Even After Death

“To be exact, it's one of the Fordham family's secret business."

That statement alone was enough for Graham to understand everything. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

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 but 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.

Similar to Henley, Graham couldn't believe what was transpiring right now.

This wasn't what they were expecting! Graham had always seen David as an autocratic, prideful, and power -abusing man.

To think that the same man had actually been protecting him in secret? Unbelievable! Instead of explaining it further, David looked at Henley.

"Terrence has been working for me for many years.I personally trained him.You can ask him anything about the Fordham family business.

"I've handed over the official seal, the key to the drawer of important documents, and the safe password.Dad adopted him.You can trust him."

"You..."

Henley parted his lips, but nothing came out of him.

Something invisible was sitting on his chest.

"You and Graham are the same.You're too straightforward and will never back down.It's easy to offend people in the business world like this.Now that I won't be cleaning up your mess anymore, think before you do anything from now onward.

“Emery, you and your wife are into arts.Once I'm gone, you and Sawyer have to stay in the Fordham residence.The Fordham family is running too many businesses at once.You guys should manage the household and family business together to prosper."

Emery, who had always been an emotional person, grabbed David's hand with reddened eyes.

"I was wrong, David.I know Henley has always disliked you, but I thought you'd surely take care of everything because you're that good.If I had known this day would come, I would've stopped him from doing that."

“David, don't go! We can't do it without you! Henley, say something! This is all your fault! Are you not happy enough? Do you really want to force him to go?"

Henley was equally flustered.He didn't mean anything bad.He was merely dispirited after living in David's shadow all these years.His sole wish was to prove that he was as good as David.

That was why he did everything he could to drive David's family out of the family.

Yet, David had always been thinking for the Fordhams.

He even gave up on his inheritance right after knowing Henley's intention.

David looked at the bigger picture and, in comparison, Henley appeared like a clown.

"I...I was just..."

Henley was trying to find the words to explain himself, but nothing could be done to change David's decision.

David had made up his mind.

He said, "Enough.It's not entirely his fault.I've always been intending to step down from this position.The responsibility is too huge, and I'm really exhausted.

"The family will be counting on you in the future, Henley.Take this one billion dollars.I'll have nothing to do with the Fordham family anymore."
