Rebecca did not ask Benjamin what he had done with the 25,000 dollars or to whom he had given that money. However, she did use her sources to find out the identity of the woman and went to talk with her directly inside a random restaurant.And this woman told her, “I don’t know why you’re interested in your bodyguard’s affairs, ma’am, but why would a man give so much money to a woman like me? He’s not older than me, so I can’t call him a sugar daddy.So, I guess I’ll call him a sugar son?”Rebecca didn’t get upset by her words but carefully scrutinized her expression while stirring the spoon in the lemonade. “You expect me to believe that he’s interested in you? Do I look like I’m fucking stupid to you?”“I-I’m not young, but I’m still in good shape, ma’am,” she retorted. “If you don’t believe me, then there’s nothing I can do.”“Did my Mom put you up to this?” Rebecca asked.The woman was startled for a second.Rebecca took a check from her purse. She wrote ten thousand dollars on it

Benjamin was making his delivery during the evening on Sunday.His delivery point turned out to be a private masonic lodge. When Benjamin arrived there, he saw the symbols at their entrance and did not wish to enter the building. So, he called the person on his mobile and told them to come out and take the delivery.Moments later, two old men in black suits came out of the lodge. They weren’t his customers, but they saw Benjamin and could not take their eyes off of him.Benjamin did not like their gazes, but he ignored them.Still, they came closer to him with a smile on their faces. “You have the looks needed to become a top movie star. So, why are you delivering the pizzas? Have you ever tried auditioning for films?”“I’m not interested in acting,” Benjamin replied.“Don’t speak such profane things,” one of those two men took out his visiting card. “Take this and give us a call. We’ll introduce you to some important figures in the movie business. I’m sure they’ll give you a chance.”

Later that night.Benjamin came home late that night because had to take a bus, which didn’t come through the shortcut that Rebecca would use.When he entered the building, he was expecting Selena to be waiting for him at the couch, but she wasn’t there.Benjamin was quickly hurrying upstairs, but Kathy came over to him and said, “Madam Selena told me to collect money from you.”“I don’t trust you,” Benjamin said and then completely ignored her and went to his room.Kathy’s jaw slackened. “How rude. For an unpaid maid, why does he have so much ego?”Meanwhile, Benjamin entered the room, and Rebecca seemed to be waiting for him. However, the look in her eyes wasn’t cool but cold.“You are going to be standing on the couch tonight,” she said.“If I’m standing, how can I sleep?”“You have no other choice,” Rebecca indifferently said, “if you want to keep living in this room together with me, then you have to do it.”“T-That’s not fair,” Benjamin said, but she didn’t seem to care about hi

At around 6:15 in the morning.Rebecca opened her eyes. She quickly looked to her left to see if Benjamin was still there. And he was still sleeping, with his head put on the pillow. But no part of his body crossed the line.Rebecca did not regret allowing him to sleep on the bed because he didn’t cause any trouble. However, as she looked at him sleeping so defenselessly, she found herself staring at his face, which looked very bright as the morning light hit his face.His bright pink lips made her heart beat a little faster. Those were like the lips of a child and were full of life.She kept staring at him, pulling her lower lip into her mouth. (Control yourself, Rebecca. He’s a man. How can I lose my control over him when he didn’t lose his control?) She clenched her fist and then somehow managed to get off the bed.She did not make any sounds as it might wake him up. She quietly opened the door and walked out.She could hear the discussion happening in the hall downstairs.“Just wh

“Get up, you trash!”Selena’s strikes were like massaging to Benjamin, and it made him mumble in his sleep as he felt good.“Krgh, this buffalo isn’t feeling a thing,” she changed the target and began to strike his head this time.And this forced Benjamin to wake up quickly.“Eh? Mother-in-law,” Benjamin was rather shocked to see Selena holding a pillow and standing next to the bed. “What are you doing here? Why is there a pillow in your hands? Did you come here to give us another pillow? I think we have enough.”“As if I’d ever do that!” she threw the pillow in his face. “Why didn’t you wake up until now?”Benjamin rubbed his eyes and said, “Rebecca and I talked a lot last night. I slept late, so that’s why I couldn’t wake up early.”Selena gritted her teeth. “What did you two talk about for that long?”“About love,” Benjamin replied.Selena’s face slightly flushed even though she still looked angry. “W-What?” She couldn’t ask for further details and just walked out without saying an
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 708
For the next few weeks, Benjamin had tried various methods to get closer to Rebecca. He would tell her how good she looks and how nice she smells, and how beautiful her smile was, but she would act indifferent to his advances. When he tried to hold her hand, she would pull her hand away and spare a cold gaze at him.And at the same time, Selena was always trying to separate them, hoping one of those two would give up on the other before Rebecca got pregnant.Benjamin had to pay his salary and the tip-income to Selena. Though he was a little frustrated about it, he was also glad that Rebecca did not demand him for things like food or clothes.Then again, should he be happy that she wasn’t relying on him for anything?It had been a few months since they got married.There was no kissing.There was no hugging.No touch.No intimacy.When Benjamin got a little excited one evening and hugged Rebecca when she came to pick him up from his job, she got angry and then told him to live in a se

Back to the present.At dawn, Rebecca was sitting on the balcony, staring toward the south.“Are you living away separately from me because things didn’t work out between us for so long, Benjamin?” she wondered, with teary eyes. “Or, are you still not able to come to me for some reason?”Selena came over to her. “Rebecca, I’ve got good news for you. The Myers family has agreed to you becoming their brand ambassador. They’re willing to pay you 2 million dollars a year. Here are the documents. You can read the terms yourselves.”Rebecca, however, didn’t show any interest toward reading those documents. “Mom, I’m thinking of living in a separate house?”Selena’s heart wavered, and her gut shook at once. “W-What are you talking about?”“I want to spend some time alone by myself,” Rebecca said.“Don’t be foolish, Rebecca. If you go out now, you think Andrew Sehla will just stay put?” Selena quickly said. “He will have you kidnapped and then harass our entire family. He will also torture yo

In Shawn’s room.Shawn looking at a nude video of Sofia Bacic. “How is this possible? In the video, she clearly has the vagina, but I surely saw something else when I pulled her pants down. What the hell is going on? Does this mean this video is fake? Is she a he or a she? What is fake? What is real?” He was so confused and also terrified at the same time.Suddenly, the door was knocked.Shawn immediately shut the laptop, and then Selena entered the room. If he was a second late, she would have seen something she would have regretted. “M-Mom, what brought you here so early in the morning?”Elizabeth was still sleeping on the bed.“I need to talk to you about something,” Selena said. “Outside.”“Give me a minute,” he told her.After Selena left, he deleted the browsing history and then went to meet his mother on the rooftop.It’s been so long since both of them were together on the rooftop. Perhaps, the last time was more than twenty years ago.Shawn understood that she wanted to talk
