David waved, motioning for his assistant to pour Linus tea.

David had finally regained his composure from the surprise.

The two brothers were next to each other. They looked so much alike.

Although one was involved in business while the other was in the military, the vibe they gave off was the same.

Olivia couldn't help but inwardly exclaim the wonders of genes. After all, David and Linus didn't share the smother, and they hadn't lived together at all.

But when they sat together, they gave off the sair to others.

Meanwhile, Henley, who was also David's brother, began to panic the moment David showed up.

Linus' appearance made his stomach churn more. Henley was a bundle of nerves right now.

One could clearly tell how flustered he was. He had lost his cool.

How could David hand over Fordham Group to someone like Henley with peace of mind? David looked at Henley. "Henley, are you sure you want to compete for the company with me? I'm giving you one more chance. If you give up right now, I can pretend that none of this happened." Henley would always be David's younger brother. As the elder brother, he felt the responsibility of protecting his younger siblings. Douglas once said, "David, Henley's foolish and prideful; Emery is uninterested in family business; and Sawyer is blinded by love. You're the only one we can count on in the family. There's more responsibilities for you to take upon in the future." David's late mother also said, "You're the elder brother. They're your younger siblings. You should be more understanding." Even if they hadn't said such things, David would've protected the Fordham family because that was what he had promised to himself.

David felt grateful to Douglas, who pulled both David and his mother out of their homeless life.

During that turmoil, having a safe place to stay was something to be grateful for. Having nice clothes to wear and delicious food to eat was a luxury.

Not only did Douglas provide the materials David and his mother needed, but Douglas also spent his tcultivating David. Douglas perceived David as one of the family.

The fact that Douglas raised David gave him enough reason to protect the Fordham family.

When David found out how much Henley disliked him, he was worried that his true identity might bring the family and his mother trouble if it was exposed. While looking after the Fordham family, he built up his own business, intending to separate his assets from the Fordham family.

He did his everything to fulfill his duty as a son and the elder brother. Yet, Henley just wouldn't show mercy.

Honestly, David was disappointed.

At the stime, Henley couldn't read the emotions in David's eyes.

They were so complicated and deep. Henley couldn't read through David's emotions and was quite worried.

Graham nudged him. "Don't forget how much we sacrificed for today, Dad. How could you give up at this moment? Linus has nothing to do with our family. He's from the Heath family. Grandpa's dead, and there's no one Uncle David can depend on. So what if it's the Heath family? This is our family matter!" When Graham pointed out that there was no one David could depend on, David felt bitter.

In the end, he failed to protect anything. He had also let Douglas down.

Anything could happen in life. David was just a mere human. Perfection had always been out of the question.

He could never satisfy all sides.

David quietly waited until Henley made up his mind. "David, I still want to retrieve whatever that's rightfully mine Mom and Dad aren't with us anymore. How could you still stay in Fordham Group so shamelessly?" David shook his head, sighing. "You disappoint me, Henley Fordham. Fine, have it your way. I hope you don't regret it."
