Nate continued. “The Gale family has been running this hospital pretty well so I have a suggestion.”Henry folded his arms across his chest and faced Nate. “What’s the suggestion?”President Gale was paying keen attention. “While you take over the shares and ownership rights, I’d like the same management to continue running the hospital,” Nate said. Henry hummed. If he was going to go by Nate’s assertion that the Gale family was most fit to run the hospital then Dr. Derrick had to be an exception. Henry had no intention of ripping them off their management. He knew how important the hospital was to them but he’d appreciate it if the like of Dr. Derrick were fished out.“That’s a wonderful idea. I’m cool with it.” Henry replied. President Gale smiled. “Mr. Parker, on behalf of the Gale family, thank you for your trust.” He bowed. The Gale family had been running Lifeline Hospital for several generations. Normally, if someone offered to buy it, they wouldn’t accept it because lots o

Berry moved closer and winked at Henry. “Hey, I also learned that Benedict was humiliated by you. Is it true?”Henry was speechless. He looked at Berry who seemed eager to get more details about Benedict’s humiliation from him. Henry felt that ever since he got his inheritance, he had been acting quite irrationally. Did he just exercise his power over the hotel and buy the hospital so that people could respect him?He just wanted to prove a point and now, he wondered what made him different from the likes of Benedict and other pompous rich men out there. Could it be that this was the real him? Had he been suppressing his arrogant emotions for the past 6 years that he was collecting trash? Henry kept wondering. Could money make people act differently?Nevertheless, Henry does not like arrogance. He prefers an ordinary and super life. He concluded that his terrible experience with pain, poverty, and ridicule shaped his actions in the last few days. The more he thought about it, the

Jacob was the kind of guy that always loved to steal the show. Berry knew that the only company he might have tonight was Henry and if he refuses to show up, he’ll be forced to hang around Jacob and his girlfriend who always wanted to be the center of attention. When Henry turned around, Jacob’s phone began to ring. He lifted a hand to Henry to give him a moment. He quickly responded. It was a video call from his girlfriend. “Hi, babe!”She flipped her hair and began to throw a tantrum. “You know what babe, you better watch out for your dorm guys and ensure they look good. I don’t want you showing up with them wearing cheap clothes around you and also looking very ordinary. You know I’m hosting tonight’s social gathering, right? Everything has to be perfect.”Henry and the boys exchanged glances. She continued. “And for that Henry, he better not show up if he’s going to come here smelling like trash. We heard that he’s suddenly rich but some of us are so sure it was a prank.”Jaco

Henry stepped out and was about to follow the boys into the busy bar when he noticed a famous black Benz parked on the other side of the street. “You guys should go in first. I’ll join you later.” Henry said and turned away. He was about to head toward the vehicle. “Hey, you don’t have to run away.” Berry cried out. “Are you sure you’re not running away from Bella?” During his short meetings with Nate in the past few days, Henry had come to recognize Nate’s car. Henry smiled. “Trust me guys. This has nothing to do with me running away. I just need a moment.”Jacob was already standing by the door. “What are you guys still doing outside? All the cool spots are going to be taken.”Dalton and Berry reluctantly followed Jacob into the bar. When Jacob stepped in, he was greeted by Aida, and standing beside her were two members of the Fantastic Four group. Molly had stepped out. The girls exchanged pleasantries with Jacon and blushed when he complimented their outfits. Aida grabbed

“Yes,” Henry said, admitting the fact that he stole Jean’s drink.“What?” everyone at the table screamed in disbelief. Henry turned away with a bitter smile. It was weird to actually meet the owner of the sprite he had devoured two days back at such an auspicious gathering. Did he make a mistake by stepping out tonight with the boys? He wondered. Courtney leaned toward Jean and began to whisper. “Are you he’s the disgusting guy? This person is handsome.”Aida shook her head in frustration. She wondered whether Courtney hadn’t met the famous scavenger on campus. Courtney might have never crossed paths with Henry because she stayed off campus. “How can such a handsome man do a thing like that?” said Courtney. She shook her head and turned to Henry. “Forget it. He looks cheap anyway.”Henry was now the center of attention in the small gathering. The ladies were harboring disgust on their faces. Berry secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He was now free from their judgmental gazes. Jaco

Mathew sneered and looked at Henry with a threatening look. He then smirked and walked back to his table. Henry didn’t mind. He simply went back to his seat. Berry quickly stood up and sat beside Henry, the spot Jean had earlier occupied. “Look, Mathew is not someone to play with. I saw you having a verbal exchange with him. You have to be careful, Henry.” Berry warned. “He just threatened me,” Henry replied. Berry gasped. “What?” asked Henry. “Mathew threatened you? You should leave right away. I can walk you back to the dorm.”Henry had a calm expression on his face. “It’s fine. What can he do to me, anyway.”Even though he was known as a trash collector on campus, Henry knew that Mathew, no matter how rich was not up to his standard. He was a direct descendant of the Parker family after all. In the eyes of Jacob and the others, Mathew was a very wealthy and powerful young man whom they could not afford to offend. However, in front of Henry, Mathew was no different from an

Nate had ensured that all that Henry needed was at his beg and call. This was to ensure that Henry didn’t have a tough life like before and to also track him and keep him safe. There were drivers stationed around him to follow him whenever he needed help. There were also trained security guards watching. The men weren’t dressed in security outfits so one could actually know they were guards. Meanwhile, the Bentley wasn’t even Henry’s car. It was one of Nate’s vehicles which he had given to Henry to use until he decided to get his vehicle. Mathew was still stunned because, to him, Henry was some loser like Jacob and his other roommates. Jean was at a corner, trying to get a hail a cab. Henry walked past Mathew and got into the car. He mounted the driver’s seat and pulled up right in front of Jean. “Can I please give you a ride?” Henry demanded with his head stuck out of the car. Jean sighed. Henry gave her a pleading look. “Please.”She sighed and walked up to the car. She then

Back in his room, Benedict was very pleased with himself. He noticed the way Jean’s smile broadened on his screen. He had already concluded that she was a woman who could be bought with a lot of money. Ever since he broke up with Bella, Benedict had been looking for a replacement. He had seen Jean a couple of times and was infatuated by her so he followed her social media handles and discovered that she had a live podcast show. Donating the sports car gift with a value of 1 thousand dollars was one of Benedict’s mapped-out plans for wooing Jean. He wanted her to see him. He wanted to get her more gifts and eventually get her phone number. Then, he’ll give her rides in his luxury car, take her shopping and she’ll be his girlfriend. That was Benedict’s ultimate plan. Suddenly, the streamers began to drop comments and when Jean looked at it, she was stunned. Mr. Red had donated a sports car, again. The streamers couldn’t stop blabbering over Mr. Red’s generosity. Others were reques
