"Yes, I saw that," Henry replied with a smile.Sheena was surprised that Henry noticed her support."Don't mention it. I didn't think it made much of a difference.""Every action has its impact, even if you can't see it immediately," Henry said."Thank you, Henry, for the encouragement. Actually, I'm calling to invite you to my concert tonight in Eastonia.""You're having a concert tonight? What time?" Henry asked, considering his schedule. He might not have time if he had to prepare for the upcoming Holy Clan Conference."It's at 7:30 PM, at the stadium. Do you think you can make it?" Sheena asked hopefully. She really wanted Henry to attend, and she would have invited him sooner if it had not been for the Skyler incident."Yes, I can make it," Henry agreed without hesitation.Sheena had stood up for him and endured a lot of backlash; the least he could do was attend her concert.Besides, he genuinely admired her beauty, sweet voice, and graceful figure. If it were not for hi
Emily poured her feelings without even realizing what she said.Henry listened silently beside her, his mind overwhelmed with guilt and sadness. He had never imagined that Emily held such deep feelings for him.He felt the same guilt toward Chansey, but he had helped her in many ways, which somewhat alleviated his guilt.Yet, he realized he had done little for Emily beyond helping her advance to a Grandmaster. In contrast, she had gone to great lengths to find and assist him and Anna.Henry had no idea how to comfort Emily; taking her as his woman would not be bad for him. Every man would desire her. However, Lydia would undoubtedly be heartbroken if she found out.So, Henry could not respond to Emily's feelings.Being an adult meant having the ability to resist temptation and take responsibility for one's actions.Emily's voice trailed off, and she finally looked over, thinking Henry might have left. To her surprise, he was still there, listening intently."I'm sorry, Young Ma
"We'll see," Emily said as she stood up, not bothering to put her clothes back on.Instead, she stood in front of Henry with a seductive smile and said, "What do you think of my body?"Henry was speechless and quickly closed his eyes. Yet, her perfect body remained etched in his mind.Emily felt even more delighted as Henry closed his eyes. She giggled. "You're bleeding from your nose!""What?" Henry opened his eyes instinctively. However, he found Emily crouching down, bringing her body closer, making everything even clearer."You—" Henry realized she had tricked him."You're cute!" Emily giggled again before walking away.Henry shook his head helplessly. He would need to limit his interactions with her in the future lest he succumb to temptation, which would betray Lydia.Emily was in Eastonia to find a house for Lydia. Once everything was arranged, she quickly left to attend to other matters assigned by Anna.Before leaving, she mentioned that she had chosen a guest room an
Henry was furious. He had no idea why Jennifer had always wanted to make life difficult for Lydia; she was Lydia's mother. He struggled to decide whether to tell Lydia about this.Would she even believe it, given that it was her mom?Henry then remembered something the platform person in charge mentioned; the matter had already been reported, and the authorities in Aurelia were investigating those incidents. They planned to clear the victims' names and expose the people behind them, issuing stern warnings or severe punishments if necessary.The person in charge said it would take a couple of days to verify everything and publicly announce the results. So Henry decided to wait and see.He wondered how Jennifer would handle it when the truth was revealed.Jennifer had no idea about any of that. She thought she had done everything perfectly, leaving no trace and that no one would suspect her. With all the enemies Lydia and Henry had made, it seemed unlikely anyone would point the fin
After some hesitation, Lydia decided to call Jennifer."Hello?""Mom, it's me.""Oh, Lydia." Jennifer felt a moment of panic but quickly calmed herself."How are you? Everything okay?""I'm fine, just a small issue.""Regarding Skyler? I noticed it. He's really shameless, and those clueless people online. But I knew you'd be fine with Henry's help, so I didn't want to bother you with a call."Jennifer hurried to explain. It would seem uncaring not to have called as a mom."Yes, Henry has been a great help." Lydia hesitated.However, she asked, "Mom, have you seen the negative stuff about me online recently?""What? No, I don't spend much time online or know much about that sort of thing. I only found out about Skyler's incident because someone told me.""Oh, okay. It's nothing then. The information is too detailed for most people, so I'm asking you.""I don't know anything about it, but I'll check and let you know if I find anything.""Thanks, Mom.""You can always come t
Time would always tell the truth, so Lydia decided not to say anything.Meanwhile, three women sat together in a hotel near the sports arena.One was the famous singer Sheena, whose popularity had soared despite initial setbacks. Another was Sheena's former assistant, Penny, who was then made manager.The third was a gorgeous woman in her 30s named Carrie Mose. She had a mature charm and an excellent physique. She resigned from her previous job due to harassment from senior executives. Sheena had not wanted to join a company and needed someone to manage her personal studio, and Carrie was perfect for the role.However, their moral stance brought them many problems. Sheena's career, despite her influence, faced obstacles, and she had to rely on quality work and loyal fans rather than opportunities."Sheena, since Mr. Truman is also in Eastonia, why don't we invite him over? He might be able to help," Penny asked. She had proposed that several times, but Sheena always refused. She
Sheena had discovered that the Newmans were one of the top families in Aurelia City, with immense power beyond their imagination.Henry was strong, but taking on a family like the Newmans was impossible."Is Henry coming?" Penny said excitedly."Yes, I invited him to my concert tonight, and he agreed," Sheena replied, her face lighting up at the mention of Henry."Great!" Penny nodded, though she was secretly planning how to inform Henry about Sheena's troubles with Mateo. She had a feeling Henry was extraordinary and might be able to help.Carrie remained quiet, eager to meet that legendary figure and see if he was as impressive as rumored. From what she had heard about the Skyler incident, Henry had some remarkable abilities.It was 7:00 P.M. Sheena kept checking her phone, waiting for Henry's call.Her phone finally rang, and she answered immediately.Henry invited Lydia to the concert, but she declined, saying she was busy with work.So, Henry headed to the concert alone a
There was one prime seat in the front row within the tickets that Carrie took with her. She had initially planned to give Henry the best spot per Sheena's instruction.However, because she was annoyed by Henry's initial glance, she handed him a random ticket, a seat in the third row. It was still considered a good spot.That seat was still very comfortable, offering a great view without the need to crane one's neck, though it did make direct interaction with the star more challenging.Henry noticed Carrie's annoyance but did not let it bother him. He found his seat and settled in, observing the nearly filled 50,000-seat stadium. Sheena's popularity was undeniable despite the limited resources holding her back.As Henry looked at his phone, a familiar voice interrupted him. "Young Master, didn't you say you weren't attending the concert this evening?"It was Emily, always captivating with her elegant yet alluring presence.Henry chuckled, feeling slightly awkward. He had told her
