Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 771
After almost a minute later, Rebecca blinked and quickly tried to stand.Benjamin also removed his hand from her vicinity.“T-Thank you…” Rebecca was about to take a step up onto the stairs, but then she slightly hissed in pain, as her ankle hurt.Benjamin immediately brought his arm behind her again. “I think you sprained your ankle. Come and sit on the couch. I’ll cure your pain.”“You know how to do it?” she asked.“Yeah,” Benjamin offered his hand.She hesitantly grabbed his hand, though only delicately, and he brought her to the couch and held her hand until she sat down.Benjamin carefully removed the sandals and then gently massaged her ankle and foot. Rebecca never uttered a hiss because he did it so perfectly.Generally, feet were very sensitive parts for humans, and Rebecca usually felt ticklish near her feet, but Benjamin applied just enough pressure to make her feel highly comfortable. She did not feel ticklish or painful.As he ran his fingers down her veins and then twis

The next morning.Rebecca came to the balcony for fresh air, and she saw Benjamin skating on the stone pavement and circled around the villa. “He has those inline skates, too? He’s very good at it as well. I don’t want to learn how to skate right now, but I have to do something to become fit again. I haven’t exercised on the spin bike in a while. I should continue it from tomorrow.”Kathy brought coffee to Rebecca.“I didn’t ask you, so why did you bring it?” Rebecca asked her.“Madam Selena told me to give you a cup because this coffee was made by Mr. Benjamin,” Kathy said and left. “Excuse me.”“Did he make the coffee?” Rebecca could see that it wasn’t filter coffee, but one made with milk. She picked up the cup and smell the fragrance. “Mm… It smells sweet. I can already feel that it’s going to taste good.” She took a sip, and she wasn’t wrong. It was pretty good. “Did he add something more than coffee and sugar?” she wondered. “It tastes different from regular coffee, but it’s goo

Kathy came to Rebecca again.Rebecca kept coldly looking at her. “What now?”“C-Cup,” Kathy picked up the coffee cup and saucer. As she walked away, she looked at Benjamin. “He was quarreling with his lover last night. Something must be going wrong between them. I guess even their relationship might not last long.”Kathy purposely said these words, even though Benjamin and Rye never quarreled. But how would Rebecca know about that?“They were fighting?” Rebecca wondered. “They looked very understanding toward each other, though. But then again, quarreling is common in any relationship. Mm?” Just then, Benjamin waved his hand at her and asked, “Do you want to skate?”Rebecca slowly shook her head.Benjamin then kept circling around the villa onceagain, with Roshan trying to chase him. However, Roshan was only a beginner, so he was not able to keep up with Benjamin who was doing many skating tricks to keep Roshan entertained and also make him feel jealous.Rebecca hadn’t seen Roshan la

“My smile will shine in you,my voice will sing in you,and my love will live in youIf only you would give me a chance to be with you…”Roshan laughed with mixed emotions after reading what Benjamin wrote. “This sounds cringey. Do you think this will help me attract her attention?”“It depends on her taste and mood,” Benjamin replied. “Give it to her when she’s in a good mood. Also, make sure you write it in your own handwriting.”“Write what?” Rebecca entered the backyard and plucked the paper out of Roshan’s hands.“A-Aunt, I don’t know anything about it!” Roshan said and quickly ran away.Rebecca read the words written on the page and then looked at Benjamin. “What are you thinking, giving this to a fourteen year old?”“In a few days, he’ll be fifteen.”Rebecca’s jaw hardened. “That’s not the point. He’s too young to be dating.”“I don’t think it’s wrong to express his love for a girl in words,” Benjamin said. “Even if he’s seven, he can write a love letter to another seven year o

Rebecca went into her room, sat down on the bed.After a few seconds, she took out a paper from her pocket and read the words, “My love will live in you, huh… If only something like that is possible…”She had always heard that her parents used to be in great love when they were young, but now, they were living in separate rooms, and she didn’t even remember them laughing together.“Love before marriage may be sweet, but after marriage, it gradually turns sour… That’s the reality of all marriages. That’s why I tried so hard to find the right man who wouldn’t easily turn sour despite not liking what I do. I couldn’t find any, and I ended up marrying Benyamin. Unfortunately, he didn’t live long. Now, I feel burdened to marry again. I know marriage sucks, but being alone sucks even more. With marriage, I can at least have children and a family. But if I’m alone, what’s the point of living and earning?”She put the paper under her pillow.Because Rebecca’s memories were also altered, she w

Roshan walked a mile before he finally changed his mind and apologized to his sister. Only then, Benjamin let him enter the car.Roshan still looked upset and did not talk with Benjamin.Benjamin understood that the reason Roshan apologized wasn’t because he felt like it, but it was because he didn’t want his friends to see him walking to school.Benjamin eventually dropped Lisa and Roshan about a hundred meters away from the school gate and told them to walk the rest of the distance. Lisa didn’t have a problem with that, but Roshan did. He looked grumpy about it, but that didn’t change Benjamin’s mind.Benjamin just watched them until they entered the school. “Handling kids sure isn’t easy… You have to do it carefully without offending them. I think Roshan is offended, but it’s not to the point he will let it get to his head.”He then drove back to the villa.Elizabeth also just came home, but she looked very mad. She went straight to Selena’s room and asked her, “They kicked me out

After the election results, the news about Selena debt fraud was telecasted a lot on the television, and a lot of people began to call her and ask her what happened.Selena had to repeatedly tell them that it was fake news. And it was so frustrating. She had already called her lawyer and told her to deal with this. They filed multiple cases on the guy who claimed that Selena owed him money. They also filed a defamation case, demanding 200 million dollars. All this happened in a matter of a couple of hours.During that afternoon.Rebecca came downstairs to eat. She could hear the discussion Elizabeth and her mother were having a talk about Selena.“This case looks like it’s going to become something big,” Dorothy was warning her daughter. “I think you should just go and live in your own house for the time being. When things settle, you can then come back.”“But mom…” Elizabeth was saying.“Listen to me. If you’re here, and then your husband and his mom ask you to give up on your house

After lunch, Rye quickly went upstairs and checked her notebook for someone’s mobile number and then called them. “Hello, is this Nora Lynn?”“Yes, who is this I’m talking to?” an old lady’s voice came from the other side.“I’m the one who helped you get the car for your granddaughter,” Rye said. “Do you remember me?”“O-Of course, how can I forget you, Lady?” she quickly said. “My granddaughter loved that car. It’s the safest car in the world, she says. I’ve tried to contact you after that day, but I couldn’t find anything about you. I’m so happy that you finally called. Please tell me, what can I do for you?”“Um, I want that car for a couple of days,” Rye hesitantly said. “Is it possible?”“Why are you asking? Just tell me, and I’ll have the car brought to you in minutes,” Nora stated. “You can keep it with you as long as you want. Tell me, where should I bring the car?”“The Sterling villa,” Rye said.“Got it. The car will be there soon.”“Thanks.”“No need to mention. I hope I’ll
