The next day, Richard sat down at his desk, eager to check his account. He was hoping to catch up on some messages and plan his next steps. However, when he tried to log in, something strange happened. His heart sank as the screen displayed the dreaded error message—“Access Denied.”“What the hell?” Richard muttered under his breath, repeatedly entering his username and password, only to get the same response each time. He couldn’t believe it. His account, the one he had so carefully cultivated under the alias of the “Golden Boy,” was inaccessible.“My account has been hacked!” Richard screamed, his voice a mixture of frustration and panic.His mind raced as he tried to comprehend what had just happened. The account he had used to help others, and in the process, protect his identity, was now in the hands of a complete stranger. Richard couldn’t afford to tell anyone—especially Oliver or Charles. If they found out, his carefully crafted persona would be ruined, and the truth would spil
The unexpected student billionaire Chapter Fifty-Six
Christabel watched in confusion as a group of young men walked toward her and the so-called golden boy. Their confident strides and casual, yet expensive, clothing caught her attention. There were five of them in total, all looking like they belonged to some exclusive club or had money to burn.The golden boy smiled slyly as they approached, and Christabel couldn’t help but feel a slight unease creeping up her spine. He had been nothing but charming since they sat down, but now, with the arrival of his friends, something about the situation felt off."Don't worry, they're just here to keep things casual," the golden boy said, noticing her discomfort. "They're friends of mine, and we're all just here to have a good time."Christabel nodded, trying to shake off her unease, but she couldn’t ignore the gut feeling that had started gnawing at her.The group sat down at the table, and introductions were made. The golden boy casually called them by name, but they didn’t seem particularly frie

As the group of young men approached the table where Christabel and the man claiming to be the golden boy sat, tension filled the air. Christabel watched in confusion as Thomas, the leader of the group, locked eyes with the man sitting across from her."Are you really the golden boy?" Thomas asked, his voice laced with skepticism.The young man, trying to hold his composure but failing to mask his nervousness, hesitated for a moment. He glanced at Christabel, who was oblivious to the brewing storm, and then nodded quickly, attempting to sound confident. "Yes, I am the golden boy. What help can I offer to you?" he said, though his voice quivered slightly.Thomas's face twisted into a smirk as his suspicions were confirmed. He had been tracking the golden boy for weeks, watching him gain attention from the women at Willowbrook University, especially Christabel. Jealousy flared within him, especially since the golden boy had even managed to capture his girlfriend’s attention. He had made

Barry, the young man who had hacked Richard's account, sat hunched on the cold floor, his body trembling with fear. His initial cockiness when he'd taken on the identity of the golden boy had quickly turned to dread. He had thought that once people discovered who he was, they would admire him, maybe even fear him. But instead, all he'd managed to do was anger people, especially Thomas and his gang.He had been hoping for admiration, but now he was facing something far worse than what he could have ever imagined. If he had known that the golden boy had so many enemies—especially Thomas—he would never have dared to expose himself as the infamous "Golden Boy." But now, with his identity exposed, he had no choice but to endure the consequences.The realization struck him like a ton of bricks. The golden boy was not a title of prestige; it was a curse. The gang of young men that had circled around him had no mercy, and they were intent on showing him just how much they despised him.Richard
The unexpected student billionaire Chapter Fifty-Nine
Barry’s decision to refuse medical help was rooted in more than just pride—it was a matter of survival, or at least of maintaining the illusion of being the Golden Boy. He was terrified that going to the hospital would not only expose his injuries but also his ruse. After all, what kind of lavish spender would be unable to pay for a hospital bill? The whole point of his persona was to maintain an image of wealth, one that was fragile and could easily crumble if anyone saw the cracks.The designer clothes he wore—rented for the occasion—had cost him nearly all his savings just to pull off a convincing appearance. The thought of paying an extra f*e for not returning them on time was unbearable. He could barely afford the deposit, and the added charges would push him further into financial ruin. At this point, his carefully crafted image was all he had left.“I’ll be fine, Christabel,” Barry insisted, his voice weak but persistent. “I just need to get to something urgent. I’ll be good. We

Charles and Oliver exchanged glances, both visibly concerned and puzzled by the way Miss Mirabel had singled Richard out for a personal request. The entire class had noticed, and now they were questioning what was really going on between the two of them.Richard could feel the tension rising in the room as whispers spread like wildfire. He had always been close to Miss Mirabel, but the attention it was drawing now made him uncomfortable. He had always respected her for being a good lecturer and a mentor, but this new level of curiosity from his classmates was unexpected."Is everything okay, Richard?" Charles asked, his tone a mix of concern and curiosity. "I mean, it’s not every day a lecturer calls you out like that, especially with an invitation to her place. You sure there’s nothing more to it?"Richard, feeling the weight of their gaze, ran a hand through his hair and sighed. He knew that his usual aloof demeanor wasn’t enough to brush off their suspicions. He could feel their eye

“There’s nothing going on between me and Miss Mirabel,” Richard said, his voice steady, though his mind raced as he met their curious gazes. “I just think she’s always had a way of looking out for me. Now that she needs my help, it only feels right to return the favor.”Charles and Oliver exchanged a glance, skepticism still evident in their eyes. Richard's tone was so calm, his words so confident, that they couldn’t quite read him. He seemed sincere, but they both knew how well Richard could hide his true feelings. Still, the certainty in his eyes made them pause. Perhaps, for once, he wasn’t keeping something from them.The conversation lingered in the air as they shifted back into the rhythm of the day’s classes. Richard, however, felt a sense of quiet unease settle over him. He couldn’t help but wonder about Miss Mirabel’s intentions. What could she possibly want from him? He knew it wasn’t just about the schoolwork—there was always something more to her gestures, but he couldn’t q

“Let's hurry up and go, we don’t have any more time to waste,” Richard said, his voice sharp and purposeful. The urgency in his tone pulled his friends into action. The promise of a day out, however unconventional, was something they all looked forward to, but now, with every passing minute, it seemed like they had to seize the moment or risk letting it slip away.Without hesitation, the group followed Richard, their footsteps quickening as they made their way toward the New Century Eatery. The sleek design of the establishment loomed ahead, a beacon of luxury that none of them had expected to visit, especially not Richard’s friends.As they stepped inside, the security guard greeted them warmly, his professionalism contrasting with the excitement bubbling within Charles and Oliver. "Good day and welcome to the New Century Eatery," he said, his tone courteous yet neutral, as though he greeted VIP guests like this every day. It was clear to all of them that this wasn’t just any restaura

With the Dawn Brotherhood retreating into the mist, Richard, Zara, and Kai caught their breath, their bodies bruised but alive. The giant man stood silently, his massive form looming over them. He was older than Richard had first assumed, his face weathered and his body covered in scars that told stories of countless battles.“Thank you,” Richard said, his voice hoarse from the fight. “You came just in time.”The giant grunted, his gaze scanning the forest, still on alert. “You’re lucky I was nearby. The Dawn Brotherhood is a dangerous group. I wouldn’t trust them if I were you.”“Who are you?” Zara asked, her tone cautious but curious.The giant’s lips curled into a grim smile. “I’m Tian Jun.”Richard’s heart skipped a beat. This was the man they had been searching for—the man who knew the way to the Xan Ling herb.“You’re Tian Jun,” Richard said, his voice filled with awe and respect. “We’ve been looking for you.”Tian Jun nodded slowly. “I know. You’re not the first to come seeking

Zara, ever alert, noticed the subtle change first. “We’re not alone,” she whispered, her voice barely audible. “I’m picking up movement in the trees.”Kai, who had been scanning the surroundings since the beginning of the trek, immediately tensed, his posture shifting. “There’s more than one. They’re trying to get ahead of us.”Richard’s eyes narrowed. More than one? This wasn’t supposed to be an ordinary mission. Other people were seeking the Xan Ling herb, too.It wasn’t long before the sound of footsteps echoed through the mist. The group instinctively moved closer together, Zara and Kai ready to spring into action, while Richard’s hand instinctively rested on the hilt of his blade. They weren’t sure who was out there, but one thing was certain: they had competition.Suddenly, from the thick shadows of the forest, a group of masked figures emerged. They were dressed in dark robes, their faces obscured by hoods, making them appear like phantoms in the mist. They moved with the silen

The journey had been long and arduous, but Richard, Zara, and Kai were close. They had crossed rough terrain, climbed steep hills, and navigated through dense forests. The further they ventured, the more isolated the world became. It was as if the earth itself was conspiring to keep the Xan Ling herb hidden from all but the most determined seekers.After several days of travel, they finally reached the base of the mountains, where Tian Jun’s village was rumored to lie hidden. The village was shrouded in mist, the tall peaks above creating a natural barrier between the outside world and this secretive place. It was as if the mountains themselves were guarding the secret of the Xan Ling herb.But as Richard and his companions approached the foot of the mountains, they began to sense a shift in the air. Something felt off. It wasn’t just the looming presence of the mountains or the thickening fog; it was the feeling of being watched.Zara, ever alert, noticed the subtle change first. “We

As the night wore on, Richard, Zara, and Kai had successfully followed Dorian Vargas without him suspecting. The man’s movements were sharp and deliberate, his confidence betraying a keen awareness of his surroundings, but despite his careful nature, Richard knew he had to stay on his tail. The only way to get the information they needed about the elusive Xan Ling herb was to follow the trail—no matter how winding it might be.For the better part of an hour, the trio shadowed Vargas through the crowded city streets, ducking into alleys and weaving through the maze of people without attracting attention. Zara, who was no stranger to covert operations, kept her distance, keeping a watchful eye on the path ahead while Kai moved with effortless stealth, ensuring that no one was too close. Richard was focused on Vargas, his gaze locked on the back of the man who had been the key to unraveling the mystery of the Xan Ling herb.Vargas eventually made his way out of the busy district, enterin

The evening air was thick with the promise of danger as Richard, Zara, and Kai arrived at the venue—a large, opulent building located on the outskirts of the city. The walls were adorned with intricate carvings, and the scent of expensive perfumes mingled with the rich aroma of fine foods. Inside, the atmosphere was one of hushed excitement and quiet tension.Men and women dressed in the finest silks and tailored suits, their expressions guarded, moved through the halls in small groups. The room was alive with the clinking of glasses, the murmurs of whispered conversations, and the occasional loud burst of laughter.

One day, after weeks of rigorous training, Richard found himself back in the sparring room with Kaal’s assistant. This time, something was different. As he squared off with his opponent, he took a deep breath and focused. For the first time, he wasn’t relying solely on his speed or strength. He had learned to read his opponent’s body language, to anticipate movements before they happened. He wasn’t fighting against the assistant—he was fighting with him, learning his rhythm, his strategy.The fight was brutal. Richard’s muscles screamed for rest, his body aching from the endless sparring sessions. But this time, things were different. As Richard ducked beneath a punch and countered with a precise strike to the assistant’s ribs, he felt something shift inside of him. For the first time, he was truly in control of the fight. He wasn’t acting out of anger or frustration—he was calm, focused, and in sync with the flow of the battle.When the assistant finally went down, it was with a surp

The following day, after another grueling set of classes, Richard received a call from Mr. James. The voice on the other end was calm, yet filled with a certain urgency. “Richard, I need you to meet me after school. There’s something important we need to discuss.”Richard, still processing the chaotic events of the past few days, agreed. He didn’t know what to expect, but something told him that whatever Mr. James had planned, it was going to be another step deeper into the world he was trying to navigate—a world that had been anything but ordinary.After school, Richard met Mr. James at the designated spot, a small café tucked away in a quiet corner of the city. Mr. James looked as composed as always, his usual calm demeanor unwavering. After a brief greeting, they walked together, moving through the busy streets until they reached an unassuming house. It didn’t look like much from the outside—an old, two-story house with peeling paint and a small yard. But Richard had learned long a

The situation had escalated beyond anything Richard could have predicted. Margaret had been taken away by the guards, Thomas, too, was nowhere to be found, and it seemed as though the Hamilton Enterprises building was becoming more of a fortress with every passing minute. Desperation settled in Richard's chest. He had to do something—he couldn’t just stand by and watch them take everyone he cared about. The guards were getting more aggressive, and the protestors outside were beginning to panic, unsure of what was going on inside the building.Richard’s mind raced. The more he thought about it, the more he realized that the time for patience was over. There were people inside—his friends, the ones who had been wronged—and he couldn’t let them suffer anymore. The building that once felt like a symbol of the Hamiltons’ strength now felt like a cage, and Richard had no choice but to act.Richard moved toward the entrance, his eyes scanning the surroundings, looking for any sign of weaknes
