DESTINED TO BE A BILLIONAIRE Chapter 194
Greenville was a small town and the occupants knew each other so news about the demolition was now an agenda in the town.Henry nodded and said nothing.Micheal concluded that Henry was very worried about the matter that’s why he couldn’t even comment on it.“Don’t be anxious.” Micheal started the comfort Henry. “Didn’t people on the old street go to confront the developers? Be positive. I’m sure that there’ll be changes.”Henry nodded again. “It’s just about time. Everything will be fixed once the ownership of the Holiday real estate company changes hands.”Micheal looked at Henry with a quirked brow. His confusion was growing. Were the developers planning to sell their company? Micheal could not imagine that. Everyone knew Ryan Holiday as a big sky that could cover the entire town with his glory and the company was his fortress.Henry saw Micheal looking at him with a blank expression so he smiled and patted him on the shoulder. “Why don’t we look at the cars first?”“Right!” Michea

Micheal flipped the card and turned to Henry and Kelvin with disbelief in his eyes. He felt as if he was living in a dreamland.How did Henry, a trash collector buy a car worth a million dollars? Wondered Micheal. He looked intensely at Henry again and concluded that he had underestimated the value of Henry’s clothes and cologne. If he had imagined that Henry’s life turned better, it was now evident that it changed for the better.Henry cleared his throat loudly and stretched his hand toward Micheal. “My card, please.”Micheal passed the card to Henry with a trembling hand. He was tempted to ask Henry where he got so much money from. Throughout his years of working at the car shop, Micheal had barely saved 50,000 dollars so he couldn’t help but wonder what kind of job Henry had in Marylyn.Originally, Micheal felt a sense of superiority before Henry but now that the transaction was complete, the sense of superiority instantly became that of inferiority.Micheal’s heart was instantly f
DESTINED TO BE A BILLIONAIRE Chapter 1: SCAVENGER
Marylyn University possessed a silence at dawn that stretches towards every corner of the school, especially during the weekends but when students are up, it’s always a hustle and bustle, accompanied by squeals, rush hours, and excitements.Today was the Dragon boat race so the students took advantage of the free day to sleep till later in the day when the event would take place. However, not all students were asleep during the early hours of that morning.The A students who seized every opportunity to study were on their way to the study halls while some of the school’s sub-staff were kicking off with their duties.Two petites bearing the same blonde hair were on their way to the study hall when one of them noticed a male student hurrying toward the school entrance.With his hands tucked inside his pockets and his face slightly buried inside the black hoodie he wore, he continued hurrying toward the school entrance ensuring his long legs were serving their purpose.One of the girls w

Bella continued.“Isn’t it obvious that you and I are from distant worlds? And by the way, I’m with Benedict now.” She flipped her hair.After a few moments of silence provoked by shock, Henry spoke. “I can see it’s because of the money.” He then let out a bitter laugh.Bella giggled. “If you had any of that then maybe this wouldn’t have happened. I can’t pretend. I don’t want to be with a low life like you, Henry,” She said.On his part, Henry had dreaded that this day would come because he always thought that their relationship wouldn’t last. After she agreed to be his girlfriend, Bella had warned him to keep it discreet, and as far as he was concerned, only Daisy was aware of their relationship.Henry stared at the phone and pressed his lips to a thin line. He sighed and pondered about blaming Bella.Who would want to date a scavenger? He thought. The ridicule must have got to her and maybe she couldn’t bear it anymore.He looked at her in disbelief.Bella folded her arms across h
DESTINED TO BE A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 3: TOO MUCH MONEY
Henry could choose not to work and spend his money on a lavish lifestyle. His inheritance could last for the rest of his life. In fact, there were certain heirs in the Parker family across several generations who chose not to work but lived a lavish lifestyle for the rest of their lives.However, the elders noticed that the family tradition was fading because instead of working hard to expand the empire, some of the heirs chose to squander their wealth so a new order was instilled.A competition was initiated among the heirs to determine who would be the head of the family in every generation of the Parker family for a fixed time and successors had the right to compete for a reelection.The criterion that one must fulfill to become the head of the family is to use his inheritance to generate high value so the person who invests his wealth and generates more value is made supreme heir. Henry had considered this before leaving home.Henry has two competitions in the family that is if he
DESTINED TO BE A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 4: THE PARKER VOUCHER
Stacey concluded that even if Henry wanted to keep a low profile with the kind of money he was claiming to have, he wouldn’t be dressed in those rags.“Are you telling me your assets are worth 100 million dollars?” Stacey demanded in disbelief. Henry shook his head. “100 million is too little. It should be around 10 billion at least.”10 billion was what the other heirs got each. Stacey was rendered speechless. Henry said nothing.She sighed after a brief moment of silence and palmed her forehead. “There must be a limit to making this up don’t you think?”Henry wanted to speak but Stacey didn’t let him for she had begun to rant.“How many people will dare to say they have 1oo million dollars and then here you are, claiming to have about 10 billion?”Henry sighed. There was no point arguing with Stacey. After all, she wasn’t the first person to look down on him. He simply raised his head and began to roll his eyes around the reception then his gaze was fixated on the door with the VI
DESTINED TO BE A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 5: THE STEWARD
“Of course.” Mr. Falls stated firmly.“I want to initiate a transaction for the transfer of assets and I would love to withdraw some cash,” Henry said. “Also, I’ll need responses because I’ve got some questions to ask. This is my first time doing this.” He added.Mr. Falls arched a brow. “And how much in total are we talking about?”Henry cocked his head. “I think 10 billion dollars.”Mr. Falls sprung from his chair. It was the second time he had done that. The first time was when he saw the voucher. He began to stammer.“10 billion? Mr. Parker that’s way above our pay grade and since the inception of this bank, I’m not sure if a transaction has occurred.”Henry said nothing.“Why don’t you give me a moment?” Mr. Falls requested and quickly pulled out his phone from one of the table cabinets. “Let me give the CEO a call.”Henry nodded in agreement. Mr. Falls stood up and quickly dashed out.Meanwhile, Stacey was holding a small tray with a cup of coffee on it and was headed towards Mr
DESTINED TO BE A BILLIONAIRE Chapter 6: THE VAULT
Henry couldn’t hide his excitement. “Uncle Nate!” he kept calling out. He felt so happy to see someone very close to him after a lot of years.“Why are you here?” Henry asked. He knew that the Parkers and their allies don’t just see up anywhere except there was an exception.Nate Parker has been Henrys fathers’ steward for 27 years. It was after Henry parent’s suddenly died that he resigned and left the family. Henry was one of the few people that felt strongly toward him.“I’m now the CEO of the City Bank Marylyn branch,” Nate revealed with a smile.Henry was astonished.Nate winked. “Young man, I guess you must be wondering how an old man like me became the President of City Bank.”Henry didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He had fond memories of Nate as a kind person and now that he was old, Henry could decipher from his consistent winks that he still doesn’t take things seriously just like old times.Henry sat up. “Uncle Nate, I’m very curious but I don’t know if it’s convenient

Kelvin and Henry finally settled for a business car which was spacious enough to accommodate twenty passengers. “Let’s go and get it,” Henry said and stood up. Kelvin raised an eyebrow. “Wait, you mean right now?”“Don’t worry about the urgency,” Henry replied with a smile. He went to the kitchen and instructed Hailey to look after the children then he went to meet Kelvin by the door. There was only one car shop in the entire city. So instead of going in his car, Henry requested that they walk to the spot. “It’s a way of exercising.” He had said. As they made their way toward the car store, Henry looked at the old street carefully. The more he studied the area, the more he realized that it was tearing into pieces and the environment felt odd for him. He had three years’ worth of memory there and he couldn’t help but imagine how the neighbors who were forced out of the area felt despite being attached to the place all their lives. “You bought all the houses. What are you going to

Chapter 192The other men opened their eyes and when they saw Betty and Tiny Tim in the room, they began to tremble with fear. They were so scared that they wet themselves on the bed. Henry had already explained to Betty and Tiny Tim their role at the hospital. Kyiv was so scared that his whole body was trembling. The sight of Betty and Tiny Tim in the room instantly gave him post-traumatic stress disorder. It was barely two days after their last encounter. Betty giggled and moved closer to Kyiv. “I’m not here to teach you a lesson. Our employer ordered us to come here because he had something to tell you.”After hearing that they weren’t there to finish him off as he expected, Kyiv heaved several sighs of relief. “Go ahead!” He said. Betty folded her arms across her chest and began. “My employer sends his sympathy. We heard that Ryan Holiday abandoned you guys. Although you guys offended my employer’s family in the past, he had always been clear about his intentions. Your boss ha

In the future, Henry was going to return to his biological family and by that time, he’d be further away from his Greenville family so he needed to empower them as soon as he could. As long as he could support Kelvin to take charge of the family, Henry knew that he could be anywhere and his mind would be at ease. The Holiday Real Estate Company was considered a top company in Greenville. If Kelvin controls such a company, ordinary people would not be able to offend him hence the Potter family would remain safe so that’s why Henry wanted to secure the spot. After Kelvin agreed, Henry turned to Betty. “You know what to do.”Betty stood up and cleaned her hands with a napkin. “Yes sir.” She nodded and left. ***The entire Holiday real estate company was in a mess. Even though the people at the old street were gone, Ryan had stationed guards around the company because the people might return at any time. All the employees were forced to sleep over at work that night. Even though it wa

When Henry woke up the next day, he was greeted by the events that took place at the Holiday real estate site. According to Kelvin, the neighbors on the old street who protested had an intense conflict with the employers of the company. Although Ryan had threatened the photographers and reporters from taking multimedia clips of the situation, the people did their job and as it stands, everything that was captured had been uploaded on the internet. “Look!” Kelvin said and passed his phone to Henry.When Henry watched the video, he broke into an intense laughter. There was no denying that the conflict was a heated one. These were the same people who had hidden in the past but now, every one of them was as powerful as a mad tiger; all thanks to the 2 million dollars Henry had promised each of them. In the video, Henry saw how the people roared and shook the gates violently. The employees of the company could not stop them at all. Amidst the confusion and chaos, the protesters pushed t

After the people were gone, Kelvin turned to Henry. “I agree with what you’ve done. It will be difficult for them to reverse the agreement but they can go ahead and try. These people are very hateful. Where were they when we were fighting the developers? Now they finally dare to fight back because of the 2 million they could get?” Kelvin spat and shook his head with contempt. Henry smiled and turned to the children. “Come, let’s get inside.”Kelvin and Hailey led everyone into the house. Although Mr. Potter’s house was in a bad state, the area of the house was not small. There were cracks on the wall and the paintings had faded but there was enough space for the children to sleep and play around. Kelvin took the children to their rooms to make their beds and do their morning chores which they couldn’t do earlier due to the excitement of having breakfast at a fancy restaurant.Hailey noticed the way Henry was surveying the living room. She walked up to him. “The place is old and sma

Kyiv was the most disappointed among the group. He had served Ryan Holiday for so many years and he had been working extra hard to prove himself. It was the demolition; a project handed over to him by Ryan himself that made him crippled but Ryan didn’t just refuse to pay for his treatment. He also dumped him. Kyiv shut his eyes and took a deep breath. “Ryan, I curse you and all your generations to come.” He screamed out of despair.***Henry and the children were done having breakfast. They were now on their way back to their home on the old street. When the cars pulled toward the house, Henry and the others saw a large group of people blocking the entrance. As they drove closer to the house, June turned to Henry. “I don’t know what these people are looking for so we should avoid them.”Henry pulled down the reflectors and looked closely at the group. He turned to June with a calm expression. “Don’t worry. They are all neighbors of the old street.”The cars finally came to a halt an

After getting his teeth extracted, Ryan had an artificial one placed back there and immediately after he walked out of the clinic, he reached out for his phone and placed a call to his favorite subordinate.“Kyiv, where are you now!” Ryan yelled over the phone after his call was responded to. Kyiv was Ryan’s most loyal and capable subordinate. With the help of Kyiv, Ryan was able to achieve a lot of operations not worthy of mentioning. Kyiv sighed over the phone. “I need you to get your ass over here!” Ryan went on yelling. “I have a job for you.” As far as Ryan was concerned, only a man like Kyiv could handle Henry. Meanwhile, Kyiv’s voice was calm. “I’m in an emergency room at the hospital right now.” He replied and groaned afterward. Ryan was surprised when he heard Kyiv moaning over the phone in pain. “Which hospital is that and why are you in an emergency room in the first place ?” Ryan asked. “The community dispensary on Barett Street,” Kyiv responded. Ryan immediately h
