin complained, “but you kick me out now?” he sniffled a little. “This is where I first met my wife. I only wanted to spend some time here, so let me in.”“Don’t make us beat you, mister,” the two tall and huge bodyguards warned Benjamin.“You picked the words right out of my mouth,” his gaze warned them in return.“You’re too drunk, but if you want a fight, we’ll give it to you,” one of the guards went

    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 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

    George saw Rebecca alone, waiting outside Roshan’s room. He used this opportunity to come up to her.“What are you doing here, Rebecca? Did Roshan cause some trouble again?” George was folding his sleeves. “Let me teach him a lesson.”“Stop!” Rebecca hit his shin bone with her foot. Because of her footwear, he cringed in pain. “Why do you assume things? I’m standing here just because I want to. Nothing else.”“You expect me to believe that?” George harrumphed. “You are such a bad liar. The day you brought some random guy into the house and said you loved him and married him, everyone else might have believed your words but I didn’t. There’s no way someone like you who’s so capable can fall in love, much less marry a pizza-delivery guy. Compared to him, I’m so much better!”“You are wrong, George,” Rebecca calmly and confidently replied. “Benjamin…” she lightly smacked her own head. “Ahem, I mean, Benyamin is a billion times better than you. He doesn’t bend his spine for money like you

    Rebecca knocked on a door.“Who is it?” Roshan asked from the inside, a hint of anxiety in his voice.“It’s me,” Rebecca replied. “Open the door. I’ll just have a quick few words with you, that’s all.”“A-Aunt, I don’t want to talk to you right now,” Roshan replied. “Please go.”“I’ll talk with him,” Benjamin told her in a low voice. Rebecca then walked away and stopped at a certain distance.A minute later, Benjamin knocked on the door.“Hey, I’m Benjamin,” he said. “Can I talk to you?”“No, I’m busy right now,” Roshan answered.“It’ll only take a minute,” Benjamin persisted. “I won’t bother you afterward.”“Tsk,” Roshan, annoyed, walked over to the door.Benjamin knocked on the door again.Roshan quickly opened the door with a hostile look. “What?”Benjamin smiled and stepped closer and put his arm around Roshans’s shoulder. He then shut the door from behind him and even locked it without looking back.“W-What are you doing?” Roshan nervously asked.Even Rebecca, who was outside, co
