The two huddled don't he computer screen in front of them, Henry was typing in the keyboard, trying to access George Thompson's computer but to no avail.

"Come one, I've acceseed this computer countless times before but why won't it work now?" Henry muttered.

Tristan watched Henry tries to attempt, "When did the watch starting to malfunction? I'm just curious of what's going on?"

Henry's eyes dropped to the pocket watch dangling from his waistcoat, "I'm afraid so, Tristan. I've been having some trouble with it lately. 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.

Henry's gaze snapped back to the computer screen. "I'll try again and again. I have to get in."

Tristan placed a hand on Henry's shoulder. "Let me try, then. Sometimes a fresh perspective can work wonders."

Henry sighed and stepped aside to let Tristan take over. Tristan's fingers

    "George. I admit that Im guilty of stealing your identity but there's a lot to explain and I hope you'll hear me out." Henry said.Tristan intervened, "George? Let's hear him out. We've come a long way to get this point. Let's not rush to judgment." George's expression softened slightly but his anger still simmered just below the surface, "Fine. Explain yourself. 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. My father's riches were stolen by my cruel in-laws and I'm sure you have your own story of bet

    Henry's eyes opened and he was greeted by a worried face of man who has familiar features. But yet it was unfamiliar at the same time. Henry's mind was fogy and he tried to remember what had happened and he remembered he fainted. "Thank goodness, you're awake! how are you feeling?" the man's eyes lit up with relief as he helped Henry sit up. Henry's gaze locked onto the man's face,trying to place him. "Who are you?" he asked. "I'm the one who found you unconscious in the middle of the town square and your lucky I was passing by. By the way what's your name, boy? the man replied. Henry's mind was still racing as he looked around and tried to get his bearing. Where was his friend, Tristan Morris? He was the last person he remembered seeing. "Tristan Morris, have you seen him?" 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."

    "Henry? What's going on with you? Why did you attacked my friend, Richard?" Clifford asked. Henry sighed, "I don't know, I just lost my temper." he looked down, avoiding his gaze. Clifford's expression turned stern, "Lost your temper? Henry, you almost hurt my friend. What's going on with you?" Henry's eyes snapped back up, "I said I don't know. Just drop it." "Okay, I know you're going through a tough time, kid. But you can't lash out at others like that. You have to learn to control your emotions." Clifford advised. Henry's defiance faltered, "I'm sorry, I was really out of my mind."Clifford's expression turned sympathetic, "It's alright. We all make mistakes but you have to promise me one thing, you can't hurt other people like that. You have to learn to deal with your emotions in a healthy way."

    Henry caught everyone's attention as he arrived at the mansion carrying bags of food."What took you so long?! We have been waiting for you to make us breakfast!" As soon as his mother-in-law saw him, she threw the goblet on the table at him."I apologize, Madame Ofelia. There was a car accident on my way. I was stuck in a traffic," Henry apologized, barely dodged the goblet thrown at his face.The glass made a shattering sound. If it hit him in the face, they might still think the blood would stain the floor."You damn loser, how dare do you talk to me like this?! I can't believe why Margaret married a useless man like you." The old lady was outraged, started mourning, loudly, “Richard, my love. If you’re alive, you won’t let this bastard destroyed our beautiful glasses.”Henry was at a loss whether to laugh, and silently sat down beside Margret, his wife.She was comforting her mother.Richard Wellington – Margaret‘s father, Ofelia’s husband - just passed away."

    Everyone is struggling to process the information they just learned. Madame Ofelia looks like she will have a heart attack because of it. "What?! H-how is that loser going to inherit Dad's wealth? This is ridiculous!!" William protested. He felt like heavens and earth collided because his brother-in-law became the beneficiary. "Attorney Garcia! This is impossible! Why would Henry inherit the wealth when he knows nothing about our family's business? He's just a burden to our family," Gregory, William's cousin, chimed in."Exactly, if anyone deserves the inheritance, it should be William or my son Gregory, who knows how to handle large corporations," Auntie Faustina joined in, hoping to secure some shares as Richard's sister."Quiet! I won't allow anyone especially that peasant to become a beneficiary!" William angrily pointed at Henry, who had no idea what was going on. "Speak up, Henry! Did you plan this to take over our family's wealth?!" William exclaimed. Henry still couldn't s

    Days had passed and Henry remained to be a public discussion and his relationship with the Wellingtons became even more chaotic."Henry, some more investors have pulled out from our company!" Margaret delivered the news anxiously. She sat on the couch, at a loss of what to do to help her family who were at risk of losing millions of money because there was no one competent managing the companies they owned."What can I do to fix this?" Henry asked, having not slept properly for days because of the problems he was facing."I don't know, Henry. Maybe we should ask Mr. Garcia for help on what we should do." Margaret reached for her phone to call the lawyer.They were able to easily communicate with Mr. Garcia who immediately visited them at their hotel."You have the right to reject the inheritance, Mr. Constantine. You have two options. First is a formal disclaimer to express your intent to renounce the inheritance," Mr. Garcia explained, willing to help Henry if he wanted to give up be

    CHAPTER 98-MALFUNCTION

    The stormy night had turned the deserted road into a battlefield. Henry and Tristan were fighting for their lives against the shadow syndicate hunters. With the flashes of gunfire, the darkness was illuminated as the sound of thunder was drowned out by the constant exchange of bullets. 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. "So tell me what you guys are planning. How

    Henry was accompanied by Tristan as they emerged form the car with Lydia, seated in a wheelchair beside them. While Mr. Howard was surprised to see the sight of Lydia's fragile form. "What happened?" Mr. Howard eyes darting between the three of them. "I apologize for not informing you and this unexpected arrival. We've had quite an eventful day. And I'll explain." Henry said. Tristan standing beside Henry, scratching his nape, "We really had a bit of a situation on our hands." he said.As they entered the mansion, Henry began to share what happened, "We found Lydia at the old abandoned house which is my house located on the outskirts of town. She was on the floor, unconscius and we immediately take her to the hospital." Tristan picked up where Henry left off, "The doctors diagnosed her with memory loss, Mr. Howard. She doesn't remember anything, not even her own name." Mr. Howard's eyes grew wide. "That's terrible! And why was she discharged this early?" Henry's expression darke
