CHAPTER 79

After a long time, everyone in the Sterling family was present again at the dining table during dinner.

The maids Kathy, Delle, Ashley, and Amber were all serving. All of them subtly showered their love on Jacob, taking turns, to put food on his plate. Naturally, Jacob was in a good and positive mood. “Dad,” Shawn glanced at his father, “I heard from one of your friends that your two upcoming movies together have a budget of 650 million. Is that true?” The number 650 million shocked almost everyone at the table, except Selena and Benjamin. “Don’t you think it’s too fisky?” Shawn said. “Putting all of your assets into just two films?” “Are you telling me how to produce films now?” Jacob chortled. “You don’t multiply your assets without taking risks.”

Shawn didn’t say anything, but he didn’t look pleased. “My husband is just worried about the worst-case scenario, that’s all,” Elizabeth said and laughed all by herself, but when she glanced at her parents, they joined her as well.

“Dad, when are you movies going to release?” Veronica asked. “My friends keep asking me.”

“Yes, grandpa,” Roshan also voiced his mind. “Especially the superhero movie. My friends and I are eagerly waiting for that.”

“Haha,” Jacob leaked out a throaty laughter of expert smokers. “The action thriller will be premiering at the end of this month and will release next month.”

“Wow, so we can watch it this month?” Both Veronica and Roshan got visibly excited. Lisa was thinking of watching it with Nate, but she knew it’d be impossible since she would be expected to come to the movie premiere with the whole family.

her frown. (Did she get impressed by what he did the other night at the party? She’s too simple!) Veronica just looked plain shocked. (Sis, how can you kiss that trash?) Selena’s bowels boiled with overflowing resentment at Benjamin. She shot daggers at him. Rebecca went a step further. “Can you all pray that Benjamin and I will stay together forever?” she now kissed the hand she was holding. While Benjamin’s heart was flooded with happiness, the same couldn’t be said for others sitting at
