The Traps of Black Swan

Dax was surprised hearing her but he followed her thinking about what she actually wants from Aeon or Harmon family. How much ever he brainstormed, he just couldn't understand her thought process and plans against Harmons.

Aeon felt like somebody poured a bucket of cold water on him, awakening from his last and safest hope. "President Evans" He grunted standing up. "I have been waiting for you these days and you are toying with me. Is this..."

Aarvi paused and turned around. Her lopsided smirk halted Aeon from speaking.

'Is she angry or disgusted? Why can't I deal with her?' He wanted to wipe off that smirk given a chance.

Aarvi spoke calmly, "'The Harmon!' President Harmon, I will give you a quickie. Sean Harmon, a philanderer who uses girls like a piece of cloth on his body. Leon Harmon, a psychopath who controls every last person in the room and you! Let me think what is so great about you..."

Aeon's face was ugly as the dungeon glaring at her. Even though what she said was the truth, he couldn't understand why she is bringing up his family again and again.

Aarvi finally let out an expression of amazed, "Oh yeah! You think every woman around you wants to get into your pants and impress you on the bed."

Dax controlled laughing on Aeon's face and stood unfazed looking at disgruntled Aeon.

Aeon knew he misunderstood when she met him but he wasn't wrong at his place because he is a movie director and many aspiring actresses tried to get on the bed so he thought the same.

He wanted to laugh at himself for expecting her to ignore those aside thinking as a misunderstanding.

Aarvi's voice turned cold, glaring at him straight in the eyes, "So who the hell is toying the people? Keep your bullshit idealism away from me."

She crossed her arms and advised, "Go and cry or beg or do anything at your elder brother, your deadline is the end of working hours."

Aeon pointed his finger at her in irritation, "You-" But Aarvi and Dax exited without looking back. Aeon wanted to extend until his movie airs but didn't expect the deadline to close up.

At any cost, he wasn't at the stage to lose his company and work for others. He left Skylar to think about what to do quickly as he had just four hours.

Dax controlled his curiosity until they entered her office, "Honeycomb, what are you even planning? It isn't like we are in need of money and it isn't big of a deal for Skylar to start with."

Aarvi went towards glass wall and pulled her mobile out to call 'Apple Pie.' It soon got through and heard a voice of concern. [Pumpkin, are you alright?]

Aarvi gently hummed, "Aeon Harmon left. If he chooses plan A or B isn't a big deal. If it's A, timing is very important."

[You brat, you almost scared me by the call. Don't worry, I am on it.]

Aarvi didn't respond looking outside. She wanted to ask him to meet her but she couldn't make herself say those words.

[Pumpkin, I have sent the complete report on Jayce Porter, Aeon Harmon's assistant. You should get rid of him quickly.]

Aarvi hummed again.

[I will call you later. Lots of hugs and kisses. Bye.]

Aarvi held her mobile down with many thoughts in mind and heard Dax say, "If you want to meet Brother Zain, ask him to come. Dum Dum, he can't read your mind especially over a call."

Zain Kelly, Aarvi's cousin who was closer to Aarvi than her own brother and parents.

Aarvi shook her head. She knows Zain, her Apple Pie wouldn't meet her so easily.

There are many who blame themselves for her situation. Her grandfather, Shawn, Dax, Aaron, Master Rivas, and Zain (Apple Pie).

Zain is scared to face the new Aarvi blaming everything on himself. She had wanted to leave the country with him after her wedding dropped but he didn't take her giving Skylar as the reason so that she could stop unnecessary thinking and keep herself busy with office work.

Dax sighed in resignation and asked, "What is your plan A and B? Why is your brain so crafty?"

Aarvi smiled seeing him distressed thinking about her plans. "I have a big plan, Dax. Do you think I just want his company?... I will take it but before that Harmon brothers should get some blows."

Dax rolled his eyes hearing her skip about the plan. "What is the difference between A and B?" He tried a new way.

Aarvi leaned on the desk facing him. "The last outcome is having Amiah in my hands."

Dax's lips twitched hearing her play with words, "That you could have done it five minutes back." He really wanted to open her head and check her brain.

Aarvi giggled seeing him frustrated. She covered his side vision of both eyes by keeping her palms on either side of his forehead like horse blinders. "What can you see now?"

He pinched her cheeks and cheekily said, "Your pretty face."

Then she removed her hands and asked, "What can you see now?"

"You... and the room..." Dax slowly realized what she was trying to imply. "You mean, your target is Amiah but you don't just view your target but controlling side vision too and get the Amiah Entertainment."

Aarvi patted his head, "Smart boy." Her first target isn't Amiah, it's Leon and the Amiah was just a side vision to keep the peripheral vision in place.

Dax rolled his eyes and leaned back on his chair, "Dum Dum, you are always smart but you were just too innocent. If you had prioritized yourself back then than your narrow-minded parents, that stupid ex-fiance wouldn't be in the picture and I wouldn't be thrusting his blood. Hmph."

Aarvi smiled hearing his 'Hmph' and tried to brush off the topic. Even though she needed to learn the real cruel world, she suffered way too much for that. "Speaking of ex-fiance, flex your muscles. I will give you a chance to beat him in the boxing ring."

Dax's smile was evil saying, "I'm waiting for it." He paused and asked curiously, "You have plans ready for Hays too? And what about if plans A and B fail against Harmons?"

Aarvi's face deadpanned saying, "I will destroy."

Dax continued to torture her to know the plans but Aarvi didn't tell.

At Harmon groups headquarters

Aeon left the Skylar and met Jayce in a cafe who undoubtedly convinced him to meet Leon Harmon. Standing at the door of Leon's office, Aeon didn't want to enter. He knows what Leon will do once he helps.

Jayce whispered, "Aeon, for Amiah."

Clenching his fist tight, Aeon repeated in his mind, 'For Amiah'

Aarvi's Plan A, she wanted him to go to his brother - Checked.
