Hee family Villa
**************
The Hee family was a simple family of two generations living together. Mr Hee Gan the head and CEO of the Hee family and Hee group respectively. He held the Hee family has the custodian of all its assets which was passed down to him by his grandfather. His wife Qui Song the daughter of the Song family in Hong Kong the capital of China. She bore Gan Hee only a child- Tang Hee mysteriously the same age as Jordan Hee
***************
Ten years ago when Gan Hee was still in his prime he had fallen in love with Jordan mother. The two were like a matching pair practically inseparable and they married five years after.
It was rumored that Gan Hee and Fenglin Wood(Jordan's mother)shortly after the birth of Jordan Hee.
Apparently, Fenglin was an English woman but a citizen of China by descent and Gan's Father did not agree to their marriage but later agreed under the condition that he performs the traditional rite for another woman whom they picked for him. He agreed and they consummated
She gave birth and started claiming rights. Gan Hee decided to confess to Fenglin but she got angry and decided to go on a vacation to England to clear her mind leaving Jordan alone with his father. The plane was intercepted and she never returned since then.
Shortly after, he married Qui Song and they had been together since. Although Jordan Hee and Tang Hee were offspring of the same father they treated each other like the other didn't exist.
****************
Qui Song and Gan Hee stood in the dimly lit study discussing the future of the Hee group
"I've decided to send Jordan abroad"
Gan Hee declared
"But why?"
Qui Song asked puzzled with the sudden declaration
"I need him to study and learn in the best university. Everything he needs to know must be passed down to him in the right proportion. After all he will succeed me and become the next CEO"
Gan Hee said firmly. If the first sentence was ambiguous the final one was clear as crystal
"What about my son?"
Qui Song asked obviously offended. Gan Hee walked across the office and held Qui Song hands
"I'll not mistreat your son l. After all he is also my son. He will also get the best education but not abroad"
He said reassuringly. It was natural for her to be concerned about her son.
"I want my son to become the next CEO"
Qui Song declared.
"Impossible"
Gan Hee roared and walked away from her facing the window.
"Why?"
She asked
"I thought we agreed that no matter what happens Jordan will take over the company. Why the change of heart?"
"That was then"
Qui Song replied firmly, a sinister smile curling up
"I thought we still had time before the choice was made, I wanted Tang Hee to prove himself to you but apparently in your heart you only have one son"
"How could you say that"
Gan Hee protested
"I always treated them equally and without any sign of favour to another"
"You really want to make Jordan the CEO"
"Jordan can only become the CEO after I die or after he attains a certain age"
Gan Hee said still facing the window
"But Tang is your first son and you know that"
"I know but no one else knows so how do we explain it to them?"
Gan asked
"I can organize a press conference tomorrow morning"
Qui Song said Indifferently
"And tell them the son of a mistress is the first child..... Never!!"
Gan Hee said.
"So you still consider Fenglin that b***h as your wife"
"She's not a b***h"
"Gan Hee I always loved you and dedicated my life to you. Is this how you repay me?"
Qui Song asked
"It is what it is?"
Gan Hee declared decisively and Qui Song stormed out of the room angrily.

Wei Group Conference Hall
*******************
The atmosphere was ambiguous with all the members of the board staring at the three brothers and then at Mr Wei as if the answer was encrypted on his face.
He coughed twice and continued
"So after careful observations, I've decided that the next CEO of the Wei group will be"
He looked at Feng Wei who was also staring at him keenly, then at Chen Wei who seemed to be observing everyone at the same time and at Khan Wei who appeared relaxed like he doesn't care about the decision"
"The next Next successor is and will be decided by voting among the board of directors"
The smart TV behind Mr Wei suddenly came alive revealing the three brothers name . Each member of the board had a tab which was connected to the TV and the voting began.
The members of the board were already grateful enough that Mr Wei had given them the chance to decide and they thought carefully about it before voting. Both Feng Wei and Chen Wei were outstanding but Feng Wei was only predicted to take over because he was the first son.
At the end of the voting the board of directors were torn between Feng Wei and Chen Wei. Khan Wei was not even a part of the directors thought.
Feng looked at him Khan but he seemed unbothered even giving Feng Wei a thumbs up.
The voting was a tie. It was time for the brothers to vote themselves. Feng pressed the button quickly and surprisingly Chen Wei status bar moved forward a bit.. On the other hand Chen was staring blankly at the device in front of him. If he voted himself he will take over the entire property but if he voted Feng. It would still be a tie. He flicked his finger and Feng's status bar shot forward.
Mr Wei was shocked, everyone eyes turned to him. It was up to him to make the final choice. But rudely enough Mr Wei had decided to stay out of the voting process.
"Bring in their offsprings. Let them vote"
The whole hall fell silent. Although nobody was saying it they all knew Chen Wei had a better chance of winning because he had two children while Feng had one.
The offsprings trooped in one after the other and in the end the three stood in front of the entire board...
"The choice is up to you"
Someone Said
They need not be told what was going on. They immediately started pondering over it.
Emma Wei was the first to vote.
"I vote Uncle Chen"
She said raising up her hand.
HISS....
The board of directors knew it was over now Chen was obviously the next CEO. One of them immediately stood up to shake him and curry favour with him.
"We vote Uncle Feng"
Chen's daughter and son said directly.
They were all stunned. Emma's eye lit up. She didn't want her father to succeed Mr Wei and She had betrayed him. But her cousins had instinctively made him the next CEO.
The director with his hand in mid air quickly sat down in a moment of total embarrassment. Chen Wei stood up and patted Feng on the shoulder.
"Congratulations brother it was well deserved"
And immediately the whole conference room erupted into shouts of congratulations until the meeting was dissolved.
