Rise Of The Student Billionaire Chapter 383: Lars Johansen Kidnapped
Soon after the day was over, Benjamin and Cordelia returned to their hotel room."Whoo, that was a very long stressful day. Thank you for all the activities today. I really enjoyed it," Cordelia said to Benjamin with a smile.Benjamin smiled back at her. "You're welcome. It's late already, and I'm pretty tired. I'll go wash up and then come sleep."Cordelia nodded. "I'll also take my bath too when you're done.”"No problem, go first before I come then. I'll wait for you," Benjamin said."Alright, thanks." Cordelia nodded and walked into the shower.Immediately after she walked away, Benjamin's phone started ringing. He pulled it out and answered instantly."Rakshasha, is there any problem?" he asked."Yes, master. We have Lars Johansen now. We've caught and brought him to the base," Rakshasha reported."Good, good. That was fast," Benjamin responded. "I'll come there tonight. My woman is here, so when she's actually asleep, I'll be there," Benjamin said in a low voice."Alright then,

Benjamin looked up from his phone and smiled back at her. "Great. I’ll be quick."Cordelia nodded and walked over to the bed, sitting down and beginning to dry her hair with another towel. Benjamin got up, grabbed his nightwear, and headed towards the bathroom.As he passed her, he leaned down and gave her a quick kiss on the forehead. "I'll be out in a bit," he said softly before disappearing into the bathroom.Soon, Benjamin emerged from the bathroom, freshly showered and dressed in comfortable nightwear. He smiled at Cordelia as he walked over to the bed, where she was already lying down, looking relaxed and content."All set?" Cordelia asked with a sleepy smile."All set," Benjamin replied, sliding into bed beside her. He pulled the covers up and turned off the bedside lamp, plunging the room into a soft, soothing darkness.Cordelia snuggled close to him, resting her head on his chest. "Thank you for today," she murmured, her voice heavy with sleep. "It was wonderful.""You're wel

Benjamin looked at Lars and sat down on the sofa. "Push him forward closer to me so I can speak to him well," he said to Rakshasha.Rakshasha nodded and did as Benjamin ordered. Lars was now directly in front of Benjamin, still tied."Untie him," Benjamin commanded.Rakshasha nodded and untied Lars.Lars glared at Benjamin, rubbing his now free hands. "I've released you. You said we should untie you so we see what you'll do to us. Now, Mr. Johansen, show me what you can do.”Lars remained seated, momentarily stunned and uncertain."Why did you people kid—"Slap! Benjamin raised his hand and delivered a hard slap to Lars' cheek, stunning everyone present."I said show me what you'll do. I didn't ask you to question me."Lars, shocked and in pain, touched his stinging cheek. "Do you know who I am? How dare you slap me?"Benjamin chuckled and looked at Cipherella. "Tell him about himself.”Cipherella nodded. "You’re Lars Johansen. You own a showroom. You're 42 years old. You attended Ny
Rise Of The Student Billionaire Chapter 386: Benjamin Questions Lars
The animators quickly set to work, their fingers flying over keyboards and graphic tablets. The room buzzed with a quiet intensity as they skillfully manipulated the digital tools to bring the image to life. Lars watched with a mixture of confusion and anxiety, his eyes darting between the animators and Benjamin.Within 10 minutes, the screen lit up with the projection. The truck image, now larger and clearer, loomed before them. Every detail, from the licence plate to the distinct scratches on the side, matched perfectly with the photograph.Lars' eyes widened in shock and recognition. The image on the screen was unmistakably the truck from his showroom years ago. He swallowed hard, the realization hitting him like a punch to the gut. He was clearly frightened, understanding that this was no ordinary confrontation.Benjamin leaned back in his chair, a small smile playing on his lips. "Do you recognize it now, Mr. Johansen?" he askedLars nodded, his face pale. "Yes, I recognize it. I

After ending the call, Lars looked at Benjamin and said, "We can go for it now if you want. The hard drives will be ready."Benjamin considered the suggestion for a moment, then turned to Rakshasha. "Take care of it. Make sure everything is collected and brought back safely."Rakshasha nodded firmly. "Understood, Master." He swiftly gathered a few of his men and prepared to head out, ensuring that the retrieval would be handled efficiently and without any issues.After an hour, Rakshasha returned with two of his men, who walked in carrying a box full of hard drives. "Here it is, master," Rakshasha announced.Benjamin opened the box and observed the mix of old and new hard drives. "This is really going to take time. It's already late."Cipherella quickly stepped forward. "Master, I'll help. I'll connect the drives and check them throughout the night. Lars will be here to assist me."Lars protested, "Hey, I've given you people what you want. At least allow me to go. I need to return to

Cordelia's smile faded completely, replaced by confusion and sadness. "What do you mean? You're leaving me? To go where exactly?""It's something I have to take care of," Benjamin said gently. "You need to return to the mansion, and I'll be away for a few days. When I'm done, I'll come back."Cordelia's eyes filled with tears. "Why can't I come with you? Why do you have to do this alone? Is it dangerous? What if something happens to you? I don't want to be apart from you, Benjamin. How can you ask me to just go back to the mansion and wait?”Benjamin sighed, feeling the weight of her emotions. "I promise I'll be safe. This is something I need to handle on my own. I need you to trust me and stay safe at the mansion. I love you too much to put you in any danger."Cordelia shook her head, tears streaming down her face. "I don't want to be away from you. Please, let me stay with you."Benjamin held her tightly, trying to comfort her. "I know it's hard, but I need you to trust me on this.
Rise Of The Student Billionaire Chapter 389: Footage Found
Inside, Marshall stood in his suit with tie, his bag ready as he prepared to leave for work. Rose was in the hall, the TV on, though her focus was on her phone, while her mother Rhoda sat watching the TV.Screech! The door opened, revealing Cordelia’s face. Instantly, all gazes turned to her in shock."Cousin," Rose said with a smile, standing up and walking towards Cordelia. She gave her a hug and whispered, "I'm happy you're fine."Cordelia forced a nod. "Thank you," she said before looking at her uncle and his wife.Marshall, who had a frown seeing Cordelia, was visibly angry. "Where are you coming from, Cordelia? And where's that idiot named Benjamin?""Do I need to report my whereabouts to anyone?" Cordelia shot back."Bullshit, Cordelia." Marshall stomped his foot and yelled. "Do you know the problems you have caused me?""Problems?" Cordelia, still frowning, asked. "What problems could I possibly give you?" She was also annoyed."Still pretending not to know what I'm talking ab
Rise Of The Student Billionaire Chapter 390: Darnell Peterson
As Cipherella forwarded the video, they saw the usual hustle and bustle of the showroom. People came in to browse the cars, and workers moved about, attending to their tasks. The camera captured various angles, showing customers discussing with sales staff and mechanics working on vehicles.After a few minutes, a red car drove into the frame and parked in a spot. The driver’s side door opened, and Lars stepped out, wearing a red shirt and a cap matching the color of his car. He adjusted his cap and made his way into the showroom.“There he is,” Benjamin said, eyes fixed on the screen. “That’s Lars.”Lars nodded, “Yes, that’s me. This footage should have what you’re looking for. Keep forwarding, Cipherella.”Cipherella continued to forward the video, eager to see what the rest of the clip revealed.Cipherella continued forwarding the video, the minutes ticking by as they watched the scenes unfold in fast motion. The showroom buzzed with activity, then gradually quieted as the day progr

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
Chapter 444: Rose Stone
“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
Chapter 441: Kneel and call me Daddy
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
Chapter 438: Clean My Shoes
As they entered, Benjamin's gaze swept over the bustling interior of the establishment. The atmosphere was thick with chatter, clinking glasses, and faint music playing in the background. At one side of the room, a group of rugged-looking men occupied a long table. They were loud, drinking and eating heartily, with wisps of smoke curling from the cigarettes and cigars they casually puffed.Their appearances were striking—some had jagged scars running across their cheeks.Others had scarves tied around their heads, their expressions hard and uninviting, with sharp eyes that scanned the room like predators on the lookout. A few wore leather jackets with frayed edges, while others had rugged shirts and boots.Benjamin took note but didn’t linger on them. Instead, he calmly made his way to an unoccupied corner on the other side of the room. He settled into a chair with an air of quiet authority, his face betraying no hint of concern. Cipherella followed closely, her gaze flickering brief
Chapter 437: Abdelkarim Takes Benjamin To Restaurant
Benjamin settled back onto the couch, gesturing for Cipherella to sit. She listened intently as he recounted the night's events."Cipherella," he began, "I met Abdelkarim yesterday. His boss wasn’t exactly treating him right, and he seemed ready for a change."Abdelkarim shifted uneasily, but Benjamin continued. "We ended up being followed by three of Darnell's men. They tried to corner us, but I convinced them to switch sides and work for me. Abdelkarim here was part of that, and he’s proven he’s willing to take on something bigger.”Cipherella raised an eyebrow, intrigued but cautious. “And they just… agreed? Just like that?”Benjamin nodded, a faint smirk playing on his lips. "Sometimes all it takes is to show someone what they’re worth. They’d been risking their lives for scraps. Now, they have a reason to be loyal." He glanced at Abdelkarim, who looked both grateful and a little overwhelmed.Cipherella sighed, finally relaxing a bit. “If you trust him, Master, then that’s enough
