Benjamin Knox's Rise to Riches Chapter 140
“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,

From his seat, Benjamin stared at the faces of these ladies, including Alexa’s. They were all in an angry mood.“What is this? What's going on?”“Shut up, you shameless guy?!” One of the ladies pointed boldly at Benjamin’s face. “You still have the audacity to feign ignorance?! After everything has been uncovered?!”Another one of these ladies scoffed. “I should have believed Alexa when she told us that you were nothing but a scoundrel! You know, she told us of how you manipulated her into a relationship for a while. If it wasn't for Andrew Tyrone who saved her, you would have kept using her for your own needs!”Another lady stared at Benjamin with disdain. “And to think the whole campus was starting to like you!”Benjamin was a bit pissed by this as they were yelling at him in the classroom, attracting so much attention. It wasn't just his though. A lot of other students, who Benjamin was sure had no business being in this venue, were now entering the room as well. Most of them hel

Benjamin was a bit caught by surprise as the students in the filled-up hallways began throwing stuff at him.“I hope you go to prison, you piece of shit!”“You're really disgusting!”Benjamin could tell this wasn't normal at all. This behavior wasn't just the expected reaction of an angry person, but it seems like it was instigated.At that moment, Anthony and Lieutenant Jason rushed in to shield their young master.“Hey, back off!” One of the security guards tried to push the lieutenant back, only to be grabbed and his arm ended up twisted behind his back.The angry students froze at this display.“Hey, let go of me!” The security guard with the twisted arm struggled in futility against Lieutenant Jason’s hold.The other security guard tried to intervene, but he was immediately blocked by Anthony with a cold look that shook him intensely. It was like he could feel the murderous intention in Anthony's eyes.It was safe to say that Anthony and Lieutenant Jason would not hesitate to kil

Benjamin's demeanor was truly domineering. He seemed so self-assured in himself that it made the two security guards feel like they might have truly bitten more than they could chew by messing with this young man.What's this?! Wasn't he supposed to be a weak student with barely enough money to keep up his wealthy facade?!Benjamin sighed with annoyance as these two security guards weren't answering him. He glanced at one of the soldiers, who then walked forward to slap both the guards hard across the face.These two felt the intensity of the brutal hit against their face, and it opened their heads to the realization that they'd seriously messed with the wrong person. They immediately went down on their knees.“We're sorry, young sir! It was….”“I don't care for your pathetic excuses or explanations.” Benjamin was getting agitated by these pathetic men. “Just answer the question.”One of the security men finally answered.“We've been ordered to not take you to the student's affairs bu

Benjamin had no desire to remain on campus, and he decided it was best to leave here for now. He doubted that he would be able to attend the rest of his classes today without invoking more trouble.The students of EDU knew about what Benjamin had been drained of, and Benjamin doubted if there were enough students who doubted the claims against him.Knowing this, they would definitely not let him attend his classes in peace. For goodness sake, even the lecturers he came across as he was leaving the principal's building were outwardly showing their disgust toward him.Therefore, Benjamin got into his car and left with Anthony, Lieutenant Jason Coal, and his team.Anthony could see the slight frown on his young master's face as he drove along the road. “Young Master Benjamin, should we head straight home?”Benjamin shook his head. “I'm hungry. Take me to a nice restaurant. I don't care which one.” This was definitely not the reply he expected from his young master, but he sharply nodde

For a couple of seconds, there seemed to be no sound other than the barrage of gunshots that filled the air, commemorating the lives that were being snuffed out brutally at that moment.One of the five shooters raised a hand as he let out a command to the other four.“Halt!”He then whispered to the Tyrone guy.“Boss, they're all dead.”Meanwhile, the subordinate who had received the rifle from the boss stared at Benjamin, a deep frown forming on his face before he called his boss's attention to something.“Boss, look at that kid. He's not normal. He just witnessed us massacre our own men and he didn't flinch. Also, he hasn't changed from his initial position before we fired at those idiots. How is this possible?”The muscular Tyrone man stared at Benjamin with increasing amusement in his gaze.“Damn, it seems my little brother had been facing a hidden tiger cub this whole time. I can't wait to deal with him.”With a sickening smile on his face, the boss straightened his suit jacket b

Minutes later, every single one of these masked men was left on the ground in great pain. Some of them were now without their leather jackets. Some had their clothes completely dirty as they had been dragged brutally across the ground like dirty rags. They all had some form of intense injury from fighting Benjamin.As for the weapons they had confidently held onto, they were now scattered around the fighting area.Benjamin had disarmed every one of these masked men while still not showing any sign of fatigue.In fact, Benjamin has no drop of sweat on his face, and his clothes remain neither dirty nor scrunched. It was basically like he wasn't the one who fought all twelve armed masked men in the first place.A masked man, holding on to his injured back, was able to force himself into a stand.“You….You think just because you can fight that you've won?! I'm going to fucking show you your place, you piece of trash!”The masked man retrieved a pistol, pointing it straight at Benjamin.“Y

“That is a risk I'm willing to take. As long as April comes out of this unharmed, I'm fine.”Max was left shocked at this reply. Looking at his best friend's face, he could tell that Benjamin showed no hesitation even though the possibility that he was going to be in great danger was high. He persisted one more time.“Ben, what if this person's intention goes beyond just harming you? What if the intention is to kill both you and April?”Lieutenant Jason jolted up, knocking his head against the roof of the jeep as he heard those words from Max's mouth.“That won't happen! I won't let the boss get into that kind of danger.”Anthony spoke to Benjamin with a soft tone, conveying his deep worry.“Boss, please, reconsider. I doubt this person would hurt April even if you don't meet the conditions that have been given to you. It's clear that the main target here is you.”Olivia nodded her head reluctantly, thinking through multiple angles of this situation.“I think your bodyguard makes a lo

In the satellite footage obtained by Andy, everyone saw that the ambulance that was used to transport April to the hospital had actually been intercepted midway by two masked men on a bike.These two men wore full-on leather jackets, pants, boots, and hand gloves.While the one in front maintained the bike’s velocity with that of the ambulance. The other pulled out a gun and pointed it at the medics driving the ambulance.Due to the satellite footage being without audio, Benjamin and his group couldn't understand what was being said. But that wasn't necessary as this could be easily deciphered.The footage displayed as the ambulance soon came to a stop and the two medics came out with their hands raised in the air.It was clear that the masked man with the gun had threatened to kill these medics if they didn't stop the ambulance. Obviously, the medics had no choice but to concede to the threat.Unfortunately for them, they still ended up with a bullet each drilled into their brains by

About half an hour later, Benjamin had rushed straight to the university's private hospital to meet his friends.April was missing, or rather, she had been kidnapped. The latter were the words that Max had spoken to him on the phone while he was with Principal Dice earlier.After Benjamin got this news, he was stunned. This scenario was not something he had anticipated.He had quickly said a last few words to the principal, ensuring that he handled the situation with Landlord Isaac Shawl and the protesters who were hell-bent on killing their leaders after learning of his unforgivable crimes.Benjamin had them quickly go out to find Anthony, Lieutenant Jason, and the remaining Whiteridge soldiers who were left with him, all waiting for him.Together, they got to their destination.Benjamin had been informed of the floor Max and Olivia was on during his shirt trip here, so he quickly led his team up the elevator.“Max, he's here!” Olivia had quickly pulled Max's attention away from the

Isaac Shawl stared at the faces of his wife, daughter, and everyone else in the office.The expression on each of these faces had their nuances when compared, but one thing was clear - they all saw him as a monster right now.“You guys! Wait, I can explain! You don't understand!”Isaac's attempt to swallow his confession was practically impossible at this point.The wide walked forward with a horrified expression.“You can explain? Fine, then explain yourself. What exactly don't we understand about everything you just spewed from your disgusting mouth?”The guilt dug deeper into Isaac, his gaze showing his hurt as he could feel the wave of disappointment from his wife.“My dear.” He could only whisper this word with a broken voice as he stared up at his wife with eyes conveying a silent apology.Isaac's wife was known to be quite gentle. Even through their decades of being together, she was always careful with her reprimand as she knew that her husband, despite his shrewd ways, had an

“I want the name of the person who hired you.”In reality, Benjamin was already fully aware that the Tyrone family was behind everything that had to do with the arson and even this protest. The fact that such a move was held off for the past six months was an adequate agent of suspicion that there was someone manipulating everything from behind the scenes.The truth was that Benjamin wanted Isaac Shawl to confess publicly, betraying the backer who gave him the guts to fool so many people.Benjamin wanted the old landlord to not only confess in front of Principal Dice and the two police officers, he wanted Isaac Shawl to confess to a bunch of people who had arrived with the two policemen but were hiding just outside the office.Isaac Shawl was currently thinking of how he could maneuver this situation. He didn't like that someone he had always looked down upon was now doing the same to him. It didn't help at all that he was physically on his knees, looking up at Benjamin like he was fa

Watching everything, Isaac Shawl was shaking.Seated right beside him, Benjamin couldn't even watch the screen. Listening to the voice of the true arsonist on the confession video was already enough to get his blood boiling. Though he maintained his putter demeanor, he was currently releasing an uncontainable emotion that bleed into his aura.In fact, unknown to Isaac Shawl, Benjamin’s aura played a part in how he found his body shaking uncontrollably.To be honest, growing up in his childhood home was a long-term trial that constantly tested Benjamin's patience and ability to adapt to a constantly constraining environment.Growing up, most of his neighbors actually bullied him and his grandmother. The two were the constant subject of ridicule that everyone around them used to entertain.Also, there had been countless times that Theresa had endured so much humiliation while taking care of Benjamin.The neighbors constantly criticize her for adopting a baby in her old age, coupled with

It was the face of a man who looked like Benjamin in his late twenties, but this man had a battered face and his surroundings looked like an enclosed space with dim light.Still, Isaac Shawl could recognize this man. After all, he was the one who hired him to plant the chlorine fluoride tank in Theresa's apartment, which then gave him the ability to blame Benjamin as the arsonist.That's right. The face on Principal Dice's laptop screen is that of the real culprits - the actual arsonist who caused the explosion of Benjamin’s childhood home.Isaac Shawl felt like he was being doused completely in a bucket of ice water, the unforgiven coldness rushing through his spinal cords and permeating through every cell in his body.The shrewd landlord wasn't dumb. Becoming a landlord in a dangerous vicinity of the slums, this man had to hone his street smartness, becoming incredibly adept in maneuvering through terrible situations, especially when the situation was a crime.Just from seeing the r
