In the office of Vinci Rivera at ten past nine, every shareholder had arrived at the venue, except for Keegan. Only the seat in front of Aldor was empty.

Chandler swept his gaze across Keegan’s seat and pushed up his sleeve to check the time.

A board member sitting beside him immediately understood what he was doing.

Then, he cleared his throat and said,” Aldor, we’ve waited long enough. When will your boss arrive? The whole board is waiting for him. He can’t disregard us like this even if he’s very confident in winning, right?”

Aldor lifted his gaze and said, “Mr. Kane has been kidnapped. I would like to request an extension for this meeting.”

Everyone in the room fell silent upon hearing what Aldor said. Then, someone chuckled softly, followed by a wave of loud laughter.

“Aldor, today isn’t the first of April.”

“Kidnapped? Are you filming a movie here? You’ve got to be joking.”

“Is he just hiding somewhere because he’s afraid that he’ll lose the election?”

Aldor did not respond and remained silent.

“Quiet, please.” Chandler knocked on the table, and the laughter gradually subsided.
