Aaron was going over the numbers for the hundredth time trying to figure out whether or not he could get the stock prices driven up early. He desperately needed Alexander to sell him that 2% he needed or he wouldn't be able to collect those shares from his father safely and boot him out.
The evidence of insider trading was still completely circumstantial so he couldn't take it to the police but he could definitely use it to subdue his father once he was in control of 51% of the company's shares.
So close. He was so close! Once he did this, Keeley would be able to relax a bit. Goodness knows she needed to. She had gone to the doctor again twice in the past couple weeks and her blood pressure problem was holding steady.
At this rate, she would almost certainly be giving birth in March. It made Aaron even more determined to get this done.
