Holy shit!!! Henry screamed.They hit the tree so badly that Henry lost cautiousness.Amidst the chaos and flames on the deserted highway, Henry woke up with a little tear on his arm.He coughed and managed to get out of the car. He beckoned to the driver, and he woke up, his eyes wide open in shock.Sorry, master he went on one knee, I am sorry he said, limping towards Henry.It is fine, let's get ourselves out of this place, the car isn't safe…they crossed to the other side of the road.After waving for minutes, a car stopped.I'll be happy to help a young lady in the front seat offered.Thank you, kind, Miss Henry said, they got in, and the driver was bleeding profusely.They got to the hospital after a thirty-minute drive and Henry and the driver were admitted.The news soon reached the grandfather, and he arrived at the hospital with Henry's foster mom, who he met on his way to the hospital.Henry…hey … . Henry..his mom called with a crying face, she asked the nurse why isn't he s
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
Grandfather!" Henry exclaimed and rushed to his bed." I'm happy to see you awake." He refrained from hugging him tightly. " It's good to be awake, son. They tried to kill me." Grandpa said and Henry's eyes widened. How did he know? "You knew?" He inquired and the grandpa nodded. "My entire system got destroyed immediately after I finished drinking coffee this morning. 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
" I don't want a lady in my life." Henry repeated when his grandfather called him the next day to inform him of a blind date. "Well, l don't care. You need to show up tonight. You can't stand her up." He said and Henry couldn't object. " Grandfather, you should have asked if I wanted to see her. I am quite busy with work."Henry replied politely. " Can't we reschedule? I have a meeting with the Russian investors." He replied. "I know that, she will arrive after the meeting." He said and Henry groaned. He should have known that Grandpa wouldn't be one step ahead of him. Did anything ever pass him by? "What time is this date scheduled for?" Henry asked, he guessed he had no choice. "Around Eight p.m. You should be done with your meeting. Please dress well. You need to be presentable." "Yes, sir." Henry replied. They exchanged a few pleasantries before he hung up the call. The door opened and Grin walked into Henry's office and he looked up."Sorry to disturb you, sir. You have a m
Henry was a bit shaken after the meeting with Mr. Jang. What was it about him that made everyone want him to be their son-in-law? First, it was his grandfather, now his client. "I'll await your response, son." Mr Jang said after he refused to respond. What would it take them to understand that he didn't want to be in a relationship, at least not anytime soon? Grin walked into his office with his laptop, "Sir, the Russian investors have asked for a reschedule of the appointment. They are deeply sorry to cancel on you." He said. Henry raised his head and sighed, it was a blessing in disguise because he was feeling fatigued and still had a swarm of emails to attend to. "When do they plan on having the meeting?" He asked. "Next week, Tuesday." "Great, tell them it's fine." Henry said and Grin went to work. It was almost three hours later when he heard his phone ring. "Hello." "Hello, love. I've missed you so much." Rose's soft voice filtered through the speaker. It was amazing tha
My name is Aubrey, as you already know– I am a lady who loves sightseeing and exploring the world. I model part-time." She said. " Hmmm, that's good to hear. Tell me more." He probed and watched her hair glisten under the light which created a halo around her.Aubrey chuckled, this was the first man who sounded invested in her without asking for her father's name. Probably because he was also wealthy but that didn't stop her previous suitors. "'I am just a lady who enjoys being around people and working." She replied and Henry nodded. " What are your hobbies?" He asked further because he noticed that Aubrey sounded a little shy and he wondered why. He was intrigued by her smile and everything she did."I enjoy skating and visiting the movie theater when I can." She replied and adjusted some strands which slipped out of their curves. "That's great." He replied. He had expected her to mention shopping due to her job. Is that all you enjoy doing?" He asked and she nodded. The waiter
Hello? Hello? Are you there?” He called, and the man didn't say anything. “ Hello? What do you know about my parents' death?” He asked. “I thought you told me not to call you anymore.” The person replied, and Henry grew more confused. “You didn't state the reason you called.” Henry replied. Said. The man clicked his tongue before speaking, "Next time you shouldn't be too harsh with people. You never know who could be your helper.” He chided him calmly. “So, what do you want me to do for you?” Henry asked. He knew that people didn't help others for fun. There was always a warning. “What if I want to help you for free?” He replied. “ I don't have time for all of this. Name your price and present your evidence.” Henry snapped. This help didn't sound genuine.” If you would rather not talk to me, have a wonderful day then.” “ Impatient, I see. That's not a good trait because you will end up losing many good things in life. I only have one warning, be careful of the people you let int
“Hmm, now this is how you do stuff. How do you feel now?” Henry commented after checking through all the emails.How dare he?” Clara muttered inwardly as she showed him the corrections. He was a slave driver. 'After slaving all through the night, this is what I get? No form of appreciation.' She muttered, and Henry raised his head. “You were saying?” He asked and Clara blinked. She didn't know that she spoke aloud. “Nothing, sir.” Henry gave her another look and noticed that the rim of her glasses was crooked. “ Why haven't you fixed your glasses?” He inquired.If you hadn't worked me to the bone, maybe I would have had time to fix it. She thought. “I will fix it over the weekend, sir.” “It's dangerous to keep working with it. What if shards of glass enter your eyes?” He asked. Clara felt as if she was talking to an alien. Why was he acting concerned? “ We just have two days to go. I'm sure I can manage.” She replied softly and averted her eyes when she found him watching her cl
