“Yes. We need to stop the bleeding.” Said Chelsea who didn’t move an inch away from the scene. Jean noticed that the more Henry wiped away the blood with napkins, the more it flowed. She gritted her teeth and reached for the end of her dress. She tore it and swung into action.Jean began to tie up Henry’s wound with her torn dress. After ensuring that she had stopped the bleeding, she looked up to Henry. “You need to get to the school clinic very quickly.”Henry nodded and began to feel helpless. The wound was not as minor as he portrayed it. Looking at it, it needed to be stitched. “This is too much!” Berry cried out. “Henry has to take revenge on Mathew.”Chelsea and Jean cleared the way for Henry to pass. While Chelsea ensured that the students made way for Henry, Jean was helping him regain his balance because Henry was starting to feel dizzy.Soon, the canteen path was cleared and Henry was on his way to the school clinic. While Chelsea and Jean were on his sides, Berry and D

Henry’s heart skipped a beat and a bad premonition suddenly hit him. It was very likely that Chelsea had been caught by Mathew. Henry turned to Dalton with a clenched fist. “If Mathew dares hurt Chelsea then he’ll get the miserable death I promised him.”Dalton was anxious. “Did Chelsea get kidnapped? We need to reach Berry. Maybe he was able to find her.”Henry pulled out his phone. “I’ll call Berry.” He then dialed Berry’s number and placed it on speaker. The phone kept ringing but there was no response. Dalton’s fear heightened. Henry frowned and dialed the number again but this time, he was informed that Berry’s phone was switched off. Henry had no choice but to imagine the worst-case scenario. Not only Chelsea was caught but Berry too. When Dalton learned that Berry’s line was no longer accessible, he began to tremble in fear. He dared not imagine what kind of harm Berry and Chelsea would suffer at the hands of Mathew. “What should we do, Henry?”Henry’s expression was mixed

Steven dares not offend Henry not after causally receiving 30,000 dollars. He was already having doubts about Henry’s identity and the last thing he wanted to do was cause himself any trouble. He quickly stood up and waved his hand. “It’s not like I don’t want to help you with the investigation.” Steven then shook his head. “The problem is that my computer model is too old so the configuration does not allow the service you need. Henry felt helpless. “Why don’t you send the location you just picked to my phone number.” He said and passed his phone to Steven. Steven took Henry’s phone and after a few swipes and punching, he handed it back to Henry. “I’ve linked your device with the computer tracker.” Henry took his phone and dashed out with Dalton. When they stepped out, Henry turned to Dalton. “Why don’t you stay in the dormitory? I’ll go find Berry and Chelsea. “What?” Dalton flared up. “There’s no way I’m allowing you to go there all by yourself.”“Look.” Henry moved closer. “

“Mathew was right. The boy has nerves just because he’s worth a hundred thousand dollars” One of the boys who was still holding onto Henry said. A hundred thousand dollars? Henry wondered. What the hell was Mathew driving at? He felt that Mathew had underestimated him. As the dignified heir of the Parker family, it would be a joke to tell anyone that he was worth a hundred thousand dollars. “What if I give you ten times the money?” Henry blurted. Silence swept through every corner of the room. “Let go of my classmates and then you’ll have the money,” Henry added. One of the boys slowly released Henry’s arm. “10 times the money? That will be a million dollars.” He gasped. “You think that we are stupid?” the leader barked. The guard who had earlier let go of Henry quickly tightened his grip around him. “How can a poor student like you boast of so much money?” the boss screamed at Henry’s face. “That’s right.” The other boy who said nothing spoke. “We’ve already accepted Math

“What?” screamed a shocked Henry. He was now worried that Scott had lied to him. Before he transferred the 3 million dollars, he had categorically explained that both of his classmates were in custody. “I swear to God. I’m not lying.” Scott quickly replied as if he just read Henry’s mind. “We are only in the custody of one of them,” Scott said. “Why would I lie to you after accepting to betray Mathew?”Henry was lost. Could it be that Mathew had sent two groups of people to capture Chelsea and Berry individually?Berry, who was standing by the side kept staring at Henry helplessly. It occurred to Henry that the seal tape was preventing Berry from saying what he knew. He quickly walked up to Berry and tore the tape. Berry swallowed and began to speak. “Chelsea should be fine. These people took me right after I showed up. They brought me straight here. They didn’t go to look for Chelsea.”“We didn’t come in contact with the girl you mentioned. The orders were to capture him.” Scott m

Although Berry was saved by Henry, he was still confused. As far as he was concerned, Mathew’s men had captured him and were ready to cripple Henry until things took an unexpected turn. “It’s very simple.” Henry began. “Mathew paid some goons to catch Berry so that they could lure me in. I was the one that they wanted so I paid them more than Mathew did so that I wouldn’t be harmed.” He added with a smile.Berry and Dalton were silent. They knew that Mathew must have paid the thugs a lot of money and now, Henry had bribed them with a higher amount. How much did that cost him?Meanwhile, Berry was slightly shaking. He had not yet recovered from the fear of being kidnapped. He moved to the edge of his bed and sat on it. The way Henry had treated Mathew’s subordinate also scared him. The more he thought about it, the more confused he was about Henry’s identity. Was he a garbage collector or a billionaire playing pretend? Henry turned to Berry. “I’m so sorry that you went through this

“200,000 thousand? Is that all?” Henry said with a bright smile. As far as he was concerned, that was very cheap. He put his hand inside his bag and pulled out the exact amount. He placed it on the counter and tossed it towards her after a wink. The beautiful young woman took the cash and jumped down from her stool with a smile. “Boy, wait for me for a minute.” She then walked away. Henry reached for his glass of wine and took a sip as he waited on the beauty. He wasn’t the kind of person that would want to cause suffering to anyone but since Mathew had stepped on his toes, he was ready to prove to him that he was someone that couldn’t be trifled with. Meanwhile, Henry was skeptical about being the first to exert revenge on Mathew maybe until he had initiated another move. Coming to the Eye of Dark Knight center was his first move in counter-attacking. Mathew was an arrogant heir who relied on his family’s prominence and wealth to survive. If his family name was put aside, he was

An heir like Mathew had enjoyed the most luxurious life ever since he was young. Henry was sure that once his money ran out, Mathew would be lost about any hope of recovering. If Henry makes his family bankrupt by denying them the loan, Mathew could be transferred from the high and mighty man to a beggar. This kind of change in status was like sending him to hell. Henry folded the paper the way he had pulled it. He placed it back in the envelope and slipped it inside his bag. Then, he stood up. “I need to leave. I’m sure I’ll come back here in the future.”The woman pouted her lips like a child’s and blinked repeatedly. “You’re leaving now? Don’t you want to sit a little longer? I’ll be quite all lonely by myself if you go.” She said. Henry sighed and crashed on the stool. She was smiling very brightly now and the more she smiled, the warmer he felt. Since he had nothing to do in school, Henry felt there was no harm if he sat back and chatted with the beautiful woman.“How should I

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

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
