Chapter 523: Mixtic Hears of Benjamin's Return
Cordelia climbed back onto him, sitting comfortably as before. “It’s between my mother-in-law and I,” she whispered, teasingly brushing a kiss along his neck. “Don't gossip, sir.”Benjamin let out a soft chuckle. “Oh wow… women, fear them,” he said lightly.He looked at her again. “Now that we’re back, what’s your plan? What are you going to do?”Cordelia grew quiet for a moment, her expression turning thoughtful. “My friend Hannah… before we left for Denmark, I told her I’d be back in a week and asked her to look after my restaurant, but we’ve been gone almost a year now… I don’t even know what she must be thinking. She might think I’m dead or something,” she said softly. “And my mart too… I wonder how everything has been managed. The rent and all.”Benjamin nodded slowly. He wasn’t worried about the mart at all, since he secretly owned the stores and was confident Ezra had ensured everything was handled properly without her knowing.“By the way,” Cordelia added, looking at him, “y
Chapter 522: Back To Elysian II
The convoy moved smoothly through the quiet evening streets of Elysian as they drove deeper into the private district where Benjamin’s residence was located.Soon, the tall gates of the estate opened automatically as the vehicles approached and the cars drove inside the large compound and slowed to a stop in front of the mansion. The engines went quiet one after the other.A guard stepped forward and opened the car door.Benjamin stepped out first, the cool evening air brushed his face, and he paused for a moment, looking around the familiar compound. The wide driveway, the neatly trimmed gardens, the calm glow of lights around the house—it all felt the same.He took a slow breath, it felt good to be back. Benjamin then turned and reached his hand inside the car. Cordelia placed her hand in his, and he gently helped her step out, she looked around as well, taking in the large estate that now felt like home again.Benjamin slipped his arm lightly around her waist.Without saying much,
Chapter 521: Back To Elysian
As Elijah walked away, Sierra stood there for a moment, tears slipping down her cheeks. She quickly wiped them with the back of her hand and lowered her head. “Sorry…” she muttered softly to herself, knowing he was already gone upstairs.Inside the bedroom, Elijah shut the door firmly behind him. He didn’t sit. He didn’t pace. He simply pulled out his phone and dialed Felix.Felix picked up almost immediately. “Yeah?”“Do we have the footage?” Elijah asked straight to the point.“Yes,” Felix replied. “We’ve accessed them. Still reviewing everything carefully.”Elijah nodded slightly even though Felix couldn’t see him. “The police were here.”There was a brief pause on the line. “What?”“She reported it,” Elijah said coldly. “They’ve already collected the location.”Felix exhaled. “That complicates things.”“It does,” Elijah replied. “Listen carefully.

Recap
Everything was neatly arranged—two packed suitcases stood by the wall, shoes aligned, documents placed carefully on the table. Their clothes were folded and set aside with intention, every detail handled. Benjamin stretched and sat up, glancing at the clock. 7:30 a.m. Their flight was at 10. “Good morning,” he said calmly. Cordelia turned to him with a soft smile. “Good morning, baby. Hope you had a nice night.” He nodded slightly, then looked around the room. “You woke up early,” he said. “Why? Our flight is 10 a.m.” Cordelia nodded. “Time runs faster than we expect,” she replied. “So I wanted to be up early and get most things done. I’ve packed everything, and I’ve already laid out what you’ll wear.” Benjamin stood up, walked over, and took her hand, gently pulling her toward him. He tapped her lightly and smiled. “Thank you,” he said. “I’ll make it up to you when we get back there—trust me.” Cordelia wrapped her arms around him and kissed him deeply, holding him for near

Laughter filled the space as they talked over the characters on the screen and teased each other about small things.“Hubby,” Cordelia smiled the moment she saw him. She stood up immediately, walked over, and hugged him, resting her head against his chest. “How are you?” she asked softly.“I’m fine,” Benjamin replied calmly, his hand settling lightly on her back. “How about you?”“I’m good,” Cordelia said, pulling back slightly with a smile.Benjamin nodded and took a seat.
