“Of course.” Mr. Falls stated firmly.
“I want to initiate a transaction for the transfer of assets and I would love to withdraw some cash,” Henry said. “Also, I’ll need responses because I’ve got some questions to ask. This is my first time doing this.” He added.
Mr. Falls arched a brow. “And how much in total are we talking about?”
Henry cocked his head. “I think 10 billion dollars.”
Mr. Falls sprung from his chair. It was the second time he had done that. The first time was when he saw the voucher. He began to stammer.
“10 billion? Mr. Parker that’s way above our pay grade and since the inception of this bank, I’m not sure if a transaction has occurred.”
Henry said nothing.
“Why don’t you give me a moment?” Mr. Falls requested and quickly pulled out his phone from one of the table cabinets. “Let me give the CEO a call.”
Henry nodded in agreement. Mr. Falls stood up and quickly dashed out.
Meanwhile, Stacey was holding a small tray with a cup of coffee on it and was headed towards Mr. Fall’s office when she saw him at a corner beside the door. He was facing the wall and was on the phone. Stacey had no idea what he was talking about but she was able to pick some words from Mr. Parker. Some of the words she heard were 10 billion dollars and transfer of assets.
She sighed and was about to aim for the door when she saw Mr. Falls nodding repeatedly as if the person he was speaking to on the phone was right before him.
“Yes, CEO.” Stacey heard Mr. Falls.
Whoever that boy was, Stacey concluded that he must be a big shot for Mr. Falls to initiate the CEO into the matter.
She took a deep breath and walked into the office. When she saw Henry, she began to have flashes of how she had treated him earlier, and at that point, Stacey felt that she was on the verge of losing her job. She quickly threw her gaze to the floor.
It then dawned on her that she was supposed to hand over the coffee to Henry. She began to walk up to the desk with her hands trembling. She finally placed the tray on the table ensuring she didn’t spill the content and then moved aside while her hands kept trembling.
Henry grabbed the coffee and took a sip. He gave a satisfactory nod. Stacey felt at ease for a while.
She turned to the door and realized that it was still shut. Mr. Falls was still on the phone outside. Stacey quickly hurried toward Henry and fell to her knees.
Henry turned toward her and noticed that her face was pale, unlike the first time he saw her when he walked into the bank.
Stacey joined her palms together before Henry like she was praying to him. “Mr. Parker.” She began with tears welling up in her eyes. “Please forgive me. It’s my entire fault. Please don’t tell Mr. Falls anything.”
“Stacey, what are you doing?” Mr. Falls yelled from the door. He had just ended his call and had barged in. “Let him go!”
“I’m sorry sir.” Stacey apologized to Mr. Falls.
“How dare you bother Mr. Parker?” Mr. Falls yelled at her. He pointed outside. “Get out.”
Stacey didn’t move an inch. She knew that if she dared step out, she wouldn’t be called back to work the next day. Instead, she crawled toward Henry and attempted to grab his sleeve. She continued to beg bitterly. “Mr. Parker, I swear to God it wasn’t my intention to cause you any trouble earlier. I’m so sorry.”
Henry dropped his cup of coffee on the table and faced Stacey. “That’s okay.” He said. He had wanted to make things difficult for Stacey because of the way she treated him but now, his mind had changed. He was human after all.
He paid attention to Stacey and noticed that she was hugging her silk shirt desperately and the tears she had been fighting to hold back were already rolling down her cheeks. Henry sighed.
Yes, Stacey had been mean to him but was it necessary to get down to her level? It was not worth it. Henry ruled out.
Again, he sighed and then looked Stacey straight in the face. “You can leave. I do not take this matter to heart.”
Stacey leaped with joy. Henry gave a faint smile.
Stacey bowed and began to thank Henry. She hurried out.
Mr. Falls shook his head.
Henry turned around, wondering about the power of money. Indeed, money could change the fate of an ordinary person and he was just the perfect example.
Henry then heard a hearty laughter behind him. “Mr. Henry. I was looking forward to seeing you.”
When Henry turned around, he saw a lively old man at the door, dressed in a black tuxedo. The man was grinning so widely that Henry thought his cheeks would hurt. The man was about 70 years old and his grey hair was neatly combed. Henry darted his gaze from the man’s big black bowtie to the cane in his left hand.
The old man began taking steps toward Henry with his face shining brightly. Henry was certain that he had never come in contact with the man but yet, he was feeling some sense of familiarity toward the strange man.
“And you are?” demanded Henry with his left brow raised.
Mr. Falls hurried toward the man. “He is the president and…
The old man lifted his palm in Mr. Fall’s face, shutting him up. “You can leave now.”
After Mr. Falls stepped out, the man pulled the chair next to Henry and sat.
“It feels like a dozen years. No wonder you don’t recognize me anymore. I’m your late father’s steward.”
A lump suddenly developed in Henry’s throat.
“You’ve really grown. I remember holding you in my arms. You were so little back then.”
Henry gasped. “Uncle Nate?”
The old man winked.

Chapter 245
As the plane touched down in York City, Henry took a deep breath, ready to take on whatever came next. A few hours after landing, Henry called Tammy.He had been thinking about the life they had together, and the thought of leaving her behind weighed heavily on his heart.He dialed her number, the ringing tone filling the quiet of his private office. “Hey, Tammy,” Henry said as soon as she picked up. “Henry! You finally got through. I’ve been trying to reach you for days,” Tammy replied, her voice filled with relief. “I know, I’m sorry. Things have been a bit chaotic since I arrived in York City,” Henry explained.“But I wanted to ask you something. I’d love for you to come here with me. You’ve been such an important part of my life, and I can’t imagine doing all this without you. What do you think?” There was a long pause on the other end of the line. Henry could almost feel her hesitating. “I… I don’t know, Henry,” Tammy finally said.“I’ve just started with the Dream Angel gr
Chapter 244
One evening, after a particularly grueling day, Henry sat across from Tammy in his private study.The soft hum of the city outside the windows was the only sound that accompanied their silence. “Tammy,” Henry said, breaking the silence.“I know our lives are... complicated. But I want you to know that no matter what happens, I’m here. With you. Always.” Tammy’s heart fluttered at his words, her eyes softening as she gazed at him.“I know, Henry. And I’m here too. We’ll find a way to make this work. No matter how busy life gets, we’ll make time for each other. I promise.” Henry smiled, the tension in his shoulders easing. “I’m counting on you, Tammy.”The morning sun had just begun to rise over Marian City, casting a warm glow on the vast Parker empire.For years, Henry had poured his heart and soul into building his businesses, carefully cultivating them from the ground up.His family name had become synonymous with success, wealth, and influence, stretching across countless secto
Chapter 243
He thought he had already lost his life.Henry chuckled a bit.“She never misses a target but because you are family, she was being merciful. Think about that before you dare to double cross me in the future, cousin.” Henry said in sinister.June smirked as she looked at his face.“All talk but you are not even brave? Huh? Control the business? In your dreams, Daniel.”Later that evening, as the dust settled and the formalities of the day came to an end,Henry sat alone in his study, reflecting on the day’s events.The battle for the Parker legacy had been won, but he couldn’t shake the feeling that something more had shifted, something deeper. His phone buzzed, and Tammy’s name appeared on the screen.His heart skipped a beat as he answered. “Hey, Tammy,” he said, his voice soft, the exhaustion of the day lacing his words. “I heard the news,” Tammy said with a smile in her voice.“I mean, I saw it in the news. You did it. I knew you would.” Henry smiled, his fingers drumming on h
Chapter 242
This time, he knew that Tammy wasn’t just offering her support because it was the right thing to do.She genuinely cared for him, and in that moment, Henry realized how much he had come to rely on her.She was more than a friend now.She was something… more.Something he wasn’t ready to put into words, but that he felt every time they spoke. “I really appreciate you, Tammy,” Henry said quietly, his voice thick with emotion. “You’ve become more important to me than I ever expected.” There was a pause, and then Tammy responded, her voice teasing yet soft.“You know, Henry, I’ve always been here, right? You just had to notice.” Henry chuckled, the sound surprisingly light despite the tension in the air.“I’m starting to notice.” As the day of the family meeting drew closer, Henry couldn’t shake the feeling that he needed to make a move.One that would solidify his position not only as the rightful heir to the Parker empire but also as the leader of his own destiny.He knew that Danie

A long pause followed, and Henry found himself staring out of the window, the weight of the world still heavy on his shoulders.But Tammy’s words had lifted him, even if just a little.He hadn’t realized how much he needed to hear them, how much he needed someone to remind him that it wasn’t all on him. “I just feel like I’m stuck between two worlds,” he admitted, his voice barely above a whisper.“The responsibilities of the empire, the family, and then… I don’t even know how to mourn properly. My grandfather meant so much to me.” Tammy’s voice was gentle, but there was a strength in it.“It’s okay to grieve, Henry. You don’t have to be strong all the time. It’s okay to take a moment for yourself, to feel everything that’s happening. It’s part of being human.” “I know,” Henry said, his voice thick with emotion.“But the pressure is constant. Daniel’s been… well, he’s been trying to undermine me, trying to take what’s mine. It feels like a battle on every front.” Tammy’s tone was
Chapter 240
Unlike Henry, who had dedicated his life to running the family businesses,Daniel had focused on the socialite life, parties, charity galas, and public appearances.He had the charm and charisma that many people admired, but Henry had always suspected that his cousin was more interested in the title of heir than the responsibilities that came with it. “Henry,” Daniel said, his voice smooth,“I’m glad you’re here. It’s a tough time for all of us, but we must think about the future. Your grandfather always said that the Parker legacy should be passed on to someone with the right vision.”His eyes gleamed as he spoke, his hand casually resting on the back of a chair, as if he were already preparing to sit at the head of the table. Henry didn’t respond immediately.His gaze swept over the room.His uncle, clearly shaken, was trying to hold it together.While his father, though stoic, seemed to be lost in his thoughts.The family lawyer, Mr. Grant, was seated at the end of the table, wai
