Rise of the Student Trillionaire

CHAPTER FIVE: ROAD END.

ur stupid wristwatch. I work my ass off every day to provide for myself; I am not a thief.”

“Then you wouldn’t mind us searching then?” Donald spoke for the first time since this incident started.

This made Tracy extremely worried. If Donald was supporting this claim, it means he might have planted some evidence on William. The Camillo twins were complementary opposites. While Wilson is the brute brawn, Donald is the cunning brain. They definitely came prepared.

Unfortunately, Williams did not know the twins like Tracy did. “Sure, I have nothing to hide.” He knew he didn’t steal anything.

Once it was decided, Donald ordered one of the students he came with to search William's belongings. William's clothes were thoroughly searched, disregarding the pain he felt as his body was still healing. Then they moved on to his school bag, throwing his books and other stuff out carelessly.

“I found it!”

"What?!" William, Andre, and Tracy exclaimed with a shocked expression.

Everyone gathered around to find this was truly Wilson’s two hundred and fifty thousand dollars wristwatch.

“Damn! To think I was actually starting to doubt if he really was the thief!”

“Damn manipulator and thief.”

The crowd had begun throwing insults at William. Meanwhile, Andre looked at his friend in shock.

William saw this. “Andre, you have to believe that I didn’t take it.”

"I believe you," Tracy spoke with confidence before turning to her brothers. “Because I’m sure these two must have planted it on you.”

“Tracy, I don’t care what you say. The evidence speaks for itself.” Donald stood calmly with a smirk as he stared at William. “I think it’s high time we called the police on you. We can’t keep allowing this awful behavior of yours, William. Just because you’re riddled with poverty does not give you the right to steal from others.”

“You can arrest him on your own time.” Wilson smashed his fist against his palm. “My friends and I would like to beat him up first.”

The crowd began to close in on William when Andre shielded him with his body. “Back off, you psychos! You’re not laying a hand on him. I know my friend didn’t steal that watch.”

“Hold this one away!” A pissed Wilson ordered his friends. It took a while before they could pull Andre away from William. Finally, they were about to begin beating William when a security man showed up. 

Fighting was not allowed on school grounds so everyone dashed away from the premises to avoid trouble except for William, Andre, Wilson, and Donald; even Ayra had run away. The four men found Tracy behind the security man and they realized she must have called him over. 

It didn’t take long before William and Wilson found themselves in the Vice Chancellor’s office.

At the VC's office, both parties told their side of the incident, though Wilson lied a lot. During this, William noticed something.

The VC, Roman Brakovic, listened to both parties with different attitudes. The man looked at him with disinterest while he showed more receptivity to Wilson.

“By the way, Wilson, how is your father? It’s been a while since I saw him at the club.”

Wilson smirked as he sat unrestrained in his seat like he was at his friend's house. "Dad is doing great. He wants me to tell you that he will be making his yearly donation to this institution by this week.”

Roman Brakovic’s face lit up. “Perfect!”

Seeing this, a wave of exhaustion washed over Williams. The VC seemed to be good friends with Woodruff Camillo. There was no way the VC would judge this situation fairly.

“William, I have heard a lot of horrible things about you but I looked away from them because of your great academic performance. But it seems you have gone too far this time.” The VC’s voice held no emotion in them. “For the sake of Bel Air University’s reputation, I regret to inform you that you’re hereby expelled from the institution and denied access to all its programs.”

Wilson cheered with a joyful smirk as William folded in his seat, covering his eyes as he began crying profusely.

His life was over.

Somewhere Unknown,

A man walked into an exquisite office. “Sir, I have great news!”

A man seated behind a large desk nodded. “And what is that?”

“We found your daughter and I just learned that she has a son.”

The man finally jerked up in alarm. “Are you absolutely sure?!”
