BXBX NOVEL Chapter 330 - His Innocence At Stake
Aarvi was going towards another side to alight the stairs when she saw Aeon leaning on the door and… waiting for her.
It was obvious that he was obscurely keeping an eye on her due to his many unanswered questions.
Aarvi checked the time and there were only two minutes according to her plan. She had set time because Sara Dawson and Sean Harmon will enter the hall extravagantly in ten minutes.
Before that she wants to leave Leon like a carnivorous animal who craves blood, an animal that has no sense of thinking, an animal who is aggressive, that is too hyperactive.
All in all, she wants to bring out the real color of Leon to everyone. Yet, he has to control himself because things will already be out of hand for him to stop the party or leave the party.
He will be a man who is going to have no control over himself much less on others.
Looking at Aeon, hesitant to say or ask anything gazing at her, Aarvi could say he had deduced to some extent, since she paused there, she took a few steps inside to avoid President Dawson\'s eyes on her.
"Ask me a question. I will respond." She blandly said leaning on the backside of the couch.
Aeon perceived \'A question\' but he had many. He had analyzed that Aarvi was at the brink of death due to Leon and his allies. She met him for a reason, she wears all black so Sean\'s \'Beauty in Black\' is Aarvi. And so on, he had deduced probably many things.
He wanted to know if her avenge includes him and Sean too but as far as he understood her, she had tried to correct Sean and helped him from falling into Leon\'s hands so it ruled out.
He clenched his fist to avoid asking the question that was at the tip of his tongue, \'How did you survive the ordeal?\' Even just remembering the scene of her lying on the ground made his heart freeze and ache terribly.
But he didn\'t ask. Instead, he requested, "I want to help you take down Leon Harmon."
When he wanted Leon to face the law with the photographs of him sexually abusing Amiah, he failed due to a lack of evidence and proof. He failed to prove those pictures as real so he knew punishing Leon isn\'t as easy as it looks.
Aarvi was slightly surprised hearing him. She expected him to ask her in extreme anger how she could use him to avenge Leon or ask if she troubled him in the beginning because he left her in the warehouse. But he was totally unpredictable.
A smile bloomed on her face and she silently sighed. A brother wants his own elder brother to get severly punished. She really appreciated that Aeon gave more importance to humanity and love instead of the blood relation.
Seeing his anticipating gaze, Aarvi stood in front of him and said in her mellow and firm voice, "Then help me by becoming strong. So powerful that if one day, you get the responsibility of thousands of employees, you should be brave and guide them through tough times by shining bright."
Looking her in the eye, he knew her determination to destroy Leon Harmon from the roots. Hearing it wasn\'t related to the Harmon family or hurting the innocent employees of Harmon Industries, he felt his heart skip a beat.
He didn\'t swoon at her beauty but the way she was dealing with the problem without actually using him as dice in her game really touched his heart.
He offered his help, he really expected her to use him to get information to use against Leon. But the help she asked wasn\'t helping but a path for him to walk.
The arrogance she always showed everyone appeared like the protective layer she was using for her own safety. A faint smile appeared on his handsome face thinking she might be like all girls too, soft and friendly which she masks well.
When she could be strong to face the dirty scumbags, why can\'t he be strong? Aeon nodded, "I will try my best to never disappoint you."
Aarvi merely nodded. If he is strong, it was useful for him and his family instead of her. She hoped he could be one.
She was leaving when she paused and gave heads up, "If Sean is into any legal things, I won\'t save him." Then she walked out while Aeon was saying, "I will take care of him."
Aeon knew Sean was like a white canvas. He is spoiled rotten by Leon purposefully. Sean loved nobody but himself. He could only hope he can save Sean from losing himself in Leon\'s world.
Aeon heard the yelling of a man from the room that was two rooms away from his room. A part of his mind wanted to check out and another part of his mind wanted to see what Aarvi was going to do.
He chose the latter one and stood in the lobby facing the huge hall imagining what President Dawson was going to do to a young man.
A minute before, President Dawson saw a room door closing and assumed Ava Kelly entered so he shouted, "Don\'t you dare lock the door."
He ran towards the room without knowing his wife was running behind him. He pushed open the door and saw Ava Kelly huddled under the duvet. He locked the door hysterically laughing in triumph.
Max who was under the duvet was speechless. He and the Shadow team had recently recovered after watching a man abusing a man in the shipyard warehouse, President Dawson\'s ugly laughter reminded it to many.
Outside the door, Madam Dawson tried to unlock and push the door but failed. She breathed heavily understanding her husband locked the door. Thinking how long her husband might have had an affair, she dialed the manager of the event organizer.
Inside the room, President Dawson saw the slender finger on the bed and continued to mockingly chuckle, "Do you think I will be scared thinking you are a ghost?"
\'If you dare touch me, I will break your face.\' Max thought, rolling his eyes under the duvet.
President Dawson removed his blazer and threw it on the couch as he continued to speak, "I had missed the chance last time." He checked the time on his wristwatch and uttered lustily, "Let\'s finish one round in 10 minutes. Then I will lock you in a room and decide what to do with you."
Max: "..."
[He only lasts for ten minutes and he has an affair. What am I doing with my life?]
[Max, enjoy your ten minutes with an old man.]
{Peal of laughter.}
Aarvi who was talking with Aeon hadn\'t focused on their words.
Max, who had understood Aarvi\'s plan, knew he should wait until Madam Dawson could enter the room. Slowly a cold sweat dripped from his forehead cursing President Dawson for locking the door.
While he was cursing, he felt movements on the bed before President Dawson tried to get rid of the duvet, "You can\'t win on me. Let go of it." He commanded.
Max held it tighter than ever as he nonstop cursed the man in mind.
"You bitch, you don\'t learn in an easy way. Do you?" President Dawson hissed and leaped on the slender figure thinking Max as Ava Kelly, a sexy lady.
Max: "..."
Max felt like his innocence at stake. If not tossing him away, he wanted to shriek in disgust when President Dawson rubbed his hips circularly on Max\'s body.
