CHAPTER 47 Oliver parked his car at a supermarket close to the Sterling villa. He paid the guard a thousand dollars and told him to keep the car safe, and the guard gladly obliged. Oliver bought products worth eight thousand dollars from the supermarket, three-fourth of which went for buying various kinds of quality meat. He returned to the villa and began cooking the kobe beef first. “I’ve tried kobe burgers before, but I never thought I’d eat full-blown kobe dinner. Hahaha.”

As he was very much involved in cooking, Devon sneaked up on him and struck his head with a wooden stick. Oliver fell unconscious before he could even turn to look who hit him. Devon took the platinum card from him and ran away.

The smell of the kobe beef attracted Vlad and Mercie to the kitchen. They went upstairs and called their mother. Bella came to the kitchen and cooked kobe curry, all the while Oliver was lying unconscious on the floor. Vlad ate the curry while sitting on Oliver’s body, and they really liked it. After the children left, Bella sprayed water on Oliver’s face, waking him up. “Couldn’t you find a better place to sleep than the kitchen? And that too in the middle of making a meal?”

“S-Sorry, Madam, Oliver apologized and left the kitchen. He hurried to the dorms, doubting Devon, but to his surprise, Devon was still in his bed, mumbling vague things. “He’s not the one who hit me?” Oliver wondered.

He then kept roaming throughout the dorms and the villa, looking at every butler and maid he came across. Who could have possibly stolen the card from him? Not knowing who hit him in the head utterly frustrated him. “Whoever you are, I’ll never forgive you!” At the same time, elsewhere in the villa.

Louis was sitting in the much decorated living room on the first floor, with Benjamin for company.

Benjamin had been sitting for the past fifteen minutes because Louis had called for him, but Louis hadn’t spoken a word yet. “Why did you call for me, Brother-in-law?” Benjamin asked. “You know who paid a visit to Rebecca yesterday, don’t you?” Louis said, to which Benjamin nodded half-heartedly. “He’s a guy who spends more money buying things in a month than what our family earns in one whole year. He gifts yachts to his girlfriends, leaves Lamborghinis and Ferraris to his security guards. Now that his eyes fell on Rebecca, you think you can compete with him?” Benjamin faintly smiled, surprising Louis. “Rebecca doesn’t care about money or power, like my in-laws do, which is why she even married me in the first place.” “You are probably right, but that doesn’t mean she won’t change her mind. People change… all the time. For instance, no one knows this, but Rebecca used to love someone back in her university days. However, he broke her heart.”
