Chapter 508: Benjamin Offers To Buy Hotel
He leaned forward slightly, studying Benjamin’s face, trying to find the crack—the bluff.“You?” he asked. “You want to buy my hotel?”The lady laughed too, stepping closer to her fiancé, clearly enjoying the attention.“Did you hear him?” she said loudly, looking around the room. “He wants to buy this place.”She waved her hand around dramatically. “Do you even know what’s in here? The restaurant alone pulls insane revenue. There’s the private dining wing, the event halls, the suites upstairs, the brand value, everything.”She scoffed and crossed her arms. “This hotel is worth tens of millions. Even more, depending on valuation.”She looked Benjamin up and down with open contempt. “You couldn’t even buy the parking lot here, not to talk of the whole place.”A few people nearby nodded unconsciously, others whispered.“Yeah, that’s crazy…”“He’s just bluffing.”“No one says that so casually.”The lady leaned closer, lowering her voice mockingly. “So please,” she said, smiling cruelly,
Chapter 507: Clash At Restaurant
The woman turned dramatically and pointed. “Those two,” she said. “They bullied me and broke the wines I was bringing. They were rude to me.”The young man’s expression hardened slightly as he followed her gaze.The young man’s face darkened as he stepped closer, his voice rising.“Do you even know the prices of those wines?” he shouted. “Do you know what you just broke? That’s not something you casually replace.”Benjamin raised a hand slightly, calm. “Hey. It was an accident. They bumped into each other.”He glanced at the broken bottles, then back at the man. “You know what—forget the argument. I’ll pay for the wines. As a matter of fact, I’ll pay double for them. Are we good?”The man laughed sharply, full of contempt.“Fuck off,” he snapped. “Did I tell you I need money? You think you’re richer than me?”Before Benjamin could say another word, the man shoved him in the chest.Cordelia instinctively reached for Benjamin, eyes wide. Benjamin steadied himself easily, his expression
Chapter 506: Problem At The Restaurant
It was a woman.She was dressed expensively, hair perfectly styled, makeup flawless, the kind of person who carried herself like the room should part for her. She looked down at the broken bottles, then snapped her head up at Cordelia, eyes sharp with anger.“Are you blind?” the woman snapped loudly. “Do you know how expensive that wine was?”Cordelia steadied herself, still holding the water bottles. “Actually,” she said calmly, “you bumped into me. You were focused on your phone.”She glanced at the shattered glass, then back at the woman. “But I’m sorry. I’ll pay for it.”That only seemed to make it worse.The woman scoffed. “Pay for it?” she hissed. “Do you even know what you’re talking about?”Before Cordelia could react, the woman’s face twisted with rage. She stepped forward aggressively and shoved Cordelia hard.“Don’t talk back to me!” she shouted.Cordelia stumbled, nearly dropping the water bottles. Gasps rose from nearby tables as the woman lunged again, grabbing at Cordel
Chapter 505: At the Restaurant
Soon enough, Cordelia slowed the car and pulled into the parking lot of the place she had in mind.She parked, turned off the engine, and they both got down.Benjamin stretched his shoulders slightly as he stepped out, then waited for her, instinctively falling into step beside her. Cordelia locked the car and glanced up at him.“Here,” she said quietly. “This place.”Benjamin nodded. “Looks good.”The restaurant sat back from the road, broad and solid, the kind of place that didn’t need flashing signs to announce itself. Its frontage was wide, with a low overhang stretching across the entrance and soft yellow lights tucked beneath it. Cars moved in and out steadily. You could tell it was popular.As they walked in, the space opened up immediately.It wasn’t loud, but it wasn’t quiet either. Plates clinked, cutlery scraped lightly, and voices overlapped in relaxed conversation. The smell of food hit first—grilled meat, spices, something creamy simmering somewhere deeper inside.Inside
Chapter 504: Are U Behind Jacobs Death?
Marshall nodded slowly, frowning as the thought settled in.“That’s right,” he said aloud. “Wasn’t he with any security at all? No driver… nothing?”The unease in the compound deepened.Raymond turned to his sister, his voice strained. “Sis… you and Dad work in the same office. Why was he alone? Why would he do that?”Shulamite lifted her tear-streaked face and shook her head slowly. “I asked,” she said quietly. “I questioned them too.”She swallowed hard before continuing. “They told me Daddy said he wanted to drive alone. He said he needed to check something himself, that it wouldn’t take long.”Her voice broke. “So he went alone.”A hush fell over the group.“The body has already been taken for autopsy,” Shulamite added softly. “They said the results will be out soon.”Nearby, the old butler remained silent, his hands clasped behind his back. His eyes drifted briefly to Benjamin—sharp, searching—before lowering again.What kind of game is this young man playing? he wondered.Benjam
Chapter 503: Jacobs Death II
About half an hour later, Benjamin’s phone rang again. He answered calmly. “Master,” Cipherella’s voice came through, confident and satisfied. “It’s done.” Benjamin leaned back slightly. “Report.” “I’ve cut all relevant feeds,” she said smoothly. “Every branch the police might trace—traffic systems, private cameras, auxiliary backups—gone or rewritten.” She continued, precise and proud of her work. “If investigators try to reconstruct Jacob’s route, they won’t get anywhere. I duplicated the vehicle’s digital signature and rerouted it through a false path, a clean, believable drive that leads nowhere meaningful.” Benjamin’s eyes narrowed slightly in approval. “It looks like the car simply went off toward a normal district,” Cipherella added. “No dead ends. No suspicious gaps. No overlap with the real location. Time stamps are aligned, traffic density matches, and the route blends naturally with routine night movement.” She paused briefly. “Even if they suspect manipu
