Hundreds of thoughts ran through Casper\'s mind looking at Alvin. If his men had seen Alvin leave the country, how could Alvin appear in the company?

Doesn\'t Alvin prioritize Anya?

How could Alvin leave behind Anya, Zane, and his company to attend the shareholders\' meeting?

Casper looked at the man who was storming towards him. He did use Steve Hanks to divert Anya and Alvin\'s attention.

Shouldn\'t Anya throw Steve Hanks behind the bars, file a complaint against Steve Hanks and deal with the legal procedures?

Why was Steve Hanks in the company, growling against him?

His knuckles paled when his fingers balled into a tight fist. Steve Hanks had control over five of the prominent shareholders. Those five shareholders would have stayed like mice and gone with the majority in Steve Hanks\'s absence.

Now that Steve Hanks was free and enraged at him, Alvin doesn\'t have to manipulate Steve Hanks to stand against him. As a result, those five shareholders would stand against him and it would sway other shareholders\' opinions.

Will Steve Hanks support Alvin in return for his freedom?

Always seeing Anya handle everything legally, it hadn\'t crossed Casper\'s mind that Alvin could take control into his hands and Anya wouldn\'t mind it. Well, he had no idea Anya was the one who improvised the plan.

Those apart, considering Alvin as just another shareholder of the company was stupidity. Alvin might not know or meet any of the shareholders but he was an influential businessman. Especially after establishing Skylark and buying the twenty percent shares of a large conglomerate, Alvin\'s influence was no less powerful than him – Casper who slogged his ass off for decades.

His eyes narrowed at Alvin when a thought crossed his mind. Was Alvin going to take over the company and secretly trade it to foreigners?

His brows tugged into deep frowns, turning to Liam. Was Liam supporting Alvin?

Casper instantly denied the idea in his mind. No. Liam was concerned about employees and he wouldn\'t agree to sell the company to foreigners.

Thus Casper assumed Alvin must have lied to Liam that he wouldn\'t harm the company and Liam trusted Alvin.

With similar building thoughts, questions, and theories growing in his mind, Casper and everyone heard Steve Hanks\'s pierce voice directed at Casper, "Is spreading rumors about changing CEO your business?"

The expression of many shareholders\' changed. They peeled their eyes from Alvin and turned to Casper. They were expecting the discussion to continue with changing the CEO. Wasn\'t it true?

Did they waste the past few days discussing the rumor?

Won\'t they get the chance to reach a high position?

Steve Hanks pointed his finger at himself and demanded fiercely, "Is giving me a fake promise of position your business?"

Casper: "…"

Casper gritted his teeth, feeling the eyes of disbelief. None of these would have happened if Anya had followed the rules and laws.

Then again, a question remained in his head, what was Alvin up to by revealing all these in front of shareholders?

Steve Hanks scoffed, digging Casper\'s dirt, "Your business is using the company legal team for your advantage. Let the company go to hell."

Everyone knows about the company legal team working on Gianna\'s case and failed to find out about the anti-corruption raid over the company.

Meanwhile, Rob pulled a chair for Alvin at the far opposite end of the table. Once Alvin sat down, Rob went aside and took a seat to watch the show unfold.

When they were planning to terrorize Steve Hanks and play on their terms, Steve Hanks voluntarily stepped ahead to rip off Casper\'s facade due to his fury and a broken dream.

Harrison was sitting on his chair like a blind and deaf who wasn\'t seeing or listening to anything. He didn\'t feel bad or panicked at the developments.

Casper had fallen on his face. He had fired the bullet at Alvin but the bullet returned like a boomerang. Even if he couldn\'t accept his wrongdoing, he would just have to pay for his doing.

Liam was prepared to counter his father and take the lead. Now that there was an interruption and Alvin arrived, he wasn\'t sure if he should talk or let Alvin handle it. The least he wanted at the moment was for Matthews becoming a joke in front of shareholders.

"Steve Hanks," Casper grunted to warn the man. He was at the edge to call security to throw Steve Hanks out of the company.

While a few jerked on their seats hearing Casper, Steve Hanks pointed his finger at Casper and challenged him, "Casper Matthews, do you dare to accept that you started the rumor to keep us away from Alvin Matthews?"

He wasn\'t a fool to be clueless even after all the developments. Casper was a proud Matthews. He wouldn\'t let any other man sit in power when two of his sons were alive and smart.

If Casper used him against Anya and Alvin to keep them distracted, It was easy to deduce that Casper was trying to keep Alvin away, fearing Alvin would take over the company by his influence.

With the gasps, everyone turned to Alvin who was leaning on the chair, crossing his legs, appearing colder than the winter of the city.

Why would Casper try to keep them away from Alvin?

Was Alvin trying to own more shares?

Was Alvin planning to become the CEO or seeking his right over the company?

They couldn\'t come to any conclusion. They had no knowledge of what was happening between the Matthews family and Alvin Matthews, and how their internal battle was going to impact them and their money.

"That\'s enough." Casper bellowed at Steve Hanks and the buzzing noise of the shareholders speaking to one another.

He breathed heavily and glared at Alvin. He celebrated too early thinking he had control over his company and Alvin had left the country. Alvin appeared and threw a bucket of icy water on them.

"If you are here to cause a scene, get out of here. Security." Casper roared looking at Alvin.

Everyone but Alvin and Rob: "..."

Alvin wasn\'t an idiot to scream to get his work done. He used Steve Hanks to stir the peace of the meeting and trouble Casper.

Steve Hanks didn\'t realize it was for him. He took another step closer and hissed, "Why would he leave? Casper Matthews, we won\'t tolerate your autocracy anymore."

The security who rushed inside held Steve Hanks and tugged him towards the door. Steve Hanks shrugged them and scowled at them, "How dare you touch me?"

One of the five shareholders stood up and retorted, "Chairman Matthews, you can\'t do this to a shareholder."

Another one of them followed, speaking for Steve Hanks, "I demand your response to Mr. Hanks\'s words."

Then other shareholders started voicing their opinion, asking how Casper could manipulate them.

The whole time, Alvin was utterly mute, watching his father face the unmanageable shareholders for the first time in his life.

Casper gritted his teeth harder, meeting Alvin\'s confident yet icy stare. If he says the truth, the commotion rises. Lying could create a problem. So he needs to handle it smartly.

He slapped the desk and silenced the noise. Yes, he did fear Alvin manipulating the shareholders and hurting the company. That doesn\'t mean he was naive in the field. He had more experience than Alvin\'s age.

He began without a hint of hesitation, "Yes, I started the rumors. Have you wondered why?" His unyielding voice had more weight than Steve Hanks\'s screams.

Everyone looked at each other in complete silence. Casper was a busy person. Why would he waste his time spreading rumors?

Casper chose to blame Alvin so that Alvin\'s manipulation doesn\'t work later on, "He was manipulating Liam and intending to sell the company to foreigners."

There were loud gasps of shock in the hall. Liam furrowed at Casper\'s words. What is his father up to?

will Casper ever stop conspiring against Alvin and look at Alvin as a son?
