Lewis' father had spoken in a serious tone.He wanted to get to know the big shot in Mr. Ford's circle in the hopes that he could help save the Brandon Group. However, meeting him was currently impossible.The chamber would not help either.Lewis ended the call, a glint of indifference in his eyes.He paused for a moment and realized that the Millers were the only ones who still trusted him, making them easier to deceive.He had not won Lydia over yet, though. He was frustrated that he could not even defeat someone like Henry.Sarah felt no guilt toward Henry while in the car, and she felt Henry embarrassed her. "Why didn't Mr. Ford let you speak just now, Henry?" she asked."Maybe he was busy," Henry said after a hesitation."He's definitely busy, but it wouldn't cost him anything to spare a few minutes. I think he doesn't want to talk to you, so he doesn't want to waste time on you.""Maybe," Henry said indifferently."Stop acting like you don't care. Do you know what that
"A misunderstanding? We did join the chamber, right?" William and Jennifer were puzzled."Of course we did. I meant that Lewis had nothing to do with us joining the chamber. It was all thanks to Henry," Lydia said."Nothing to do with Lewis, and thanks to Henry?""Are you out of your mind, Lydia?"Both of them looked incredulous; they could not believe it at all.Even John was stunned. It seemed impossible, but Lydia should not be making things up because she did not like Henry."It's true."Lydia quickly explained what happened that night."So that's how it is!"John said happily, "I didn't expect your medical skills to be so amazing, Henry. It seems you've truly inherited the old divine doctor's skills.""I'm flattered, Grandpa Miller," Henry said modestly."Not at all. Did you plan to use this favor to help the day before yesterday when we discussed this?""Kind of.""I see. It was my fault for not believing in you, and I even scolded you."John's words made Lydia reca
"Understood," Henry replied."Good. Let's go get the divorce papers after I convince Grandpa," Lydia said."Sure." Henry nodded.Even though he was unwilling to do so, he would never force someone to do something against their will.Lydia breathed a sigh of relief, hoping that Henry truly understood.They had different upbringings, and forcing themselves to be together would not lead to happiness.Henry went back to his room. His phone rang as he was about to lie down, and it was a call from Chansey."Ms. Ford!""Didn't we agree for you to call me Chansey?" Chansey pouted."Fine. Chansey!""Why do you sound so unwilling? Am I that annoying?""How is that possible? A man who says you're annoying is simply not a man.""That's more like it. Are you free tomorrow night?""What's up?""Accompany me to an event.""We're not that close. Why would you invite me to an event?""But you're my beloved Henry. Aren't we close enough?""I'm busy!"Henry hung up the phone.Chansey s
'He still denied the other day that he said nothing to her; what a jerk.'It's only the second day they met, and he's already eagerly making plans with her.'Lydia became irritated suddenly; she had planned to bring him to an event that night.Henry quickly got into the car.Chansey appeared pleased as she started the car and drove away.Lydia was outraged as she watched them leave. She had no idea how she felt, even though she had insisted on getting rid of Henry.She could not take it when she saw Henry hanging out with another beautiful woman.It must be because he was married to her, and going out with other women was considered cheating.That must be it!They were not on the same level anyway, and it was bound to happen eventually.The immediate task was to secure the massive loan from the bank.At that moment, no one noticed that someone was secretly watching Henry leave.The man took out his phone and made a call. "Henry has left, Lewis.""Good!"Lewis hung up the
Jeffery knew his daughter would be hanging out with Henry, so he intentionally withdrew the covert bodyguards. He did not want Henry to feel that he was being followed."Don't be afraid, I'm here." Henry comforted her softly.Chansey felt relieved simply hearing that from Henry, for unknown reasons. She nodded and said, "What should we do now?""What else can we do?"We have to get revenge for sure! An eye for an eye!"Chansey paused momentarily before saying urgently, "But there are many of them, and they are armed with knives. Let's call my father and ask him to save us.""No need," Henry said calmly.At that point, the leading masked man approached the car door and prepared to smash the window with a stick.However, Henry pushed the door open unexpectedly, and the force struck the leader.'Hmm!'The man groaned and took a few steps backward.He felt a sharp pain in his abdomen as he was about to recover, and then he fell back.Henry immediately got out of the car and kic
Henry smiled. Then, he shook his head and said, "You are truly foolish."Even though Alex disagreed, he said, "Yes, I am foolish. Please spare me just this once. I promise I won't do it again, Mr. Truman.""Look at you. You don't even know where you went wrong."Anyway, I'll help you get it through your thick skull. The Brandon Group will go bankrupt soon. No matter how much money you invest, it will be a complete loss.""This—"Alex could not believe it, especially since he had bought 1.5 million dollars in shares earlier that morning. Otherwise, he would not have responded so quickly when Lewis called.He even went all-out. That 1.5 million dollars was a large sum for him, but the anticipated returns had him excited and nervous."Believe me or don't. I don't need to lie to you."As for today's issue, you decide how to resolve it. Apologizing will not solve everything," Henry said indifferently."Well, how about I compensate you with 150,000 dollars for emotional distress?" A
"Of course!" Chansey said immediately. She had put a lot of effort into planning a hangout session with Henry."Okay, let's take a cab," Henry said.He hailed a cab, and the two arrived at their destination quickly.It looked like a high-end club. Soon, Chansey led the way to a banquet hall.The interior was luxurious, with sparkling lights. Numerous handsome men, beautiful ladies, and successful individuals mingled with one another while the air was filled with elegant and melodious music.The entire atmosphere was premium and comfortable, clearly a gathering place for the upper class.Chasey decided to use the bathroom; she was probably still in shock due to her earlier experience. That left Henry alone.After a while, a security guard approached him and said, "Sorry, but this is a private event for invited guests only."Henry was surprised and explained, "A friend brought me. I'm not trespassing.""That's impossible. Everyone at this event is either a young master or a youn
The crowd was shocked by Henry's statement.They looked at Henry as if he were a fool. While many people did not know who Chansey was, they were well aware of Derek.He was the eldest son of Richard Miles, known as Hodbridge's second in command.His mother also came from the prestigious Scotts family in the capital. Most importantly, he was the only grandson left after his mother's only brother died in an accident.'Why would the ignorant dude offend Derek, who has such a strong background? He is getting himself into trouble.'Most of the people in the crowd thought the young man was already dead.Even Chansey was shocked. However, she made up her mind not to stand idly by. She would ensure her father saved Henry even if it meant resorting to desperate measures."Alright, dude. You're tough. I hope you can keep it that way," Derek said coldly as he walked away.Derek thought Henry was as good as dead.As they watched Derek leave in anger, Chansey whispered, "Derek's parents ar
