Benjamin hushed her gently, placing a finger on her lips. "You have the right to use everything in this place, okay?" he reassured.

Cordelia nodded and asked, "Are you sure you're not just saying that to be polite?"

Benjamin grinned, "I don't say things just to be polite. You have that chance and also you genuinely looked beautiful, and I enjoyed watching you."

Cordelia blushed slightly, "Well, in that case, thank you for the compliment."

Benjamin chuckled, "Anytime. So, what made you decide to have a midnight swim?"

Cordelia sighed, "Just needed a break from everything, you know? The water has this calming effect on me.”

Benjamin nodded. “ No problem have fun then.” He said

“Why not join me?” Cordelia asked in a soft tone.

“Join you?” Benjamin chuckled. “I don't know how to swim so I dare not, have fun yourself.” He said

“Well I can teach you how to swim, just simple, at least the little steps.” She sId.

Huh? Benjamin thought for a while before shaking his head.

    Moving out? What's wrong? It's not even the 20th day yet, right? We're only on the 9th day.Cordelia nodded and said, "I know, I'll give you back the balance.""Wait, why? Did I do anything wrong?" Benjamin asked."No, not at all. I just have to go to the next city to do something. I'll be going with my friend, and it's very important," she explained. "I didn't know it would be that fast; she informed me hours ago.""Your friend? You mean Hannah?" he asked.Cordelia nodded and said, "Yes, Hannah. It's just something to attend to, that's why. I didn't know it would be that fast; she informed me hours ago.""Is there any problem that I can help you with?" Benjamin inquired."No, not at all. You shouldn't worry much, Benjamin. I'll be fine," she reassured him.Benjamin nodded and asked, "So, when will you be back then?"Cordelia shook her head and explained that she didn't know, but it might take two weeks or more.Benjamin nodded and said, "Okay, take care when you go.

    "Shut up!" Marshall stepped on his foot. "If you try to advise me against what I want again, I'll throw you on the street. You're just a dog here, and yours is to follow instructions and do what I request of you, understood?”The butler lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry for speaking that way. Forgive me.""Sorry for yourself, know how to stay within your limits. Now tell me, does she have a boyfriend where she is?" Marshall asked.The butler shook his head and said, "To the information I gathered last time, she doesn't. She's teaching in a big university there called the Elysian University. She has only one friend, a lady. Apart from that, nothing else."Marshall gritted his teeth. "Is she that dumb? Even with all the money she could have made, she decided to go and work as a teacher for how much?" He cursed under his breath. "It's good she's not in any relationship; I would have killed whoever was in a relationship with her. We must find a way to bring her back; you have until t

    Benjamin gave Irene a cold look before he stood up and said, "Class, Ms. Winslow won't be here anymore for maybe weeks or even a month. She asked me to inform you all."The news struck a wave of disappointment among the students."No, that's bad; she's the best teacher we have.""I hope everything is okay with her. She's so nice!""Who will take her place? We'll miss her classes.”Benjamin, observing the reactions, sighed and then walked out of the class. Walking out of the class, he took his phone out and texted his two friends, and they agreed to meet at the school canteen, where food was sold.Without wasting time, Benjamin walked straight there. Upon arriving, he saw Austin and Matthew, both perfectly dressed, sitting down.Immediately, they saw him, and all three of them had smiles on their faces. "Hey, Benjamin, I didn't expect you in. I heard you killed a shark; is that true?" Austin asked.Matthew nodded and said, "We heard you killed a shark for the sake of Ms. Winslow. Man,

    Meanwhile, at the Market Square manager's office, Sarah, now the manager, was dressed impeccably in a blue office suit. Her focus was evident as she diligently worked on her laptop, engaged in what seemed to be calculations. Thanks to her endless plea to Benjamin, she had narrowly avoided being fired and was given a month to prove herself as the square manager.Deeply engrossed in her work, Sarah's concentration was disrupted by the ringing of her phone. Glancing at the screen, she noticed the caller was her friend, Dorothy Foster. Seeing Dorothy's name brought a slight frown to Sarah's face, as it was due to Dorothy that she had unknowingly offended Benjamin, a significant figure. Setting aside her work, Sarah answered the call and inquired, "Hello Dorothy, what's up?”"Hey, Sarah, it's been almost a week since I heard from you. What's up? Where have you been?" Dorothy asked.Sarah rolled her eyes and replied, "Actually, I'm working now, so I'm very busy. It's a demanding job, you kn

    Cordelia, with a resolute gaze, declared, "Love isn't part of the equation for me, and I have no intention of changing that.”Hannah smiled and said, "Of course, you are, but you won't know until you realize it yourself. The hard Cordelia who hated to do anything with a man has been kissed, even aww, how nice."Cordelia frowned and said, "It's not funny; you're mocking me instead of helping me figure out what's wrong with me."Hannah laughed and teased, "You've gotten loveria, a disease that makes one overthink about their lovers." She mocked, "You!”Cordelia was about to respond when suddenly her phone started ringing. She took it, and to her surprise, the name "Benjamin" was on the caller ID.She turned to look at Hannah without a word. Hannah, with a surprised smile, winked at her, saying, "He's calling. Quickly answer, my dear.”Without wasting time, Cordelia answered on loudspeaker, attaching the phone to her ear without saying a word."Oh, you're already awake? At this early t

    Soon, the waitress returned, skillfully balancing a tray loaded with Benjamin's order. She placed the Grilled Salmon with Lemon Butter Sauce before him, accompanied by a generous serving of Garlic Mashed Potatoes and a colorful array of Roasted Vegetables. The tantalizing aroma of the dish filled the air, enticing his taste buds.To complement the meal, she served a tall glass of Mango Tango Juice, its vibrant color adding a refreshing touch to the table. “Enjoy sir.” The waitress said before walking out. Without wasting time, Benjamin started eating. As he continued savoring the delicious flavors, he noticed two people walking in, which made him stunned. Dorothy and Sarah, both looking beautiful.Dorothy was the first to see Benjamin, which left her stunned. "Look, that idiot is also here eating," she remarked.It was at that moment Sarah also looked, and that was when she saw her boss, Benjamin. The smile on her face quickly disappeared; she was stunned."Be.. Be.. Boss Benjamin?"

    As Benjamin approached, he noticed smoke rising in the air, a clear sign of a fire burning nearby, perhaps for cooking or warmth. The atmosphere felt serene, with the distant hills adding to the picturesque setting. The surroundings were filled with the soft rustling of leaves and the occasional chirping of birds.Frowning lightly, Benjamin moved closer to the place, wondering who might be living in this secluded countryside spot. He walked slowly towards the hut, his senses heightened as he approached. When he finally reached the clearing, he was amazed at what lay before him. The place seemed like a martial arts haven frozen in time.The ground was marked with the imprints of countless training sessions, and old martial arts training sticks leaned against the hut, weathered but still sturdy. Tires hung from ropes, swaying gently in the breeze. The surrounding trees added to the ambiance, casting shadows that danced across the training ground.To his amazement, upon closer inspectio

    The old man turned back, his gaze piercing. "You're persistent, but this is not a challenge you want to take.""Why not?" Benjamin challenged. "Are you afraid of losing to someone younger? Is that it?"The old man shook his head, a wry smile on his face. "It's not about age; it's about experience and wisdom. You lack both.”Benjamin scoffed, "I may lack experience, but I'm not lacking in courage. Let's see if your wisdom can match up to my determination."The old man sighed, recognizing the unyielding spirit before him. "Fine, have it your way. But remember, you asked for it.”As the old man accepted the challenge, he walked towards Benjamin with measured steps. Benjamin, undeterred and ready to prove himself, locked eyes with the seasoned martial artist. He anticipated the upcoming clash, his mind swirling with possible tricks and tactics to gain an advantage. “I must teach him a little lesson.” Benjamin muttered. Bang!” In a burst of energy, Benjamin lunged forward with a decepti

    One of the officers adjusted his cap and asked, “Has it been 24 hours since he went missing?”Rudra shook his head, his frustration evident. “Not yet. But at the very least, they should have called by now—something, anything.” His voice was laced with unease, his mind struggling to make sense of the situation.The officer gave a reassuring nod. “Don’t worry, Mr. Stone. We’ll begin our investigation right away. We already have their pictures, which will make it much easier to track them down.”Rose exhaled shakily, gripping Rudra’s arm, while he gave the officers a curt nod. “Alright then. We trust you to find him.”The officers exchanged a glance before stepping out, their expressions turning serious as they walked toward their patrol car.As soon as they left, Rose turned to Rudra, her hands trembling. “What if—”Rudra cupped her face gently. “No what-ifs, Rose. We’ll find him. I promise you, everything will be fine.”She swallowed hard, nodding despite the fear in her eyes, holding

    Moments later, Rose Stone opened the door, her brows furrowing in concern. “Is something wrong?” she asked.Collins gestured toward the garage. “Mrs. Stone, I noticed you have a security camera outside. Does it record activity in the driveway or the street?”Rose’s expression brightened slightly as if a small glimmer of hope had sparked. “Yes, it should. We have a surveillance system installed. It records continuously.”Parker stepped forward. “Would it be possible to review the footage? It might give us a clue as to when your son left and if anyone else was in the area at the time.”“Of course,” Rose said quickly, opening the door wider. “Rudra! The officers need to see the security footage!”A moment later, Rudra Stone appeared in the foyer, his phone still in hand. “The footage? From the camera?” he asked, glancing between the officers and his wife.“Yes, Mr. Stone,” Collins replied. “It could be a critical lead. If your son left the house from this driveway, the footage might show

    Rudra’s response came swiftly. “Police? That’s not right. We don’t even know if something serious has happened.”“I’m telling you, Rudra,” Rose said firmly, “something feels off. I’ve tried all of his friends, and none of them have heard from him either. We need to file a missing person’s report.”Rudra paused. She could almost picture him pinching the bridge of his nose in annoyance. “Rose, please. Let’s give it a little more time. You know how the police can be—once they start asking questions, it becomes a whole incident. He might just come waltzing in later tonight, laughing at us for worrying.”Rose’s voice tightened. “And what if that doesn’t happen? I don’t care about the inconvenience. My son could be in danger!”A tense silence crackled between them. Finally, Rudra spoke, quieter this time. “Alright. I’ll head home as soon as I can so we can discuss it together.”An hour later, the familiar rumble of Rudra Stone’s car pulling into the driveway echoed through the house. Rose q

    “I was just—” Maverick swallowed hard. “I said that to Brianna because… because I wanted her attention. I made it up. I swear! I didn’t think it’d get back to you!”Austin glanced at his brother, a flicker of frustration dancing in his eyes. He didn’t buy it. “You expect us to believe you’d throw around a rumor like that for no reason?”Maverick clenched his fists behind his back, the rope digging into his wrists. “I—had issues with Benjamin before,” he admitted, voice trembling. “But I wouldn’t do anything to him. I’m not a killer. You have to believe me.”Matthew let go of Maverick’s chin, straightening up. He exchanged a look with Austin, who ran a hand through his hair in exasperation. The same dead end, over and over.“You keep saying that,” Austin muttered, pacing in a small circle. “But Benjamin’s missing, possibly dead, and you’re the only lead we’ve got. You’d better come up with something.”“I can’t give you what I don’t have,” Maverick pleaded, breathing heavily, his waterl

    Benjamin glanced at Cipherella, a subtle smile tugging at his lips. “Your hacking will also give us access to incriminating data. If you can tap into phone records, emails—anything tying Darnell to political figures or top officials—we’ll use that as leverage. The more dirt we have, the more isolated he becomes.” “We want to scare off corrupt politicians and bankers who enable him. When they realize we can expose them, they’ll abandon Darnell to protect themselves. That weakens his connections even more.” “While we’re dismantling Darnell’s network,” Benjamin said, nodding at Abdelkarim, “we place you front and center, building alliances with smaller gangs or influential locals who hate Darnell. Show them there’s a better alternative.” “Meanwhile, Cipherella will manage intel—gathering contact info, forging secure communication channels, and ensuring Darnell doesn’t learn too much about us.” “Eventually, we’ll lure him to a vulnerable position—somewhere away from his heavily guarded

    Abdelkarim smiled proudly, his eyes gleaming with satisfaction at the selection. “This, master, is Fatteh,” he said, pointing to the large bowl of creamy yogurt sauce layered over crispy pita bread, chickpeas, and a golden drizzle of ghee, topped with pine nuts and fresh parsley. He moved his finger to the next dish. “And this is Kibbeh, spiced lamb wrapped in bulgur and fried to a crispy perfection.” Next, he gestured toward a sizzling plate of skewers. “Shish Tawook, tender chicken marinated in garlic, lemon, and paprika, served with flatbread,” he explained, the warm scent of grilled meat filling the space. To his left, a bowl of Mujadara caught Benjamin’s eye—earthy lentils and rice topped with caramelized onions. Abdelkarim pointed at it. “That’s Mujadara. Simple, but hearty and full of flavor.” He then reached for a bowl of hummus and Baba Ghanoush. “And these are two of our staples—Hummus, made from chickpeas and tahini, and Baba Ghanoush, a smoky eggplant dip,” he said, his p

    The rugged man clenched his fists, his pride warring with his fear. “You can’t be serious,” he hissed, his voice barely above a whisper.Abdelkarim cocked the gun audibly, tilting his head. “Do I look like I’m joking?”Reluctantly, the rugged man lowered himself to his knees, the humiliation evident on his face. His companions followed suit, each moving with visible hesitation. The restaurant’s patrons and staff watched in stunned silence, their eyes wide as they bore witness to the surreal scene.One of the men reached for Abdelkarim’s shoe, his hand shaking as he wiped at it with his sleeve. Abdelkarim smirked, glancing down at their feeble attempts. “Pathetic,” he muttered. “Put some effort into it.”As the men continued their reluctant task, Abdelkarim’s tone turned colder. “Now, let’s add some respect to the mix. Each of you will address me properly while you’re down there.”The rugged man looked up, his face twisted with fury and shame. “What do you mean?”Abdelkarim leaned in s

    The room fell into an eerie silence, the earlier chatter and laughter evaporating like smoke. All eyes were on Abdelkarim, who stood tall with the gun firmly in his grasp. Even the rugged man who had slapped him seemed caught off guard, his eyes widening in a mix of disbelief and anger.Benjamin, who had been calmly observing moments earlier, straightened in his seat, his sharp gaze narrowing as he assessed the situation. He hadn't anticipated this escalation, and for a fleeting moment, his surprise flickered across his face. Cipherella, sitting beside him, froze, her lips parting slightly as her eyes darted between Abdelkarim and the scarred man.The tension was palpable. The rugged man pushed his chair back slightly, his hands clenching into fists as if ready to retaliate. His companions, who had been laughing moments ago, now looked uneasy, their confidence shaken."You think this is funny?" Abdelkarim said, his voice steady, but the undercurrent of anger was unmistakable. He point

    The room went tense as Abdelkarim froze, his gaze darting nervously to the man’s threatening expression. Around them, a few other patrons glanced over.Cipherella’s delicate brows furrowed with concern as she leaned closer to Benjamin, her voice barely above a whisper. "Master, they’re trying to bully him," she said, her eyes darting between Abdelkarim and the rugged man.Benjamin didn’t respond immediately. His sharp gaze remained fixed on the scene, observing every detail—the posture of the men, Abdelkarim’s unease, and the simmering tension in the air. Finally, he nodded slowly and said, "Let’s just watch for now.”"But Master—" Cipherella started, her worry evident."Relax," Benjamin interrupted gently, his tone calm but firm. "Let’s see how he handles himself first. If things go too far, I’ll step in."Cipherella hesitated, but she trusted Benjamin’s judgment. She bit her lip and stayed quiet, her hands clasped tightly in her lap as her eyes returned to Abdelkarim.Meanwhile, Abd
