Benjamin Knox's Rise to Riches Chapter 14
For a second, Andrew had actually forgotten the deal he had publicly made with Benjamin. If Benjamin failed to make the $10 million transaction successful, he would have to strip completely naked and run around the entire campus while giving consent to any student recording him on their devices and even uploading it on any and all social media platforms. If the opposite happened though, and Benjamin's transaction was successful, then it would be Andrew Tyrone who would have to strip naked while running around campus.The crowd became really excited at the turn of the event.“Damn! I totally forgot the punishment part ever since the principal showed up.”“Me too! Oh my goodness, are we really about to watch the great son of the Tyrone family strip naked in front of us?!”“Dude, not even a poor and unpopular guy would dare feel good about such a thing. I can only imagine how humiliated Andrew feels right now.”“Hey, guys! Look! The number of live viewers is suddenly surging!”“Fuck! M

“Hey, Ben, come see this!” Max rushed closer to his best friend. He had pulled out his phone and had begun watching the Livestream. “Look at this!” He then showed Benjamin the social media trend. “The hashtag ‘naked student-run’ is already trending on all platforms. The shares and overall widespread attention are insane!”Seeing this, Benjamin finally felt a sense of satisfaction. He was glad to see Andrew receiving a punishment that matched his misbehaviors.“Benjy.” Hearing his grandmother's voice, Benjamin rushed over to her and hugged her. “Are you okay, Grandma?”Theresa Knox smiled weakly at her grandson before nodding her head. “Don't worry about me, my dear. I'm fine.”It was then that Benjamin recalled the main reason his grandmother had come to the university. “Sir.” He turned to face the principal. “I was suspended unjustly by Director Thorpe earlier. I would really like for you to revoke my suspension. If you need to look into the matter first, then I can wait.” Theresa

“Yo, Brody, I must be losing my hearing.” One of the men spoke to the man in the center, calling out his name. “If not, did I just hear this loser's friend offering to pay on his behalf?” Brody stared at Benjamin for a while before letting out a snicker. “This one? You must be joking. Can't you see how he's dressed? Look at the horrible quality. He's even far worse than the loser we came here for.” He nudged his chin in Max’s direction, referring to him as the loser.“You know, you shouldn't judge a book by its cover,” Benjamin smirked confidently. “Now, just tell me how much my friend owes you.”“Hey!” Brody suddenly pointed at Benjamin with a cold gaze. “Shut the fuck up! Did you think we're here to play some fucking games?! Now, keep your mouth shut because I'm not here for you, or else, I'll gladly shut it up for you.”It was clear that Brody and his group members had concluded that there was no way Benjamin could be serious about paying them on behalf of Max. From their experien

“Are you deaf? I want you to scoop up that gum into your mouth.” Brody chuckled darkly. “Oh, and I better not see either of your hands move. You have to scoop it up off the ground with your tongue, like a good little dog would.”That was it. Max had had enough of this humiliation. “Get away from me!” He slapped away Brody's hand still gripping his hair. “I won't take this anymore! You guys have gone too far!”“Not far enough! You'll remain my dog until I'm satisfied!” Brody quickly kicked Max to the ground before the young man could get to his feet. He then turned to his henchmen. “What are you guys still standing over there for?! Hold this bastard down!”The henchmen rushed over to do exactly what they were told. They forcefully held Max down on the ground, and Brody began stomping on his back. Max could only struggle against the henchmen in futility.It was this horrible scene that Benjamin found when he finally came out of the restaurant. He was in momentary shock as he couldn't be

“Shut your fucking mouth!” Brody was getting ready to really use this dagger in Benjamin to show he was really serious, and shouldn't be messed with.Benjamin raised a finger. “One. Your time for easy redemption has now passed.”A second later, the convoy of luxurious cars finally reached the front of the restaurant. Brody and his henchmen were caught off guard as these cars immediately surrounded them, trapping them in a circle. They were utterly stunned at the sight as they glanced around them in slight fear, wondering what powerful figure was there.The car doors opened up at the same time, and about twenty men walked out of the cars, all looking incredibly well-trained. They were all in uniquely designed uniforms with one of them spotting a special design on his uniform. This signaled that he was probably the leader.Brody involuntarily took a step back as he stared at these people. He could feel the oppressive aura they possessed even though they simply stood surrounding him and

Benjamin sneered. “ What?You don't like it? I'm just doing you a favor, helping out a hungry stray dog. That's what you said to me just now, isn't it?" Brody could tell that Benjamin was giving him a taste of his own medicine. This elicited intense fury within his heart, but he knew there was nothing he could do against Benjamin right now, not when he had these scary-looking military people around.Benjamin saw that despite the evident fear, Brody was still unwilling to comply. “I can see that you need a bit of motivation to obey my command.” He shifted his gaze to the leader of the men. “Teach them what happens when they disobey.”“Understood, Sir.” The leader then instructed his men. “Deal with all three!”Fear gripped the two henchmen and they tried to run away, but they were easily caught by the strong and agile men in uniform.The leader's face was cold as he gave an order. “Break three of their right fingers!”In the next few seconds, there were sounds of sickening cracks, foll

Benjamin and Max headed into the restaurant, and they began glancing around.“Hey, where's your grandma?” Max tapped Benjamin's shoulder. “I thought you told her to come in here.”“I did,” Benjamin confirmed as he utilized his tall body, craning his neck to see into the distance. It didn't take long before he spotted his grandmother seated at a golden table surrounded by golden lights. Benjamin smiled at his grandmother until he realized that she looked very uncomfortable, causing his smile to dwindle slowly.A few seconds later, a waiter walked towards her with an arrogant expression on his face. “Ma’am, I've told you before that you can't sit here without ordering anything yet.” He looked down at Theresa Knox with disdain. “Also, it's clear that you're not meant to be seated at a gold table with the way you're dressed.”The old woman seemed to curl in on herself at the clearly insulting words directed at her. She then looked down at the poor-quality outfit she had on. “Um, I'm sorr

Meanwhile,“Oh, Benjy, thank goodness you're here.” Theresa felt relief wash over her as she saw the two young men. She quickly held her grandson’s hand. “My dear, I….I think we should leave this place.”Benjamin smiled at his grandmother, holding her hands to show his support. “Don't worry about it, Grandma. I saw everything. Trust me, everything is going to be fine. We don't have to leave this place.” He then turned a stare at Max, silently urging him to support him.Max had no idea why Benjamin was being insistent on remaining at this restaurant, especially seeing how they themselves might end up humiliated due to the way they were dressed as well. Also, the fact that a glass of water costs $1,000 really rubbed him the wrong way.Still, Max understood that he had to follow the ‘Bro-Pact’ he had with his best friend.“Grandma Knox, Benjamin knows what he's doing. Don't worry; we came to have an amazing dinner, and there was never a rule in this restaurant about being dressed in a pa

The Bugatti Sports car soon arrived at Sunspot Estate, and just like before, the security guards gave them no trouble at all. Anthony and Benjamin couldn't help but exchange a smile at the vast difference in the kind of treatment they receive now and what they dealt with on their first entry.As they approached the largest residence in Sunspot Estate, Benjamin found the rest of the thirty soldiers now stationed in various parts of the residence boundary, doing their job to secure the place. Benjamin was content with this. Anthony craned his neck slightly as he saw something by the gate. “Young Master, those two soldiers you from this morning are still serving their punishment.”“As they should.” Benjamin was confident that they wouldn't dare disobey his order as the young master and their assigned boss.The gates were immediately opened and the car went straight in. By the time Anthony opened the door for Benjamin to step out, they found three soldiers, led by a man, standing at att

Benjamin could sense how incredibly awkward things had become while driving home. This was mostly due to the tense state Anthony was in as he drove the car. Benjamin would also catch him glancing through the rearview mirror.“Anthony, if you have any questions, just ask.”Anthony chuckled nervously. “I know, Sir. It's just…..I'm afraid asking this might be too personal for you.”Benjamin had on a slight smile as he turned his gaze out of the tinted windshield. “Are you talking about the cruel method I used with those armed men?”Anthony stiffened as he nodded his head. “If it's too personal, then I understand. I'm sorry I asked in the first place.”Benjamin kept quiet for a solid minute, seemingly lost in a daze as he stared out at the late afternoon sky passing by.“That side of me you witnessed at the food truck, it's a part of me I try to keep down as much as possible. It would have never existed if not for what happened to me earlier in my life. I guess you can call it a coming-o

“Die, murhafucka!”That was when another knife came flying from the side. This armed man didn't see it coming at all, so the knife had successfully sliced through his wrist before he realized it.“Ghhaar! Fuck!” This armed man was in great pain as he dropped his pistol. He tightly held onto his profusely bleeding wrist.Anthony, in the meantime, didn't slow down his own attack. As soon as he got close to the scared armed man, he grabbed his wrist and twisted it sharply, breaking the bone, which effectively disarmed him.Anthony then followed up with an uppercut punch, which sent the man spitting out saliva as he flew through the air, dropping to the ground in an unconscious state.Just like that, all five armed men had been disarmed.Anthony shifted his gaze to the attacker who had dodged his knife. Surprised to find him in a serious state, he shifted his gaze once again to find Benjamin walking towards him with a knife in his hand.Anthony couldn't believe Benjamin had this kind of

Benjamin and Anthony hid well inside the food truck, listening as gunshots were released into the air.Meanwhile, as soon as one of these attackers shot at the food truck, a bald and muscular member quickly punched him.“Have you lost your goddamn mind?! We were only hired to teach that young man a lesson, not fucking kill him!”“C’mon, boss, I was just scaring them. I wasn't actually gonna kill him.”The bald man sighed as he looked at the frightened people running about the park with a deep frown.“I didn't expect that young man and his driver would actually notice us. Fuck it! It doesn't matter. Let's surround the truck and force them out. There's only so much space to hide in that thing.”The group of five armed men began to slowly move towards the food truck. Unknown to them, their targets were secretly watching all of their moves.While hiding in the food truck, Anthony found a mirror that happened to be propelled at the right angle. Through this, he and his young master were ab

“You don't have to talk about this, Anthony.” Benjamin made sure to convey this to his driver.But Anthony shook his head. “You're the only one who has bothered to ask me about all these. I want to tell you everything.” Benjamin saw the determination in Anthony's eyes, so he nodded his head. “Alright then. Go on.”They were murdered by a loan shark. We were not living in the best conditions and my father ended up borrowing tens of thousands of dollars. Unfortunately, he was unable to pay them. As a result, those loan sharks harvested my parents’ organs to go sell-off in the black market.”Benjamin put the pieces together. “You must have then spent the next two years in an orphanage home, right? That's where Grandpa found you.”Anthony nodded. “Master Hunter took care of me within the walls of the prime estate. Though there was little he could do in terms of the way the other employees saw me.”Benjamin sneered. “If Grandpa had interfered with such a thing, the elders and other member

The air around Benjamin's table became a little stiff as the two went quiet. Benjamin needed a moment to digest what he had just learned and Anthony gave him that moment of silence.After a while though, Benjamin sat up straight and took another scoop of ice cream into his mouth, looking like nothing serious had happened.“Then what happened?” He gave Anthony the permission to continue his event narration.Anthony nodded his head with a thin-linned lips. “Fortunately, the Whiteridge family had long been keeping tabs on my family. They suspected that they might be trying to overthrow the Whiteridge family and they had placed a smart plan to foil the assassination.”“A plan to foil the assassination?” Benjamin paused as he was about to devour another scoop of ice cream. “What do you mean by that?”“My family's assassination plan didn't make it to the final stage before it was destroyed from within.” Anthony stared off into the distance of nothingness as if he could see everything he was

Around that time, Benjamin glanced out the tinted windshield of the Bugatti as Anthony drove him home. He had noticed Anthony glancing at him multiple times through the rearview mirror.Benjamin had ignored the stares at first but it began to bother him.“Anthony, just say what you want to say. Your stares are making me feel a bit violated.”A look of guilt quickly appeared on Anthony's face. “I'm sorry, Young Master. I didn't mean to bother you like that.”Benjamin sighed as he stared back at his driver through the rearview mirror. “You want to talk about what happened at home right? The reason why those soldiers were treating you with disrespect.”Anthony kept his gaze on the road as he nodded. “Only if you'll allow me to give my side of the story. If you feel repulsed by my presence after that, I promise that I will act accordingly.”“You'll act accordingly,” Benjamin repeated those last words with a raised eyebrow. “What does that mean?”“It means I will resign effective immediate

Benjamin ended his last class for the day and he packed up, ready to leave the faculty building and head home. Before he could leave the lecture venue though, he was bombarded by some of the students in this class and even some students who flooded from outside.“Yo, Benjamin, can. I have your number! There's a sick party going on this weekend, and I'd really like you to come! I know you've never been invited to a nightclub before, so I guarantee I'll make your first time amazing.”“Benjamin, I'm hosting a party tonight instead. I promise you there's going to be the most amazing whiskey you've ever had in your life. The sexy ladies there, too, are to die for. What do you say?!”“Benjamin, I know that you're a studious guy. I'd like to invite you to join my club, The Fashionable Aces of EDU. What do you say?”Benjamin was at a loss for a while. He hadn't expected people in his faculty to suddenly change their attitude toward him. The only thing he had been certain about was that they'

Those who had already started to take a liking to Benjamin began to trend his name on the University's website, calling him a rising fashion icon. Benjamin was quite surprised when he saw that they were already ranking him in the top ten of the most fashionable men on campus. What these people didn't know was that Benjamin had settled for the ‘cheapest’ clothes and accessories he could find in his walk-in closet.He could only imagine what would happen once he started revealing the more expensive outfits he possessed.There was something that bothered Benjamin though. Knowing how people on this campus, like any other area of society, thrive off of juicy gossip, he wondered why he's barely seen a post of the video where he beat the shit out of Andrew.Benjamin had seen his fellow coursemates clearly recording the incident on their phones. In an era where views on social media have become as important as water to sustain one's life, it made no sense as to why there haven't been any p
