Henry Royals is a multi-billionaire with different companies and estates all over Georgia.

His appearance alone is mouth-dropping and bewitching. He is most definitely every girl's desire, meaning all the ladies in Georgia crush on him.

They all get wet and squirt on their panties at the mere sight of him. He is dangerously handsome and even the dumb rat in the streets could rate the level of his handsomeness.

As a son from a wealthy home, he could get anything and everything with just a snap of his fingers.

By the sound of his name, the first thing that comes to the mind of people on hearing his name was love; 'he has a beautiful girlfriend whom he loves so much', people will always say but it is the.

He was far from the word called love because that four-letter word doesn't exist in his world.

He is cold to everyone not only to the ladies flocking around him but also to every other person including his da, but his mom happens to be an exception. No matter how she frustrated his life, he still can't bring himself to hate her.

Henry is a hard-working twenty-one-year-old young man who spends most of his time on his laptop day and night.

Many billionaires would be busy squandering their wealth on women, clothes, shoes, and other worthless things but Henry Royals would bury his head in his laptop, finding ways to make his company one of the best in the world.

He happens to be the only son of the Royals and the heir to the Royals companies. If it were to be other heirs, they wouldn't work for their own money rather, they would be busy squandering and lavishing on their parent's money.

Henry worked hard day and night to prove to his father that he wasn't as worthless as his father thought of him.

" Sir the investors from Moreno oil company are here," Reece said to Henry.

" Take them to the board room, I will be there shortly," he said not taking his gaze off his laptop.

Reece nodded and left the office to do as he was told and a few minutes later, Henry joined them in the board room.

His cold expression coupled with his handsome face gave him a killer look.

He walked to the middle of the long table and sat at the end of it before unbuttoning his suit.

Henry flipped through all the documents the investors gave him and he signed all of them without giving it a second thought. He does anything that would make him profit, even if it means making a deal with the devil. He just wanted to make his father realize that he wasn't worthless, rather he was more useful than ten sons.

" Mr Henry, we are so excited to be a part of the Dolphin group of companies now," one of the investors said and Henry simply nodded his head.

He finds it very difficult to communicate with people freely, in other words, he is an introvert.

To him, his mom is the only person in his life that he can trust without having a second thought, so any other person apart from her, is all after his money.

He walked out of the board room, leaving Reece to attend to the investors. Henry went back to his office and continued sorting out some of the files, then his phone began to ring, he took a glance at the caller's ID and smiled when he saw who it was, his mom, Mrs. Royals.

" Mom, what is it again?" He groaned

" Don't forget your promise, today is the first day of this month and by this time next month, I want to meet a lady living in that boring house of yours okay?" Mrs. Royals said and he nodded.

" Mom, I am busy now, talk to you later" With that said, he was about to hang up but Mrs. Royals shouted making him t, and pulled the phone off his ear before his eardrums burst because of her unnecessary shouts.

" Don't you dare hang up on me Henry!" She shouted

" Mom try to calm down, you will have an attack if you keep shouting unnecessarily like this" Henry explained, trying to cajole her to let him hang up but she wouldn't listen.

" Me having an attack is none of your business, not as if you care about me," she said and Henry snorted.

" You know that's not true, Mom. You just want me to do as you say" he scoffed before adding. " I am always wondering where Father came across such a crazy psycho path like you" he muffled under his breath.

" I heard that asshole!" She yelled again.

" See you later Mom" With that said, he hung up without hearing what she had to say next.

" That dickhead of a son" Mrs. Royals muttered staring at her phone.

Henry sighed as he dropped his phone on the table.

" I need to clear my head" he muttered and punched a number on the telephone.

" Reece, get me a cup of cappuccino right now," he said and hung up.

" Now I am getting confused. Am I an errand boy or his manager?" He asked himself as he stood up from his chair to go get a cup of cappuccino for Henry.

Recce sighed in frustration, he has been running countless errands and had no time to rest his ass and Henry was making it more difficult for him. At this rate, he could collapse at any time.

" How I wish he could just smile a little he would look really cute" Reece muttered as he made his way to the cafe to get Henry the cappuccino he asked for.

After a few minutes, Reece came back with a cup of cappuccino, he handed it over to Henry and was about to walk out when Henry's voice stopped him.

" After work, you will drive me to the nearest bar," he said and Reece gasped softly.

' He wants to drink?'

After work, Henry left for a bar to clear his head. He really needs to find a contracted wife before the month ends if not, his mom won't take it easy with him, and moreover, she might bring some gold digger to his house as a wife if he fails to find one for himself.

Reece drove him to the nearest bar which was also his favourite bar and left immediately because he was so tired from the day's activities. He walked in and went straight to the counter and sat down.

" Get me a glass of whiskey" his cold and husky voice made Dera who is the bartender to flinch a little.

She has never heard such a voice in her life and it wasn't right for a girl of her age to be a bartender but what was she supposed to do? Her mother is lying still on the hospital bed fighting desperately for her life and she needed money badly to pay for her mom's surgery, that was why she ended up a bartender.

Dera gave Henry a glass of whiskey which he asked for and he immediately drank from the glass and in no time, the glass was empty.

She kept staring at the Greek god in front of her with different thoughts flooding her mind.

" How could a man be this handsome?" She wondered lost in her world of thoughts. She never knew he was talking to her not until he raised his voice a bit higher and she jotted out of her thoughts.

" Get me another glass of whiskey" he ordered and she did as she was ordered and within two seconds the glass was empty and it made her wonder what was wrong with a handsome guy like him to be drinking this much at the late hours of the day.

Henry handed her the cup asking for another glass of whiskey. Dera was hesitant at first, but later gave in to his request. Not as if she was the one paying for his drinks.

' it's none of your business, Dera, just do as you're told' she scolded herself inwardly, gave him the glass filled with whiskey and watched as he drank the whole content without remaining a single drop.

As a blabbermouth that she was, she was so tempted to ask what was wrong with him, but she managed to hold herself to avoid any form of troubles.

Henry drank almost an entire bottle of whiskey and he became really drunk which made Dera worried as she stared at the drunken angel in front of her.

The bar was about to reach its closing hour and the Greek god in front of her couldn't even remember his name when she asked him while trying to help him.

Dera tried getting one or two informations about him so she would be able to take him home since the bar would be closing anytime soon, but Henry didn't say a word even when she asked him, he kept staring at her like some sort of interesting show.

" How do I get him home now?" Dera thought to herself thinking really hard, but she ran out of ideas, because she didn't know what to think anymore. She don't know who the handsome stranger is, or where he was coming from.

Dera moved closer to him and began to search him. She shoved her hands inside his tuxedo suit and and brought out his phone, then she became relieved that at least she would call maybe his friends or his mom or anyone related to him.

She tried unlocking the phone but all her effort was fruith less because his phone has a password which she couldn't guess since she knew absolutely nothing about him.

" How on Earth am I going to get him to his house this night for Christ sake!" She muttered as she look at Henry who was sleeping peacefully on the counter.

" Most annoying part is my darned conscience, I just can't ignore him and go my way." She sighed as she began to search him again for anything that would help her take him to his house. Luckily, she found a complimentary card in his shit and she exhaled loudly.

Dera took a glance at the car and a gasp escaped her lips when she saw the name written on the card. ' HENRY ROYALS' was bodly written on the card, and she continued blinking her eyes in disbelief.

She had always wished to meet him even if it was just for once, since her best friend, Luciana always talks about him almost everyday, but now, she was privileged to see him one on one. Her happiness knew no bound.

Dera shoved the complimentary card back into his shit and moved closer to help him get on his feet. His home address was written at the back of the card so she was planning on taking him to the address on the card. At first, it was really hard because they both fell down because of how heavy Henry was, but she managed to stand up and helped him out of the bar.

She was lucky to see a taxi who helped her put Henry inside the car and drove off to the address she told him.

Within ten minutes, the car came to a halt in front of a gigantic mansion and Dera mouth opened in awe as she looked at the most beautiful mansion she has ever come across in her whole. Twenty four years of living.

" Sir, can you please assist me in taking him inside?" Dera pleased with the driver who nodded and helped her take Henry into the house.

On getting to the entrance door, they couldn't open it, so she brought out the car in his pocket and placed it on the door and it opened immediately.

Dera didn't know when a 'wow' left her mouth as she stared at the classy and luxurious sitting room.

" Thanks for your help sir I really appreciate" Dera said with a little bow and the man smiled.

" Please take him to his room, I will wait downstairs to give you a free ride home" the driver offered and Dera's eyes beamed with excitement.

The reason why she was happy was not because she would be getting a free ride but because she could save the transport fare along with her savings for her mom's surgery.

" I will leave him here" she said and placed him on the long sofa in the sitting room. She helped him take off his shoes and also loosened his tie before walking out of the house with the driver.

" Thanks once again sir" she said as they both walked out of the mansion

The driver gave her a free ride home and when she tried giving him money, he bluntly refused.

On getting into her apartment, she met Luciana watching a TV series while eating chips and drinking from a can beer.

" Hi baby girl!" Dera gushed excitedly immediately she entered into the sitting room.

" What's up? You look super excited" Luciana said and Dera nodded.

" Yeah, and you won't believe who I met today?" She said taking off her sneakers before wearing her flip flops and then she jumped on the sofa on which Luciana was sitting on.

" So who did you see?" she asked focusing her attention on Dera.

" I met your crush" Dera smiled

" Which of my crushed did you meet?" She asked and Dera frowned and bite her lips.

" Oh! I almost forgot that you crush on every cute guy you see" she muttered and Luciana pushed Dera's forehead playfully.

" Hey! That's not true, I only cursh on extremely cute guys, so which of them did you meet?" Luciana asked really eagered to know who Dera met that made her this excited.

Because Luciana crushes on idols like BTS, Sraykids, wealthy guys like Henry Royals and actors like Lee Min Ho.

" Henry Royals!" Dera shouted throwing her hands up in the air like a baby.

" You must be joking right? How can you see Henry Royals? Wait! Did you drink at the bar? Or are you running a high temperature to be spitting out gibberish from your mouth" she touched Dera's forehead and Dera yanked Luciana's hand from forehead.

" I am damn serious. I saw him today, he came to the bar where I work and got really drunk, so I managed to take him home that was why I came home late" Dera said and Luciana mouth hanged wide open.

" Tell me it's a lie" Luciana said with a smile on her lips.

" No I am telling the truth" Dera rolled her eyes.

" Congratulations baby girl! You're really lucky to touch him and even go to his house. Do you know how ladies die to touch him and myself isn't exempted " Luciana giggled and Dera rolled her eyes.

" What is the big deal of touching a billionaire? He is also a human like us too" she muttered and stood up heading to her room.

" Hey Lucania! What did you prepare for dinner?" Dera shouted from upstairs.

" Spaghetti and meatballs" Luciana replied and focused her gaze back on the TV series she was watching before Dera came.

The sun's rays pierced through the window, causing Henry to instinctively open and then shut his eyes in response to the harsh brightness. As he blinked back the disorienting, he sat upright and was immediately hit by a sharp headache, prompting a low groan to escape his lips.

Looking around, he realized he was in his bedroom, he was surprised as to how he made it home from the bar where he remembered falling asleep the previous night.

" How on Earth did I get home? I distinctly remember dozing off at the bar. Did my mother bring me home?" He held his head, trying to piece together the missing parts of his memory.

With a glimmer of hope, he began to search for his phone and dialled his mother's number and anxiously wait for her to pick up.

" Mum, did you bring me home last night?" he asked, desperately hoping for a different answer.

" No, I didn't. Wait! Did you go to a bar again?" his mother's voice tinged with concern.

" Not now, Mom," he groaned, quickly ending the call. Frustration welled up within him as he wondered who could have possibly brought him home. The bartender? No, she doesn't even know him or where he lived.

He promised to find the answer. " I really need to find out who brought me home."

With a sigh, he made his way downstairs to soothe his hangover with a comforting bowl of hangover soup. Afterward, he returned to his room, taking a refreshing shower and dressing for the day ahead.

Heading to work, he brushed off all the staff members, and headed to his office.

Whispers floated through the office, as one of the employee, Dianne, began to murmur to another colleague.

"I wonder why he's so cold."

" He's like a cold-blooded monster. I bet he meets the devil every night," one of the staffs responded with a hushed whispers, just as Reece approached. The sudden presence of Reece caused them to fall silent, and they immediately faced their work, pretending to be engrossed in it.

Reece, who happens to overhead their conversation wondered if they were truly tired of working under Henry's strict demeanor. Shaking off the thought, he made his way to Henry's office.

" Reece, go to the bar I usually drink at and find out who brought me home yesterday. Check the CCTV footage if possible," Henry said, his gaze fixed on his laptop. Reece raised his brows in confusion.

" You fell asleep in the bar last night?" Inquired Reece and Henry paused his activities on his laptop and turned his full attention to Reece, locking him in a cold stare.

"Are you truly tired of working as a manager at Dolphins Group of Companies?" he smirked, his words filled with danger and Reece immediately shook his head in denial.

" Then will you do as I requested, or should I find someone else to carry out the task?" Henry's piercing blue eyes bored into Reece's.

" Alright, sir. I will get going," Reece said, avoiding eye contact with Henry and without waiting for a reply, he rushed out of the office.

Panting heavily, he disregarded the curious gazes from the other staff members, their expressions seeming to suggest that he had encountered the devil himself. But Reece had little concern for their reactions. Right now, his priority was getting to the bar as quickly as possible, for he had no intention of getting on the bad side of the devil incarnate.

He drove recklessly, as if pursued by a demon, until he arrived at the bar. Disembarking from his car, he breathed heavily, his rapid breaths betraying his sense of urgency as he made his way to the counter.

"Good morning, sir. What drink would you like?" Dera's sweet voice greeted him.

"Good morning, dear. Actually, I'm not here to drink. It's too early," Reece muttered, his brows furrowing with concern.

Catching the crease in his brow, Dera inquired, "So, what are you here for?"

"Did you, by any chance, see a man who got extremely drunk yesterday?" Reece asked, an air of tension in his voice.

Dera chuckled. "Sir, we both know that this is a bar, and many people get drunk every day. So, which particular person are you referring to?"

"Oh, don't worry. I have a picture of him," Reece replied, pulling out his phone and showing her a photo of Henry. Dera gasped, instinctively covering her mouth.

"Do you know him?" Reece asked, his voice filled with curiosity.

"Yes! Yes, he was the man who was extremely drunk yesterday. I took him home with the help of a taxi driver," Dera revealed, leaving Reece exhaling with relief, causing Dera to be confused.

"Are you okay, sir?" She asked, concern evident in her voice.

Reece nodded, grasping some dollars from his wallet and attempting to hand them to her as a token of appreciation.

"Thanks, sir, but I don't need it," Dera declined politely.

"You really helped me, so I need to show my gratitude," Reece insisted, but she maintained her smile, refusing to accept the money.

"I didn't do anything for you, sir," she said sincerely, her smile reflecting genuine warmth. Reece returned the smile, acknowledging her kind gesture, before exiting the bar.

Upon reaching his car, Reece rested his head against the driver's seat, his frustration evident in his clenched teeth.

"I am a manager, but that cold-blooded boss of mine has turned me into a detective. Gosh! I feel like strangling him," Reece muttered, his voice filled with discontent.

Reece arrived back at the office, having gathered every single detail about Dera Harold. Placing a soft but firm knock on Hillary's office door, he braced himself for the interaction to come.

"Come in if you wish," Henry's husky and cold voice echoed from within the room.

"He is still as arrogant as ever," Reece muttered under his breath, mimicking Hillary's voice, before mustering the courage to open the door and walk inside.

Once inside, Reece observed that Henry's eyes remained glued to the laptop, the object of his unwavering attention.

"What on Earth is in that laptop that always captivates his gaze?" Reece pondered briefly, his curiosity piqued.

Interrupting his own train of thought, Reece refocused on the conversation at hand. "I'm here," he responded, catching Hillary's attention momentarily.

Offering an update, Reece continued, "Her name is Dera Harold, a 22-year-old young lady. Her parents reside in Italy, while she came to Georgia to raise money for her mother's surgery." As Reece delivered the information, he noticed Henry was lost in deep contemplation, his thoughts seemingly distant.

"Are you hearing me?" Reece's voice jolted Henry out of his trance like state.

"Yes, I'm listening," Henry replied, his response causing Reece to briefly question the depth of his boss's absorption in his laptop.

With the conversation now resumed, Reece concluded, "She lives with her best friend, Luciana Donald."
