On the way to their current residence to bid it goodbye, Theresa was left shocked as she was seated on the rear seat of the car, holding Benjamin's hands as he narrated how he found his true heritage - The Whiteridge family.

“My goodness, Benjy! This….This is a lot to process.” Theresa genuinely looked like she was struggling to regulate her breathing as she blinked furiously.

“It all makes so much sense to me now. The black card, the spending, even your change in demeanor.” Her eyes briefly widened as something crossed her mind. “I'm guessing you were able to pay off those thugs who came after Max too, right?” She recalled that her grandson had urged her inside the restaurant, and so she never got to witness how Benjamin and Max had handled the situation.

Benjamin quickly nodded his head. “Yup, I simply paid off those creditors and they left Max alone. I'm certain we won't be seeing them again.” He wasn't about to tell his grandmother how he had found Max being bullied and how he ha

    “What's going on?” Benjamin could only crane his neck as the car couldn't move an inch past the thick crowd blocking the road.Theresa gasped as her eyes caught what was in the distance. “Oh my goodness! Benjy, our house!”At that moment, Benjamin could see the source of the red light. The one-storey run-down building at the end of the crowd was fully engulfed in flames. This was the building where Theresa lived with Benjamin - in a one-room apartment of this building.“Benjy, everything is in flames! Our belongings! They're all gone!” Theresa pulled his grandson's arm. “How could this happen?” Benjamin saw that Theresa was about to exit the car so he quickly held her hand. “Grandma, wait!”Theresa had just opened the car door before she quickly closed it back due to the alarm in Benjamin's voice. “What is it?!”“Look.” With a frown, Benjamin pointed out the windshield on Theresa's side of the car. In that direction, there was a sleek car coming to a stop just tens of feet away from

    Back in the car, Benjamin had noticed Andrew glaring at the car only to soon look away, ignoring it. He was glad that he had not allowed Anthony to drive him all the way to the university gates earlier, or else, Andrew might have recognized this car on sight. “What could they be talking about?” Theresa couldn't help but crane her neck at the suspicious two outside the car. “Benjy, something is up with those two, and something tells me that it's not good at all. Did you see the cash in the envelope that he handed to the landlord?” She kissed her teeth as another confusing question formed in her mind. “Also, how could the landlord be over here with that young man while his building is still on fire?” An idea immediately sparked in Benjamin's brain as his gaze turned to his driver. “Anthony, after you dropped me near campus, did anyone see you at all, especially Andrew?” Even though Benjamin knew the likelihood of the answer he would get, he still wanted to make sure before he snatch

    The next time the landlord came over to Theresa's apartment to bully them, Benjamin was more than ready to put him in his place. Ever since then, the landlord has never found an opportunity to get what he wanted again. This made him develop a deep grudge in his heart against Benjamin, and by relation, Theresa.Unfortunately for the landlord, he never got a valid reason to send Theresa and his grandson out of his house, especially knowing that Benjamin knew his full rights as a tenant.Then, Andrew reached out to him. It was as if the heavens had finally heard his distress. He had now found a good motivation to send Theresa and Benjamin out of his building. Even better, he was getting paid to make sure that the two got into serious trouble.Back to the present,Andrew gave the short man a side glance before nodding his head. “I'll have $50,000 wired to you remotely and that's it, got it?!” He pointed a finger at the man with a fierce expression. Once this deal was done, he didn't want

    Benjamin held his crying grandmother while glaring at the diminishing crowd in the distance. “Take us to our new home.”Anthony sat up straight at this, glad that they wouldn't be remaining in this lower district any longer. He happily got back on the roads leading to the higher districts. As time went by, the road got more perfectly started with lower traffic.“Grandma, are you okay now?” Benjamin had waited until he heard no more snuffling from his old woman.“I'm fine, my dear.” Theresa nodded her head while she was lying it over Benjamin’s shoulder. “Now, I'm just deeply disappointed in them.” She was referring to the tenants now planning to run her and her grandson down.Benjamin kept running a soothing hand down his grandmother's arm. “Don't worry, I'll handle them, especially that greedy rat.” He was referring to the landlord, of course.As time went on, the road got more scarce of other cars. As for those cars that were spotted on this road, they looked expensive.“Anthony, ho

    Things have suddenly taken a turn for the unexpected. This security guard was now raising his voice at them. This, in turn, alerted the other security guard. Before Benjamin or Theresa could even say a word, there were now four other security guards, with their firearms facing down, now surrounding the car. This inevitably attracted some attention.“We'll kindly ask you three to exit the car for thorough inspection.” The security guard who had indirectly alerted the rest spoke these words. Though the tone he used was anything but respectful.Benjamin and Theresa shared.“Benjy, what should we do?”Benjamin sighed. “Let's cooperate so we can get through this entrance without extra commotion. We've already dealt with a lot of situations in one day.”Going from discovering he's the long-lost grandson of Hunter Whiteridge. Then dealing with Alexa, Andrew, and James Thorpe. Then dealing with Brody and his henchmen. Then dealing with being disrespected at that high-end restaurant. To find

    Anthony stared down at the kneeling and pleading security guard for a moment before a cold smirk spread on his face. “Oh, so you finally figured out who my boss is, huh?”The security guard glanced up at this man before the realisation set in that he was currently begging the driver. He shifted his gaze to the young man and old woman who remained seated in the car's rear seats. Even though he couldn't see their faces past the tinted windshield right now, he had seen their faces when he first spoke to this driver earlier.“Mr. Whiteridge Sir! Mrs. Whiteridge Ma'am! I'm really sorry for what has happened today! Please, forgive my ignorance! It won't happen again!”This security guard’s voice was intensely loud. So much that his words echoed through the usually calm air at the gates. Those vehicles and pedestrians getting checked before passing through the gates all had their attention on this security guard.This inevitably made everyone present here take notice of the car Benjamin was

    Theresa's eyes widened slightly as she looked around her. She was so used to her reality of not letting most things around her matter to her. That's why she had yet to fully digest that her life was no longer that of a disrespected pauper.Benjamin frowned slightly as he recalled something while glancing down at the kneeling man. “When that security guard ordered us to exit this car a while ago. You and I were immediately about to oblige. We would have done as he instructed us. Anthony hadn't signaled us to sit back.” Benjamin shook his head. “Our behavior just then did not reflect our elevated status.”Theresa understood what his grandson was telling her. They needed to be more active in the way they reacted to how they were treated by people. From now on, they must never succumb easily to threats as it would only make them appear unfit for the Whiteridge family's power and social influence.Theresa sighed. “Adjusting to our new lifestyle will not be easy at all, my dear. But I beli

    Minutes later, the car approached a large golden gate.“Young Master Benjamin, Mrs. Knox, we're here.”Theresa gasped at the sight before her.The main gate was made in unique line patterns that gave a unique artistic feeling. As the gate was completely obstructing the view, one could see the green pasture that lay on either side of the tiled road.Theresa and Benjamin could see the stretch of lush trees on either side of the road behind this gate as well.Benjamin was amazed at the beauty he was witnessing without even getting inside yet. Still, he could see that this place couldn't measure up to the beauty that the Whiteridge Prime Estate possessed.If Theresa was shocked by the beauty of what she was seeing now, she would definitely pass out if she saw the Whiteridge family's Prime Estate.Anthony rode the car to the main gate and a call suddenly appeared on the screen built into the car. He answered the call.“State your business.” A feminine voice came through the call.“I'm Anth

    In the next second, a simultaneous sound of multiple faces slaps resounded through the hall, causing some of the people in the crowd to shut their eyes and avert their gazes. The soldiers had brutally slapped the faces of each and every one of those young men.“Fuck! What did we do?!”“Yeah! It was him that annoyed you! So are the rest of us getting bitch-slapped?!”The rest of the culprits were also feeling this injustice. It was their leader - the one who coerced them to douse Benjamin's house with urine - who kept antagonizing this masked young master from the Whiteridge family. So why were they being punished?“Shut up!” Lieutenant Jason ordered with a cold and loud voice, successfully shutting the apprehended men up. “If any of you talk shit to my young master, you all will be punished for it!”Once these young men heard this, they immediately turned their resentment to their leader.“Dude, stop messing with that guy!” “Yeah! You're just getting the rest of us in trouble.!“Br

    The older man who had just spoken to Benjamin became pissed at the audacity.“Excuse me?”Benjamin calmly repeated himself. “And so what? Your son is one of the culprits who decided that it was okay to mess with my house. And now, you're saying it's not okay to retaliate against him?”“It's not that!” The bold man spoke through his clenched jaws. “You can't just oppress my son in public without giving any face to me or the other guardians! You can't just expect us to stand here and watch you bully these young men!”Benjamin briefly shifted his mashed face to the side. “Then you should leave this venue right this instant.”The crowd gasped as this was a clear statement this mysterious Whiteridge young master was making. He had no intention of letting those young men go without paying for what they did.“What?!” The bold man became a bit shocked, and his assured demeanor seemed to deflate a bit by Benjamin’s unshaken “Didn't you hear me? I said you can leave.” Benjamin then raised his

    Seeing this, some of the attendees were not happy.“What is he doing? Why does he need bodyguards flanking him just to approach us?”“Yeah! It's like he's treating us as crazed fans or something. I don't like this.”Those who were more angry were the wealthier attendees in the audience. They also had their status and, thus, their degree of pride. So they couldn't stand being treated as if Benjamin was above them.This was even more so true for those resident owners who had come to harbor hatred for Benjamin.Benjamin understood how his actions would be perceived at this event, but he simply didn't care. He began interacting with his attendees one by one, but not everyone got to shake hands with him.For some people, Benjamin would stop before then and speak to them in an amiable tone. As for the rest, he would either acknowledge them with a simple head nod as he walked by or not even acknowledge them at all.The ones Benjamin shook hands with were of the wealthiest status, while those

    These three ladies were close to Alexa. They accepted her as soon as she upgraded by dating someone like Andrew Tyrone. They were practically her best friends.Therefore, Alexa was able to confide in them.“Girl, those two lowlifes are actually causing you trouble? Nah, girl! You gotta curb them before they let shit out.”Alexa sighed as she shifted her gaze out of the side she was seated.“And how exactly am I supposed to do that?”“Girl, you've gotta trample on them. Make them fear you more than they already do. You have the power to make their lives miserable. They'll tremble and never dare to mess with you again.”Alexa smirked coldly. Her friends have basically given her the push she needed.“Don't worry about them, ladies. I know how to deal with them.”The day of the meet-up party was now here.

However, one could tell from their demeanor that they had a bit of fear in comparison to Alexa who stood with a straight back, looking down at them as she was wearing a pair of knee-length boots, allowing her a greater height than the two ladies“Alexa, we were fooled by you!” The less pretty of the two ladies pointed a finger at Alexa.This slightly pissed off Alexa. “What the fuck are you accusing me of, bitch?! I literally fucking told you the job description and paid your asses to follow through! So tell me, Daisy, April, why are you two fucking acting like lunatics right now!”The less pretty lady is Daisy while the prettier one in April “That wasn't what you told us!” The less pretty lady, Daisy, pointed at Alexa with a bitter face.“You said we simply have to agree to your terms, and that it wasn't anything serious.”The prettier lady, April, spoke with a slightly reserved demeanor compared to Daisy who was showing more bravado

    The room became quiet as everyone in there began thinking of what to do.“The three of you should rest up. You were on guard all night.” Benjamin’s gaze shifted between Lieutenant Jason and Anthony.He then shifted his gaze to Hassan. “You too. The bullet wound will take time.”The order was given, so everyone began to walk out, except Hassan, who stopped by the doorway, turning around to stare at Benjamin.“Sir Whiteridge, why exactly are you being kind to me? I doubt this is merely out of the kindness of your heart.”Benjamin stared at him in silence for a while. “Alright, Since you want the answer so badly.”The young man got up from his seat, resting his fists on his desk as he hunched over it.“Hassan Corey, I want you to work for me from now on.”This definitely caught the injured man off guard.“Are you serious?! You….You really trust me?”Benjamin scoffed. “Trust you? That is something you have to earn, Mr. Corey.”He saw the hesitance in the injured man's eyes and he sighed,

    Nevertheless, Theresa knew something dangerous must have gone down yesterday, but she respected her grandson's privacy.She cupped his face with both of her palms as she stared up with great concern written all over her face.“Benjy, you're okay, right?”Benjamin smiled and held Theresa's palms underneath his as he gently nodded his head with a smile. “I am.”Minutes later, Benjamin was now in his office with Head Butler Lia, Anthony, Lieutenant Jason, and surprisingly, Corey Hassan.Head Butler Lia played the footage from the CCTV cameras that caught the flying drones which dumped the large bags of foul liquid on the residence.Benjamin has the footage replayed from various angles to determine where they were sent from.Benjamin, seated behind his desk, turned to the four people in his office with a hand beneath his chin.“What do you guys think?”Anthony shook his head. “Young Master, I think these drones were sent from somewhere nearby.

    Benjamin and Dr. Felicia dispersed from the hotel very early that morning, heading off to their respective homes.Benjamin wasn't having a class today. Even if he did, he knew it would be best to stay as far away from campus. Though Principal Dice was keeping the scandal about him from escalating, that doesn't mean that Alexa and whoever was behind the accusations would keep things that way.Still, Benjamin wasn't afraid of anybody. One of the major reasons holding him back is the identity he was still keeping a secret.He soon arrived back home and as he approached his residence, he frowned at the sight.“What is this?” Benjamin murmured to himself as he found that the gates were covered in some sort of liquid content.The closer they got to the residence, the clearer the liquid stain became. They could see the housekeepers working hard to clean this thing, and some of the soldiers were helping as well.The gates were opened and Anthony drove the car inside, only to find that the fro

    The hotel suite was filled with moans and the air thickened with the air of carnal activities as Benjamin and Dr. Felicia went at it for hours.“Benjamin, ooooh! Yeah, fuck me right there! Don't stop! Fuuuuuck! Please, don't stop!”Dr. Felicia was losing her mind as Benjamin kept plunging deep into her from the back. Benjamin was much sweatier than her and the moist skin accentuated every ripped muscle on him. It also revealed the varying levels of scars he had accumulated on his body through the years he grew up in hardship.“Fuck!” Dr. Felicia had her head tilted up at the ceiling as she rode on Benjamin’s impressively sized road. Her eyes were crossed and she would involuntarily giggle at the intense pleasure spreading through her body as Benjamin held her firmly by the waist, guiding her gyration as he met her in the middle of every thrust.Benjamin smirked as he gazed up at the doctor. He had quickly found her G-spot and he was hitting it with incredible movements. He liked watc
