There was a brief pause as the voice on the phone contemplated the question. The man in the mask glanced nervously at the photograph he had taken clandestinely of Benjamin driving away from the secretive base the previous night. His mission was clear, but the stakes were high.

"We cannot afford loose ends," the master's voice finally responded, cold and calculated. "Eliminate him. Swiftly and discreetly."

The masked man nodded, a grim determination settling over him. "Consider it done," he affirmed before ending the call abruptly.

The day passed by with still no information from Cipherella concerning their search for Darnell Peterson.

“Still no information? It's been two days now," Benjamin said, looking at Cipherella and Inspector Helen.

Cipherella shook her head and replied, "Nothing yet, master."

“Damn!” Benjamin sat down, frustrated. "Maybe we'll have to stop relying on this and deploy men to search for Darnell in the whole country." He looked at Rakshasha and said, "I want you—”

    "Good," Benjamin replied. "Make sure the jet is ready to depart as soon as I'm equipped." He turned to leave, then paused. "And thank you, Rakshasha. I know you'd come with me if I asked. Your loyalty means a lot." Rakshasha bowed slightly. "It's my duty, sir. I'll ensure everything is in place.” Benjamin looked at Cipherella and sighed. "You'll have to come with me." Cipherella's eyes lit up with happiness. "Sure, master! I've always wanted to accompany you." He nodded. "You'll have to handle some hacking tasks while we're there." Turning to Helen, he added, "Inspector Helen, I hope you get some rest while I deal with things. Take care of everything here." Helen nodded. "As you wish, Master." With a final nod, Benjamin left the main hall and headed to his room. Meanwhile, back at the Winslow mansion, Cordelia had finished taking her bath and was wrapped in a towel. She picked up her panties and bra, putting them on before reaching for her cream and applying it as she admired h

    Just as Marshall's hand was close, a knock was heard on Cordelia's door, making his movement cease. He retracted his hand quickly and got up from the bed."Madam Cordelia, are you there?" a voice came. It was the voice of Cordelia's maid, Linda."Madam." Linda knocked again. "I'm here to clean, Madam Cordelia," she said, trying to open the door, but since it was locked, she couldn't."Could it be that she has gone out?" Linda asked herself. "Alright, I'll come back later," she then walked away.After a moment, confirming that Linda had walked away, Marshall breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at Cordelia on the bed and said, "The medicine will keep working for long and you'll sleep for long. Don't worry, I'll come back to you later and do what I want."Saying this, he took Cordelia's door key and walked out quietly, locking the door behind him.It was around 8 p.m. at Benjamin's base, and a quiet stillness settled over the area. Benjamin was in his room, asleep. In the hall, Cipherel

    Meanwhile, the other men saw their fallen comrades. The boss grew furious. "They've killed three of us! Kill every single one of them. Don't spare anyone." Rakshasha, recognizing the escalating danger, turned to one of his men. "Quick, go on. Tell Master Benjamin we're under attack. No one should come out." The man nodded and sprinted to the door, bursting it open. The noise jolted Inspector Helen awake. She looked at him, confused and groggy. "What's wrong?" "We're under attack! We're under attack!" the man shouted, gripping his gun. Helen sat up straight, alarmed. The man quickly roused the others, then rushed to Benjamin's door to inform him. Inside, Benjamin was fast asleep until the persistent knocking finally woke him. He groggily called out, "Who's there?" "Master, we're under attack," came the urgent reply. "Attack?" Benjamin shot upright, now fully awake. "Yes. Some people have invaded and started shooting.” Benjamin jumped up, quickly throwing on his shirt and openin

    As they continued their approach, they could hear sporadic screams from Rakshasha's men, followed by brief silences. The leader's confusion deepened. "They're falling back," he noted. "Keep pressing. They're weakening."Encouraged by the apparent retreat of Rakshasha's men, the attackers advanced with growing confidence. The leader believed they were close to victory, but his confidence was soon shattered.Just as the attackers moved into the open, Benjamin shouted, "Now!”Rakshasha and his men sprang from their hiding spots, unleashing a relentless barrage of bullets on the unsuspecting attackers. The sudden onslaught caught them completely off guard, and they fell one by one under the fierce attack.The leader's eyes widened in shock as he saw his men dropping around him. "It's an ambush!" he screamed, trying to rally his men, but it was too late. The attackers, overwhelmed and outmaneuvered, were quickly decimated by Rakshasha and his men.All the enemy attackers had fallen, their

    Rakshasha nodded, a mixture of respect and concern on his face. "Yes, Master," he said, signaling his men to deal with the body.Benjamin looked around, assessing the aftermath of the skirmish. "How many men did we lose?" he askedRakshasha stepped forward, his expression solemn. "Three, Master. The rest have injuries—some were shot in the thighs and others in the arms.”Benjamin nodded, his jaw clenched in anger. "Treat those with wounds immediately. Bury our fallen brothers with honor. May their souls rest in peace." His face hardened, his eyes reflecting a simmering fury. "This isn't over. We will find out who is behind this and make them pay.”Rakshasha nodded, understanding the determination in Benjamin's voice. "Yes, Master. We'll make sure everything is taken care of."Benjamin took a deep breath, trying to steady his thoughts. "Good. And tighten security. We can't afford another surprise like this."Rakshasha nodded again, already signaling his men to begin the necessary tasks

    As Rakshasha turned around to walk away, Benjamin asked him to stop.He turned back, concern etched on his face. "Master, is there any problem?"Benjamin nodded. "Don't tell my mom to arrange anything. Don't talk to her about it anymore."Rakshasha frowned slightly, puzzled. "Any problem, Master?""I don't want her to know about this," Benjamin explained. "She might get worried and try to involve herself, making it a bigger case. Just leave it."Rakshasha nodded in understanding. "What do I do then, Master?”Benjamin continued, "I'll transfer money to you. Get more men, a lot of them. Get more weapons, too. Even if you have to use your own ability to find military-trained people, that's fine."Rakshasha nodded again. "Alright, Master. I'll handle everything perfectly as you want." With that, he walked out of the room, determined to carry out Benjamin's orders.Marshall walked slowly across the room, his footsteps barely making a sound. Suddenly, he heard a yawn behind him, followed by

    Seeing her dad walk inside, Rose turned around and walked towards Cordelia's door. "Is she even asleep?" she muttered. She was about to knock when she stopped."No, if she's asleep I might unnecessarily disturb her," she said, discarding the idea of knocking. She turned around and walked away.Cordelia started breathing harshly, confusion clouding her mind. She looked down at herself, realizing she was draped in a towel. "Huh?" she muttered, shocked. Forcing herself to sit up, she clutched the towel tightly around her. "A towel?"She tried hard to remember what had happened. She recalled going to take a bath and then walking towards the door, but beyond that, her memory was blank. "What happened?" she whispered to herself, panic starting to rise. "Why can't I remember anything else?”Cordelia rubbed her temples, feeling a sharp, persistent ache in her head. "Why does my head hurt so much?" she whispered, wincing at the pain. She glanced around her room, trying to piece together the fr

    Cordelia forced a smile. "No, everything's fine. I just couldn't remember if I locked my door or not, and I thought maybe someone might have come in to check."Rose looked relieved. "Oh, okay. I was worried for a second. If you need anything else, just let me know."Cordelia nodded. "Thanks, Rose. I'm fine now. I'll just take this and try to get some rest.""Alright. I'm here if you need me," Rose said reassuringly.Cordelia looked thoughtful for a moment. "I remember, I can't find my access card. Can anything be done about it?"Rose frowned with concern. "Oh, sorry about that. A new card can be issued. Have you locked your door?"Cordelia shook her head. "No, I didn't, so that I can go back inside."Rose nodded understandingly. "Alright, I'll make a call to the card provider early in the morning to get a new card for you. But you can come stay in my room if you want.”Cordelia shook her head with a smile. "No, thank you. I'll just stay in my room. I can open it from the inside."Rose

    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

    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

    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
