Benjamin Knox's Rise to Riches Chapter 62
Benjamin woke up early. It was now Sunday and he had a schedule to keep up with. He had received a call from the prime estate's Head Butler Herbert.“Grandma, I'm going to the Whiteridge's Prime Estate to visit Grandpa,” Benjamin informed the old woman as they were seated at the dining table, having their breakfast for the day.“Oh?” This was definitely news to Theresa Knox. “I had no idea you were leaving the mansion today.”“We are.” Benjamin gestured at Theresa and him with his finger. “You're coming with me. Grandpa wants to meet the benevolent woman who saved and raised me.”Theresa's tea spoon slipped right out of her hand right into the cup of tea, splashing some in her dress.“Huh?!” Theresa was left shocked by this. “Do……do you mean it?! Mr. Whiteridge himself wants to meet me?!”The female housekeeper standing not too far quickly rushed over to help Theresa clean up the spill while the old woman herself was still frozen as she's struggling to believe this.Benjamin frowned w

Benjamin smiled as he gazed out at Anthony. “It's because of me.” He shifted a satisfied gaze to his grandmother. “Anthony must have remembered that I don't want my identity as the owner of the biggest residence in Sunspot Estate to be attached to my face.”Theresa’s eyes widened as the realization hit her. “Oh my goodness! You're right! If he had rolled down the windshield, those security guards would have definitely seen your face.”“Exactly.” Benjamin smiled wider before gazing back out at the car. “He's brilliant, isn't he? I didn't have to tell him what to do, and yet…..”“He used to be a driver at the Whiteridge's Prime Estate, right?” Theresa let out a sigh. “Surely, your grandfather only allowed the best in every aspect. I can see why Anthony was designated to you. He's not just your driver, he's also like a protector.”Meanwhile,“How can I help you?” Anthony stood with a straight back, facing these two security guards with a stern expression. He hasn't forgiven this unit for

The housekeepers knew they had crossed a line. So they bowed apologetically before they rushed back inside the mansion. The mention of Benjamin's dead father brought a moment of awkwardness to them. Benjamin's eyes held ominously at that moment. Theresa held the young man's hand tighter, letting him know that she was there.Herbert sighed before bowing. “Apologies for those bratty housekeepers running their mouths, Young Master.”Honestly, Benjamin didn't know how to feel hearing about his father. He barely knew both him and his biological mother.As long as Benjamin could remember, Benjamin was raised by Theresa. The old woman was the only one she felt a sense of parental bond towards.Benjamin brought his attention back to the present and he nodded while giving a tight-lipped smile. “It's nothing. Where's Grandpa?”“In his office,” Herbert spoke with a professional demeanor as if the last few seconds didn't even happen. He led them into the mansion.Herbet turned a warm gaze to the

“At the moment, there are none of the family members in the estate.” The female voice responded to the patriarch. “They should have all returned to their respective estates, Sir.”The call quickly came to an end as Hunter confirmed to his grandson that he was in the green.Hearing this, Benjamin nodded his head with a slight smile.“I'm glad to hear this. Honestly, I brought a disguise with me in case it turns out that there are relatives around.”Hunter stared up at his grandson for a couple of seconds. “Benjamin, are there any other reasons you don't want to see your blood relatives that I don't know about?”Benjamin stared down at his grandfather with a clear expression. “No, there are no other reasons. I'm simply taking things seriously.”Benjamin understood his grandfather being suspicious of him and he was aware that he was outwardly taking this intention of total avoidance very seriously. Anyone who saw the way Benjamin was making sure to keep away from the rest of the Whiteri

Herbert allowed a moment to pass before speaking again. “Your relatives….they're the ones who bear the brunt of these assassination attempts. Being members of the family on top also means that you're susceptible to being besieged from all sides. That's why we have a private barracks. Men and women are trained heavily before being assigned to protect members of the family.”“So these military men and women are our family's owned bodyguards.” Benjamin wasn't asking a question but rather making a conclusive statement from everything Herbert had said. He nodded his head. “Got it.”The black jeep never stopped for a moment in the barracks. Anthony was instructed by Herbert to simply drive around the barracks before they left.Benjamin was absolutely fine with this. He wasn't interested in interacting with these soldiers for the moment.The tour was over within three hours. Now, Anthony drove them back to the main mansion.On their way back, Herbert glanced at Benjamin. “Young Master, how i

Herbert, who walked behind both the young master and the driver, noted the interaction. He had also heard the whispered words between the housekeepers, but he pretended otherwise. He wanted to see how Benjamin would react to this, and he was quite surprised by it.This moment with the whispering went by in a minute. The group of three men soon reached the living area, and Benjamin was surprised at what he found there.At some point during his tour around the estate, Hunter had left his office and come down to meet Theresa Knox. Right before Benjamin's eyes, Theresa was blushing furiously as she was chatting with Hunter. The almost comical part of this, though, was that Theresa was giggling like a teenage schoolgirl as Hunter held her left hand in his palm, thanking her for adopting Benjamin and raising him to be such a fine and capable young man.Benjamin felt awkward as he couldn't bear watching his grandmother acting all flustered. It was simply too much for his eyes. He almost di

“Hello, Young Master Benjamin. It's nice to be able to greet you in my projected form.” The male head made of blue light smiled at Benjamin.Benjamin had to take in a deep breath to calm himself. He then steadied his shaking hands as he stared down at this holographic figure. “A….Andy?”“Correct, Young Master Benjamin. It is I, Andy.”While Benjamin was still thinking of what to say, a gentle chuckle Drew his attention to the middle-aged man sitting across from him.John Biggs found the situation funny but he quickly cleared his throat and spoke with a lightly stern voice. “WOC-0054, what did I tell you about being naughty?” The holographic head turned to the CEO of Cortex Tech. “Sir Biggs, you warned me to avoid doing this to you, but you never instructed me to not do this to others.”“Still, look at the state you put your owner in. Apologise to him.” John Biggs frowned deeper.There was a moment of silence from the holographic head before he sighed and turned back to Benjamin.“You

Kendra’s eyes shifted between her son and scared daughter before sighing. “Son, the money we had was never enough for your father's hospital bills. Those loan sharks were never going to borrow our family a single cent more since we hadn't even paid the amount we owed in a long time. So…..I borrowed from Mr. Hay, in exchange for having him hold the house as collateral.”Max felt a weight press on his shoulders, tempting him to just let go of his scared little sister and succumb to the ground.“Mom, why…….why didn't you tell me any of this?”Before Kendra could answer her son, they heard a ruckus near the bungalow entrance. There, everyone found the drunk lanky man trying to force his way past the line of hefty-looking men.“Let me through? I'll fuck you guys up if you don't get out of my way.” The lanky man spoke while wobbling. He was too drunk to even stand properly on his feet.“Uncle Jerry, what are you doing?!” Max grounded out. “Just stay aside! Don't go looking for more trouble!
