In the banquet hall,

When Leon saw Zain, Major Louis, and Gavriel return inside with Aarvi and Aaron, he assumed he hit the bullseyes. Well, he indeed hit the bullseye, without knowing his prey wasn\'t actually his prey but a predator ready to scrape off his face. 

He excused himself from the table of businessmen and dialed a number. "Where are Aaron Rivas and Ava… I mean Aarvi Evans?"

Since Leon didn\'t know he would be invited to the party, he hadn\'t made any arrangements at the hotel to monitor. At the last movement, he was only able to get a room in his name. His men had tried to reserve a room but the hotel staff announced that there were no rooms available. Due to safety reasons, only high-profile persons and the guests of the banquet were getting the room.

Hence Leon\'s men were outside watching the hotel. They reported as much as they noticed from outside, "We saw a lady in white and a few men in the balcony of the fifth floor. The lady was scared after seeing the box and Aaron Rivas hugged her quickly. They had to send the box away before she spoke and went inside." He completed reporting what they witnessed through binoculars. Then continued to inform the rest, "None left the hotel yet but we noticed a man sneaking inside the hotel inconspicuously."

Leon understood the man couldn\'t be his man. He shrugged off the thought, guessing it as a media reporter. It was common for reporters trying to find a way inside to join the banquets and collect the information. 

Leon was anyway leaving after the dinner as his work was completed in frightening the Little Lamb. Assuming she must be crying in a suite somewhere, he was relaxed.

Returning to the table, he was sipping his wine speaking with others as he watched the Rivas family slowly get to know what just happened. He could feel them hiding their bothersome expressions behind their forced fake smiles. It put Leon in a better mood.

However when Leon met Shawn\'s gaze, unknowingly his back stiffened. He noticed Dax and Zain laughing, clinking their glass, shaking their heads at their conversation.

He was yet to comprehend, he felt a strong presence at the door. Not just him, almost everyone turned to the door.

Leon\'s eyes slightly widened when he saw Aarvi walking in. Her steps on her heels were steady and precise with her waist slightly swaying on her slender long legs. Her white floor-length jacket was slow to her speed causing it to spread aside and flutter beside her. She gave off the illusion of a graceful white swan floating on the clear water.

But something was different that gave them a dark, malevolent vibe. When she came inside with Aaron at first, there was little warmth on her face, but it wasn\'t there anymore and one could feel the extreme coldness on her serene face. The corners of her lips weren\'t tilted, they were pressed to a thin line. Her eyes were fierce but not red, those were sharp on a man, dazzling all the lights in her eyes.

When her presence unknowingly brought fear in some people, a few craved for it. The three businessmen who were thinking they had seen Aarvi three years ago at the Kelly celebration party, brushed off their thoughts. They never had met a woman as dominant and oppressive as Aarvi Evans. They were sure it was impossible to forget her if they had really seen her before.

Her mysteriousness was worth their admiration yet there was one to provoke it. 

Aarvi shifted her gaze from Leon when she was passing by the Parkinson family. Charlotte\'s eyes widened meeting Aarvi\'s empty gaze that struck her breath in her throat. The Parkinson family was yet to meet Aarvi personally so none of her family noticed Charlotte\'s reaction.

Leon tried his hardest to think what was going on but her deadlock gaze with him seemed to make him go blank. Instead of thinking about what she was up to or what might have gone wrong, he was admiring her fearless move. 

He inhaled only when her gaze shifted and started thinking. He had guessed Aarvi might not let her actions affect the party but looking at her, he was sure she was going to do something that will hurt his image, yet again.

His eyes laid on the Rivas family members who were smirking. Another reason for his presence was found. The Rivas family was ready to stake everything for Aarvi. The party was nothing in front of it.

The one he had attacked had nothing yet she wasn\'t easier for him to kill. One he was trying to attack had every bloody thing and winning on her was the most difficult. There were many to stand by her and he had no one.

Even the businessmen around him vacated the table when they saw Aarvi was going to Leon. They weren\'t ready to experience the after-effects either.

Leon noticed Aarvi\'s slender fingers slide and hold the red wine flute without stopping even a second. Leon was clueless about how to react despite guessing what she was up to. He can\'t run like an idiot. Upon that, it was hard to decide if Aarvi was really going to throw the wine on him. He didn\'t want to make a fool of himself by reacting if she stands doing nothing.

His dilemma was too strong hence he thought to react after her actions. Under this time, he missed Dylan who could have shielded him.

Aarvi could easily read him and how he was bracing himself to react right after her. She wanted to be swift so that his reaction would come late. Her determination was the same, she didn\'t even make any change in her plan.

When Leon was expecting her to get more close, Aarvi splashed the red wine in a single quick move, saving her white dress from a sprinkle of wine drops.

Leon\'s hand had moved to cover his face but it wasn\'t able to block all the wine. The liquid, rolled down on his handsome face, tracing his neck, it dropped on the collar of his light-colored shirt, staining it slowly and permanently.

None in the hall could believe Aarvi had the guts to throw red wine on Leon\'s face in front of so many eyes, without a hint of fear to offend him.

None noticed a waiter\'s dropped jaws. As soon as he saw Aarvi was going towards Leon, he went closer to get a closer look. Thanks to his exceptional skills, he recorded everything from a good angle. What bugged him the most was the reason behind her actions.

Aarvi\'s lips arced when she saw Leon\'s eyes turned red, glaring at her. She was anticipating him to flip the table on her, hence Alex who was close to them was literally on his toes. 

Leon growled through his teeth, trying his best to suppress his anger and avoid scratching up his image. "President Evans seems to have a problem with your behavior."

\'Problem with my behavior? Oh please.\' Aarvi thought. Just because she was using a bow and arrows to attack from far, doesn\'t mean she can\'t use the sword to slash on his face.

Jordan and the rest pretended to be out of shock and went up to them as though they wanted to solve the issue. Connor was very bad at acting so Jordan took the lead while Shawn was controlling himself from laughing, Megan stood next to Aarvi, holding around her shoulder. Karsen asked for the waiter to help Leon, after all, Leon was a guest, and Rivas were known for their great hospitality.

Leon couldn\'t believe the family had such great artists and amazing coordination without communicating.
