Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 818
In a certain country, in an abandoned king’s castle, where it was fully taken over by a banyan tree, with its branches spreading thousands of feet in every direction, not at all giving respect to walls or boulders, for its roots pierced through everything in its path.This castle was where the infamous mafia gang Skull Reapers operated from. Their leader was a famous surgeon Karl Blanco with a net worth of over five billion dollars.Karl was talking with Jacob right now while smoking a homemade cigar of the highest quality.“Of all people, you and your stupid wife had to mess with the president of the most powerful country in the world,” Karl snorted. “Did your brain turn into stone after you tasted your first flop movie or what?”“It’s not a flop! It’s been tampered with before release!” Jacob yelled while being restrained to a chair.Two men standing behind Jacob smashed his shoulders with the base of their machine guns, making Jacob cringe in pain.“Don’t raise your voice against

At Andrew Sehla’s estate.Andrew just finished his meeting with the prime ministers from two different countries and then finally came to his personal quarters.He was being shown Jacob live on the television screen. Seeing Jacob suffering, Andrew felt somewhat satisfied. He chewed on softened beef and liked its taste.“When the mood is good, food also tastes better,” Andrew smiled to himself. He called Karl and told him, “I want to see his teeth broken and hair plucked out one by one. Send that video to Selena later to force her to make a decision.”“Sure, sir,” Karl replied from the other side.Just after Andrew ended the call, his daughter-in-law, Kismet entered the room.“You came at the right time,” Andrew chortled. “Look who I have on screen.”After seeing Jacob, Kismet’s eyes lit up for a second, but she said, “I wish Selena was also captured.”“Haha, fret not, Kismet. I prepared a bigger game for her,” Andrew said. “If everything goes the way I planned, she’s going to become y

In the middle of the night, Rye who was lying on the bed opened her eyes because she couldn’t feel Benjamin’s presence anymore. “Where did he go at this hour?” She didn’t think he’d leave the villa and go somewhere. “What was so important? Mm?” She could hear Selena’s voice coming from her room.Selena was talking with some woman on a video call. “Even you want me to marry that old fuck? How can you talk so crazily?”“I mean good, Selena,” the other woman spoke calmly. She was over eighty years old and had a permanent scar on her cheek. She looked abnormally pale.“What good? How can I marry that guy? That’s out of question,” Selena stuck to her belief. “He’s just a president. He’s just a tool for the big organizations and the bankers and the secret families… which is why I’m calling you. Didn’t you owe me all those years ago, Madam Biscuit? I never asked you anything before. All I’m asking now is to control this barbaric dog that is Andrew. It’s not a hard thing for you to do.”“I do

The entrance gate of the castle that was made of heavy iron was knocked three times.Who would knock on the door in the middle of the night? Naturally, many men were alerted, and they readied their guns. Four men came to the door and slid open the peeping hole first and took a look at the person standing outside where it was dimly lit. Without even asking anything, he pointed the gun and shot multiple times.Eight bullets, to be precise.However, the person was still standing.“Kekeke. Did he die while standing? That’s rare,” the men were laughing, but then the heavy iron door suddenly broke open and crashed into the four men and took them flying with it for dozens of meters, leaving everyone shocked. They all turned to look toward the entrance when Benjamin entered.The dozen men in black hoods were still on the wall and did not move. “H-He was supposed to be at the Sterling villa. How did he get here so fast?” the leader of these dozen men was about to move, but Benjamin uttered, ‘st

At around 4:30 in the morning, in the Sterling villa.While everyone was sleeping well in their rooms, Selena was the only one unable to even catch forty winks.She was drinking wine. It had been a long time since she opened a wine bottle in her room. After many years, she once again started drinking in her room.“Almost every job has become such a thankless profession,” Selena hissed. “There’s no right or wrong in the adult world, only pros and cons. Life has become like business nowadays. There’s no point in trying to live with dignity and nobility like a saint in this cruel world.”Selena had sacrificed so much already for her children and for her family. She felt like she had suffered enough and has reached a breaking point.Andrew was literally smothering her from every angle, but nobody was helping her. How long could she stand alone, demanding justice? Would fighting back be worth it when justice was in Andrew’s hands now?“I don’t think I can make it happen…”Despite what Jaco

Rebecca woke up early that morning, thanks to Jane hijacking the space on her bed. She didn’t like how Jane was sleeping so deeply after ruining her sleep, so she pinched her cheek and woke her up.“Ow, why did you do that?” Jane looked utterly baffled. Her cheek felt it was burning. “It hurts.”“Just felt it.”“Huh?” Jane also tried to pinch Rebecca’s cheek, but Rebecca wrestled with her. Jane couldn’t do what she wanted, so she ended up biting Rebecca’s arm, making her cry out loud.Rye, who was reading the newspaper in the living hall, could hear them. “What are they doing just after waking up?”“Haha, it’s definitely good to be young,” Uzza chortled. “You don’t feel the back pain and the stiffness after waking up.”“Don’t talk like you’re old.”“I’m not young anymore, though,” Uzza said.Rye didn’t like hearing that from the woman who didn’t have children so she could take better care of Rye after her mother died. Uzza was still at an age where she could still give birth if she wa

At around nine in the morning.There were many guests visiting the Sterling villa and were greeting Jacob. Selena knew that most of them were rivals and enemies to Andrew, which was also why she treated them well.The fact that Jacob escaped from Andrew’s clutches had already begun to spread in the underground circles, so many people came to the Sterling villa, either directly or through connected people to make sure of that.Rye was surprised by the number of people that were visiting Jacob. Most of them were new faces, but there were some old faces, too.“So these guys all want to use whatever power Jacob used to escape from Andrew. Is that it?” Rye looked at Uzza.“Can you blame them, though?” Uzza asked her back. “If they didn’t think that Selena and Jacob were capable by themselves, they probably wouldn’t have bothered to come here. Only strong people can have strong connections. If Jacob and Selena don’t stand strong now, most of these people wouldn’t even bother to contact them

In one of Andrew Sehla’s superyachts.Andrew just finished killing Luther’s lover and brother for disappointing him. He dropped their dead bodies in the pool and watched the crocodiles eat them.Still, Andrew didn’t look happy.“How the hell did they manage to get Jacob? I haven’t received any information on who helped him escape, either.”Just then Andrew remembered the time when he was warned to not mess with the Sterling family because of those that were backing them.“I didn’t think too much about it back then, but now, I must know who’s helping them,” Andrew thought.Just then, his assistant Kong came to him. “Boss, you received an invitation for the anniversary of Jacob and Selena Sterling.”Andrew was both surprised and annoyed to hear that. “To think they’d send me the invitation… just where are they getting this courage from? If I don’t go, it’ll send the wrong message to others. And I also still don’t know what happened to my son.”“It’s in two days, Boss. If you want to go,
