The Traps of Black Swan

Leon jerked up in disbelief. He couldn't believe while he, her family, and many business company chiefs' were thinking Ava Kelly was going to be the president of Kelly International, she was working at the whole new company.

It wasn't his fault for his assumption. He had personally seen Ava Kelly's sign of approval on Kelly International investments and projects so he had assumed just like others.

While Leon was lost in clearing his thoughts, Dylan briefed about the information they received, "The President of the Skylar is from country S. We were only able to fetch the information that Dax Grant met this president in country S. However, Dax Grant has all the powers over the company."

Dylan pointed his chin at the tab in Leon's hand and continued, "We got a picture of an old contract signed by Ava Kelly as a financial manager. After a month, a new financial manager Kelvin is appointed and he still works at the company."

Dylan moved next to Leon and opened a file in the tab, "We were able to fetch that Ava Kelly had put down this whole financial year plan before her wedding with Vance. I have verified it, Skylar actually followed her plan."

Leon was partly hearing Dylan, he was actually thinking how she could be alive after being shot right on her chest to pierce through her heart. It doesn't make sense that the one who died in front of his eyes by his own hands is actually alive.

Dylan didn't bother if Leon was listening to him or lost in thoughts but reported everything their team had collected. He never missed a detail in case Leon cross-checks with the team. "Manager Kelvin hardly knows anything about her other than the name. The rest doesn't even know that named person exists."

Little did they know those were the information Aarvi and Dax permitted to reveal so that they reached Leon's hand. Since Leon's men struggled to get that information for many days, they assumed it as their success and efforts that they obtained the information about Skylar.

Dylan and Leon, both know Ava was good in business but she grew up more like an orphan, neglected by her parents so they believed she wouldn't have so much money to open a company right under her parents' nose.

Leon tapped on the screen of the tab thinking how could a girl who was in a cooking course be so good at business planning and market analysis. "I want a complete biography of Ava Kelly, check if President Kelly invested in Skylar." He decided to solve it front the bottom instead of mindlessly attacking one.

On one side, he wanted to keep Skylar aside and handle Ava Kelly but strongly felt the Craft company was attacked by Ava Kelly and Dax acquired. Doesn't that mean he is in contact with Ava Kelly?

Or did Ava Kelly inform Dax Grant and Shawn Rivas so they are silently attacking me? But Ava Kelly is alive.

Leon wanted to scream in frustration for unable to believe Ava Kelly alive. Probably until he sees her, he won't be able to accept it.

Dylan broke the eerie silence filled with Leon's fury and asked in a dilemma as she wasn't with her friends or cousin, "Could it be her parents or President Kelly supporting her from behind?"

Leon let out a dark chuckle hearing him, "Family? If she had stepped in their family, her father and mother would have poisoned her and buried secretly."

Leon sat on his leather swivel chair with a mixture of emotions, he was pitying her for having such parents and also fumed remember what she had done to him,

"Her grandfather?" He scoffed, "Do you think one who ran away to a different country when she needed him the most, will help her?"

Leon shrugged, three years back, he actually had plans to control Hayden Kelly to have Ava Kelly but he didn't have to do anything and Hayden just flew away to a different country in the name of the business.

Dylan didn't respond to the question. He had expected Leon's lowly act of kidnapping her family to bring her out. Now it made sense why Leon didn't bother about the Kelly family excluding Zain Kelly.

Dylan went to his office room and started his work, he wanted to see if Ava Kelly could really snatch away the business deal right under their nose when they already know she will try to push Leon to another failure.

It wasn't too late when Dylan and Leon's mobile started screaming at them. Dylan had to again rush to Leon's room where he was grimly watching the news channel.

Leon's dark dangerous tone sounded, "She is targeting each one."

Dylan knew the four officers, one is the captain who protects Leon's illegal businesses in Mocon. Another one is the lieutenant, son of the Mayor, and who is a dealer of drugs supporting Leon. A lady lieutenant closes any case registered against Leon, another lady Lieutenant who destroys every proof submitted against Leon and provides the confidential government and department information to Leon.

Chief Powell had suspended the four officers under bribery which obviously was taken lightly by the people as it wasn't new.

It was only when anonymous and victims' posts appeared against those officers, the netizens and media went crazy.

The captain had the billions worth of property under his wife's name and millions of money flowed to his wife's account who is a house maker and from a lower-middle-class family. While the Netizens were guessing how he could have so much wealth, another video was released. It had proof of the captain let go of the criminals and helping them to escape.

Before the fire could cool, a video of Lieutenant Hudson harassing a girl in the club went viral, unsurprisingly that video was shared by the girl herself explaining how she was affected by it and asked the law to punish him. Of course, she wasn't alone, she had a whole team of organizations to protect her.

Here, the netizens didn't take long to pull Mayor Hudson and smeared dirt on his face, ruining his whole reputation.

Then the proof against a lady lieutenant was released, it was a video of the lady tampering with the evidence sneakily. She was rubbing off the fingerprints from the evidence before sending it for testing.

The proof was also released against another lady Lieutenant. It was a video of the officer using drugs and the dealer next to her was none other than Ellis Hudson.

Leon and Dylan could easily say, those proofs were meticulously waited and recorded to use at the right time.

The netizens demanded to dethrone Mayor Hudson stating he will help his son by sitting in that powerful position, then they demanded the government to punish the evil, not just suspension.

Those four officers were in the hospital recovering from Saturday's dose. They had no idea how to handle it but the media sneaked into their rooms and poured down the questions.

....

The anxious one in them was Chief Powell. He was watching the whole turn of events that were elevating his fear. He didn't dare to step out of his house and started drinking from the morning.

Rather than attacking him, leaving him to watch the four officers' career reaching the end with the chances of long term imprisonment was causing more psychological damage to him.

'Help... I need help... Leon... Leon Harmon....' He found his savior.
