Benjamin Knox's Rise to Riches Chapter 175
The eighteen people became silent. Benjamin wasn't only here to reprimand them; he was here to find out the truth and thus scared them immensely.Benjamin waited for a couple of seconds but he was met with silence.“You're not going to answer me? Fine, I guess I'll have to start confronting you guys one at a time.”Benjamin gestured for Anthony, who walked over with a bunch of files. He then shook his head slightly as Anthony was about to place these files on the table in front of him.“I don't need these. I've already gone through them in my head multiple times. Give these to the appropriate criminal and let them see it for themselves.”The executive members standing up felt the fear intensify, creeping through their veins as Anthony began dropping a file in front of each and every one of the eighteen people.Seconds later, there were gasps filling the meeting room as these eighteen people opened up their respective files.Benjamin clapped his hands briefly.“As you can see, each of

Benjamin whispered something in Anthony's ear, who then walked over to Dr. Felicia to pass on the message.“He'll meet you in your office.”Dr. Felicia nodded with a smile and quietly walked away, acting like nothing had just happened.Benjamin quickly found a discreet place to change before heading to Dr. Felicia's office.As for Anthony, he pulled off a layer of fake skin, revealing his true face.Unknown to those who didn't know Anthony that well, he was actually wearing a thin layer of techno skin, which altered his face a bit.Unlike Benjamin, whose face was basically covered with a mask, the mask Anthony was wearing was a more advanced one.This is, of course, thanks to the technological advancement of Coretex Tech, one of his grandfather-owned establishments.Benjamin actually ordered ten of these techno facemasks, thinking it might be too much. Instead, Coretex ended up sending more than a hundred techno face masks.This technology was like a piece of facial skin. Once you wer

Of course, some of them, like both parents, needed to go through therapy in the future. After all, Kendra Detroit still needed to get over her depression while Chester’s therapy was one on the physical side.As Benjamin left the mega-hospital, he was reminded that he was yet to get revenge on those bastards who attacked Max and his family.He still hasn't forgotten that it was because of him that Max and his family ended up this way. Therefore, it was his job to deal with them.As Benjamin was being driven back to Sunspot Estate, he conversed with Anthony.“I want to start looking into the underground network of this city.”Anthony was caught off guard by this, but he kept his demeanor.“Young Master, that is a very dangerous territory we'll be venturing into. Are you sure about this?”Benjamin took a few seconds before nodding his head sharply with a slight frown on his face.“I need to take down the bastards who brought me so much trouble.”Anthony released a breath of tension as he

Alexa shook her head as she quickly interjected.“In fact, the money didn't hold as much importance as the trust I had in Daisy. It's just that……I never, in all my years, thought that she would abandon me this way, leaving me to the problems she coerced me into.”Principal Dice raised an eyebrow.“Is this you taking accountability for the mess that has been created?’April sighed and shook her head once again.“I'm not trying to make it seem like I'm not at fault. In fact, I take full responsibility for allowing myself to be played like this. It's just….I don't know what Alexa would do to me once she finds out about what I did.”Principal Dice shook his head as well.“I was actually interrogating her about that very situation, but she, of course, would not confess, especially since the Tyrone boy was with her.” April felt intense fear at this. “Then Alexa wasn't bluffing when she claimed that nothing could touch her. The Tyrone family has become her armor.”April also recalled the th

“Did you know what she told me?! That it was you who came to her, offering me up in exchange for a way out for you!”“Calm the fuck down, April, or I'm ending this call right now!”April quickly found herself obeying her best friend's command.Honestly, this has always been their dynamic. Daisy leads and April has no choice but to follow.“Good,” Daisy spoke with a sister tone after making sure April had contained her raging emotions.“Listen up, Alexa is a lying bitch who took advantage of your attachment to weaken you.”April nodded her head as she cleaned her tears.“Then where have you been all this time?”She was acting back and forth in the old-looking bedroom right now, feeling unrest.“I've been hiding away from Alexa, of course. I needed to come up with a perfect plan for the two of us to escape her clutches.”April froze in her tracks.“Escape her clut…..Daisy, what do you mean by that?”Daisy sighed. “You've always been a slow one, haven't you? Look, just come to my apartme

Alexa giggled once again.“Are you stupid or what?! Every single thing Daisy said to you over the phone and in the text was all to get you here.”April felt a wave of betrayal hit her for the second time. The only difference in comparison to the first betrayal was that she blamed no one other than herself.“So you're telling me that Daisy was never here. She was following your orders to bait me into coming here.”Alexa clapped with a disdainful stare.“Now you finally get it. After you disobeyed me and actually dared to seek help from Principal Dice, I knew I had to keep the promise I made to you back there. I needed to teach you a lesson you'll never forget.”Andrew scoffed. “Normally, I wouldn't get myself involved in something like this, but I'm aware that my baby did all this to ruin that bastard, Benjamin. I can't have that be ruined by a lowly naive fool like you.”April began shaking. The betrayal and the intense fear were hitting her at the same time. She began whispering to h

April was appalled as he watched Andrew and Alexa begin making out, humming in pleasure at the thought of her being reduced to nothing but an unwilling sex toy.“No! Please, stay away from me!”April began backing away as these men, now fully naked, began walking towards her with cruel grins on their faces. Her back soon hit a wall and she curled in on herself, readying her mind for whatever was about to happen.She flinched when she felt a firm grip on her shoulder and she shut her eyes.But then the force that she was expecting to drag her never came. In fact, all she heard was a grunt before the grip of one of these four thugs became soft The thug who was about to tear off April's clothes had gone stiff as a bullet hole was now in his head.“Holy shit!”“What the fuck!”The three other thugs were in alarm as they jumped backward, staring in surprise as their friends fell to his back, blood oozing out of his head.April opened her eyes to Alexa’s scream, only to find everyone stari

The three women glanced at each other before nodding their heads at April. One of the other two women spoke first. “We were sent to keep an eye on you. But we couldn't get into a noticeable range until we were sure your life was in danger.”Then the other woman spoke next.“Even though we saw that stalker who was trailing you, we still didn't have the permission to provide support. So we could only remain out of your sight while we watched.”Then the girl seated at the bedside spoke next.“It was after we confirmed that the terrible witch was planning on doing something heinous with those four thugs that we got permission to provide aid.”April had multiple questions in her mind, but she went for the most important one.“You ladies keep saying someone sent you to save me. Am I at liberty to ask who is this boss, or client of yours?”Before any of these ladies could say anything, a male voice was heard as a figure entered the luxurious bedroom.“The boss would be me, Miss Scott.”Apri

“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
