Chapter 557 Arthur's Soliloquy
- My name was Arthur, and I was the third son of the Winthrop Family. I had always lived in my brother Callum's shadow ever since I was a child. I remembered from a long time ago that Callum was always able to get high grades without seeming to make any effort. However, no matter how hard I tried, I could not catch up to him. So, our parents, Theodore and Margot, were biased toward him. Sometimes I would envy why he could get such high grades until I saw him burning the midnight oil, and then I began to hate him again. He was so good at pretending. I never understood his efforts; I just felt that he was a hypocritical person.
- My father had trained him to become the future heir of Winthrop Group ever since he was a child, and Edmund could assist him as the vice president. The rest of us were not even allowed to join the company. When I was a child, I also told my father that I wanted to join the company, even if it was just to help Callum. However, I was ruthlessly rejected by my father. He said that my interest was not really in business and that I should forget about this idea and do what I really wanted to do, but ever since I was little, I had always wanted to join Winthrop Group. How could my interest not be in business? I knew it was just an excuse to push me away. In fact, he never had my best interests in his heart.
- Later on, Callum inherited the company as expected. Edmund became the vice president and Blake entered the entertainment industry. As for Max, he pursued further studies and could continue his racing hobby too. While everyone else had the freedom to pursue their preferred paths in life, I found myself studying medicine despite never having had a passion for it. Luckily, I had a natural talent for it and managed to learn a great deal in just a few years. I eventually returned to Damoria and opened a hospital.
