"What is it that you need my help with?" Ethan asked, looking at Henry with a smile on his face."What I need is not too hard, I'll just need to use your reputation and resources," Henry replied with a smile."Are you sure you wouldn't be needing anything else?" Ethan asked, still feeling worried."Nope, you shouldn't get all tensed up on my case, old man. I'm perfectly fine," Henry laughed.He knew that Ethan was genuinely worried about him, and he couldn't help but appreciate him. But still, there was no need to be so tense.He was quite sure that it was Victor who had staged the attack. As for the other families, they were just being used.Though he was the first player who had been playing the families all along, he didn't play them in a way that was going to affect them. It was all when the second player, his cousin, came into light that everything took a turn for the worse.That was not nice in any way. He knew the second player was going to dump them once the pawns became usele
"Where do you think you are going?" A voice asked. Henry frowned as he stared at the figure in front of him. "I'm not staying any longer, I need to leave this place, I feel suffocated." Henry frowned as he looked at the man in front of him staring at him with disgust."The manager requested you to watch the award-giving ceremony before you leave." The voice frowned."Fine." Henry groaned as he walked back to his seat feeling rather defeated.It was not as if he could go against the orders of his boss, so he could only sit down amidst the other employees watching the processing."And, the award for the Best Architectural Designer of the Month goes to Patrick Gonzalez." The loud voice of the Mc came and the clapping of the audience brought Henry out of his thoughts as he looked at the stage, his heart broken.This wasn't the first time this was happening. That award was supposed to be his, but no, it had been passed to his boss instead.He was an employee of Nexus Architects and was v
Henry's heart sank seeing who it was. Sighing he picked up the phone as he prayed for good news even though he knew it was futile as what he was going to receive was bad news."Henry, how are you doing?" A gentle voice came from the other end of the phone."I'm fine doctor, how's my mother?" Henry sighed as she asked."Well, I called you to inform you of her condition." The voice on the other end of the phone replied."Is she fine?" Henry asked, feeling rather optimistic even though he knew that the news he would be receiving would be bad."Well..." The voice on the other end sighed, as his voice trailed off."Doctor, please say it." Henry pleaded, it was just as he had guessed, it was going to be bad news and he was already prepared to hear it."Well, your mother's condition is becoming worse, and you need to start her treatment urgently, or else I'm afraid we'll be helpless once it enters stage III."Henry's heart sank hearing what the doctor said, he couldn't believe his ears, it w
"Son?" Henry creased his brow as he muttered the world, it was as if though he didn't hear well."Yes, son, I'm your father." The voice on the other end of the phone said happily."I'm sorry, but my father is dead," Henry replied coldly."No...""Get the Fuck off my phone, my father is long dead I don't have one." Henry huffed as he angrily disconnected the call He wasn't in the mood for any prank. At the moment, he felt so angry as though he should hit the one who had just called him and was claiming to be his father.Ring! Ring!Henry's phone rang again. Looking at the caller's ID, he saw it was the same number and angrily disconnected the call.Not long after, the phone rang again, this time, it was also the same number and Henry angrily disconnected the call.The phone rang again and he angrily disconnected it once again. Then again, and again, and again which annoyed Henry greatly.After the Fifth ringing, Henry frowned and picked up the call."What the hell do you want, I thou
Henry scowled as he turned around to look at the figure who had just called him."Ohh, it's you, Abigail." Henry smiled as he looked at her. There were no emotions in his eyes and they looked rather empty."You had the guts to look for another woman right after I broke up with you, how dare you?" Abigail fired as she looked at Henry before looking at Mia.She was jealous of Mia as the latter was more beautiful than her, besides, she was dressed luxuriously. Even Patrick wouldn't be able to afford the brand of clothes she was wearing."And how's that my business?" Henry inquired as he stared at her. "How dare you?" Abigail sneered."Well the last time I checked, you returned the engagement ring I gave you and called me a stranger, so I think the same applies to you." Henry shrugged."Besides, it's just as you've said, we are not of the same world, we were never meant to be together, so I don't think you should worry about anything.""Also, since you've engaged to the one who loves you
"Young Master, I'm sorry, but I think I'll have to leave." Mia frowned as she looked at her watch."Alright," Henry nodded."I'll give you a call once I'm done with my work," Mia continued."There'll be no need, I'll give you a call once I need your help." Henry smiled as he shook his head."Farewell Young Master." Mia smiled as she entered the car which was waiting for her.Henry nodded with a sigh as he looked at the car drive into the distance. Everything looked like a dream to him, in just a day, he went from a useless loser to the son of the richest man in the country.Well, he wasn't going to think about it too much and just let nature take its cause. Besides, it was time to shake the business industry. He has a great talent, but then he had always been suppressed by Patrick.Now that he was given another chance, he was going to make sure to cause a huge ripple in the business industry.A smile appeared on Henry's lips as he thought about it. Well then that was it, he had other
"Well, I don't know how well the mall is doing, but here's a potential buyer." Janet laughed as she pointed at Henry."Huh?" The shirt chubby man who had just walked into the scene froze upon hearing Janet's statement."Well, I'd like to see the one who wants to buy out the mall." The man chuckled."Here he is by my side," Janet smiled as she pointed at Henry who had his hands in his pockets."Well..." The man muttered as he stared at Henry."Meet our rich young master, Henry..""Henry, meet the Manager of the Crystal Mall," Janet smiled as she Introduced Henry to the manager."Well, young man, are you intent on buying out the mall?" The short chubby man frowned as he looked at Henry.Even though there was a hint of disdain in his eyes, he didn't dare look down on the latter as the latter had a kind of strange aura that made him stand out.Even though he was dressed poorly and was looked down upon by all the people present, the calmness in his eyes was Otherworldly. It was as if he wa
Henry sighed as he walked out of the mall. It had been quite a while since he had entered. Since there was nothing else to do, he could as well go check the company out. It was finally time to start.Thinking like this, Henry walked down the road, flagged down a taxi, and hopped in.---An hour later, the taxi pulled up in front of Nexus Architects. Even though Mia didn't say what company was given to him, Judging from what she said, he could tell that she was here at the company."Where do you think you are going?" A hoarse voice came just as Henry was about to enter the company.Henry frowned as he looked at the guards who had just stopped him. He could remember that they were the same ones who had thrown him out of the hall today."Do you want us to break your legs?" One of the guards sneered as he looked at Henry with hostility."Didn't you hear what the boss said earlier, that you shouldn't come near the company?" Another of the guards frowned as he looked at Henry.Henry frowned
