The unexpected student billionaire Chapter Seventy-Eight
Mr. Spencer watched in disbelief as Richard and Mr. James walked out of his office, the heavy atmosphere of tension lifting with each step they took. It felt as though his world had shifted in an instant. The young man he had planned to expel—someone he had written off as just another rebellious student—was now walking away unscathed, while he, the vice chancellor, was left with nothing but a bruised ego and a shaken confidence. The silence in the office was deafening."Mr. Wade," Spencer said in a voice that was barely above a whisper, his anger simmering beneath the surface. "What just happened?"Mr. Wade, still trying to process the situation, stood frozen for a moment. "I... I don’t know, sir. I never expected Mr. James to be involved. I thought we had this all figured out.""You thought wrong," Spencer snapped. His eyes narrowed. "How could you let this happen? Richard Morgan just outmaneuvered both of us, and now we're left looking like fools!"Mr. Wade shifted uncomfortably unde

Mr. Spencer, still recovering from the shocking revelation of Richard’s true identity, fixed his gaze on the young man who had just flipped the entire situation on its head. His initial disbelief and surprise were quickly replaced by a rising sense of urgency as he realized just how precarious his position had become. He had always thought of Richard as just another ordinary student, but now, the truth had been laid bare. Richard was not only the rightful owner of 70% of the shares at Willowbrook University, but he also had the ear of someone as powerful as Mr. James. This shift in power left Mr. Spencer reeling, trying to regain control of the conversation.Mr. Spencer’s voice faltered as he tried to maintain his composure. "So... you're telling me that Richard is the true owner of these shares... not James? That changes everything." He turned to Mr. Wade, who was equally stunned, and they shared a silent moment of realization. They had both underestimated Richard."Yes, Mr. Spencer,"

The classroom fell into a stunned silence. The revelation hung in the air like a thick fog, leaving everyone trying to process what they had just heard. Richard, who had long been the target of their scorn, stood there quietly, watching as Thomas, once so full of pride and confidence, now stood before them, confessing his guilt.The classmates were in shock, their eyes wide with disbelief. Thomas had always been a model student—outspoken, popular, and admired by many. But now, all of that was tainted. His confession shattered the trust they had placed in him.Richard remained calm, not a hint of smugness or satisfaction on his face. He had seen this coming, but still, it was hard to watch the truth unfold in front of his peers. His gaze shifted to Stella, who had been one of the loudest voices in demanding his expulsion. Her face was pale, her lips trembling as she processed the situation. It was clear she hadn’t expected things to unfold this way. The same went for the rest of the cla

The class fell into an unsettling silence, the weight of Thomas’s confession hanging heavily in the air. No one could quite comprehend the magnitude of what had just been revealed—Thomas, the boy from a wealthy family, the one who was always seen as above reproach, had been the thief all along.Richard, who had always been on the receiving end of mockery and suspicion, now stood there, vindicated. The realization hit hard for everyone. Thomas, the one who had been pointing fingers at Richard, had played everyone for fools.As the silence stretched, Richard spoke, his voice steady but laced with a quiet anger. “So, it’s clear to all of you now. I was falsely accused. Thomas, here, was the one who tried to implicate me while all of you stood by and believed it without question.” He let the words sink in. “You all supported him, and when he accused me of stealing, you didn’t hesitate to believe him. But now that the truth has come out, you are left with nothing but shame.”Richard’s words

“All of you have to apologize to Richard in this instance for actually supporting Thomas and making a mockery of Richard,” Mr. Spencer’s voice echoed through the classroom, firm and unwavering.The weight of his words sank deep into the hearts of the students. Their heads dropped slightly, unwilling to meet Richard’s eyes, but no one dared to speak out. The truth was hard to ignore now. They had sided with Thomas without a second thought, blindly believing in his accusations. Richard, on the other hand, had been wronged—and no apology, no matter how sincere, would erase the damage that had been done.Yet, despite the mounting tension, many of them still felt conflicted. They weren’t comfortable with Richard's decision to punish Dominic, and some, no matter how much they regretted their earlier actions, simply couldn't bring themselves to apologize. They felt they had done no wrong. They had believed Thomas—wasn’t that just? Wasn't that what they were supposed to do?“If you fail to apo

“What is your name?” Richard asked, his curiosity piqued as Maya, the senior staff member, led him to the exclusive section of the restaurant.“I am Maya,” she replied, a slight smile curving her lips. “I’ve been working here for quite some time.” There was pride in her voice, the kind of quiet confidence that only comes with experience.Richard nodded, impressed. He could sense the professionalism radiating from her, and it was clear that Maya was not just another staff member but someone who knew her way around the fine dining world. As they walked, Richard observed the seamless elegance of the restaurant, with its polished floors and soft, golden lighting that created a warm, inviting atmosphere. This was a different world from what he was used to.Maya guided him to a secluded, single-person table that was tucked away in a corner, providing a peaceful and exclusive ambiance. “I think I like it here,” Richard said as he took a seat, his voice tinged with quiet satisfaction. “I’ll le

As Richard walked briskly down the quiet, winding path toward the restaurant, his mind was preoccupied with the thought of Amelia. The soft hum of the evening breeze and the distant chirp of crickets were the only sounds that accompanied his steps. Yet, something felt off. His senses tingled with an inexplicable sense of dread. He couldn't shake the feeling that something—someone—was watching him.Suddenly, he noticed them. A group of men, their figures emerging from the shadowed trees ahead. They moved with an eerie, predatory confidence, their eyes fixed on Richard. The air seemed to thicken, the oppressive weight of the moment pressing on his chest. He could tell from their ragged, weathered clothes, and their aggressive posture, that they were no strangers to violence. These weren’t just ordinary thugs. These men were here for a purpose, and that purpose was to cause harm.Richard's heart rate quickened, but he forced himself to stay calm, to think. He tried to take a step in anoth

Richard’s steps were quick, almost measured, as he made his way down the quiet path toward the restaurant. The cold evening air did little to settle his nerves, and each footfall echoed his racing thoughts. The confrontation with the thugs was still fresh in his mind, the harsh words and the threat of violence hanging heavy over him. He had barely processed the weight of the situation when the thought of Amelia waiting for him hit him like a cold gust of wind. She was expecting him—his promises to her lingered like a debt he couldn’t afford to ignore. His mind should have been focused on the confrontation, on the danger, but it kept returning to her. He couldn’t afford to let her down—not after everything they had been through.The world had just shifted beneath his feet, and yet, there was something even bigger waiting for him. The mention of Lucas Harrington’s name still echoed in his ears, reverberating through his skull like an insistent drumbeat. He couldn’t escape it. What did it

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. But beneath the surface, there was something much darker—something Richard could feel deep in his gut.As they entered the main hall, Zara immediately took charge. Her sharp eyes scanned the room, picking out key players and potential sources of information. Richard could tell she was calculating every move, every gesture, as if she was already five steps ahead of everyone

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

Lucas approached the gates with purpose, his eyes locking with the security guards. He spoke with them for a few moments, his voice smooth and firm. Richard couldn’t hear the exact words, but it was clear that the guards were now taking him seriously. One of them stepped back, presumably to relay the message inside, and a few moments later, the gates creaked open slightly.“Follow me,” one of the guards instructed, gesturing for Lucas to come inside.Margaret, filled with a mix of hope and caution, nodded and moved forward. “This is it,” she said to Richard, turning to face him with a weary smile. “I believe it will be resolved now.”Richard, however, had an uneasy feeling deep in his gut. Something wasn’t right. He could feel it in the air, the tension that was almost palpable. He wanted to trust Lucas, but he couldn’t shake the nagging doubt. This was the Hamiltons’ world, and people like Margaret and the protestors were just pawns.Minutes passed, then an unsettling sound cut throu
Chapter Three Hundred and Fifty Three
The air was thick with tension as Richard stood among the gathered protestors, his mind racing through the events that had led up to this moment. The group of disgruntled investors, led by Margaret, was growing increasingly frustrated with each passing minute, their voices rising in anger as they faced the iron gates of Hamilton Enterprises. Richard had stepped in to help, offering his expertise and resources, but even he knew that this was not a fight that could be easily won. Hamilton Enterprises was a powerhouse, and the Hamilton family, with all their wealth and connections, were not used to being challenged.Margaret, however, was undeterred. Her passion and sense of injustice were palpable. She had been duped into believing in a future she could trust, only to be burned by the very people she had put her faith in. Now, she wanted nothing more than to get the money back that she had invested, and she was determined to make sure everyone knew the truth.Despite Richard’s support,

Richard was tired. It had been a long day filled with both class and work, but as he walked home from the university, something unusual caught his eye. He noticed a group of people gathered near a building, their voices rising in frustration and anger. At first, Richard thought it was just another protest, maybe something political, but then something made him stop. The figure standing at the forefront of the crowd immediately drew his attention.It was Amelia’s mother, her face twisted with emotion as she stood at the front of the group, demanding something. Richard’s heart skipped a beat. He knew of her, of course—she was a woman of stature, well respected in the business world, and married into the Hamilton family, one of the wealthiest and most powerful families in the region. But what was she doing here, in front of a building that looked like it belonged to another powerful figure? It was rare for people of her caliber to be caught in such public displays of protest.He had alway
