“So, why isn’t that fair?” I asked, still not getting his point.
Hayden grinned at me and gave me a look that seemed to pity me and my stupidity. I glared back at him as I silently demanded for an answer.
“Think about it, Malissa. People are asked the put up their hands. Nothing in the rules states that they have to put their hands up at the same time. So, say…who will put their hand up first?” Hayden prompted me to think.
“Huh?” I murmured in confusion.
“Even worst…let’s say that I don’t put my hand up when they ask who is in favor. What do you think those old Torex folks are going to do?” Hayden asked with an innocent smile on his lips.
They won’t put their hands up. If the next heir doesn’t put his hand up, they probably won’t put their hand up to vote in favor. This is all because they can see what the other people are choosing to do, and they can react to it.
Everyone will be watching everyone else. Why didn’t I realize this before?
