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 about it and I already paid the bills."

His eyes brightened Immediately. "Thanks grandpa." He appreciated

"There is no need to thank me. That is the least that I could do for her."

"But I still need to see her." He added but his grandfather shook his head.

"I also tried to but the doctors said no one can see her by evening tomorrow." He was informed and he took it in good faith.

At least now he knew that his mother was in good hands.

"Anyways, there is someone that I would like you to meet tomorrow. He noted but he didn't say a word.

"And I think there is a need to visit the mall." He noted

He stared at the clothes that he was putting on for a while and noticed how torn it was after he had been beaten up and he didn't have enough time to get his things from his old place.

"Okay, father. I will just go over to the street and get some new clothes." He noted but then, the face of his father squeezed into a sudden frown almost immediately.

"Why would you say such? Do you even realize that you are my son now?" He could not but inquire.

He snapped his hands again and another guard walked towards him and made a swift stop just before him.

"Now, I want you to drive my grandson here to the most classic mall in the City. He noted."

And eventually, he turned out that he would be becoming the new owner of the mall pretty soon since it was also owned by his father and managed by the man that brought him there, Mr. Blakes.

The guard was already ready to take him to wherever it was that he wanted to go.

But then, he was not used to going around always being guarded, with eyes piercing through your skin.

"Is this necessary Grandpa?" His brow farrowed.

His grandfather drew off from the seat that he was sitting on and walked over to him slowly tapping him slightly by his shoulders.

"I know that you are pretty new to this but it's all for your security and nothing other than that." His grandfather persuaded him but he was not going to give in this time.

"Grandfather, let's make a deal. I promise that this is going to be the last time that I will go out without any form of protection. Besides, nobody knows about me." He noted.

His Grandfather was not okay with it but after a while, he obliged.

Henry made his way out of the suite and walked gradually into the street.

He could not help but think about the sudden turn of events. Just in a single way.

He seemed to be walking in the air now with every single trace of Dignity.

Finally, he got to the legendary Genesis Mall, the mall that when he was still a broke guy, he would never dare to look into it.

He took a deep sip of satisfaction as he walked over to the coffee point and he took a copy, flipping a dollar into the machine.

He walked away slowly towards the front desk to get a membership card. From what he had heard about the company, you could not go into the main Hall without that card and it was worth close to a million dollars.

While he continued to walk, something really strange happened within the flash of time.

It was as though something slipped into his coffee and his eyes farrowed. He could not tell what exactly it was as he continued to stare at it confused for a while.

"What could that be?" He could not help but think in his head.

Knowing that nobody was going to drink that again, he dipped his hands into it and his hands met with some strange metal, getting him Even more confused than he was already.

And curious to know what exactly it was and how it got into his cup of coffee.

Finally, he was able to bring it out and in the end, it turned out to be a coin.

His face was flushed with so much confusion as he continued to stare at it.

"How did this get into this place?" He thought.

Just then, he heard swaying feet from behind and he turned around to see who it was only to notice that it was Helena

Helena was his wife's best friend and just like everyone else, he treated him like some piece of thrash and she was a worker at the mall.

He was able to place two and two together and knew for sure that she was the one who slipped the coin into his cup of coffee.

His face tightened into a stalk frown as he continued to stare at her, gnashing his teeth with so much anger.

"And what was that for?" His hands were clenched and she made a face portraying her as an Innocent being.

"What! Are you angry at my kind gesture? I thought that is exactly what beggars like your kind want. Wouldn't you rather appreciate me?" Her face twisted with laughter.

He could feel his anger rising so badly now that he had to clutch his hands to control his rising anger.

"What are you even doing here?"

"And what position are you to answer me?" He returned to her.

He stared at him for a while, surprised by his audacity because he had never seen him that way before.

"Maybe it was because of what was done to him." She thought in her head as a dark smile hovered on her lips.

"Well if you care to know, I was just made the general supervisor and if you don't give me the reason that you are here, I am afraid you will have to get out of the place."

"And if you care to know, I am here for the same reason that everyone else in this place. To shop. If you aren't dumb to realize that already." He returned to her already getting tired of the conversation as he began to move away from her.

Her face tightened into a frown as she ran off towards him and stopped him right in the track and this time there was not even a single trace of a smile on her face.

"If you think that you want to steal, I don't think that this is the best place for you and you should leave this place right away."

He ignored all her statements and finally got to the desk where he was going to get everyone that he needed.

Immediately he got there, the sales lady stared at him, looking at him from head to toe.

"Please we don't run a charity organization here." Her fingers returned the things that she was working on before he initially came to the desk

Henry frowned.

"And who said that I came here for that? Is this really how your company treats its customers."

While he was still standing, another man came in and he was smartly dressed making her intend to him almost immediately.

"I thought that you were busy but come to think of it now, the only thing that I see you're seeing is trying to avoid me."

"Isn't it obvious that you need to leave or I am going to get the security right away?" He fired.

Soon, Helena walked into the place and proceeded directly to the bench.

"Don't listen to anything that he wants to play you with. He is a thief and a scammer."

"It's already written all over him already and I would certainly not be a prey."

He was speechless for a while. The manager of a company is being treated so poorly by the people who work under him.

"I thought that this was a mall?"

"Yeah, if you want access, you have to get a membership card and that is something to pay for."

"How much is it?"He heard his head saying.

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.

    At the hospital, “ Grandpa, please don't leave me alone.” Henry said when he saw his grandfather lying on the bed with various wires hooked to his veins. “ Young master! You can't be in here.” A nurse said and stared at him aghast. The doctor expressly said that grandfather should be left alone. “ You aren't going to tell me what to do.” Henry shouted at her. “ I need to be with my grandfather at this time!” He snapped and the nurse recoiled. She didn't know that he could be this angry. Mrs. Clara ran into the room, "Oh my goodness, I came as soon as I heard. I'm so sorry about this.” She said. “ Where's the doctor?” Henry replied and on cue, a short middle-aged man walked in with a stethoscope on his shoulders signifying his status. “Mr. Henry, you shouldn't be in here.” He said in a challenging tone, and Henry looked at him with contempt in his eyes. How dare they tell him not to visit his only family left? “ What happened to my grandfather?” He replied instead. He was less co

I was unable to move my legs." He said. " Why didn't you call me immediately?" Henry queried. He would have arrived faster." Well, I couldn't reach my bedside table, and my speech was affected. All thanks to a maid who came to check up on me and found me shaking." He replied. Henry rubbed a hand over his face, he didn't want to imagine what could have happened if the maid didn't find him when she did. "I'm grateful that you are alive. Meet Grin." He introduced him to his grandfather and face palmed internally later when he remembered that his grandpa knew everyone in his office. "I know him." He replied as Grin gav

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."

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."

    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

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

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.

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

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
