Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 827
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

Jane quickly reacted and pressed the brake, but their car was moving at around sixty miles, so the car ended up hitting the woman, causing her to fly and roll many feet down the road.The car stopped, but Jane’s expression completely froze. She couldn’t even blink, much less move out of her seat.Rebecca was stepping out of her car, but Jane noticed a few people rushing onto the road and said, “Don’t!” She pulled Rebecca inside.Rebecca also quickly shut the door.Jane drove away fast from there, and these rowdy men jumped onto the car and tried to stop it, but Jane swerved the car and shook them off.Though they managed to get away, Jane’s heart was still racing.“What if that woman died?” Rebecca looked at her.“Y-You saw her jump in the way of our car,” Jane blurted and then quickly looked at the dash cam, which was running and recording. She breathed out a big sigh of relief. “We have video footage, so we can prove our innocence even if she died. I think it was all a plan. Those m

Benjamin glanced into the distance. “Follow Rebecca’s car. I’ll be back soon.”A woman in dark brown clothes appeared next to Benjamin. “Sir, since the vampire king has died and a new king has come, we’ve been seeing strange movements among their secret sects and secret societies. It’s obvious that their prime target is you. They are looking to devour your flesh and sleep in your skin. At this moment, it’s best that you don’t go out on your own. If you don’t want to go back to our home city, you should at least stay in the Sterling villa so you’ll stick close to Madam Uzza and Lady Rye.”“I know that my father sent you to guard me, Maara,” Benjamin calmly replied, “but you’re worried too much about me.”“Sir, I know that you’re strong, but the enemy doesn’t have to attack you directly,” Maara said. “He can use others to get to you. We cannot underestimate our adversary’s strategies.”“We’ll talk about this later. Follow their car now,” Benjamin said and entered his car and left.Maara

Benjamin was driving back home. He noticed Rebecca’s car parked by a shop, so he watched from a distance.Jane was buying houseware with beautiful designs. Rebecca wasn’t buying anything, so Jane bought some tables, along with tablecloths and flower pots for her. She spent more than 12,000 dollars overall for Rebecca.Rebecca refused to take the items, but Jane told the shop owner to deliver those items to the Sterling villa anyway.“If I knew you’d do something like this, I wouldn’t have let you stop the car here,” Rebecca hissed at her.“C’mon, I’m your best friend and probably the only friend you are still in touch with,” Jane replied. “What’s wrong with buying a few things for you?”“But it’s not even your own money,” Rebecca kept frowning.“Heh, my husband’s money is my money,” Jane flaunted the credit card which was given to her by Steve.“You’ve spent a lot. Steve is going to be angry at you!”“I know what to do to cool him down, though,” Jane grinned.“You are so shameless!” R

“I told you not to stop. Why did you stop the car?” Rebecca hissed at her.“If only both of us go, the shopkeeper might not be so willing to withdraw the order,” Jane spontaneously replied. “But if a man like Benjamin is with us, then things will be easier for us.”“Huh, you’re just making up an excuse to bring him into the car,” Rebecca blew hot air through her nose. “You think I don’t know what you’re trying to do?”“Hey, he will sit in the back,” Jane said. “You’re sitting in the front, so what’s the big deal?”“Hmph,” Rebecca didn’t say anything and just looked the other way.Jane, on the other hand, lowered the window glass and called out for Benjamin.He had already seen them, so he didn’t act like he was surprised. With his hands in his pockets, he came straight to the car.“Get in,” Jane said, without even asking him any other details first.Benjamin didn’t object, either, and just sat in the back.Jane continued driving, but she also started a conversation. “Why are you walki
