Max was temporarily silenced by this, staring at the cold expression on his best friend's face.“Huh?”“You heard me.” Benjamin's tone was deep yet gentle as he kept his gaze in the distance of nothingness.“Do you have any idea how guilty I felt when I got to that house and found you and your family in the quest conditions ever? You had a couple of ribs broken and your face had been beaten to the point that I could barely recognize you as you pay on the ground.”Max's face softened as the pain of that horrible day came flooding back into his mind. No one understood the pain he went through at the hands of Jude and his gang members more than him.“Buddy……” He didn't get past this word as he was cut off.Benjamin spoke. “I saw your sister in a heart-shattering position. Looking into her eyes, I saw it. I saw how lost she was in her mind. The trauma of everything she experienced that day was evident. And your mother?”“Stop!” Max covered his eyes as he hunched his head over his lap whil

With Andrew not around on campus for a month now, the surroundings became easily peaceful for Benjamin and his crew. With no Andrew around, there was naturally no Alexa around. It wasn't too hard to deduce that the $1 billion that Benjamin had taken away from Andrew had caused a temporary crippling of his financial status.In addition, his father - Simon Tyrone - had publicly poured all the blame on his son. It was fair to say that Andrew was under house arrest as a form of discipline from his father.Either way, this ensured that Benjamin, Max, April, and Olivia were able to focus on their studies without being worried that there was a scheme underway.In fact, neither the sorority girls nor Andrew's goonish crew came looking for trouble. These people didn't have the powerful backing they usually did to escape any punishment for bullying people.With Benjamin's superior display of wealth, these people felt like they had to get even more careful when it comes to looking for trouble,

Professor Blanca's expression conveyed her dissatisfaction as she watched April Scott lead the other two into the classroom.“What are you three doing here? Do you realize that I can have you all punished severely for interrupting my class with a sensible reason?!”Olivia discretely glanced at the middle-aged teacher with disdain, mumbling to herself.“What lecture? None of your students are even in their seats at the moment.”Max doesn't reiterate this though. Instead, he spoke with a slightly gentler tone.“We're sorry, Professor, but we saw the commotion outside the faculty building and we had to check on our friend.”Professor Blanca rolled her eyes with a show of annoyance.“You came from your classes to check on your friend because you're worried about him? What about the victims he killed and the victims he stripped of their properties? Who would come to their aid, huh?”Professor Blanca pointed at Benjamin, making sure she had the attention of not just Benjamin’s friends, but

Hearing this, Max smiled proudly with a head nod to convey his understanding. As for the two ladies, they were tearing up at varying degrees, having never met such a handsome man with such an overbearing aura but acting with such meticulous protectiveness when it came to the people he cared about.“Haba haba!” Olivia fanned herself while batting her eyes at Benjamin, conveying how flustered she was. “Just when I think you couldn't get more attractive with your show of masculinity, you prove me wrong.”Benjamin didn't reply to Olivia, turning to face Lieutenant Jason and his team of soldiers.“As for you guys, I know you'll resort to fircecwadikt if that means that I'm kept out of harm's way. And in that kind of situation, the chances of you hurting the protesters are high. This would only make the public view me truly as a bully, and they'll become more susceptible to believing those people outside. Don't forget, my old neighbors have made it clear of their intention to sue me. I don'

The short and muscular culprit was scared. Though his neck was thick, Benjamin's fingers wrapped around a good portion of it, enough to strangle him in the first place. With his terrifyingly brutal strength, he could feel the breath of life being stolen away from him.Meanwhile, Olivia felt her heart shaking by the feeling Be Jasmin gave off from the start and everything that played out before her eyes.From this, she deduced that Benjamin wasn't…your typical intellectually gifted young man. She had always known this but this physical display of intimidation made her realize that Benjamin was on a whole different level. It was simultaneously incredible and scary.She turned to Max to find that the guy was not as dumbfounded or taken aback as she was. In fact, Max was the most calm about the scenario that was playing before everyone here.Turning to the secretary, Olivia round her just as awed by Benjamin’s display as everyone else.With her observant eyes and sharp mind, Olivia deduce
