Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 761
Rebecca went back to her room and did not come out for hours.Afterward, she came out of the room with a file in her hand and went out in her car.“Where’s she going so fast?” Rye wondered.“You know that she doesn’t have much money in her bank account now,” Uzza replied with a mental message. “She probably wants to get a job as soon as possible.”Both of them were playing badminton on the lawn with a temporary net separating them.Just then, Benjamin walked out of the villa.“He’s going, too,” Uzza said.“I can see that,” Rye indifferently replied.“Don’t you want to go with him?”“Not really. He’s following her like a tail, and I don’t like it,” Rye said. “If I’m next to him, it’ll only make me feel even more irritated. By the way, I haven’t sensed Choy since morning.”“Ah, about that… Choy said he’s leaving,” Uzza replied. “I think Benjamin warned him for attacking Louis and his family.”“I don’t see anything wrong with what Choy did,” Rye opined. “It was their fault for being in t

Rebecca went to twelve different companies, and she was straightaway rejected by some companies, whereas others asked her to do weird favors for them in return for the job.Every interview turned out to be a joke for her. A sick joke that made her feel tired and frustrated really quickly.In the evening, she was on her way home, but she stopped by at Drake’s restaurant.The place was full of customers as usual.She sat at a corner table and waited. Moments later, Jim came to her table and said, “Are you going to leave this time without eating, too?” He wasn’t smiling as he usually would.“I’m sorry. My sister-in-law was admitted to the hospital, so I had to leave,” Rebecca replied.“Oh… then let me make a healthy dish for you this time,” Jim said. “The bill is on me.”Rebecca didn’t refuse because she didn’t have much money with her. And then she also needed to fill her car with petrol.Jim went into the kitchen, and he kept hearing his mother’s voice in his head. He robotically cooke

Benjamin and Rebecca returned home, with him sitting next to her.As she stopped the car, he asked her, “Was this car always blue?”“Mm? Yeah,” she replied. “Why?”“Nothing. Just asking,” he said and then got out of the car.Rebecca also stepped out and looked at the car once. “I like red cars, but I ended up taking this one.”“Do you want me to paint this red?” Benjamin asked.“What? No,” she quickly said. “It’s fine the way it is.” Saying that she entered the building and didn’t stop anywhere and went right into her room.Benjamin wanted to spend more time with her, but for the next few days, she did not come out of her room but asked Delle to bring food to her room.So, Benjamin didn’t get to meet and talk to her at all for many days straight. And this upset him.Rye, on the other hand, just patiently waited because she believed that she didn’t need to do anything as there was no way Benjamin could reverse time and undo what had happened.Almost four weeks passed by.Veronica had m

The next morning.The day of the election results had come, and Selena sat glued to the screen. She was already very nervous because she wasn’t sure if Hudson would win over Andrew or not.In just an hour after the counting started, Selena’s hopes began to evaporate because Andrew was also getting a massive lead with every round.Still, she watched the television, hoping that the tide would change, but with every passing hour, her hopes got squashed.By afternoon, it became obvious that Andrew Sehla was going to win.Selena got so shocked and choked by the result that she had to quickly go to her room. She checked her mobile, which had a short text message from Victoria: Sorry. We lost.“Just a sorry?” Selena threw her mobile aside. “I lost hundreds of millions because of this. All because of her! And she’s saying a mere sorry?” She was so angry and frustrated she felt like pulling her own hair.Meanwhile, in the living hall.“She lost her bet,” Uzza amusedly smiled. “It seems she bet

Andrew defeated Hudson by a whopping nine percentage voting difference. It was a landslide victory.Every newschannel was talking about Andrew and the elections. Samuel Sehla and Kismet Sehla also earned quite some fame for their relentless electoral campaigning, which took Andrew’s voice to all the corners of the country.Andrew did not talk anything about the Sterling family, but Kismet did.It wasn’t Kismet but someone who was wearing her mask, but the script was given to her by Kismet herself.Kismet targeted Selena, Jacob, and Rebecca because she knew that these three were the main pillars of the family. Shawn was also capable, but Kismet didn’t put him in her eyes.Kismet took digs at these three people and said how shameless and crooked the Sterling family members were and that God would punish them for the allegations they made on Andrew and the Sehla family overall.Meanwhile, the Myers family members were throwing a big party to celebrate the victory of Andrew Sehla.Andrew

By the time the night had fallen, the country was celebrating the success of Andrew Sehla.However, Selena cried silent tears in her room. She hadn’t cried so much in a long time. And after many years, she once again tasted the saltiness of her tears because she had made such a big mistake, trusting someone she shouldn’t have.Selena had already researched the company she bet the money through, and though she didn’t find anything wrong with that company back then, right now, she found out that it was nothing but a fake company.However, She still didn’t think that it was a company built by Victoria Myers, and that Victoria was entirely behind everything.Either way, Selena couldn’t come out of her room just yet because she was so gripped by sorrow right now.Meanwhile, at the dining table.Rebecca was eating dinner. This was the first time she came out of the room after almost four weeks.Benjamin was also eating on the other side of the table, with Rye sitting next to him.Rye kept d

When Jim looked at her, Rebecca almost spilled her food out because she wasn’t expecting that. At least, she wasn’t expecting him to be so open about it.“Ms. Rebecca Sterling…” Jim said, “Will you go out on a date with me?”Rebecca stopped chewing.Rye could hear Benjamin’s heart picking up speed. She sent him a mental message to control himself.Rebecca swallowed the food and then said, “Jim… I’ll be frank. My family situation and my situation isn’t really good right now. So, I don’t think it’s the correct time for me to spend on dating.”Jim was disappointed to hear that, but Benjamin felt relieved.“Troubles are ever present in our lives,” Jim responded. “If not one trouble, another trouble will always be there. Didn’t that lady just say that we should get married at the right time and not waste our youth? I think the same way. My dad has always tried to get me married since I turned 20, but I wasn’t interested in it. Now, I changed my mind after seeing you because with you, ther

“I’m not gay…” Jim eventually managed to break the silence.“I never said you were,” Benjamin replied. “I’m just stating the possibility and am telling Rebecca to be careful because she’s a good friend of mine.”Rebecca was pleasantly surprised by those words. She didn’t remember anyone other than Jane calling her a friend in recent times.“I appreciate your concern for her, but I’m not a gay,” Jim maintained eye contact with Benjamin. “If I was a gay, I would have approached you secretly by now since you’re handsome. But I didn’t. Because I’m not gay. I don’t know how else to prove this.”“You don’t have to prove anything. You just said indirectly that you’re gay,” Benjamin said.“Huh? I didn’t say that,” Jim quickly retorted. “What are you talking about?”“No, you did.”“I didn’t.”Meanwhile, Rye pressed her foot on Benjamin’s foot, telling him to stop.“How can I prove to you that I’m not gay?” Jim asked him.“You don’t have to prove anything. I know what you are,” Benjamin retorte

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

CHAPTER 894
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

CHAPTER 891
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

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

CHAPTER 888
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
