“I just hope it doesn’t exceed a hundred…”Benjamin’s voice trailed off casually, as if he had just made a simple remark about a minor bill.For a brief moment, the office remained quiet.Then the dean standing beside him suddenly let out a sharp snort. He tried to suppress it, but the sound escaped anyway. His shoulders shook slightly as he turned his face away, clearly trying to contain his laughter.Benjamin glanced at him briefly.Across the desk, President Harold Whitmore also reacted as a light chuckle escaped him before he could stop it. And though the sound was not loud, it carried a certain level of amusement.Whitmore leaned back slightly in his chair, shaking his head once.Clearly , he had clearly overestimated this kid.A hundred thousand dollars?At Memoville Academy?That number was laughable.Even the smallest expenses at the institution could exceed that amount. Whitmore’s earlier curiosity faded slightly. It seemed Benjamin simply had no understanding of the numbers

For several seconds after Benjamin asked the question, the office remained quiet.President Harold Whitmore sat behind his desk, watching the young man in front of him with a look that was slowly turning more curious than authoritative.Beside the desk, the dean also stared at Benjamin. Both men shared the same thought.Why was he still calm?The situation in front of him was not small. Benjamin Lawson had just been suspended two weeks before final examinations. His scholarship had been revoked. And he had just been informed that he would now be responsible for paying an enormous amount of tuition.Yet he did not look panicked.He was not begging.He was not arguing.Instead, he stood there calmly asking questions like someone discussing a minor issue.Whitmore leaned back slightly in his chair, studying Benjamin carefully.In his experience, scholarship students reacted very differently in situations like this. Most of them came from modest backgrounds. They fought hard for those sch

“Your scholarship has been pulled.”The words settled quietly in the room.Benjamin stood in front of the desk, the envelope still in his hand. The paper inside it rustled slightly as his fingers adjusted their grip. His eyes lifted slowly toward Vice President Harold Whitmore. For a moment, Benjamin said nothing. His face simply remained calm. There was no visible panic, no sudden outburst and no desperate reaction.Inside his mind, however, Benjamin found the situation oddly amusing. It was almost surreal.A few hours ago, he had simply woken up late and rushed to class. Now he was standing inside the vice president’s office, holding a letter that revoked his scholarship and suspended him for two weeks.The chain of events was almost impressive, but Benjamin suppressed the faint amusement rising in his mind. Instead, he allowed his expression to change slightly.His brows tightened, while his eyes widened just a little. The reaction looked subtle, but convincing enough.Shock.At l

Benjamin followed the dean across the campus without saying much.The earlier scene in the courtyard slowly faded behind them as they walked along the paved pathway that led toward the administrative building. Students continued moving around the campus normally, but several of them still glanced at Benjamin as he passed.Some whispered quietly to their friends. Others simply watched him walk by. It was obvious that the video circulating online had already spread across the school.Benjamin ignored the attention, his focus was on the situation ahead.Walking beside him, the dean remained silent as well. His expression was neutral, though his pace was steady and purposeful. Within a few minutes they reached the administrative building. From the outside, the structure looked calm and dignified. Tall glass windows reflected the bright sky above the campus while the trimmed hedges around the entrance gave the place a quiet, prestigious appearance.Students rarely entered this building un

“But I guess that number isn’t very impressive... Compared to the number of relationships you’ve been in.”For a moment, the courtyard went completely silent.Benjamin’s voice had been calm when he said it. There was no anger in his tone, no raised voice, no dramatic gesture. He simply just stated it and that made the words land even harder.Rose stood frozen in front of him. Her face slowly stiffened as she processed what he had just said.Around them, several students stared.Then someone suddenly let out a small snort.Another student covered their mouth. And within seconds, the reaction spread. Laughter broke out across the courtyard. While some students tried to hold it in but failed miserably. Others openly laughed without even pretending to hide it. Even a few people who had been walking past earlier had stopped completely.Everyone understood what Benjamin meant. His words had been sharp but precise. The video circulating online had gathered over four million engagements alre

Morning had already settled fully over Memoville Academy.From the outside, the administrative building looked calm and dignified. Tall glass windows reflected the bright sky above the campus while the trimmed hedges around the entrance gave the place a quiet, prestigious appearance.Inside, however, the atmosphere was less peaceful.On the top floor of the building sat the office of the school’s vice president.The room was large and carefully arranged. A polished wooden desk stood near the windows, while several tall bookshelves lined the walls. Certificates, plaques, and framed photographs decorated the space, each representing years of academic achievements and institutional pride.Behind the desk sat President Harold Whitmore. Harold was a man in his late fifties with neatly combed grey hair and thin reading glasses resting low on his nose. His posture was straight as he reviewed a stack of documents placed neatly in front of him.The morning had been routine so far. Emails, adm
