"Can't you learn from David?" "David is smart, but why do I have a stupid son like you?" "Why can't youunderstand such a simple report? If you were David Those were the words Henley heard the most.
He was always compared with David because he was the second son.
As the second son, Henley appeared so ordinary and was overshadowed by David.
Henley worked hard, but there was a huge difference between effort and talent.
David wasn't only smart; he was also a hard-working man.
In addition to his talent, he worked so hard that Henley could never surpass him forever.
Hence, David became that pall of trauma clouding over Henley for eternity.
Henley had been waiting his entire life for this day to come.
This time, he could finally drive David's family out of Fordham Group and retrieve what was rightfullyhis.
"Avery, you're smart, so I guess I can just go straight to the point.
Even if you've bought some shares, Douglas’ shares are with us.

"Graham, I didn't know you hated me so much." Everyone was surprised.
That was David, who was announced dead due to a plane crash! Olivia, who was in disguise, helpedDavid to the room.

He would even speak softly to people.
However, his character completely changed when he was out there.
