Henley grew up thinking that way. It even rubbed off on Graham, and he thought the same as well.Graham would get jealous of his brothers who performed better than him.That was why he chose to enter showbiz. Becoming a celebrity meant standing in the spotlight.Yet, little did he know that David had been helping out behind the scenes so that he could hit it big.Back then, Graham intentionally hid his identity as he wished to gain success himself.However, it wasn't that easy to stand out in showbiz without connections. It was David who secretly hired an excellent manager to approach Graham. David also protected Graham from those illicit affairs in showbiz.Even though Graham's vile temper had offended many people, David was there to clean the mess.Not only did David ask someone to concoct a plan for Graham to be a huge star, but he also personally chose decent scripts for Graham.As time went by, Graham became famous with zero scandals. His popularity never failed to top t

Henley gulped upon hearing that. He glanced at his scarce supporters.He had planned this for so many years for this day to come. How could he give up right now?"I won't," said Henley."Alright, let's begin."The shareholders' meeting started. Jacqueline wasn't in the state of mind to think about Olivia's matter.Now that she had bet her everything in the game, she couldn't lose!There had been a huge change in the distribution of shares lately, so everyone wasn't confident about their win.All Henley's family took over was the 20% share from Douglas. The assets weren't properly distributed due to his sudden passing.Henley had been raking his brain to prove that David wasn't Douglas' biological son so that David would lose his inheritance right.David clapped his hands to call the lawyer in. The lawyer was holding a sealed document.To Henley's surprise, it contained Douglas' will, including a share transfer contract. The family assets and properties were distributed clearl

The Fordhams were stunned. How could this be? Douglas favored David so much!"Why didn't Grandpa leave anything for you? How could you agree to this? This has to be fake!"David explained indifferently, "He wanted to, but I rejected. I've been amassing money myself for the past few years. I've never thought of getting anything from the family."He remembered something and took over a signed check. "Oh right, here's one billion dollars. Take it as Dad's 20% share. Although it's not tantamount to the market share price right now, it's a few times the fold of the 200 thousand dollars he first invested. "Take it as a token of appreciation for looking after my family."The check served as a reality check to Henley.Emery and Sawyer quickly rejected it."David, we can't take this money. We know that you've been the one supporting the family. If Dad were still alive, he wouldn't want it.""He's right. You're Mom's son, which means you also have the right to inherit part of the asse

"David, no matter what happens, you'll always be our brother. Nothing can change this.""I know our sister-in-law is in trouble. If you need anything, just tell us."David waved his hand. "I appreciate it. You may take your leave first. I have something personal to take care of."Emery and Sawyer glimpsed at Linus before leaving.Henley's family didn't budge at all. Shock riveted them at the spot."You guys should leave too."Henley had mixed feelings about this. He seemed to have lost the battle as he couldn't gain ownership of David's company.But he became the head of the family instead!To say that he had won, he didn't feel happy in the slightest.Things shouldn't have turned out this way.He didn't want any of this to happen!Driving David's family out of the family had always been his wish. He spent his whole life trying to achieve it. In the end, his attacks turned out to be nothing. "David Fordham, don't expect me to be grateful for you, I…"He didn't intend to

Jacqueline thought that she had enough reasons to justify her decisions. She was even crying! "I'm not like you. I wasn't born to be a loved princess. Women from rural areas like me have to work our asses off unless we want to live in hell."Many of them were sold off to single old men by their parents before they turned adults. They became a tool to give birth to babies. Deborah gave me a new life, and I followed her orders. That was the only way for me to survive! "On the other hand, you guys were born to be the winners in life. You don't have to lift a finger to own everything. But me? What can I do?"Olivia growled, "You're still making excuses to clean your name. So calculative and pretentious despite your young age. How ridiculous. The family you're born into shouldn't be the reason to justify your actions. You can't gloss over all the things you did to me in the past!"Two years ago, Olivia found out why she was at the last stage of cancer at such a young age. Cancer cell
