"Hey kid, go throw out the trash. We're closed for the day." Henry heard his boss through the kitchen. He just finished washing the dirty dishes."Coming sir," he quickly replied, turning off the tap and drying his hands. He went to carry the dirt bag and trashed it outside."Here's you pay for the day. Don't forget to check in early tomorrow, it's your colleague's day off." His boss said, throwing 50$ at him like he would for a beggar. Then waved him off, dismissing him for the day.Henry quickly picked the money on the floor, collected his things and left the building.He worked part-time job as a waiter in a small local shop close to where he's living.He started jogging, not wanting to be late to his girlfriend's birthday party.He stop by a pastry shop staring at a cake."This is so pretty. Sofia will surely love this cake. I hope my wages would be enough to buy this."A sweet smile flashed across Henry Anderson's face as he stared at the cake he was holding.The heart on top of
"Come here, Henry." A recognizable and raspy voice sounded out at that very moment.It was his mother, Eleanor. She seemed exhausted and worn out. Despite only being in her forties, she had snow-white hair.His mother's strength seemed to have been depleted after speaking those few words.Henry rushed to her side when he heard her voice. He was moved by her plight and suggested to her, "It is time for you to go to sleep, Mom. The weather is awful, and it's best not to walk around."Eleanor took a big breath and waved her hand in the air. "Henry, you've matured a lot. There's something I want to tell you. Your father is still alive. George Anderson is his name.""George Anderson?" Henry was in disbelief and shock. "You said he was dead a long time ago. You didn't even tell me his name. Also, this is the name of the country's wealthiest man.""This isn't a coincidence. Your father is George Anderson, the country's wealthiest man and president of the Anderson Group!" Eleanor was honest w
"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
"This is my first time entering a five-star hotel. I never imagined that I would become the CEO of such a luxurious hotel. In the past, I didn't even dare to think about tasting the expensive lobster and steak served here.Now, I can eat those foods every day.Excitement was apparent on Henry's face as he relished the thought of being the owner of this five-star hotel.He was up all night thinking about his plans for the future.When he finally arrived at the A.G.N Hotel, Henry noticed the welcome party outside the building. It piqued his interest.He approached the gate of the hotel and saw a large sign on the wall. The hotel was closed for the time being, according to the notice.Henry was completely disregarded by the rest of the crowd. They assumed he was just a bystander.The only one that noticed him was Sofia, who was standing in front of the crowd. With a frown, she whispered to Donald, "Donald, Henry has come back."After turning around, Donald recognized Henry. With a sinist
The entire place fell silent. Noah began to gasp for breath, while everyone else held their breaths.Donald's heart began to race, and Sofia broke into a cold sweat. They were all praying that the general manager had only mistaken Henry for someone else, or that they were only having a nightmare.Noah, who had been standing stiff for so long, felt the glass in his hand suddenly become lighter.Suddenly, Henry took the glass from his hand. Overjoyed, Noah straightened his shoulders and his pale face became normal."Thank you very much for your mercy and forgiveness, Mr. Anderson." Taking out a handkerchief, Noah wiped away the sweat on his forehead.He had received a call from Christopher, George's butler, when he had been away on vacation.Christopher had told him that the new president would take office.Noah had been drinking with some pretty girls at that time, and he did not expect the new president to appear all of a sudden.Since he did not dare to delay any longer, he immediate
"I hate repeating my orders,'' said Henry. The security guards clenched their jaws in frustration. They didn't need to be terrified of Donald since they had George's son at their side.Henry merely told them to hold down Donald. Even if Henry's order was to beat up Donald, the guards would still willingly do it. After all, Donald was nothing compared to George.Immediately, two security guards stepped forward and grabbed Donald. With each of them holding one of Donald's arms, they pulled him back.In frustration, Donald yelled, "Unhand me, you bastards. I will make you pay for touching me." Donald was afraid to upset Henry, so he didn't say anything to him.However, it didn't mean that the guards could be rude to him."How dare you continue to act so haughty even though you've been fired?" Furious, a muscular security guard delivered a strong punch toward Donald's gut."Ahhh!" Donald screamed in agony, his lips gaping open in protest. He turned his head to see who had struck him. How
"Don't be alarmed. Please inform Noah if you are a victim of bullying. The issue may be brought to my attention if he does not remedy it." Henry was reminded of himself by Benjamin.Unfortunately, he had never had somebody stand out for him before.Benjamin happily nodded his head. He was a quiet person. He raised his chin in an attempt to show others that he was worthy of Henry's faith.Being able to lean on one another was a welcome feeling for them both.His mind wandered as he surveyed the approximately two-hundred individuals around him."When was the last time you got a raise?" Henry inquired."A few years ago. Since Donald was promoted to vice general manager, our salaries have remained flat. To reduce our pay and keep our wages at bay, he enacted several rules at work." An employee with a lot of experience mentioned it right away."Benjamin, please correct the staff regulations and erase all unnecessary terms." Benjamin immediately rushed to the office to update the rules for
At One o'clock at noonAt Stanley University, the sound of the final bell ringing was heard in Room 447.The sun was shining brightly. Although Henry rushed to his class, he was still late.By the time he arrived, the teacher had left, and many students were packing up to leave.The class representative was cleaning the board when she saw Henry standing by the door."Henry, how dare you skip classes? You were not like this before." The class representative, Isabella Isaac, was petite, and always wore her hair in a high ponytail.She was excellent at her studies, and was very kindhearted, so all the boys in the class were fond of her."Sorry, I had something urgent to deal with." Since Henry knew that he was in the wrong, he could not help but smile sheepishly."These lessons are very important. Find me in the library later in the afternoon, and I'll help you."Henry didn't have much interaction with Isabella. They were both equally good at studies, and they were like competitors in c
When Isabella left the office, the strange feeling of people looking at her disappeared at once.To calm herself down, she took a deep breath.Wondering who came to her, she glanced around until she noticed the person she'd been missing so much."Henry!" Isabella exclaimed with glee. Her eyes smiling along with her lipsShe was so excited to see him. Then, she looked around to make sure that there was nobody else around.Fortunately, they were alone here. Otherwise, she would feel embarrassed.Isabella walked up to Henry and asked, "which department are you in? Do you mind if I stop by your office during break times?"She was kind of timid, and Henry was the only one she knew in the company.In her opinion, it was more comfortable and safer to stay with an acquaintance.After pondering for a moment, Henry replied. "I'm the chairman's assistant."Isabella's eyes lit up and widened in adoration. "You really are the top student of our class! You're incredible Henry!""Sheesh! It may soun
Jason wiped the bead of sweat from his forehead and hurried back to the meeting room.He knocked on the door, entered the room, and sat back on his seat.Many of the executives have left by now. It seemed that Henry has assigned them to follow up on some task."I've already told you all the seat. Do you have any other suggestions?" The school's prototype design appeared on the screen behind Henry.Jason was surprised that they managed to agree upon so many things within the ten minutes he was downstairs.Henry was most thoughtful than most people, not to mention he was quite young.By now, the others had left."Mr Anderson, I've arranged a job for Miss Issac. I'm sorry for the mistake I've made sir. It's my fault." Jason remarked sincerely."Actually, it's not your fault. I didn't get the chance to explain the situation to you. Fortunately, your men remind us about it." Henry replied with a smile. He already felt like he lucked out this time. Otherwise, Isabella would have been let do
At the other end of the phone there was a newbie in the personnel department, her voice clear and confident."Hello, Mr Clark. The receptionist just told us that a girl named Isabella Isaac is here for an internship. We don't have any information about her. How should we deal with this?"The report irked Jason. "Why do you have to ask me such a stupid question? I'm in a meeting now. If she's not in the system, then she's not our company intern. Just let her go!" He barked. He hung up the call and went back to the meeting roomWith an apologetic smile, Jason said to Henry, "Mr Anderson, I'm sorry. One of my subordinate called me. I told them I was in a meeting, but they still asked me questions that didn't matter."Henry asked casually, "What happened?'Jason relayed to him what his staff's concern was. "Besides, we are not recruiting interns recently. Maybe someone gave her the false information!" Jason exclaimed.On the other hand, Henry didn't think it was that simple. Ordinary peop
Henry opened the car door and stepped out. He couldn't help feeling nervous since it was his first time meeting an official. The solemnity of the place failed to put him at ease.A woman came by the door, wearing a black uniform, accentuating her captivating beauty.She exuded elegance. He'd hair pulled up high, away from her face, looked exquisite.Her loose clothes couldn't hide her curvy figure."Mr Anderson, the mayor is waiting for you in his office. This way, please." Olivia escorted him.Immediately, Henry recognized her voice and knew that it was Olivia. Henry nodded and signaled to Archer to stay on the lookout.Then, he followed Olivia to that mayor's office.He looked around and noticed there were traces of peeling on the damp walls.The pipe was leaking. A faint rotten smell filled the air.The building was losing its race with time and badly needed repairs.Olivia noticed Henry frowning, which was worried her, for she didn't want him to have any poor impressions. Trying
A faint smile appeared on Henry's face as he watched them leave.It was not uncommon for people to not care about something that did not affect their interest.Had it been the opposite, they would bare their fangs and do whatever it would take them to protect their stake.Henry and the leader arrived at the meeting room on the top floor, preparing for the meeting about their community project.Brent said in admiration, "Mr Anderson, you are indeed a resourceful man. 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. Mr Anderson has taken advantage of it, but it was rather unexpected!" Jason explained.Ryan added, "Mr Anderson is naturally good at it."He was very excited.Given time, Henry might be able to accomplish great things as Christopher had said.However, Brent, who was in charg
Toby swallowed his saliva and said, "Jim claimed that he poisoned a building site for an Dale Building community. At least ten employees perished. On the one hand, we are able to express our rage. On the other hand, If the people who want to buy the house know that someone died there, they weren't going to buy them. They will very certainly seek a return of the deposit, and the community's house prices will certainly fall. It will be a major setback for Dale Building's capital chain. Henry is going to be in a lot of trouble once the Dale Building is in disarray.Jim nodded. Douglas was a bit disgusted because of the two lumps of fat on Jim's cheeks were wobbling. However, this strategy was excellent. As a result, Douglas said enthusiastically, "you did an excellent job. You have finally come up with a plan that will irritated Henry. Fantastic! I will give you a couple of vacation days to relax!"Jim was overjoyed. He was giddy with delight as he danced. However, Jim's conduct irritate
Archer took immediate action.An automobile pulled up in front of Henry in less than two minutes."Get baçk to dale Building as quickly as possible," Henry remarked as he climbed into the vehicle.Archer casual demeanor was quickly replaced with a stern one.He adjusted his seat, gripping the steering wheel tightly, and pushed the accelerator pedal all the way down.Archer's old automobile had been left behind after the gas can explosion the last time.In every way, the new automobile worked well.Even though there was a lot of traffic on the road, Archer maintained driving smoothly and passing.They arrived at the Dale Building's gate ten minutes later. Henry stormed into the chairman's office on the top floor.All the department heads were waiting for him in the office.Ryan, who didn't attend such things, was also present. Henry slammed his fist on the desk and yelled, "Tell me! What the hell has happened? Was is by accident or n deliberate act by someone?" Ryan offered Henry
Isabella held Henry's hand tightly. She was so nervous that her body couldn't stop trembling.What happened just now really freaked her out. Moreover, Henry's friend actually assumed that she was his girlfriend.For a moment, Isabella was flustered and pleased at the same time. Her face was red, and her arms leaned against Henry's arm. Feeling the softness and warmth on his arm, Henry looked at Isabella who looked like she was still in shock.Then, he asked in a teasing tone, "what are you thinking about? Do you realise you're holding me a little too tightly?" Hearing this, Isabella came to her senses. She quickly loosen her grip and muttered embarrassed, "what? I'm not... What nonsense are you talking about?""Haha!" Henry burst out laughing upon seeing her cute reaction.On the other hand, Isabella was so embarrassed that she really wanted to let go of Henry's arm. However, Henry grabbed her hand.Feeling the warmth on her hand, Isabella's face blushed all the more. It was as if t
"This is Giovanni from Bloody Monster. If you go to Starry City, you'll definitely hear about him. Ask around, but make sure you don't wet yourself!" 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! She's certainly pretty. Well done, Adrian. You will have your chance after we've finished with her."Isabella felt a shiver down her smile. All the colour on her face quickly got washed off. She grabbed Henry's shirt and hid herself behind him.Right then, Henry clearly felt that she was trembling in fear. He didn't like that this insolent man put Isabella in cold sweat. The n
