Linus rushed over from overseas. Prior to this, he had a basic understanding of the Fordham family through videos and pictures.The way Linus thought was different from Henley's family.Although Linus and David were half-brothers, Linus knew that Mason had a regret.Many years ago, Linus knew that Mason had loved a woman a lot.If that woman had given birth to Mason's child, it might make up for Mason's regret.Linus had been pampering Krystal for his whole life only to find out that she wasn't his biological sister. If he actually had a business genius brother, that would be good news to Linus!Aside from being a family, they could join hands in both the political and business worlds to bring their family to higher heights.After Olivia told Mason about the matter, the Heath family had a discussion.Tatiana had no reason to throw a tantrum as David's mother had passed on. After all, Mason loved David's mother before Tatiana showed up.Furthermore, David was one capable man. A

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 come this 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 his!"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.Instead of revealing Olivia's matter, Linus took another approach. "Nice to meet you, David. I'm Linus Heath, your half-brother. Dad can't come to see you due to his special identity, so I've come in his stead.""D-D

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

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 same mother, and they hadn't lived together at all.But when they sat together, they gave off the same air 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 g

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

Although it was supposed to be their family matter, Jacqueline didn't know why she felt anxious as the clock ticked by. Henley didn't have an inkling of her thought. The sense of defeat was wearing him down.He lost. The meticulous plan he devised failed in the end.To Henley, David only seemed to be wielding his power in front of him like a winner.Emery and Sawyer came to the scene not long after. They were relatively calm as they didn't share the same notion as Henley.Even though they didn't share the same mother, David was still their half-brother! There was no reason for them to go against David."David, are you alright?" said Emery."I'm glad you're alright, David," Sawyer greeted.After small talk, they finally noticed Linus, who hadn't left the room. "Isn't he…""This is Mr. Linus Heath. I'll explain to you about him later. I gathered everyone here because of a family matter."Even though the two brothers were curious about the reason for Linus' visit, David was abl

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 shares. 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 assets.

"To be exact, it's one of the Fordham family's secret business."That statement alone was enough for Graham to understand everything.He thought his smooth sailing career in showbiz was owed to his capability, thinking that his encounter with an excellent manager wasn't just pure luck.The first drama he starred in was of top quality as well.How could there be so many coincidences? Someone was there to help behind the scenes."It was you." Graham didn't expect that his father wasn't the one protecting him this entire time. Instead, it was the uncle he looked down on.Graham shut his eyes. "So you're the actual owner of Star Records Entertainment. I didn't know that.""As a veteran, you know the rules in showbiz. So, you're the most dependable person I can entrust Star Records Entertainment to. Your grandfather and I talked about it too."Graham tightly clenched the hem of his shirt as his emotions churned in him. He didn't know how to express his feelings at the moment. Simi
