The Traps of Black Swan

Chapter 715 - The Shadow Team

Emma stood at the door with a Pendrive in her hand. Aarvi noticed her and spoke to the Elder, "I will take my leave, Chairman Harmon. Call me if you need me for anything." She sounded more like a business partner.

Elder Harmon took a good look at her because he wasn't going back to the Rivas mansion and he didn't know when again he would get to see her. "Don't forget the old man." He humored.

Even though Elder Harmon didn't show his emotions, Leon was still a grandson who had played with him. Aarvi didn't want to make him sadder. So she responded politely, "Let everything settle, I will bring everyone for dinner." She invited herself and her family to the Harmon mansion to cheer him on.

"That would be great." Elder Harmon blurted out in excitement before composing himself. He had almost thought she would handle Leon and leave them behind as they were no friends or family.

She faintly smiled at him and nodded at Aeon. She also nodded at shareholders who still feared her. She went to the door where Emma was standing.

Emma walked with Aarvi holding the Pendrive. She meticulously handed the Pendrive to Alex, "President Evans, it has the footage."

"Thank you, Emma." Aarvi thanked as they walked towards the elevator, "Could you please assist the new president with his work? He might need some time to cope up." She insisted in a low gentle voice.

Emma looked at Aarvi and lowered her head. She only helped Aarvi twice, Once she helped Aarvi work in Harmon Industries for three months as an employee. Then, it's today. So she hoped to work with her for the past two years. She hesitantly voiced, "I thought... I will get to work with you."

Aarvi resignedly smiled. If she wasn't going to country S, Emma would have served her as an assistant after helping out Aeon for a month or two. There were changes in her plans, "I am leaving the country…"

Emma was quick to react. Her eyes widened, brows tightened, lifting her head and turning to face Aarvi. She was worried about Aarvi.

The latter continued shaking her head at her quick reaction, "... for a minimum of three years. So will you still wait for me?" She asked, like teasing a little sister.

Emma didn't think twice. She rattled her head making Aarvi smile naturally. In the coming three years, many things could happen without our control. Aarvi wouldn't mind having this selfless girl around her if things were the same. She would also accept if she finds a better workplace or doesn't work at all.

"Alright then…" Aarvi was entering the elevator but paused, "Yeah, ask your brother to focus on studies instead of part-time jobs." When Aarvi met Emma after waking up from the coma, her mother was hospitalized and her brother was doing random jobs after 12th to balance the income. Aarvi took care of his studies abroad, Emma's job, and her mother's surgery expenses. Hence the girl was willing to follow her everywhere at the stake of her life.

Emma furrowed. She didn't know her younger brother was doing many part-time jobs. She knew he was doing it for savings, so she got a little angry thinking he didn't listen to her again. She didn't show it to Aarvi but the latter saw every small change in two seconds

"I will wait for you, President Evans" Emma was determined to work alongside Aarvi.

Aarvi hesitated before reaching out and removing the glasses from Emma's face, "You don't have to hide anymore." To avoid Leon's lecherous gaze, Emma was pretending to be out of shape and nerd. Whereas she was a cute girl with beautiful dimples on her chubby cheeks.

Emma giggled and agreed she wouldn't dress like that anymore. She took her glasses from Aarvi and heard her utter while the elevator door was closing, "Get a cute boyfriend soon." Emma flushed but didn't respond.

Once her focus came back to her work, Emma understood why Aarvi had asked over years to keep a note of who could be trusted and who should be fired. 'It was for Aeon Harmon… Oops, President Harmon.' She thought and ran towards the meeting room.

Aeon also realized why he had a highly qualified assistant chosen by Aarvi when she acquired Amiah Entertainment. Now with a personal secretary and an assistant, his new battle had started. Even though Aarvi gave a clear road with Cornbell's location, he still had a lot more steps to be successful and adorned the throne of Harmon Industries.

At the Police station,

Aarvi let Aaron know she had to go to the police station and then she would meet him at the hospital. The media had swarmed the Harmon Industries and the police station. With the five Shadow team around her, she uttered nothing and went inside the station with a hat on her head and glasses on her nose bridge.

She didn't need media attention on her appearance or what she had to say. The media and public will anyway see how she destroys Leon. After that they wouldn't dare to rush up to her, shove their mics at her face but stand away and ask permission first.

Entering inside, Alex accompanied her while the four stayed in the waiting room. The four's jaws dropped and their eyes caught Aaron entering the station through the secret door. He was so cold that none dared to stop him. Roach followed closely and Milo Wen hurriedly ran behind him a few steps away.

Curious, they took a peek and saw Aaron didn't go to meet Aarvi. Instead, an officer took him towards the interrogation room. Max mumbled, "Leon Harmon asked for it."

The tallest one hissed and commented, "I wanted to break Leon Harmon's ego."

The man who had a mole on his jaw shook his head, "I want him to make him kneel and kowtow Young Madam in front of media."

"Stop daydreaming." The man with stern gaze uttered sitting on the chair. The three looked at him and heard, "Captain Roach is resolute on following Young Madam and Young master. When they return, Shawn sir will choose younger and stronger ones for Young Madam."

Then the four Shadow team started to argue as they will still be the strongest and young after three years.

In the interrogation room,

Aaron folded his short sleeves entering the room. The camera and microphone were turned off. Leon was handcuffed while being questioned. Leon saw Aaron and swallowed hard looking at his eyes colder than the iceberg. His actions meant why he wasn't there for a few words.

When an officer unlocked his handcuff, Leon shouted, "Torturing while interrogation is a crime. I will demand justice." He hoped people outside could hear him.

Aaron snickered and cleanly folded his other sleeves.

The officer looked back. He was helpless, he had orders from higher authority to Aaron meet Leon. He simply responded to Leon, "Hurting in self-defense isn't a crime, Leon Harmon." He pretended to hit his hand on the table and faked his screams of pain, "Ahhh Ahhh…"

Aaron: "..."

Leon pointed his finger at Aaron, "Did you buy him?" Any wrong action in there could be used against him so Leon didn't want to fall into a deeper mess.

The officer rolled his eyes, "I guess you forgot you threatened me by sending thugs to my house." He left without another word, hoping Aaron could thrash the man.

Leon's eyes widened. He started to have an intuition that the officers who were taking his case were the ones he suppressed in the past years. They all will want him dead.

"I see…" Aaron trailed, catching Leon's attention, "Leon Harmon, you have enemies everywhere." He sneered. He hadn't planned to visit Leon Harmon.. But after hearing Leon dared to attack Aarvi and grab her by the hair, he needed to personally see off Leon.
