Benjamin Knox's Rise to Riches Chapter 109
The students became scared at Professor Blanca's declaration. It was safe to say that none of them expected the woman to suddenly increase the worth of this presentation to 40% of the semester's grade.A lot of them felt it was unfair to be hearing such an announcement at the last minute, but none of them dared to voice their discontent about this.They all knew just how scary Professor Blanca could get when she was trying to assert her dominance. She wasn't just cruel and domineering, she also had the backing to show these kinds of personalities.The main reason is due to her connection with the Tyrone family. With backing from such a powerful family, Professor Blanca has been able to entrench her claws toward the heart of this university. A lot of lecturers from the faculty and outside of it are unwillingly under her control. Even Principal Dice had to be careful when reprimanding the professor.Professor clapped her hands loudly as her gaze shifted to the faces of these students.

Professor Blanca noticed that the class was too silent and her warm gaze turned cold as she glanced at the sullen faces of these students.“I expect you guys to properly welcome your fellow students as they walk up to present their assignments. Do I still need to teach you brats proper manners at your age?!”The students involuntarily helped upright in their seats as they sharply clapped their hands in fear of possibly facing the professor's wrath.As the claps filled the room, Andrew adjusted his outfit with an arrogant expression on his face as he got up with Alexa. He smiled as he held out his hand firmly to Alexa, portraying the act of a gentleman.Alexa flipped her hair proudly, looking like a true beauty before holding Andrew's hand. The laptop they would use was in her other hand as they walked to the front of the class.The students began whispering among each other once again.“It turns out these had chosen each other for this assignment presentation.”“Did you see the way Pr

“What did you just say to me?” Professor Blanca was definitely not expecting the reply she got from Benjamin.Benjamin could see that the professor was more shocked by his reply than she was angry about it.Benjamin decided to just give the woman her reply. “I'm sorry but my partner, Max, won't be able to make it today. He got into a very serious accident during the weekend and had to be rushed to the hospital.”The students began whispering among each other, wondering what kind of accident Max could have gotten into.Andrew and Alexa exchanged a glance with one another. Just a while ago, they were wondering why Benjamin's best friend was nowhere to be found. So it turns out to be like this.Professor Blanca seemed to be thinking about it before she sneered at Benjamin.“You really want me to believe that common lie? Then you'll have to accompany those words with some hard-to-disprove evidence right now.”Benjamin glanced at the professor. “I had a feeling you'd ask for that.” He ret

It was like Benjamin had heard those last words. He quickly connected his phone to the huge screen behind him, and he selected those pictures of Max in the hospital bed, allowing the whole class to see them on screen.The students felt elated that they could see the pictures with their own eyes, and they thanked Benjamin in their hearts.A couple of seconds later, the students began giving their verdict as well.“Hey, those pictures don't look fake at all.”“Yeah! If they were AI-generated, I would have definitely known by now.”“Yeah, look at him and the surroundings. I have been inside the Health-Bind Hospital buildings before. Those walls…..their private rooms are really designed like that.”Just like that, Andrew, Alexa, and Professor Blanca found themselves on the minority side. Their accusation had become void as so many voices were confirming that Benjamin wasn't being deceitful with his claims.“Fuck! He came prepared.” There was a thick wave of resentment in Andrew's words as

Benjamin smiled calmly at the professor before shifting his attention to his laptop. He connected the device to the huge screen as the students in the class whispered about him.“Hey, I think we should try becoming friends with Benjamin from now on.”“Hey, I was thinking the exact same thing. He's no longer the poor miserable loser who we saw get humiliated by Andrew last week.”“That is an understatement right there. He's now far from being poor. For goodness sake, the guy paid $70 million in Health-Bind Hospital just this morning. He's definitely loaded.”“Plus, he doesn't have a family member other than his old grandmother. He must not know how to spend such a huge amount of money, so let's help him spend it “Even though Elites Domain University is attended mostly by the wealthy class, most of the students here are simply children of millionaires. Therefore, they gave no more than a few hundreds of thousands of dollars in their bank accounts.These students wouldn't mind manipulat

Benjamin wasn't done as he spoke with confidence. “Of all the other students who presented before me, you waited until they were done before you corrected them. I expect the same level of respect from you, Professor.”He then glanced down at the necklace he had on. “As for my accessories, it doesn't make any sense that you'd suddenly have a problem with it. Every other student here has something in both their wrists and around their necks. Why do you only seem to have a problem with it when it comes to me?”“You……Benjamin, watch your tongue!” Professor Blanca had turned into a blabbering mess, as she hadn't been spoken to like this in years.Benjamin raised an eyebrow. “Why should I watch my tongue? I don't believe I've said anything out of reason. As a student, whose grandmother struggled through hell to pay his academic fees, I'm allowed to exercise my rights to the fullest if I see fit.”Professor Blanca felt utterly humiliated on the spot. She was so shocked that she could barely

The class became a bit noisy as students began whispering to each other, wondering if it was a coincidence that Principal Dice showed up here, and at a time that Professor Blanca was proudly claiming that no one could challenge her authority.As for Professor Blanca, she was frozen on the spot. She would have never guessed that this kind of awkward situation would occur at a time like this.Principal Dice’s gaze was calm but broody as he stepped into the lecture venue. “What's wrong, Mrs. Gorge? Why did you stop talking? You were telling your students how you're practically above every chain of authority on this campus, including mine, right?”“What?! No, no! Of course, not!” Professor Blanca Gorge was quick to shake her head with wide eyes before she smiled awkwardly. “Principal Dice, please, come in! I really wasn't expecting you'd show up here during my class. You should have given me a heads up.”Principal Dice raised an eyebrow and a cold smirk spread across his face. “But if I

Benjamin began walking towards Andrew. “Sometimes, you really don't think before you start yapping.”Andrew felt his heart racing as he saw Benjamin getting closer to him, but he put on a facade of bravery. “What?! What will you do if I don't shut my mouth?!” He scoffed. “Benjamin, you suddenly think you're untouchable just because you won that bet against me last week?! Don't forget that no matter what, you'll forever be an abandoned orphan who grew up in the slums. The ugly mud of your origin will never be washed no matter where you go!”Andrew was loudly saying these words and the whole class couldn't help but watch the drama unfolding.Andrew sneered as he wasn't done. “As for that money you got from winning a lottery, it's only a matter of time before it runs out. By then, I'll be there to remind you that you're not but a speck of dust to be trampled on and ignored.”Benjamin suddenly rushed the rest of the way, his face conveying what could be interpreted as fury.Seeing this,

The super chaotic scene was witnessed by the students from the upper floors, and some of these students began cheering on the chasers and the chased ones.Seeing the opportunity to get away was here, the secretary held Benjamin by his arm, immediately blushing as she found that Benjamin’s arms were quite too big for her fingers to wrap around. Even more so, she felt the sturdy muscles that rippled beneath every movement of that body part, despite the thick layer of clothes Benjamin had on.This young man wasn't really incredibly handsome, he was incredibly fit as well.She accepted this considering the fact that Benjamin had held that muscular culprit by the neck with such incredible strength just a moment ago.Benjamin was oblivious to the secretary's state of mind, agreeing with her words for him to take this chance and leave.Benjamin turned to Olivia. “I think you should go stay with April. Keep me updated on how she's doing.”Olivia saw the silent plea in Benjamin's gaze, finding

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

For the first time in forever, Benjamin felt his heart grow cold with intense fear as he watched April lie motionless in his arms. His right hand, placed right behind her head, had gone wet with her blood.“I'm glad you're safe.”Those whispered words from April's lips right before she lost consciousness went a shockwave down his body. He couldn't move, just kneeling on the ground as he stared at his fake girlfriend with shocked eyes.It was safe to say that the world had faded out of his awareness as he focused solely on the unconscious lady. Even though he didn't witness every single moment that led up to this point, he could easily deduce it.These people. These greedy-ass old neighbors of his…..They had intended to hurt him physically, and April took the hit for him, probably out of impulse.Benjamin felt really complicated in his heart, struggling to process his emotions, a truly rare occurrence.At that moment, he felt a firm hand on his shoulders.“Young man! Young man, please
Chapter 248
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'

Max placed a hand over Benjamin's shoulder. “Ben, what do you mean by that?”Benjamin turned to his best friend with a gentle smile.“It's exactly as you've heard. I don't want any of you guys near me once I start walking out of this building.”He turned a calm glare at Anthony.“Especially you guys.” He nudged his head at Lieutenant Jason while still speaking to his driver. “Hold him back, will you?”Anthony could only nod his head as he fought his reluctance.Olivia squinted her eyes. “There's something you're not telling us. This decision came to abrupt. What exactly are you thinking?”April watched as Benjamin kept quiet, refusing to reply to Olivia, so she did that instead.“It's because Benjamin knows that his old neighbors would definitely attack him. They'll run after him to physically assault him just to show some grievances of what they've lost.”Max nodded his head as he stared outside the faculty building main entrance with a frown.“Yeah. Those people will definitely ass

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

“Hey, are those reporters?! Woah! There's a lot of them!”True to these words, everyone found up to ten reporters' vehicles driving toward the faculty building. As soon as they reached their destination, these reporters and their camera people flooded out of their vans to speak to these protesters.“Sir, may I have a moment of your time?” A female reporter had quickly targeted a nearby man, hoping to gather scoops first. “What exactly is this protest about?”Of course, the other reporters were not slacking either. They rushed over to other protesters as well.Meanwhile, the older man being interviewed by the first reporter spewed out everything.“Look at the banners!” He directed the reporter's gaze to Benjamin’s face on the banner. The cameraman with this female reporter also captured the banner in the older man's grasp.The older man continued. “This boy is the devil's incarnate. On the night he and his grandmother decided to never return, they burned down a significant portion of

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,

At a hidden base,Boss Jude sat on a comfortable couch, ignoring the two naked women kissing his neck and sliding their slender fingers over his torso as he stared at the tablet screen in his right hand.On the screen of this tablet phone was the information of a certain profile being displayed on it. This person was one other than Benjamin.“Yeah, it's definitely the strong kid from that night. Benjamin Knox, huh?”Going through the details, Boss Jude could see that Benjamin attended Elites Domain University, along with his background as a poor orphan with little to no money in his bank account.“Then where did such a kid get armed men with incredible stealth?” Boss Jude murmured to himself before groaning in frustration.“Call me my leftie, now!”One of the lower subordinates outside this private room immediately answered. “Yes, Sir!”A few minutes later, Brody now stood before his boss.Boss Jude kept his gaze on the screen of the tablet phone as he questioned his newly assigned le
