914 A bandit (3)

Jasper signed the document which gives him the rights to vote instead of Ellie in her absence and all directors and shareholders present clapped. Well, everyone except for Mr. Stocker.

Mr. Stocker was observing the whole situation. He was upset that Norman left in such a disgraceful way. So, what if he didn't get those voting rights? That is no way for a man in a position of power to act.

He remembered how previous day Norman told him about Miss Young who managed to get interest of his son. Is this the same woman? If she is, how is it possible that Norman believed even for a second that she will give him her votes? And didn't Norman say that she is a gullible, clueless girl? No matter how Mr. Stocker observes this young woman, he can tell that her innocent smile is just a mask. Her eyes are sharp, and she probably planned all this just to embarrass Norman. Hmph! Serves him well when such a little girl can outsmart him.
