After the meals, Rebecca seemed fine, but Benjamin wasn’t looking happy because the food didn't taste good to his tongue. He couldn’t even call it average. And he wasted 500 dollars for unappetizing food which only looked good for the eyes but not for any other senses.

The bill was 494 dollars.

Benjamin gave the waiter five hundred dollars.

It felt too little.

The waiter made Benjamin aware of his disappointment with his subtle gesture.

Benjamin patted the waiter’s shoulder and said, “Don’t see it as six dollars. See it as six hundred cents. Then you’ll unravel the mystery of money.”

“Mystery?”

“That one dollar to you is a hundred dollars to someone else,” Benjamin said. “One can even tell where the wind comes and goes, but who can tell where the fortune comes and goes?” Saying that he walked away.

The waiter looked at Rebecca, hoping she might give him some money.

“Why are you looking at me? Do you ask tips from everyone at the table? Don’t get ahead of yourself,” she retorted and th

    Rebecca did not stop the car anywhere until she reached the Sterling villa.Once she got out and looked, Benjamin was not on top of the car.“Did he fall somewhere?” she frowned. “I was checking in the mirror, but I didn’t see him fall, though.” She went over to the other side of the car but didn’t find him, either. “He really fell?” she was walking away, but then Benjamin, who was hiding next to the car, suddenly jumped at her. “Kyaa!” Rebecca jumped on her toes, but then she immediately whipped her handbag at him. It was done purely out of reflex.Benjamin could have dodged,but he didn’t. As a result, the bag hit his face, and he fell down.“You almost scared me to death!” she fumed at him. “You deserved that.” Sht then ignored him and went into the villa.Benjamin quickly followed her.Rebecca saw him coming and told Selena, “Mom, today, he earned hundreds of dollars as tips. You can take it if you want, he said.”“Oh… he earned hundreds of dollars through tips?” Selena looked doub

    Hundreds of miles high in the sky, on top of icy clouds.A group of three gray demons were cackling while sharing stolen treasures among themselves. The items included hair, nails, mobile, boots, blood, memories, panties, semen and much more.“I made that woman bleed early, so her blood will be mine.”“I make that boy stare at the mobile all the time, so this mobile will be mine.”“I gave that old man wet dreams for years, so his memories will be mine.”“Then what about me?” a fourth voice asked them.“You can have those stinky boots,” they gave him.“These boots might be too big for me,” Benjamin said.“Stop complaining and just take them,” they blurted, but then they turned their heads and looked at him. “Eek!” they all fell back as they didn’t sense his presence until now. “Y-Y-You’re…”“You lowly little shits dare to mess around in my place?” Benjamin’s fists released spiritual energy.“L-Let’s us leave! We won’t ever come to your villa,” they said and were flying away. Benjamin p

    Benjamin came to the kitchen with the excitement to cook the best breakfast for Rebecca.Kathy was cooking in the kitchen.“I’ll cook for Rebecca, so don’t cook for her and me,” he told her.Kathy didn’t say anything.As Benjamin was cooking, a faint breeze blew past her, and her expression changed. She grabbed the knife and raised it and approached Benjamin from behind and stabbed his shoulder.The knife pierced his shoulder, and blood came out.Benjamin was shocked, but when he saw her face, he recognized that grin. “You bastard… You’re the Smiling Legion from last night, aren’t you?”“Kekeke,” Kathy grinned. Her hair stood on both ends and took the shape of horns. Her eyes turned black, and her fangs grew big as the possession took greater hold on her. “To think you could get stabbed by me… you must really be focused on cooking for your wife. What kind of things are you mixing in her food to make her like you?” She tried to stab him again, but Benjamin stopped her.“Shut up and get

    Sheron was taken to the hospital. Devon told Delle and the other maids to take care of the needs while he was gone.But only Delle was working while Kathy and Amber relaxed in the dorms, wondering if their workload would increase if Sheron were to kick the bucket.Even though Sheron’s situation seemed really bad, no one in the villa really talked about it. Even Selena barely mentioned a word about her.Sheron worked in the villa for nearly two decades, so it was a bit of a shock for Benjamin that they didn’t seem to care about their head maid.“Did you buy the biscuits I asked you for?” Lisa asked Delle.“Yes,” Delle politely replied.“It’s not good to eat biscuits daily,” Benjamin voiced his mind. “They will badly affect your gut and digestion. It will cause long-term problems for you later on.”“Huh?” Lisa looked a bit bewildered as well as angered. “It’s one thing if you tell me to stop drinking soft drinks because there’s lots of sugar in them, but there’s nothing with eating some

    In the red Porsche, Rebecca and Benjamin were heading to the hospital.Benjamin, who was sitting in the back, didn’t look happy.Rebecca could see that he was upset.“We don’t know if she’s dead or not, so why are you so worried?” she asked.“She died before the ambulance even got to the villa,” Benjamin said.Rebecca was surprised to hear that. “That’s why you want to visit the hospital, huh, because she died right before your eyes, you feel sad for her.”“She didn’t deserve to die like this, but she was struck dead,” Benjamin said. “That’s her fate. God gave her life, and he took it away. We cannot stop that.”Rebecca stopped the car at a flower shop and bought a bouquet of white roses. She gave the bouquet to him and said, “If she’s alive, give this to her. If she’s dead, then put it next to her.”“Why can’t you do it yourself?” Benjamin asked.“Just do it. Don’t ask unnecessary questions,” she said and continued to drive.Staring at the white roses which had not a single black spo

    Rebecca came straight to the nearest hospital from their villa, expecting that Sheron was admitted there.And she was correct.However, Sheron wasn’t even taken into the ICU as the doctor had declared her dead. They tried CPR on her, but it didn’t work.As a result, Sheron’s body was on the stretcher now, with Devon crying over her. When Rebecca arrived there, the nurses were telling Devon to take his wife away.Rebecca rebuked them, saying, “Can’t you at least wait until he catches his breath? Are you nurses or monsters?”Rebecca's rich attire and richer beauty made it rather obvious that she was from some rich family, so the nurses didn’t raise their voices against her, even though they were definitely annoyed by her arrogance. After all, she was scolding the nurses in their hospital, which wasn’t something anybody would do and get away with.Devon saw Rebecca and stood. “Madam…” he didn’t expect Rebecca of all people to come.“I’m sorry for your loss, Devon,” she said and looked a

    Benjamin was working late that night, delivering pizzas to party-goers between eleven and twelve o’clock.Some didn’t give him tips at all, but some gave him generously, so overall, it wasn’t a bad day in terms of earnings. He had to work more hours than usual, and he earned more than he usually did, too.After finishing the work, he was coming home in a bus.There was only Benjamin, a woman, and the driver in the bus.The woman seemed to be in her mid thirties, and she couldn’t take her eyes off of Benjamin. After some time, she ended up coming over and sitting next to him, but there was a gap between those two seats, where people could walk.“You look stunning,” she said. “Honestly, I’ve never seen a man with more pleasant features. Where have you been all this while?”Benjamin smiled and shook his head before showing her his wedding ring.“Oh, I’m married, too, but we can, you know, smash if you want to,” she said, biting her lower lip. “Make this the greatest night of my life.”“D

    Benjamin could have heard what the mother and daughter were talking about on the balcony, but he chose not to, as they could be talking about some personal matters.So, he just smiled at them and waved his hand at both of them.However, neither of them waved back.He waved once more.Rebecca was looking at him, but she did not wave back.“Why has she become cold again? I thought things were going well between us,” Benjamin thought, still smiling. “It’s really hard to keep smiling even when things aren’t going your way.”He walked over and stopped under the balcony and took something out of his pocket. “Rebecca, catch this.”“What is it?” she asked.“Just catch it,” Benjamin threw it up.Rebecca reluctantly caught it with one hand. It was a small purse.Selean kept staring at her daughter’s hand without even blinking. “Open it. Let’s see what’s inside.”Rebecca had no idea what was inside the bag, so she wasn’t sure if she should open the purse in front of her mother or not.“Mom, it’

    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

    “Haha, did Veronica’s husband really go back to his country?” Fiona laughed excitedly as she privately talked with her daughter Riley in a guest room. “I didn’t think things would happen so smoothly. Now, we just need to introduce one of our rich allies to Veronica, and the rest will take care of itself. I should also deal with Rebecca’s husband, too.”“Mom, I need to tell you something,” Riley said.“Go on,” Fiona was eating sweet bread which Delle had made.“I…” Riley hesitantly said. “I think I’m in love with Benjamin.”Fiona choked on her bread.Riley quickly gave water.It was only after drinking the water, Fiona was able to breathe again. She took a few deep breaths and looked at her daughter in shock. “Are you fucking kidding me? You have a wedding soon, and you’re saying you fell in love with Rebecca’s husband? A pizza-delivery guy?”“No, mom. Rebecca’s husband is Benyamin, the guy with the wolf haircut, but the one I fell in love with is Benjamin,” Riley clarified, “the guy w

    “It’s obvious that your sister has come here with a goal,” Selena was talking to Jacob in his room. “Fiona is a snake through and through. We can’t let her stay here for long, or she’ll cause our family to split up. If we give our daughters to the billionaires she refers to, then they will try to have control over our family. You do realize that, don’t you?”“So you want me to send my sister and her family away when they came to our house after so many years?” Jacob asked her back in an annoyed voice.“Yeah. You can’t hesitate with a snake, or it will bite you when you’re most vulnerable,” Selena added. “If you don’t send her away, she will stick in this house for a while and make a mess out of our family.”Jacob thought about it. “I can’t do it myself, but I know someone who can.”“Who?” Selena curiously asked.“Your eldest daughter,” Jacob smiled.“Rebecca?” Selena was surprised for a second. “I see. If Fiona confronts Rebecca about her marriage, then Rebecca wouldn’t just watch. If

    “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 Riley. 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

    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

    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
