Now, he needed to do something: ask for forgiveness from his Grandpa.
"Grandpa..." Henry finally spoke, although his voice was barely audible, and his throat felt sore. He swallowed a few times to wet his throat before continuing his words.
"I’m sorry, really sorry, Grandpa. I disappointed you, my father, and my mother... I know I was wrong, and I can’t help the company when it suffers like it is now. What I did in the past, troubling you and my parents, was merely because I wanted to help. But, I’m too stupid, terribly stupid—"
Isaac was surprised to hear Henry express his guilt. However, he still doubted his sincerity.
Isaac let out a deep sigh before deciding to explain to his grandson what had really happened in the company. He hoped that if his grandson knew the truth, it would shake him up and bring him back to reality, just like it did with his father, Lucas.
"Henry, I’m sure you’ve heard that your uncle is no longer the CEO of the Donovan Group," Isaac said.
Henry nodded faintly, "Y-Yes..."
"Not just your first uncle, but they also let go of your father and Uncle Thomas," Isaac added.
Isaac’s last words were enough to shock Henry, "WH-WHAT? They also fired my father and third uncle?"
Isaac Donovan nodded; he continued, "Yes, my grandson, yes...Not only have they fired them all, but your uncles no longer have shares in the company. Simply put, the Donovan Group owner has now changed. The majority shareholder is no longer Donovan but someone else."
Henry felt like lightning struck his head. Even his uncles and his father lost their shares? It’s hard for him to believe that. How could it be?
"Grandpa, are you trying to frighten me?"
Isaac shook his head while smiling. "I don’t have time and energy to do that to you, Henry. What I’m telling you now is the reality of Donovan Group. So, stop your plan to depend on the company."
Slowly, all the strange things that Henry had seen in his father in the past few days reappeared in his mind like video clips:
His father suddenly stopped his people from looking for his missing mother.
His father fired his personal assistant, who lived in their house, just to make his mother jealous.
His father no longer wanted to meet him.
His father cried silently in his bedroom. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
His father suddenly left the house without bringing his cell phone, and even his driver and personal assistant did not know where he was.
After hearing his grandfather’s words, Henry’s mind became clearer.
Henry realized his father had nothing to be proud of, such as position, power, or even his woman. Everything had vanished, and he decided to leave everything behind.
’Father, you are so heartless! How could you leave me because of all of that? Why, father? Why did you do that?’ Henry asked himself, trying to find the answer to all the questions now dancing in his mind.
But something else hurt him even more. He was seeing his mother staring at him with red eyes. The way she looked at him while she was crying hurt him even more.
"Mom, I finally found you. Why did you leave us? Why—" asked Henry while holding back his sobs. But not long after, the pain he felt in his arms and lower ribs felt excruciating again. Torturing him!
"Henry, I’m sorry..." Natalie said while walking toward her son.
"No! Please don’t say that. I should be the one apologizing to you, Mom. I..." His voice slowly faded away, and his vision slowly darkened. He no longer saw anything but darkness.
"HENRY! What happened to you?" Natalie screamed, running towards her son, who was lying motionless on the sofa.
Bella and Isaac appeared shocked. They quickly got up and approached Henry.
’Is he dead?’ Bella wondered as she checked for a pulse behind Henry’s ear. Her face tensed as she looked at her worried mother.
"What’s wrong with your brother? Why isn’t he moving?" Natalie asked, waiting for Bella to respond.
Bella didn’t answer her but instead looked at Bryan. "Where’s the ambulance?"
"They should be here in three minutes. No, I think they’re at the gate now," Bryan replied, glancing outside.
Faintly, the ambulance sirens could be heard in the distance.
