Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 262
The sterling villa was popular in the city for many reasons. A famous producer, a legendary actress, and a phenomenal fashion designer lived in this place. But its name spread throughout the world in the past few days because of the party Ryan was hosting.While every country didn’t explicitly talk about it in the news or in political circles, it sure was the main topic discussed in the shadowy organizations that had been secretly ruling their countries.These were the real powerful people that not only controlled the politicians and rich businessmen but also manipulated the minds of the population to swing the way they wanted through schooling, media, and almost all possible mediums.Their ancestors were the ones who wrote history taught in schools. They dictated the flow of the world economy through artificial conflicts, wars, disease outbreaks, and many more.They were called the Ten Dragons, and they belonged to ten different countries. All of them together spearheaded the organiz

The whole of Rachel Hill was celebrating the occasion as sweets, pizzas, clothes, gift cards, and many other things were sent to every home as gifts. Everybody living there was renting the place, so they felt extremely happy when they received valuable gifts from the one who owned the hill.At the sterling villa, where almost every inch of the building was decorated with sparkling lights, Ryan was standing on the balcony, eating roasted nuts.“The guests started coming, Great Master,” Benyamin was standing a few feet beside him and sent him a mental message. “I still don’t understand why you arranged for such a huge party, calling guests from all around the world. Are we… going to reveal our identity to the world?”“Don’t think too much and stress yourself out, Benyamin,” Ryan shared some nuts with him. “If things work out for you, you’ll gain Rebecca.”“S-Stop joking, Great Master. It’s not even funny,” Benyamin lowered his head in guilt. Just then, Elizabeth and Dorothy entered the

“I’m so glad you recovered so fast from my father-in-law’s beatings,” Kismet purposely rubbed salt in Jacob’s wounds. He couldn’t help but angrily smile and said, “Please head inside.” Naida and Veronica briefly looked at each other. Naida was two years older than Veronica, so she naturally looked down on Veronica. “What a slutty dress. But I guess I shouldn’t have expected anything modest from the sterling family.” Veronica swallowed her anger for her father who kept looking at her, telling her to control herself. Akash handed the Sehla family a brown leather bag. “What’s this? A gift?” Sehla asked and received a nod. Katherine excitedly pulled the bag from her father. Kismet was busy observing the arrangements made for the party. Buffet, musicians, real instead of artificial plant decorations, carpet made of dark red flowers, animal dolls sitting up in the trees, mini fountains where wine and alcohol was served, and much more wonderful arrangements was up for view. Because the

While Rebecca seemed shocked at the new revelation that Ryan and his son Benyamin might be following her for months, Kismet was cursing George after seeing Rebecca still alive and looking as pretty as ever in a blend of ethnic wear that set her apart from other women.Kismet’s daughter, Naida, couldn’t take her eyes off Rebecca. Unlike Veronica who revealed most of her skin, Rebecca revealed only her diaphragm. Rebecca’s long see-through scarf sparkled under the lights and added to her beauty. Even though Naida’s scarlet outfit was fashionable, she felt inferior.“Where the hell is George? This useless bastard…” Kismet was so frustrated she would have shot George in the head if he was standing right before her.At the same time, inside the villa.George was inside a bathroom, making all kinds of noises with his butt more than he had ever made in his life with his mouth. He felt like his life was being drained down his ass. His stomach kept roaring, and his intestines kept swirling, ma

“You’re taking too long, Jane,” Steve complained while watching television in Jane’s apartment.“Just one more minute,” Jane replied. She was giving last touches to her eyelashes.“I don’t get it. I’m the one you’re supposed to look good in front of, right? Do you prepare for hours every time before meeting me as well?” he couldn’t help but ask.“You wouldn’t want to know.”“That means a no,” Steve sulked a bit. “By the way, when are your parents returning?”“When I told them about the party, they wanted to return as soon as possible, but they missed the flight because they were buying a suit for you.”“For me?” Steve snorted. “I won't buy it for a second.” He wasn’t particularly treated well by them, after all. He looked at Jane’s grandmother who was sitting right next to him and was also watching the television, but she glanced at him and saw that his foot was resting on the glass table. She immediately struck his foot with her walking stick. “Aw! What was that for?”Just then Jane

Jeff Druze, one the most charismatic presidents of all time, got out of the black hummer, and not just Jane and Steve, but even Jacob was also dumbstruck. When Jeff walked in with swag and shook Jacob’s hand with a charming smile, Jacob was bereft of speech. He didn’t know what he was saying. Time passed fast. Before he realized, Jeff had patted his shoulder and walked past him.When Akash and Veronica saw Jeff, their eyes bulged as much as a chameleon’s could. Jeff just waved at them as he went past them. Akash’s mouth was fully open, and he totally forgot about giving the gift bag to him.“I-Is that who I think it is?” Akash kept looking at Jeff.“Y-Yeah,” Veronica couldn’t find the words. She felt starstruck, which was a rare feeling for her as she grew up meeting many famous movie stars all the time.As Jeff entered the party grounds, everyone kept looking at him in disbelief. Was this really the president of the country? They weren’t sure. It could be an imposter, some thought, a

Jane and Steve entered the villa hand in hand. Porcius was right behind them, sniffing like a swine, already drooling at the thought of enjoying all the dishes that he would soon be able to eat for free.Was there anything better in the world than a free meal? No! Absolutely not! Porcius was a master of free-meals, which was one of his deep-rooted habits that helped him increase his savings.However, when Porcius saw Veronica, he forgot about the food and kept staring at her breasts. “Oi,” even when Akash called him, his gaze didn’t shift anywhere. It was as if he was lost in the world of lustful thinking.Veronica sprayed perfume in his face, and that finally brought Porcius back into reality.“Shameless,” Akash hissed.“Ahem,” Porcius tried to smile and grab the gift bag, but Akash didn’t give him. Porcius could only keep walking.Akash looked at Veronica. “Can’t you at least wear a scarf or something?”“You’re not my boyfriend anymore, so why don’t you mind your own business?” Vero

While Jane was in awe of the grandness of the party, Steve had already begun looking for clues regarding Benjamin. He didn’t ask anyone directly about Benjamin, but he used his police brain and kept trying to obtain as much information as he could.Recognizing Steve, the two mafia-guys, Cherry and Ferry, kept avoiding him and hid themselves from his view.Steve met Sasha and asked her, “Why are you standing alone, miss?”“I’m not a miss anymore,” Sasha showed him her ring.“No, I wasn’t trying to hit on you or anything,” Steve had to explain himself. “I was just wondering why you were standing alone, that’s all.”“I came here to meet Benjamin, the son-in-law of the Sterling family, “she replied. “But he’s not here. I asked the maids, too, and they said he ran away with a maid who used to work here in the past.”“Oh…” Steve got nothing new from her, so he excused himself. As he kept roaming, he saw Porcius goring on fish meat of all kinds, while talking to the female worker who was cle

“How are things with your family, brother?” Fiona asked.Selena raised an eyebrow. “You’re in a family that deals with real-estate, so you should already know how we’re doing.”“Haha, I do, but outside information can only be trusted so much,” Fiona responded. “Recently, we’ve worked hard on getting a marriage deal for Fiona. Her fiance owns a reputed sports agency that deals with covering all the popular international sports. He earns hundreds of millions every year, but his father is a tycoon in the alcohol industry. Their net worth is in tens of billions.”“Good for you and your daughter,” Jacob smiled.“By the way, Brother,” Fiona glanced at Veronica and Akash. “What does Veronica’s husband do?”Jacob’s expression slightly changed.Veronica frowned and looked at her mother who was looking back at her with a rather poker face.“He is staying at home for now,” Veronica said openly.“Pfft, he’s jobless?” Riley snorted. “Your taste is so bad, Veronica, not just in terms of finding a pa

Benjamin went to the first floor and waited in the hall until Rebecca left her room.Then he went to her room. The door was locked, but he solidified his energy in the keyhole and opened the door.He entered the room quietly and saw the water bottle on the table next to her desk. It was half-full.Benjamin took out the vial and poured a drop of water into the bottle while saying ‘I love you, Rebecca.’He entered the bathroom and poured a couple of drops in the bathtub while once more uttering the three words ‘I love you, Rebecca.”He was about to come out of the room, but then he stopped and then ended up leaking another drop of water on the pillow, and another on the blanket. “I love you, Rebecca.”“Hopefully, this will help,” he thought.Benjamin then hurriedly left the room and then went to the rooftop. He mixed a few more drops in each of the four water tanks, while saying the words out, “I love you, Rebecca.”He looked at the vial.Three fourths of it was finished.He put the via

CHAPTER 900
Despite Uzza, Rye, and Benjamin living in separate rooms, there were many guest rooms still available in the mighty Sterling villa, the best property on Rachel Hill.So, the families of Jacob’s siblings stayed in those rooms without any issue.But the problem was with the cousins, who were trying to show off. They acted arrogant and haughty with Veronica and even mocked Rebecca for the little hair she had on her head, not even bothering to wonder why exactly her hair was like that.Rebecca didn’t even bother talking to them, or sparing a word with them because she knew how selfish and self-centered these people were.Jacob and Shawn might have forgiven these people, but Rebecca couldn’t just act like nothing ever happened.She didn’t treat them badly, either. She just ignored them and minded her business.However, her cousin sisters got their eyes on Benyamin who was quite good-looking. Her cousin brothers were also unable to avert their eyes from Rye.Rye looked more like an exotic f

CHAPTER 899
So many people started visiting Sterling villa ever since Selena herself had leaked the news of her buying a lot of land and buildings in Aurora Hills.Selena was sitting on the balcony, with Veronica next to her.“Why has the traffic increased so much?” Veronica said, “I’m seeing so many cars come and go recently.”Selena somewhat smiled and sipped on cream coffee. “I wasn’t born rich, Veronica. My relatives didn’t even let my parents into their homes or invite us to their functions because we were poor as church mice.”“Stop joking, Mom,” Veronica smirked with amusement. “You look like a million dollars. I’m sure our relatives’ sons back then would have wanted to marry you.”“You’re not entirely wrong, but they didn’t want to marry me as much as they wanted to mess with me,” Selena said. “I still remember one guy telling me, ‘I may look ugly as hell, but I can show you heaven in bed.’”Veronica went silent in shock. She didn’t think her mother’s beauty would have brought such terrib

Delle was bringing food, three varieties, on a big plate.Rye intercepted and took the plate from her. She brought it to Benjamin and sat by him under the tree.The grass was cool, even though the breeze was warm.“You think I haven’t noticed that you weren’t eating anything since you made that 40-day promise?” Rye said. “You were just acting like you’re eating.”She broke the bread mixed with fruit and brought it closer to his mouth.He didn’t open his mouth.“Do you want me to stop eating just like you are doing?” Rye said.Benjamin, who was staring into the distance, glanced at her. “Is it possible to love and hate at the same time?”Rye pursed her lips together, not quite understanding why he asked such a question. “I was angry with the things you did. I am still angry, but I don’t hate you. So, if you really love someone, I don’t think you can hate them.”“If there is no hatred in his heart, then how is Neel able to do this to me?” Benjamin asked, a hint of pain laced through his

Rebecca and Benyamin had breakfast together.This nearly made Selena’s eyes bleed. She didn’t think she’d live a day like this.Watching them eating happily was like injecting poison into her body.While she loved seeing her daughter happy, she couldn’t spare any mercy on the man who tricked her daughter into marrying him.Even now, she was thinking in her heart, devising plans on how to separate her daughter and her husband.Having lost the mood to eat breakfast, she came to the backyard.Amber was preparing the background setting needed for the interview.“Where’s Kathy?” Selena asked.“S-She’s with Samuel Sehla, ma’am,” Amber hesitantly said.Selena’s gaze turned a little icy, but then she smiled. “I knew Kathy had it in her, but I didn’t think she’d be able to grab the attention of someone like Samuel Sehla.” She looked at Amber. “What about you?”“I-I don’t plan on grabbing anybody’s attention,” Amber quickly replied.“Tsk, tsk,” Selena shook her head. “Try to grab Benyamin’s att

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

CHAPTER 894
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
