The Traps of Black Swan

In fact, Aarvi and Dax didn\'t see Aeon in the waiting room. Both were busy hearing Dax\'s assistant informing them about the lunch she had ordered for them. After entering inside her office instead of Dax\'s, they slumped on the couch stretching themself.

"Sweetie, how to hypnotize the employees to listen to me?"

Aarvi punched his arm and checked time. "Let\'s have lunch. Aeon Harmon will be here soon."

Dax sat for lunch with her and hesitantly asked hearing \'Aeon Harmon\', "When are you going to tell us what happened that week?"

Aarvi almost dropped the fork from her trembling fingers remembering her haunting days. It was the past that even if she tries to ignore, she can\'t; if she tries to forget, it haunts her more, "Dax, please..."

Dax stood up and hugged her, gently patting her head, "Shawn already told me how President Rivas found you." If he had known something was going to happen after her wedding dropped, he would have never agreed to leave to a different city on work.

Aarvi gently pushed him away, "Let\'s not talk about it. Otherwise, I will not meet any of you again."

Dax swiftly put on a playful face, "Oh please, I don\'t have any plans to visit the graveyard again or see Shawn pole dancing."

"Eat." Aarvi said and composed herself.

Dax\'s fist tightened remembering whatever Shawn had told him. He couldn\'t even imagine what and all she went through those days. There were many groups like Aarvi\'s grandfather, Aaron, Shawn, Dax\'s men who were trying to know what had happened those days but nothing was fruitful. It was like a plain paper where even Aarvi wasn\'t there. They couldn\'t trace how Aarvi even reached that place.

If it was Leon Harmon, Aaron was enough to destroy him. If it was her ex-fiance, Dax was enough to crumble his business to dirty mud.

But they couldn\'t understand why Aarvi was trying to slowly revenge instead of destroying them. Nobody knew her plan other than Aarvi\'s Apple pie who was ambushed from the past two years.

Dax and Shawn both tried to reach him but it was like he doesn\'t exist in country A.

When Dax thinks back to that week, everyone who supported or stood by Aarvi was out of town, she was all alone in the city and ended up in a brutal situation. If Aaron hadn\'t mobilized all his force and his father hadn\'t requested a military search team, Aarvi would have been found dead.

Dax respected Aaron only for that reason. Everyone knew Aarvi was alive only because of Aaron but Dax and Aarvi think as Aaron did it on Shawn\'s pressure.

...

Aarvi and Dax went to the meeting room where Aeon was present.

"Congratulations President Harmon on meeting both of us. Nobody got this high privilege till the date." Dax mocked him pulling a chair for Aarvi to sit at the head of the table.

Aeon clenched his fist tight digesting the taunt and spoke, "I\'m sorry, I didn\'t know you were President Evans."

Aarvi checked the time and coldly spoke, "You have five minutes to say whatever you want."

Aeon was dumbfounded. He had thought she would continue to mock him and send him out. He blankly stared at her expressionless face, the more he looked at her, he felt more mystic like she has buried a lot of things.

Dax knocked on the table seeing his scrutinizing gaze. "Time is ticking."

Aeon composed, peeling his eye away and spoke hurriedly, "The post by my company wasn\'t by us. Somebody hacked in the network and updated it."

"Proof?"

Aeon responded quicker, "We didn\'t get any proof, else I would have sent them along back."

"And you are thinking we will believe that?" Dax jeered in a sarcastic voice.

"I am not lying. I am sure you know the state of Amiah..."

Dax cut in lazily leaning back with a contemptuous smirk, "Excuse me, we have better things to do."

Aeon never requested anything. As much as he suffered, Dax continued to strike at him again and again making it difficult for him to continue.

"My company stats aren\'t good, why will I dare to offend anybody?"

Dax chuckled provokingly looking at his irritation, "To get our attention on you so that we can invest. Good plan but we are not fools."

Aeon was enraged hearing his assumption when that wasn\'t the actual case, "You-"

Aarvi\'s voice was low but icy cold suppressing his presence between them, "Tone!"

Aeon knew that talking with them wasn\'t going to help him but he couldn\'t understand why he was still sitting there.

Amiah was built by his sweat and blood. It was close to him and he wasn\'t at the stage to lose it. He couldn\'t understand why his life was playing with him so cruelly one after the other. He used to be proud that he worked hard to be present where he was but now it was at the stage to close down everything.

His pride didn\'t allow him to plea them and he would never do that.

"First of all, I don\'t want your investment or attention. This problem really has nothing to do with us and I don\'t have the proof to prove it either. I know my company walked on your coattails these days but the explanation to the media will cause me the damage as much as the legal process would cost. Is it possible to give me some time so that I can manage and pay it?"

Dax thought it was easy dealing with Aeon who surrendered with his explanation and request. He waited for Aarvi to speak and buy his shares and that way Amiah will be hers and Aeon Harmon will be her employee dancing on her tips without the courage to leave his company by disclosing Skylar brought his company.

But is that Aarvi\'s plan? That simple?

Nope!

If she wants, she knows to create her position in Amiah Entertainment but her attack wasn\'t that simple and it wasn\'t her main reason at all. She had a bigger plan to execute. She wants Aeon and Sean to play her game without their knowledge. Sitting on the head seat of Aeon\'s company - Amiah Entertainment wasn\'t a big deal for her considering their current state.

"Where is your \'I\'m Harmon!\' ego when I met you last time? Luck has knocked on your door but you are the one who chased it away."

Aeon slightly frowned trying to maintain his composure. Her beautiful face didn\'t reveal any emotions. The much he tried to read her and understand, she was just too mysterious and complex like a puzzle giving him an urge to solve it.

Aarvi continued, "Am I running a charity for you? Or do I look like your mother to forgive you? President Harmon, This is a business."

She stood up and walked towards the door saying, "Time\'s up."
