“Have you talked with the Sehla family?” Selena asked Shawn.“Yeah. Samuel said he’ll come,” Shawn replied while eating chips.“Good. By the way, Your dad told you to bring George, didn’t he?”Shawn’s shoulders jerked. “Ah, I couldn’t get him.”“Couldn’t get him? What’s that supposed to mean?”Shawn kept eating chips.“Stop eating those damn things!” Selena plucked the chips bag from him. “And tell me what exactly happened.”“You don’t wanna know it, Mom,” Shawn said. “That bastard is playing in the casino. And he has armed bodyguards now.” He made up some lies mixed with the truth. “I can’t forcefully bring him. That’s not possible.”“He has bodyguards?” Selena was surprised. “That fool? He’s the black sheep of our family, even worse than Benjamin. How come that useless bastard has bodyguards? Ah, that’s right. He won the lottery, didn’t he? Tsk, I guess even the pigs can get treated like kings if they own some money.”“Can I have my chips now?” Shawn asked.“Hmph,” Selena tossed the

Selena did not like what her daughter had done.Tearing a check in front of her eyes was very angering and frustrating. And she quarreled with Rebecca for a long time.Veronica had to come in between and stop them.After that Selena and Rebecca didn’t talk for hours.Veronica brought popcorn to her sister to divert her mind and cool her down. “Eat,” she said.“Are they made in a microwave oven?” Rebecca asked.“I think so. Why?”“Then I don’t want them,” Rebecca said. “You shouldn’t eat them, either.”“Why is that?”“Because they’re not healthy. That’s why Benjamin removed the microwave ovens from the kitchen. Now that he’s gone, Elizabeth and Mom must have told the maids to bring them back into the kitchen for use,” she hissed. “Their egos are so big, they’re fine with ruining their own health as long as they get on top of others in what they say and do in this house.”Veronica kept eating popcorn while listening to her sister.Rebecca grabbed the bowl from her and put it away. “Don’

Samuel Sehla talked with his dad and agreed to Selena’s demands because the election was very near now. So, he just wanted to deal with them after the elections.Nevertheless, Selena said she was also recording the whole conversation for future safety, and her words only angered Andrew some more.Veronica and Akash demanded that his parents be returned, and Samuel had his men bring Akash’s parents within fifteen minutes.His parents hugged Akash and cried so much.Elizabeth rolled her eyes. “Take this melodrama somewhere else please,” she said openly.“Elizabeth,” Veronica coldly said. “You should get to your room if you can’t watch it with your stupid eyes!”Elizabeth’s jaw slackened. “D-Did you just call me by my name?”Rebecca had called her by her name many times, but Veronica hadn’t done that until now, so Elizabeth was really shocked.“Yeah, I did,” Veronica blurted, “and you should be glad that I even called you by your name. My husband’s parents got kidnapped and were tortured

Since Akash left the house, Selena looked more peaceful, and she’s been doing everything she can to stop Rebecca from leaving the house.She brought morning coffee to her daughter so she could talk to her. “Are you still thinking of living outside?”Rebecca didn’t like drinking coffee, but for her mother’s sake, she drank it. “That’s better for everyone.”“Not for you and me,” Selena quickly said. “I don’t know about others, but it’s not better for both of us.”“I can’t be peaceful if I’m here, so… leaving is the only way,” Rebecca said.“Are you perhaps thinking of dating many men?”“Huh? What makes you think that?”“Well, I was wondering if any guy proposed to you, like Jim from Drake’s restaurant,” Selena said. “He’s much better than Benjamin, of course, but there’s always an issue with good looking people, especially good looking guys. They always get approached by lots of women. Now, men are not like women. Their testosterone drive is much stronger, so it’s not easy for them to

Later that day.Veronica received a call from Akash’s parents. They used a mediator to talk with her, and they told her they wouldn’t send Akash back to her. If she wanted to live with him, she should come to his country and live in his house.Veronica was very shocked to hear that. She wanted to talk with Akash, but they didn’t agree with that. She at least wanted to hear his opinion, but his parents didn’t let them talk.Veronica told Rebecca and Selena what happened.Rebecca knew that they might cause some trouble, but she didn’t think they would call Veronica to come and live with them.Selena, on the other hand, was utterly furious. “They are finally showing their true colors. They want my daughter to live with them in their dirty little house? Fuck that! That’s never happening!” she looked at Veronica. “Don’t even think about traveling to their country. They are just trying to mess with you now. If you listen to them and go to their house, they’ll put you through mental and eve

At night.All the members of the Sterling family were having dinner. Though some people were missing, the ones present there still tried to look happy.“So, you two are going to stay at a different house,” Jacob looked at his daughters. “Why so suddenly?”“Mom already agreed to it,” Rebecca said.“I know that, but why do you want to live on your own?” Jacob asked. “When we are in crisis, we should stick together. That’s common sense. If we split up and go different directions, then the Sterling family will really fall apart.”“The Sterling family has long fallen apart, Dad…” Rebecca hesitantly said. “Don’t talk as if it’s only happening now.”Jacob’s gaze reddened somewhat. “Nobody in this world is perfect, Rebecca. I’m not the only father who has dirt in his life. Almost everyone I know has lots of dirt they keep buried in their lives.”“Instead of correcting one’s mistakes, giving excuses isn’t really a good thing,” Rebecca retorted. “You can take all that dirt to your grave. I don’

Though Dorothy beat her son like a dog, she still told him that he could stay in the villa for a little while if he wanted to, but she also warned him to find a job really soon, or she’d personally push him out by the neck.Later that night.After everyone went to sleep, George was roaming all around the villa, packing all the valuable items in a large sack. From prized paintings and costly watches to golden and silverware, he packed everything.When he came to the first floor, however, he was shocked to see Uzza sitting on the couch. He almost dropped the bag in shock, but he somehow held onto it.“W-What the…” he looked at her and realized that she had her eyes closed. “Is she sleeping while sitting? I guess her bum is fat enough for her to do that.” He was about to leave and look for things at other places, but then he noticed that she was wearing a golden necklace, which caught his eye. “I can’t just leave such a valuable thing now, can I?”He quietly put the bag down and then app

The next morning.Uzza was sitting in the living room. She was just watching the maids do their work and didn’t speak a word.Everything seemed normal, just as it should be.“What spell did they cast last night?” She kept thinking about it. “They definitely did something, but I have no idea what it is. It’s so frustrating.”Though Uzza was knowledgeable, she was still a child when compared to the fallen angels who had the knowledge of the secrets of the heavens and the earth and had lived for thousands of years.At some point, Rebecca came out of her room.Normally, she would directly go to the balcony and get some fresh air there, but today, she went straight to the dining table.Uzza followed her and also sat at the dining table. Because of Uzza’s presence, everyone was careful with their words.“I’ve heard someone say that you’re leaving the house, Rebecca,” Uzza said. “Is that true?”Rebecca paused for a moment and said, “No. I changed my mind.”“Oh, what made you change your mind

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

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

Benyamin couldn’t go upstairs with Rebecca because he refused to tell Selena what he was doing all these days.Selena wouldn’t have allowed him to go past her unless he gave her proof, so he settled with staying in the dorms for the time being.Rebecca dressed up very nicely and attended dinner. Because Benyamin wasn’t present, she was about to visit the dorms, but Selena told her to sit at the table.Selena sent Delle to go and bring Benyamin, saying sarcastically that he might otherwise get lost.Rebecca sat down and waited patiently. (Why didn’t he just tell her what happened? Things would have been easier if he told her everything. What does he have to hide?)Meanwhile, at the dorms.Benjamin and Rye were both present in the same hall as Shadow. Rye was silent, and Benjamin was doing the talking.“What is your relationship with Rebecca?” he asked Shadow.“Obviously, I’m her husband,” Shadow replied. “Don’t you know that already?”Benjamin frowned. “Stop joking.”“I’m not joking.

Benyamin gave a bouquet to Rebecca, and she gladly accepted it.Rebecca brought Benyamin into the villa while holding his hand, and her eyes were still wet with tears of happiness.Selena, who just happened to be coming downstairs with her handbag, planning to go out to make an important deal, saw Benyamin. The bag in her hand dropped. “Y-You… Why did you come back?”“Mom, is that the question you ask your son-in-law?” Rebecca’s voice was sharp.“He’s been gone for weeks!” Selena’s gaze also turned sharper. “And don’t you remember what he’s done? He sold the villa away to Uzza. Did you already forget that he cheated on all of us? Let go of his hand now! He must have heard of my recent rise and came here to use us! A bastard like him should never even be let close! Kick him out. Now!”Rebecca, however, tightened her grip. “No. If you want him to leave, I’ll leave, too.”Selena’s heart skipped a beat. “What? Have you lost your mind? Just what do you see in this trash that you are willin

Selena had been busy talking with many businessmen from all across the country. The people from the film industry also came to the Sterling villa with bouquets and gifts.Some gifted her luxury cars, while some others wanted her to act in their films, so they were showing their call sheets and asking for her movie dates.They were willing to pay her as much as twenty to fifty million dollars per movie.Selena, however, didn’t reckless sign on every movie she got. Out of the dozens of stories that came to her, she only picked two so far.And she was quite happy with her current situation.To show her gratitude to Uzza, she came to her and gave a key to Uzza who was in the kitchen with Delle.“What’s this?” Uzza asked.“One of the movie producers gifted a private jet as advance payment for agreeing to do his movie,” Selena replied.Delle’s eyes enlarged very much. “A-A private jet? How much does that cost, ma’am?”“32 million dollars,” Selena casually replied. “This is just the start. I’

“How did you feel when you first saw Veronica? Tell me the truth,” Uzza was questioning Akash while he was watering the plants in the backyard.“Obviously…” Akash was about to say something, but his husband-radar sensed his wife coming up from behind, so he said, “when I met her on our first date, I became pregnant.”Uzza spit out the corn kernels in her mouth out of shock. “What?”“Pregnant with love, I mean,” Akash added.“Why are you exaggerating?” Veronica pulled Akash’s ear. “When we first met, I smelled his hands first. They didn’t smell like curry, so he passed my first test. And then, we talked about other things.”Akash shook his head and giggled helplessly.Seeing Akash blushing, Uzza could see that he was in love with Veronica more so than Veronica was in love with him.Veronica then climbed on Akash’s back and hugged him from behind.“What are you doing?” Akash complained. “Can’t you see that I’m working?”“Work while carrying me. As a man, you should be able to do this muc

Kathy wanted to visit the mansion of the president to meet the president’s son, but she couldn’t go alone, so she took Amber with her. Samuel welcomed them, but Amber didn’t like the atmosphere and told Amber she’d go back. Kathy didn’t force her cousin and let her leave.Kathy then explored the mansion with Samuel, which shocked the maids as Samuel hadn’t done such a thing before. What if Samuel’s daughters and wife were to see what he was doing now? What if Andrew were to see?Andrew, on the other hand, was very busy. He worked with some media companies and celebrities and had them leak news on trafficking of women and children. He also had some sexual scandals released to divert some of the attention.The public thought that it was the work of the media companies at first, but as the news channels began to give credit to Andrew Sehla the president, everyone wondered if Andrew was behind this.As if living up to the people’s expectations, Andrew made some politicians and celebrities

As Veronica handled Akash roughly, punishing him for his farts, he yelled at her and told her to do the exercise herself to understand how tough it was, but then Veronica did five sit-ups and made them look so easy. She didn’t have any abs, but her abdomen looked very beautiful because of the skin folds and the type of dress she was wearing.“See? It’s so easy,” Veronica hissed at him. “Now, do just like how I did. Don’t inhale while getting up. That’s why you’re farting like a pig. Breathing is everything. Without that you won’t be able to execute any exercise with control.”“O-Okay,” Akash helped her get up. When he saw Rebecca and Benjamin at the door, he was so embarrassed he went to the other end of the gym.“You have come far, Veronica,” Rebecca was proud of her sister. She used to teach her little sister all the time, and now it felt nice to see her teach Akash how to do different exercises.“Haha,” Veronica laughed like a gorilla and looked at Benjamin, “do you want to learn f
