VKBoyHey, everyone. We've hit 250 chapters! Feels surreal! Only 250 more to go.... just kidding. I hope the recent chapters were entertaining, as I've been trying to flesh out the characters. After the party begins, the story will be entering into its meatiest part. Will Benyamin become the new son-in-law? Is Benjamin dead for good? All these and more will be answered. From thereon, the savviness you've all probably been waiting for will come to the fore. Dare I say, keep your expectations as high as Veronica's high-waisted skirts, or as great as Benjamin's love. Cheers, y'all.

CHAPTER 251
“That’s the Supreme Bank’s Black Eagle!” Veronica covered her mouth in shock after seeing the card that Benyamin just pulled out.“Is that card that great?” Lisa asked curiously in a low voice.“You don’t know?” Veronica almost mocked Lisa with her gaze. “Only those who spend more than a million dollars a month are eligible to apply for those cards, but not everyone gets it! If there’s a card that billionaires fight for, it’s that card! The services it offers overshadows every other credit card in existence. It’s definitely the rarest credit card in the world!”“What?” Lisa’s jaw dropped.The total bill was 862,378 dollars. Benyamin tipped 137,622 dollars so the total would add up to 1 million.Lisa fell utterly silent. She had never seen anyone tip such a huge amount. Even her school friends who would exaggerate things only gave a few thousand dollars as tip. She began looking at Benyamin in a totally different light now. And she wasn’t the only one.As they exited the shopping mall
CHAPTER 252
Once they got out of the car, Benyamin was stretching. Veronica took a full-view of his body. “I didn’t notice it, but he’s got a nice bum,” Veronica whispered to Lisa. “Only now?” Lisa looked down on Veronica. “That’s the first thing I noticed!” “You little perv,” Veronica rapped Lisa’s head with her knuckles. “Aw, stop,” Lisa slapped Veronica’s hand and said, “but seriously, I saw you crushing on him in the shopping mall, too. What’s going on? Did he become your new crush?” “I was just admiring him, you little fool,” Veronica slapped the back of Lisa’s head, which she hated. “Brother Benyamin,” Lisa called out for him, making him turn his head toward her. “My sister says she admires you so much.” Veronica was wide-eyed. “W-When did I say that?” she went back into the car and hid herself, feeling so embarrassed. “I wasn’t the one who said that. It was my sister!” Her voice was loud enough to reach Rebecca. Rebecca’s jaw hung open. “What?” she looked at Benyamin, and he faintly
CHAPTER 253
“You will do what?” Selena raised her voice against her daughter. “Have you gone insane?” Rebecca, however, didn’t even look at her mother. Her focus was on Remedeus and his drunken father. “Mr. Fabio, right? Are your legs hurting as well?” “Rebecca!” Selena fumed, but Rebecca again didn’t spare a glance at her mother. Fabio, however, quickly nodded like a hungry little hound. If Rebecca were to really massage his legs, forget about his son, Fabio would be the first one to stand in the line! He might even gift her some of his theater sites if she satisfied him. “Alright, but it’ll be 100 million for one session,” Rebecca said, making the father and the son go silent for a moment. The price was so high, all the drunkenness left Fabio’s face. “So that means, you two will be owing me a lot after canceling the debt. So, do you guys have the money? Show me the money first, and then we’ll talk about the massaging.” Fabio was no longer smiling. “Hmph, what an arrogant woman you are. Is t
CHAPTER 254
“Mom was right,” Rebecca was talking to herself after walking out of Ryan’s room. “You can’t trust anyone when it comes to money.” As she remembered how her own mother had kept Rebecca’s money with her, she smiled rather helplessly.Some of the moneylenders who were playing cards were staring at her without blinking as she passed by. She could see the lust in their eyes, even though some of them were trying to smile politely.“How would these moneylenders have behaved if it was Mom who owed them money and not Dad?” Rebecca didn’t even want to think about it. At the moment, as she felt gazes from every direction, she started feeling insecure for being born as a woman.Rebecca then went to Benyamin’s room. He was resting on his bed, but after he heard the knocking, he rushed to the door and opened it quickly as though he knew she was outside. He welcomed her in with a bright countenance. “Come inside, please.”Rebecca entered his room a little hesitantly. It used to be a guest room in t
CHAPTER 255
After finishing the phone call with Jane, Rebecca began looking throughout the villa for Benjamin once again, checking every room she could. She didn’t ask anyone if there was Benjamin inside, or if they had seen him. There were 83 moneylenders in total, and they didn’t make it any easier for her to look for Benjamin. One of them even touched her dress and hair; there was a group of them, so Rebecca couldn’t fight back, either.In the end, she went to her young sister who was still busy decorating for the upcoming party. Akash was taking a nap in the background, hugging the suit that Veronica had bought for him.“Veronica, which maid was talking about Benjamin in the morning?” Rebecca straightforwardly asked. “Amber? Kathy? Or was it Delle?”Though Rebecca seemed calm, Veronica could see the suppressed rage in her sister’s eyes. “It’s not their fault, sis. It’s Benjamin’s fault. You should find him first. Let’s go and talk to Brother Louis,” she suggested. “He can help us.”Though Reb
CHAPTER 256
Rebecca hid away her emotions as she saw George coming up to her.“Rebecca, what are you doing here alone?” George plopped himself next to her. “You don’t mind if I sit here, do you?” he asked her after he had already sat beside her, which she naturally disliked.She was getting up.“Wait,” he grabbed her hand, startling her. A glare from her made him let go of her.“I wanted to share chips and water, that’s all,” George asserted, reaching for her hand once again. “Come on.”Rebecca moved a step away. “I saw you flirting with Delle at the shopping mall. And you were using my brother’s card, too. You thought I wasn’t noticing all that?” her words shook his heart. “If you aren’t going to tell everything to Elizabeth, my mom, and my dad by tomorrow morning, I’ll tell them myself.”George’s face turned pale. “W-Why can’t I be with Delle when you can be Benjamin who’s a lot worse than Delle?”“What did you say?” Rebecca immediately slapped him.George got so angry his chest was moving, but
CHAPTER 257
Jacob was a big man. His attacks packed a pretty punch, but the Kimmy Brothers also had big frames. They assaulted Jacob together by dealing a few quick punches, then lifted him up by his shoulders and smashed him down on the bed.If not for the memory foam and metal coils in the mattress cushioning the fall, Jacob would have gotten injured, and even the bed might have broken.“Dad!” Veronica yelled in worry, but seeing her father touch his neck and cry in pain, she was enraged. She jumped at Elder Kimmy, but he easily grabbed her arms. She kicked him in the nuts, making him wince in pain.“You bitch!” Younger Kimmy slapped Veronica so hard so his face turned a thousand times uglier.“You bastards!” Selena screamed. “Get out of here!”However, the Younger Kimmy snickered. She found her suffering amusing. “Hehe, give us the money. That’s all we’ve been asking.”Just then, Rebecca managed to push her way through the guys blocking the way to that room because she had a gun in her hand. S
CHAPTER 258
After dinner, Selena and Rebecca went to their rooms. Veronica joined Akash in preparing the upcoming event. All the hired workers were quite busy, doing the final decorations.“It’s a big day for us tomorrow,” Akash’s voice was full of hope. “If this clicks, we’ll become popular event managers soon.”“Of course, it’s going to click,” Veronica assured him. “I wasn’t sure, but you worked well.” She lightly kissed him on the cheek, surprising him.Akasha blushed, immediately. “What was that for?”“You deserved that,” she casually said. “Don’t think too much about it.”He rubbed his cheek. “It’s easy for you to say,” he mumbled. Getting kissed by her felt both good and weird. He wanted to shift his focus from it, so he said, “Events this big take place either for business, political, or social reasons. This one’s clearly not a social gathering, so either business or political deals are going to take place tomorrow. If everyone’s happy with the deals, our hard work will get noticed as wel
