Super Consortium Heir After Breakup CHAPTER 26: MY SECRETARY
"She is my secretary." Henry countered.Aubrey's eyes darted from Henry to Clara in a slow inspection leaving Clara feeling twitchy, "Hmm, you don't say." She clicked her tongue at us. Something was fishy, from the way Clara stared at Henry to his sudden defensiveness. She had no doubt that they had something in common. 'Am I making a mistake?' She asked herself. ' I don't think he sees you in that way.' The nagging voice of her friend filtered into her mind. Seeing that eyes were on her, she tilted her brows upwards, "I have to run, I'll see you later." She said and pecked Henry on the corner of his mouth. Clara's face became sour as if she swallowed a pill. "May I sit?" She asked Henry who nodded and she popped on the chair wordlessly."You are lost in thoughts again." He commented and sipped his wine slowly. Aubrey quickly averted her eyes and spoke, " I wasn't looking at you sir. I have remembered that you have a meeting today with the head of Javon industries by two-thirty p.m
Super Consortium Heir After Breakup CHAPTER 27: THIRTY MILLION DOLLARS
" I am willing to offer thirty million dollars to own thirty percent of the shares." Mr. Javon said. Henry chuckled within him. That amount was too small for the share he wanted to have. "You can only get twenty percent." He replied. Javon stared at Henry, he needed to be a part of this project because it was going to gross billions, being the sole refiner and distributor of oil in the country wasn't an easy task. He also bid for that contract but lost. " Why don't I make it fifty million dollars?" He offered. Henry shook his head, his grandfather told him not to allow many investors to be onboarded for a project. "That's final, sir." Henry replied politely. Javon shook his head, this boy was adamant about giving him a large portion of shares, " Is there a reason for not accepting my offer?" He asked with a bit of anger in his tone. Henry relaxed in his chair and studied Mr. Javon quietly. He was desperate to buy shares and that made his mental hackles rise at attention, Javon m
Super Consortium Heir After Breakup CHAPTER 28: AUBREY
Henry snuck a look at Clara who was shivering a bit and nudged her gently, "Do I need to turn off the A.C?" He asked and she shook her head. " No, I'm fine, sir." She replied with a smile, and clasped her hands together to stop herself from shivering. Henry reached for the remote and reduced the temperature of the A.C. " You feel better now?" He asked her. It was a subtle way to tell her that he knew that she was lying but in such a way that she wouldn't feel offended. "Thank you." She responded while Grace went about in the kitchen.His phone rang and he looked at the screen. It was Aubrey. What was she calling him for again? He wondered. It wasn't up to ten hours that they saw each other. "Hey, Aubrey." He answered out of courtesy and also because he didn't want her showing up unannounced tomorrow. Who knows what she might do next? Probably wait at his house. " Hello, dear." She replied with a drawl and Henry raised eyebrows a little. When did the term of endearment begin?"I was
Super Consortium Heir After Breakup CHAPTER 29: PANIC
The monitor beeped slowly and Henry panicked wondering what it meant. Clara looked deathly pale and he hoped that she wasn't about to die. The smell of antiseptic assaulted his nostrils and he wrinkled his nose. He was five years old when he first stepped into the hospital. It was to stitch his broken nose and the smell never changed. Grin looked at the worried look on his boss' face as he stared at Clara. There was a hint of something else but he refused to think in that direction, Clara was a good staff, likewise Henry, so it was only normal if he showed concern for her. Henry kept tapping his foot and his gaze switched from the monitor to Clara. " Just wake up." He thought. As if Grin could read his thoughts, he spoke. " Sir, I believe she will wake up soon." He said while staring at the monitor too. it wasn't beeping regularly as it should. "I hope so. Have you contacted her brother?" Henry asked and raised his head to stare at him. " Yes, but he is out of town. That was why
Super Consortium Heir After Breakup CHAPTER 30: HOME VISIT
"Welcome to my home." Pops smiled when Clara walked into the house the next day. He exchanged a glance with Henry. What happened to not allow her come here?" Thank you, sir." Clara replied weakly. A maid appeared suddenly and assisted her in climbing the stairs. " Henry, may I have a word with you?" Pops said when he saw that he was staring at Clara's retreating figure. 'Can you be more obvious, son?' He said. "How is her mother feeling?"" She's still in coma. We went to check on her earlier but I decided that it wouldn't be wise to leave her with the sick mother. Plus, her brother is in agreement with my decision. He volunteered to stay till Clara is fully recovered. Sorry for not telling you beforehand." He said. Making decisions for her too? Pops was highly entertained by the new development. It was time for another subtle push, "Its fine. I just want to be sure that her mother is fine. We can't stop her from seeing her Mom." He said and Henry nodded. " Okay, why don't you res
Super Consortium Heir After Breakup CHAPTER 31: A LEAVE
Clara looked up when she heard a knock on the door. " Can I come in?" Henry asked. " Yes, sir." She replied and rose immediately, "Good afternoon, sir." She greeted him and rubbed her palm at the back of her pants in nervousness. She still looked pale, Henry thought. "How are you doing today?" He asked her as his eyes did a quick scan of the room. The bed was neatly laid as if she had not even slept in it and he wondered what she was busy doing all the time. "I'm fine, feeling better, thanks for bringing me here." She said with a small smile. Henry was a generous man and she was thankful for that." You didn't go to work today." She said when she took on his casual attire. He was wearing dark blue jeans and a white T-shirt. He looked fresh in it. " I hope it wasn't on my account." She asked and he shook his head. Henry stuffed his hands into his pockets and rocked on his feet, he didn't know how to begin the conversation of taking her out. " Are you okay?" He asked in concern when h
Super Consortium Heir After Breakup CHAPTER 32: OFFICE
" It's good to see you too, Quentin." They said while their eyes traveled around the office staring at what could have been theirs if they had managed their inheritance wisely. Quentin went down memory lane, they were the only ones who called him by the name his mother gave him which scratched the wound that was about to completely heal. He gave a subtle nod to Grin who sat at the end of the office pretending to be typing while recording the conversation before smiling at his half siblings. " It's been a long while I must say." He said enjoying the look of regret on their faces. Too bad, it was already too late. " I wonder why." Ross, his eldest sibling replied. Quentin chuckled, " Oh, you know, everyone has been busy with life, and stuff, you know how it is." He waved his hand dramatically. He was having a field day with this. Ross' eyes narrowed at him, " What do you mean by that? Are you mocking us?" He asked in a challenging time while looking at his siblings for support. They
Super Consortium Heir After Breakup CHAPTER 33: DINNER
“Look at the time, it's almost eight. We are almost late for dinner.” Henry said when he looked at his watch. Then turned to Clara, they had walked to the end of the estate not talking but simply just relishing each other's company. “Let's go back then.” Clara said, and they made a U-turn. “ I could call a driver to come pick us up.” Henry suggested when he noticed the fatigue in her eyes. He didn't want her stressing herself. Clara shook her head vehemently, “Uh, no, there's no need for that, sir. I can manage. I'm fine.” “ Call me Henry.” Henry replied as they walked back to the house. He looked at his watch again, Clara was walking slowly which meant that they were going to be late for dinner, and he kept his grandfather waiting for long. Unexpectedly, he carried her in his arms, causing Clara's hands to flail. What the hell is going on?“ Put me down, sir!” She exclaimed in surprise, but Henry kept walking to the house fast. She resisted the urge to lean into his arms and inha

CHAPTER 192: The End
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..

CHAPTER 191: Epilogue
The flight back to Italy was very quick, maybe it was due to the fact that they didn't have anything bothering them anymore, no need to look over their shoulder for every little matter. Henry was very elated to see the soils of Italy.It made him appreciate freedom. He never knew that he was living like a king even when he was poor but with the small taste of money and the problems that accompanied it, he was able to appreciate being free.Clara rested her head on his shoulder as she stared at the soil. It was good to go home. " How do you feel?" She inquired from him and he smiled at her."I feel good, great, even. Who would have thought that I would miss this place? There was a time I was crazy about leaving the country, now that I know better I know that I was foolish at that time. What the hell was I even thinking at that period? He wondered aloud.Clara giggled beside him, it was amazing how he was able to see things from a grander scope. "I think there are several reasons that w

CHAPTER 190: Clara rushes to hug Henry
Henry sank to his feet instantly and Clara rushed to hug him. She cried into his shoulders, until his clothes began to get wet. " I'm sorry,I shouldn't be doing this. I don't know what is wrong with me." She chuckled while trying to wipe the tears off her face.Henry rose slowly and held her up. It wasn't so great of an event. She was bawling her eyes out. " Hey, it's okay, I'm free now. You don't need to cry." He said, trying to pacify her and she nodded softly.She moved away so that she could allow the grandfather and son to bond comfortably. Stopping them was not the best thing that she could do because she was feeling a certain type of way. His gaze fell upon his grandfather and he didn't know when he began to weep gently. It was almost as though he was feeling weak and at the same time unable to breathe. "I'm so happy to see you son." He said and held him very close to himself. "Me too, Pops." He said and held him close. His pops had been there for him for a very long time an

CHAPTER 189: Henry was Released
The court room went silent and Henry stared at the man who just came to lie without a tangible reason. His eyes rested on him and he tried to figure out where he knew him from to no avail . It was as though the man had harbored grievances against him and sought the perfect time to unleash his vengeance. He was stupefied." I take objection to that statement. If there's CCTV footage, produce it so that we can all watch it." Henry's lawyer said and he stared at the wicked man who was standing before him. it was obvious that he was just trying to ruin Henry's life."I came with proof if that's what you are asking for." He said confidently and Henry was pissed beyond measure. He didn't know this man from Adam but he was hell bent on tarnishing his image. " Lets have it." The judge called again and it was given to him. The assistant slotted it in and connected it to the projector and they all watched the scene."Pause it there." The judge said and adjusted his glasses." A hush fell ove

CHAPTER 188: Supreme Court
After spending a great deal of time trying to make sure that there was no need to continue staying in the hospital, they went to court. Pops pulled some strings on some of his old people who knew what was going on, he was probably thinking about what would have happened if he didn't have such a strong backbone. He didn't even want to imagine it because it would be so brutal. Anyway, it was going to be great if he could actually do without the court order Alas, there was no one above the law. He stood before the judge at the supreme court with his lawyer in front of him. The complainant also stood at the opposite dock. It was a woman, she was claiming that her husband was killed."Mr. Henry, What do you have to say concerning the defendant's claim?" Henry looked at the judge and the sobbing woman. As much as he pitied her, he couldn't help but feel that she was doing a tad bit too much. "I didn't kill her husband, my honor. It was out of self defense. He tried to kill me, whoever has

CHAPTER 187: The News
*******Chapter 187Clara didn't wait for him to finish his sentence before placing a hand over her mouth, this was not the news that she wanted to hear. It was heartbreaking and at the same time she had to maintain a good front because Pops was in the room, staring at her. "That's great to hear. I thought that he was actually harmed. It's good to hear that he's well. Thank you Caine." She mustered a fake smile and Caine stared at his phone as if there was an alien living in it. Wasn't she the person who was angry a few minutes ago that things were hidden away from her? Yet she was telling him thank you. "Good. I'll talk to you later." He said and she nodded before hanging up abruptly and turned to see Pops staring at her. He wasn't talking at the moment but his eyes spoke volumes. He was probably thinking about what was happening to his grandson."Pops, what would you like to eat?" She asked him as she moved closer to his bed to stroke his hands.He shook his head slightly and she

CHAPTER 186: The Cab
Chapter 186George agreed without arguing one bit as he was drooped at the end of the road, he didn't waste any more time in making sure that there was anything holding him back as he bundled down the pavement and flagged down a cab. He was sure that they would take him to his doorstep. All he needed was to take a bath first then right after he could now start thinking about other things but for now, he would have preferred just staying away and waiting till there was nothing else to do. "That man is scarred. I don't think we should have let him go just like that. We know that he needed the money. He was just acting so that it didn't seem that way." Fred spoke from the rearview mirror.Caine nodded in agreement. He had other plans for the man but from experience he had known better than to allow anyone to come close to the family because it could be very frustrating if the person didn't know what was going on. It was more of a preservation. No one wanted to be involved with people th

CHAPTER 185: Alien
Chapter 185Caine and Fred came bursting through the door. " Everyone raise your hands above your heads." Caine ordered as he and Fred came bursting into the living room.Everyone stared at them as if they were aliens speaking gibberish. "Who is he?" Liam asked as his eyes casually strolled from the intruders to Henry.Henry sighed and balled his fists which were already losing sensitivity due to the excessive amount of blood. "Don't go all macho on him. You can call him my brother from another mother, he's been there even from the beginning of this issue." Liam's eyes narrowed in suspicion as he stared at the man in front of him. He couldn't remember where he knew him from but from the way he was behaving he knew that he was someone of great importance.Caine glanced at Fred before his eyes swung toward Liam and Ryan. This was somewhat a complicated issue because if it was left to him, he would have locked this man up. But with the situation at hand. It sounded unwise because this ma

CHAPTER 184: Trigger
Chapter 184Henry didn't waste time in locating the person who fired the shots. It was no one but Jess and he was shocked to his bone that she could even attempt to save them."I love you baby!" Liam jumped up immediately and pulled the trigger at Ryan causing him to stumble and almost hit the ground.George, sensing potential freedom, rose from his position and bundled towards Ryan who was rubbing his sore legs. It was a double bullet. He didn't wait till he recovered before falling atop him. Ryan was utterly shocked when he saw that the tables had turned. "Get off me, you oaf." He grunted from beneath George and tried to shake him off but found it hard to do that so he bit him.George, who was stubborn, persisted in making sure that he didn't leave.Henry also joined the party by knocking the gun out of his hands. Ryan was pretty helpless at this point, he bit George on the hand again, this time almost removing the chunk of flesh that surrounded his hand but George made sure that h
