YM778.TV Chapter 743 - Waiting For Her
Zain alerted her in a warning tone, "Pumpkin, Dylan Harmon is controlling us and we don\'t even know that."
Aarvi\'s expression changed to serenity. She neither panicked nor worried as she had expected Dylan to play something big. She asked in a quiet voice, opposite to the bubbling anger of Zain, "For example?" She wanted to know the gist of his reach.
At another end of the call, Zain calmed down hearing his sister. He realized he was overwhelmed at the newfound revelation and reached out to her forgetting she was at the court. Whereas his little sister was expecting it, probably an even bigger revelation. So he just gave the tip of the iceberg, "Dylan gave the information of your location to the military."
Aarvi recalled the day she was brutally pushed to the brink of death. Aaron had orchestrated the terrorist attack and used the military to search for her. Dylan gave the tip-off to the military so that she could be saved. And it wasn\'t the only time Dylan tried to save her, first he let her run from the hotel, gave her mobile in the elevator, malfunctioned the handgun.
"Dylan Harmon set me up against Leon. He wanted a woman to destroy Leon." Aarvi briefed the possible intentions of Dylan.
Zain was about to agree with her first set of words but paused hearing her last words. Thinking of the whole situation after hearing Aarvi, Dylan indeed had countless numbers of chances to destroy Leon but he held back and waited.
Aarvi looked at Aaron who came to her. She watched a hint of concern on Aaron\'s face looking at her unreadable. Aarvi could guess what Zain and Aaron were going to do with Dylan. Her gaze shifted to Shawn who went inside the courtroom with Nikun and Driss Carlos. She chose to keep Dax and Shawn out of this or else they will end up killing Dylan.
"Apple Pie, are you free at five?" She asked so that they could kick the truth out of Dylan.
Zain understood her intention and was glad she wasn\'t going alone, "Send me the address." Then he ended the call hearing her hum.
"What\'s wrong?" Aaron immediately asked.
Aarvi watched him for a few seconds. Although she could only confirm after speaking with Dylan, she wildly guessed, "I was chosen to destroy Leon Harmon." She found it strange and extremely infuriating.
If it was Leon\'s lust that brought her to this state, she could blame her fate for catching his attention. However, it was hard to digest that somebody chose her to go through the pain for their interest.
Aaron\'s face darkened significantly, he clenched his teeth understanding her words very accurately, "DYLAN HARMON." He said through his teeth.
Aarvi held his arm, totally understanding his anger when she, who doesn\'t like violence, was craving to punch Dylan in the face. "Not now, Ronron." She had so many questions to be answered.
However, Aaron sat in the courtroom with murderous air when judge Rowlatt was concluding the session.
"After going through the evidence and testimony regarding the case number XXXX, attempting to kidnap and harm, Leon Harmon fails to prove his innocence."
He glanced up from the paper he was reading and continued, "On the request of the defense lawyer, the court is granting a day before the final hearing of the case on Wednesday."
Nikun had expected it. Leon\'s main bargain, his psychological condition of anger management. James would have used it right away if the case was just about an attempt to kidnap. However, Leon would be sent for interrogation due to new cases so James was waiting to bring it up at the end when there was no hope.
Judge Rowlatt continued, "The court is ordering Sean Harmon to write the complaint about his friend\'s death for further investigation and cooperate with the investigation process.
The medical certificate of Leon Harmon\'s impotency is verified. Under the Special Marriage Act, the court hereby announces Eliza Lane has the complete authority to stay or leave Leon Harmon. However, The court orders Eliza Lane to submit a complaint of domestic violence.
At last, the Lane family\'s disappearance is proved. The search team is working on them. Hence Leon Harmon will be under custody for further investigation. The corresponding cases will be handled accordingly. The court is adjourned." He slammed the wooden hammer once before getting up from the chair.
Everyone stood up and waited for him to exit the courtroom. Aarvi was leaving but she paused next to James Crawford. Her lips sly arced before she turned to him.
"Arrogant!?" Aarvi uttered what James Crawford thought of her. "It\'s an attitude which you can\'t handle."
James clenched his teeth glaring at her. When she turned her heels, "Don\'t be a snob."
Aarvi turned back to him and simpered. James was the one who picked Leon because he was a big figure and he never heard of her. Nikun stole her line, "Pot called the kettle black."
Then Nikun flashed a sly smirk with a contemptuous tone, "Master, you know where I drew the line."
James shot daggers at Nikun. He grabbed his file and stormed out.
Aarvi questioned right away, "Brother Nick, what did he do to you yesterday?"
Nikun led her out as he revealed, "He drugged my lunch." When he got the invitation for lunch, he chose a place calling it his favorite. It was an open roadside restaurant. His car dashboard camera recorded James pouring something into his soup bowl after James sent him away.
"What!!?"
Nikun turned around and flashed his playful smirk, "I immediately threw up by drinking a med asking your doctor husband."
Aarvi turned to Aaron, She casually asked, "You knew it?"
Aaron immediately responded to avoid any stupid misunderstanding, "He lied to me as his assistant ate something wrong."
Aaron was expecting to get scolded but his wife chided his friend, "Are you out of your mind? It was risky, Brother Nick. What if it was poison?"
Nikun\'s smile vanished. He breathed out loud with a disappointment on his face, "I guessed Master won\'t kill me." His lips tugged to a sad curve as they exited the courtroom.
Aarvi felt bad how master and apprentice came to odds because of her. "I am sorry." She apologized and got scolded.
Leon was swarmed with the reporters, the cops were pretending to disperse them while they let the media take his picture, ask horrible questions.
Another set of media reporters rushed to them, quickly the Rivas security avoided them and escorted all the lawyers, couple, and Shawn out.
Aeon had already learned his lesson and understood the responsibilities. So Harmon Industries security was there to escort them safely. None answered any questions, leaving the media desperate for juicy news.
While the Harmon family was busy with their work at the police station with the help of Nikun\'s assistant, Aarvi brought everyone to a restaurant for a sumptuous lunch. Dax joined them and got the updates.
Aarvi and Aaron didn\'t speak a word about Dylan. Once everyone retired to their destination, Aarvi and Aaron went to Skyarc. All the while, Aarvi\'s team kept her updated about Dylan\'s location and actions.
Aaron was in no mood to read his books or go to the hospital. It was hard for him to wait when he was craving to bury the man deep in the ground.
However, Aarvi patiently did her office work on her laptop with her left hand, while his head rested on her lap and her slender fingers tangled with his hair, gently massaging his scalp. It worked wonders, he was cooling off, though Dylan\'s matter stayed in the back of his mind.
Aaron was napping when Aarvi kept receiving Dylan\'s activities. Dylan dropped James and his team at a hotel, then he went to his apartment. After an hour, he inconspicuously left his apartment in a new set of clothes and reached a cafe on the highway that was under Skylar. He was reading a random magazine and sipping cold coffee for more than two hours.
Aarvi discerned Dylan was waiting for her in the cafe. He was indeed controlling her as it was also her plan to meet him. She could prove him wrong, she had that patience but Aaron and Zain couldn\'t.. She didn\'t want them to suppress their anger and worsen their mood.
