As Henry walked down the street, he caught sight of a familiar face of a woman. He instantly hid himself behind a car, just in case he might get spotted.

'What the hell??'' he was surprised to know it was William's wife, Isabella Wellington, she entering a restaurant with another man.

Henry knew that William's world would come crashing down once he learns his wife was cheating on him.

Henry let out a smirk as he pulled out his phone from his pocket to take a picture. It was an evidence that he could use against William and Isabella, who had been making him their scapegoat.

''Let's see if you can still enslave me,'' Henry was already tired of being abused in the mansion, always at the beck and call of the Wellington family. But things were going to change and they would be the ones groveling.

Henry then chose to spend the afternoon going back to the Ravenstone mansion to relax where he could eat delicious food at the table without having his hand getting slapped.

    Henry walked across the mansions garden, searching for the motorcycle. He spotted it parked nearby and noticed Gregory Henderson, William's cousin, gazing at it. His attention was drawn to the lavish Arnikus Nemesis X, worth a staggering $12 million."Wow...this motorcycle has a powerful engine with extreme performance. Who the f*ck owns this??'' Gregory had been long dreaming of buying the motorcycle, and he caressed it."Excuse me," he turned around and saw Henry fiddling with a key on his finger. ''And why would I move away??' He asked, looking at Henry with his hands in his pockets, leaning against the motorcycle. "Don't you know this is mine?" Gregory acted as if he owned it, thinking he could fool Henry into assuming he owned George's vehicle. Henry sighed, pushing him out of the way. ''I have no time to joke around with you, Gregory.'' He put on the black helmet and as he sat, he slowly let out the clutch lever until it started to roll forward. Gregory was left puzzled, wonde

    In Henry and butler Mr. Nolan Howard's conversation, it was raised as a possibility that he could be a bridge for a business proposal to Mr. Thompson, considering that they have a close relationship and he can effectively communicate and negotiate on behalf of the Wellington family."I'm just a son-in-law. They won't listen to anything I have to say. They think I'm an idiot who knows nothing but to obey whatever they want." Henry shook his head, reminiscing about the times when he would voice his opinions and be told to shut up because his words were worthless."George once told me that you're not just a son-in-law. There's something more to you than meets the eye. George saw potential in you, and he was never wrong about his words." Mr. Howard tried to uplift him while Henry gave a bitter smile.Little did Mr. Howard know that what George told him before were Henry's own words."What about you, Mr. Howard? Do you see anything special in me?" Henry asked, curious about how other peopl

He was accused of framing her and was suspected of wanting to ruin the reputation of William Wellington, who had a past connection to George Thompson."You got yourself into this, Henry, so face it."

Clifford Constantine, a young man in his early thirties, with a confused expression on his face, looked back at Henry."Who are you?" Clifford asked, his voice firm but laced with a hint of uncertainty.Henry took a deep breath, trying to composed himself. He had traveled back in time to 2006, a year that was etched in his memory as a pivotal moment in his father's life.

Henry mumbled. The man's expression turned puzzled, "I don't know anyone by that name. You're in the town square and you fainted."

But I'm not going to tolerate any lies or deceit. You just brainwashed my cousins brain." he dissed. Henry nodded, "It's a long story, but I'll try to keep the brief. So it all started because off this watch. Or should I call the Quantum Reverie watch, this is an extraordinary device that allows me to switch identities with only one persona. It's a tool I've been using to correct some wrongs in my past." he began. "And I have chose your identity because we share a similar fate. We both have families that were wronged in some way.

It's been getting harder to switch personas." "That's not good, Henry. We badly need to get into this computer if we're going to find any clues about their disappearance." Tristan said.

    The stormy night had turned the deserted road into a battlefield. Henry and Tristan were fighting for their lives against the shadow syndicate hunters.

Tristan continued to maneuvered the car with precision, he took sharp turns and dodge the bullets while Henry was above the din of the battle. "I'm trying, Henry!" Tristan shouted, his knuckles turning white as he gripped on the steering wheel. The syndicate's numbers seemed endless and Henry's bullets were running low. He reached for a spare but his pocket was empty. "Tris, I'm out of ammo," Henry said. Tristan's eyes darted to the rear view mirror where he saw the syndicate's vehicles closing in. "Oh no. I'm out of bullets too. Our only option is to get out of here." he exclaimed. Henry's hand instinctively went to his wrist, where his Quantum Reverie watch glowed with a soft blue light. He act

    "I'm not sure I need your help." Henry said. "You're not exactly in a position to turn down assistance, Henry. We've heard about the capabilities of your watch. We are willing to help you protect it and yourself." Henry's eyes flickered toward Tristan, who raised an eyebrow in warning. "Henry, they may be trustworthy but be cautious, but don't let them take the watch. Try to befriend them and use them as a backup when the shadow syndicate attacks." Henry's eyes refocused on the bounty hunters and he forced a hesitant smile, "I appreciate your offer. But can I ask, what's in it for you?" Other bounty hunter shrugged, "We're not in it for the money, Henry. We're in it for the thrill of the hunt. And taking down the shadow syndicate would be a feather in our caps." Tristan's eyes narrowed, his confusion evident. "Henry, what are you doing?" he whispered. Henry's response was a subtle shrug as he engaged the bounty hunters in conversation.
