Chapter 737 - A Small Puzzle



James could have ignored the couple. He went to Aarvi because he wanted to see how she reacts in critical situations. His heedful eyes caught her jaws tighten but her face stayed so calm that he couldn\'t judge her. He found her hard to deal with.

Yet he snickered to provoke them and turned his heels without responding to her question. After speaking with Leon, James understood it was a long grudge and she was planning Leon\'s downfall for two years. So the lawyer couldn\'t be somebody unknown who might leak her secret. So he doubted he might be Nikun and placed the puzzles. He didn\'t invite Nikun yesterday to know about Aarvi, but to trick him into his plan.

James\'s eyes met Aaron\'s dark gaze and lost his tracks. A kind of fear clutched his throat. He failed to shift his gaze away and tripped himself.

His apprentices and assistants ran over while James held the wall to balance himself. Only then did he realize his heart was pounding. He glanced back again and saw Aarvi still calm. Shaking off his thoughts, he went inside the courtroom. 

Nikun\'s assistants weren\'t confident to handle themselves and they hardly knew anything about the case. Yet, they started discussing how to handle the situation.

Shawn looked at calm Aarvi and cold Aaron. "How could you guys wait? We have no time to arrange for a different lawyer."

Aarvi glanced at him and her eyes moved towards the gate, "He will come."

"How are you so sure?" Shawn couldn\'t help from asking.

Aaron glanced at her and responded to Shawn, "Alex went to pick Nikun," If there was any trouble, he would have notified them immediately. Whatever James might try to do, he couldn\'t attack Nikun with people.

"Then call Alex." Shawn fetched his mobile to make sure they were fine.

He was yet to click on the call, he heard Milo Wen\'s voice, "They came."

Not just four, the whole media\'s attention shifted to the rows of cars making way towards the entrance of the court.

Everyone: "..."

Parade? Even Aarvi was speechless looking at the procession of cars for Nikun\'s entry. 

"Ronron, don\'t you think this is a little overboard?"

This wasn\'t Nikun\'s style. Aaron carefully watched and pinched his nose bridge. Nikun got off the car and hurried towards them as there were less than five minutes. Aarvi saw many men in suits following him.

"Did Brother Jaxon send his lawyers?" Those men were foreigners.

It didn\'t need an answer and four of them were sure it was Jaxon aka the Evans family act. Suddenly she felt tired, \'This is too much.\'

Nikun didn\'t seem to be tense. He was in a hurry and there was a wicked playful smile on his face. That was rare to see on Nikun\'s face for others excluding his team. His team members breathed in relief, it wasn\'t that they couldn\'t handle the case, the case was high profile and they didn\'t feel worthy enough to handle it.

Nikun reached them looking at the calm Aarvi. He apologized instead of being angry for the full team behind him. "I am sorry for being late. Let\'s get inside first." He paused, "You guys speak, I need to deal with somebody." He patted Aaron\'s arm hurried inside.

The four knew who that somebody was. They didn\'t have the chance to say anything when they saw him entering inside. One among eight foreign international lawyers introduced himself, "President Evans, I am Driss Carlos. Mr. Evans has instructed us to assist Mr. Morris."

Aarvi: "..."

Aarvi looked at the row of people and insisted, "How about one among you assist Nikun? I would prefer not to waste your time."

Driss Carlos was a man in his mid-thirties. He was tall, stern, and emotionless. Aarvi felt him like a robot, like Aaron in the past who never revealed any emotions.

Driss lowered his head in a bow of respect with others, "It\'s our honor to serve you, President Evans." He knew her as the daughter of the Evans family and he was the one who handled her adoptive forms.

He had expected her to be haughty but she turned out stark against what they had expected. Well, it increased their respect. He took a step back and continued, "If you could excuse me, I need to vacate the unnecessary people from the courtroom."

Aarvi: "..."

Shawn and Aarvi were in the same state with an expression saying, \'This is too flashy.\'

Although Aaron chose the Evans family, he least wanted to associate her with the family. He turned to shocked Milo. The latter nodded vigorously, "Yes, Preside… Young Master, I will make sure no news about the lawyers\' leaks. If it does, it will be rewritten as Young Madam hired them." He left quickly to handle the situation.

Aaron guided her towards the courtroom, "We should speak with Jaxon." Otherwise, those lawyers wouldn\'t leave.

Aarvi hummed, pressing her head. She has to know what James did to Nikun and deal with him And also avoid James assuming he was great to have so many opposition lawyers.

She needs to talk with Nikun and clear if there was any misunderstanding due to the team of Lawyers sent by Jaxon.

Aaron stopped Aarvi before going inside. He removed her hand from her forehead, "Don\'t stress out. Cupcake." Aarvi could only nod because she couldn\'t stop her mind from thinking.

Shawn went inside when Aaron hugged her to calm her down. That\'s when Aarvi\'s eyes fell on Nikun who was smirking at James, disregarding that James was his mentor. 

Her headache suddenly drifted awat and her lips arced. "Looks like, Brother Nick took my words into consideration."

Play his game, don\'t get played.

James assumed he had control over Nikun but the latter was shrewd and let him assume. 

Aaron shifted his eyes to his wife\'s face. Seeing her relaxed and serene, he breathed in relief. She held his hand and took him inside, curious about what Nikun was telling James.

Nikun shoved the mobile into his pocket and warned James, "Master, let\'s fight like lawyers. If not, you will regret your actions for the rest of your life." He returned to his seat next to Aarvi.

"What did he do to you?"

"What will you do?"

"I will ruin his career."

Nikun smiled helplessly at how defensive she was. "Let me make him proud."

A sly smirk appeared on her face. James will have to lose, yet he will be congratulated for having an able apprentice. When her eyes shifted from Nikun, she caught the sight of Leon.

Leon gritted his teeth, slowly he solved another small puzzle. He discerned why Aaron was at his mansion to warn him when he helped Wade Merton to kidnap Shea Morris. 

Shouldn\'t Nikun Morris be the one there?

Aaron and Aarvi were hiding Nikun Morris. Leon never laid his eyes on Nikun. He didn\'t know Nikun was an internationally licensed lawyer and an apprentice of James Crawford.

Looking at the reaction of James Crawford, Leon\'s confidence started to waver.. Anyway, he got a little hope when he saw Dylan silently entering inside with a person who could help them change the direction of the case.
