Chapter 3

"I will be controlling everyone's future, and I will also be as wealthy as I have always dreamed of!"

Closing his eyes, Henry took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.

Something about him seemed to have changed.

It was his hope for the future that was rekindled after a long difficult life of poverty.

Now, he felt a lot more confident than before.

All of a sudden, Henry opened his eyes. There was a hint of sparkle, a strong sense of determination, and an indomitable will in them.

"He started from scratch, and it took him decades to achieve great success. But now that I already have the foundation that he laid out for me, l can do a lot better than him!" Henry said slowly, but his tone was very firm.

After all, a man's promise was comparable to the value of gold. And Henry made his promise now. However, he still found it difficult to address that man as his father.

Christopher left his phone number and left.

Holding the black credit card, which was still warm to the touch, Henry felt like it was all a dream.

He had been a poor man living in the slum, but now, he was rich. He was determined to make the ones that insulted him pay for what they did to him. No one would dare to look down upon him now.

"Mr. Anderson, I have done everything that you asked me to do."

"Wel. How are they doing? And how is their life?" There was a long moment of silence at the other end of the line. George's shaky breaths indicated that he was still suffering from guilt over leaving his son and wife.

George, who was known as a cold and ruthless business tycoon, had never been as nervous as he was now.

"He accepted the gift you gave him, and he has agreed to take over the business in the hotel." Christopher did not answer him. Judging from his conversation with Henry, he knew that Henry shared several characteristic traits with George. He wanted to pay back people for insulting him.

"That's good! I was really worried that he might refuse. Anyway, I am glad he did!"

Christopher breathed a sigh of relief and chucked softly, feeling like a weight had been lifted off his chest.

"He is still holding a grudge against you, though. And I am afraid that he may…"

"I understand, and I will make it up to them slowly. So what if he becomes a playboy? It doesn't matter to me. However, if he's capable, I believe that he will be the perfect successor to the Anderson Group."

If a person who was not wise or had a good vision for the future became rich overnight, they would mostly become playboys. Walter didn't expect too much from his son.

However, his heart was filled with some expectations, just like any father's.

The next morning, the sun was shining brightly, and the A.G.N Hotel was standing tall, compared to all the other buildings in the dazzling heart of the city.

And every morning, the employees would come early to clean the hotel until it was sparkling.

About two hundred people were waiting at the door, from security guards to the vice general manager. Two long rows of people flanked on either side of the red carpet that led to the front desk of the hotel. The one standing in the front was the vice general manager, Donald, who had taken away Henry's ex-girlfriend.

As he waited for the new president to welcome him, he was holding a bottle of the most expensive champagne he could find in the hotel.

The hotel staff began to whisper to each other.

"What kind of man is the new president? Is he a middle-aged man or an old man?"

"This new president must have an unusual relationship with Mr. Anderson. I have rarely ever seen our vice general manager being so respectful to someone."

"Don't talk nonsense. I am sure that the new president must be an important person even if he's not friends with Mr. Anderson."

"Sofia told me about it. Who knows whether it's true or not?"

The moment people heard that, they turned to look at the beautiful woman in the crowd.

She was dressed in a black suit, which made her seem very capable and shrewd. Her round and curvy butt attracted many men there.

She was Henry's ex-girlfriend, Sofia.

When she heard the crowd's discussion, she smiled proudly.

After all, she loved the attention she was getting from them.

With a hint of contempt in her eyes, Sofia said indifferently, ''Don't worry. It's completely true. I heard it from the vice general manager." Donald, who was the vice general manager of the hotel, supported her to become one of the lobby managers.

As soon as she took over the position, she began earning almost twenty thousand dollars a month. She was still a college student, and she only worked there part-time. There were many employees who were jealous of her.

"Sofia is so beautiful, and her words are absolutely reliable!"

"I''m a huge admirer, Sofia. I am definitely going to need your help and guidance someday."

Some employees seized the opportunity to flatter her.

And Sofia was happy to hear that. She was overjoyed to see that her difficult days with Henry were now over, and her life was finally exactly the way she wanted it to be.

Moreover, she had achieved it all on her own.

At this moment, the man they were all waiting for got out of his taxi.

Henry was dressed formally in a crisp white shirt and black suit pants.

He had purchased the suit to wear to his neighbor's wedding.

And because he did not have much time on his hands, he had not been able to shop for the event.

"I will be starting a new life from today."
