The officers looked at each other. Even though whatever Elder Harmon said was a theory if the snake had attacked Leon, they truly felt Elder Harmon wanted Leon to die with a snake bite.

All heard Elder Harmon sigh in disappointment, "It is only tortuous for half an hour." He looked at Major General and asked, "Major, is there a viper whose venom could torture a man for days?"

Everyone: "..."

Major General glanced at Leon and looked back at the old man. Even though he didn't understand completely, he was able to grasp that Leon offended the right one who is the wrong one for Leon.

Since Elder Harmon wanted to play along, he shared his knowledge about the snake. "Elder Harmon, I think you would love to know what I am going to share with you."His stern voice was respectful. "There is a snake called Inland Taipan. It is quite a shy and reclusive snake with a placid disposition. And it prefers to escape from trouble."

After hearing his grandfather name Aaron Rivas as King Cobra, the initial behavior of the Inland Taipan reminded Ava Kelly to Leon. 

Yes, she also tried to escape him, the trouble in the beginning.

Major General continued carefully noting the changing emotions in Leon's eyes, "Don't underestimate it just because it tries to escape." 

The air in the room gradually dropped to zero. While the officers instinctively looked at Leon, the old man and major smirked. They understood Leon was in deep trouble.

To add more fuel to the fire, Major General continued about the snake, "It will defend and strike if it's provoked, mishandled, or prevented from escaping."

For every characteristic of the Inland Taipan, Leon recalled his encounters with Ava Kelly and her attack on him. 

Others felt like crows flying over their heads without understanding why they were talking about the snakes.

The darkening face of Leon entertained the major, "They are named as the deadliest and extremely venomous snake in the world. They are extremely fast and agile."

Leon felt like Major was talking about Ava Kelly in the name of Inland Snake. He hated to accept Ava Kelly was indeed fast and agile however he might try to attack her.

Major General continued without a pause or taking his eyes away from Leon, "Their single strike is equal to multiple attacks."

His brows raised looking at Leon's breathing pattern change, knuckles pale in his tight fists. "They are also called fierce snakes. it's not the temperament. it's the venom,"

'Bang.'

Leon had hit the brand new vase that was on the side table. He was about to warn them, Elder Harmon gasped and looked at Major with wide eyes, "See, I told you. Leon fears."

'Fear,' It had haunted Leon the whole night.

Looking back at Leon, Elder Harmon pretended to be concerned, "It's alright my dear grandson, you are safe in here. Be careful when you step out."

It further irritated Leon.

"But Elder Harmon, the snakes can enter the house too and cause havoc." Major General was having fun looking at Leon fume as he was sure he won't be able to ground Leon Harmon again.

'Pfft'

The major general was able to keep his face straight but Elder Harmon couldn't and laughed.

Leon hissed looking at Charlotte, "Is this what you called without wasting my time?" He meant it was unnecessary to talk about the snakes.

Charlotte could only look at her chief. Major General wasn't like this, he was highly focused and didn't give a damn about the other things. 

Major general crossed his legs leaning back on the couch. "President Harmon." He paused, loathing to address him that way, "Mr. Harmon, we just made you aware about the snake which came last night. So what did you do to the snake? I am sure it left the house after fearing you."

Leon's blood was bubbling like lava especially after glancing at his grandfather. 

Then Charlotte interrogated Leon and the man had a response to everything. Leon didn't identify the men from the pictures, he reasoned as he is a famous personality so the rouges must have taken his name or somebody might be targeting him. 

The mobile number those thugs were contacting as Boss was unreachable as the sim was broken down and it was bought in the name of a beggar on the streets.

Just like every time, Major General had to leave the Harmon mansion without any fruitful result as Elder Harmon never saw those men.

Anyway, this time he had a great piece of news for Leon. He paused before exiting the living hall. He turned back to Leon who was glaring at his grandfather. He doubted why Leon had left his grandfather alive. 

Leon looked at Major General and the latter spoke, "Leon Harmon, don't be ecstatic that you saved your ass… Again."

He had got the news that there was another team that was disbanding Leon's team from attacking a military officer. But which officer? They didn't know. Which was the other team? They couldn't trace. 

"You won't be spared." He snickered, "Time to start your countdown." He left hoping to see Leon fall on his knees.

.....

Charlotte asked the major general once he went out of the mansion, "Major General Louis, you seem like you expected this outcome."

The man glanced at Charlotte Parkinson who had a big scowl due to Leon's well-prepared responses. "What is your opinion about Leon Harmon? Charlotte."

Charlotte took the passenger seats of the military car with Major as she responded, "I think, either he is extremely clean targeted by unscrupulous people repeatedly or he is too smart to hide his sh*t clean."

The Major laughed scornfully hearing Leon as clean. Charlotte is too direct and she tries to see two sides of the coins. She doesn't believe her intuition until she finds the right proof.

But he knows, there is no smoke without fire.

...

Inside the Harmon mansion, Elder Harmon rolled his eyes when Leon glared at him for making a scene. 

"I wish I could meet the Inland Taipan who made you lose your cool." He was wishful because he wasn't allowed to meet anybody as Leon kept an eye on him for twenty-four hours, all seven days a week. 

Elder Harmon didn't know his wish would be fulfilled one day.

Instead of running away from the murderous gaze of Leon, Elder Harmon went closer to Leon, "I have a small piece of advice for you."

He left the weight on the cane as he bent, pretending to get closer, "When you see the Inland Taipan stand, facing you, warning you. You better step away. Run, run as far as you can. Because if it makes the mind to attack you, you will beg on the streets to save yourself."

Leon erupted like a volcano burning in rage. He grabbed Elder Harmon's neck and squeezed. The butler was flustered but lowered his head and waited. Either he will escort the old master to his room or to the hospital or send him off to heaven by closing his eyes after he loses his breath.

Nonetheless, Leon saw the winning smile on the old man's face despite the pain that caused his eyes to turn red and tear up. Leon threw the old man on the couch and strode away.

If the old man dies, Aeon would be announced as the patriarch of the Harmon family. Aeon will become a major shareholder of Harmon industries. Leon couldn't take that risk.

Why? How?
