The Astonishing Rise Of Hector Henderson CHAPTER 64
Julia's words pierced through the room, loud enough for anyone outside the door to hear. “How can you lie about Madison’s divorce?!” the old lady yelled, glaring at Abigail. “If Julia wasn't here, I would have believed you!” Gasps echoed among the guests gathered nearby, who had been listening intently through the door. A murmur spread through the group as they exchanged stunned looks. Paul snickered at the absurdity of it. “I don't think that's possible, Auntie. She stood up for him not too long ago and even tried to get him back into the party after he’d been kicked out.” “He’s right,” one of the guests whispered. “Madison wouldn’t do that.” “Paul is right,” Julia added, her voice firm. “She can’t divorce him silently unless there’s an important reason to. You are lying!” Abigail glared at Julia. “What do you know?! Can't you just shut up and let me speak?!” “Why would I?” Julia snapped back. “You’re trying to deceive Grandma, and I’m not going to let that happen!” The old la

Abigail stepped forward, her face flushed with a mix of embarrassment and frustration. "It's no joke, Madison. Everyone here heard it. You agreed to divorce Hector and marry Dan. Stop pretending otherwise."She hadn’t expected Madison to speak so openly after hearing about it from her grandmother. Abigail thought Madison would quietly agree and discuss it with her in private.Madison let out a dry laugh. "I don't recall agreeing to any such thing. Dan, care to enlighten me on when this miraculous agreement occurred?"Dan hesitated for a moment but quickly recovered, plastering a confident smile on his face. "Madison, you don't need to deny it. We were talking about it yesterday. You told me you were ready to move on from this... phase of your life.""How come I don't remember saying anything like that?" Madison questioned. "I spent all of yesterday at the office handling work. I didn’t even leave until this morning. When exactly did we have this conversation about divorcing Hector?"Da

The serious look on her face matched the tension of the moment. She peered at him like he had something on his face.‘Is this what an interview looks like?’ he thought.An influencer? He had no idea she even knew about Meira. Meira was the one who was an influencer.“Did you put tabs on me?” he questioned, arching his brow.Madison flinched, her eyes widening. She was clearly taken by his question—he could tell from the look on her face that she hadn’t expected it.“No. I wasn’t putting tabs on you,” she lied, wrapping her arms around herself.“How did you know she was an influencer?” Hector asked, wanting to tease her.He wasn’t mad at her for sending someone after him. Even though he had someone following him, they hadn’t been able to discover his real identity.Talk about someone terrible at their job.“Well, I watched the live stream and recognized your shirt,” Madison lied smoothly.He arched his brow, clearly not believing her.“I was bored and decided to watch some live streams,

A few minutes later, the two male staff members she had found were running toward the office, one almost tripping on his shoelace.‘Why did he call us?’ The one with messy brown hair said, his gaze serious. ‘He just joined the company. Am I getting fired already?’The one who had just tripped on his shoelace had curly brown hair, and their faces were identical. The twins, Akitomo and Aritomo Higasa worked in the brainstorming department, creating ideas and strategies to help the company grow. Akitomo was optimistic and proactive, while Aritomo was cautious and detail-focused, making them a strong team.‘Is the company running out of resources or going bankrupt? I haven’t been paid my salary yet,’ he thought.‘Is he going to fire us because we were a minute late for work today?’‘Is he some kind of spoiled brat who doesn’t know how to take care of a business?’They both pictured him in an expensive suit with piercings on his brows and ears. The mere thought of him yelling at them in th

Hector got on his scooter and put on his helmet. He looked tired after listening to the twins talk for so long. Since their idea was one of the easiest they had come up with, they had piled on countless side addresses.Sighing, Hector tilted his head from side to side, stretching his neck to feel some relief.“Now, all I have to do is buy a building or rent one?”He thought about it. If he bought a building and Madison got involved, she might find out. However, renting wasn’t ideal either.Buying a building seemed like the better option, so he headed over to a store specializing in buildings suitable for a restaurant.Parking his scooter in the lot, he was reminded of his old, worn-out one. He felt grateful to Meira for buying him a new one. His first scooter had been something he saved up for over a long time.As Hector walked into the building, all the salespeople turned to look at him.Though he was dressed in a suit, it was a simple one that anyone could wear. They scowled at him b

Hector wasn’t in the mood to beat around the bush or convince anyone that he could afford the building. Without a word, he pulled out his bank card. Since the conversation began, one person had tried to stop the others from mocking Hector, but they hadn’t listened to him.The other staff members who had insulted him were taken aback by the card, regret flashing in their eyes. Yet, they seemed too stunned to utter a word.Hector pointed to the youngest salesperson. “You! Attend to me,” he ordered.The young man flinched, his eyes widening in surprise. He wasn’t the only one stunned; the others, who had mocked Hector, froze, their gazes glued to the black card in his hand.“Is that a black card?” Bobby exclaimed, his eyes round with shock.“It’s really a black card!” the first saleswoman shouted.“He had a black card this whole time while we insulted him?” the second saleswoman stammered, her face turning pale. “Does that mean he’s rich?”“Did we just insult a rich man?”The card gleamed

Upon hearing the man’s words, Hector still ignored him. “You should get the documents ready, Sam.”Hector’s words urged Sam to proceed with the preparation of the documents, further annoying the man whose question had just been ignored.“I just asked if you were ignoring me?!” the man yelled. “I told you I wanted the house, and you should stop acting like you could afford it! Aren’t I trying to save you from the embarrassment of being unable to afford an ordinary building?”Sighing, Hector glanced at the man. “I never asked you that, though. I already told you I could pay for the building. You’re the one acting like I couldn’t.”The staff looked on, unable to stop the argument. They had seen Hector’s black card and knew he could pay for it, but the man—an important company client—was someone they couldn’t afford to offend.“You dress cheaply and don’t even have a car! I saw you get here on a freaking scooter!” the man snarled. “And you’re telling me you can afford this building when yo

Hector glanced at Sam, who was holding the signed documents with a satisfied smirk. Then his gaze returned to the man.“Since you and your son are so interested in judging appearances, here’s what I’ll have you do,” Hector said.He gestured to the spotless showroom floor. “You’ll clean this entire space—on your hands and knees—until it’s spotless. I’ll even provide the cleaning supplies. Oh, and you’ll do it while wearing a sign that says, ‘I underestimated someone richer than me.’”The man’s face turned a deep shade of red. “That’s ridiculous! You can’t make me—”“You agreed to the terms of the deal,” Hector interrupted, his voice cold. “I didn’t force you into it. Now, unless you’d like to explain to everyone here why you’re breaking your word, I suggest you get started.”The staff exchanged amused glances, clearly on Hector’s side but trying to maintain their professional demeanor. They stayed silent, watching everything unfold.The man’s son, however, wasn’t as composed. “You can’t

“Huh?” The room fell silent, and all eyes turned to Hector. Everyone stared at him, their eyes wide with disbelief. “Did he just say what I think he did?” a woman in an evening gown asked. “Did he just tell Paul that he’d been scammed?” “Who does he think he is, saying stuff like that?” “Is he tired of living in this family?” Paul turned to Hector, his glare sharp enough to cut glass. “What did you just say?” he demanded. “How dare you claim it’s fake and that I was scammed?! This is a necklace I bought for Grandma to wear as a family heirloom!” Hector reached out to take the bracelet to make his point, but Paul smacked his hand away and pulled the box closer. “This is a gift for Grandma. How dare you try to touch it with your filthy hands?! Didn’t you hear me say it was just recently released?
