At 8:00 a.m., there was an autumnal feeling in the air.

Benjamin was driving a vintage Santana down the road to the city center.

Relieved, Henry closed his eyes as he sat in the car's rear seat.

The vehicle radio was broadcasting the morning news.

"Breaking news! It was one o'clock in the morning when Donald White and Sofia Harrison were taken into custody by police at the hotel where they were staying. They were found guilty of murder with malice aforethought and corruption and are currently standing trial."

Benjamin is action-oriented. It was a smart move to give him a promotion, Henry thought, as he looked outside the window at the view and a sliver of a grin emerged on the corner of his lips.

They got to the Dale Building after over an hour of driving.

The finest office spaces in Stanley were housed in this tall edifice that had more than 40 stories.

Henry, as a delivery guy, had once come to bring takeout to this location.

Even though he had not been there in at least two years,

    "Do you happen to be here on business?" Henry attempted to regain his composure before approaching Adam.He was disgusted with these two individuals, but he attempted to keep his emotions under control."My husband is here to talk business collaboration with Ryan Dalton, the owner of Dale Building, and this time he is coming to discuss a project worth hundreds of millions of dollars", Helen said with pride."All right, the elevator is going to come any moment now. Don't worry about that poor delivery man. Someone like that can only boast." Adam didn't bother to get involved with Henry since the elevator indicated that it was about to reach the first floor."I understand, my dear" Helen sweetly said as her doting eyes glanced at Adam. Then, her expression changed to an arrogant one as she stared at Henry. "You don't deserve to ride the elevator. Just walk the stairs, okay? The elevator in the Dale Building is not for people like you. After all, you are just a poor delivery guy, right?"

    "Uhm... Okay" the secretary replied with a stutter.Right now, she hadn't completely recovered from the shock. Henry's remarks brought her back to reality.In the midst of her disbelief, she couldn't help but cast another peek at her new employer.While Helen assisted him, Adam stepped inside the office. As soon as he spotted Ryan, he instantly became courteous."Why are you walking like that?" Ryan inquired in bewilderment."It's a sore subject. A cruel deliveryman shoved me down earlier," Adam explained in anguish, intending to utilize this moment to seem to be miserable and stir Ryan's pity.Since he got hurt on Ryan's turf, it was only fair for Ryan to pay some compensation. It would be helpful for the subsequent discussion and collaboration."Hey! That's him!" Helen widened her eyes in surprise and pointed at Henry, who was having tea next to Ryan. "Mr. Dalton, how can you allow such a person in here?"Ryan's expression grew ghastly. He had made all the necessary preparations and

    Henry, who was riding in Christopher's car, attracted a lot of attention along the road.As a good thing, his classes for the day were not over yet. Henry asked Christopher to find a secret place before getting out of the car and going back to school.He would have an exam in the morning during the final lesson of the day, which would last two hours.There was just an hour left for the test, so Henry had to rush back to the classroom.Fortunately, the test paper was submitted immediately after the bell sounded."Despite the fact that you are a straight-A student at the university, I do not believe it is a good idea to skip classes. You even requested a leave of absence for an extended period of time." Isabella had a pout on her face and seemed to be a bit pissed.She had been putting in long hours every day in an attempt to keep up with Henry's grades. She had no idea that he would be so unconcerned with the situation.'Requested a leave of absence?' Henry pondered.Although skipping

    "This is how rich people are being treated. It feels so great!" Henry muttered to himself, feeling a sense of satisfaction within him.It was his first time to enjoy the VIP passage.

Mr. Dalton told me that you can invite anyone you want, and the number is not limited, Daniel replied patiently. Sure enough, Ryan was as thoughtful as ever. He knew how to please people and make their lives comfortable.Because of this, Henry's impression of Ryan slightly improved. The show officially began at eight o'clock.The first car that came was a Mercedes-Benz GLS. It had a stable body, and it was spacious. Its price was more than one million dollars."l'm so lucky to see Ryan's car collection.

    "Do you have no shame? Only money matters to you. When he was impoverished, you dumped him. Now that he's got money, you want him back.""You only want him if it's beneficial to you. You're shameless." Immediately, the guests revealed sour faces.Kim was surprised to find out that Benjamin had been promoted to manager of the A.G.N Hotel. It seemed that he was telling the truth earlier.People were all blaming Kim. But she didn't pay attention to what they were saying.Wincing, she felt a severe ache on her leg Henry kicked her. She pleaded with Benjamin, "Benjamin, please accept my apologies. I've come to terms with the fact that I was mistaken. I sincerely apologize for any offense I may have caused." A pitiful expression flashed on her face."You said earlier that you don't know him. Where's your dignity?" Henry sneered with disgust."I didn't see his face earlier since it was too dark" Kim said as an excuse.Benjamin was a simple man, but that did not mean he was foolish. He was we

    "Don't say anything more. Please know that we can't possibly be together. Since your friends laughed at my friend, it's obvious that we are not the same,'' Benjamin said coldly."Benjamin, you can't be so heartless. Please drive here to pick me up. I can give myself to you in the car." Kim still wanted to seduce Benjamin with her body.Benjamin couldn't help laughing bitterly.A woman like her, who was greedy for money, was not worthy of his love at all."Okay, give me thirty minutes. I'll come to pick you up." After saying this, Benjamin hung up, turned off his phone, and threw it aside.But he didn't make a U-turn. Instead, he drove in the direction of A.G.N Hotel.He breathed a sigh of relief, and his eyes became sharp.At this moment, he felt that the heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders. He felt so light that he even sped up a lot."Thank you, sir," Benjamin said gratefully.Henry, sitting comfortably in the car, just smiled.Kim squatted at the entrance of Scorching Su

And after confirming that Henry was the one who donated ten million dollars to the school, the expression on his face instantly changed."Andrew, how can you ask me to expel a student for no reason? You don't have the right to do that."After harshly criticizing Andrew, Mr Jones wanted to send him away. He didn't want to dwell on this matter anymore.Andrew's one million dollars was nothing compared to Henry's ten million dollars.So he thought that instead of Andrew, only Henry should enjoy such a privilege.Andrew was surprised by Mr Jones' sudden change of attitude. In the past, he could let anyone disappear from this school whenever he wanted. Why did Mr Jones criticize him now instead? He didn't understand what was going on."But my father donated one million dollars to this school.""Bu

    "Good! I'm glad it hurts. Ha-ha! Break all his limbs! He deserves the utmost humiliation!" Andrew laughed evilly.Just then, a graceful figure emerged from the crowd.It was a slender girl with short hair, wearing casual clothes. Her eyes had a certain twinkle to them, and despite her casual attire, she looked like an angel as she walked towards them.There was a certain coldness to her angelic face.In Henry's eyes, there was only one way to describe this girl-she was extremely beautiful."Get back!" Henry gestured at her urgently."These people have weapons!""Oh, who's this gorgeous beauty?" Andrew couldn't tear his eyes away from her. As his body burned with desire, he barked, "Capture her!"But the members of the two gangs ignored him. They were just hit men, not Andrew's subordinates. Why should they listen to him?Most importantly, half of them didn't even know Andrew.But even they could see how beautiful this girl was. Some of the thugs closed in on her, weapons drawn, wanti

It's a brilliant idea to raise the housing price on the market using the school for enrichment. No one would return the houses because of their increased value."The executives nodded in agreement."It's human nature to want the better end of the deal.

Adrian became arrogant with Giovanni beside him.If people were only to speculate, they could most likely recognise him as the leader of the group."Fuck off!" Giovanni then went to the front and kicked Adrian aside.Naturally, Adrian bowed and smile at him apologetically. He was eager to keep on his good side.Despite Henry's presence, Giovanni stepped closer to Isabella and looked her up and down. It seemed that he completely and deliberately ignored Henry."Ha!
