Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 66
Elizabeth went to Rye’s Pizzas in her G-class benz car and eagerly waited for Benjamin. The workers were all excited to see his chubby yet appealing blonde. Even Christopher who was devastated and frustrated because he got demoted to assistant manager without even being told why now felt greatly attracted toward her.Was she the woman of his dreams? Probably.He kept tagging along shamelessly and asked more and more details about her.As time passed, Benjamin didn’t come. This already frustrated her enough, and when Christopher asked if she wanted to eat a pizza, she ended up slapping and shutting him up.“What makes you think you can talk to me so freely?” she coldly blurted at him. “Stay at least six feet away from me, and speak only when it’s necessary.”“S-Sorry, ma’am.” Christopher’s face turned pale. Now that he was slapped in front of a lot of workers, he completely lost his face.He went and minded his business.Elizabeth roamed around, yelling at anyone who made the slightest
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 67
On the first day after Benjamin quit the job, he did a lot of things that made him feel happy more than proud. Firstly, he had made a carrot pudding, one good enough to make his wife compliment him for the first time.And he expressed his love for her not just through words but also by focusing on her little needs and wants.At the end of the day, Rebecca felt like she really was treated like a queen. But it was at night, something much more memorable happened for her. She was tying up a bandage around her ankle to keep it firm, and she was doing it clumsily. Benjamin took it upon himself and tied a beautiful-looking knot that almost impressed her. But that wasn’t all. He suggested she could also add knots to her designs to give them a unique feel, and he showed her very many wonderful designs with a rope and a scarf. Thanks to him, Rebecca learned a lot in one night. She was a bit overwhelmed even, so she asked him to help her practice these knots for a few days, until her brain got

Benjamin massaged Nolan again this morning. Nolan complained everytime Benjamin made the slightest of sudden movements. Benjamin was growing tired of his remarks, and his patient was really being tested today.“If you don’t even know how to massage using your hands, how are you ever going to please a woman fully?” Nolan raised a valid question, though only in his perspective. “You have to massage in a way they will want to be touched more. They should beg with their eyes to keep your hands running all over them. They should ask you to press you everywhere.” He glanced over his shoulder. “Why are you pressing like a lady? Press harder with your fingers.” Saying that he looked forward again and kept talking. “Massaging is an art. It’s not for the likes of you who can’t-”With his thumbs, Benjamin suddenly poked Nolan’s spine a bit hard, causing a cracking noise.“Ah!” Nolan froze for a second. He couldn’t move. “W-What did you do?”“Oh, no,” Benjamin acted innocent. “I think I heard som

Selena accompanied Rebecca to her room and went a step further to talk to her in private in the room.“You don’t look happy, Rebecca,” she said. “And that’s a clear sign that this marriage isn’t working. It never has. You guys never spent quality time together, so obviously, he doesn’t really try to help you when you’re in need. That’s the kind of husband you’ve chosen.”“Mom, can you please leave me alone?” Rebecca said.“Fine, but take a good rest and think. Use this time to come to a decision,” Selena said and walked out. Benjamin was outside, looking unhappy and tense. She tried to start a conversation, but he ignored her and walked past her. She didn’t mind that, though, as she knew he probably was thinking of giving some explanation to staring at another female’s breasts.Benjamin came and hesitantly stood next to Rebecca’s bed. She sat with her back against the headboard, but she wasn’t even looking at him.“Rebecca…” he tried to talk.“I don’t want to talk,” she said, rather s

“Kids can be really mean and even unknowingly wicked sometimes…” Benjamin was speaking through his mobile as he drove on a highway.“I get that you agreed to buy her a car, but you at least warned her to never play games with you, right?” Alfred spoke from the other side.“I told her if she threatens me again, I’ll go straight to her principal and ask him to give her an F-grade in all of her subjects, and she shivered when I said that, so I don’t think she’ll try to use me like this again.”“Mm, but when are you going to take your card into your hands, Master?”“I don’t know,” replied Benjamin. He was never intending to take that card anyway. He only wanted to take it from Lisa and then break it, but now, he wasn’t in a position to do that, or Lisa could mess everything up. After what happened during the breakfast, the last thing he wanted was for Lisa to approach his wife and tell her he had a crush on Lisa who was still a minor and over ten years younger. Moreover, Lisa was his niec

“I know Rebecca better than you know,” said Elizabeth, still putting on a gentle yet scary smile that made well use of her brows to convey her hidden feelings. “She hates liars. Maybe ‘despise’ is a more appropriate word. Once I tell her how much of a fraudster you’re, that your whole career and living is based on a lie, she will never trust you a word you say ever again. That’s the kind of girl she is.”Benjamin’s heart pounded against his chest so hard he couldn’t clearly hear her voice. “What do you want?”“Fufu, what do I want?” Elizabeth seemed amused. “What would I want from a guy who doesn’t shave his beard or even comb his hair? I’m starting to wonder if you’re hiding yourself from someone, which is why you’re not willing to shave yourself. This long hair also covers your face well. So firstly, why don’t we get you a neat haircut and shave in the saloon I choose. I’ll also get my hair styling done, but we’ll be using your money of course.”Benjamin clenched his fists so hard h

Benjamin came home calm as though he had just gone for a walk outside and nothing out of the ordinary happened.Seconds later, Elizabeth also came home, and she looked a little frustrated because Benjamin threatened her he would leak the video and image to her family and friends if she were to say anything about his real name to anyone.Elizabeth was someone who visited rich parties every week. If her friends were to see her working in a pizza hut, they would have something they could always mock her with. Many others might take it differently as well. How could someone like her who changed clothes every week and shoes every other week work as a manager at a pizza store? The pitiful and doubtful gazes they would spare for her would be shameful, to say the least. Elizabeth didn’t want to go through such a humiliating experience. Moreover, she had repeatedly mocked Benjamin for working at Rye’s Pizzas in front of the Sterling family members. If they were to know that she was working the

Jane’s apartment was a lone mountain, dwarfing the other rooftops in the neighborhood. Now it was fully covered in dazzling lights and caught everyone’s attention. Jane’s family had been living off like royals in this neighborhood from the rents alone.When regular cars arrived, Jane’s parents didn’t bother to come out to personally receive them. When the Porsche stopped outside, Jane’s mother came to receive them. She put on quite a bit of gold and was all smiles as she received Elizabeth and others. She thought Benjamin was a driver, so she didn’t even spare a glance at him and left.Elizabeth and her parents also completely ignored Benjamin after getting to the apartment, but they kept talking to almost everyone they thought were worth their time.Benjamin went to park the car in the parking space, but there was no room. He had to go to the nearest parking lane and park there. At the same time, another man was parking his car there. He saw Benjamin and immediately frowned in anger.

Benyamin and Rebecca came home in the Porsche.Rebecca looked happy, but Benyamin looked even happier. He was putting on a fake smile as Rye and Uzza were watching from the balcony.He waved his hand at them while Rebecca wasn’t watching.“The nerve of this guy….” Uzza’s jaw hardened. “Please tell me that Maara told Dahlia of the situation here.”“If Dahlia comes and sees what’s happening, all hell will break loose,” Rye opined. “She won’t just talk with him. She will destroy him.”“Yeah. I can see that. Dahlia is very kind in general, but when she gets angry, no one can stop her,” Uzza said.“If she sees Neel like this, she won’t just get angry. She’ll lose her mind. It’s hard to predict what she will do.”Uzza glanced at Rye. “Anyway, what was that back massage all about? Did Benjamin change his mind and give up on Rebecca?”Rye sighed deeply. “I wish that was the case, but he’s so fixated on the 40 day challenge. I was sitting on top of him at some point, and his lips didn’t even b
CHAPTER 912
Louis and Bella were having talks with the Queen’s cafe owner.The star-studded cafe buzzed with a low, melodic hum—the clinking of spoons against china, the murmur of conversations in English, French and many other languages, and the soft jazz drifting from a hidden speaker.Rain pattered lightly against the window, blurring the city lights into impressionistic streaks of color.Benyamin, his dark hair slightly damp from the drizzle, seemingly was captivated not by the view, but by the woman sitting across from him as she told him funny stories from her past.“I’m telling you the truth,” Rebecca said. “The pigeon Elizabeth bought ate the whole croissant right off the table. I’ve never seen anything like it. Elizabeth thought the maid ate the croissant when she wasn’t looking. It led to an argument, until Elizabeth saw the pigeon go for another food item.“After that day, she let the bird go, but that bird would return to Elizabeth’s window for food. She didn’t feed that bird at all,
CHAPTER 911
In the end, Rye didn’t kiss Benjamin. She got up from him and walked away.Benjamin still lay down on the bed.Rye’s scent was still in the air. It was also on his clothes. It was intoxicating, for sure, and he was finding it hard to fight the fleshly feelings that were stirring in him.Benjamin was not even thirty years old.He was near if not at the peak of his manhood, and it wasn’t easy to control the urge of a young man to let a woman’s scent affect him.On top of that, it had a familiar scent.All this made things quite difficult for him.Benjamin didn’t even move for a couple of minutes. Only after his body temperature and heartbeat went down, he got up from the bed.But before he could leave the room, Riley entered the room and shut the door.“W-What are you…” Benjamin was startled.“Hi, slickie,” Riley grinned with shyness and excitement as she approached him. “Can we have a quick, honest talk?”“No, we can’t,” Benjamin said. “Open the door, and let’s talk outside.” He was wa

The first to get upstairs was Roshan followed by his sister Lisa. Riley and other youngsters were right behind.When they looked through the open door in the nearest room, they were all shocked to see Rye walking on top of Benjamin’s back and massaging him.Selena and others also saw what was going on, and the situation turned from a completely serious one into a jovial one.“Haha, what a cute, romantic couple,” Selena laughed heartily.Riley, however, didn’t like what she saw. She wished she was in Rye’s position. She wanted to be the one walking on Benjamin’s back. She couldn’t hide her jealousy which leaked through her eyes right now.“It’s been a while since we’ve done that,” Shawn whispered in his wife’s ears. “Shall we do it tonight?”Elizabeth laughed a little in response.Rebecca did not stay there for long. She walked away, and Benyamin followed her.“Are you feeling jealous of them?” he asked her.“Why would I? They’re lovers. It’s something obvious that they’d do that,” Reb
CHAPTER 909
A long silence filled the hall of the Sterling villa.The only person who was able to smile other than Rebecca and Benyamin was Lisa who was just excited that a wedding was going to happen. She could invite her friends and show off.“A-A wedding?” Selena’s heart hammered against her chest.In the past, Rebecca did not want to reveal to the outside world about her marriage. But now, she wants to announce to the whole world about her marriage?And that, too, when Selena’s fame was rising higher than ever?What was she supposed to tell the guests at the wedding if they were to ask questions about Benyamin?Should she tell them that her son-in-law was a pizza-delivery guy?Just thinking about it sent shivers up and down her spine.“Don’t make this a never-ending debate, Rebecca,” Selena’s voice grew thick very much. “I didn’t like that you married, but you promised me that you wouldn’t hold a function and publicly announce your relationship with him.”“I never promised anything like that,
CHAPTER 908
Shawn brought Benyamin into the villa.With hands in his pockets, Benyamin looked confident and comfortable, as if he didn’t fear anything.“Why did you hit Riley?” Jacob asked him. “For a man to kick a woman in the gut… something vulgar like that…. I never dared to even put such a scene in my movies. What are you thinking when you kicked her? What are you trying to prove?”Benyamin coldly looked at Riley, and she ran and stood behind her mother.“Look at him trying to threaten Riley in front of all of us,” Fiona blurted. “What more proof do you want? Kick this bastard out of this building!”“Why did you hit her?” Jacob asked Benyamin, but he didn’t respond.“Tell us the reason,” Rebecca stepped forward. “Why did you do it? If you haven’t done anything wrong, why are you hesitating?”“I’m not hesitating,” Benyamin replied. “That woman attacked me, and I defended myself. That’s all there is to it. If I really wanted to hurt her, I would have easily punched her nose and broke it.”Selen
CHAPTER 907
Fiona caused a lot of noise and attracted the attention of everyone in the villa.She told them how Benyamin kicked Riley without any conscience, and it enraged Riley’s brothers, uncles, aunts, and dad.Selena was also quite upset by it. “I knew he’s trash, but he stooped to another lower level now.”“He wouldn’t have hit Riley without a reason,” Rebecca backed Benyamin. “First, ask her what she did.”“Are you doubting my daughter?” Fiona glared at her. “You think your husband is a saint or what?”“Whoa, hold it,” Selena intervened. “You don’t talk to my daughter in that tone.”“Why? She’s a princess who rules this country?” Fiona snorted.“One of her hair strands is much more important to me than you and your whole family put together,” Selena replied without hesitation, leaving Fiona and her family members stunned.Benjamin was on the first floor, watching the proceedings. (It’s her obsession over her eldest daughter that has made my life difficult in this villa. She’s obviously not
CHAPTER 906
In the dorms.Maara was swinging the nun-chucks and was hitting two tennis balls against the wall.Benyamin was in the same room, lying on the bed, with his hands under his head. “When are you going to get married, Maara?”Maara didn’t say anything.“You should find someone suitable for you in this city,” Benyamin opined. “Then you won’t have to go back to Sciocidad. That place is pretty boring, isn’t it?”“No, it’s not boring to me,” Marra replied. “It’s where my friends and family are.”“Tsk, you’re boring,” Benyamin openly stated.Maara hit the tennis balls at an angle so that they flew straight toward Benyamin’s face.However, he caught them both with one hand.“Are you butthurt by what I said?” Benyamin smirked. “You are tall and dark. You won’t find a suitable mate in Sciocidad, so you should find your partner here among the commoners. I was telling you what's good for you, but instead of thanking me, you are getting angry at me.”Maara turned to face him. “I can’t feel it, but
CHAPTER 905
George came to Rebecca who was sitting in front of a piano she hadn’t played in a long time.“Will you help me with learning the piano?” George asked her politely.“I myself am relearning it, so, no,” Rebecca replied, “uncle.”George laughed. “I’m your brother-in-law, not your uncle.”“Both are fitting,” she retorted, “in this case.”George found it embarrassing and frustrating that she wasn’t giving him any face even though he was just trying to be friendly, albeit with hidden intentions. “Do you know what happened to your sister’s husband?”“Akash left, it seems,” Rebecca said.“Yeah. But the shocking thing is that Veronica isn’t crying,” George opined. “Even enemies will shed tears as they’re parting, but… how come your sister isn’t shedding a tear? I didn’t know her heart was so cold.”“It is good that she’s not faking her crying like some others do,” Rebecca replied, startling George.“I-Is that what you think? Now that you put it that way, I don’t disagree.”Just then, Fiona arr
