Theresa kept going on for a couple of minutes before her smile dwindled slightly as she recalled something. “Benjy, I'm still quite worried about what happened with the old residence.”This brought a slight frown to Benjamin's face as well as he recalled seeing the old greedy landlord with Andrew. “Don't worry; sooner or later, whatever plans they've cooked up will be unveiled.” Benjamin gently reached out to hold Theresa's hand as he could see the worry on her face. “C’mon, I'm the grandson of Hunter Whiteridge. Nothing either of those two could do will affect me in any way. Not when I have the name and power of the Whiteridge family as my backing.”Theresa nodded her head slightly as she knew the truth in Benjamin's reassurance. A few seconds later, Lia Locks returned with two boxes. She placed one in front of Benjamin and placed the second one before Theresa.Theresa was not expecting this. “Wut, for me?!”Lia Locks smiled gently. “Of course, I'm aware that you don't have a phon
There was a moment of silence before the masculine AI voice spoke again. “The name ‘Andy’ has a nice ring to it.”Benjamin began talking to the customized AI in his phone as he headed to his bedroom, asking various questions about what it was capable of doing. He was stunned by its basic capabilities.A couple of minutes passed by when Benjamin recalled the notification he received on his old phone.“Andy, I want you to dig out the latest articles on the news surrounding the tunning naked student of Elites Domain University.”“Young Master, would you prefer to read through the article yourself or should I give you a summary?”Benjamin smiled when he heard this. “The latter, please. It would make my research a whole lot easier.”“Alright, Sir. I'll need a minute.”Benjamin walked towards the couch by one of the floor-to-ceiling windows in his bedroom. He had expected Andy to truly need a minute to summarize the multiple articles before it would reply to him. But…..Benjamin had only ta
Benjamin got off the couch and began pacing back and forth slowly. He began thinking of another angle. He soon came up with something.“Andy, can you find out if there's any substantial connection between the Tyrone family and Roots Media Globals.”Half a minute later, Andy spoke.“On the surface, the relationship between the Tyrone family and Roots Media Globals seems very low, but…..then I dug into the profiles of important figures at that media police organization.Benjamin was surprised Andy took this initiative but he nodded in understanding anyway. “What did you find?”“Young Master, it seems one of the executives is close friends with the patriarch of the Tyrone family.”The phone screen suddenly lights up to show an old picture of two young men with their arms over the other shoulders while smiling at the camera. They appeared to be in the company of other people. Based on this image, the two men highlighted appeared to be at a classic bar.Andy began explaining. “The man on t
“Grayson, since the Whiteridge family owns more than 90% of the shares, the organization is basically under our command, right?”“Absolutely, Sir. As long as a member of the Whiteridge family does not go overboard, all commands from the family are taken with utmost consideration.”Grayson's words basically implied that refusing an order from a member of the Whiteridge family is not done by Roots Media Globals.Benjamin became even more confident as he gave his instructions. “Then I want you to deliver an order to restore all the deleted posts on the running naked man of Elites Domain University. Not only that. I want 60% of these posts to be promoted for a month. Let them know that this order is coming from the young master of the Whiteridge family.”“Understood, Sir.” Grayson's answer was immediate. “But, Sir, would you like your name to be revealed?”“No, keep my identity a secret. Things should go smoothly without having to reveal my name or face, right?”“Of course, they wouldn't
“The driver who got you here?” Head Butler Lia Locks frowned in confusion. “He should be at his quarters right now.”Benjamin tilted his head slightly. “His quarters…….and where is that exactly?”“It's outside the mansion.” Lia Locks picked up on the confusion on her young master's face. “He's a driver, Sir. It's not allowed for drivers and other outer employees to live within the mansion.”Benjamin nodded his head in understanding. After entering this mansion for the first time, he had been incredibly busy with other issues that he had failed to notice that Anthony Wood didn't enter the mansion with him when they arrived. The man had simply stopped at the bottom of the shirt flight of stairs leading up to the mansion's main entrance.Benjamin brought his focus out of his head. “Alright, please, have him come into the mansion. By the way, I remember there's a private study for me, right?”Lia Locks nodded her head. “Yes, Sir. Is that where you want to have the meeting with Mr. Crow?”
“Sir Andrew, the internet. All those posts about your….um, situation. It has all been re-uploaded on the internet.”Andrew frowned at first in confusion, but his heart lurched as he understood what this maid was trying to tell him a couple of seconds later.“What the fuck are you saying?” Andrew's cold gaze made the female housekeeper take a step back in fear before she hesitantly spoke gain.“Sir, the deleted videos on the internet are back.” She stretched her hand forward, showing the screen of her phone.Andrew involuntarily craned his neck forward to take a good look at the screen, and his body ran cold at the hashtags that were clearly alluding to the posts that should have stayed dead forever. What was more shocking was the millions of posts now under it.“How is this possible?” Andrew refused to believe it. “Get your phone out of my face and get out of my room, now.”The low-tone order carried so much chill that the maid felt a shiver run down her spine as she bowed slightly b
“Mom, I really didn't expect things to turn out this way. All I did was make a freaking bet against that poverty-stricken bastard at school.” He was, of course, referring to Benjamin. “I had no idea that Principal Dice would suddenly appear to take his side.”Angela scoffed. “Oh, I heard about everything that went down concerning this situation.” She rolled her eyes in annoyance as she turned her gaze back to her husband. “Augustin Dice, huh? Why is that old fool suddenly turning against our son?”Simon stared out the exquisitely designed glass window behind him with a gentle shake of his head.“I honestly don't know. That principle has been ignoring my calls ever since. He has always threaded carefully when it comes to the matter of our Tyrone family, and yet, he joined forces with a nobody to pressure my son into running around campus naked.”Simon tightened his fists as he held his hands behind his back. “It doesn't make sense no matter how I think about it.”“My goodness, Simon.”
Both Simon and Angela were now convinced that they were in deep trouble. Though Simon addressed the executive member he had reached out to at Roots Media Globals as a friend, the truth is they were no more than business acquaintances. The major reason that man had helped out Simon and his family was because of the prestige the Tyrone name carried. He knew that Simon could make him pay for not helping him out.So the aid Simon had received earlier was out of fear, not out of care. For such a fear to be suddenly gone, it meant that a greater fear had replaced it.Simon and Angela, both being the arrogant kind of people, were certain that the executive member at Roots Media Globals must be scared of the unknown figure who ordered the humiliating posts about their son to be returned on the internet.“Simon, this…..who could this person antagonizing our family be?” Angela stared at her husband with worried eyes as she asked in a weak tone.Andrew felt his heart squeezed as he heard his m
