Another boring board meeting had come and gone and the stockholders were slowly filing out of the conference room. The one highlight about this particular meeting was that Aaron's proposal to expand to Monaco had been approved with a majority vote of 9-2.
Aaron and his dummy shareholders obviously approved the plan but there were only five of them. To his surprise, everyone but his father and Samuel were in favor. It was a profitable plan; he was fairly certain Alistair only shot it down to spite him.
He knew he couldn't control his son and was bitter about it. Aaron went to events that were declared absolutely vital but, other than that, didn't do a thing his father wanted.
He bought his own apartment and hired his own staff the moment he graduated from college and made no secret that he was distancing himself from his parents. A controlling man like Alistair Hale wouldn't be pleased by that.
