The Traps of Black Swan

Chapter 574 - Waiting For Help Is Stupidity



Jaxon had thought Aarvi needed his help and heard her attentively for the whole fifteen minutes. He was astonished, then his stupefaction slowly turned to shock and left him wondering. 

Aaron had paused his work and carefully heard her plan. He had the urge to put his wife\'s brain in a museum, his wife\'s brain is a wonder on earth. Then he changed his mind, he wanted her wholly for himself.

"Cupcake, when did you plan this?" Aaron asked, letting Jaxon think as it wasn\'t a small plan Aarvi designed.

Aarvi was prompt as she pointed at the laptop screen, "When I was checking the file Brother Jaxon sent me." 

She had thought for a long time to devise her last plan against Leon. She knew the effects of it so to avoid the after-effects hurting the innocent people\'s livelihood, she needs to step up wisely.

Aaron nodded proudly at his wife, "After all these, let\'s take a long break." He needs to rest her little brain from exhausting her more.

Jaxon interjected quickly, "Hey hey hey, don\'t start planning your honeymoon while I am right here."

Aaron ignored Jaxon and saw Aarvi rattle her head. He got back to work while Jaxon asked Aarvi, "Twy… Aarvi, you are aware this is too large to be carried out in a week."

Aarvi calculated the days of her plan before correcting him, "11 days to be precise." She also meant, \'You can do it if you are willing.\'

Jaxon: "..."

Aarvi watched Jaxon rigorously tap his forefinger on the desk. She knew Jaxon wasn\'t Dax who could make her plan succeed after her well-planned reports. And Jaxon needs to consider the large corporation, unlike Skylar which was nothing in front of Evans. 

In Skylar, she was the major shareholder, Dax had the whole independence but they had no restriction on their innovative and creative ideas, unlike Evans who has hundreds of shareholders and a large board of directories to convince.

Thinking of such a large conglomerate, Aarvi didn\'t like to grow her business that enormous. Those meetings, constant media attention, flattering people… So much headache. 

Of course, she had an exception, Dax Grant.

Jaxon narrowed his eyes and asked, "Why aren\'t you fusing this plan for Skylar?"

"You are gigantic, I am a cute little kitten." She lifted her paw, acted cute which was for Aaron who lifted his head at the right time.

Aaron: "..."

Jaxon: \'You are also a narcissist.\'

"Why not your husband\'s company?"

Aarvi snorted, "We are already delaying our honeymoon, you want to permanently shut it down. Hmph." She crossed her arms and looked away.

Jaxon: "..."

Aaron leaned back on his leather and reframed the same question, "Why not Rivas Industries?" He already knew the response, so he let her speak for Jaxon who was on the verge of going insane at the turn of Aarvi Evans to his mischief Cupcake.

"Oh!!!! Because their hands are already full with Golden oil and gas acquisition." Aarvi seriously responded looking at her husband getting serious.

Jaxon realized he had framed the question as husband\'s company hence she spoke of her husband. After setting the two basic questions, his actual question came up, "You could have jointly cooperated with a company and handled this project. As a successful businesswoman, why are you letting go of such a huge opportunity?" He indirectly invited her to join hands with Evans.

Aarvi liked how he wasn\'t blindly going for the plan or turned down. When it\'s a business, it should be a pure business. Aarvi answered promptly, "One, collaboration takes months and years but there are only eleven days. Two, I don\'t like being monitored or working with anybody else. Three, I can\'t risk the steady improvement of Skylar for an exciting opportunity. Four, I don\'t think I am capable enough to handle such a massive project, yet."

Well, Jaxon appreciated her thorough analysis but he didn\'t agree with the fourth condition. She was daring enough to come with a plan, there could be no better person than her to handle the project.

He got down to the main business, "What are you expecting in return?"

From the beginning, he could feel she wanted something and she wasn\'t ready to ask for it for free so she gave him hundreds of billions worth of plans to his hand.

Aaron watched her face go blank to her serene smile. Suddenly a person flashed in his mind, \'The Fourteenth person,\' the last person in the hit list of Aarvi.

Aaron was accurate. Aarvi gave the plan to acquire billions worth world\'s second-largest import and export company plan to Evans company mainly because of handling that fourteenth person. 

She also wanted to repay them for giving her their second name, she can\'t be their daughter and give them her love when she already has the Rivas family. So she was helping them with a little achievement.

"I need a favor." Aarvi voiced. "Probably a word from you or your presence when I request it." She didn\'t want their money or resources, just the smallest help they could probably do for her.

On the screen, Aaron and Jaxon looked at each other at the mystery she created. They wanted to ask her, anyhow they were aware she wasn\'t going to tell them now. 

Then when?

Aaron swallowed the question from the tip of his tongue. \'Who is he?\' He had forgotten there was another person left on her list.  If that\'s something Jaxon could do but not him, Aaron started thinking if that man was some international criminal.

Jaxon didn\'t mindlessly accept it. He was clever to draw a line, "The Evans family will be there for you to our maximum limit."

Aarvi chuckled, \'maximum limit.\' Whatever she was going to ask them was the tiniest fraction. That included nothing wrong or hard.

Jaxon and Aaron could feel by her light chuckle, they were getting serious over nothing.

So Jaxon tried to make her understand, "Taking help is no crime."

Aarvi countered with her experience, "Waiting for help is stupidity." She won\'t wait but prepare everything in prior.

Jaxon knew Aarvi was stubborn. He didn\'t blame her, rather he admired her strong personality.

He leaned back on the chair, breathed a long sigh realizing the workload he was going to have. He had thought he could roam and enjoy his vacation. He hadn\'t expected he could get busier than before and he will have to forget about the vacation for a few months.

"Alright then, I will fly off tonight and be in touch with you." He directed that at Aarvi who nodded, then he addressed both, "You guys better come and meet Mom and Dad, they wanted me to bring you two along."

Aaron responded, glancing at Aarvi nod, "I will bring my wife as soon as we will be free."

Jaxon hung up after a few minutes and Aarvi let out a long sigh, laying her head on the desk, "Why am I so exhausted? I need lots of oxytocin." She asked for a hug.

Why exhausted? Digesting her overall plan made him and Jaxon drained, how couldn\'t she not?

Aaron saw her eyelids drooping so he warned, "Don\'t sleep there, Cupcake." Meanwhile, he cued Milo Wen to wrap his work.

Sitting straight, Aarvi nodded, "I have some company files to check. I will wait for you to complete work and pick us."

Aaron nodded and ended the call. Nevertheless, he was at the cafe in thirty minutes. Aarvi who washed her face and exited the restroom was surprised that he went to give her the hug she asked for.

She happily skipped to his arms to charge her battery, "I didn\'t know giving me oxytocin was so important." She teased.

Aaron pretended to be disappointed, ignoring the eyes on them in the cafe, "What to do!? My wife is a dummy. She asks me nothing."

"Interesting!" Aarvi exclaimed and tugged him closer, "Think it out, President Rivas. I might put up some unreasonable wishes."

If somebody could blindly grant her wishes, it was only him.
