The Traps of Black Swan

Aarvi wanted to play safely in her dangerous game but Aeon Harmon never betrays his friends for the third person. He grounded his teeth and slammed his hands on the table loathing her confidence, "Who the f**k do you think you are? You might be President in your office, not here. Get out."

Aarvi smirked indifferently but she hates how frequently he uses f words to shut her. Even though her smile was enticing, Aeon just couldn't read what was going on in her head.

She didn't care what he said, "Two choices! Fire him or I will pull you down both. I don't think you would like to see Amiah Entertainment in other's hands." The right pressure to tame him even though he was fuming. Aria knew well to press his nerves at the perfect time.

Seeing him glaring, Aarvi ignored him as if he didn't matter to her. She placed an envelope in front of him, "Do or die." Simple as that.

He sounded furious, "You-" Aeon pointed his finger at her but her faint smile and raised brows anticipating for him to continue were enough to shut his lips. His voice toned down unknowingly while saying, "I will never play by your terms."

She patiently took her mobile saying, "Alright, I will dump you from your company."

She patiently swiped on contact named Apple Pie and put it on speaker purposefully.

[Pumpkin, any problem at Amiah?]

Aarvi straight asked, "How long will it take for us to buy the max shares except Aeon Harmon's?"

Aeon and Aarvi both heard Zain snicker, [Is that loser acting high and mighty?...]

Aeon clenched his fist hearing the other end calling him a loser. He so wished to knock her on the table and pull the other man out and teach him a lesson.

"... Pumpkin, it isn't like you lack money and 'Money talks'. Say yes, you will get the company share papers in three hours maximum. The paperwork can be done later."

Aarvi who was watching Aeon saw his eyes widened. Seeing them talking about millions worth shares as a piece of toy infuriated him and he hung up the call thinking she will say yes and he will forever lose his company.

To become a lead shareholder, he needs money and he doesn't have it. So if he is the president, he could earn and have his company too. "I need a valid reason to fire him."

"Aeon Harmon, don't you dare touch my things without my permission. This is the last warning. Know your goddam limits."

Aeon spat back instantly, "You are the one sitting in my office without my permission. How dare you warn me?"

Pea Brained man! Aarvi stood up to leave without a word but her beautiful smile dangerously alarmed him

Aeon didn't want to accept but he knew Skylar is perfect for his company. It was just he couldn't stand her. It irritates him to accept that he feels inferior in front of her and her mysterious smiles always distract him. "Fine. I will listen to you."

She felt it's too much drama with Aeon. She pointed to the envelope, "Sign and prove."

Having no choice, Aeon signed the papers and left his friend to save the company. He had to go out after hearing her, "Jayce..."

Jayce stood up and asked frantically, "Who is the new shareholder? Why is he having bodyguards? What is going on?"

"You are fired. Pack your things, collect the remaining payment from the finance department, and leave."

Jayce wasn't sure how to describe his feeling when his overflowing benefits were vanishing just like that. His life of luxury depends on being around Aeon. If he loses his place, Leon would toss him away like a piece of muck.

His overwhelming insecurity spoke, "No, what are you saying? How could you fire me? I was the one who stayed by you all the time, how could you do this to me? Aeon, tell me what is going on. Is that new shareholder doing this?"

Aeon followed Aarvi's order with a frown, "Stayed with me? Are you sure you stayed with me for me? Jayce Porter, how dare you still lie to me?"

Jayce stumbled back hearing him, cold sweat started trickling down on Jayce's face looking at Aeon. He gulped a few times trying to be in composure. He wanted to lie to stay safe from Aeon.

Aeon had thought Aarvi was a nuisance when she said Jayce Porter isn't his friend instead Jayce is just toying with him. Aeon wanted to prove to her that there was nothing but seeing Jayce's reaction and seeing him taking steps back looking frightened, Aeon believed Aarvi without another word.

Aeon grabbed Jayce's collar and roared, "Are you going to tell me or not?"

Jayce was scared and started trembling by remembering how Aeon had beaten Leon. He couldn't afford to get to Aeon's hand. He didn't know how Aeon got to know everything. He feared what if Aeon got to know that after Leon, he had assaulted Amiah too.

In fright, he blamed everything on Leon, "It was your brother. He indoctrinated me to work for him to keep an eye on you. I wasn't doing anything other than telling him about you. I swear, I didn't do anything to Amie. I swear..."

Aeon left his collar in disbelief. He had just thought Jayce was trying to help him by taking Leon's name but never as he was doing it for Leon.

As soon as Aeon left Jayce, the latter ran away without looking back.

Aeon had thought he was controlling his own life but got to know why his life was smooth.

Aarvi who waited inside for ten minutes went out and saw Aeon lost in thought mockingly laughing at himself. Aarvi somehow felt like he was suffering deeply and couldn't be able to collect this time due to the reopening of old wounds with the new wounds but she shook off the thoughts.

Her cold tone echoed, "I don't have a whole day's time. Get your ass in the office."

Aeon composed himself and went inside. Aarvi was professional when it's about work. She pointed to the chair for him as she spoke. "Nobody should know I'm the lead shareholder. You are answerable to me but to the world, you are the owner..."

Aeon was surprised and quickly checked the contract paper. 'Aarvi Evans'. He realized shares weren't brought by Skylar but herself.

She checked the time after explaining everything and saw a man in the late twenties knock on the door and enter inside. Aarvi didn't care about the introduction or greetings.

"President Harmon, he will be your assistant from today. He has a list of employees who need to be replaced. There will be a few infrastructural changes that will be taken care of by him. He is more experienced and well versed than you so you could also ask for opinions and suggestions."

Aeon spoke right after him, "Presi..."

She cut it coldly, "Miss. Evans... When I said nobody, I meant no one."

Aeon flared up irked by her control, "I'm not going to be your slave."

Aarvi stood up taking the signed contract papers, "You have no choice." She smiled leaving him powerless and fume clenching his fist.

Her plan to control Amiah Entertainment - Checked.

Controlling Aeon - She will do that soon.

Aeon saw her gracefully walking out. 'I will never let you control my new movie.' As soon as his new movie airs, he wants to buy some more shares and get out of her clutch.
