Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 753
Choy did not hesitate to attack the kids.Bella brought her hand in the way to stop Choy’s attack, but Bella’s hand was severed at the wrist.In that split second that Bella bought at the cost of her right hand, Louis was able to grab both of his kids with both his arms and run away.“Escaping is futile,” Choy indifferently said and leaped toward them.Bella enlarged her nails and thrust her left hand at Choy with great killing intent.Choy struck her hand with his elbow, which released a shockwave in every direction. Bella’s arm trembled.“Ho… you’re not half bad,” Choy said. “But…” He pointed his finger at her. “How dare you attack me, you filthy trash.” He pointed his finger at her and released a strong laser-like energy aimed at her forehead.Bella’s vampiric instinct moved her head out of the way, but the attack pierced through her left ear, and it was gone just like that.Bella swung her right leg diagonally, aiming to strike his diaphragm, but he blocked her left with his left

Denise fought Choy as best as she could, but after realizing that he was not someone she could defeat with just her strength, she ordered Zakaria and Cranston to fight Choy. And then she ran away while carrying Andrew.Zakaria abandoned Cranston and also ran away in the middle of the fight.“Why does shit always sticks to my feet?” Craston frowned as Choy mercilessly attacked him. He was a strong vampire, but Choy was simply much stronger than him. He didn’t even see himself winning this fight, so he just gave up on his life and closed his eyes.Choy ripped his heart out and moved on.A few seconds passed, and Cranston opened his eyes. His lost heart regenerated on its own. “That guy didn’t know I’m an awakened vampire. Kekeke. What a fool. Luck is on my side. I will use this opportunity to escape.” He was running away, but then a bolt of red lightning went right past his head.The next second, a clone of Rye made purely of red lightning was standing before him.“T-This is… an element

As a black bloodbath ensued in Shambol, Elizabeth and others returned to the Sterling villa.Selena wasn’t sleeping but was watching news so she’d know who had the better chances of winning. “There’s going to be a tough fight between Andrew and Hudson. I hope that Hudson wins, or most of my wealth…”As Selena was thinking, Elizabeth and others entered the home. Selena asked Elizabeth how she’s feeling.“It still hurts,” Elizabeth said. “I feel dizzy.”“Don’t think it’ll leave a mark,” Selena told her in a low voice. “I’ll take you to a top plastic surgeon.”Elizabeth somewhat smiled after hearing that.“What did you tell Mom, Grandma?” Lisa asked her because she hadn’t seen her mom smile after the bad incident.“That’s an adults’ secret,” Selena scratched Lisa’s nose with her fingernail.“I’m an adult, too,” Lisa said.“Not in my eyes,” Selena casually said.Just when Rebecca was passing by the television, she saw the news of many immigrants getting arrested for illegally occupying a

Later that night.Rebecca was not able to sleep. And there were many reasons for that.First of all, she checked the locker to see if her wedding ring was there or not. And it was there, so it meant that Benjamin didn’t steal her ring. This bettered her impression on him. And she couldn’t forget the fact that Benjamin went out of his way to get the immigrants out of Elizabeth’s house. She wanted to represent her family and repay Benjamin for what he did. But how?She doubted if he would be interested in money.Even if he was interested in cash, she didn’t even have 100 dollars in her bank account now. All the money she had was what was in her purse, and what was stored in her locker, whether it be hard cash or jewelry.The money she gave to Veronica wouldn’t return anytime soon. She wasn’t expecting to take it back from Veronica.So, this meant that she could only look forward to the million dollars she gave to Sofia Myers.She kept looking at her mobile screen to see if she’d get any

Later that night.Dovey was roaming in the lawn all by himself.Rye lay down on the bed in her room, wondering, “How much longer am I going to sleep alone in the bed?” she sighed. “The nights are getting harder and harder to bear. Sometimes it gets so difficult to control the urge to tell him all these things.”Just then, black fog entered the room through an open window.Rye saw that but didn’t even blink, much less flinch.“We can help you get Benjamin to your side,” Smiling Legion said. “We’ll make it so that you can wrap him around your little finger.”“And how are you going to do that?” Rye asked.“First, you need to form a deal with us,” Smiling Legion stated. “It’s a mutually beneficial deal. Once the deal is made, then we’ll reveal the secrets to you so that you can pull him to your heart.”“What secrets are we talking about exactly?”“Ones that will liberate you,” Smiling Legion answered. “Our secrets are based on the knowledge of the fallen angels, who once taught humanity a

The entire next day turned out to be a very silent day for everyone in Sterling villa.Selena did not even come to the dining table and instead sat in her room and had the maids bring food while she watched the news.Rebecca didn’t leave her room, either, but she didn’t even eat any food. When the maids asked her, she told them she was just fasting for the day.Because Rebecca didn’t eat, Benjamin didn’t eat, either.Because Benjamin didn’t eat, Rye didn’t eat, either.Because Rye didn’t eat, Uzza didn’t eat, either.Because so many people didn’t eat, Dorothy ate so much food today during breakfast, lunch, and dinner. And she told the maids to not eat too much just because there’s so much food.Lisa and Roshan didn’t want to come downstairs to eat, but Dorothy yelled at them and made them come down, instead of letting them eat in their rooms.Shawn took care of his wife and her needs.Jacob, on the other hand, wasn’t even home.Later that night, Louis, Bella, and their kids returned h

The next morning.Rebecca woke up earlier than usual as her hunger peaked. She didn’t want to eat anything that was in the fridge, so she came out of the room.She didn’t want to wake the maids up because she never did that before. She had never asked the maids to cook anything for her in the past, not even once.However, she didn’t know how to cook, either.“Should I just make an omelet?” she was thinking. She went into the kitchen, only to be surprised to see Benjamin there.He was already making something she thought of making. However, she saw him pouring water onto the pan. “W-Why are you pouring water on the omelet?” she quickly asked.Benjamin wasn’t surprised by her sudden arrival. “This is one way of cooking basted eggs.”“Does it taste good?” she curiously asked.“Not so much with water, but if you add butter, then the taste will be rich,” Benjamin said. “I’ll make one for you afterward, so give me five minutes.”“O-Okay,” Rebecca didn’t reject his offer. “But is it okay if

That same day.“Why isn’t Jacob home yet?” Selena was wondering. She called his mobile, but he didn’t answer her calls. “Tsk, what is he doing?”Selena came downstairs to eat at around ten in the morning.Just as she started eating, many cars stopped outside the house. Five financiers entered the building.Selena had never seen them before, so she asked, “Who are you? What do you want?”One of them tossed a file onto the table and didn’t even speak.Selena checked the documents in the file and she had to try her best to not get angry because these documents showed that Jacob had taken loans from them. One of them also came from a private bank.“What’s the total amount?” she asked.“12 million dollars with interest,” one of them said. “It’s a daily interest bond. So if you take another day to pay, the amount will change. We’re trying to contact Jacob, but he’s not even lifting our calls. We didn’t want to come here, but he left us with no choice.”Selena gritted her teeth as she looke

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
