Aarvi understood the whole picture Dn was in. She wasn''t sure how much it was true or if he was faking everything just so he could help Leon y dirty against her like every time.
However, one thing was sure, Leon didn''t know Dn was helping her out in the ordeal three years back. She has to see the true color Dn for Leon. If he was supporting Leon, she wanted him to be against him.
"Leon killed your parents." She tested if he was aware.
There was a pause in Dn''s movements, "I know." Dn''s voice sounded menacing when he stood by the hearth and lit it to destroy the pictures.
If Dn wasn''t acting, Aarvi discerned his aim wasn''t just to get his sister. He was going to kill Leon soon after. He was stuck in the past without being able to move on or think about his own life.
So Dn knew one of the secrets of Leon. Aarvi nodded to herself. "He also killed his parents."
Dn dropped all the pictures to the fire,posing back to his cool. Even though Aarvi couldn''t see his face, his body visibly rxed. He turned around and took his seat. "I am aware of it too." He paused before he asked, gazing at her, "Are you telling me or testing me?"
Aarvi knew Dn was a smart cookie. Even though she sessfully tricked him a few times, he was still a hard nut to crack. "I can''t form an opinion on you." She told the truth.
Dn smiled at it. That smile had no malicious intent, it was pure amusement. Whatever he tries to expect or thinks of her, she is a total contrast to it. He thought she would pretend to be trusting or distrusting but she openly said what was going on in her head.
"Why don''t you try in the big picture?" The little questions wouldn''t bring her to trust him. He wanted her trust to bring down Leon so that he could make use of Leon''s vulnerable state to know about his sister. He was selfish too.
''The big picture?'' Aarvi couldn''t decide if he was asking to know about her next attack or if he wanted to gain her trust. If he was with Leon, then her series of ns would be destroyed.
Aarvi took her mobile out and dialed a number, "Before that…" She nced at Dn, "Tell me the details of your parents'' ident case, date/month/year of when you saw your sister… Or if you know the pimp Leon is working with." She briefed him on the required details.
Dn didn''t doubt her even a bit. "Will you help me?" He believed with Aarvi''s connections, she could reach far deeper and wider than his reach. He was helping those women all these years, in the hopes somebody might be helping his sister too. If that''s going to be Aarvi, he wouldn''t mind owing his whole life to her.
Aarvi looked at Dn when her finger was on the speaker option to click. ''Helping Dn?'' Aarvi sniggered. He might not have done anything to her directly, but he was still one among the people who wanted to kill her. "Maybe your sister."
She wanted to confirm what he would say was the truth before she thinks of spending her resources to look for a woman she doesn''t even know. But if Dn''s sister was alive and she managed to get her information, then Dn would be in her hands.
Importantly, was the story Dn said true? Or fake?
Helping his sister was what Dn mentioned as helping him. Dn couldn''t believe the girl who was running for her life from Leon was helping the Harmon family, Aeon, Sean, Eliza, their grandfather, and now his sister. He felt like Aarvi was born to snap a bug called Leon and save their family.
Before he could utter anything, they heard a girl''s voice, "On it, Boss." Aarvi had mentioned before that she might call them and they have to connect Elder Harmon mentioning him to just listen and speak only if required. So she was connecting with Elder Harmon.
A few seconds passed before the girl''s voice sounded, "Ready…" The call was connected and they were ready to test every word Dn was going to speak.
Aarvi looked at Dn, tossing her mobile on the bed that was at the side, in the center.
Dn repeated everything including the dates he could remember and the details he had collected. With it, he gave them details of his anonymous storage information to get the documents rted to the same.
Elder Harmon was dead quiet while Aarvi''s team was busy validating everything. Aarvi heardpletely without interjecting, asionally nodding at his words.
A part of her wanted to trust him but how he was ying two-way with Leon and the trust issues she had wasn''t letting her go easy on him.
Once Dn concluded, there was a long silence. Aarvi was thinking Dn might be true, taking Leon''s cunningness, Leon would never definitely have Dn''s weakness in the hand. As far as she could see Dn''s weakness was his sister if she is alive.
The first to break the silence was Elder Harmon, "Aarvi, don''t trust him."
Dn identified the voice immediately, "Grandpa?"
Aarvi knew Elder Harmon missed his granddaughter a lot. Shouldn''t he be eager to see her? Meet her?
Dn turned to the slid door and heard the gun recoil. Even though he couldn''t see anybody in the darkness, he knew somebody was pointing their firearm at him, especially after seeing Aarvi''s bone-chilling calmness.
Elder Harmon took a loud breath and continued to speak about his worry. "Dn had indeed cried over more than a month asking me to look for my granddaughter. He might be right. But Aarvi, Leon could use my granddaughter and put him against you using that trust. It''s very dangerous for you."
Elder Harmon wasn''t sure if his granddaughter was alive or dead. He had epted she is no more so he didn''t want Aarvi who was going extra lengths for him, Aeon, and Sean to end up tragically.
Aarvi first grasped Dn didn''t lie as far as Elder Harmon knew. So she cued Alex to rx. The door slowly closed back.
Aarvi didn''t know how to respond to Elder Harmon. Ava kelly had her two crazy friends and a brother, as Aarvi Evans, she had them with theplete family and many well-wishers. She didn''t get anybody due to her birth, she had earned each one of them. She was proud of herself.
Before Aarvi could respond to Elder Harmon, Dn spoke in uncertainty, "Grandpa… is right." Initially, he was dejected hearing his grandfather who wasn''t ready to believe him.
When Dyan gave it a thought, Dn knew he didn''t do anything to gain his grandfather''s trust. He never opened up his real side to anybody, when he finally did, how could they believe him? So he wasn''t going to me him.
Considering Elder Harmon''s words, Dn epted Leon could hold his weakness but his weakness wasn''t just his little sister, Aeon, Sean, and his grandfather are his weakness too. He only had them as a family. He had stopped Leon numerous times with random excuses so that he wouldn''t kill Sean. Aeon had to keep him alive while Elder Harmon''s own will was keeping Elder Harmon breathing.
"I don''t need your trust." He shook his head. This time his expression and voice were firm and resolute, "I can help you without questioning back."
Aarvi leaned back with a serene smile on her face. She looked breathtakingly beautiful when her finger ran over her hair lock.
She had many chips in hand to make Dn surrender to her and work for her without a question. Now, she would keep them safe for him.
