Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 878
In Rebecca’s room.Rebecca was writing words on a small board and kept erasing them and then wrote new words.Veronica was watching her while crunching on an apple. “What are you trying so hard for?”“My brand name.”“How about you just use Rebecca or Rebs?”“Nah, I want it to have a special meaning,” Rebecca kept thinking. “I can think of many names, but none of them are satisfying. It feels like something is missing.”“How about you put Veronica as your brand name then?” Veronica suggested. “I’m sure it will definitely bring you lots of success.”“Heh, yeah, if success can come just from the name, then I wouldn’t have had to work my ass off after finishing college.”“Having a company is quite risky, sis. Why don’t you just work like you used to? Weren’t you earning a million a month?” Veronica suggested. “I mean, you can demand more if you want.”“No, I’m not after money as much as I’m after success,” Rebecca said. “You can chase after money without end, or you can learn to find pea

In the evening, fluffy clouds drifted lazily through the cerulean sky. The scent of honeysuckle hung sweet in the air.Rebecca was on the balcony after the wind turned cold.Veronica came to meet her. “Mom hasn’t slept since last morning. She’s working so hard to become the ruler of Aurora Hills.”“The more gold and silver she has in her pockets, the less sleep she will get,” Rebecca replied.“Even though you said that you don’t seem worried for her,” Veronica asked.“I’m worried, but I have got many more things I’m worried about, though worrying doesn’t help with anything,” Rebecca said. “My mind used to be sharp until a couple of months back, but now, it feels like it has become dull. I can’t think of new designs, or even the name of my company.”“Too much thinking can make you feel congested and crazy,” Veronica said. “So, you should take your mind off all the burdens for a couple of months.”“Easier said than done,” Rebecca sadly smiled. She didn’t want to tell her sister that she

Benjamin was in the backyard, simply spending his time sitting next to the flower plants, taking in their different scents.He remembered the first night he met Rebecca. She sweetly called him Ben, a shortcut for Benjamin.“Ben sounds sweet, for sure, but about a month after marriage, there was a time when she called me Bunny because I was dumb enough to not take advantage of her even though we were sleeping in the same room. I didn’t quite get what she was saying at the time, but now that I’ve met and talked to more women of this world in the past year, I feel like Rebecca was waiting for me to make the first move? Or was she just trying to test me? It’s still hard to tell.”The women on Sciocidad weren't like this. They were all straightforward and meant what they said.So, why were the women in the outside world like this? Why would they think and speak so differently?Benjamin saw Rebecca coming in his direction, so he took out a mobile from his pocket. It resembled the old flip p

Selena came to Elizabeth’s room, when both Shawn and Elizabeth were present. She put a briefcase down on the bed and opened it.Elizabeth and her mother were shocked, as it was full of hundred dollar bills.“2 million dollars. Spend it carefully,” Selena told them. “Invest in some companies or buy some land if you want.”“Mother,” Elizabeth emotionally hugged Selena because she needed this money very much as she was planning on starting her accessory selling business. “Thank you so much!”Selena was a bit surprised because she knew how shameless Elizabeth could be, so she wasn’t expecting Elizabeth to get emotional like this. Still and all, Selena didn’t completely buy the emotions Elizabeth displayed right now.“Shawn, this money should also help you start a small insurance company,” Selena told him. “You don’t have to worry about finding a place for it because I can help you get a building next to Chen Complex.”“Chen Complex?” Shawn was quite surprised, whereas Elizabeth covered he

Veronica just finished bathing and was putting on one of those sexy outfits designed by her sister in the past. It revealed the entire midsection of the body, but hid everything else.Though Akash found it sexy, he said, “You really are not wearing that in the home, right?”“What’s wrong if I wear it?” Veronica retorted. “This isn’t even that revealing.”“Look at yourself in the mirror. It feels like I might catch a glimpse of your underboob if you were to raise your arms,” Akash said.Veronica squinted her eyes. “I’m wearing a bra underneath, you idiot. You know nothing about fashion. I’ve been bearing with your stupidity for a while now, but if I can’t even wear this type of clothing, then you should consider going back home and complaining to your parents about it! Because you need to really grow up!” After blurting out her anger through her words, she snorted and left the room.Standing by the balcony, she watched her father talking to guests downstairs.“This is meat tea, which D

Rebecca knocked on a door.“Who is it?” Roshan asked from the inside, a hint of anxiety in his voice.“It’s me,” Rebecca replied. “Open the door. I’ll just have a quick few words with you, that’s all.”“A-Aunt, I don’t want to talk to you right now,” Roshan replied. “Please go.”“I’ll talk with him,” Benjamin told her in a low voice. Rebecca then walked away and stopped at a certain distance.A minute later, Benjamin knocked on the door.“Hey, I’m Benjamin,” he said. “Can I talk to you?”“No, I’m busy right now,” Roshan answered.“It’ll only take a minute,” Benjamin persisted. “I won’t bother you afterward.”“Tsk,” Roshan, annoyed, walked over to the door.Benjamin knocked on the door again.Roshan quickly opened the door with a hostile look. “What?”Benjamin smiled and stepped closer and put his arm around Roshans’s shoulder. He then shut the door from behind him and even locked it without looking back.“W-What are you doing?” Roshan nervously asked.Even Rebecca, who was outside, co

George saw Rebecca alone, waiting outside Roshan’s room. He used this opportunity to come up to her.“What are you doing here, Rebecca? Did Roshan cause some trouble again?” George was folding his sleeves. “Let me teach him a lesson.”“Stop!” Rebecca hit his shin bone with her foot. Because of her footwear, he cringed in pain. “Why do you assume things? I’m standing here just because I want to. Nothing else.”“You expect me to believe that?” George harrumphed. “You are such a bad liar. The day you brought some random guy into the house and said you loved him and married him, everyone else might have believed your words but I didn’t. There’s no way someone like you who’s so capable can fall in love, much less marry a pizza-delivery guy. Compared to him, I’m so much better!”“You are wrong, George,” Rebecca calmly and confidently replied. “Benjamin…” she lightly smacked her own head. “Ahem, I mean, Benyamin is a billion times better than you. He doesn’t bend his spine for money like you

Benjamin closed Roshan’s eyes and showed him some of his memories.When Benjamin went to door-deliver pizza, a man was kicking his wife out for cheating on her. He married her even though she was a single mom, but just four months after their marriage, he found her cheating on him.There was another instant where Benjamin found the same girl on the same day in two different places, sleeping with two different guys, and she even asked Benjamin to fuck her on the stairs between the floors. She seduced him, but Benjamin scuttled away from her.After showing a series of troubles he came across on his job, he then showed the challenges he experienced every evening when Rebecca came to pick him up in her Porsche.Even though Benjamin was her husband, he would try to court his own wife by giving her flowers, or sweets, or a special pizza he personally made. He would praise her, saying he had never seen her use the rear-view mirror for applying lipstick like he had seen many other women do it
