David's mother, however, feels the need to have a husband and then marries Mr. Murdstone, a stern and insensitive man, and also welcomes into their home the sister of Mr. Murdstone. The sister, David's step-aunt, proves even more insensitive than her brother. Both seek to remove David from his family send him to boarding school. There, David gets to know Steerforth, a fellow student who will become his greatest friend and companion, as well as the stern headmaster, Creakle.Returning from school, David finds a new little brother and a mother oppressed by her husband. Eventually, David's mother dies and David is sent off to forced labor by his step-family. During this period, David stays with the Micawber family and develops a deep friendship with them. Mr. Micawber is unable to look after the household expenses and goes into debt, at which point David decides to run away from London. After many adventures he reaches Dover, where is his aunt, Betsey Trotwood, lives.
The aunt and her roommate, Mr. Dick, welcome David and pay for David to study law at Canterbury, where David rents a room in the house of a lawyer named Wickfield. There, David develops a sincere friendship with Wickfield's daughter, Agnes, a sweet and good comforter. After completing his studies David articles at the law firm of Spenlow & Jorkins and meets Spenlow's daughter, Miss Dora, eventually falling in love.
David renews his friendship with Steerforth, who eventually reveals himself as a treacherous and amoral traitor.
David becomes a parliamentary reporter and marries Dora Spenlow during this period. The marriage turns out to be happy, and David began to be appreciated as a writer for some of his works, but after a few years his wife dies. This causes great pain to the young man, who turns to Agnes, his support in times of grief. In doing so, David discovers the virtues of Agnes, whom he had always considered a sister, and begins to feel a strong affection for her. However, the slippery and treacherous Uriah Heep, Wickfield's administrator, is also attracted to Agnes and is determined to marry her. To achieve his goal, Uriah Heep almost ruins Wickfield financially in hopes that he will submit and consent to the marriage, but is unmasked, thanks to the constant work of Micawber, who had since been hired by Uriah, as well as Traddles, another one of David's school friends. At the end of the book, David marries Agnes, who was always secretly in love with him.
