Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 582
On the same night after Rebecca brought Benjamin home.Everyone in the house was talking about Rebecca and Benjamin. None of them could see Benjamin because he hadn't left her room since three o’clock in the afternoon.“Why aren’t they coming out?” Roshan asked. “What are they doing in the room for so long? Aren’t they hungry?”“Just eat,” Lisa slapped on the back of Roshan’s head lightly. Being only 13 years old, he was still oblivious to the affairs of the adults, so Lisa could only tell him to stop worrying and questioning.“But I want to see the man that Aunt Rebecca married,” Roshan said. He came home from school in the evening, and had been wanting to see Benjamin ever since. “She refused to even see the pictures of guys that Mom and Dad tried to show to her, didn’t she? So, what kind of a man did she bring home after marrying?”“He’s a pizza-delivery guy, it seems,” Lisa said.“Huh? You really believe that?” Roshan shook his head. “Aunt Rebecca’s standards aren’t that low.”“Ye
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 583
Benjamin’s second day in the Sterling villa.He woke up late because he found it difficult to sleep in that house last night, and he ended up sleeping late in the morning.By the time he woke up, Rebecca wasn’t in the room. He was feeling hungry, so he just rinsed his mouth with coconut oil and then stepped out of the room. “I got a three-day leave, but I thought I was going to be with her. Still, getting to know her family is also important. Mm?”He looked down and saw a woman downstairs, wearing a sparkling dress and talking in a posh manner. “Cheating is a breach of the most important commitment you make in life. There are no excuses for cheating. Those who cheat don’t deserve sympathy let alone a second chance,” she was talking loudly with her friend through her mobile. “The world is full of liars, bullies, fruitcakes and cheats because there are no severe consequences. I’m not telling you to shoot him in the head, or marry him and then mess up his life. Instead, just end the curr

“I don’t know anything about womenomics,” Benjamin said. “I don’t even know about economics. You can’t even buy much food in the shop for you and your family with the money you earn after working for a day. So, something is seriously wrong with our economy and those that dictate it. On the contrary, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with your sis. She’s not unmoving like you said. She’s a bit indifferent at times, but she talks and acts just fine with me.”“She does?” Veronica looked a little surprised. “I guess, you’re just her type then? You know, like the guy of her dreams…”Benjamin smiled. “I hope so. By the way, I’m Benjamin. You are…”“Veronica.”“It’s nice to meet you, my sister-in-law…” Benjamin said. “What do you do, Miss?”“Ugh,” Veronica’s expression quickly changed.“Is something wrong?” Benjamin asked.“No, but I’m still a child you know,” Veronica said. “I don’t want to do a job. Adulting is so hard. Like you said, you don’t earn enough even if you work hard these da

Selena did not continue talking with Benjamin and instead went outside.Dorothy was also present at the time, and she was happy on the inside to see Selena so angry. It amused her.She waited until Benjamin finished eating food, and then she told him to take the wheelie bin in the backyard to the outside so that the garbage collectors could unload the trash when they came.Benjamin went to the backyard, where he saw Oliver Claude, another butler who was chopping live lamb right now.Seeing Benjamin, he snorted, “What? You think you can chop the lamb like I can?”“I didn’t say anything,” Benjamin replied.“Yeah, but the look on your face…” Oliver pointed the knife at him and bit on his lower lip. “I don’t like it. What are you here for anyway? Did you steal something and are trying to run away now?” He brought the knife down hard and struck the lamb’s leg. And the piece flew away into the distance.Benjamin took a step to the side and caught it, pleasantly surprising Oliver. He tossed

Benjamin entered the villa, and Veronica was waiting for him at the back door.“Can you help me with one thing?” she asked.“Sure,” Benjamin said.“I want you to act like you’re the new butler in the villa,” Veronica said. “I will record you working and post it to my friends.”“And why do you want me to do that?” Benjamin couldn’t help but ask. “Aren’t there other butlers?”“Yeah, but they don’t look all cute and handsome like you,” she said. “So, do this for me, and I’ll pay you.”“Pay me?”“Yeah, I will.”“I don’t need money.”“Then you will work for free?!” she excitedly asked.“You shouldn’t fool your friends, so don’t do this,” saying that, he walked past her.Veronica was offended by that. “It’s only acting. Why are you making a big deal out of it?”“Acting or not, lying is not good,” Benjamin replied.“I’ll pay you more.”“No.”“Then what do you want?” Veronica raised her voice.Benjamin stopped and turned around. “You’re my sister-in-law. I’m your brother-in-law. Just tell you

On the same evening day.Rebecca was coming home in her red Porsche. And she was talking with Jane on the phone. “I spent 1800 dollars on that tiny bottle. I had it shipped from another country, but it didn’t even last four hours. It’s trash. They are just looting. These designer perfumes… they are completely losing my trust. Shame on them. How can they blatantly steal money from us using their brand names? How can they take their profession so lightly?”“Calm down, girl,” Jane said in a sleepy voice. “Don’t burst my ears. I just woke up. If the perfume lasts only four hours, then you just have to put it on twice. What’s so hard about it?”“It’s 1800 dollars, Jane! If I thought it was so shitty, I would have bought an 18 dollar one instead,” Rebecca hissed. “I don’t want to keep checking if my perfume is still there or not. I want to focus on my work when I’m working, you see. And the last thing I want is someone to tell me that I don’t smell good. I can’t make others feel bad when I

On the same night, at the dinner table.Every single member of the Sterling family was eating right now. Jacob, Selena, Shawn, Louis, Elizabeth, Bella, Rebecca, Veronica, Lisa, Roshan, Vlad, Mercie, Dorothy, Nolan, and even Georg were there.Benjamin was sitting next to Rebecca. His focus was more on trying to talk with them than on eating.“Rebecca, how could you marry a poor guy like him?” George said. “If I had known you would do something like this, I would have married you myself.”Everybody at the table looked at George in a not so friendly manner.“Easy, guys. It was just a joke,” George laughed out loud because no one was laughing.“By the way, Rebecca, your recent scarf and monkey cap designs have become quite popular,” Shawn said. “They are going to be selling like hot cakes this winter.”“Does this mean your salary is going to increase even more?” Elizabeth asked.“Actually, I worked together with a fellow colleague of the company,” Rebecca said. “So, it’s not entirely my c
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 589
“I’m done,” Rebecca finished eating and so she stood and was leaving.“Love,” Benjamin grabbed her wrist.“Pfft,” Selena ended up spilling the water in her mouth.Everyone else was just as shocked by what Benjamin did. Not only did he call Rebeeca as ‘Love,’ he also grabbed her hand? Nobody in the house would dare to do such a thing, so how could he do something like that so easily?Veronica was goggle-eyed and stared at them stupidly. Calling her sister ‘Dear’ wasn’t enough? He had to call her ‘Love’ as well? She could tell that Rebecca was definitely upset this time.“You forgot your mobile,” Benjamin picked up the mobile from the table and put it in her hand.As angry as Rebecca was, she controlled herself and said, “Come up after you are done eating.” Saying that she went upstairs.“Okay, Love.”Rebecca walked away in quick and heavy steps. The goodly bedrock of ego and hatred in her heart felt quaking right now.Benjamin continued eating.“How did you two meet?” Veronica asked. “

Some days later.Sofia Myers ordered pizza from an apartment she had recently bought.And to her surprise, it was Benjamin who delivered it.“It’s you?” Sofia remembered him. “Aren’t you Rebecca’s husband? You both are having an official wedding soon, right? Why are you still working as a pizza-delivery guy?”“I have my reasons,” Benjamin replied. “And it’s more of a part-time job now.”“Okay, come on in,” Sofia told him.When he entered the apartment, there were over a dozen females there, smoking and drinking.“This guy is Benjamin, a mighty pizza-delivery guy who married a bald woman,” Sofia started making fun of him to make her friends laugh.Benjamin quickly countered her, saying, “It seems your husband has left you to your pleasures. I’m not surprised, though I might not have done the same thing.”Sofia gritted her teeth and threw her mobile at him.Benjamin caught it with ease. “A woman who easily gets angry will have a hard time obtaining a place in any man’s heart.”“Get the

In Sciocidad also known as the Sky City.“So she asked for more time…” Ryan sighed.He became the temporary ruler of the Wolfe clan.“Both Benjamin and Rye have left this seat, which is something that never happened before,” Ryan’s voice was gritty yet sad. “This doesn’t set a good example for the coming generations, especially given that we’re living in the end times.”“Don’t tell me, you’re planning on making someone else the sovereign?” Uzza quickly asked.“No, not yet,” Ryan replied. “We’ve lost a lot already. We can’t be wasting our people’s time or give them false hope. It is better to pick a new ruler, but I will wait a little longer.”Even though Ryan didn’t say it, Uzza felt that the time limit would probably be six months.“Come back soon, Rye,” Uzza wished in her heart.Elsewhere in the same city, in a dark dungeon.“With a friend like you around, what’s the need for enemies?” Benyamin was hissing at Dahlia as she poured her spiritual energy into Benyamin’s spine relentless

She slowly turned me around.Our eyes locked each other.
EPILOGUE
A few days later.At six in the morning.Rebecca woke up and found Benjamin resting with his head at her legs. “Benjamin, why are you sleeping the other way? You’re not a cat. Sleep next to me!”Benjamin rolled over to her side and lay next to her, sharing the same pillow. “Last night, I woke up for water, and then I saw the mole on your thigh, and I wanted to sleep next to it.”Rebecca’s face flushed very much. “Stop it, you are talking like a child!”“Aren’t we both still children in our relationship?” Benjamin gently touched her chin and planted a kiss on her cheek.Rebecca’s face gained some more blood. The same could be said for Benjamin. Both of them were fair and were in the prime of their age, so they appeared a thousand times more attractive when blood rushed to their faces.After Benjamin kissed her, Rebecca felt her emotions stirring up again. She pulled the blanket up and covered both of them and hugged him tightly and showered kisses on him.“I think it’s time for breakfa

The moment blood gushed out of Rebecca’s neck, while her eyes were staring at him, Benjamin immediately snapped.“BENYAMIN~~!!”His roar reverberated through the hearts of all the people there, shaking their very souls.Benjamin’s suit was ripped to pieces as he grew into a mighty silver werewolf and leaped forth.In a flash, Benjamin’s claws cut through Benyamin’s shoulder and snatched Rebecca.Benjamin vanished from people’s sight and landed on the rooftop.Dahlia and Uzza took Benyamin and also vanished from there.Rye stood frozen, and so did Selena and everyone from the Sterling family.

They cast a wide spell together, which swiftly erased the recent memory of this wedding itself.However, they did not remove the memories of those from the Sterling family.Almost every guest collapsed on the floor afterward, but Selena and others were still standin

The wedding night has arrived on time just like the full moon in all of its splendor.Rebecca did not look happy because Selena did not send invitations to most of the people she should have.Selena didn’t want this wedding news to be spread around the world, either, so she tried her best to suppress it from behind the scenes.Jacob also played his part in doing what his wife wanted him to.Shawn entered the villa, wearing a disguise, as he wanted to see his sister’s marriage and also see his wife and kids once.The wedding was taking place in the front yard.Benjamin was standing in the distance, far from the crowd.Jane and Veronica brought Rye out of the villa. Dressed in dazzling white, she looked like the walking moon.Benjamin didn’t even look in her direction as his back faced the villa.Holding a bouquet of white roses and lilies, she waited for the groom.Moments later, Benyamin also walked out of the villa, as escorted by none but himself.
