Brenda Harrow’s office was silent except for the tick of the brass clock on her shelf. Damon sat on the edge of a stiff chair across from her desk, his back straight, hands folded in his lap. Four teachers flanked Brenda like a tribunal, papers and folders stacked before them. Brenda shuffled her notes, then fixed Damon with a frosty glare.“Mr. Newton,” Brenda began, her voice clipped, “we’re here to discuss grave matters concerning your conduct at Woodhurst Academy.”Damon didn’t flinch. “I’m aware you asked me here, Ms. Harrow. But no one’s told me what I’m accused of.”Mr. Langley snorted. “Playing innocent already.”Brenda ignored the interruption. “Let’s begin. Last week, you achieved a perfect score on Dr. Patel’s chemistry exam. Isn’t that right?”Damon nodded. “I studied hard.”Ms. Patel arched a brow. “You expect us to believe that?”Damon’s gaze didn’t waver. “Yes. I do.”Brenda leaned back, lacing her fingers. “We have reason to believe you obtained the answers in advance,

The auditorium at Woodhurst Academy was filled with excitement and anticipation. Lots of folding chairs lined up with students, teachers, and staff. They looked at questions alike with curiosity but also morbid fascination. The air was filled with whispers. " Did he really cheat? " " Is he getting expelled? " " I read he bribed a teacher! "At the very front of the room, on a raised platform, stood Brenda Harrow, her lips sunken with a self-congratulatory smile. Behind her at the corners were Mr. Langley, Ms. Patel, and Mrs. Ellis, who radiated a sense of justification. A long table sat before them, before which was alone Damon, his smile so tranquil he could not make out the details.Brenda threw a gavel at the podium, making waves in the hall. “We’re now in session for this disciplinary hearing, ” Brenda mumbled, loudly demanding an approving audience. “We are here with serious allegations of misconduct against Damon Newton. ”She turned to Damon and her frosty eyes bulged. "Mr. New

She looked at a group of students who were waiting in the wings. "These students came forward to share their experiences with Mr. Newton, and therefore they will give indisputable proof of his guilt.Damon remained composed, his eyes fixed on Brenda. "Before you call your witnesses Miss Harrow I would like to call a couple of people to speak on my behalf. "Brenda laughed. Her eyes quivered in disbelief. “You trust us to think that anyone would come to defend you, Mr Newton, after all the trouble you’ve caused? ”She raised her hand in dismissal of his demand but, before she could say anything, the doors of the auditorium slid open and all faces turned back to the door.He turned, grimaced, and took a step into the room. Behind him, a well-dressed woman in a size-suited suit stood a renowned lawyer, Mr. Howard, with his briefcase.Brenda's eyes twinkled in shock. "What the fuck is this? " she asked, her voice nearly tingling.Then Felix ignored her and trotted towards Damon. “I am sta

The Woodhurst Academy auditorium was a whirlwind of accusations and denials. Brenda Harrow, her face a mask of fury and humiliation, screamed over the rising din, "This is a setup! All of it! Newton orchestrated this!"As Dr. Grayson coolly presented evidence of Brenda's financial improprieties and the other teachers' ethical lapses, Damon stood silently, watching the scene unfold. His mind, however, drifted back to the weeks leading up to this moment, to the meticulous planning and strategic maneuvering that had brought him here.**(Flashback)***Weeks Earlier*Damon sat in his Master bedroom, the glow of his laptop illuminating his face. Felix paced back and forth, his brow furrowed with concern."Are you sure about this, Mr.Newton?" Felix asked, his voice laced with worry. "Going up against the entire administration? It's risky."Damon's fingers danced across the keyboard as he accessed the Wealth Generation System. "I don't have a choice, Felix, also call me Damon from now on, Mr.

The silence in the woodhurst academy auditorium had been broken only by a ragged breath coming out of Brenda Harrow's throat, and she thought Dr Grayson would be the last to say it: "You are out here, Brenda. Effective immediately. "While Brenda was still reeling from the slap on her face she finally spoke. This time, with a voice tinged with some kind of anger and doubt. 'You can't do this! ' she said, her eyes wandering around the room. 'I'm the principal! I have the power! 'Dr Grayson had the most frigid voice I've ever heard. "Not anymore, Brenda, because you lost your right to be head of this school.She turned, then, to Mr. Abernathy, chairman of the board, who nodded grimly at his own motion. "The board is in favour of Dr Grayson's judgement, " he told her, his voice authoritative. "Ms. Harrow, you have been relieved of your duties as principal of Woodhurst Academy. "Brenda's face crumpled. "But... but what about the school, what about my reputation? "Grayson's eyes were fi

The private lounge of the Duston Estate buzzed with murmurs of discontent and outrage. The vaulted ceilings and crystal chandeliers did nothing to lighten the oppressive air as Morrel Duston poured himself another glass of aged whiskey. He sipped thoughtfully, his jaw tight, before turning to the group of impeccably dressed parents seated on the leather armchairs around him. “This is unacceptable,” Morrel began, his voice sharp. “That boy, Damon, has made a mockery of this school. A mockery of us. And what does Brenda do? Nothing!” Jacob Cooper, a stout man with silver-streaked hair, leaned forward, resting his elbows on his knees. “We told her to get rid of him. We gave her everything she needed—fabricated evidence, rumors. And yet, she failed,” he said, his voice dripping with derision. “Now, he’s walking around like he owns the place.” “He’s not just walking around,” chimed in Evelyn Cooper, Jacob’s wife, her perfectly manicured nails tapping on her wine glass. “He’s flaunting h

“They’re underestimating me, Felix,” Damon muttered, staring out the panoramic window of his mansion. The city lights twinkled below, a vast tapestry of ambition and secrets. He swirled the amber liquid in his glass, the ice clinking softly.Felix, impeccably dressed as always, stood by the bar, polishing glasses with a meticulous hand. “It’s a common mistake, sir…uh.. i mean Damon,” he replied, his tone even. “People tend to judge a book by its cover.”Damon chuckled, a dry, humorless sound. “They see the errand boy, the scholarship student. They don’t see the wolf in sheep’s clothing.” He took a sip of his drink, his eyes still fixed on the cityscape. “They think I’m just lucky or a fluke maybe.”Felix paused in his polishing, a flicker of something unreadable in his eyes. “Do you believe in luck, sir?”Damon turned, a ghost of a smile playing on his lips. “I believe in making my own luck, Felix. And I believe in leverage.”He gestured towards the laptop sitting on the nearby coffe

Ballroom. Silky, diamond-studded. Stupid smiles all over the table. There were hundreds of people attending the annual Parent-Teacher Dinner Party, a nicely staged grand ball of relative opulence. Classical music in the background. A restful counterpoint to the rifling of champagne flutes and the whispering.Then Damon and Felix walked into the ballroom. Their formal attire compared sharply with those of the other guests. Damon was dressed in a suit that was trimmed with a pocket square. Felix was dressed in a suit that remained just the right size. He moved like he always did, and quietly and quietly. It didn't take long for people to notice. Their eyes turned, their shadows followed them like snouts.“They’re staring, sir,” Felix murmured, his eyes scanning the room.Damon grintily said, “let them stare at you Felix. It’s not every day they see a wolf among the sheep.”While they scuttled through the crowd, Morrel Duston and Jacob Cooper pulled them over, their faces plastered with

The ballroom buzzed, a hive of hushed whispers and shocked gasps. On the large screen behind Damon, a complex web of shell corporations glowed, each one a carefully crafted piece of Morrel Duston’s elaborate tax fraud scheme.“As you can see,” Damon said, his voice amplified by the microphone, “Mr. Duston’s philanthropy extends far beyond this school. He’s been quite generous… with the government’s money.”A ripple of nervous laughter went through the crowd. Morrel Duston, his face a mask of disbelief, sputtered, “That’s preposterous! Those are legitimate business expenses!”Damon clicked a button on his laptop, and the next slide appeared, a detailed spreadsheet of Duston’s financial transactions. “Legitimate, you say? Perhaps you can explain these… discrepancies to the IRS. I’m sure they’ll be fascinated by your creative accounting.”He turned his attention to Jacob Cooper. “And then there’s Mr. Cooper. A man of… diverse interests. Particularly interested, it seems, in governme

The aftermath of the gala was swift and brutal. The news had broken, spreading like wildfire through the city. The Duston and Cooper families, once pillars of the community, were now pariahs, their names synonymous with scandal and disgrace.“They’re calling for arrests, sir,” Felix said, handing Damon a tablet displaying a news website. The headline screamed: “Duston and Cooper Empires Crumble Amidst Fraud Allegations.”Damon sipped his coffee, a small smile playing on his lips. “Let the wheels of justice turn, Felix. They’ve earned their fate.”Then a phone call came in, this time from Christian.“Mr. Newton, please,” Redford pleaded, his voice cracking with desperation. “I’m sorry! I made a mistake! Don’t ruin me!”Damon’s voice was cold. “You had a choice, Christian. You chose to protect your criminal boss and his associates. Now, you’ll face the consequences.”He hung up, a grim satisfaction settling in his chest. Justice was being served.Back at school, Xavier and Ernie wer
