Benjamin Knox's Rise to Riches Chapter 210
“Shut the fuck up, you liar! My baby would never cheat on me. Also, I'm not a gold digger like you, bitch. I truly love Andrew, and it's not for his wealth.”April stifled her laugh as she looked away.As for Olivia, she raised an eyebrow at Alexa.“Are you sure about this? I'm asking because I have proof that you were outside the hotel with your sorority loser friends while I was barely feeling anything under the sheets with your underperforming boyfriend.”“Olivia, I won't take this slander from you!” Andrew pointed at the beauty with fury. He was actually angry at the fact that his sexual ability was being degraded right now.There were people already seated in the Grand Hall, and a lot of them were currently listening to their conversation going on over here.Therefore, Andrew felt utterly humiliated by Olivia’s words as a man.Right now, neither Alexa nor Andrew could look at each other. The truth was out, and Olivia even claimed she had proof. And if there's one thing that could

Benjamin stood in front of his entourage, staring down at the two women who had just been subjected to humiliation. He was pissed. He was very pissed. But no one could tellBenjamin was perfectly masking his current mood to the scene he had just walked in to find.“Are you both okay?”April teared up. “Benjamin.” Her voice conveyed her great relief at the sight of this young man.Benjamin walked over, pulling over his jacket before going down on his knees to wrap it over the porch lady's shoulders.Max was incredibly appalled. This was his first day back on campus. Finding such a horrible scene made him mad. He was right behind his best friend, checking on Olivia while Benjamin was attending April. After all, both girls were subjected to this assault.Max wrapped his $50,000 worth of jacket around Olivia with worry on his face.Olivia, on the other hand, sniffed the jacket before smirking up at Max.“Oooh, my hero is here to save me. Your cologne smells nice by the way.”Max's brain

April nodded her head slowly as she blinked away the tears threatening to fall down her face.“Thank you for saving us.”Benjamin sighed. “I'll make both of them pay for this.” He referred to both Andrew and Alexa.April shook her head. “No, I don't want you getting into trouble just because of what those bullies did to me. Trust me, it's not worth it…..”“Yes, you are.” Benjamin cut April off mid-sentence, his tone was stern, as if he was conveying that he wasn't happy that April was belittling herself.“April, as far as anyone on this campus is concerned, you are my girlfriend. That means Andrew would see you as a significant person of interest who he can exploit to get to me. Then there's the fact that you already have unresolved enmity against Alexa.”April sighed. “Those two won't be leaving me alone any time soon, will they?”Benjamin reached out to gently hold April by her chin, pulling her face up to look him in the eyes.“If this feels a bit too much for you, maybe you and I

Olivia pretended to think about it for a while before wiggling her index finger, gesturing for Max to come closer. She then pulled him in the rest of the way and placed a kiss on his cheek before whispering in a seductive tone.“You get one chance to heighten my interest in you.”Max swallowed hard on his saliva as he felt his body heat up. He understood what was being said. Still, he didn't want to feel like his crush was so easily discernible, so he pretended otherwise, or he tried to, at least.“And what makes you think this is an offer enticing enough for me?”Olivia raised an eyebrow and tilted her head, striking a seductive pose that easily made Max's eyes glade down her body. This instantaneous reaction from Max made Olivia giggle. “It's because you're too easy to read. I know you want me.”Max knew that he'd been totally caught by this gorgeous beauty, and he had no desire to pretend anymore. Thus, the air heated up as he simply stared into Olivia's enchanting eyes, causing

Max was pissed-off at those derogatory words directed at his best friends on purpose. If it had been in the past, he would tell himself to let it go as they were both too weak in power to retaliate and gain back some face.Currently, though, things have become vastly different. He was now aware that Benjamin was the farthest thing from nobody. Max wasn't the only one. Lieutenant Jason was also pissed, tightening his fists that were hidden at his back as he stood at ease. He wanted to teach that host a big lesson, but he needed his young master's command for that.The whole time, Benjamin simply stared at the host antagonizing him Once the host was done talking, Benjamin began walking toward the seats that were pointed to him. He ignored the whisperings of insults by those already seated as he walked by. Unknown to everyone, Benjamin had his eyes on the important guests who were seated on the stage. He could see that there were a lot of charity CEOs, along with the top-tier business
Benjamin Knox's Rise to Riches Chapter 215
The stage had gone awkwardly silent. The guests on the stage glanced at each other with no words right now. They've never met a nobody who would boldly disregard them like Benjamin just did.Each of these guests is powerful in their own right and also known well within New Stone City. It was really rare for them to see someone who was far beneath their status demand respect in such a way.A lot of these guests were pissed, but they didn't dare stand up. After all, they all witnessed how Benjamin had verbally retaliated against the businessman who stood up to him. They didn't want to be publicly disrespected as well.Therefore, they kept quiet.This silence did not help the host at all, as he was hoping one of these guests would put Benjamin in his place. He glanced up at Andrew who remained seated as well.In the meantime, Principal Dice tightened his fists as he watched on, wanting so badly to stand up in support of the Whiteridge family's hidden young master. But then he recalled th

Andrew rolled his eyes in annoyance before focusing back on Benjamin, who was still hell-bent on having his demand met.“Apart from all that, I'm far more concerned about the way these guests would see me. These people are associates of my father. They agreed to my invitation because they wanted to evaluate my worthiness as a favored son of my father.”“If I willingly let Benjamin walk away now, the public shame would only come down on me. These guests would see me as unworthy of my last name, and it would make it hard in the future to become the appointed heir of the Tyrone family's business empire.”Alexa sighed as she struggled to digest the absolute gravity of what Andrew was saying.Still, she understood the important part.“In that case, why don't you just give in to Benjamin’s demand. Let him and his loser group settle on the opposite balcony and let this show on the road. I doubt your guests have all day.”Andrew shook his head. “I can't.”Alexa was confused. “Why not.”“Becau

Lieutenant Jason adjusted himself in the seat.“Your cousin, Ma'am Veronica, was given the task of handling the family's shares within the Tyrone business empire. This happened five years ago after she successfully went through a series of tests that highlighted her honed skills at handling these kinds of assets.”Benjamin raised an eyebrow as he stared down at the balcony above the center of the stage, particularly at the veiled woman.“You said she was tasked with handling the family's assets within Tyrone's business empire. How old is she?”Lieutenant Jason glanced down at Veronica. “I believe she should be twenty-eight years old.”Benjamin nodded his head in understanding. The fact that she was able to gather the trust of his grandfather and the Whiteridge family elders was a testament to her ability.“That will be all. You can return to your post.”Lieutenant Jason stared at his young master with a light frown. He looked like he had more to say, but ultimately chose to keep his m

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

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
