Benjamin Knox's Rise to Riches Chapter 136
Lieutenant Jason glanced at the other four soldiers before replying. “Roger that, Young Master.”As soon as the call came to an end, the only female soldier in this security unit clicked her tongue.“Am I the only one feeling that the young master seems smart beyond his years?”A male soldier nodded his head sharply. “I thought I was the only one who felt it. His way of dissolving issues would make you believe he's an old soul in a young man's body.”“Right?” The female soldier agreed. “Even if he spent his life up to this point in the lower districts of the city, he should be street smart, at least, and yet, he has such a calm tactical approach to things.”Lieutenant Jason nodded as well. “Like the way he gave a certain of power to that driver of his. Years at the prime estate, and not even Master Hunter had interfered with how that guy from the Wood family was treated by everyone. But the young master changed all that.”The silence that followed in the black jeep was filled with de

Gina teared up slightly but she smiled at Theresa. “Uncle Jerry, he…..”“I know.” Theresa nodded her head with a sad expression. “I'm sorry you lost your uncle to those bad guys.”“I'm not. Uncle Jerry deserved everything he got.”Theresa would be lying if she claimed that she didn't expect this kind of reply from the young teenage girl. Jeremiah Detroit was a useless drunk during his lifetime, and he had only ever brought nothing but trouble to the already hard lives of the Detroit family members. Also, Theresa was informed by Benjamin of the signs of physical assault he had found in Gina the night he rescued them. Theresa cursed at the terrible excuse for an Uncle. That drunk was also known for beating up Max and Gina ever since they were little. It was their father who would always help them out and occasionally prevent Jeremiah from going too far with his beatings.While Gina talked with Theresa, Benjamin walked over to the therapist handling Gina, and Dr. Felicia introduced th

“Where else would you go? You're coming home with me, of course.” Benjamin spoke with a matter-of-fact tone.Max tilted his head before chuckling. “Thanks for the invite, Ben, but how am I and the other three members of my family supposed to fit in your one-room apartment? It will be hell, and Grandma Theresa doesn't deserve that.”“Well, it's a good thing that I've moved to a new residence,” Benjamin smirked a bit cockily at his best friend.“Oh.” The realization hit Max. “I forgot that you still have that money from the lottery you won. I hope you're not spending it like that night at the restaurant.”Benjamin wanted to correct his best friend and tell him the true source of his wealth, but he held his tongue, deciding to wait for Max to get better and then see everything for himself.Therefore Benjamin just nodded his head at his friend's advice.Lieutenant Jason Coal was here witnessing the whole exchange between Benjamin and Max, and he was in discreet awe of the young master's s

The shameless man then ordered his spies within the hospital to spread the defamatory news that Dr. Felicia had slept with Benjamin to get that $50 million ‘thank-you' gift.Luckily, Dr. Felicia provided proof negating this news and everyone soon forgot it as they concluded that Dr. Tank must have spread this fake news due to jealousy.All this had happened in the span of a few days.Now, if Dr. Tank had walked in on Dr. Felicia making out with Benjamin, it would have been nothing short of a blessing for the terrible senior resident to make a striking attack against Dr. Felicia's reputation.Back to the present,Dr. Felicia opened the door to find Dr. Tank pointing his hands boldly at the lieutenant who looked like he was seconds away from grabbing the doctor's finger and snapping it off.“Dr. Tank, how many I help you?”Dr. Tank's gaze shifted to the junior resident and so did his pointed finger.“You?! You must be responsible for the leaked chats between me and my side chicks, right

“Do you know why I had your face slapped?” Benjamin could see that the humiliated orthopedic surgeon was listening despite not being able to answer as he was too stunned by the slaps to his face to speak.Benjamin didn't waste time answering. “It's because you dared to slander not only Dr. Felicia, but me. I have close relatives that are in this hospital, all of whom I paid more than $70 million to treat. Plus, I personally left their care in the hands of Dr. Felicia.”The audience began whispering as what Benjamin had said made sense.Dr. Tank felt like he was losing support and needed to sway the audience into believing him. Therefore, he pointed at Dr. Felicia.“Lies! Why on earth would you close the office doors if you were merely talking about patient matters, huh?!”To this, Dr. Felicia stepped forward boldly. “With all due respect, Dr. Tank, it's none of your business what another doctor is discussing with their patient. Here at Health-Bind Hospital, we're encouraged to uphol

The news began spreading around the huge hospital. Dr. Felicia was about to register five clients as her first-ever loyal clients under this hospital.This was a feat that no one would have ever believed was possible, and now, this would become a feat that no other doctor would be able to achieve for the longest time.“A Platinum-level client along with four Gold-level clients all at once. Moreover, this would be Dr. Felicia's first time.”The audience kept repeating these words like a broken record, as it was simply hard to swallow. This was too good to be true.Dr. Felicia was shaking as she gestured toward her office. “This way, Mr. Knox.” She was still waiting for the part where Benjamin would declare that he was simply pranking her all this time.That never happened though. Benjamin walked ahead into her office, and Dr. Felicia struggled through her hazy state to properly register Benjamin and the Detroit family members.As soon as Benjamin walked back out of the office, they wer

“Dr. Tank, have you lost your mind?!” Dr. Felicia yelled with a mix of shock and anger in her voice. “Let those staff members go! They did absolutely nothing to you!”“Shut up, you bitch!” Dr. Tank yelled back at Dr. Felicia with eyes red with fury. “None of this would have ever happened if you didn't collude with this bastard to steal my precious position!”He pointed at Benjamin before letting out a chuckle with a self-mocking tone.“And those traitorous executive members! Do they want to discard me?! After everything I've done for them?!”He turned his head to the ceiling in the crowded hallway as he roared out like a bestial man.“No one can discard me that easily! I'm a medical god! I reign supreme wherever I am!”“Enough, Klaus Tank.” The entire crowd in the hospital hallways turned to Benjamin, who boldly walked forward to admonish the crazy orthopedic surgeon.Benjamin pointed at the older man with a disdainful stare.“You, Klaus Tank, are nothing but an absolute piece of

The soldiers, for the life of them, couldn't understand how Anthony had done something like this in such a short amount of time. It took them twice that time to take down the armed men on their watch and rescue the captives there.Back on the floor, Benjamin received the good news. He suddenly walked forward while Dr. Tank was threatening the representative to summon the executive members or else he would order the captives to be killed.Dr. Tank's demand was straightforward. He wanted the executive members to return their utmost loyalty to him and help him out with all his problems. Then they should fire Dr. Felicia and make sure she never sees the light of day within the medical industry ever again.“I have the perfect answer for you.” Benjamin calmly walked forward before punching the shameless doctor right across the face.The crowd gasped as the doctor fell to the ground once again.“You! How dare you raise your fist at me! You've done it now! Those captives will definitely die,

“April, let her in.”April did not expect that Benjamin would say these words with such a calm demeanor. She wanted to ask if Benjamin was sure but he quickly reminded herself that this was Benjamin Knox, an incredibly smart man. He didn't even see the person standing outside yet he could tell that it was a female.This meant one thing: Benjamin knew who was coming and he must consider them harmless.Therefore, April allowed Olivia Hearts into her new home.The first thing the two heard was a whistle tone of awe before Olivia appeared past the corridor.“Oh my goodness! This place is amazing!” Olivia glanced around the penthouse before stopping in front of April with a calm smile.“I'm really jealous of you.”She then whispered into April's war.“I wish Benjamin had made me his fake girlfriend instead. I would have definitely drugged him right here and now. Then I would gladly fuck him as much as I desire…..which would be all night long. I mean, look at the package hidden beneath tho

“Benjamin is…..is this for me?!” April was left in utter shock as he looked at the penthouse Benjamin had gotten for her.She turned to him with wide eyes and mouth agar.“Tell me you're joking before I really start to take all these in.”Benjamin shook his head with an easy smile. “I'm not joking with you, April. This penthouse really is yours.”“But why?” April was confused. “Why are you giving me such an expensive gift? Though I agreed that we should be in a relationship, we are both aware that it's….fake, for my protection. You don't have to give me such a gift.”After agreeing to become a fake couple, April returned to the apartment that Principal Dice had lent her. But then she was surprised to find Benjamin waiting in front of the apartment building early the next day.She wondered out loud how Benjamin had figured out where she was hiding out and Benjamin easily let her know that it was Principal Dice himself who entrusted him with the location.Then Benjamin urged April to ge

“Not any more. Something very important just came up. I'm sorry, but I've gotta attend to it right now.”Alexa couldn't believe what she was hearing. More so, she could tell that something was off with the way her boyfriend was acting.Before she knew, the car reached the nearest bus stop and Andrew remotely opened the door on Alexa's side.“You can leave. I'll call you tonight, okay?”“No!” Alexa stared down at Andrew before spreading forth her left palm. “Hand me your phone. I want to see who sent you a text message just now.”“Alexa, what are you saying?” Andrew was definitely caught off guard by the request.Exactly what you just heard. Hand me your phone! I want to see who sent you that text message!”Alexa reached out to take the phone but Andrew suddenly grabbed onto her wrist, fighting it within a pressuring grip.“Alexa, behave. Have you lost your mind?!”Alexa winced at the pain shooting through her wrist.“Ouch! Babe, let go of my hand! You're hurting me!”Andrew glared dar

“Hello, this is August Dice speaking. How may I help you?” Principal Dice tried to hide the nervousness in his voice.“Principal Dice, this is Herbert, the Head Butler of the Whiteridge family's Prime Estate. I'm calling you on behalf of my Master, Hunter Whiteridge.”Principal Dice felt a bit surprised by this. He didn't expect that the call was an order directly from the Whiteridge family's patriarch.“Head Butler Herbert, how may I be of service to you?”Herbert went straight to the point. “Principal Dice, my master instructs me to pass on some word of advice…… or caution. You can call it whatever you want.”Principal Dice could immediately tell that this had to do with what had transpired in his office with Andrew Tyrone, Angela, and Professor Blanca.He cleared his throat. “I'm listening, Sir.”Herbert sounded as calm as ever.“Keep a low-key profile from now on, especially with the Tyrone family. We are very aware of Simon's new position within the endorsers organization. We p

Professor Blanca smirked coldly. “Principal, don't think too hard. I'm worried that your aging brain circuit might shorten out from thinking too much.”Seeing the angry state her words had left the old man in, Professor Blanca pushed further.“Look, you simply didn't get any notification about Mr. Tyrone's new status because he ordered that you not be notified.” Principal Dice didn't know what to say to this. He knew that this was a possibility from Andrew's father. But still….“And why would Mr. Tyrone keep me out of the loop on things like this?” He glared up at the woman who came bearing the heavy news Professor Blanca boldly stared with disdain.“Oh, come now, old man. Are you seriously telling me that you don't know your offenses?”She rubbed soothing hands over Andrew's shoulders. “Your ability to protect Mr. Tyrone’s beloved son has begun to irritate him deeply. His orders to keep you out of the loop of information is to send you a definitive warning.”Principal Dice let out

After the humiliating encounter with Olivia Hearts, April Scott, and, most annoyingly, Benjamin Knox, Alexa was not in the mood to entertain another interaction where someone would berate her for all the terrible things that had come to light.Yet, there was nothing she could do as she was summoned to Principal Dice's office, right along with her boyfriend, Andrew.“Miss Dove, I have to say that your actions are a blatant disregard and disrespect to the pillars of the laws that hold up this university. You bullied two of your fellows into doing your dirty work. Then you tried to physically and psychologically destroy one of them.”“And so what?!” Alexa let out in anger all of a sudden.“Those two ladies aren't shit! They're a bunch of tools I had access to, and I simply used them!”Andrew did not like the words coming out of his girlfriend's mouth so he quickly placed a firm grip on Alexa's hand, silently telling her to shut up.It was too late though. The words were already out.“Wha

She kept staring at Benjamin’s back, trying hard to tell herself that this was an illusion. Was Benjamin really serious?Back when she had decided to confess everything, BenJamin never gave any hint that he would protect her from the consequences. It left the girl wondering if Benjamin had always had this intention or if it was just something that occurred in the heart of the moment.Ever since the incident that made them cross paths more than a decade ago, April had always kept an eye on Benjamin for the longest time.Through those times, she always felt like there was no way a strong young man like that would ever want to be associated with a pushover like her.Therefore, she kept her distance.Now, things unfolded in the most mysterious way, and April can't help but think that her unfortunate encounter with Alexa was nothing but a blessing in disguise.April had gotten so lost in her head that she didn't realize that Benjamin had taken her up to the rooftop of the faculty buildin

The crowd snickered as these students failed to hold in their laughter. They could still remember the way he was beaten up the last time.Andre felt humiliated but he knew better than to show he was affected by Benjamin’s intentional insult. It would only make him look more like a loser.“How about a flex of our wealth. There's a charity case that my The Tyrone Conglomerate is hosting. I can ask my father to host a much humbler version on campus.”Benjamin frowned slightly. “And you want you and I to donate as much as we can?”Andrew grinned innocently.“Yes. There are usually many charity cases presented at such events. After all, we all know how big this city is. There are too many poverty-stricken fellows out there.”Benjamin didn't like the way Andrew was talking about the lower-class citizen, but he immediately curved his own reaction with flinching in the slightest. He could tell that Andrew was baiting him, trying to get revenge for the humiliation he suffered just minutes ago

Andrew, who was smirking the whole time at the drama unfolding before his very eyes, turned angry at those words directed at him.“Girl, I'm sure you must be talking about another family.”April scoffed. “Whatever floats your boat.” Andrew's anger became uncontainable.“Is this you making a death wish? If that's the case, then he prepared to get what you want.”April smirked. “I'm not scared of you.”Andrew's face showed his confusion.“And why not?”Before April could say anything, an attractive masculine voice pulled everyone's attention and a part of the crowd made way for the owner of this voice to walk through.“Because she has me from now on.”It was none other than Benjamin Knox.The crowd began gossiping.“Wait! April is with Benjamin? Since when?”“Babe, I don't think he meant it in a romantic way, but more like April has his protection.”“I'm curious though; why is he protecting April? The lady was one of the people who made the false accusations about him.”“But then she w
