The Traps of Black Swan

Dax exploded hearing Aarvi behave innocent, Who was she trying to fool? He is already to accustomed her detailed plans, [You exactly knew I would rile up Billy Craft against Leon Harmon to know about you. You also knew he wouldn't tell me but go and threaten Leon Harmon. Now Craft will be destroyed by Leon Harmon while you enjoy the show. You cunning girl, how dare you use me without telling me?]

Aarvi really appreciates how Dax kept track of Leon's things and how he discerned her plan. It was as he said. Leon was busy finding her, that is Amiah's shareholder, Sean's Beauty in Black, and the one who released his pictures. He wouldn't be level headed by continuous failure. During this time he wouldn't tend to anybody without being able to accept that things aren't in his control.

Billy was a man who people could easily manipulate, with his company's current state and how he was falling down, he undoubtedly would request for help, if denied he wouldn't think twice to threaten for the same. Leon Harmon hates the threats more than anything so she left the so-called friends to fight.

"Dax, you are smart." Aarvi praised the grim big child on the other end but he wasn't happy yet, [No, I need your apology first.] Dax demanded.

She knew she should have told him and she shouldn't use her friends as her pawns, Since those two would help her even bury a dead body so she wouldn't mind telling it, "Alright, I am sorry, I will give you a heads up next time." Even if Dax hadn't instigated Billy Craft, she had arranged for things to fire up Billy's anger.

Shawn facepalmed hearing them while Aaron discerned two things, Obviously, Aarvi's plan and her brain are on a totally new level than them. Secondly, Shawn and Dax treat her more like a mother. Like kids whining at mother for more of her attention and love. 'She is definitely spoiling them way too much.' He thought and also looked forward to their coming days.

Super Narcissistic Dax spoke, [Of course I know I am smarter than the fool standing next to you. Hmph]

Aarvi spoke before Shawn could start arguing with Dax and they create a huge drama for her to tend to both men, "Dax is Genius and Shawn is intelligent. Alright alright. I will see you on Saturday. Bye."

[Dum…] She hung up exactly knowing what question was coming from him which Shawn asked in front of her, "Bro, Which is better, Genius or intelligent?"

Aaron saw Aarvi who put them in a dilemma to end their childish argument so he pointed to her, "Shrewd, Artful and astute one is better than you two."

Aarvi: "..."

'Why are you pushing me to the bottomless hole?' Aarvi thought looking at Aaron sipping the juice to calm her stomach.

Shawn pointed at the self-obsessed couple and shrugged, "You both are crafty cunning foxes." He snorted and left the park leaving Aarvi speechless.

Aaron knew Shawn just threw his silly tantrum so he turned to see Aarvi who was watching him intently, probably thinking whether he is cunning too. "He is wrong, You are a fox… and I am a wolf."

Taking another sip of juice, Aarvi shook her head, "You are a sexually attractive man so Fox. I am a wolf to devour the fox."

Aaron's brows raised in enchantment and took a step closer but she ran away clearly identifying he was going to prove who is the wolf. 'Tsk, I have a sly fox.' Aaron thought and followed her, stretching his long legs to catch up with her tiny steps of the run.

...

While the couple played, On the other end Mia Craft was afraid to lose her face in the showbiz and released a diplomatic statement, mainly in her favor but it provoked a lot of netizens blaming her negatively for leaving her father in chaos and some cursed her for trying to justify her father's behavior.

[I am unaware of the incident and the truth behind it. Hence I sincerely request my fans and netizens to be polite and stop slandering the innocent.]

Most could guess she was referring to herself as innocent whereas netizens weren't as good as she expected. It started a discussion among the netizens who she was calling innocent. In either way, all were enraged on her. Though her fellow fans still tried to defend her among millions.

"Tsk, People outrageously leave their family in mud to be in fame. :disappointed_emote:"

"How could she try to save her face instead of standing for her father? :Disgusted_emote:"

"Are you calling yourself innocent? Then where are your filial responsibilities? Saving your own ass. :face_with_symbol_over_mouth:"

"Goddess must have faced so much hardship due to such a father."

"The commenter above, open your eyes and see, your goddess is a witch."

"Innocent father? If you were the one to be in those girls' places, you would have understood how it feels. Like father like daughter."

.

.

Mia Craft broke her mobile boiling in frustration. She didn't dare to meet Aeon knowing he will scold her for releasing a statement without consulting the PR department or him.

Even though Amiah entertainment had quickly reacted and removed the post, the damage was already done and the thread went on in other social media profiles.

She quickly left the shooting location without meeting Aeon and went to Harmon companies headquarters to meet Leon Harmon personally to find the solution and to request to handle the things. She doesn't trust Craft company employees or her father anyway.

But there was a flicker of fright by the thought of Leon casting them aside. No, she was ready to listen and do everything Leon asks to save her reputation and to have Aeon.

Was she afraid of losing Aeon? Yes but not exactly. She doesn't love him but his name, his looks, and The Harmon family status. She wanted the wealth and power to show off that she is superior and better. She wanted to earn everyone's respect and urged to see others think hundred times to mess with her.

She wanted to rule over people in her own way. Will she get what she is desiring and craving to have in her life?

---

At headquarters of the Harmon Companies.

She reached when Billy was arguing with the security to let him go upstairs however Dylan had ordered the security to keep the Craft family away and also anyone who will be there to meet Leon. The latter had ruined the whole office room probably the Nth time hearing the failure of each task.

Leon Harmon had an inkling that the three people he is trying to find are actually a single person. Only one was playing him mad, driving him crazy, boiling his blood every day.

He saw his broken mobile ringing on the floor, he went to it and picked it up and smashed it again but failed to break it completely and thanks to durable model phones and the carpet on the floor.

But that riled him up furthermore, his anger changed to furious, furrows between his brows became more obvious, his eyebrows went to lowest overshadowing the tension blazing in his eyes, his snarling lips were stretched up as he gnashed his teeth with a flared mouth.

He grabbed the swivel chair and dragged to the half-broken mobile, 'Crash' he smashed the foot of the chair on the backside of the mobile with all his force. 

Followed by it were eerie stillness and his heavy breathing like a bull that is up for a round of bullfight with a trained matador.

Dylan who creaked open the door saw Leon's state and smirked an evil smirk. As an act of good cousin and assistant he had suggested to Leon Harmon uncountable times to hire a good therapist for the treatment of his anger, of course, he wanted the therapist to change his control-freak attitude too for living little peacefully. 

However, Leon never heard him. If Leon had followed his advice, probably he wouldn't have too many weaknesses and none would be playing him like a puppet attached to the string and dancing on other's commands and wishes.

Dylan wanted to see and meet whoever was bringing the trouble to Leon Harmon. Nope, he didn't want to meet to help Leon, rather it was to help that person to break Leon Harmon's ego and his pride. His aim wasn't to destroy the Harmon family but Leon Harmon.

Dylan had thought he could ruin Leon Harmon staying with him but Leon was too alert and overprotective of his things without believing anyone that left Dylan helpless. But Dylan had far sensitive data that could destroy the whole Harmon family yet he wanted to bring down only Leon Harmon as Sean Harmon was just a witless man. 

In other words or end results, Dylan wanted Aeon Harmon to be the patriarch of the Harmon family and he didn't crave wealth. If the one who is against Leon shares the same views, he was ready to help them at the cost of his head.

Dylan was lost in thought when he saw Mia and her father lurking in through the fire exit of the building panting heavily due to the arduous work of climbing stairs.

'Did they really climb fifty-one floors?' Dylan thought without knowing they had climbed only two floors in the beginning and took the elevator but got caught in the forty-seventh floor by different security and they used the stairs. 

Dylan saw the security staff running behind the duo, the father and daughter ran again and pushed Dylan aside, and barged inside the room without knowing the consequences of entering inside.

Dylan rolled his eyes after putting on an act of stopping them and commanded security staff, "Wait…" then he slowly peeked in after hearing Billy's roar and saw Leon strangling Billy against the glass wall.

'I am really admiring this Mysterious person.' Dylan exclaimed in his thought for letting the jerks fight with each other without dirtying the hands. He waited to see Mia's state after Billy. Or will Leon Harmon kill Billy Craft?
