"What do you mean by that, Henry?" Jennifer looked astounded."Okay, what's going on? Did Ms. Ford find out about your engagement to Lydia?" William asked anxiously, concerned that it would cause trouble."It has nothing to do with that," Henry replied, shaking his head."It's just that Ms. Ford got engaged to someone else this morning.""What?!" Henry's words astounded everyone, particularly Lydia. Even though she did not know much about Henry and Chansey, she could tell by Chansey's eyes that she had a deep affection for Henry.Lydia could not understand why Chansey would get engaged to someone else. Especially given the rumors that Mr. Ford adored his daughter and wielded enormous power, he should have given her a free choice in marriage.Jennifer became even more concerned and asked, "What's going on? Why did she get engaged to someone else? Have you offended her?""Yeah, what have you done, Henry?" William asked angrily. He was certain that Henry had done something to enrag

"In that case, the Fords will undoubtedly choose the Chapman Legacy. So it's understandable that Henry is being kicked out," William said."I see. If that's the case, Henry will become worthless again. After all, Mr. Ford's unlikely to care for him any longer," Jennifer said."More or less," William replied in agreement."It appears that Henry's destined to be a loser. Such opportunities have slipped past him," William said, shaking his head."He's not just a loser but a disaster," Jennifer said, her face darkening with disdain."Henry, if Mr. Ford doesn't value you, Lydia is unlikely to either. You should know what to do, right?"Henry stood there, unable to believe what he had heard. They had turned their backs on him immediately after receiving the news without even allowing him to explain thoroughly.Even Lydia was enraged and retorted, "Dad, Mom, seriously? Are you both really doing this to Henry?""What do you mean? We're just weighing the pros and cons. He's destined to

"Another six months? Are you playing with us?"That's impossible. We'll never agree!" Jennifer replied angrily."If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do. Anyway, I'm not leaving unless Lydia drives me away," Henry said calmly.William and Jennifer were furious.Lydia's phone rang. She ignored it until Hilda called again, at which point she had no choice but to respond.Hilda's urgent voice came through. "The police are here to arrest Henry, Ms. Miller.""What!" Lydia was stunned for a moment before looking at Henry."I'm having people search him everywhere," Hilda said urgently before hanging up."What's going on?" William and Jennifer heard the call.Lydia did not bother with them; instead, she asked Henry, "What did you do? Why would the police come to the company and arrest you?""Arrest me? I haven't done anything!" Henry was also perplexed, as he had not done anything recently.Could it be the result of his earlier confrontation with Simon's men? However, they

It was extremely frightening, especially given the numerous cases of entire families being destroyed due to a son-in-law's anger.Lydia's expression changed abruptly, and she asked anxiously, "Officer, there must be a mistake. Henry wouldn't do such a thing.""We'll find out after the investigation," the female officer said coldly."Cuff him!" The police officer ordered her subordinates.Henry did not resist but frowned."Officer, I don't know where you got your information from, but you've definitely got the wrong person," said Henry.The female officer's expression was indifferent. She was aware that every suspect would deny their guilt when arrested. She replied, "I'll find out later. But you must come with me now.""I need to understand why I've become a suspect. Who did I kill?""You'll find out at the police station. Take him away!" The policewoman directed her team without further ado.It was everyone's responsibility in Cathysia to cooperate with the police during inve

While in the police car, Lora became extremely nervous. She whispered to Henry, "Did I say the wrong thing and make things worse?""What do you think?" Henry rolled his eyes."I'm sorry. I only wanted to help you.""It's okay. It's not a big deal.""Really? Do you know any high-level authorities?"Henry remained speechless."What you said is not a big deal for a murder suspect," the policewoman sitting next to them said coldly."What?" Lora was startled."Don't believe her nonsense; I didn't do anything," Henry said."I hope so, but now that it's in my hands, you shouldn't count on luck. If you commit a crime, knowing any authorities will not help you," the policewoman said sternly."I didn't commit any crime," Henry said calmly."Then how did Josh Todd die?""Josh Todd? I don't even know him!"The officer shook her head and declined to ask any further questions.People surrounded the police car as they arrived at the police station. Those people shouted, "Team Drayson!"

"He's dead? He deserved it," Henry said."What did you say?" Jess was infuriated."Nothing. What I'm trying to say is that there's no evidence that I killed him. Just because I had a disagreement with him doesn't make me a murderer, right?" Henry replied."Do you think you are flawless? There was evidence left behind before Josh died." Jess snorted."But I'm giving you a chance to confess," she said."No need; just show me the evidence," Henry said."Fine, take a look at this," Jess said, showing a video clip that Josh had recorded last night.He claimed he was intimidated by the person who beat him up and threatened to kill him, and he was extremely nervous. Then, a photo with the word H written next to him before he died.Henry shook his head, speechless, and asked, "Do you really believe these? Don't you think it's all fabricated?""Are you saying that someone tried to frame you and even killed someone because of that?" Jess said."It's possible." Henry considered several

Jess did not want to let Henry go, but she could not ignore Sergeant James' orders.Even though her father was Sergeant James' superior, she avoided using her family connections. Her colleagues were unaware that she was the daughter of Paul Drayson, the provincial department's Secretary of Discipline.After hanging up the phone, Jess told someone to unlock Henry's handcuffs and said coldly, "Henry, you're quite capable. Are you pleased now?""Not really; I didn't do anything. I hope your team conducts a thorough investigation to find the real culprit.""Don't worry, I will. But I'm worried it will implicate you again. By then, no one will be able to help you.""That won't happen!" Henry smiled slightly.He stood up and said, "I'm leaving now, Ms. Drayson. See you when I see you.""We'll definitely meet again," Jess said coldly.She reasoned that Henry should avoid crossing her path, or he would regret it.She would not back down if there were evidence, even with Sergeant James

"Suit yourself." Lydia hung up the phone cheerfully.She finally understood the meaning of love, and she realized how much she liked Henry.Even though he was worthless and possessed no power or influence, marrying him would undoubtedly result in gossip. However, she felt like none of that mattered as long as she liked him.However, dealing with William, Jennifer, and John—who was currently away from home—would be difficult.'Oh! Why is everything so difficult?' Lydia sighed inwardly.She made a decision right then. She would nurture Henry to become a pillar of the company. By then, she would face less resistance.Lydia suddenly remembered a movie called The Mighty Husband. She felt she was just like that character in the film, who hoped for her husband to rise to greatness.She hoped Henry would assert himself more and stop being so carefree and arrogant.Lora returned to the company and sat at her desk with a worried expression on her face. Many people approached Lora to inqu

Lora was stunned when she heard Henry's voice; her entire body trembled slightly.'What's going on? Is that Mr. Truman? Am I having hallucinations because I'm worried?' Lora thought.She turned around and saw Henry. Then, she smiled. She wondered if Henry was okay since he had returned so quickly.Henry walked forward, looked at Carol, and calmly asked, "Why the silence?"Carol's face paled. She eventually came to her senses and quickly explained, "It's a misunderstanding, Mr. Truman. I was just talking nonsense."Henry smiled with a hint of coldness in his eyes and asked, "Do you think I'll believe that?""I— I—""Look at you, so cowardly!" Henry shook his head with disdain in his eyes before turning and walking away."Remember, don't act like it if you're not tough. Otherwise, you'll be miserable one day."Carol's face darkened, and she grew resentful as she watched Henry leave.She immediately went to Marco to air her grievances.After listening, Marco smiled and said, "D

"Also, focus more on the company's business and don't delegate everything to Herman. You've made contributions and achievements now. I'll promote you to a higher position if the opportunity arises." Lydia made it clear to Henry that she was also motivating him to work toward his future goals.When Henry heard that, he quickly shook his head and said, "There's no need for all that trouble. This is enough.""What do you mean? Don't you have any ambition?" Lydia retorted."It's really not necessary.""Is it not necessary? Do you think you're impressive simply because you've recovered so much outstanding debt? Do you think you can marry anyone like this?" Lydia almost questioned Henry's worthiness to marry her.When Henry finally understood, he asked, "Are you saying that you'd only consider becoming my wife if I worked hard to get promoted?""Hmph, I didn't say that.""Forget it then. I don't want to waste my efforts.""You—"Lydia was furious, but to help Henry, she said, "You'r
