Chapter 1: SCAVENGER
Marylyn University possessed a silence at dawn that stretches towards every corner of the school, especially during the weekends but when students are up, it’s always a hustle and bustle, accompanied by squeals, rush hours, and excitements.Today was the Dragon boat race so the students took advantage of the free day to sleep till later in the day when the event would take place. However, not all students were asleep during the early hours of that morning.The A students who seized every opportunity to study were on their way to the study halls while some of the school’s sub-staff were kicking off with their duties.Two petites bearing the same blonde hair were on their way to the study hall when one of them noticed a male student hurrying toward the school entrance.With his hands tucked inside his pockets and his face slightly buried inside the black hoodie he wore, he continued hurrying toward the school entrance ensuring his long legs were serving their purpose.One of the girls w

CHAPTER 2: FORTUNE STRIKES
Bella continued.“Isn’t it obvious that you and I are from distant worlds? And by the way, I’m with Benedict now.” She flipped her hair.After a few moments of silence provoked by shock, Henry spoke. “I can see it’s because of the money.” He then let out a bitter laugh.Bella giggled. “If you had any of that then maybe this wouldn’t have happened. I can’t pretend. I don’t want to be with a low life like you, Henry,” She said.On his part, Henry had dreaded that this day would come because he always thought that their relationship wouldn’t last. After she agreed to be his girlfriend, Bella had warned him to keep it discreet, and as far as he was concerned, only Daisy was aware of their relationship.Henry stared at the phone and pressed his lips to a thin line. He sighed and pondered about blaming Bella.Who would want to date a scavenger? He thought. The ridicule must have got to her and maybe she couldn’t bear it anymore.He looked at her in disbelief.Bella folded her arms across h

CHAPTER 3: TOO MUCH MONEY
Henry could choose not to work and spend his money on a lavish lifestyle. His inheritance could last for the rest of his life. In fact, there were certain heirs in the Parker family across several generations who chose not to work but lived a lavish lifestyle for the rest of their lives.However, the elders noticed that the family tradition was fading because instead of working hard to expand the empire, some of the heirs chose to squander their wealth so a new order was instilled.A competition was initiated among the heirs to determine who would be the head of the family in every generation of the Parker family for a fixed time and successors had the right to compete for a reelection.The criterion that one must fulfill to become the head of the family is to use his inheritance to generate high value so the person who invests his wealth and generates more value is made supreme heir. Henry had considered this before leaving home.Henry has two competitions in the family that is if he

CHAPTER 4: THE PARKER VOUCHER
Stacey concluded that even if Henry wanted to keep a low profile with the kind of money he was claiming to have, he wouldn’t be dressed in those rags.“Are you telling me your assets are worth 100 million dollars?” Stacey demanded in disbelief. Henry shook his head. “100 million is too little. It should be around 10 billion at least.”10 billion was what the other heirs got each. Stacey was rendered speechless. Henry said nothing.She sighed after a brief moment of silence and palmed her forehead. “There must be a limit to making this up don’t you think?”Henry wanted to speak but Stacey didn’t let him for she had begun to rant.“How many people will dare to say they have 1oo million dollars and then here you are, claiming to have about 10 billion?”Henry sighed. There was no point arguing with Stacey. After all, she wasn’t the first person to look down on him. He simply raised his head and began to roll his eyes around the reception then his gaze was fixated on the door with the VI

CHAPTER 5: THE STEWARD
“Of course.” Mr. Falls stated firmly.“I want to initiate a transaction for the transfer of assets and I would love to withdraw some cash,” Henry said. “Also, I’ll need responses because I’ve got some questions to ask. This is my first time doing this.” He added.Mr. Falls arched a brow. “And how much in total are we talking about?”Henry cocked his head. “I think 10 billion dollars.”Mr. Falls sprung from his chair. It was the second time he had done that. The first time was when he saw the voucher. He began to stammer.“10 billion? Mr. Parker that’s way above our pay grade and since the inception of this bank, I’m not sure if a transaction has occurred.”Henry said nothing.“Why don’t you give me a moment?” Mr. Falls requested and quickly pulled out his phone from one of the table cabinets. “Let me give the CEO a call.”Henry nodded in agreement. Mr. Falls stood up and quickly dashed out.Meanwhile, Stacey was holding a small tray with a cup of coffee on it and was headed towards Mr

Chapter 6: THE VAULT
Henry couldn’t hide his excitement. “Uncle Nate!” he kept calling out. He felt so happy to see someone very close to him after a lot of years.“Why are you here?” Henry asked. He knew that the Parkers and their allies don’t just see up anywhere except there was an exception.Nate Parker has been Henrys fathers’ steward for 27 years. It was after Henry parent’s suddenly died that he resigned and left the family. Henry was one of the few people that felt strongly toward him.“I’m now the CEO of the City Bank Marylyn branch,” Nate revealed with a smile.Henry was astonished.Nate winked. “Young man, I guess you must be wondering how an old man like me became the President of City Bank.”Henry didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He had fond memories of Nate as a kind person and now that he was old, Henry could decipher from his consistent winks that he still doesn’t take things seriously just like old times.Henry sat up. “Uncle Nate, I’m very curious but I don’t know if it’s convenient

CHAPTER 7: LATEST BILLIONAIRE
Nate looked strangely at Henry. “You think that’s a lot?”Henry was rendered speechless.“Did you know that your father inherited the same amount as you?” Nate supplied. “That was like 20 years ago.” He added.When Henry thought about it, he realized that his father was a lucky man because about 30 billion dollars about 20 years ago was a lot of money compared to his time now that the dollar had depreciated.Henry sighed.Nate moved closer to him. “You know why I say the family is stingy? The value of this inheritance should have increased over time but it didn’t. Nevertheless, your father was a generous man.”Henry looked up at him. “Uncle Nate, what do you mean by that?”“You must know that the wealth of the Parker family belongs to the family and as for those who died, their wealth will be used as a startup capital for the next generation,” Nate said. Henry was paying keen attention.“If those who inherit the wealth start their own business and succeed, they can control their mon

CHAPTER 8: BELLA’s BIRTHDAY BASH
Stacey grinned. “Mr. Parker, what a coincidence. We meet again.”Henry stared at her intently. He realized that she was no longer wearing the long skirt and silk shirt she had earlier. She was now wearing a British suit with a mini skirt. She had even applied a light makeup and for a moment, Henry found her quite attractive.While Henry was yet to give her a response, Stacey moved closer to him, maintaining a sheepish grin. “Did you drive here? If not, I can give you a ride home.”Henry was speechless.Stacey continued. “You know, it’s such a coincidence that I had just closed for the day and it’s obvious you’ve been waiting here for a cab for quite a while so hop in and let me drop you off.”“Did you say coincidence?” Henry finally spoke. He cracked a smile and then the thought of Bella wavered in his mind. He found both women compatible because they had proven that their actions could be shaped by the power of money.Stacey began to fondle her pinky finger while licking her lips sli

CHAPTER 9: LET THE PARTY BEGIN
The more Henry went through the messages. The more infuriated he was. Soon, more messages began flooding in. In a flash, Henry stood up and kicked the stool facing his bed.He had endured their demeaning comments for too long. They had gotten too far this time.Was that how they took advantage of his inactivity in the group to gossip about him? Wondered Henry.He kept restraining himself from reading the messages but again. Benedict was typing and Henry wanted to read what he wrote.Benedict finally dropped the message and it read: while you guys eat and drink, Bella and I will go to one of the hotel rooms and have fun. Is Henry there?While Henry’s rage heightened, he saw another message in the group and this time, the message was from Bella. As if she knew he was reading the messages, Bella wrote under Benedict’s message.That’s right Henry. Benedict and I are off to have fun. You can’t compare to him anyway.Henry felt his heart shredding into pieces. While his eyes burned with fur

CHAPTER 10
With his head held high, Henry took graceful steps into the hall. All eyes were flung on him and when the audience noticed the dame beside him, tongues began to wag. Meanwhile, Stacy’s arm was tucked right around Henry’s. She was holding onto him tightly to prove to the crowd that her relationship with him wasn’t platonic. Murmurs began to fly through every corner of the room. “Is that his girlfriend?”“She’s so damn hot!”“Where did Henry get such a beauty from?”When Henry was approaching Benedict, the whole room fell silent. Everyone had understood that there was about to be a battle between Benedict and Henry. Benedict broke into a dry laugh and cast a contemptuous look at Henry. Henry held up his malicious stare and reciprocated the look. As the boys kept staring at each other with fury in their eyes, the crowd couldn’t help but compare Bella’s beauty to Stacey’s. If Bella’s skin was as bright as the sun and her beauty was as blinding, Stacey’s skin glowed and could illumin
