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

Primary school students should not steal their parent’s money and pretend to be rich. Benedict wrote. It was a mocking statement directed at Free Bird. Benedict thought Jean was a property he could just buy without considering her feelings. On her end, Jean felt that if she didn’t acknowledge Benedict’s generous donation, she would make a lot of people mad since he had given out the money publicly. While she was still in her dilemma, she saw her comment section bursting with reactions and comments. The donation section had just received a new entry. When Jean saw the donation, she froze. Someone had just donated 10 yatch. Everyone was stunned. Jean wondered whether she was hallucinating. 10 yachts meant 100,000 thousand dollars. This is way too much she thought.More girls began to bombard Free Bird’s timeline, begging for his phone number. While everyone was still basking in the outstanding donation of Free Bird, he dropped 10 more yachts in the comment section. “No way!” Jean

“Okay.” Jean nodded after reading Free Bird’s comment. She then played music. Her red lips parted and she began to hum according to the melody. Jean began to sing. She was singing a love song. The atmosphere of the live podcast was stirred. Everyone was generous with their rewards and all kinds of small gifts filled the screen. Jean looked down at her screen and saw the bursting virtual reactions and donations flying around. She was moved by their generosity and sang with much intensity from her heart.Meanwhile, Jean’s live podcast had accumulated thousands of streamers and donations, causing it to top the charts for podcast of the week. All thanks to Henry and Benedict of cause. At the end of the podcast, Jean thanked her streamers as usual. She was curious about what kind of person Free Bird was so she messaged him through his handle and dropped her phone number. She was looking forward to having the chance to contact him in the future. Henry got the message. It read: I just

Back in his dormitory, Henry lay on his back on the bed. He was about to fall into a snooze when the door was pushed open. Berry walked in. Berry rushed toward Henry and settled by the edge of his bed. “Are you alright Henry? I hope Mathew didn’t do anything to you?”When Mathew followed Jean and Henry outside, the boys were restless and when he returned, he just grabbed his things and left after asking his boys to keep an eye on Jacob’s team. Jacob and the others were watched by Mathew’s boys so they didn’t dare to move. It was after Mathew left the bar that the boys were free. Henry sat up. “I’m fine. I swear I’m fine.”“How did you escape? And Jean? What happened to her?”Suddenly, Jacob and Dalton walked in, bearing worried expressions. Jacob sighed in relief when he noticed that Henry was in one piece. “Jean is fine. I escorted her back to her dormitory.” Henry said. His roommates noticed that he was very relaxed so they felt at ease. Meanwhile, Mathew’s boys had threatened

As the head of the science department at Marylyn University, Robert had the power to control the lives of poor students. He had even forced lots of female students to have a relationship with him. The scandal had spread around the school like wildfire but no one did anything about it. While some girls were quiet about the ordeal, others slipped into depression while some were forced to drop out of school. Whenever Robert sees a girl with low grades, he threatens her and in exchange for getting her cleared, Bulldog demands sex. Robert was simply a beast, a scum bag as most of the students referred to him. He was a despicable person who had no moral line. If he had no personal connections with the school management, he wouldn’t have cheered the science department for such a long time. While he was trying to gather money to purchase a phone for Bella, Henry missed some of his classes. When he saw Robbert’s call, he concluded that he was going to get a query because his attendance was

“What I mean is that you better not interfere with my matters in the future. Just pretend that you never said anything or else, you might be fired.” Henry said. He was staring at Bulldog straight in the face and his voice was etched with confidence. Bulldog was completely amused by Henry’s words. He took off his glasses and dumped it on the table. Henry could see the shock in his eyes. “You’re joking. Young man, how dare you threaten me?”Henry said nothing. With his vicious eyes piercing through Henry’s green eyes, the furious Bulldog continued. “Don’t you know what’s good for you? You know what? You only have today to send me the money otherwise I’ll not only ensure you fail my course but I’ll directly expel you from the department.”In Bulldog’s opinion, not only was Henry poor, but he was also very stupid. He had threatened Henry with an expulsion because it was the worst-case scenario any student could face. “I’ve told you not to threaten me but if you continue to be so pers

After donating 300 million dollars, Henry was on the verge of becoming the chief board of directors of Marylyn University. Suddenly, one of the Vice chancellor’s secretaries walked in.“Smith? Where the hell were you? Hurry up. Go get this student some tea.” The V.C. told the Secretary Smith was about to dash out when the V.C. spoke. “Don’t serve him the conventional tea we serve our guests. Get him something more classy. He’s the director.”Henry noticed how V.C. Fella’s attitude toward him had quickly changed.“Please, director. Take a seat.” V.C. Fella pointed at the sofa beside his table.Henry settled there.C Fella hummed. “I don’t know how to address you. Pardon my manners. What’s your name?” he was smiling so brightly that Henry thought his cheeks would hurt.The Vice-Chancellor began to study Henry. Irrespective of what he wore, he was the son of a rich family because not any random student could give out 300 million dollars so easily.“My name is Henry Parker.”“Good name!”

Henry was moved by Berry’s act of kindness. As for Dalton and Jacob, he wouldn’t blame them. After all, they had no idea about his real identity.Besides, it was unfortunate for the heir of the Parker family to receive help from outside so it was a good thing that they weren’t willing to help Henry.“It’s okay Berry. I don’t plan to give Bulldog any money.” Henry replied. “He dared to say that he was going to expel me. I can’t wait to get him dismissed.” Henry added with a smirk.“What? Do you think you can have Bulldog fired? Are you crazy?” said Jacob.“You don’t even sound realistic Henry.” Berry chipped in. “Bulldog is the head of a department. The man has so much power and influence otherwise, none of us will be so afraid of him.”“I also learned that he’s related to one of the school officials. A higher one.” Dalton told them.“You see!” Jacob opened his palms before Henry in his bid to prove his point. “We are not talking about some random stuff here and besides, you’re not the

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
