Huh?Everyone froze upon hearing Henry's outrageous remarks. What the hell was the young man saying? How the hell could he just stand up and say that the design was his?Even the man in charge of the auction was shocked as he looked at Henry. He knew quite well where all the sources of the designs came from. Even if the architects were present, they were forbidden from mentioning that the design was theirs.Wasn't Henry breaking the rules by saying something like that? But then looking at the calm expression on Henry's face, he could see that the latter didn't care and in no time would continue to talk."What the hell do you think you're saying?" Carl was first to come back to his senses and immediately he flew into a rage."Are you questioning the credibility of those who organized the auction?""You could as well claim that the other designs as well are yours." Carl sneered as he looked at Henry with a triumphant look on his face.Ethan on the other hand looked shocked hearing what
Everyone froze upon hearing what Henry said. What the hell was happening? Was this young man in front of them joking with them or could it be that he was saying the truth?The man in charge of the auction was also confused as he looked at Henry who had brought out the second design from his pocket.Though he didn't know whether the latter was telling the truth or not, he was quite excited to see how the design would look when it was completed.Even though they had all known that the first one on the screen was incomplete, they still couldn't help but feel a sense of respect towards the person who had drawn it.They didn't believe that it was Henry who had drawn it even though from the actions of the latter, they were supposed to have been convinced. But then they had extremely tough and unyielding minds which was why they didn't believe him.Henry on the other hand knew that everyone was not convinced that the design was his, he couldn't care less about it and slowly unfolded the othe
"Young man, you've got a good instinct, I like that." A hoarse voice came as an average-looking man came down from the car not too far from Henry."Well you've been observing me since the auction, and you didn't even care to hide it, still you waited for me here? Wouldn't I be a fool if I pretended as though I didn't notice?" Henry raised his brows looking at the man."Well, what can I say?" The man laughed as he said,"By the way, I'm Micheal Collins." The man continued as he stretched his hands forward for a handshake."I'm Henry Humphrey." Henry smiled, shaking the hands of the man."How about we go to the restaurant over there to discuss?" The man smiled pointing at a restaurant not too far from where they were."Well, I'm sorry, but I don't think I can, I've got a lot of things to attend to, so I'll appreciate it if you can just tell me what you wanna say right here. No one is around to spy on us, right?" Henry rejected politely."I never expected you to have such a violent person
"Good morning Young Master." Mia smiled as she greeted Henry just as he walked into the company."Good morning Mia." Alex smiled, returning Mia's greeting."Have all the executives arrived?" Alex asked with a smile on his face."Yes young master, they are all at the meeting hall waiting for you," Mia replied with a smile on her face."I hope you didn't tell them why I called for a meeting?" Alex raised his brows as he looked at Mia."No young master," Mia replied with a smile on her face.She was sure that they would have cooked up an excuse if she told them why the young master called for a meeting. Besides, she was also looking forward to seeing their shocked expression.In normal circumstances, she would have told them, but then yesterday, they had managed to vex her, as a result, she was very angry and was looking forward to seeing what their expressions would be like."Alright then, let's waste no time." Alex smiled and he walked out of the office while Mia followed closely behin
"Young Master, what punishment are you going to give to the executives?" Mia couldn't help but ask just as she walked out of the meeting Hall with Henry."Well, I don't know yet." Henry chuckled.He wasn't telling a lie and was telling the truth, he was too busy to bother about the executives, but that didn't mean that he wasn't going to teach them a lesson. Never was he going to let them off just like that."Alright, let's go to Nebular Technology Enterprise." Henry smiled as he walked out of the company.He had promised to come back the next day to help solve some of the problems. Besides, he still needed to find out who the traitor was. It would be a disaster if he couldn't figure out who the person was as they would continue to leak his plans.Though he could keep them to himself, it would be quite troublesome, and would have to do something about it, or else, he was going to lose out on it no matter what.In no time, the car pulled up in front of Nebular Technology Enterprise, th
"Young Master, are we heading there directly from here?" Mia asked as she looked at Henry.It was already the evening before Henry could finish the workload at Nebular Enterprise and was quite tired and hungry."Since there's free food, why won't we go." Henry chuckled as he walked to the car.Mia nodded and didn't say anything, the Young Master was quite condensing. Though she was quite anxious as she was looking forward to what would happen at the banquet, she could only hope that the Young Master wasn't going to stir up trouble.With the Young master's personality, he couldn't stir up some trouble especially if he was angered. But then Brooks' family was rather powerful and it would be better if they could thread carefully.In no time, the car pulled up in front of the building which was to be used. Henry smiled looking at the building, it was quite magnificent, but still, it lacked something, but then Henry couldn't care about this, it was none of business, so why should he care?
"Huh?"Everyone froze hearing what Henry had said, the people who had evaluated Henry just now looked at him once again as they felt a need to reevaluate this young man. He didn't have any money or power, yet he had such a gullible tongue.Wasn't he just looking for his death? But then they didn't say anything and just continued to watch on."I'm sorry sir, but you can not enter without an invitation." The guard said as he emitted a cold aura."Don't worry Mia, I'll handle it," Henry whispered to Mia, stopping her just as she was about to bring out the invitation card that was with her.Henry had the invitation card with him, but he was just too lazy to bring it out. Besides, he knew that the guards were intentionally trying to make things difficult for him. But then it was none of his business."And why did you say I can't go in?" Henry asked."Because you don't have an invitation." The guard replied as he sized up Henry."Then, why are they allowed to enter without invitation?" Henr
Everyone turned around simultaneously and looked at Henry incredulously.Henry shrugged as he had a look of, why are you all staring at me that way? Did you just expect me to lose out to him, you must all be joking.John on the other hand frowned slightly as he observed Henry, there was a smile etched at the corner of his face. He didn't expect that the former owner of Nebular Technology Enterprise was going to sell the company to Henry.He was the one behind the predicament of Nebular Technology Enterprise. He had thought that the owner was going to have no other choice but to sell the company to him at last, but then he didn't expect Henry to come into the picture.Apart from the fact that Henry could buy the company, he was also an architect, a very skilled one at that, didn't that mean that his plan was going to fail? Well, then he wasn't going to give up."Since the owner of the company is here, why didn't I see him come give any gift to my grandfather," John asked as he looked a
"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
"Mia, you should take care of yourself first. I'm fine." Henry sighed as he walked into his office.They had already gotten back to the company, and he had already had his hands treated. At the moment, all he needed was some time alone."You should go home now and get some rest." Henry continued as he turned to look at Mia who had not left despite asking her to leave."But...""You don't have to worry about me, Mia. I'll be fine. Besides, it's me they want, not you so you don't have to be afraid of anything." Henry interrupted Mia as he said."You should just head back home and not come until you're fine." Henry continued.Mia nodded and turned around walking out of the company in a daze. She knew that the Young Master was serious, so she had no other choice but to listen to his command if she wanted peace.The incident had a huge impact on her, she wanted to protect the young master at all costs, yet, she was the first to Chicken out in a real situation.Henry on the other hand sighe
"Mia!"Henry took in a deep breath and called Mia's name."Yes, young master," Mia replied as she turned to look at Henry while shivering slightly."Listen to what I'll say, you must carry them out in order, one mistake, and we'll both die."Henry said."Yes, young master." Mia nodded as she shivered.Though Henry didn't mean to scare her, he had no other choice but to tell her the consequences of making a mistake, it was grave and they would both go to the other world if they weren't careful."Unbuckle your seatbelt and then open the door slightly and hold the door. The moment I voice out my command, you'll open the door and jump out." Henry ordered, looking at the almost empty road, "But....""Just do as I said." Henry interrupted Mia and commanded."Yes, young master." Mia nodded and immediately unbuckled the seat belt with shivering hands, then she proceeded to open the car slightly and then held the door."So...so what next..." Mia asked as she shivered."Wait for my command," He
"Young Master, are we going with the driver?" Mia asked as they came out of the company."Nope, I'll be driving myself," Henry shook his head as he replied."Alright, I'll talk to him." Mia nodded and walked ahead of Henry going to meet the driver."Young master, here's the key to the car." Mia came back after a while giving Henry a key."So where are we headed to?" Mia asked feeling rather curious."Well then you should wait till we get there, you'll see it." Henry smiled as he walked towards the car parked outside the company.Getting in alongside Mia, he stepped on the accelerator and immediately the car shot forward at an incredible speed.At that moment, Henry's mind was occupied with a lot of things as he thought about what to do. The attack had started, there was no need to wait anymore as he was sure that the four families would make their moves anytime soon."Young Master, you looked worried, what's wrong?" Mia frowned as she looked at Henry's worried expression."It's just mi
"Or don't you all want to leave again?" Henry raised his brows as he looked at the old men, a quite unpleasant expression."You know I don't have space for old men like you in my company. You should go to the home of the elderly if you want a place where you'll be welcomed. As for my company, you are not welcome at all, hurry up and leave." Henry urged, pointing at the door."How dare you talk to us that way, you insolent brat!" The old man of the Brooks flew into a rage as he glared at Henry."I didn't talk to you rudely, I was only asking you to leave because I don't want visitors. Don't forget you're all on my turf." Henry shrugged."You...." The old men gritted their teeth as they pointed at Henry."You should hurry up and leave, then you go sort out the mess you created. Also, I'd like to advise you not to let anger blind you and do what you're not supposed to do.""Quick reminder, don't do whatever Victor would ask you to do." Henry smiled as he said."And who the hell do you th
Everyone froze hearing all that Henry said. What the heck was this? How the fuck did the latter develop such a bad mouth?Did he know that they were coming here and had already prepared a speech to annoy them even more so that they wouldn't be able to say what they came to say?Yes, that had to be the case. There was no way that wasn't the case. They were very sure of it. At the moment, they had to calm down so they would be able to get the words out of his mouth.The old man of the Brooks frowned as he looked at Henry. Just like the last time, the latter had a bad mouth, but then he wasn't in the mood for chats, all he wanted was for Henry to say all that he had done."Now that everyone is calm, we can sit down." Henry's calm voice came, breaking the silence."Mia, get them a glass of chilled water, they will need it later on!" Henry continued."Don't worry, we won't need it, besides, we don't intend to stay long!" The head of the Roberts family said even before Mia could move."Are
"Young Master, what are we going to do next?" Mia sighed as she looked at Henry waiting for his command."We are not going to do anything for now, let's watch and see what tricks Victor would pull." Henry shook his head and replied in a rather relaxed manner.Mia nodded as she agreed with the Young Master. Since the other party didn't do anything at the moment, there was no need for them to panic.Besides, they had known the true purpose of the letter's arrival, so there was no need for them to fear anything. They were just going to watch."Do you have any orders for me?" Mia asked, breaking the silence at its peak."No, I just feel quite tired and I want to sleep for quite a while." Henry yawned as he stretched his body."Alright then Young Master, I'll go get some things done. Have a nice rest." Mia nodded and walked out of the office.Henry sighed as his mind began to process a lot of things as he looked around. According to his calculation, with the arrival of Victor, a lot of thin
"Young Master, the master has called back," Mia said hurriedly to Henry who was sitting on the chair inside the office."Alright then." Henry nodded and stood up from the office chair going to sit on the sofa."Connect the call to the TV and make it a video call." Henry continued as he looked at the screen expectantly.Soon, the call was connected and in the next second, a figure appeared in front of the screen. Seeing the figure, Henry froze as he couldn't help but stare at the figure for a very long time.The figure looked just exactly like him, but a little bit older. It was as though he was the younger version of the figure on the screen."Son," Ethan called out slowly, seeing Henry.There were also tears in his eyes seeing Henry, it had been over twenty years since he last saw the latter. His son was now all grown up and even looked just like him."Father." Henry came back to his senses and called.There was a hint of coldness in his voice, he couldn't help it, after all, he wasn
Mia dialed the number with a sense of urgency, hoping to connect with Henry's father directly. After a few rings, a female voice answered, "Humphrey's residence, how may I assist you?""Good evening, ma'am. It's Mia, Henry's assistant. I need to speak with Mr. Humphrey urgently," Mia stated, her voice steady, eyes fixed on Henry. The phone was on a loudspeaker so he could hear every single thing. "I'm sorry, Mia, but Mr. Humphrey is currently in a crucial meeting and as his secretary, I can't afford to disturb him. I can relay a message or schedule a callback once he's available," the secretary responded professionally."This is a matter of utmost importance. Henry needs to speak with him directly. Please, let him know it's urgent," Mia emphasized, her tone leaving no room for negotiation.The secretary sighed on the other end, sensing the urgency in Mia's plea. "I'll try my best to get the message to Mr. Humphrey as soon as possible. Thank you for your understanding."Mia hung up, f
