CHAPTER 158 It had been a while since Jacob stayed in the villa from morning to afternoon. Everyone else had already finished eating, but he didn’t. Usually, Kathy would have given him bed coffee every morning, but today, she didn’t. Not just that, but no maid cto clean his room, either.
Though Selena and the rest had eaten breakfast, he just couldn't because Ryan was also there. It just felt too awkward for him to be eating with his family when Ryan was around, as Jacob was used to being the leader of the family. Now, there was Ryan on one side and Selena on the other side. Both of them looked superior, and he was finding it hard to digest.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThere was no food or even drinking water in his room; the refrigerator was empty. So he was quite hungry. He waited until lunch, hoping Ryan wouldn’t cdownstairs and eat with the rest, but he did. Again, Jacob couldn't cout of his room. He hoped at least Kathy or Amber would bring him food, but they didn’t even cast a glance toward his room. How quickly can people change? Only a week ago, they would have their full attention on him whenever he was around, but now they were acting like he didn’t even exist. However, he didn’t blthem. After all, even his family members were treating him the same.
He lay down on his bed and tried to get ssleep, but then trains and city buses kept roaming in his belly. The vibrations and noises kept growing louder and louder by the minute.
“Ah, screw this. | can’t wait anymore.” He hoped that his wife would at least bring him something to eat, but he hit his limit.
Wanting to order food online, he grabbed his mobile. There was a text message from FaRomano: Because of our relationship, I will wait until your movies release, but if your movies fail, then | want exclusive rights to sof your other movies.
Jacob exhaled audibly. While Mike and many other friends betrayed, Fawas willing to wait, and he was also a straightforward person who would tell everything to the face. “I wonder if he’s still okay with his son marrying Veronica. If my movies work out, then it’s still possible.” His stomach growled once again. “Geez... you won't even letthink,” he slapped his abdomen and ended up hurting himself. He then ordered food online and waited. “They better be here on time.” w About 12 minutes later.
A pizza-delivery guy entered the Sterling villa with a bright smile on his face, for it was Benjamin. “A chance to deliver pizzas to Jacob? | surely didn’t expect this, haha. | can’t wait to see the look on his face when he takes the delivery. | just hope the maids won't spoil this.” Actually, the gate guard stopped Benjamin from entering and asked to give the delivery goods to him, but Benjamin knocked him out so he could enter the villa. He parked the bike, feeling nostalgic as he walked into the villa, wearing a helmet so others wouldn't recognize him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Who are you?” Amber, who was sitting at the dining table, stood, but then recognized his attire. “Ah, delivering pizza.” “Where's Mr. Jacob?” asked Benjamin in a throaty voice.
WILS “You can give it to me,” Amber suggested, licking her fingers because she was in the middle of eating “Are you going to givethe tip, too?” asked Benjamin. Amber paused for a second and pointed toward a room. “That's where the one you're looking for is staying at.” “Thought so,” Benjamin went over there and knocked on the door. It quickly opened, and Jacob pulled Benjamin inside.
“Whoa, easy,” Benjamin balanced himself, or the parcels would have fallen. “I ordered pizza as well as water. Did you bring both?” Jacob hastily asked.
“Of course,” Benjamin took four water bottles out.
“Great.” Jacob drank scold water, then sat down and began to eat the pizzas. “Mhm. I. never thought the crappy pizzas would taste this good. | guess hunger can really create miracles.” Jacob had already paid for the pizzas and the water, but he didn’t yet give the tip. Nevertheless, Benjamin wasn’t in a hurry. He sat down in a chair. “Your face looks shrunken. Haven't you been sleeping well lately?” Jacob looked at the man wearing a helmet. From the uniform with the seven candle stand logo of Rye’s Pizzas.
IS “I told the guard outside to bring the package secretly,” Jacob spoke while eating. “But even that guy doesn’t take my words seriously anymore. It's crazy how fast people’s attitudes can change really quickly depending on the weight and depth of our pockets.” “Anyway...” Jacob picked up his mobile. “I'll transfer 100 dollars, so tellyour number.” Benjamin casually said his number. Jacob typed the number, and the nBenjamin showed it in the app. His expression froze, and he put everything together. Pizza delivery. Rye’s Pizzas. Benjamin. Wearing a helmet. Jacob slowly turned his head to look at the pizza-delivery guy. “Are you...” Benjamin removed the helmet with great effort because his long beard made it difficult. Seeing his son-in-law, Jacob went speechless. His mouth was still open, and the half- chewed pizza was up for view. A fly toured inside, tasted a bit, and then flew out. “You seemed to like the pizza,” Benjamin was grinning from ear to ear. “I personally made it for you.” Jacob was about to spit the food out.
“Just kidding.” Benjamin patted the bag on his back. “The one | personally made is here, and I'm going to deliver this myself, so wishluck, father-in-law.” Veins swelled and throbbed in Jacob’s neck. “You have no shnor fear, do you? | kicked you in the face and warned you to never show your face around here, but you dared to deliver a pizza to me, and now you want to deliver one to my daughter?” he got off the bed. “I will break your nose and teeth and get your signature and thumb print this tso you can never Previous Chapter Next Chapter
