Rise Of The Student Billionaire   Chapter 292: The Ballers Excellence Party Day
The manager, visibly shaken, reached for a card from her drawer. "Here, sir," she said, her tone deferential. "Sorry for any inconvenience. That's your invitation ticket."Benjamin accepted the ticket with a nod of thanks, tucking it neatly into his suit pocket. As he turned to leave, the manager made a quick call, arranging for a box of clothes to be delivered to him.Moments later, Benjamin received the box and headed for the exit. Pausing at the door, he cast a meaningful glance back at the manager."I don't want anyone hearing about this card," he warned, his voice low but firm. "You know I can crumble your company in a few seconds."The manager nodded hastily. "Rest assured, sir," she assured him. "No fly is hearing about it."With that, Benjamin exited the office. At exactly 8 PM, Rose stood before her bedroom mirror, her reflection bathed in the soft glow of the vanity lights. She was dressed in a stunning gown of deep crimson, its flowing fabric hugging her curves in all the
Rise Of The Student Billionaire   Chapter 293: Raymond-Shulamite Arrives
As Raymond and Shulamite got down, all eyes were on them. Although everyone there was rich, most were aware the Hansen family were also very rich. Most of the guys were stealing glances at Shulamite who looked very beautiful too. Raymond scanned the elegant surroundings with a confident smile, his eyes flickering as he sought out familiar faces in the crowd. Yet, despite his best efforts, Cordelia's presence remained elusive, prompting a subtle furrow of his brow.Clearing his throat, he addressed those nearby, his tone laced with curiosity. "The Winslows aren't here yet?”A voice responded from the periphery, echoing Raymond's query. "Not yet. They are the last, I guess we should be waiting for."Accepting the explanation with a nod, Raymond settled into a nearby seat at the round table, his posture exuding a composed assurance even as he continued to cast occasional glances around the room. Shulamite, accompanying
Rise Of The Student Billionaire   Chapter 294: Ballers Introduction
Getting towards the table, her eyes scanned for Benjamin, but she couldn't spot him amidst the sea of faces. Nevertheless, she composed herself gracefully and took her seat at the head of the table, her eyes sweeping over the guests before settling on Cordelia, Rose, and Raymond. "Good evening, everyone," she said, her voice carrying with it an air of authority. "I trust you're all enjoying the evening so far? "I'm delighted to welcome you all to this exclusive ballers party, hosted here at our esteemed hotel. It's truly a pleasure to see so many young and influential individuals gathered here tonight."As she spoke, the guests responded with enthusiastic applause. "Our aim in hosting this event," she continued, her gaze sweeping across the room, "is to provide a platform for networking, collaboration, and celebration among the elite young professionals of Copenhagen. Tonight, we come together to celebrate success, forge new connections, and create lasti
Rise Of The Student Billionaire   Chapter 295: The Game Proposal
Raymond at that time wanted to speak making claims of Cordelia being his girlfriend, but he was afraid she might shut him which would bring disgrace so he didn't say a word. As Cordelia received praise and attention from the guests, Rose struggled to conceal her envy behind a forced smile. Her eyes betrayed her true feelings, flickering with jealousy and frustration. Cordelia's confident assertion of her status as the eldest mistress of the Winslow family struck a nerve with Rose.Internally, Rose seethed with resentment. She had hoped to assert her own status during the introductions, but Cordelia's confident declaration stole her thunder.Raymond at that time wanted to speak making claims of Cordelia being his girlfriend, but he was afraid she might shut him which would bring disgrace so he didn't say a word.

Raymond's proposal hung in the air like an unexpected gust of wind, leaving everyone momentarily stunned. The place buzzed with a mix of surprises as the implications of his suggestion sank in.Cordelia's expression transformed in an instant, her initial happiness giving way to a flicker of disgust. The idea of such a crude and inappropriate reward unsettled her, and she exchanged a swift, incredulous glance. Cordelia cleared her throat, her voice cutting through the uneasy silence that had settled over. "I must say, Raymond, that adding such a... personal element to the game doesn't seem appropriate," she began, her tone firm yet diplomatic. "We're here to enjoy a friendly competition, not to engage in antics that could potentially make anyone uncomfortable.”Shulamite nodded in agreement, her expression mirroring Cordelia's sentiments. "I agree," she chimed in, her voice steady. "We should focus on the financial aspect of the game and leave out any... extraneous rewards."Raymond's
Rise Of The Student Billionaire   Chapter 297: Benjamin Sees Cordelia
The woman cleared her throat to gather everyone's attention before speaking. "Everyone, meet our last guest, Mr. Benjamin Hayes," she announced, stepping aside to reveal Benjamin's face clearly.A gulp echoed in the room as Cordelia raised her eyebrow instantly and turned her gaze towards Benjamin. What she saw made her heart race and her mind whirl with confusion. It was Benjamin, but how? He was in Elysian, also in a coma. Could it be an illusion?At the same moment, Benjamin's eyes met Cordelia's, and he couldn't help but smile. Everything about her seemed perfect, from her dress to the watch he had given her."Cordelia?" Benjamin heard her call out, as if to confirm whether he was real or just a figment of her imagination."Hello, Ms. Winslow," Benjamin greeted softly.Cordelia's mind reeled as she struggled to comprehend the reality before her. "Oh my God," she murmured, feeling overwhelmed. She rubbed her eyes, hoping it was all just a dream.But Benjamin reassured her with a ge
Rise Of The Student Billionaire   Chapter 298: Benjamin Indirectly Helps Cordelia
Cordelia turned to Benjamin, a faint blush coloring her cheeks as she explained the kiss part of the game. "Well, Benjamin, it's a tradition in this game that the winner of each round gets to choose someone for a kiss as a reward," she began, her voice soft but tinged with amusement. "It's all in good fun, of course, but I understand if it seems a bit unconventional.”Cordelia didn't feel comfortable at first when Benjamin wasn't around, but now that he was around, she was sure he was going to win and if he wins he would of course kiss her which she wouldn't have any problem with. Benjamin nodded and said, "Interesting." He smirked and took his seat, settling in for the game. Cordelia followed suit, her gaze briefly meeting Benjamin's before focusing on her own preparations.“Interesting, as if he'll win.” Raymond said coldly. His remark drew Benjamin's attention, and he turned to face him with a raised eyebrow. "Mr. Hansen, are you so confident that you'll win?" he inquiredRaymond
Rise Of The Student Billionaire   Chapter 299: Balance Reveal
Cordelia took a deep breath, her mind still reeling from Benjamin's gesture. As the woman took charge, she began the process of revealing each participant's financial standing. "Let's start with Alexander Johansen," she announced, prompting Alexander to speak up."In my savings account, I have an amount of $2.5 million," Alexander declared confidently, raising his phone to display the balance for everyone to see.The gathered guests glanced at the screen, acknowledging Alexander's declared wealth with nods of approval.Next in line was Isabella Nordstrom, who smiled as she shared her own financial status. "I have a whopping $3 million here," Isabella announced proudly, lifting her phone to showcase her balance to the group.Once again, the guests directed their attention to the screen, taking note of Isabella's substantial wealth.Raymond couldn't resist a jab, turning to Alexander with a mocking tone. "Looks like a lady has more money in her account than you," he remarked, his words

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
Chapter 446: Cctv footage
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
Chapter 445: Missing Case
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
Chapter 443: Maverick Questioning II
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
Chapter 442: The Next Plan
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
Chapter 440: Tables Turned
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
Chapter 439: Abdelkarim Faces Bully
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
