**The Billionaire’s Last Obsession series 670: Henry’s Antics**
Henry stood there, his eyes fixed on Karina as she walked away, her silhouette gradually fading into the distance. Frustration bubbled within him, and in a fit of anger, he kicked a nearby pillar with all his might. “Bastard!” he muttered under his breath, the word tasting bitter on his tongue as he stormed off, each step echoing his discontent.
On the top floor of the opulent Sinclair estate, Lilian observed Henry’s retreating figure with a cold, calculating sneer that danced across her lips. She relished in the turmoil she sensed swirling around him, her mind already plotting her next move.
Meanwhile, at the Sinclair family residence, Chloe felt a mix of excitement and anxiety as she prepared for her father’s return. She was acutely aware that today marked a pivotal board meeting, one that could restore Henry’s grip on the company. With that thought in mind, she hurried home, eager to lend a hand to the maid in whipping up a feast that would celebrate Henry’s triumphant return.
Beth, the maid, mirrored her enthusiasm, her eyes sparkling with joy. It had been far too long since the household had experienced such a moment of happiness. The scent of simmering spices filled the air, promising a delightful evening.
In stark contrast, Morgan sat quietly in a corner, his demeanor serene yet contemplative. He watched the bustling activity around him, his mind racing with thoughts that he kept to himself.
As dusk settled outside, the sound of tires crunching on gravel signaled Henry’s arrival.
“Welcome back,” the maid announced, her voice filled with warmth.
They heard only Henry’s flat, disinterested response: “Mhm.”
Chloe, unable to contain her excitement, dashed toward him. “Dad! How did it go? Did you manage to reclaim the controlling stake? Are you the General Manager again—or wait, you must be the Chairman now!” Her words tumbled out in a rush, each one laced with hope.
Henry, with a casual air, changed his shoes and handed his briefcase to the maid, nodding with a cool detachment. “Yes, I got the controlling stake back.”
A triumphant cheer erupted from Chloe. “I knew it! Dad is now the largest shareholder of Sinclair Group! Who would dare to stand in your way?” Her enthusiasm was infectious, lighting up the room.
