Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 145
While the advertisements played on the screen, Rebecca noticed that Benjamin was looking at her instead of looking at the screen.She acted like she didn’t notice it, but then a minute passed, and he was still at it. She couldn’t act anymore. Turning her head, she looked at him. “Is something wrong?”Benjamin lifted his hand and gently stroked her cheek with his tentative fingertip.Her eyes closed, and she could feel his touch all the more. It felt like he was probing for something. As his finger moved along her jaw, her lips pursed. When the fingertip reached the chin, her lips and chin together trembled.He curled his finger in.She slowly opened her eyes, looking flushed and slightly happy. Her expression made her look even more beautiful. Would there be a more perfect time to kiss? He felt really tempted to kiss her. Rebecca was also licking her lips, trying to cope with the situation.Alfred got out of his seat and walked away. (Dammit. I really wanted to watch the movie. I gues

Rebecca tried calling her dad, but his number was busy all the time. She apologized to Benjamin and walked out of the theater. He said he would accompany her, but she said it was her family issue, so he couldn’t tag along with her.If only her family also trusted him like she did, how wonderful his married life would have been?Meanwhile, seeing the audience leave the theater, ranting about how crappy the production values were, Mina laughed like a hyena on drugs.“I’m glad I didn’t watch it,” she boasted.“Shouldn’t you be thanking me?” Shadow asked. “If not for me, you would have suffered like the audience.”“Hmph! Don’t try your luck with me, boy,” Mina glared at him before leaving, as she had to follow Rebecca.Shadow went over to Benjamin and sat on his bike. “Is the movie really that bad, my lord?”“It was really engaging for the first fifteen minutes, but then…” Benjamin shook his head. “The quality turned horrible. I think someone who’s envious of Jacob did this.”“Maybe it’s

“What the hell happened here?” Steve and many other police who arrived at a private golf course built in the middle of a forest were shocked by what awaited them. A bloody scene they had never seen before.Hundred men were littered around the field along with bikes and other vehicles parked here and there.Some were hacked to death. Some were decapitated. Some had their limbs severed. This was without a doubt the most gruesome scene he had ever seen.He bent down and observed one of the dead men, lying on the grass, shocked and his eyes wide open and full of horror. “The fear in those eyes… He must have seen others die around him. He must be utterly stunned to the point his eyes stayed open even after death.” Steve began sweating without realizing.Some other police recognized a few of those men. “These guys are street thugs from all around the city. Most of them have multiple murder and rape charges against them.”Steve’s brows knitted together. “Why were such bastards roaming freely
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 148
After the most horrible day of his life, Jacob didn’t sleep for long and woke up early the next day. He had always been a fighter, and he didn’t let the El Man disaster defeat him. His family expressed their sympathies, which was the only positive thing that had happened in the past twenty four hours.He began working hard to make things right, but the main actress of the El Man movie came forward and publicly stated that Jacob harassed him both mentally and physically. This led to a chain of confessions from other female actresses from Jacob’s previous films.This whole issue not only made Jacob’s life difficult, it made Selena’s life difficult to the point she couldn’t even attend her shoots. There were some audio leaks of Jacob flirting with the actresses, so whether he actually slept with them or not, Selena didn’t even want to talk about it with him.After that, nobody in the Sterling villa was talking with Jacob. Selena didn’t even let Kathy go near Jacob anymore. However, what

There was a wine glass in one bottle and a wine bottle in the other hand. There was no time for Benjamin to react the moment Jane grabbed his face out of nowhere. Moreover, before he could even comprehend why she suddenly lay hands on his face, she was upon him like a wind washing all over him.Her lips firmly pressed into his lips as she used all the momentum she could muster. Her eyes were closed, but his eyes weren’t. His eyes were far from closing. His heart jumped into his throat as shock shook his soul.Shadow who had been sitting on the edge of the couch watched with his mouth wide-open and all the half-chewed nuts up for view.Unlike Rebecca who never kissed anyone before on the lips, Jane was a supreme expert as far as kissing was considered. Benjamin’s spine bent backward in response, but she kept pressing forward, sucking his lips into her mouth so she could then force her tongue into his mouth.Benjamin’s hands dropped the bottle and the glass before pushing her away so ha

The next morning. Jane woke up in a good mood almost like a dog with two tails. “I had all these sweet dreams of being with Benjamin. Too bad I didn’t get to kiss him well because of his mustache. If I get another opportunity again, I won’t miss it. I will make sure he will fall for me, hehe.” She prepared coffee and walked out of her room, whistling to herself, only to see Donovan and Jasmine kissing by the stairs. She was stunned for a second, but then her eyes gained blood pretty fast. “What the hell are you doing in a public place?” she howled and splashed the hot coffee in their faces. “Kya!” Jasmine screamed in pain, but Donovan bore it. “This is my apartment, so if I see this again, I’ll kick you out,” she warned Jasmine. Both Jasmine and Donovan went into their room. “Why didn’t you beat her?” Jasmine yelled at him. “Just one slap would have been enough for that bitch.” “This is her apartment, so let’s not unnecessarily complicate things.” “Unnecessarily? She splashed

Arlo was in a movie theater, watching the original version of El Man. A pitying smile crept up onto his face. “If this version had been released, it would have probably shaken the world. Too bad, it didn’t.”Blackbear was standing behind his seat. It was a private screening, so only those two were present right now.“Trying to do two things at once will make one fail in both,” Blackbear remarked. “Not only did he try to produce two big movies, but he also got too greedy and wanted to release the films by himself. Naturally, he made a lot of enemies, and that made things easier for us.”“Mm, so what did you want to talk about?” asked Arlo glancing back at Blackbear who seemed to have suffered some wounds.“One of our customers asked me to spoil a girl’s name.”“So?”“That girl is… Rebecca Sterling.”“Who’s this customer?”“The foreign pro-wrestler.”“Ah, Don something.”“Yes, sir. Donovan. That’s the guy. What do you want me to do?”“Well, things are just getting interesting,” Arlo rub

Rebecca went to Ducksbelly restaurant where she had told Benjamin to bring Jane along. However, to her surprise and shock, only Jane was waiting at the table, oblivious to the fact that it was Rebecca who set up the whole thing.“Benjamin…” Rebecca’s heart played in a strange rhythm. “He’s not here?” she hid behind a waiter and dialed Benjamin. “Hello, where are you?”“I’m really sorry, Rebecca,” answered Benjamin in a low voice. “My friend’s grandmother died, so I had to come here and help her.”There was nothing Rebecca could say afterward.“What do you two need me for anyway, right? You two have fun. I’ll call you later. Bye,” Benjamin said before hanging up the call.“This guy… what a trouble he’s putting me through,” she took a deep breath before entering Jane’s view, completely grabbing her attention.Before Jane wondered what Rebecca was doing at the restaurant, Rebecca sat down at their table and said, “I’m the one who called you for a meeting.”Jane’s tongue kept poking her i
