Every second was like a punishment to Leon. So ten minutes was pure torture. However, his anger didn''t subside. It just grew stronger with each minute.


    Before he could flip the table, the receptionist got a call and her fear was back. Now she has to ry that information to Leon. Thedy tried to plead with the other one but she was even more scared. So as a senior to her, she inhaled a sharp breath and made way towards Leon whose face was darker than the cloudy rain. "P-Preisdent Harmon, let me escort you to meet President Evans. This way please."


    Leon breathed out loudly and stood up. He walked away so fast that the receptionist almost tripped on her heels. Quickly bncing, she jogged behind him afraid of getting harshly scolded by him..


    Leon had to stop due to the receptionist. When he turned around to ask her to be quick, Alex was back, he was right behind the receptionist so that Leon could behave.


    He clenched his teeth and waited for thedy to catch up. She scanned her card and pointed inside for him to enter. Then she scanned again and went inside.


    Alex followed them in silence and entered the elevator. Of course, he won''t take the chance of Leon molesting the youngdy who was quivering at the elevator door. He noticed they were going to general employees or the team meeting floor. It was better. There were cameras, employees would be walking around and emergency handling would be easier.


    Leon thought about why he was there. As soon as Aarvi ended the call, all he wanted to do was strangle her to death. So he wasn''t sure why exactly he was standing in the Skr. To vent his frustration? Is it even possible? Or to show her she couldn''t defeat him?


    Since she already expected his arrival, he thought to see what she had in store for him. Then he could react ordingly. For a moment he thought he should act like a victim of Aarvi''s lecherous n in front of some audience but then again, he wasn''t pro at acting like Aarvi.


    The elevator stopped before reaching the top. He stepped out of the elevator behind the receptionist. He saw ss cubicles around. The different teams were in meetings, some were going inside and some wereing out. It was a busy office hour.


    Whoever saw him either eximed or murmured with each other after identifying him. However, everyone stayed away from him. They had seen the viral video of Aarvi throwing wine on his face for locking his grandfather. So even a floor cleaner could say Leon wasn''t a friend of thepany. And his expression was loudly saying he was angry. All were curious and alert thinking Leon might be there to hurt somebody.


    Leon followed thedy and entered the meeting hall which was bigger than any of the halls and in the center with numerous eyes on him. However, what caught his attention was the Smart Screen disying hispany statistics. He didn''t even hear the receptionist asking him to wait there.


    Alex closed the door and saw halted employees. "Get back to work." He ordered authoritatively. They didn''t know Alex but his bearing made them get back to whatever they were doing.


    Leon watched the Harmon stock price increase beyond the threshold. Then his eyes scanned therge meeting room. Nobody was there. She couldn''t possibly think of locking him in the room, right? He saw there was no lock so it was ruled out.


    He paced in the room, then sat down waiting for Aarvi. She was purposefully doing it yet he was helpless. He was alone in the enemy territory.


    Suddenly his attention shifted to the screen when the brightness of the screen altered. It was the detailed market depth. He could see how many were selling the shares and how many were buying them. There were more buyers so the price kept increasing


    The door of the meeting room suddenly opened. He was expecting Aarvi toe but Dax entered as though he wasn''t the one who got attacked or operated on. He went to the other end of the table with Shawn in tow. While Dax looked serious, Shawn yawnedzily.


    The door was closing when a stylishdy in ck stepped inside. She was wearing a jumpsuit, hugging her curves. Her left shoulder was bare and her long mocha brown wavy hair was settling on her shoulder. A white cloth was styled in high neck draping to her right hand covering her hands. The hem of the sleeves gave the glimpse of an expensive wristwatch.


    As soon as Leon''s eyes fell on her serene face, his anger seemed to roar at her. He jerked up intending to grab her neck and choke her to death.


    Alex, who was behind Aarvi, tilted his head and looked at Leon. Leon involuntarily paused. He knew Alex and his team members were eager to kill him. They had told him in the Harmon mansion that they will kill him and act as they killed him in self-defense to protect Aarvi.


    He wasn''t there to die.


    Aarvi ignored Leon and his actions. She was on a call instructing the market maniptors that it was time they pull the money back. They were in profit and she will have to pay them a few million out of her pockets for the job. Well, she was earning it from Harmon industries anyway.


    Aarvi sat down next to Shawn instead of the head of the seat. She watched the screen, while Dax was busy on hisptop and Shawn was provokingly looking at Leon.


    "Why are you here?" Aarvi asked because she was aware Leon was there due to anger.


    Leon red at her back and bellowed the question in response, "What the f**k are you nning?"


    Shawn rolled his eyes at the man''s audacity. Hard to change habits.


    Dax and Shawn were expecting the serious Aarvi as she always behaves with the rest. They didn''t know that Aarvi irritates Leon with her happiness.


    Aarvi turned her swivel chair with a curious smile on her face, "Me? Not. My husband is nning a dinner date tonight. I am very excited."


    Shawn and Dax: "..."


    Alex knew Shawn could handle Leon so he closed the door shaking his head. She puts her hand in Leon''s brain and squeezes out every drop of blood.


    "Aarvi Evans!!" Leon grunted in annoyance.


    Shawn chose to correct Leon on behalf of Aarvi, "Leon Harmon, It''s called scheming."


    Dax saw the two low fiving under the table and silentlyughed.


    Leon wasn''t in a mood to joke with them. He mmed the wooden table and growled, "What the f**k are you up to?"


    The m and the high-pitched voice caught the attention from outside. Other meeting people paused to look at them.


    Aarvi cued him to sit. "Keep your eyes peeled on the screen for another ten minutes. I will make your nightmaree true." Aarvi sounded mysterious.


    "It was you who was manipting." Leon knew all along but he hadn''t thought Aarvi could have such connections.


    "Bingo!" The trio''s voice sounded in unison. They hadn''t nned as such so they looked at each other and chuckled in real fun and happiness.


    However, Leon smirked mockingly, "Do you think only you have the money and connection? You are kids in the business." He scoffed confidently.
