Chapter 254: The Bad Boy Who Can't Change

Benjamin from Egerton University's art department had taken his own life due to struggles with work and life.

Ella tried hard to recall the details. Benjamin had died in mid-October of this year.

"Lauren, try getting in touch with him," Ella said.

Lauren immediately dialed Benjamin's number, but the line had been disconnected.

Unable to reach Benjamin, Ella felt a deep sense of regret. Such a talented young man—it would be a tragedy if he were to take his own life. She asked Lauren for a photo of Benjamin, planning to have Eric look into finding him once he returned.

The three of them chatted for a while longer, grabbed some late-night snacks, and then finally left the drink shop.

Mia and Owen, ever-watchful, followed closely behind Ella. Nothing unusual had happened recently, but as Ella stepped onto the street, seven or eight men armed with knives suddenly burst out from the crowd.
