Bai Ye Qing hung around the corridors, listening to gossip and finally realized why his father had called. Bai Yu worked hard and rarely called his family. Except for dinner where nothing about business was discussed, Bai Ye Qing rarely received a call from his father. About work, at that.
It was no meeting. All the higher-ups were in a meeting, questioning Bai Wenxi. It was somewhat of a trial before the jury decided if Wenxi would be confirmed as the executive authority in the company.
Bai Ye Qing's heart dropped to his stomach. There had been no talk of this before. Or had he not paid attention while the others spoke.
He could feel the eyes of the others and the whispers. He could imagine them saying that he was the useless son who got nothing while his elder brother worked hard and got such a high position despite being so young.
Yes, his hard-working brother. Working days on end, sometimes not coming home. Only sleeping on the weekends.
I was looking through some files on serial killers. Especially doctors who killed patients and got away with it because no one was suspicious. It happens more often than we can imagine. Scary stuff.
