The Student Billionaire Chapter 26
Damson stood in front of the Red Diamond Club, the smell of smoke and alcohol hung heavy in the air. He looked around to see that the car park was empty but it looked like people were inside the club. He took a deep breath in, fumbling with the emergency watch Luis gave him and approached the bouncers that stood by the entrance. The bouncers, two large men with imposing faces, stared down at Damson, a look of curiosity on their faces. "Why are you here?" One of the bouncers with a bald head asked Damson, folding his arms. "I'm here for a drink." Damson replied, licking his lips. The bouncers looked at each other and laughed. "A drink?" The other bouncer asked, his voice dripping with disdain. "Who did you come with?"Damson hesitated, he knew he couldn't give the real reason for his visit. "I came with…uh…no one." He said, trying to sound confident. The bouncers looked at each other again. "First time here, huh?" The bald headed one asked, his eyes narrowing. Damson nodded, try

"You need to keep your head in the game Damson!" The coach yelled as he blew his whistle, making Damson shake his head as he tried to focus on the game. He has been struggling to take his mind off the CCTV footage he watched in the club three days ago. He was shocked, surprised and disturbed to see Kate on the footage. He wasn't expecting it. The coach blew his whistle again, snapping Damson back to reality. He shook his head, again, trying to clear his thoughts. He needed to focus on the game, but his mind was elsewhere. His face scrunched up as he thought back to the event. Kate had lured him into the hotel, but she wasn't there when he was attacked and his card got taken away from him. She had also visited him when he was in the hospital, showing that she cared. He had suspected Caleb for a long time, thinking he was in possession of the card but decided to not use it. Now he wasn't so sure. He saw Kate enter and leave the club a number of times, now he was confused. "Who is s

Damson looked at the coach and wanted to explain that all the claims against him weren't true, but he decided not to. He wasn't ready to argue with Caleb who was still glaring at him. It was him against the rest of the team and Damson knew he wouldn't come out on top. Instead, he picked up his bag and made his way out of the room and back to his dorm.As he walked out of the locker room, he could feel the eyes of his teammates on him, judging and condemning him. He knew he hadn't done anything wrong to not deserve to be the captain of the team, but he also knew trying to defend himself now would be pointless. Caleb had probably poisoned the minds of most of the boys and Damson was outnumbered. He got to his dorm and went to the bathroom to take a cold shower. He had wanted to be the captain for a very long time. He worked hard for it, showed up for every practice and never missed any days but because of his slip up today, he wasn't able to defend himself and it was all because of

"Who are you? What's your business here?" The boy asked, sneering at Damson."Well, we're in the public and since you decided to do this where everyone can see you, I don't see why it isn't my business." Damson said with a straight face."The lady said she's not interested and it is expected of you to let her go. You don't understand what 'No' means? Don't you know how to act like a gentleman?"The boy's face turned red with anger. "How dare you? This is between me and her. You think you're some kind of hero, don't you? Coming to the rescue of a damsel in distress? Well, let me tell you something, dude. She's not worth it.""I'm not doing it for her, I'm doing it for you. You're clearly not used to hearing the word 'No', and someone needs to teach you some manners." Damon said, calmly."See this fool acting like he's clever. You're not as clever as you think you are and you're not as tough as you think you are." The boy said, smiling smugly. "I don't need to be tough. I just need to

Damson's eyes widened as he took a step back, as he remembered who Maria was. She was the lady who saved his life. He remembered Luis showing him her picture, telling him how she had found him bleeding in the hotel room and called for help. If not for her, he would have never made it out alive. He was surprised to see her standing in front of him. "Do you remember me now, young master?" She asked again, smiling."Yes, yes I do." Damson replied, scratching his head. "What are you doing here? What happened to you? I thought you'd be…somewhere else…doing something." He was surprised to see her working as a cleaner in a bar after the money he told Luis to give her as a reward for saving him. "It's a long story and we can't talk here." She said softly, glancing around. "If you don't mind, can I quickly grab my things so we can go somewhere else to talk? Standing here and talking won't be convenient and I'll also not rather discuss it here." Damson nodded understandably. "Of course, Tak

"Live with you? I don't understand." Maria said, looking confused. "Not that way…I didn't mean you'd move in with me…I live there…but I don't stay there often. I mostly stay at the dorm." Damson replied, chuckling."I know you're in a tough spot without a place to stay, so I'm offering you a solution. You can stay at my apartment for free, for as long as you need.""I was lucky enough to win a small apartment in a lottery, but I don't spend much time there. It seems like a waste to let it sit empty. So I thought I'd offer it to you. You're welcome to stay there instead of sleeping at your workplace everyday."Maria's voice trembled as she asked. "Do you mean it?" Tears came to her eyes as she tried to stop them. "Thank you so much! I'm so thankful."Damson nodded. "It's no trouble at all, you're welcome. Just give me a few minutes and I'll call Luis to drive us there. You can use the next few minutes to pack up your remaining stuff while I make the call." "It's great to see you aga

"I think you've said enough." Damson said angrily, pointing at Linda. "I will not sit and watch you talk to me that way. I don't even know you and the only reason I'm talking to you right now is because you're Aria's friend and I've not forgotten how you treated me the last time.""You don't deserve to mention her name." Linda said angrily, standing up. Everyone in the cafeteria was already gathering around, they didn't understand why Linda was having an argument with Damson. "We all know how you used Aria for your own selfish gain. I am doing a favor by letting Maria know the type of person you are. You're nothing but a cheat, a liar and a thief.""I think you've got the wrong person." Maria said, defending Damson. "You need to stop shouting and calm down."Linda moved closer to Maria to give her a piece of her mind when she noticed Maria's outfit. She was dressed in a uniform. The uniform she wears to clean at the bar. The plan was to go to her place of work after sightseeing with
The Student Billionaire Chapter 33
Damson couldn't bring himself to Maria who he truly is, so he avoided her. He didn't go back to the apartment after what had happened in the cafeteria. He told Luis to lie to Maria that he had to stay in his dorm because he had some projects to do in school. He had been staying in his parent's house, moping around and doing nothing. He just wanted to avoid Maria, so he wouldn't have to explain himself.Luis knocked, bringing him out of his thoughts. "I hope you've not forgotten about your high school reunion. It holds today. Have you made up your mind to attend it?""Yeah, I'll go." Damson replied, sitting up. "It can't be that bad. I'll pick it over sitting at home and moping around all day.""What about your outfit? Have you figured out what you want to wear?" Luis asked as he stood in front of Damson, waiting for his orders. "I'll just wear one of my dad's tuxedos. He has some really nice ones and they're just sitting there.""I'm not sure they'll fit. Your father was quite huge,

“I worked all my life for your father,” Luis began, his voice filled with bitterness. “Tirelessly helped him build Stellarcorp from the ground up. And when the company became big, he still used me like a fool.”“I didn’t mind at first,” he continued. “I treated Stellarcorp like it was mine too. Gave it everything. But then, out of nowhere, he decides to look for his long-lost son, to give you the company.”Luis scoffed.“He didn’t even ask me what I thought. Didn’t care. Just ordered me to find you and hand it all over. To make it worse, he told me to watch over you while you ran the company. Can you imagine that? Me, the man who brought Stellarcorp to fame, reduced to your babysitter.”“The company should have been mine, not yours. Your father’s lucky he died when he did, helping you escape. It was supposed to be you six feet under, not him. But you were just lucky that day. My men did a sloppy job.”Suddenly, a voice rang out.“Enough of your talk, just kill this bastard already!”

“Am I in a moving car? I’m definitely in one.” Damson thought to himself as he opened his eyes groggily. He tried to sit up and realized he was in the trunk of a car. He banged on it several times, trying to get it open, but it wouldn’t budge. He began to sweat, helpless and disoriented, forced to wait until someone decided to open it.“Who did this to me? What happened?”“Why can’t I remember being put in the trunk?” Is Maria okay? Was she also shoved into another car?”So many questions ran through Damson’s head. He was confused. His head felt heavy, too big to carry.He eventually laid back down and decided to wait until the car stopped. After about twenty minutes of pure torture, the car finally came to a halt. Damson let out a small sigh of relief. He heard muffled voices outside, and then suddenly, the trunk flung open.He blinked against the light and tried to sit up, but his body failed him. He couldn’t move. No matter how hard he tried, only his head responded. “What the he

Damson couldn’t leave the Wilsons just like that after finding out what Mr. Wilson had done for him. The man saved his life, and the least Damson could do was help the family with the funeral preparations. He paid for all the expenses and also gave them a large sum of money to sustain them for a long time. He even advised Logan to invest wisely.He had wanted to stay longer, but Logan asked him not to. His mother and sister would only feel more pain with him around. His presence would be a constant reminder of what happened to their father, and they didn’t need that. Damson understood and didn’t push further so he left.At first, he decided to head to his apartment, but then he changed his mind and went to the dorm instead. He hadn’t been there in a while, and he wanted to see his friends, Luke and Fred. They had reached out to him several times, asking where he was and why he hadn’t been around. At the time, he couldn’t tell them he was married, so he just told them he had gone job

Maria sat in the car, fiddling with her fingers, random thoughts flying through her mind as she stared out the window. Kate was seated beside her, and two other men were in the car with them.She didn’t fully understand what she was doing or what she had just agreed to but one thing was clear, she couldn’t die because of someone else.Damson would do the same, right? Maria wondered, now biting her nails.He’d choose survival too, even if it meant putting me in danger… right? Anyone would… right? She was disturbed.“But Damson betrayed me too. He treated me like a fool, lied to me, and deceived me. I thought that we were close, that our bond was real.”“Had he been acting all along?”“How is he even the president of StellarCorp? When did that happen?”“He was the poorest student in school. So how? It doesn’t make sense.” Maria’s thoughts raced, growing angrier by the second.“I could’ve gotten more opportunities. I could’ve had a good job in his company. I was close to him! But he de

“What! No, no, please don’t kill me. Please don’t,” Maria cried, scared for her life. Today has been a rollercoaster of emotions. She was scared, disturbed, and deeply worried and she couldn’t help but be angry at Damson for dragging her into his mess.She was in this situation because of him.“Caleb and the boss want Damson dead, and now, because of him, I’m going to die too.” She thought to herself. “Where’s Kate?” the boss asked, ignoring Maria’s cries.“Since the last time she almost got caught by Damson, Kate had been lying low.” One of the men replied. “Tell her to come here right now. She has someone to get rid of.”“Is that really the next thing you’re supposed to do? I don’t care what you do with Maria, but can it wait till we finish off Damson? Why are you wasting time killing people you’re not supposed to!?” Caleb asked the boss, frustrated.“It’s your fault this is happening!” the boss snapped. “I told you nobody was supposed to know that Damson is the president of Stel
Chapter 253
Caleb ran his hand through his hair angrily. His body trembled, and all he wanted to do was find Damson and end his life. He wasn’t interested in whatever plan the boss had to offer. He just wanted to carry out his own.His life had taken a dip after his father lost his company and couldn’t get help from anyone. He had called all his father’s friends and visited different companies for assistance, but everyone gave him the same answer, they couldn’t help. He was devastated. His father became ill, and they had to sell their cars and properties just to afford treatment.Caleb was left with nothing. He was broke and had to struggle to get by every day. Because of that, he hardly showed up at school. Everyone had known him as one of the richest boys in the university, but now, everything was gone. He had nothing.To avoid questions and rumors, he stayed away from school and wandered around. He spent most of his days at clubs, stealing from people and drinking. It was during one of those

Maria blinked hard, hoping she was seeing the wrong person but she wasn’t. She didn’t want to believe who stood in front of her.“Long time no see, Maria,” Caleb said, smiling sheepishly. “Did you miss me?”“Caleb… what…what is going on? Why are you here? Why am I here? Who are these people?” Maria stuttered, struggling to pull herself together. She didn’t want to believe Caleb had anything to do with her being kidnapped.“I asked you a question, but you’re throwing more at me in return.” Caleb said, his smile fading. “Courtesy demands you greet someone when you’re seeing them for the first time in a long while. Or have I become just ‘anyone’ to you now? Have you forgotten me so easily, huh? I made you a university student and suddenly you’ve grown proud?”“Cut it out, Caleb, and answer me!” Maria snapped, cutting him off. “What the hell am I doing here!? If this is one of your silly pranks, you better stop it now. I don’t have time for this! I’m not interested in whatever this is, s

Maria paced back and forth, staring at her phone. She had spent the last few days thinking about the argument she had with Damson. She hadn’t tried to reach out to him since they last spoke, and he hadn’t reached out to her either. She was angry about that, but she had more to think about than just her anger.Damson and Viktor had acted really suspicious on the day she last spoke to Damson, and she was dying to know what was going on. “What emergency could Viktor have been talking about that made Damson react that way? What exactly went wrong?” she wondered to herself.She had had her suspicions about Damson before that day, but the way he acted even when he was injured made her realize something was definitely going on.She decided to find out for herself, so she packed her bags and left for Damson’s apartment. She wanted answers. She needed to know what was going on — and most importantly, the truth about his relationship with Luis, who represented Stellarcorp at the charity organi

"Leo was the reason why my father had a stroke and had to be using a wheelchair. These past few months before you came have been brutal. Leo came with his friends to raid our house. It was just very sad that I was out clubbing on that very day. I should have been around to teach that bastard a very big lesson he would never forget." Logan said angrily. "I've been looking everywhere for Leo but I just can't find him." Damson replied. "If not that I have more pressing issues at hand, I'd do everything I can to fish him out from his hiding place." "I don't think you can find him just like that. Also, I think Leo also has something to do with the strange men my dad has been seeing. I don't know if it's true but that's what I just think.""That's the only reason why my dad would still be in contact with him after everything he had done. I can't even start mentioning everything that the bastard has done to our family and to be honest, I just want him dead!" "Can we just put Leo aside fo
