“Yes.” June nodded and quickly pulled out her phone to reach Mr. Cross. Betty and the others were surprised about the fact that Greenville had no landing space. Even though it was a small town, it had a vast area that could be developed but that was a question only the government could respond to. “I want the highway cleared and a landing space created before we arrive,” Henry told June. She nodded again and relayed the information to Mr. Cross. After that, Henry and the others boarded the plane. A private plane was set aside for them immediately after Mr. Cross contacted the airport. The planes that were supposed to take off remained still for Henry’s private plane to take off. The managing director of the airport had no idea who Henry was and why Mr. Cross wanted an emergency plane set for him but he could tell that Henry was a very powerful person. After Henry’s plane took off, the pilots on standby were set to take off. They couldn’t afford to offend such a big shot. “Sir,

Henry sighed and turned to Kelvin. “What did the doctor say?”Kelvin was about to respond when Mr. Potter’s weak voice was heard. “Henry, is that you?”Henry and Kelvin immediately turned around. Mr. Potter had opened his eyes and was now struggling to sit up. Henry rushed to his aid.“I’m fine.” Mr. Potter said with a weak smile after seeing the concerned look on Henry’s face.Henry watched Mr. Potter closely. The man had aged rapidly in the last three years. His eyes had developed bags underneath. His lips looked dried and he had lost a lost of weight. Also, his hair was as white as snow. Henry could tell that Mr. Potter was trying to pretend that he was fit when it was clear that he was struggling.Soon, tears began to well up in Henry’s eyes. He clung to Mr. Potter’s arm. “I’m back.”“Yes.” Kelvin acknowledged with a nod.&nbs

After the door closed, Dr. Rita narrowed her gaze to the bundle of stacked cash placed inside the suitcase. She roughly counted the money and realized the total sum of 2 million dollars.Dr. Rita was so stunned that she was already gasping for breath. In a small town like Greenville, two million was enough to secure a big house. She immediately slammed the suitcase shut and yanked it from the table.As far as Dr.Rita was concerned, Mr. Potter was just a poor and helpless old man who relied on collecting trash and selling scraps his entire life so where did such a rich child come from?Dr. Rita was restless. She placed her hands on his hips and pressed her lips into a thin line. The imposing manners Henry had just displayed in her office was not something an ordinary person could have. She was now looking at the suitcase with her eyes feel of fear. Her heart was pounding very hard in her chest. She felt that she had already done her duty so she couldn

It was evident that Mr. Potter was awakened by the commotion outside the door. The old man had a worried expression on his face and Henry knew that the look was borne out of concern. Mr. Potter was worried over the fact that Henry might get into trouble.Henry reached Mr. Potter and sat beside him on the bed. He then looked down at him with a warm smile. “Mr. Potter, I am successful so it’s time to repay you. Your illness can not be treated here but that’s nothing to worry about. I’ve already contacted the best hospital and made arrangements. You’ll stay there until you’re treated.”Mr. Potter sighed. “Henry. You don’t have to make the matter look simple. I already know that I have stomach cancer and it’s in the late stage so don’t waste your little money on me.”“Mr. Potter. Money is not important to me now. I just want you to be alive and remember, I haven’t fulfilled my

Three months ago, old street where Mr. Potter’s House was located was chosen by developers in Greenville who was set to buil a company and according to them, Mr. Potter’s street was the ideal location.Meanwhile, some of the people living on old street were pleased with the demolition going on by the developers on the street because they were offered monetary compensation but the likes of Mr. Potter who preferred their home to any form of compensation were not happy with the initiative.The developers were taking advantage of the situation. Since the dwellers of old street in Greenville were peasants, they were only offered a hundred thousand dollars each as compensation. Some of the houses were even two storey buildings passed on to the dwellers years ago.Even though the amount was not enough to pay for the worth of the building, some of the town’s people felt that it was better compared to nothing because as far as they wer

Henry then asked Kelvin to get into the car and sit. Kelvin nodded and went back into the car. He leaned back on his seat and fell asleep in a short while. Kelvin had been so recently exhausted. Taking care of Mr. Potter at the hospital and supporting Hailey to care for the younger kids was a very difficult task. Among the children that Mr. Potter adopted, Henry, Kelvin and Hailey were the oldest. The rest were around eleven to eight years old. Henry went into the car and mounted the driver’s seat while June followed behind with the rest of the team. After driving for about twenty minutes, Henry pulled the car down the street. As he swerved the car toward Mr. Potter’s yard, Henry noticed the changes that had occurred during his absence in the last three years. There were houses that had been demolished and were now in a state of ruin. Looking closely at the ruins, Henry noticed that the neighborhood had lost its charm. Normally, kids used to play around till bedtime while the elder

“Okay.” Kelvin replied. Although he doesn’t understand why Henry wanted to gather everyone at their home at such a time, he hurriedly went out and began to knock from door to door. The residents of the neighborhood had a huge respect for Henry. So when Kelvin told that Henry was home and he needed to see them urgently, they all obliged. So far, Henry was the only kid in the neighborhood who had gone to the city for a university education. Most of the kids finish at high school level and start doing menial jobs to survive. They couldn’t afford a university education and none of them secured a scholarship.Meanwhile, the kids were not quite familiar with Henry after seeing them that night. Most of them had a vague memory of him but after seeing the way Hailey melted toward him, they could tell that he was family. While Hailey was putting them back to bed, the children couldn’t stop talking about the snacks Kelvin had put away. Some of the chocolates were also kept for them to finish

“How are we going to do this?” someone finally asked. Henry folded his arms across his chest. “Good question. All you have to do is sell your houses to me for two million each. You can use the money to secure other places and allow me to face the developers since your properties are going to become mine.” He explained. A thousand square kilometers of a three-bedroom flat in Greenville was only worth 500,000 thousand dollars so the money Henry was offering them was enough to buy two or more houses in other locations.“Henry, where did you get this money from?” the old man couldn’t help but ask. Henry smiled. Meanwhile, the money was sent by Uncle Nate when he sent over the plane to pick up Mr. Potter. Henry was the one who requested the cash so Uncle Nate delivered it from the city bank. Henry knew that it was going to be impossible to withdraw such a large amount of cash in a small city like Greenville. “So much money!”“Now, we’ll get to have 2 million dollars each?” another nei
