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 came to
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.
There 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 come downstairs and eat with the rest, but he did. Again, Jacob couldn’t come out 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 blame them. After all, even his family members were treating him the same.
He lay down on his bed and tried to get some sleep, 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. I 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 Fabio Romano: Because of our
relationship, I will wait until your movies release, but if your movies fail, then I want exclusive rights to some of your other movies.
Jacob exhaled audibly. While Mike and many other friends betrayed, Fabio was 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 let me think,” he slapped his abdomen and
ended up hurting himself. He then ordered food online and waited. “They better be here on time.”

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? I surely didn’t expect this, haha. I can’t wait to see the look on his face when he takes the delivery. I 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.
“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.

“You can give it to me,” Amber suggested, licking her fingers because she was in the middle of eating “Are you going to give me
the 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 some cold water, then sat down and began to eat the pizzas. “Mhm. I. never thought the crappy pizzas
would taste this good. I 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.

“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 tell me your number.” Benjamin casually said his number.
Jacob typed the number, and the name Benjamin 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 I personally made is here, and I’m going to deliver this myself, so
wish me luck, father-in-law.”
Veins swelled and throbbed in Jacob’s neck. “You have no shame nor fear, do you? I 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 time so you can never
