DESTINED TO BE A BILLIONAIRE Chapter 57
While the manager resolved to work on Henry’s transaction papers, Regina was at a corner, too shocked to speak. A few moments later, Cindy came hurrying toward Henry with a rag. She had tied an apron that Henry had seen with one of the janitors. Cindy stood before Henry with a nervous smile. “I’ve cleaned up all the stains and I can guarantee that there are no more stains.”Henry nodded and threw something at her. Cindy caught it. It was a hundred dollars. “Just a tip.” He said. “Thank you for your hard work.”Cindy couldn’t utter a word. She was completely embarrassed by Henry’s tip and when she lifted her head, she saw the way her coworkers were gawking at her. She presented the money back to Henry. “I don’t want this.”“Everyone, get back to work,” Cindy instructed the senior staff. The staff went about their duties while Regina lingered around the staircase, waiting for the manager. Henry didn’t take the money. He leaned on the counter and asked. “Then what do you want?”To

Henry mounted the driver’s seat of his new car and threw his bag pack in the back seat. He started the car and drove straight to school then he swerved down to the dormitory. When Henry drove to the front of his dormitory, the area was almost empty. Only a few people were walking around. It was past 10 pm. Henry grabbed his back, locked the car, and went to his dorm room after parking it. When Henry stepped into the room, all his roommates were asleep, he dumped his bag on the bed, took a hot bath, and retired for the night. ****Henry pressed his eyes against each other and slowly opened them. His eyes caught the ray of sunlight penetrating the room through the open window but it was not what awakened him. He was woken up by a loud noise. Berry was beside Henry’s bed. He began to use all his strength to force Henry to wake up. “Get up. You have to see something.”“Don’t push me too hard, Berry. You’re making me dizzy.” Henry cried out. He sat up and rubbed his eyes with the back

The boys made their way into the dormitory with arms around each other’s shoulders. They took their baths in a hurry, got dressed up, and came running out.“I’m sitting right next to Henry in front,” Berry said, going ahead of the group. He quickly pulled out his phone and threw it at Dalton. “I need you to take pictures of me.”Henry’s phone began to ring. He moved to a corner to respond to the call and two minutes after he left, some group of boys showed up and were hovering like flies around his car.“Why are you guys surrounding my car?” Berry cried out rudely.Some of the students who were just acquainted with the car quickly moved away on the assumption that Berry was the owner of the car while the ones who knew him were quick to mock him.“Berry, I never knew that you could act so pretentiously.” Someone said.The others laughed.“Get away from my car. I don’t want losers around my property.” Berry maintained while trying to shoo them with his hands.Jacob and Dalton exchanged

Henry drove the car outside the school perimeter and took the straight path ahead. Apart from Jean, the other girls were also analyzing the situation, wondering whether the car was Henry’s since he was behind the wheel.“Whose car is this?” Courtney asked.“It’s Henry’s car,” Berry replied proudly.“What?” the girls exclaimed except Jean.Jacob was feeling quite uncomfortable in his heart. His family had not bought him a car yet and even if they do, it won’t be a luxurious car like Henry’s. He felt more uncomfortable when he realized that Aida seemed elated.“Henry!” Aida called out. “Did you win a lottery?”Henry gave a half smile, said nothing, and took a sharp turn.Berry turned to Aida. “You think that this is lottery money? That won’t be enough. Let me tell you, Henry has tens of millions.”Henry wished he could get Berry to shut up. Perhaps, sharing the information about his identity with Berry was a bad idea.The girls looked stunned.When Aida looked at Henry from the back, sh

When Rufus pushed open the door that led into the suite he had reserved for the group, everyone felt like they had entered the Garden of Eden. The entire surrounding gave the feeling of a natural forest and the plants stood tall like a bamboo forest. Cute white rabbits were running on the grass and right in front of everyone was a lake.None of them had ever thought that there was a suite like an island in Star Moon. There was a huge table in the center of the room carved out of the finest Amazon wood. The room was surrounded by a transparent glass wall. From the lake, one could see the city because the suite was at the top of the skyscraper.It was a typical paradise on earth and everyone was shocked. After a long time, they began to cry out, exclaiming over the beauty of the suite. Rufus was pleased by the looks on their faces. His whole aim was to please Henry and his friends and it was working.Rufus then cleared his throat loudly and they all turned toward him. “The conditions h

“What are you guys talking about?” Aida asked after taking an aggressive bite from her red apple.Jean took a sip from her warm milk. “Ancient clothes.” She crossed her legs.Courtney sat by the edge of the enormous bouncy bed. “What’s so good about ancient clothes anyway?”Jean wanted to reply but Aida was already speaking.“Since there’s a lake here, I was wondering if you could come with us to have fun.” She turned in the direction of the boys and darted her gaze back to Henry with a smile. “Your friends seem to enjoying breakfast so maybe we should have fun in the lake.”Courtney took over. “Yes. Since it’s easy to get anything here, you can just have the servants bring us some bikinis.”Jean grabbed a plate of berries.Meanwhile, Dalton could hear the girls and he was irked by the fact that Aida and Courtney wanted Henry to see them in bikinis.“There’s no need. I no longer have time for the lake.” Henry smiled.Dalton let out a chuckle.Henry fixated his gaze on Jean. “I think y

“Are you crazy? Can’t you watch you’re going?”When Henry lifted his head, he saw a middle-aged man gawking at him. It was the man he had bumped into. The man’s ferocious eyes felt like sharp knives on Henry’s body.As far as Henry was concerned, the man was at fault because he left the door to the restroom open. The man began to hurl insults at Henry and when Henry tried to ignore him and walk past, the man wouldn’t move away.The middle-aged man was drunk.“Shut the fuck up. Your mouth stinks.” Henry fired back.“Fuck!” the man yelled. His eyes were bloodshot and they looked as if he had been drinking all year round.The man clenched his fist and threw a punch at Henry but unfortunately, he had been drinking so his stamina was in no way compared to Henry’s. Henry moved away and the helpless punch landed in thin air.Before the man could reinforce another punch, Henry bent his upper body and kicked the man on the tummy with his knee. The man bent over like a shrimp and tried to stret

As far as Bella knew, Coral Group is worth about 30 billion dollars. How could Henry get the CEO of such a huge company in such a cruel situation?Henry turned to the chief guard. “Seize that man and break his legs and as for that woman.” He looked at Bella with a malicious stare. She instantly fell to her knees and began to beg. “Henry, I’m so sorry. I swear to God if you let me go, I would never provoke you.”While the guards grabbed Bella’s godfather, he wouldn’t shut up. “You dared to arrest the CEO of Coral Group? Who are you?” the man was shocked and angry. The man went on shouting but the security guards did not care. Since Henry had given the orders, they swung into action. The man and his bodyguards were bundled and forced to the ground.Henry towered before the man. “You don’t deserve to know who I am. You just have to know that I’m someone you can’t mess with.” He was about to leave when he turned around with his index finger raised. “Also, tell Mathew to enjoy the last

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

Henry had no deep understanding of music or performances, but he recognized the value of shows for upcoming celebrities.Their popularity was growing rapidly.he decided to hold a show for them in his grand five-star hotelInviting important guests all around the cityHe did it before for the gala night.He could do it again. “They’ll have what they need. 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. Did you even know that he is also the owner of the Cloud Haven building and all the mining stations in Marian city?” Lena one of the trainers asked.The shoo
