Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 734
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

Seeing Rebecca’s car, Benjamin got up and went past Kathy, making her wonder where he was going. But then she saw him go straight to Rebecca’s car. “Do they know each other?” Stacy frowned.Rebecca stepped out of the car and tossed the keys.Benjamin caught them.Seeing him, she was surprised. “I’m sorry,” she smiled awkwardly. “I thought it was a worker, so I tossed the keys...”“It’s okay,” Benjamin smiled because she used to throw the keys to him sometimes in the past. (It’s not your fault. Your memories might have been altered, but your muscle memory is still there.)Seeing her smile made Benjamin temporarily forget all the pain and put every other burden aside. His heart also smiled for the first time in a long time. “You’ve got a beautiful smile,” he said. “It’s like an oasis in a desert.” He tossed the keys back to her.Rebecca was not expecting such a powerful compliment, so she didn’t know how to react. “Uh…” she couldn’t find the right words and had to think. “My smile can’t

At Origin casino.Sofia Bacic and George were playing poker again, and they were currently losing on purpose.They let one particular customer win repeatedly, so they could later get it all back from him.At some point, Sofia told him, “When he starts saying it’s enough, then handle him.”“Handle him? How?” George asked her in a low voice.“Handle him as you would my cock, with respect, reverence and awe,” Sofia said.George almost coughed blood from her words.“It’s okay, George,” Sofia patted his shoulders. “Not all days are ours. Some days we lose. Some days we win.”George forced himself to smile. (Someone, please save me. I want to get out of here.)Sofia leaned closer and whispered, “Nobody from the Sterling villa will come to save you because Shawn is terrified of me. So, you are alone. So, just shut up and do what I say. Otherwise, you’re going to lose your limbs, and then you’ll be dumped in a pig farm.”George’s spine shook from hearing those words.“Don’t think I’m joking,

“I know my daughter is right next to me, but I wished that Rebecca was also born to me,” Dorothy said. “Then I would have been able to kiss her so many times when she was a baby. I feel the same way when I look at you two. Don’t think I’m trying to flatter you or anything. I’m really speaking from my heart. You two easily defeat any popular actors and actresses out there in terms of looks”Just then, Selena came downstairs.“What about me?” Selena asked.“O-Of course, you were also in a league of your own when you were young,” Dorothy said. “I don’t need to say that because your reputation speaks for itself.”Selena pridefully smiled and then greeted Uzza, Rye, and Benjamin before sitting at the table. She sat right next to Benjamin, which he didn’t quite like because he was hoping that Rebecca would sit there.Soon, Lisa, Roshan, and Shawn also joined.Lisa kept asking Benjamin a lot of questions, even though she was priorly told by her parents to keep her mouth shut.Roshan, on the

At Pure Waters.Early in the morning, a delivery guy unloaded all the boxes of alcohol and placed them carefully on the shelves. He had messy hair. He was wearing glasses and had a long face. After finishing the job, he came to Rodnie, the bar owner, whose head was on the bench. Rodnie looked completely drunk.“Sir, I finished the task,” he said. “If you give me the payment, I’ll go.”“I’ll give you your money and some more,” Rodnie told him, “but first, sit down and share your love story with me.”“W-What? My love story?” he was surprised. “Why do you want to know my love story, sir?”“Because I’m too old to have my own love story now,” Rodnie said and laughed. “So, tell me…” he took out a stack of 100 dollar bills. “A good love story. And this money will be yours.”The delivery guy’s eyes lit up. (There’s gotta be at least a hundred notes in that stack. Ten thousand dollars. I can’t miss this opportunity.) He quickly cleared his throat. “Ah, where should I start?”“Start with your n

Rodnie was not just the owner of Pure Waters bar but also the principal of the school where Lisa and Roshan were studying. He changed a lot after his daughter died. But in the past, he was a much-feared man. No one would dare splash a drink in his face.“Who the hell…” Rodnie got angry and looked at the person that just threw the drink at his face, but after seeing Benjamin, he raised his eyebrows. “Who the hell are you?” he was about to fall to the side.Benjamin grabbed him in time and made him sit comfortably. “You drank too much.”“My daughter came to my mind this evening,” Rodnie said. “I didn’t know what else to do. I promised her I wouldn’t take drugs, so alcohol is the only thing I can still turn to. Thanks for grabbing me.” He poured some alcohol for Benjamin.“I didn’t come here to drink,” Benjamin pushed the glass away with his finger.“Then… What brought you here so early in the morning? Did you have a lovers’ quarrel or something?”“I just wanted to check if you’d remembe

Benjamin returned to the villa at around six in the morning.Just then, Selena also came home.“Where did she go the entire night?” Benjamin wondered. “Did she have a night shoot again? She’s not wearing any makeup, though.” He noticed the booklet in her hand and saw the word ‘bet’ on it.He paused for a few seconds. He remembered telling her not to trust anybody with betting.“Was she betting somewhere?” he thought, but then didn’t ponder much about it. Betting wasn’t uncommon among the rich. He knew that Selena was very careful when it came to money so he believed that she wouldn’t make any foolish bets.Selena went to her room and put the file in her locker, and then changed her dress. She looked at herself in the mirror. “I’ve taken a big risk. The biggest risk ever. If I succeed, I’ll become a billionaire. Then I’ll be able to buy this villa back, and then half a billion will still be left.” She lowered her head and prayed. “I haven’t prayed in a long time, but God, if you’re lis

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

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
