Henley paled in comparison to David in every aspect since they were young. He had been living under David's shadow since the day he was born.
The resentment he bore toward David wasn't something new.
Often, he wondered if the title of "business genius" would be his own once David was exterminated.
If it weren't for Douglas, David wouldn't have been able to cthis far.
Henley was on cloud nine when he found out that David wasn't Douglas' biological son.
He thought, "Even if I can't perform better than him, my status is higher than him!" However, his expression fell when Linus showed up.
Because even the status Henley was proud of was nothing in Linus' presence! At that moment, everyone's attention was on Linus and David. No one cared about Graham and Henley.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtInstead of revealing Olivia's matter, Linus took another approach. "Nice to meet you, David. I'm Linus Heath, your half-brother. Dad can't cto see you due to his special identity, so I've cin his stead." "D-Dad..." David's eyes reddened.
In fact, David knew everything all along.
Ever since he could remember, he had been living with his mother. He asked her who his father was before.
Every time, she would caress his head and give him a warm smile.
When they met Douglas, she told David that that man was his father.
Douglas treated David well like his biological son. However, David clearly knew that Douglas wasn't his biological father.
Considering how his mother wasn't willing to tell him the truth, David figured that she had her reasons.
Hence, he no longer asked the question when he grew up.
Furthermore, Douglas treated him well. David thought that such a life wasn't bad.
He had never dreamed about meeting his true family at all. He didn't only have the Fordham family; he also had another family! Noticing his vehement expression, Linus held his hand. "Dad "Pad was happy when he heard about you. No matter where you are, there's always a place for you at home." Those words were for David, but they also served as a warning to the Fordhams.
No matter who David was, he would forever be one of the Heaths. The Heath family would protect him.
The Fordhams weren't powerful enough to go against the Heaths.
Who were the Heaths? They were the head of a country.
Money and connections could be wielded as weapons in the most intense, but were they enough to confront the head of a country? Would one's intelligence be enough for such a battle? No, because one would need munitions.
It would take a single order from the Heath family to oust all of the Fordhams.
Linus, representing the Heath family, was here to support David.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHaving been in the industry for so many years, David knew the meaning behind Linus' words.
David was indebted to Douglas and ook Douglas as his biological t ather. Every decision he made was ctually for the Fordham family.
Even though he was aware of Henley's hatred, it didn't bother him because he was the elder brother.
Indecisive; stubborn; petty; and stubborn-that was Henley.
There was something he had wished to achieve since he was young-to surpass David.
In order to prove his capability, he also built a company himself a long tago.
However, given his character, it was asy for him to offend others. His eapability made it worse, so David lways had to clean up his mess. David helped Henley out in secret because he knew how egoistic Henley was.
In the end, Henley thought that his luck played a role whenever a crisis was averted, believing that God was on his side.
He was confident that he could one day surpass David and prove to everyone how capable he was.
