A year After."What is going on?" He inquired worriedly when he saw Clara bent over a toilet seat, heaving her lungs out. Panic settled inside him and he patted her back softly. What can I get you?" He asked her and she sat on the tiles."I feel queasy." She said and before she could finish talking, she puked again inside the toilet. "Please get me a tissue." She croaked and stretched her hand backward. That was what she needed.Henry sighed softly as he wiped her mouth for her. "You need to see a doctor, this cannot be ordinary flu." He said and she rinsed her mouth."I think so too. I don't know what is happening to me but I don't feel well inside of me." Like a lightbulb, an idea flashed into his head and he stared at her with wide eyes, and she stared at him strangely." what?" "Are you pregnant?" "What?" She repeated and Henry placed a hand on her shoulders. " Have you been feeling weak? Tenderness in the boobs? Diarrhea and constant headache?" He inquired." Yeah?""I think..
"What complaint do you have to lay again this time?" Henry's boss, Fred. with a scornful frown on his face."I want a salary raise. I need it this time." Henry sank his hands into his pockets."Why?" Fred returned to him, without even raising his head from the computer, not taking his words seriously."Gulp." A large lump went down his spine almost immediately.Henry has been working as a sales agent in the company for years now and all his colleagues that joined in together have all been promoted but he was still where he was."My foster mother is sick and the doctor said that they need to carry out a surgical operation on her and make a really large deposit." He noted with a trace of tears in his voice.After going around to sort for money and did not get any. This was his last hope and he could not allow his mother to die.Mr. Fred shot a really weird stare at her as his face twisted with so much irritation."Do you have to always beg to survive? Isn't it enough that I have you w
"Young master." They kept on saying to him, making him furrow his brow and he pulled backwards slowly."I think there is a mistake here. How can I be anyone's master when I can barely feed and I just got my salary cut in half?" He could not help a bit but inquire."I think that you have for got the wrong person." He said again."No young master. That can't be possible. Since we have already carried out all our research.""Come with us, we are going to explain everything to you." The man returned to himFor a while he was stricken in his place, unable to move even the slightest bit and he could feel his heart beating hard against his chest until he could not get enough air in his wind pipe.But again they could not get anything from him since he was way too broke so he decided to go with them. The young man singled to the Rolls-Royce that stood at the far end of the street and it drove over to them immediately as though it was already expecting the command.He was hesitant, not wantin
A large lump went down his spine as he spat out the words from his mouth. Who did not know about the wealthy empire?But could this man be the one?Only a few people knew about the leader of such a large business empire that led the hotels, steel companies, and a lot of other companies all over the city.His jaw fell apart as he continued to focus his eyes on him.He quickly brought out his phone from his pocket and searched for him.He compared the photos with the one that he was saying right before him."They match." A scoff escaped from his mouth.His heart was racing fast now as though it was going to burst through from his chest and his father's lips broke into a smile."There is no need for you to think too much about it."Then he thought about his foster mother, he had to reach out to the hospital immmediately and her bills paid. His grandfather seem to notice the worry in his eyes and already knew what he was thinking about."You don't need to worry about Mrs. Bella, I Know
"And if I can get it without any form of stress?". He wanted to deal with them for treating him in such a way.Immediately he spat out the words from his mouth, Helena and the sale lady broke out into hateful laughter, clutching to her stomach and trying as hard as she could not to roll on the floor."Why are you asking for the price of something that you can not afford?" Her eyes farrowed while she continued to stare at him."And if I can get the card, you are going to call me Daddy?" Immediately he said this now, the laughter stopped, seeing that things were now getting even much more serious than they had thought in the first place.They shot a stare at him and back at each other. The silence of the three of them engulfed the three of them until Helena finally decided to break the silence."This is one of their techniques." She tried pull his off from it but from the look that was on his face, it showed that he was not joking with it."And if you are not able to?" The sale lady i
The guards there ushered them out of the place while he was given a special treat around.Henry went through the list of what he needed and then when he was satisfied, he turned around and left the mall.He could feel the thick air of satisfaction floating around him as he walked back home and for the first time in a long time, his face carved into a genuine smileHe had to sleep early that night because he had a whole lot of places to go to the next day. First, he was going to head for the business headquarters of his company, just as his Father had duly informed him and after that, he was going to see his foster mother at the hospital.He could barely sleep well that night, always rolling on the foam. He always slept on the floor in his hard rock room. The AC and the extra soft foam, he wasn't used to all that comfortThe next morning, it was time for him to go to his company. He got ready as soon as he could and had forgotten the deal that he had with his grandfather the previous
He watched as he vanished into thin air and he was left alone there. He wanted to get his grandfather to tell him the manager of the place so that he would be driven away instantly but he decided to keep cool.He wanted to know what his ambition was, coming into his company.He stepped away from the place and walked gradually towards the massive gates that were made of rare gems, all glittering in the ray of the sun.The place was packed filled with a lot of people wanting to get into the company but there was a warden at the gateFrom what he was told, the warden was going to ask everyone their ambition in the company and if it was reason enough, he was going to let them in.He was pretty shocked by the fact even a simple security officer of the company was so expensively dressedFinally, he got to the Security and a search was carried out.He wasn't even worried that he was the owner of the company. Besides, he was like any other person.Since he was past visiting time, he was the o
"I am sorry about him ma'am. He is nothing but a useless and worthless bum trying to get into the company but I am going to get rid of him right away." He raised his head slowly, about to walk away and get the security officer but then, Miss. Clara stopped him, Staring right into his eyes and gnashing her teeth."I want you to repeat what you just said. A useless and worthless bum ?" He frowned and he nodded her head."Yes ma'am. But.." he did not even get to complete his statement before a thick slap landed on his face."How dare you. You fool." She growled at him and he clutched to his aching face, totally confused.Miss Clara pulled away from him almost immediately and walked down to him."I'm deeply sorry sir and speechless at the same time." She fell on her knees to apologize to him, knowing way too well what his grandfather could do to her if he found out anything about it.Her heart was racing, hitting the fence of its caves while she looked down without daring to steal a glanc
