In the villa of the Smith family at Springwood garden, the Eastern side of Marylyn, Benedict was sitting on the balcony with Troy.

Benedict, whose recent goal was to flatter Troy at the slightest opportunity had been stepping up his game.

“Troy, you’re the best. The Star Moon hotel will be closed. Henry will be so mad!” declared Benedict. He laughed and fell back on his chair. “Without the Star Moon Hotel, Henry is nothing.”

As far as Troy and Benedict were concerned, the Starmoon Hotel was the only property that Henry had.

What they didn’t know was that in Henry’s eyes, the Star Moon hotel was just something he casually bought.

If not because Mr. Cross seemed broken, Henry wouldn’t bothered about the closure of the hotel at all.

Troy gave a nod, proving that he had accepted Benedict’s flattery. He smiled proudly. “You’re trying to flatter me right? Well, this will get you nowhere.”

Benedict smiled and said. “Is that so?”

Troy shook his head.

    Henry continued. “I want this training to be taken very seriously. Those who perform well will be rewarded with a double salary.”Steven suddenly ran out excitedly. “There you are. I found an important piece of information about the Smith Family.” He said and rushed to meet Henry. Henry didn’t let Steven speak. Instead, he turned to Mr. Cross and said. “Go and deal with the things we talked about.”Mr. Cross nodded. “Stabilize the heart of all the employees and let them know that this is only temporary. The hotel will be open for business very soon.”Henry said in a confident tone. “Yes sir.” Mr. Cross replied and went to gather all the employees for a meeting to convey Henry’s instructions. Henry turned to Steven. “Tell me, what news did you find?”Steven knew what Henry wanted him to find out about the Smith family so he specifically looked for valuable information. It took him a lot of time than he expected but in the end, he got what he wanted. He cleared his throat loudly and

    Troy was troubled because his client from overseas was waiting for their order to be completed. In order to finish the order on time, production lines had been pushed to the limit. Now that there was a problem with the database, the entire production line had to stop working. This means that the delivery will inevitably be delayed. The contract had stipulated that once the delivery was delayed, a penalty of over 100 million would be paid to the client. The more Troy thought about what was at stake, the more furious he became. “Mr. Smith!” the woman called out to Troy. For a moment, Troy forgot that he was on the phone.“The technical team had checked the database and found out that someone had tampered with the data.” She supplied. “Who is that bastard?” Troy spat. “Find him. I want to skin him alive.”Troy was as furious as a mad Tiger. The woman speaking to him on the phone was already trembling at her end. “Yes. I’ll go and investigate right now.” She said. The woman was Tro

    The production line was not only destroyed. It was a loss worth tens of millions because none of the orders could be completed not to mention the penalty that Troy was going to pay to the client. Even though Troy had a lot of money, he couldn’t bear such a huge loss. “Get ready. We’re going to the land armor industry.” Troy said to Benedict.Benedict stood still looking like a confused child. “Just forget about it,” Troy yelled and dashed into the house. A few moments later, Troy came out with a tee shirt on his shorts. He made his way to one of his cars and immediately after the chauffeur saw him approaching the car, he mounted the driver’s seat. Troy’s bodyguard joined him. “Take me to the company.”The driver started the car and sped out of the villa. Troy was bent on restoring the production line in the shortest period. Unfortunately, there was nothing Troy or his workers could do about it. The virus Steven had planted in their server was a deadly one. The virus had turned

    “Just give me the order and I’ll destroy them completely,” Steven said. At this point, Steven was already aware that Troy was the reason behind the sudden closure of the Star Moon hotel. Henry shook his head in disagreement with what Steven had just said. “This is just a small lesson for Troy. I will not let him go so easily. Since he dared to provoke me, then he’ll have to bear the most terrible consequences.” Said Henry. The destruction Steven caused had destroyed equipment worth tens of millions of dollars in the land armor company. Also, the virus had ruined the orders which would have fetched Troy a lot of profit. In Henry’s eyes, this was just a small lesson. This attack was insignificant so Troy should consider himself unlucky henceforth for offending him. As long as Troy is still alive, Henry’s attack will never end. Henry is determined not to let go of Troy because he knows that Troy’s goal is to take away his life. Henry had already sworn that he’d not give his enemy th

    Together with June and Mr. Cross, Henry arrived at the Hermes clubhouse. The agent Mr. Cross had sent to seal the deal had obtained the keys to the property from William and had handed it over to Mr. Cross. As they made their way toward the entrance, Henry noticed a group of men working on the name plaque. Mr. Cross turned to Henry with a smile. “I told them to eject it and carve the Garden of Eden since that’s the name of the place now.Henry gave a satisfactory nod and walked into the house. When Mr. Cross stepped inside, he looked up and rolled his eyes around the building then he turned to Henry. “Sir, this building was designed as a business model. Upstairs looks like a good place for elites to party while down here can serve as a small casino. I already imagine people walking around with alcohol.” Said Mr. Cross. Henry smiled. “It doesn’t matter. I have no intention of making this place famous. Just forget about the whole business model thing.”Henry then walked to the bar s

    Liam turned to his guards. “What are you guys still doing there? Grab her. I must teach her a lesson.”Liam’s thugs were about to put their hands on the singer when the security guards who had been begging Liam to go suddenly intervened. One of them rushed toward the girl and grabbed her, preventing Liam’s men from touching her. Liam turned to the security guard who was now placing the girl behind him. “You better let me have my way with that girl or else you’ll regret this.”“Please, Sir. Go away. You’re drunk.” The bold security guard said. Liam dashed toward the guard and slapped him very hard on the face. The security guard clenched his fist and wanted to retaliate but he sighed and lowered his hand. If he punches Liam, his job would be gone. Seeing that the security guard was helpless against him, Liam laughed proudly. “You want to punch me? Then go ahead.” He mocked the guard. Liam sent another slap on the face of the security guard. The guard closed his eyes and endured it.

    “She finally figured it out.” Liam sneered. He moved closer to Jessica. “Of course, I won’t spare you today but I won’t also let go of these security guards for defying me.”“You’re so arrogant!” George yelled and rushed toward Liam in the blink of an eye. He grabbed Liam’s shoulders and shoved him against the wall. Blood started gushing out of Liam’s nose trills. Suddenly, Liam’s men rushed to attack George. Liam covered his nose with the back of his palm and staggered away from the wall. “You can forget about living today. Kill this man.” He yelled at his thugs. Some of the men moved to their truck and returned a few moments later with baseball bats. “Stop!” Someone shouted. Everyone turned around to look. It was Henry. “Mr. Smith. You are so strong.” Henry walked in front of Liam and said with a sneer. “It’s you!” Three people exclaimed at the same time. The statement was made by Liam, Julian, and George simultaneously.Neither of them had expected to meet Henry there. Seein

    The bar manager had seen the way Liam trembled before Henry a while ago. He knew that he had met a more powerful man today. He walked up to Henry with a flattering smile.The bar manager then stretched out his hand to be acquainted with Henry but before he could even open his mouth to speak, June stepped in front of Henry and blocked him. She stared at the manager with contempt and folded her arms across her chest.“You’re not qualified to talk to Henry,” June said.The bar manager was stunned. He began to wonder whether June’s decision had to do with his actions. He had scolded George and the other security guards in front of Henry so Henry felt offended by him.The bar manager slowly withdrew his hand which had been lingering in the air. He quickly turned toward George and flashed a smile.“George. You know I care about you and the others but you can’t blame me for my actions. I was so a

    As the plane touched down in York City, Henry took a deep breath, ready to take on whatever came next. A few hours after landing, Henry called Tammy.He had been thinking about the life they had together, and the thought of leaving her behind weighed heavily on his heart.He dialed her number, the ringing tone filling the quiet of his private office. “Hey, Tammy,” Henry said as soon as she picked up. “Henry! You finally got through. I’ve been trying to reach you for days,” Tammy replied, her voice filled with relief. “I know, I’m sorry. Things have been a bit chaotic since I arrived in York City,” Henry explained.“But I wanted to ask you something. I’d love for you to come here with me. You’ve been such an important part of my life, and I can’t imagine doing all this without you. What do you think?” There was a long pause on the other end of the line. Henry could almost feel her hesitating. “I… I don’t know, Henry,” Tammy finally said.“I’ve just started with the Dream Angel gr

    One evening, after a particularly grueling day, Henry sat across from Tammy in his private study.The soft hum of the city outside the windows was the only sound that accompanied their silence. “Tammy,” Henry said, breaking the silence.“I know our lives are... complicated. But I want you to know that no matter what happens, I’m here. With you. Always.” Tammy’s heart fluttered at his words, her eyes softening as she gazed at him.“I know, Henry. And I’m here too. We’ll find a way to make this work. No matter how busy life gets, we’ll make time for each other. I promise.” Henry smiled, the tension in his shoulders easing. “I’m counting on you, Tammy.”The morning sun had just begun to rise over Marian City, casting a warm glow on the vast Parker empire.For years, Henry had poured his heart and soul into building his businesses, carefully cultivating them from the ground up.His family name had become synonymous with success, wealth, and influence, stretching across countless secto

    He thought he had already lost his life.Henry chuckled a bit.“She never misses a target but because you are family, she was being merciful. Think about that before you dare to double cross me in the future, cousin.” Henry said in sinister.June smirked as she looked at his face.“All talk but you are not even brave? Huh? Control the business? In your dreams, Daniel.”Later that evening, as the dust settled and the formalities of the day came to an end,Henry sat alone in his study, reflecting on the day’s events.The battle for the Parker legacy had been won, but he couldn’t shake the feeling that something more had shifted, something deeper. His phone buzzed, and Tammy’s name appeared on the screen.His heart skipped a beat as he answered. “Hey, Tammy,” he said, his voice soft, the exhaustion of the day lacing his words. “I heard the news,” Tammy said with a smile in her voice.“I mean, I saw it in the news. You did it. I knew you would.” Henry smiled, his fingers drumming on h

    This time, he knew that Tammy wasn’t just offering her support because it was the right thing to do.She genuinely cared for him, and in that moment, Henry realized how much he had come to rely on her.She was more than a friend now.She was something… more.Something he wasn’t ready to put into words, but that he felt every time they spoke. “I really appreciate you, Tammy,” Henry said quietly, his voice thick with emotion. “You’ve become more important to me than I ever expected.” There was a pause, and then Tammy responded, her voice teasing yet soft.“You know, Henry, I’ve always been here, right? You just had to notice.” Henry chuckled, the sound surprisingly light despite the tension in the air.“I’m starting to notice.” As the day of the family meeting drew closer, Henry couldn’t shake the feeling that he needed to make a move.One that would solidify his position not only as the rightful heir to the Parker empire but also as the leader of his own destiny.He knew that Danie

    A long pause followed, and Henry found himself staring out of the window, the weight of the world still heavy on his shoulders.But Tammy’s words had lifted him, even if just a little.He hadn’t realized how much he needed to hear them, how much he needed someone to remind him that it wasn’t all on him. “I just feel like I’m stuck between two worlds,” he admitted, his voice barely above a whisper.“The responsibilities of the empire, the family, and then… I don’t even know how to mourn properly. My grandfather meant so much to me.” Tammy’s voice was gentle, but there was a strength in it.“It’s okay to grieve, Henry. You don’t have to be strong all the time. It’s okay to take a moment for yourself, to feel everything that’s happening. It’s part of being human.” “I know,” Henry said, his voice thick with emotion.“But the pressure is constant. Daniel’s been… well, he’s been trying to undermine me, trying to take what’s mine. It feels like a battle on every front.” Tammy’s tone was

    Unlike Henry, who had dedicated his life to running the family businesses,Daniel had focused on the socialite life, parties, charity galas, and public appearances.He had the charm and charisma that many people admired, but Henry had always suspected that his cousin was more interested in the title of heir than the responsibilities that came with it. “Henry,” Daniel said, his voice smooth,“I’m glad you’re here. It’s a tough time for all of us, but we must think about the future. Your grandfather always said that the Parker legacy should be passed on to someone with the right vision.”His eyes gleamed as he spoke, his hand casually resting on the back of a chair, as if he were already preparing to sit at the head of the table. Henry didn’t respond immediately.His gaze swept over the room.His uncle, clearly shaken, was trying to hold it together.While his father, though stoic, seemed to be lost in his thoughts.The family lawyer, Mr. Grant, was seated at the end of the table, wai

No more delays.” Henry said, his voice firm.That evening, at the event, Tammy and the Dream Angel girls were preparing for their prime-time performance.The anticipation in the air was palpable.The stage was bathed in golden light, and the sound of the orchestra tuning their instruments echoed throughout the venue.Tammy, dressed in a stunning silver gown, was going over her lines with Jessica, Sasha, and Elena. “Tammy, you’ve got this,” Jessica reassured her, adjusting Tammy’s dress.“Just remember, you’re the star tonight. Don’t hold back.” Tammy nodded, feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness.The spotlight was about to b

    Backstage, the girls were elated.“We did it!” Sasha exclaimed, her voice bubbling with joy. “You were amazing,” Elena added, beaming. Tammy looked around at the smiling faces of her teammates, feeling an overwhelming sense of gratitude.“We all did this together.” Chelsea and Berry couldn’t help but pull the girls into a group.“Yayyyy! We did it.”They all shouted for joy.Just the, Henry also walked“You were incredible,” he said, his tone sincere. Tammy smiled, her heart racing.“Thank you, Henry. We couldn’t have done it without everyone’s support.”As the night wore on, Henry’s attention shifted to another matter.From across the room, he saw a familiar face.One of the small business owners who had recently tried to undermine his power.It was Gregory West, the owner of a struggling chain of luxury resorts, and someone who had attempted to make a move against his companies by poaching some of Henry’s key executives.These days he had been having too many enemies trying to s

    Meanwhile, Tammy and the Dream Angel group were preparing for the Harmony Gala.Though focused on their rehearsals, Tammy couldn’t help but notice Henry’s increasingly busy schedule.She admired how he managed his vast businesses, but she also worried about the pressure he must be under.She heard some of the staffs whispering somethings amongst themselves.“Mr. Parker is really incredible! Did you know he bought all the small businesses beside his hotel and still made them the managers?” one of them said.These employees were new and didn’t know that Henry is actually the direct heir of that “Parker” family with lots of power and health.Lenard and Lena chuckled as they heard them.“you guys, our boss’s power cannot be compared to anyone. He is from a powerful family.” Lenard said.“Yeah! he is very rich and has many businesses.
