Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 823
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,

Rebecca and Jane were sitting on the balcony for the past hour or so.“Some of those men are looking in your direction,” Jane said. “Are you sure you don’t want to go and talk to them? They seem interested in you.”“Their interest is like passing wind,” Rebecca indifferently said. “It’s a waste of time to even entertain them.”“How can you say that without even talking to them? You talk like you used to in the past,” Jane snorted. “Is your heart growing cold again after Benyamin died?”“I’m not that narrow-minded, Jane,” Rebecca assuredly replied while keeping her gaze on Benjamin. “I’m not blaming these men, but I’m just saying that they’re not worth my time.” (He’s not looking in my direction at all. Maybe, what Jane said isn’t true? She must be trying to trick me into talking with him or something?)“Whew…” Jane waved her hand before her face. “Is it just me, or the sun feels hotter to you these days?”Rebecca looked up at degrees and observed. “It’s not just hotter but whiter, too

Jane was driving the car, and she seemed excited because it had been a while since she drove Rebecca’s car. Now, she was showing her improved driving skills to her friend. When she skidded the car to take a U-turn, Rebecca’s heart nearly stopped.“Are you trying to kill us?” Rebecca couldn’t take her hand off her chest.“Hehe. How are my upgraded driving skills?” Jane grinned with amusement. “I learned a few tricks from Steve. Your car makes it easier to execute. As expected of Porsche. Classic cars are much better than the new models.”Rebecca opened the door and stepped out of the car. They were currently on a bridge running across a canal. She stood by the edge and looked into the distance.“What are you thinking so deeply about?” Jane joined her with two cups of sliced mangoes.“My family needs support from me now more than ever, but I don’t even have a job now,” Rebecca said.“You’ve been helping them and enduring a lot for them over the years,” Jane opined. “So, I think it’s tim

Jane took Rebecca to lake Wonderland, which was a famous tourist spot. Rebecca had been to this place before, but she didn’t explore it fully. Now, Jane took her to places where they got fish pedicure, flower petal massages, and many more.What they didn’t know was that Benjamin was following them everywhere while keeping his distance.And Benjamin was being followed by twins in disguise. These brothers were ordered by Sizzle to watch over Benjamin and report back to him later.These two men were like right hand and left hand to Sizzle, so they were called Right Sizzle and Left Sizzle. And they didn’t quite like what they were doing now.“Why does Lord Benjamin show such devotion to that bald woman when Lady Rye is the one he’s supposed to be with?” Left Sizzle expressed his frustration. “If I was him, I would have long married Lady Rye and had two kids!”“Don’t speak nonsense,” Right Sizzle flicked his finger and hit Left Sizzle’s forehead. “We are a shadow unit who mostly see and de

Sizzle was peeling the fruits for Uzza in the backyard of the Sterling villa.Uzza was sitting not far from the place where Samuel was buried. “I don’t see any movement of the soil. It might take another day or two for him to come out. If he doesn’t come out even then, it means he’s worthy of his death.”“Lady Uzza…” Sizzle hesitantly asked, “can I eat one banana?”“Hmph, look the other way and eat,” Uzza said.“Thank you,” Sizzle smiled, then turned the other way and ate three bananas. He then turned back, and she was glaring at him. “S-Sorry, madam. I was hungry, so I ate more. I will definitely buy more bananas later.”“Buy perfectly ripe ones,” she said.“You can break my bones if you’re not satisfied,” Sizzle resolutely stated.A few seconds of silence passed.“Madam, I’ve been wondering about it,” Sizzle said. “Why is Lady Rye trying so hard for Benjamin in a passive manner? Will she be able to change his mind with mere words and just by being around him?”Uzza smiled somewhat.

Jane and Rebecca were returning home, and Jane filled the car with the gas and paid the money.“I will pay you back later,” Rebecca told her.“Stop kidding,” Jane retorted. “If I count all the times you spent money on me, I might have to sell my house to pay you back. So, don’t make me feel bad by saying stupid things.”Rebecca pursed her lips together. She had booked flight tickets for Jane dozens of times over the past five years or so and also did so many favors for her. It wasn’t that Jane was poor, but she didn’t want to ask too much money from her parents as they would restrict her movements in return.Rebecca also told Jane that she wouldn’t pay for her tickets if she was just going abroad to date the men over there. Jane would give all kinds of excuses to convince Rebecca. Jane used her friendship card to the maximum benefit possible in the past. So, she wanted to pay Rebecca back in any way possible.“How about you do travel vlogging like me?” Jane suggested. “I managed to ge
