In a Blur

It was finally Monday. The D-day Casper dreaded. His lawyer had failed to meet Alvin. There was no information about Alvin's plans.

He hesitantly entered the meeting filled with the board members. They were supposed to elect the CEO of the company. Many high-level employees, managing directors of the branches, and some directors were eligible candidates for the position.

His eyes widened when his gaze fell on Linus Collins in the hall instead of Alvin. He sauntered towards his seat trying to grasp onto the situation.

The meeting began with a briefing about the voting and the candidates. Slowly, Casper discerned Alvin's move and turned to Linus in disbelief. 

Two weeks ago, Alvin brought Linus to the shareholders' meeting. Linus was Alvin's plan and Alvin hadn't changed the plan at all. 

Alvin distracted him by selling the Matthews shares to the foreign investor. Casper failed to see through the plan and gloriously fell for the scheme.
