With his mouth ajar, Mr. Lesley gaped at Adolphus, wondering what had gotten into him.

He was so popular in the school that even the professors know him as the poorest student. The one who's always the last to pay his fees.

The one who runs errands for most of the students, including the professors. 

Although he was brilliant and dashingly handsome, no one noticed any of that. All they saw was his penury.

After a long pause, Mr. Lesley snapped out of his shock and said in a very low and calm voice. “Are you sure that you're not high on drugs?" 

“How dare you come to my office and spew rubbish after assaulting the son of a very important person and the president of this school. You have no idea what you're in for." 

“I want to hurry back to class, Sir. Let's get this over and done with. Write down your details on this piece of paper." Adolphus said immediately, passing a plain paper to him with a very serious expression.

“All I need you to do for now is to call the police and arrest Richmond and his clique for framing and illegally arresting me last night.”

"I want him to feel shame and embarrassment and you'll be duly compensated for it. And as for what happened earlier, your superior must not hear of it because you might surprisingly take the fall.”

While Adolphus spoke with so much confidence and audacity, Mr. Lesley could not help but laugh.

Everything was sounding really funny to him but also serious at the same time.

Adolphus does not look like he was bluffing. But what's going on?

Where did he buy his confidence from?

“Sir, I know that you're a very busy person so just save both of our time. I want to go back to class and join my classmates." Adolphus added, sounding a little impatient.

His deep blue eyes glinted as he saw the shocking look on the man's face.

That's how he'd keep shocking them and leave them wondering what was going on.

After much pondering in his heart, Mr. Lesley wrote down his details while muttering some words.

“If it turns out that you're trying to make a fool of me, I'll make sure you're expelled and make your life more miserable than it already is." 

Adolphus didn't say a word. All he did was take the paper and send a sum of hundred thousand dollars to the man.

Before he left their apartment that morning, he had tried a little experiment by sending some of the money into the account he had been using.

He had only a few hundred dollars in it and transferred ten thousand dollars of which he received the notification immediately.

Now seated before the head of their department, he quickly transferred a hundred thousand dollars to him.

As soon as the notification came in and he confirmed it with his bank, Mr. Wesley's dark face quickly brightened and he began to smile sheepishly at Adolphus.

Because he was a greedy person and a money lover, he didn't care to find out if the money was clean or dirty.

As long as it had gotten into his account, there was no way he'd let it be taken away from him.

“Mr. Adolphus Stephenson, you got yourself a deal. I promise to make him pay for what he did to you.” The man said while still smiling like he was high on drugs.

“Good, now get to work. I want him attested before many students. His ego has to be crushed or you'll be in my bad books. And believe me, you have no idea what I'm now capable of." 

Adolphus flashed a wicked smile at the man, stood up and began to leave his office.

"You don't have to say it twice. Richmond is going to be humiliated before everyone, I promise.” Mr. Lesley replied back to his retreating back but Adolphus didn't stop.

When he left the office, Mr. Lesley quickly took his phone and began to look at the money alert, smiling to himself.

Just like that, he was a hundred thousand dollars richer. His salary of two months was what he got in a day.

What a miracle. All he had to do was to punish a spoiled brat for a crime he actually committed.

To hell with the relationship with Julian Wright, Richmond's father. Moreover, their so-called relationship had never brought that amount to him.

For a man who claimed to be extremely rich, he was rather too stingy.

Richmond and his father will be fine. For now, he was not going to throw away that amount of money.

***

At the lecture hall, Adolphus had just arrived at the place and went to sit with his friends.

From their gazes, he could tell how anxious and curious they were.

They wanted to know what transpired at the head of the department's office.

While every other student gaped at Adolphus and gossiped amongst themselves, Donald and Glover probed him to spill the tea.

“What happened? We actually thought you were going to be expelled. Richmond and the others have been bragging about being responsible for your expulsion." 

“In fact, he even threatened us to stay away from you or we'll be the next target. What's actually going on?" Donald inquired seriously while Glover nodded in agreement.

Adolphus laughed hard and was about to give a response but was interrupted.

"Hey, minion. What do you think you're doing here? I'll advise you to pack your trash now and start leaving this school because you'll certainly be expelled.” The voice belonged to Richmond.

"Yeah, it'll be better for you to leave and become a full time cleaner. Don't worry, I'll talk to Pius and his parents on your behalf.”

"I heard that you and your wretched mother have been sacked.” Svetlana added with an evil grin on her face.

"Leave him alone, you spoiled brat. Why don't you pick on someone in your league." A bold and daring voice called Richmond out.

Fortunately, Adolphus was fast enough to duck, sending Pius's hands flying in the air.When his eyes met with Adolphus's, he went pale for a moment before pulling himself together and barked. “You."

    With one last dangerous glance at Adolphus, Richmond began to leave the hotel with his clique while Adolphus waved them goodbye, grinning mischievously.At the garage where his BMW was parked, Richmond stopped beside his car, his chest inflating and deflating. There was so much rage in him as he balled his fist as if he was going to hit someone. To be honest, he would have hit any of his friends if they hadn't kept to themselves.They were very aware of Richmond's character and how they could be his next target if he had been annoyed by someone.“Damn that bastard." He yelled, lifting his fist to hit his car. However, he had to stop himself halfway to avoid getting himself injured or even damaging his precious car.“How dare that minion challenge me. Now his friends are also bringing words to me, insulting me." Richmond barked, still breathing heavily.“I've become the object of gossip in Boston University. Me, Richmond." He hit his chest while speaking like he was using all his ener

    As they stood up to leave, Adolphus could still see the discomfort in Pius’s body. More than anything, he wanted to come over and confront him but he had to pull himself together before his girls.He was a playboy and never hid his promiscuity. Moreover, his parents are rich and spoiled him silly so he was free to do as he liked. He could spend their money the way he wanted and might not even go for classes. Pius believed that everything his father owned belonged to him so there was no need to study so hard. Before Adolphus and his friends could step out of their chairs, a loud voice called out to him.“Hey minion. You've gotta be fucking kidding me. What are you doing here? Oh, let me guess, you came to see if you can be employed here.”“Well, I'm sorry to disappoint you. You won't be hired here because you don't qualify to even be a cleaner at a place like this.”“I actually came here to eat with my friends. We just finished our lunch. Sorry I didn't invite you.” Adolphus replied

Some who are good fans of Richmond and Svetlana were glaring at Adolphus so much that one had to confront him.“You're going to pay for embarrassing Richmond and Svetlana like that. I promise you.” The person who spoke was a very good friend of Svetlana, Prisca. “Don't worry, Richmond's father is going to deal with you for arresting his son. But wait, how did you do it?”“How were you able to get evidence?”“That's a mystery for you to solve so I'll let you drown in your own ignorance. You're not getting anything from me.” Adolphus sarcastically replied, smirking at her.Abigail, who had been happily watching the drama, walked over to meet with him and his friends but Adolphus quickly lowered his face.

Take my brother's and parents' names out of your mouth.”"Since you've decided to follow your rich playboy boyfriend, why won't you leave Adolphus alone.”"What did he ever do to you except for helping you out, you ungrateful bitch.”Abigail was not afraid of Richmond and his friends.
