Aarvi nodded towards a corner. A man appeared from the Shadow and collected her laptop away. It also meant she was done being entertained by Leon.

Leon narrowed his eyes at the man. The man looked no special to him. He was just tall, sturdy, and unemotional.

'Could he be Ava Kelly's boyfriend? She found herself the trash again.' Leon thought, still having a glimmer of hope to get her. His brows constricted when the man took her laptop, bowed her, and left.

Aarvi knew Leon was trying to find her through Shawn, Dax, and Zain. With that, Leon didn't even know who she is and where is, yet he was trying to know her boyfriend. It was ridiculous. Looking at him scrutinize one of the Shadow team members, she could only roll her eyes. 

Aaron would have been sitting with her but he had an important video conference to attend. That's the Golden oil and gas project. Even though he wanted to stick around her, she had sent him as it would be over by the time she warns Leon.

"You had meticulously sent everyone away from me. Didn't you? Leon Harmon." She questioned about the past that needed no answer. 

Leon wasn't surprised hearing her find out that three years ago he had sent each one away from her whom she could rely on or protect her. She was the only one who he had to plan so much, waste his money just for a night. Although his plan was perfect, he failed to have her on his bed and she paid him back by kicking him in the balls. Making him impotent but immune to her.

"Are you planning to do the same?" She smirked questioning him. How he had to be smart, work hard, and spend money to get her when she was just a simple graduated woman.

Leon gnashed his teeth at her mocking smile. Even if he does that, he was aware she doesn't need anybody to protect her. She was self-sufficient, strong, and real independent without in need of a knight in shining armor.

How he hated her intelligence. He really wished her to be a gold-digging woman with no brain. It would have been so easy to have her around him. However, he had forgotten the fact that he was attracted to her beauty, innocence, and simplicity.

"Oops." Aarvi's eyes widened at the crucial realization and mocked, "For that, you don't even know who is close to me."

His rage was growing inside him like a tumor yet she stood there calmly. Without a hint of fear, she was jeering on his face, condemning the skills of him and his team to gather information about her.

Should he praise her braveness or just choke her to death? Death? He still wanted her despite hearing her ridicule him. And that irritation was flaring inside him.

Aarvi offered a helping hand. Helping a foe is equal to, hurting their pride. How could she miss that? "Let me assist you."

She turned left where her crazy two friends were aloof and her protective brother had a smug smile when they were coming towards them. 

'Wait? Where is Aaron?' Aarvi thought but didn't react. If he doesn't come, will that mean she is breaking the promise or he? She didn't know and she didn't care. If he didn't come, one thing was sure, she will kick him out of the penthouse for a few days.

Leon followed her line of sight and saw three men. He wanted to crush his men to the ground. These three men were together all these days, yet his men failed to get any clue out.

The striking one in them was Zain Kelly, the smile on his face was cheery on the top which girls would go crazy and shriek. He was most suited to be an idol with his slender, fit physique. If the black orbs of Aarvi bring the charms to her petite face, the same black orbs molded sharpness to Zain, yet there was unknown gentleness.

Shawn Rivas, one who always made Sean jealous and also admire. If Sean was the spoiled Prince, the real Prince one who was worthy of admiration was always Shawn. One who puts his closed ones closer and foes at his feet. The tougher he was, his appearance was easy to get along with. That flocks the ladies to swoon on him.

The cold, sharp-tongued, and fearless was Dax Grant. His growth from nobody to a prominent figure was truly commendable. Leon had seen business news channels and papers singing praises to him at their will. He was a true inspiration for the new young generation.

Leon saw Aarvi hugging Zain whose face molded to softness with a proud smile. He couldn't understand one thing. Zain was broken at the funeral of Ava Kelly when they were burying the decayed body of a girl. He wasn't even in the city when Ava Kelly was missing, so he couldn't be the savior.

Dax wasn't in the city too, Shawn had just returned in the evening with high security because of the terror attack on Rivas constructing building.

So who actually saved Ava Kelly?

Aarvi turned around after squinting her eyes at two friends who purposefully came late and smirking at her. "Leon Harmon, let's see who you can manipulate this time."

Three years back, each of them was a novice, young, had weaknesses, problems to take care and Leon used it in his favor. It won't be wrong to say Leon was the reason behind their resolution of toughening up and mature faster than needed. He showed them the reality which they had probably just heard of it or never thought of it.

Ava Kelly also had the ones who betrayed her, threw her out, and abandoned her. Now, Aarvi Evans didn't only have the one who treasured her, she could also stand the betrayal and face everything alone.

She wasn't perfect. She undoubtedly had weaknesses but she learned to overcome them when needed. She knew to make her weakness morph into her strength.

So what will Leon do to control her?

Leon was clenching his teeth, looking at the younger ones' mocking gazes. It was indeed hard to believe four who were nothing, became so strong and resolute. It also made him realize that he didn't have growth in his personality and power in the past three years.

Suddenly the intense tension in the air morphed to mellowness. He saw a mirthful smile bloom on Aarvi's face. Her fair skin slowly turned to soft glowing pink, her eyes curled to soft crescents which made his heart shudder before it started beating, a little faster than he could feel it in his ears.

It was as though a dark soul left her body and stood Ava Kelly who was innocent as Little Lamb. There was nothing fakeness in it even when he thought she was trying to fool him.

When her almond-shaped eyes opened, the black orbs dazzled brighter than the sun that was shining through the glass wall. Even though she was facing him, her line was sight was next to his arm, moving up to his shoulder.

He felt a strong presence getting near him and the three men behind Aarvi, shook their heads in resignation, looking at Aarvi and the person behind him.

There was an elevator so he turned around to have look at the being that could melt the cold tigress to a teenager-infatuated girl.

A person wearing navy blue passed right beside him. Leon's eyes widened in reaction. If the fear of Aarvi was in his gut, this person's fear flashed on his face.
