Cordelia looked at the leader and said, "Have you seen how strong the accounting department team is? You guys should match it well, or else you might lose, understood?"

They all nodded in acknowledgment and moved into position. Cordelia then turned to Benjamin and wished him, "All the best."

Benjamin remained silent, acknowledging her words, and walked away towards the field.

As Benjamin approached the field, the sports teacher gave him a cold look. The teacher had already developed a sense of dislike towards Benjamin, influenced by what he perceived during the incident in the class.

Picking up the microphone, the sports teacher declared, "Now, it's going to be a tug of war challenge between the accounting department and the business department. The accounting department has already won a lot; will they win this one too, or will they be defeated? We'll watch." He added,

"Please, all the leaders, when you're pulling and feel tired, you can quickly hand over to those at your back givin

    "Are you asking why?" the manager frowned."Of course, sir. I'm eager to know why because I don't understand why all of a sudden prices would be increased by 30 percent," Cordelia repliedThe manager leaned back in his chair and explained, "Cordelia, the Market Square attracts a significant number of visitors, contributing to the consistent flow of customers to your supermarket. It's our collective effort to maintain high standards here, which, in turn, reflects positively on your business, enabling you to thrive and make good profits.”Cordelia’s brows furrowed as she attempted to reason with the manager. "I understand the need for adjustments, but the current prices are already higher than the standard. Adding another 30 percent makes it more than just an increase; it's becoming exorbitant.”The manager, visibly angered, slapped his hand on the table. "How dare you? You question something I've taken time to calculate as abnormal? Are you insinuating that the prices are too high? Do

    After leaving the manager's office, Cordelia with an angry expression walked to her supermarket. Cordelia's supermarket was a well-lit and organized space with neatly arranged shelves stocked with a variety of products. The camera surveillance system was discreetly placed to ensure security. The supermarket offered a diverse range of goods, including groceries, fresh produce, household items, and more. Staff members were efficiently attending to their tasks, ensuring the smooth operation of the store. Customers moved about, filling their baskets with various items. As Cordelia entered her supermarket, a wave of respect emanated from the staff. They paused in their tasks and greeted her with a collective warmth.

    Cordelia returned to the dining area with a tray of steaming food. On the plate was a succulent piece of roasted meat, surrounded by a generous portion of fluffy rice. The plate also held a colorful mix of well-seasoned vegetables, enhancing the visual appeal and flavors of the meal. She placed it in front of Benjamin, the rich aroma filling the room."Here you go, Benjamin," she said, setting the fork and knife beside the plate. The combination of meat, rice, and veggies promised a delightful and well-balanced dinner. "Enjoy your meal. It's a little bit of everything to make it special.”Benjamin nodded and said thank you. Cordelia then said, “Let me get you wine too.” She then opened the fridge at the side and pulled out a bottle and started pouring. Benjamin nodded appreciatively as Cordelia mentioned getting some wine. As she poured, his eyes caught a glimpse of the small scratch on her hand. Concern immediately flashed across his face, and without hesitation, he got up and gently

    Soon, Benjamin arrived at the market square, where he parked his car and got down. Although it was late, the market was still bustling with activities. People were still in their stores, selling. The market square, under the glow of dimmed lights, exuded a lively atmosphere. Vendors hurriedly attended to the remaining customers, and the night air carried the fragrance of various goods. Benjamin, unsure of the exact location of the manager's office, decided to seek guidance from someone familiar with the market square. He approached a vendor who seemed to be organizing his goods."Excuse me, sir," Benjamin politely began, "could you please direct me to the manager's office?”The vendor, taking a moment to pause his work, looked up at Benjamin. "Ah, you're looking for the manager, eh? Climb the stairs and go straight down this aisle, take a left, and it's the third door on your right.”"Thank you very much," Benjamin expressed his gratitude with a nod before following the directions gi

I'll do anything!" the manager pleaded, bloodied and broken, as Benjamin continued to mete out a punishment that seemed to have no end. The office echoed with the manager's anguished cries and Benjamin's relentless determination to extract justice for Cordelia."I'm teaching you just a light lesson," Benjamin declared. Saying this, he removed the manager's clothes, leaving him in a vulnerable state. "Not just to Cordelia, but this shouldn't be done to any lady," Benjamin stated firmly. With a stern expression, he delivered a single firm blow to the manager's pot belly.The manager, feeling the impact, fell to his knees, realizing the error of his ways.

    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.

    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
