3 01 Chairman

"You are the next heiress of this family! You're already 18, in another few years you may take care of Glowne Empire, right now you shall be my secretary until comes the time you can take over the company!" The loud voice announced to the whole family.

"Father!! She's still a child!!!!" Her uncle complained. Obviously he felt angry by her grandfather's statement.

If she could read his mind she bet he would say something along the lines of, 'how dare this bitch, take what's mine!!' or 'she just a damn robot who brought the company up! Why are you giving this to her?! It already an honour to work in the company!!'

"Yes Father! She to young to hold the while company by herself!" Her uncle's wife said the same thing but she didn't hide her dislike for her.

'This damn bitch and her slut mother don't deserve it at all! How dare they take what's rightfully ours! Just die!'

She looked at the so called family she lived in for years. She only had one word for it.

Disgusting.

Her eyes caught onto her father's hand clenching the tea cup tightly, ready to shattered in pieces. She could tell he was beyond furious by the news, but could only control himself not to lash out and destroy the house.

"Grandfather, I don't think this bitch should take over the company!" Her cousin Orana spoke this time and didn't hold back her words when she pointed her finger at her.

Crash! Bang! The sound of a tea cup shattering and chair falling was heard.

Her cousin Orana face turned pale as she faced her father and his rage. Her cousin mother also was frightened by the sound and turn pale as well when she looked at her father.

Smack!

The sound of a slap resided in the room, as her father didn't hold back and slapped Orana across the face with out any mercy. Her lips where bleeding from the impact and her hand buzzed from pain. She didn't expect her uncle to slap her this hard.

She felt crazy and turned her eyes towards Elaina and as if trying to kill her with her eyes. But a menacing aura around her uncle stopped her brain and instead filled it with deep fear seeing his eyes.

"That was for calling my baby a bitch" his crystal green eyes pierced through her soul as if reading her mind and it made the young woman flinch. He felt disbelief as he looked at the three of them with bloodshot eyes.

"Joseph! How dare you!" He uncle yelled.

"One more word from you... and I'll end it all right here and now!" Her father strict tone said and didn't even spare a glance at her fuming uncle.

"Father, whatever Elaina's says she'll do. But if she doesn't want to do it don't you ever force her. Remember I still call you father, but if this continues I might as well leave this god forsaken family and never return." His rage filled eyes stare at the man in the top seat of the dining table.

"Joseph, mind you words. Elaina hasn't said a word yet. I'll obviously wait for her decision about this. My child, what do you say?" Her grandfather said in a commanding tone.

Elaina looked at her nails and touched them. She lidded eyes filled with thoughts even though her expression stay straight.

Like flipping a coin, if she choose heads, then this is her last chance to escape but if she choose tails then she and her family would remain capture in this loop of power.

What a play!

Elaina sighed and decided that best option would be making a deal with her grandfather.

"18... not to young or to old." She started and looked at her grandfather.

"I will take over the empire in 7 years. But I won't be your secretary."

"I want to be Chairman of the Glowne Empire. Whether they like it or not you shall be a spectator only grandfather."

The whole room became silent and even her father was shocked by her words.

"As always my dear you always make the most interesting deals. Otherwise how would my people respect you?" Her grandfather laughed.

His green eyes showed some seriousness and a cold aura seeped out. "If you have the ability you could. And not only that I'll willing give you half my assets if you become successful in 7 years.."

"Father!!"

"Grandfather!!"

"Listen!" The old voice coldly said in dissatisfaction. "You will be independent for 7 years and you shall start from any company and make from the the bottom to the top with your own skills. After 7 years you shall come back to the Glowne Empire and prove your worth to 8 top CEO's and 8 families. That shall be your cache to prove if you deserve the chairman seat or not. If you fail you shall only remain CEO of Glowne."

This wasn't a bad deal at all. Elaina sighed and looked at the lawyer who was beside her grandfather.

He eyes caught the sight of her uncles family gritting their teeth as power fell onto her hands.

Seven years wasn't to long or to short.

Her biggest gamble starts now.
