Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 728
Jim was cooking as well as serving all the customers by himself. He was very busy, but then he saw Rebecca entering the restaurant.He quickly came to her. “I was not expecting you.”“I came here to return this,” she said. “I’d have forgotten if I left it somewhere in the house, so I brought it.”“Thank you,” he took the bag.“You look busy. Don’t you have any other workers?” she asked.“The waiter was sick, so he didn’t come,” Jim said. “And my dad went out somewhere on personal work, so I had to deal with everything.”“Uh, I can give you a hand if you want.”Jim was pleasantly surprised by that. “Do you know how to cook?”“No, no, I was talking about serving the customers,” she quickly replied. “You take care of the cooking. I will serve the food.”“H-How can I let you be a server?” Jim shook his head. “You’re the daughter of Selena Sterling. You can’t be working as a waitress in my restaurant.”Just because Jim said those words, Rebecca wanted to do the work even more. “Just leave
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 729
Jim had met many gorgeous women, but he barely ever felt outmatched in terms of looks. He was born with near-perfect genes that would make men and even women envy his looks. However, right now, he was feeling envious of the two people that stepped out of the taxi, especially of this red-haired wonder who looked so pristine and with such clear spotless skin that she looked like she was out of this world. How can such women even exist? He thought he was perfect, but this woman was making him feel a bit inferior.In his eyes, Benjamin also had the perfect face that was neither too manly nor feminine. However, Benjamin was shorter than him, so his subconscious mind didn’t feel outdone by Benjamin. He could feel himself as a match to Benjamin, but the same couldn’t be said for Rye.Both Jim and Rebecca were pale-skinned, but the skin of Rye and Benjamin were pale and rosy. Their faces were full of life.“What’s going on here?” Rye stepped forward and asked her. Her voice was like the sound

Uzza was enjoying the mango, sitting on the couch in the main hall.Just then, Rebecca entered the building along with Rye and Benjamin. Seeing her leading them, Uzza was utterly baffled.“Why are you shocked to see your own daughter?” Rebecca asked Uzza. “You two can keep talking. I’ll tell the maids to prepare some food items.” Saying that she left.Rye sat down next to Uzza. “Do you have another mango?”“What are you doing here?” Uzza asked her but then looked at Benjamin. “Why did you bring her along? Are you okay with her being here?”“She said I’m her lover,” Benjamin replied, “and Rebecca didn’t say anything. It seems she really forgot everything that happened between us.”“Yeah.”“Does that mean she doesn’t even remember getting married?” Rye asked.“No, she does seem to remember that, but she just doesn’t remember being married to Benjamin,” Uzza said.“How strange…” Rye wondered. “But this is also good in a way. Isn’t it, Benjamin? She forgot about you, so she can move on wi

Benjamin came out of Rebecca’s room, feeling very sad as well as angry.The joke that the demons were playing on him made him feel upset. Just how low could these beings stoop? How could they mock him like this? How could they play with his feelings like this? How could they harass him like this?Benjamin came downstairs and sat opposite to where Rye and Uzza were sitting.Nobody else was around.“Did you find out anything?” Uzza asked.“Any clue?” Rye asked.“Not just the memories, but even photographic evidence has been changed,” Benjamin said.Rye’s eyes widened. “H-How’s that possible?”“It’s like we’re living in a parallel world with a different Sterling family altogether,” Uzza opined.“Yeah, that’s one way to put it,” Benjamin agreed, “but that’s not what’s happening. As you said, the times have been messed with. As a result, the memories of the people in this build have been affected. First we need to find out how far and deep this goes. Then we’ll be able to work on it.”“You

Benjamin returned to the villa, still looking sad.Louis came to meet him at the gate. “You’re finally back,” he was smiling with excitement.Benjamin blinked twice. “Y-You… You remember me?”“Of course,” Louis said. “How can I forget you?”“B-But…” Benjamin didn’t know what to say. “But the others..”“Yeah, that’s crazy, isn’t it?” Louis said. “I woke up the other day, and everyone started behaving a bit differently. It kinda spooked me. I didn’t understand what was happening, but I dared and asked the woman Uzza, and she told me that this was done by some dark spiritual forces in high places. I asked her why, but she didn’t tell me. Do you know why this is happening? Why doesn’t anyone remember who you are? They are clearly hypnotized, but they somehow completely forgot you. That makes no sense to me no matter how much I think about it. Do you have any idea?”“Unfortunately, I don’t know much better than you do,” Benjamin replied. “But it does make senses, that they didn’t want the

Benjamin entered the building with his eyes closed and hands in his pockets.Hearing some familiar voices, he opened his eyes.Lisa, Elizabeth, Shawn, and Roshan were talking about some on one side of the hall. Lisa saw Benjamin, and she kept staring at him for a little while.Benjamin waved his hand at her.“Oh my goodness. He looks so handsome,” Lisa quickly said.“Mm?” Elizabeth looked to her right and saw Benjamin. She was also pleasantly struck into silence by his handsome face.“Ahem,” Shawn cleared his throat.Elizabeth quickly shut her mouth. “U-Um, you must be… Benjamin, right? Miss Rye’s boyfriend.”Benjamin just couldn’t nod in return, so he came across as a bit rude.“He’s rude,” Elizabeth muttered under her breath while smiling.“Mom, look at him. He can be as rude as he wants,” Lisa said.“You are just sixteen! So keep your mouth shut!” Elizabeth pinched her daughter’s cheek.“Aw,” Lisa cried out.Roshan, on the other hand, came over to Benjamin and asked, “Why aren’t yo

Selena was currently watching a horse race along with Victoria Myers, who was the mother of Sofia Myers.After the race ended, Victoria won the bet and received 3 million dollars in addition to the 1 million dollars she used to palace the bet.Selena was very much thrilled to see that. “Do you always win like this?”“Most of the time,” Victoria said. “Betting is all about staying in the profit zone. If you think you’re going to lose, then you better quit. It’s better to go to sleep with a 10 dollar profit than a 100 dollar loss.”“Hahaha, right.”“I’m planning on betting on the elections,” Victoria said.“How much?”“1 billion dollars,” Victoria stated.Selena’s eyes popped out of her sockets. “A-Are you serious?”“Of course, I am.”“How can you be sure that you’ll win?” Selena couldn’t help but ask.“I’m not stupid. I have already spent 2 million dollars to privately survey the important cities and towns of the country,” Victoria said. “I even used my clothing stores to conduct more

A few minutes later.Rye entered Benjamin’s room. He was sleeping on the bed. She used that opportunity to close in and plant a kiss on his cheek. “Don’t feel too stressed, my king. Everything will end well for us. I will make sure it will.”She then sat down and just watched him.“Something truly unexpected happened. The damned angels did do something that would benefit me,” Rye thought, “but I never asked for their help. I’m sure they’re not doing this to help me but to mock Benjamin. I don’t know what exactly they’re planning, but I doubt they have the power to alter everything in reality. There’s no way God would allow them to do that. Let’s see how far they’ll take this. The more they push Benjamin, the more he will fight back, so I hope they just stay in the background and don’t try to directly poke him.”Just then, Kathy entered the room and was surprised to see Rye.“Sorry,” Kathy said and quickly left.“Mm? What was she blushing for?” Rye didn’t like it. “Was she trying to do

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

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

CHAPTER 897
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
