Henry sighed as he realized it. Of course she was his only family he had left, so he would have done anything to ensure she was safe.

She held his hands. "Also, I think you need a car. I can't see you entering taxis, they are too risky, Henry, you might even enter one which isn't a taxi but a trap!"

Henry nodded, because what she said was actually true. He had seen and heard cases where people fall into traps from taxis. Now, he needs a customized car that will serve him.

Stella suggested: "I will send one to you at the hotel or call Clifford to bring one."

"No, he is busy and I don't need one from the White Group. You know the White Group has its special logo and does only black cars, so I will purchase one from another garage."

"Alright," she agreed. Henry nodded and left the hospital.

The White Group family manufactured cars which have a prominent "WG" label installed at the front of the car. Anyone who drives their cars would automatically be feared and respected because only people from first-generation or second-generation families could afford their cars.

The head of the family drives a special, customized Black Mercedes Benz, it's a kind of a tradition in the family.

Everyone in the city adored the Whites for their uniqueness and the kind of power they held in this city. And this increased the number of enemies he had. They successfully killed his dad and now targeting his life and his mum, he must protect what he has.

He picked up his phone as he dialed Clifford's number. "Hello young master," he replied.

"Send me an address of a car dealer agency, I want to purchase one." Henry ordered.

"I will send one that White Group is close with, and you can also contact the manager. He has no problem," he said as Henry cut the call.

He took a taxi after the address was sent to him. When he reached the agency, he looked at the boldly written name on the board, TORZO, the name of the agency.

He chuckled, strolling inside the compound. The guards outside respectfully bowed their heads and let him in.

The first view of the showrooms wowed him. Everywhere seemed like a club with neon sparkling lights, making the cars shine even brighter than they looked.

Henry took his first step inside, but was almost deafened by the loud chatter of the agents. "Hey, Grace, did you hear? The manager just told me that Henry White would be arriving, can you imagine????" A lady squealed with glee, her face flushing red like an over ripe tomato.

"Really?" Grace, the girl she spoke to, gasped in shock. "You mean the son of the late Reuben White? This would mean big business for us! Is he coming now?" She remarked.

Henry felt interested in their conversation and began to approach them. Aside from that, other agents that were there heard her and also wanted to be the first to welcome him.

"Yes," the first girl, Bianca, answered. "In fact, we should be on the lookout for him!" They began to search the whole place, their eyes scanning for the legendary Young Mr. White'. Even the agents close by also joined in the search, if he comes, they must receive him first.

Few years ago, he was one of the biggest topics in town and all women would go crazy just to be with him. But he was rumored to have never been with a woman.

Bianca suddenly speculated: "Oh Lord, I wonder what he'll wear…. A Dormeuil suit? An Armani one? Or no, he could choose to look cool and get the latest Nike Jordan shoes and drip outfit! Ohhh myyy dayyysss!!!"

By that time, Henry already got to their side. "Hi," he called out.

He believed that they should be able to recognize him. However, they didn't give him face. In fact, it seemed like they were avoiding him.

Henry frowned, but cleared his throat. "Uhm, hello," he said loudly.

"What's your problem?! Can't you see we're busy?" Bianca hissed. She ignored him the first time because she did not want to end up missing Henry White and get occupied with someone average.

Besides, he didn't even look like someone worth her time! "Wait, who are you?" Grace, with more patience, asked.

"I am…"

"Hold on, Mr. Neo said the new car washer will be arriving today. I think he's the one," she gave Henry a look of disgust before saying, "follow me."

Henry frowned. What were they on about? Car washer? "Sorry but I wasn't sent by anyone. I came here to get a car."

The two ladies exchanged glances before turning back to him. They gazed at the hoodie-sweatpants combination he wore, before releasing a light laugh.

"Well, we're sorry, we can't attend to you. We are expecting someone hundred times more relevant than you are," she called another agent by their side who also was looking out for Young Mr. White. The man cursed and felt like crying as he approached Bianca. She was the head agent so he couldn't reject her order.

"You, take care of this thing," she said, then left with Grace.

The man cursed again, glancing at Henry with a very furious glare. If he had gotten to the owner of the White Group, his commission would have been huge, but now, for this cheap thing…

"Hey, what do you want!" The man asked in a cold tone.

"Why are you being rude?" Henry could not hold it any longer.

"Ha! Look, you make me lose a good customer, and you want me to lick your feet?"

Henry was left lost, and confused as they all gave him the cold shoulder. Do they even realize the person they were all expecting was him, standing right in front of them?

    He decided to ignore their characters and go straight to the point. He would sort it out with the manager later. "Let me see the latest brands of cars you have." The man threw the paper containing the list at him but he quickly caught it with his hand. He balled his fists, his anger about to burst. But this place had a lot of dignitaries and if he exposed himself, it would not be good."See, the cheapest brand of car there is sedan Toyota Corolla 2023, and it cost $20,234.99. I hope you can afford it!""And who says I'm buying the cheapest one?" Henry was surprised at his dense mindset. Even if he wasn't the Henry White they expected, what made him think he could conclude that quickly?"Isn't it obvious? Just be quick and get the hell out of my sight!" The man huffed.His anger was on edge, at first he wanted to buy only a cheap sedan that would be fit for his current identity, but now, he was going to purchase the most expensive sedan!He checked the list and spotted the most expens

    "What?" The message hit Henry like a block. He lowered his brows and checked the amount in his account and discovered it was reading "$35.73" . But what about the money transferred to him? Then he realized that it would actually take three days for it to process! Shit! Why didn't he think of this since? "Oi, I thought he said he could purchase it? He's all bluff and no guts." "Maybe the agent is right. He must be mad." "Yuck, he had the guts to make mouth when he had nothing." More and more people dropped their opinions, making Henry more stranded. He was still thinking of what to do when Bianca's voice entered his ear. "So, how do you want to be beaten? Your face or your legs should be broken first? It will be cute to see your perfect nose get fractured!" She said with an evil grin. "Grace, call the bulkiest security guards!" Seconds later, she returned with three extremely heavy men looking ready to kill. Before they could reach Henry, he shouted "Wait, let me text someone f

    As Henry took the car out of the place, he checked the time and it was 2:47pm. He looked down at his dress and discovered he looked homeless. His dress was stained with dust from the pursuit, and his hair and face looked disheveled. Then, he realized he needed a clean haircut.So, he headed back to the hotel to change out of his dress before he would go to the barber's shop. He came down from the car and got into the hotel. He noticed a lot of cars parked in the garage like there was an event.He got into the hotel and asked the receptionist what was going on, and she said a group of elite members of the society were gathered, having a private lunch in their restaurant.He nodded and took the elevator to his room. On his way into his room, a loud voice made him stop."Young master!" The owner of the hotel, Aaron Crimson, called after him. He was a man in his late forties and he had a reputation for looking over the top at all times. Five bodyguards followed him.As soon as he reached

    "Sh*t! How dare you? I can buy your entire family with just my neck chain!" Sage bragged in anger, veins popping on his reddened face.Even Irene didn't see this insult coming. She gazed at Henry with proud eyes, silently rooting for him."You could buy my family? Wow, I never knew you know a lot about my family! Look, I give you two options: apologize to this girl, or else I'll make sure you regret seeing me today!" Henry said."Oh my God, I'm so scared!" Sage faked fear and began to snicker crazily. "Hehe, Look at this rascal dressed like a clown. What can you do?" He sized him up, "Apart from being poor, you also lack the strong body to defeat me in a fight. Tell me, what will I regret?"Henry scoffed inwardly. He had a fairly built body, soft facial features, making him appear vulnerable at first. But his strength was surely on par with any WWE wrestler.However the man in front of him was strongly built but he didn't need anyone to tell him he was a weakling in terms of strength.

    The bodyguards resumed beating him, ensuring all parts of his body were bruised and wounded. "Any man who beats up his girlfriend does not deserve to live! When you are done, throw him into the garbage dump outside the hotel!" "No, wait! Please…. Please, I beg you! Let me go, please!" Sage hollered in between kicks and punches, as he was being tossed about like a piece of paper. Henry acted like nothing was happening and looked over at Irene. "Follow me, miss. You're not supposed to see such an eyesore." "Huh?" Irene jolted. She fearfully left his side and followed Henry. "Thanks a lot for your help, sir." "It's okay, is he your boyfriend?" He asked. "Isn't it obvious?" She scoffed in a sad tone. Henry could feel the pain in her voice. It was clear that the relationship was toxic and this wasn't the first time he was harassing her. She gave him a slight bow and headed for her room. She was a pretty lady in her early twenties, with a v-shaped face and a slim figure. Her dark loc

    "Huh?" "What's this guy saying?" "Is he okay?" "For free? In which barber's shop?" The barbers' shocked gasps and reactions rang in the air. Everyone thought he was joking or bluffing."Ah! I know your problem, you probably think this is the 20-dollar barber shop you used to go for a haircut? Look well, young man, you're in ABS! Aficionado Barbing Studio!" Gideon burst into laughter trying to hurt Henry's feelings.However, Henry kept a grim look. "I mean it, I have connections and I'll get a haircut for free. Watch and learn."Gideon erupted, his fury at peak. Why was he so hard to hurt? And before, he acted more vulnerable, allowing him to bully him as he wished. Why did he change? "Dammit, if you can get a haircut for free, I'll kneel before you and call you dad!"Henry was quite taken aback by his statement. "Are you sure about this? Because I don't easily forget bets." He said with a cold aura.Gideon felt a bit intimidated and reasoned he might be serious, but later brushed it o

    Henry and Gilbert faced each other with smiles. "Long time no see, Henry. Allow me to give you a special private treatment in my inner chamber.""Sure, no problem," Henry replied, following him into the spacious office that looked like a separate room on its own. He headed to the high-end luxury room made to resemble a barbershop but with more facilities.Henry sat down and told him the hairstyle he wanted, and he skillfully began his work on the hair. He trimmed the edges and began the burst fade, and at the end the haircut came out perfect. "Young master looks 10 years younger!" Gilbert couldn't help but flatter."Don't flatter me, Gilbert," Henry criticized. He knew he looked younger, but 10 years younger was too exaggerated. He was only in his twenties, of he aged ten years back, would he suddenly become a child?! Gilbert realized he was unhappy and hurriedly corrected himself. "Ah, my apologies."Henry shot him a look, before saying, "enough with the formalities. Aren't we cl

    The next day, Henry woke up early and began to prepare for work. He wore a not-too-expensive suit that did not attract too much attention, and white sneakers. When he was done, he got into his car and headed to the White Group. He alighted and took his steps into the large company, his expression strict and calculative. His first destination was Clifford's office so that he could register his name in the list of workers. He took the lift to the two-hundred-and-fiftieth floor, stopping at the vice president's office. He barged the door open. Clifford was busy with work, but the second he saw that it was Henry that barged into his office, he stood up immediately. "Young master, it's a pleasure to see you this morning!" He greeted with a polite smile. "You too, Cliff," Henry said, taking his seat. "I came for the registration." Clifford smiled at his cold attitude. He could remember how even more cold Reuben's attitude was to him, but deep down, they were the kindest people. He t

    Henry also once felt that Caeser was the boss but then again, Simon mentioned the fact that his boss was after Caesar and he also met him when he then confirmed that he was sent a life threatening letter for stopping the weapons from entering inside Green Hill city. He scoffed. "I'm definitely sure that he isn't, Caeser is just Stella's friend who wants nothing than the power of White Group to win the next election coming up" The guard nods his head as Henry picked up his phone and dialed Irene's number and That time she picked the call. "Hey Henry, lots of things happened but I'm fine" Henry was confused as concern filled up on his face, he was already reaching his room as he opened the door awaiting her response.

"I know the answer to that already but why don't you just go rest?" She immediately grabbed him by the collar as she was just an inch closer to him feeling his breathe. "Just because we fucked doesn't mean you have the right to question me, it was a huge mistake from my side and also I think I would block your fucking number..." Before she could finish what she was saying he kissed her lips. "It was fun right?" He asked as she immediately removed her hands from his collar the cringed really hard that she felt like taking a knife and slit her throat. Immediately she left Henry's house that day, she got a call from Quo to come meet her if she h

    "I know"Henry muttered but Victor and Samson just realized it.How are they going to share the room, because there was no way one of the them would sleep on the couch, but Henry already solved this issue so he wasn't worried about it."Just continue showing us around please" The man nods his head, what was on his mind was that he would sent some boys to bring in atleast a two bed bunk so that the last two persons can sleep on them,but since Henry didn't bother he refused to bring that up again, he was just focusing on showing them each of the rooms.Henry smiled because the room was big enough and has a comfy bed, it's soft and was really a cool one, all the rooms were cleaned very well, and arranged properly, even the toilet Henry expected that it won't be that convincing but still it was okay, nothing like it was manageable, he was grateful for that, he knows that if he would tell Clifford or snap it and how it to him he would immediately change the guesthouse or atleast they will

    Samson's eyes widened in surprise, he wasn't told that it was this long, the only thing Henry told him was that, they were going to find Simon who was also the cause of his brother's death and he was determined to find him at all cost, his brother has done a lot for him so atleast what he could for him is to find his killer and maybe put him in cell or kill him.

    "who?" She asked as she then thought that it was Henry since he was the only person he knew that would come looking for her at the office and maybe to tell her for the fact that he wasn't going to be around."The manager Clifford" Her eyes widened as she shifted herself from the bed and sat down at the edge of the bed. "But why? Did I do something wrong?""Not really but though he was like you should come to my office immediately, he sounded so serious though"Her heart sank as she began to think where she made a mistake, but she could grasp anything bad she had ever done, she has always been a good lady with her staffs and also the director of the sales department."Look you shouldn't worry about anything okay?""Are you sure?" Irene asked because she was doubting it."Of course, if anything bad happens all of us wouldn't agree to it, you have been a good lady to all of us so I think you shouldn't worry at all, or was they something you did that I'm not aware of?

When they reached her house, he came down even before the driver tries coming down to open the door for him."I will be right back" Henry muttered casually so they won't see that he was so tensed up.As he walked into her small apartment, he knocked first but there was no response, he was about to say it's him but he doesn't know where she was at that moment.He took a deep breathe as he knocked again and this time he heard a sound of a key shaking close to the door as it got opened. Irene gazed up at him with her jaw clenched and her eyebrows lowered and was almost to mutter a word but then it was Henry as she chooses to calm down, her eye lit up then she slowly smiled. "Come in" Henry hesitated for a moment before he came inside, he looked thoroughly to make sure that the mat

    Immediately Henry spotted him sitting down on the staircase, he walked really fast to his side, victor saw him coming as he stood with his laptop and a school bag he carried in his hand."So you are all ready right?" Henry asked as he nods his head. He was putting on a baggy jeans and a hoodie, it was winter already so that why he was dressing like that.After he opened the door and entered inside, he walked really fast upstairs like taking two stairs so he would be fast. He reached his room as he began to arrange some of his things inside his back to embark on this journey, he really hoped that it would be a success and won't end up taking lives.After he was done arranging his things, he came out of his room then as he sighed Priscilla's room he decided to check whether she was inside so that he would be able to tell her a good bye, she has his spare keys so they won't be any problem.As he peeped through the window, no one was inside, it was literally empty, he sighed as he knew

A call came through his phone as he planned on dropping it inside his pocket then he saw the caller ID which was Ms. Stella and then picked it up."Ok already coming to pick you up, I hope you are okay because you weren't picking up your calls, Caeser said the meeting was over" Henry placed his left hand on his forehead and closed his eyes, he was actually dealing with them Ryan and Clara and that's why he didn't eve

    "I think you should mind the way you talk to my wife Henry or else.."Henry blurted. "Or else what? And what did I say to her that's bad now? I don't really like the fact that you make me seem like the bad guy here""And of course you are, you have changed and she is trying to tell you how bad that is...""Is she my mum?"This made Ryan speechless, he just stared at Henry, clenching his fists and controlling himself not to give him a mark on his face. "And also isn't it you guys who stopped at my business? Why can't you just leave? Not that I'm holding you, the fuck is wrong with all of you, and what would you gain from insulting me, huh?"Clara scoffed. "Because you deserved it Henry" "Does that make any sense to you? Clara I was fucking good to you right? And I make sure you enjoyed my company, I stayed by your side and make sure that I would bear anything that you do to me, remember raining insults on me during your birthday night and I literally had to apologize, huh?"
