2024-07-06 09:19:06“You’re from the Parker family.” Wayne spat.
In this world, only the Parker family was cruel to their children to make them stronger. Wayne knew that those who were of age were chased out of the house to live outside on their abilities.
Wayne looked up at Henry and let out a gasp. This meant that he was standing before the direct descendant of the Parker family. Wayne was speechless and he began to tremble. He was looking forward to meeting a rich man when the guards picked him up but he didn’t expect it to be the direct heir of the Parker family. No wonder his pancakes were paid for with a gift of 100,000 dollars.
Cold sweat began to flow down from Wayne’s head. This meant that the young man sitting in front of him could be in charge of the Parker family in the future. He knew that the power and influence of Henry gave him access to the toughest and best guards so what does he want from him?
Wayne saw that June had bee

Troy was destroying all the appliances, paintings, and artifacts in his room. As the heir to the Smith family, Troy felt like he had been reduced to nothing. Now that he was in this situation, he felt hopeless. Troy was respected wherever he went and now, even the Eye of Dark Knight which he considers mere did not seem to respect him.The only way Troy could vent his anger was by ruining the things in his room.

Henry also knew that he was asking too much from Steven. No matter how skilled Steven was, it was impossible to use his tracking skills in an area dominated by trees and rocks.Steven raised an index finger. “What if I can connect their facial recognition to all the monitoring systems.”“Is that even possible?” Henry asked.“As long as they appear from the mountains, I think there’s a chance of finding them,” Steven replied. He tossed his food to the side and faced the computer.Henry nodded hopelessly. “Just do your thing and please, hurry up.”Steven needed to expose Chelsea and the others under surveillance before he could find them. If Troy was being meticulous, he could cover their faces or keep them inside a car.Henry was about to step out of Steven’s office when Mr. Cross ran over.“Sir, all the security officers are gathered.”“Let’s go immediately. We don’t have time to spare.” Henry replied.“Yes, sir.”“I hope the three of them are safe,” Henry muttered under his breath.H

On the helicopter, Henry kept dialing Steven’s number but it took a while before the call was responded to. Henry’s heart skipped a beat when Steven responded to the call. “Steven. Is that you? How are you? Are you okay? Where are you?” Henry asked anxiously. The sound of the helicopter was so loud that Henry was shouting at the top of his voice. Steven coughed. “Henry, I’m right here. I’m fine. I’m trying to fix the hotel’s automatic stimulating fire system.” He said and went on coughing. Although the fire had not spread to the floor where Steven was, the smoke was already getting to him. Steven had been using a wet towel to cover his mouth and nose but he was still choking on smoke. “The situation is already messed up. Why are you suffering yourself? You need to be evacuated immediately. I’m currently coming in a helicopter. I need you to stand by the window and try as much as you can to get away from the smoke.” Henry said. Henry was in a panic. He had already seen the video s

Henry’s helicopter reached the hotel. As they flew to the landing pad at the roof of the hotel, Henry looked at the countless hot flames flying out of the window of the hotel rooms. His eyes were anxiously searching for clues of Steven on the move. “We need to land on the roof immediately. We need to save Steven.” Henry said to the pilot. The helicopter suddenly shook violently.The pilot shouted in fear. “Chairman, the fire below is too strong which is making the area above the hotel unstable. It will be dangerous for us to get closer and get to the landing pad.”The high temperature of the fire swept off extremely violent fire currents and rose straight up from the top of the hotel. This was such a disaster that a small helicopter could not withstand it. Moreover, the smoke created by the fire formed a height above the hotel. If the helicopter rushes into the smoke, the engine will lack oxygen and they will be at risk because the engine would be stalling at any time. “Then what

Steven felt that he had reached his limit. His body became heavier and his pulse grew faint while his heartbeat became slower. Steven could not hold on any longer and was about to collapse.The door of the room was suddenly kicked open. “Steven!” Wayne rushed in. He went to Steven and helped him up. “Let’s go.”With Steven in his arms, Wayne was about to walk out but his feet were subdued by his lack of confidence. Even if he gets to the roof, he cannot take the plane and leave. It was impossible to jump with an unconscious Steven. Wayne hopes that the rest will think of a good idea. After Wayne shook him vigorously, Steven opened his eyes and dragged his feet. “No, I can’t leave now. The automatic extinguishing fire system will be installed soon.”Steven coughed violently and slumped. Wayne placed him against the wall and ran to the computer. He looked at the screen and noticed that the automatic extinguishing fire system was about to be installed. He turned to Steven. “You’re ama

Henry took out his phone and immediately placed a call to Miss Rose. “I need your help.” He stated the moment she responded to his call. “Mr. Parker, what can I do for you?” Miss Rose asked calmly. “Three of my classmates went missing on the mountain where they went camping. I need you to help me find them. They were most likely captured by Troy. Can you accept the task?” Henry said. Miss Rose smiled from her end. She cleared her throat loudly and said. “Of course, yes. I just want Mr. Parker to agree to one thing.”“Go ahead.”“If I help you, it means I’ll offend the Smith family. I’d like to become your subordinate after this matter is resolved. Only under the wings of your family can I escape the Smith’s revenge.” She told Henry. Miss Rose wasn’t afraid of Troy even though the Eye of Dark Knight was not as powerful as the Smith family. Miss Rose knew that she could still avoid the revenge of the Smith family. The reason why she requested Henry was because she wanted to use thi

“Jacob!” Henry professed with so much anger in his voice. That name kept appearing in his mind. It was evident that the fire had something to do with Jacob. Who could have thought that the person who caused the fire in the hotel that almost claimed Steven’s life could have been Jacob?Henry couldn’t help but wonder whether the disappearance of Chelsea and the others had something to do with Jacob. He kept analyzing the reason while Jacob did all these things in his heart. Although his relationship with Jacob was nothing special, it was not to the extent that there was hatred or rivalry between them. The ringing of Henry’s phone brought him back to reality. He glanced at the phone screen and saw that the caller was Jacob. Henry exhaled sharply and took a deep breath in his bid to make his tone as gentle as possible. He did not want to fall out with Jacob before the matter was clarified. “Hey, Jacob. Were you able to get Chelsea and the others out?” Henry asked. Henry heard Jacob sigh

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.
