2024-10-29 19:42:56“Grandma, don't!”
Everyone at the school's main gate, including Alexa and Andrew, were shocked at the voice, and they looked up to find Benjamin rushing over. “Benjy?” The old woman felt a wave of relief wash through her at the sight of her grandson. “Oh, my Benjy!” “Grandma, are you alright?!” Benjamin gently held up his grandmother's body. He then shifted an angry gaze up at Andrew. “You're a piece of trash, you know that? How dare you ask my grandmother to kneel before you?! Even if you hated me so much, you should at least give some respect for her age!” Andrew scoffed. “Her age? Why the heck should I show her any care? She's not my grandmother.” He then suddenly covered his nose. “Ugh! Now that both the boy and his grandmother are together, I can really smell the stench of wretchedness.” Alexa giggled as she lightly punched her nose. “Unfortunately, I can smell it as well.” Benjamin was furious as he gently moved his grandmother backwards, away from the two. “Grandma, give me a second.” The old woman stared at her grandson with wide eyes. “Benjy, what are you going to do? Don't go looking for trouble.” Benjamin smiled at his grandmother. “I'm not. I'm simply teaching a foul-mouthed guy to watch his words.” The cocky smile on Andrew's face faded as he saw Benjamin slowly walking closer to him. “Hey! What the hell do you think you're doing?! Stay right there, or else, I won't hesitate to turn your suspension into an expulsion.” “Then go on! Do it right now,” Benjamin sneered, feeling really good that he could finally give this retort.He knew clearly why Andrew was so confident. It was all because of his wealthy father.
But now, things had changed. He'd give him a taste of his own medicine.
“Do you think your threat matters to me? Then you're a bigger fool than I've always assumed.”
“What?” Andrew was lost for words, and he didn't know how to feel. This was the first time Benjamin would throw such a threat right back in his face. It honestly left him shocked. Alexa was also stunned into silence. This suddenly didn't seem like the cowardice Benjamin that she knew.“Benjy, stop.” Benjamin's grandmother suddenly called out as she grabbed his hand. “Your situation is already not good. You shouldn't be caught in a fight.”
“ Don't worry about this, grandma, okay? I can deal with it.” Benjamin patted his grandmother on the back. “Benjamin!” Everyone turned to find Benjamin's best friend, Max, rushing over. He had been hiding near the school’s main gates, keeping an eye on the situation until Benjamin got here. “Buddy, you should calm down first, okay?” Max held Benjamin's shoulders. “Listen to your grandma.” The old woman pulled at Benjamin's wrist. “Benjy, please, let's leave before we make a scene, okay?” “Hey! Where do you think you're going?!” Andrew yelled out with a commanding tone and a smug look on his face as he saw that the grandmother and Max were scared of him. “You dare to walk away when you haven't even made amends for your rude behaviour. I want a proper apology, then you also need to pay up for the medical bills, or have you forgotten how you physically assaulted me?” He was definitely not about to let Benjamin off so easily. Benjamin gritted his teeth at this, not believing that Andrew would suddenly mention this shamelessly. What about the more brutal assault he was dealt by Andrew and his bodyguards? Without saying a word to her grandson, Benjamin’s grandmother suddenly rushed forward with her purse wide open, approaching Andrew. “Please, let me reimburse your medical bills with all I have. I hope you don't report this.” Benjamin went to stop his grandmother when he saw her pouring out all her money. “Grandma!” The old woman ignored him, giving all her money to Andrew. “Mister, this is all I have. Please, I hope you will let this matter….” “Are you kidding me?” Andrew's cold voice cut the old woman off. “Is this a freakin $400 you just put in my hands?! You want to humiliate me with this？！” With a yell, he threw the money at the old woman's face, watching her fall to the ground from his outburst.Everyone watched as Andrew then spat on her.
“You bastard!”Benjamin snarled, grabbing Andrew in the collar and pushing him against the gate.
“Andrew Knox, get away from him right now!”Hearing that familiar voice, Benjamin sneered ironically. It was that "responsible" director again. He sure had a knack for showing up at just the right time!

“Benjamin, have you lost your mind?!” The director rushed over. “Are you really trying to kill Mr. Tyrone?!” Benjamin loosened his hand and turned around, looking at the director in the eye, finally giving Max the chance to escape. At this point, there was now a crowd watching the scene. The whole situation was unfolding at the main gate after all. There was no way it wouldn't attract a large audience. “Oh my goodness!” Alexa exclaimed as approached Andrew. She had actually called the director earlier in case this idiot Benjamin would do anything crazy. Turned out she was right.“Oh, baby, you look a mess.” She then glared at Benjamin before turning a pitiful expression in the director's way. “Sir, thank the great goodness that you came on time! You saw it yourself! This madman was about to start another fight!”“Sir” Andrew didn't waste time taking full advantage of this situation. “He suddenly came after me, assaulting me for no reason. "It must be because he had been suspend

It was safe to say that the director, Andrew, Alexa, Max, and Benjamin's grandmother weren't the only ones shocked by Benjamin's claim.The crowd that had been watching the commotion ever since Benjamin had punched Andrew in the face. They burst into heavy bouts of laughter as soon as they heard those words as well.“Wait! Is he for real? I know that guy. He's so freaking poor, and now he's suddenly claiming that he can pay ten times the annual donation this school gets from the Tyrone family.”“Oh my goodness, this guy must have lost his mind. He's definitely gone crazy. The Tyrone family donates $1 million annually, which means that guy would have to be able to pay $10 million at once. Isn't that too pretentious?!”Another student quickly pulled out her phone. “Oh, I will be damned if I don't live stream this for my fans! They're gonna eat this up.”The crowd was bustling at this point, wanting to see how Benjamin would dig himself out of this ‘grave’ he created for himself.Benjami

Benjamin was shocked when he saw this. How is this possible? His grandfather had personally handed this black card to him, promising that it held up to $3 billion, so what was going on? Why was the payment declined? Did Hunter Whiteridge lie to him? Benjamin immediately threw that thought out of his head. There was absolutely no way a man like that would lie to him about money of all things. First of all, the man is a Trillionaire, so it would be a very shameful act on his part to fool his newly found grandson, something that had been proven with a DNA test to confirm it. Also, the payment had been declined rather than the black details being incorrect. This means that the black card is indeed legit. There was also no mention of ‘insufficient balance’, so the issue had to be something else. Unfortunately, the audiences watching this weren't interested in thinking this through.As soon as the director saw the confusion on Benjamin's face, he snatched the phone from his hands to get a

Director James Thorpe felt his heart racing furiously as he stared down at the content on his phone screen. He kept reading it over and over again, ignoring the surrounding noises. “Could it really be him?” He felt stupid for even asking this question, as Benjamin's name was evident on the generated receipt. None of this made any sense to him. This same young man had been called out for being extremely poor yesterday, so why does he suddenly have a black card under his name?Director Thorpe turned to find Benjamin staring at him with a victorious but annoying smirk, and he felt his blood boil. “Here! Give me that card. I want to see something.”Benjamin realised what must have happened, so he gladly gave the director his black card.Once Andrew, Alexa, Max, and Mrs. Knox saw this, they felt something had changed. It was even more obvious in the director's body language that something had happened.Director Thorpe compared the card details with the ones on the receipt. “They match.” He

The crowd was silent for a moment as they kept their shocked gaze on the scene. Some of them couldn't believe they had actually seen this with their own two eyes, while some were even starting to doubt if they were in a dream or not. The wave of internal reaction this one exchange between the director and the principal had caused in everyone was contrary to the dead silence on the outside.“Holy shit, what did I just witness happen. Could this be real?”“Bro, I'm thinking the same thing. The principal really slapped the director right I'm the face. Lord! I really hope someone captured it, or else, I'll be really forced to believe it was all in my head.”“Look around you then.”The students in the crowd having this whispered exchange glanced around to find that there were quite a few other students who still had their cameras out, recording everything. Meanwhile, Benjamin was also surprised at the slap he had witnessed the principal give the director. Why did this much older man sud
Benjamin Knox's Rise to Riches Chapter 13
Andrew had boldly pointed out Benjamin, framing him as the main culprit of this current situation while belittling him as well in front of the principal because he was confident that the principal would treat him with more respect, considering his background. Unfortunately for him, the principal was well aware of the Tyrone family and how powerful they are, including the amount they've been donating annually for about half a decade now. Yet, he knew none of those things could stand a significance when compared to the family Benjamin allegedly belongs to. The fact that Benjamin alone donated an amount one time, and it was more than the combined amount that the Tyrone family had ever donated was telling of the disparity between the two families. Not to mention that the influence that The Whiteridge family has in this university was far more than The Tyrone family could ever possess. This was why the principal had no problem putting Andrew in his place.“You're from the Tyrone family,

For a second, Andrew had actually forgotten the deal he had publicly made with Benjamin. If Benjamin failed to make the $10 million transaction successful, he would have to strip completely naked and run around the entire campus while giving consent to any student recording him on their devices and even uploading it on any and all social media platforms. If the opposite happened though, and Benjamin's transaction was successful, then it would be Andrew Tyrone who would have to strip naked while running around campus.The crowd became really excited at the turn of the event.“Damn! I totally forgot the punishment part ever since the principal showed up.”“Me too! Oh my goodness, are we really about to watch the great son of the Tyrone family strip naked in front of us?!”“Dude, not even a poor and unpopular guy would dare feel good about such a thing. I can only imagine how humiliated Andrew feels right now.”“Hey, guys! Look! The number of live viewers is suddenly surging!”“Fuck! M

“Hey, Ben, come see this!” Max rushed closer to his best friend. He had pulled out his phone and had begun watching the Livestream. “Look at this!” He then showed Benjamin the social media trend. “The hashtag ‘naked student-run’ is already trending on all platforms. The shares and overall widespread attention are insane!”Seeing this, Benjamin finally felt a sense of satisfaction. He was glad to see Andrew receiving a punishment that matched his misbehaviors.“Benjy.” Hearing his grandmother's voice, Benjamin rushed over to her and hugged her. “Are you okay, Grandma?”Theresa Knox smiled weakly at her grandson before nodding her head. “Don't worry about me, my dear. I'm fine.”It was then that Benjamin recalled the main reason his grandmother had come to the university. “Sir.” He turned to face the principal. “I was suspended unjustly by Director Thorpe earlier. I would really like for you to revoke my suspension. If you need to look into the matter first, then I can wait.” Theresa

“Woah! Chill, buddy!” Benjamin chuckled at the AI assistant. “I definitely think Dr. Felicia is quite hot but I'm pretty sure there's no feelings behind it.”“Oh.” Andy kept his holographic gaze on Benjamin for a few seconds in silence. “So you must be horny. That makes sense for a dashing young man like you.”Benjamin fought the urge to slam his palm on his face. “You don't seem to have a filter, do you?”Andy chuckled. “I don't think I've said anything I shouldn't have.”Benjamin saw the expression on the holographic face. Andy was purposely being cheeky. It was still a wonder how an AI program could possess such a level of consciousness. The more time Benjamin spends with WOC-0054, the more he finds himself intrigued.In fact, it was easy for people to forget that Andy is a program and not a real person.Andy soon picked out the best outfit and accessories for his young master, and Benjamin was satisfied as he checked himself out in the full length mirrors.

Dr. Felicia had also turned on her professional mode. “The mother, Kendra Detroit, regained consciousness first as she was simply exhausted and dealing with severe malnutrition. She should be fine after a month of careful diet planning.”Benjamin got off his huge bed, walking to the floor-to-ceiling glass window as he listened to the doctor. “And?” He urged her to continue.“The little girl woke up a couple of hours ago. Her situation was a bit more severe. She's currently dealing with PTSD and I've tasked her to a specialist. Also, it helps a lot that her mother is there with her.”Benjamin felt a bit relieved to hear this. “Dr. Felicia, what about Max?”“He remains unconscious for now, Mr. Knox.” Dr. Felicia’s tone when addressing Max made it clear that she was aware that he was the most important member of the Detroit family to Benjamin.“Don't worry though; it's great news. Your friend is healing up pretty fast. It might take a few more hours before he regains consciousness.”B

Brody had just witnessed the death of his two henchmen. He had been through many highs and lows with them and would have never thought that they would end up this way.Alas, Brody had no time to mourn the dead, especially when his life was currently on the line.“I'll tell the truth! Senior Jude, I'll tell the truth! Please, don't kill me!”Brody was now lying with his chest on the ground.Jude sneered as he placed the sole of his leather shoe on Brody's head. “Start talking, bastard.”The next few minutes went by slowly as Jude listened to Brody's narration of how he was humiliated in front of that high-end restaurant by Benjamin while he was trying to collect what Max owed him. He then framed Benjamin as a spy for the big boss so he could destroy the young man with the greater power.Jude was quiet for a while as he remained seated with his leg placed over Brody's head. “You absolute piece of shit!”Jude began laughing loudly, though the self-mocking tone was evident. “I can't fuck

Though it might seem pathetic to outsiders to see such a powerful gang member with hundreds of subordinates, practically waging war against a university student, Benjamin was far from an ordinary student in Jude's eyes.Jude recalled the incredibly calm demeanor Benjamin had walked into the rusty house back at the slums. Honest, Jude wouldn't stop berating himself for not realizing that Benjamin wasn't just fronting that night. That young man was truly confident that he could get his best friend and the family out safely, and he did just that in the end.It stung Jude even more at the fact that he doesn't even have estimated statistics on the number of subordinates Benjamin has in his arsenal. Since this senior district keeper isn't aware of the actual truth, he still believes that those hidden shooters on Benjamin's side must have been experts sent by the neighboring rival - the Feudal Gang - to aid the spy.Well…..The lie is about to be exposed, though.As the underground hall was

He didn't feel the need to keep battling with Andrew on this issue.The current issue for Benjamin is the armed men Andrew sent after him.

Despite the terrible condition Benjamin had left him in, Andrew was still in the mood to have sex, particularly to assert his claim over Alexa. After catching his girlfriend staring at Benjamin as if she wanted to devour him, followed by the brutal beating that Benjamin had served him in front of the class, Andrew needed to regain some sort of power, and he could only currently do that with Alexa.“Fuck! Ah! Baby, please, take it easy!” Alexa was moaning into the sheets as she Andrew's unforgiving pounding. Andrew grinned as he stared down at his girlfriend. “Call my name, bitch!”Alexa could barely catch her breath as Andrew kept thrusting his pole into her. “Ooh! Andrew, please, you're driving me crazy! Let's take a break!”That break never came until after an hour.

The last thing the old woman needed right now was to find out that her dear grandson was attacked at gunpoint on his way back from school. Benjamin had witnessed Theresa endure so much turmoil for over two decades just for his sake. And that doesn't even include the horrible things she faced before adopting Benjamin.Right now, Benjamin was determined to keep his godly grandmother away from anything that would make her sad.

Head Butler Lia noticed the pissed-off look on her young master's face, and she quickly took a mental step back, softening her voice with a slight bow of her head.“Apologies, Young Master Benjamin. I had no idea that it was you who chose to eat at such a place.”Benjamin reigned in his reaction as well. “I want you three to come up with me to my study. We have some things to discuss.” Head Butler Lia exchanged a glance with the male soldier who had just arrived with Anthony. It was obvious that the young master was starting to attach a level of importance to this lowly driver. Once Benjamin and the other three arrived inside his private study, they settled down.Anthony had to remain on his feet as there were only two other seats on the other side of Benjamin’s desk, both of which had been occupied by the head butler and the male soldier.Benjamin pretended as if he didn't notice this. “First of all, Head Butler Lia, has there been any reply from the estate's head of security?”Ben

The Bugatti Sports car soon arrived at Sunspot Estate, and just like before, the security guards gave them no trouble at all. Anthony and Benjamin couldn't help but exchange a smile at the vast difference in the kind of treatment they receive now and what they dealt with on their first entry.As they approached the largest residence in Sunspot Estate, Benjamin found the rest of the thirty soldiers now stationed in various parts of the residence boundary, doing their job to secure the place. Benjamin was content with this. Anthony craned his neck slightly as he saw something by the gate. “Young Master, those two soldiers you from this morning are still serving their punishment.”“As they should.” Benjamin was confident that they wouldn't dare disobey his order as the young master and their assigned boss.The gates were immediately opened and the car went straight in. By the time Anthony opened the door for Benjamin to step out, they found three soldiers, led by a man, standing at att
