Benjamin Knox's Rise to Riches Chapter 31
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

Immediately, the men and women behind his butler did the same thing, welcoming Theresa formally as well.Lia Locks then clapped her hands and the men and women behind her created a path to the entrance of the mansion.“Young Master, Mrs. Knox, please, come into the mansion.” Lia Locks gestured to the opened path.Still holding Theresa's hand, Benjamin led the way inside the mansion. Theresa was immediately reminded of what Anthony had told her about this place being more of a paradise than the roads that led them here. The driver was right.The interior design of this mansion was exquisite and the living area was well furnished with complementary items and colours. It was vibrant in a calm sense.“Grandma, I think we should go to bed first.” Benjamin quickly called back Theresa as he could see her curiosity growing. Theresa poured, not liking this idea. “Benjy, shouldn't we check this place out thoroughly before thinking of rest? This place is huge, and I'd hate to get lost.”“Grand

[Hold on. Isn't this guy from a rich family, though? Is his family just gonna allow him to be humiliated like this?][Yeah, I thought the same thing as well. Or could it be possible that the Tyrone family is not as powerful as we thought?][Yo! You dipshits don't even know what you're tapping here online about. Watch and see how the Tyrones will bring this video down soon.]Benjamin frowned slightly as he read the comments to this point. He was also beginning to wonder why The Tyrone family hadn't done anything about this video yet. With the way this video and others like it have been going viral, he would have expected such a powerful family to have taken action by now.Benjamin continued reading the comments:[Yeah, I agree with this. The Tyrone family definitely wouldn't do nothing.][Then why is it taking so long? Looks like the people are really overrating this family.][This is actually the least of my concerns right now. What about the people who posted these videos online? I

As a result, Solomon could only watch with increasing agitation as Benjamin brutally beat down all five henchmen.Benjamin was nice with his hits either. By the time he was done, all five men had suffered incredibly jarring wounds that left them unable to even get up.Benjamin turned a smug expression to the furious Solomon, gesturing at his fallen henchmen.“I broke a couple of bones here and there. You said you wanted to hear bones crack, right? You're welcome.”Solomon couldn't endure this. Benjamin was being far too oppressive for his liking.If words got to his father, it would only become a huge cloud of shame on his reputation.“Fuck!” Solomon got up with fury on his face.“My father called me in from France just to deal with you! Failing is not an option!”He quickly grabbed one of the rifles that his henchmen had dropped before going to fight. He pointed it straight at Benjamin.“Let's see you act cool by the time I've blown irreparable holes in your fucking chest!”Seeing th

Inside the under-constructed building, Solomon Tyrone sat on a chair with a level of expensive designs on it, making that chair look completely out of place with the surroundings of the under-constructed building they were in.Solomon watched Benjamin, sending for any degree of fear or even nervousness. He was disappointed when he found none of those.“Mr. Benjamin Knox, you just witnessed me blow up your expensive car. Why are you not upset about this?”Benjamin shrugged. “Simple. I have two other cars just like that.”At this point, Solomon could no longer pretend like Benjamin's nonchalant attitude wasn't getting to him. He was now sporting a sneer on his face.“Benjamin, it seems you have no idea what kind of situation you're in.”He signaled to his men while speaking to Benjamin.“Perhaps I should remind you.”All five men dropped their snipers as they began approaching Benjamin, cracking their knuckles and letting out dark chuckles with teasing expressions on their faces.Benjam

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
