Chapter 1:

"The doctor said you have to hold on for a long time until this month or next month….."

"Cough."

Daesang hospital VIP room.

A stout old man lying on a large bed slowly got up.

Then his secretary stopped talking and helped the old man.

"Is everyone here?"

"Yes, Chairman. Everyone has gathered."

The old man lifted his head with difficulty and looked at his children sitting in front of his hospital bed.

Vice Chairman of Daesang Group, President of Daesang Electronics, Chairman of Daesang Department Store, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Daesang Medical.

To the elderly, they looked like employees of his own company rather than loved ones.

However, the old man spat out words that were different from his thoughts.

"First Yong-seok, second decoration, fourth Yoon-hee, fifth Goseok, daughter-in-law and our eldest grandson. Everyone has gathered."

At the old man's words, everyone began to act disgustingly.

The sons wiped away tears that hadn't come out, and the daughters and daughters-in-law covered their faces with handkerchiefs.

At least the old man thought his eldest grandson was the best.

"...."

It was because he was aiming for what he wanted honestly without saying anything.

Seeing the eldest grandson's eyes, the old man carefully opened his mouth.

"I know very well why you all came this far. It must be because of my heritage."

"Father, we didn't do that, we came because we were worried about you."

"My father is very sad to say…. We have no interest in that."

The old man raised his voice at the nonsense that followed.

"How many times have we all gathered like this? The day we all got together."

"That's it…. We met often. Even after all of this, our family is going to stick together under my father's lead.... ."

"once."

"Yes?"

"We met once. It's all gathered like this. Seven years ago, the day I got into a car accident and was hospitalized."

The ward became quiet in an instant.

What were these old ladies thinking when they said this?

"Yong-seok and Yoon-hee are stocks, and Jangsang-i and Goseok are buildings."

"Father, what is that all of a sudden… … ?"

"These are the things you guys got as a birthday present."

"Yes?"

"But now that I think about it. I've never received a gift like that before."

"...."

"Except for this letter."

The old man pryed open the blanket and pulled out an old letter from under it.

"I got it on my birthday after a car accident 7 years ago."

"… … Yes?"

"The third one was written by Han Seok-i's son."

"Ha, Han Seok? That guy!"

First, as Yongseok's voice grew louder, the old man resolutely cut him off.

"So my grandson wrote me a birthday letter and that was the only birthday present I ever received."

"...."

"So I decided. All my inheritance, I will give it to him."

"!!!"

Everyone looked dumbfounded at the shocking remarks of the old man, but soon came to their senses and jumped up.

"father! What nonsense is that... … !"

"Father, what are you talking about!? Master Han Seok had previously whistle-blowed... Someone who is no longer family!"

"But you're giving an inheritance to such a bastard's son?! Are you kidding me right now!!"

Hearing the cries of his family mixed with anger and resentment as the road ran wild, the old man quietly lay back in bed.

No matter what anyone said, the old man had no intention of changing his mind.

The old man clutched the letter in one hand and quietly closed his eyes with a smile on his lips.

Soon, the old man's property worth 3 trillion will go to the unknown son of the son who was kicked out of the chaebol family.

****

"Perhaps it's because he's senile, and grandfather has completely lost his senses."

"What?"

a few weeks later

The residence of the eldest son, Vice Chairman Lee Yong-seok.

Vice Chairman Lee Yong-seok, his wife, and his son Lee Yong-jae were having tea.

"What do you mean, son?"

Lee Yong-jae's mother looked at Lee Yong-jae with curious eyes.

"The accident in which Uncle passed away, the culprit was not even caught in the hit and run, but wouldn't someone who had a brain would know who did it? That guy too."

Sipping tea, Vice Chairman Lee Yong-seok's wife listened to her son.

"He wouldn't want to get paid by the people who killed his parents."

"Hey, how could he refuse that big money? He was kicked out and would probably have a hard time living...."

"He's going to say no. I know him well. When he was a kid, he couldn't stand injustice."

Lee Yong-jae's eyes were full of confidence.

Then his mother put down the teacup and her eyes sparkled.

"Is that so?"

"Yes, don't worry. We'll get the inheritance back."

"Ho ho ho! Right! As expected of my son! You calculated that, too!"

Lee Yong-jae's mother's shrill laughter pierced my ears. Then, Lee Yong-jae secretly looked at Vice Chairman Lee Yong-seok.

"...."

Vice Chairman Lee Yong-seok quietly savoring the tea without any reaction. It meant that he sympathized with what his son Lee Yong-jae said.

That time when Lee Yong-jae held the teacup with a faint smile.

Vice Chairman Lee Yong-seok's secretary hurriedly ran into the living room.

"Vice, Vice President!"

"Why are you making such a fuss?"

Vice Chairman Lee Yongseok, who had been quietly tilting his teacup, turned his head sharply.

"The, the inheritance of Chairman-nim...."

At the secretary's words, the eyes of Lee Yongjae and his mother also turned to him.

"He, he accepted it. That son of former President Lee Hanseok...."

"...What?!"

"He even kowtowed... He accepted it with great joy...."

As the secretary lowered his head, Vice Chairman Lee Yongseok set the teacup down with a trembling hand.
