Chapter 549 - Overnight

Once Aarvi strikes Leon down from his throne, she wants everything to be arranged cleanly and Leon shouldn't get time to arrange anything in his favor. His appointed advocates should go helpless.

Hence she was carefully considering the lawyers and contacting the international legal practitioner to handle Leon's case. If Nikun trips in her plan, then Leon would go rampant and she won't get time to plan. Attacks without planning won't have the results she needs.​​

Nikun got gooseflesh looking at Aarvi serene and her oppressing gaze. He started thinking what did he say wrong when she uttered, "If that happens, Leon will kill you, then he will suicide." She flashed a beautiful but cunning smile.

Mehak who was sitting on the couch aside choked on her spit hearing Aarvi's threat that sounded sweet in her voice.

Nikun banged his fist on the table as he corrected what Aarvi meant, "Why don't you just say you will kill me and Leon?"

Mehak: "..."

Aarvi sat back lazily as she crossed her legs and her fingers interlocked as she nodded at Nikun. "Oh! Good that you know." Aarvi carelessly said leaving him speechless.

Nonetheless, Aarvi thought she should have a backup if something goes wrong in the middle of the last stage. She hadn't taken additional measures because she had assumed if all the evidence are strong and collected, it wouldn't take long. 

Well, she was wrong there. She was ready to correct herself and smooth out her plan.

Mehak's voice sounded behind her, "Guys, you are just trying to scare me, right?" She couldn't believe her ear that she heard about the kill and death of her boyfriend.

Nikun and Aarvi's lips curled hearing Mehak's bewildered voice. Turning to her, both responded in unison, "Absolutely."

"What the hell, guys! Ugh. That was the worst joke ever." She pulled a long face and ignored them.

The duo chuckled while both thought about how to keep Mehak safe when Nikun's action would start. Nikun also realized how his profession could put Mehak in trouble if the opposition is unscrupulous.

Aarvi asked her next worry, "What about Leon's psychosis? How will that affect the case?"

Nikun chuckled when he heard about Leon's mental disorder. "Your husband is quick-witted. He will get me the certificate to say Leon has no mental issues and I will prove as Leon is putting on an act if he brings it up."

Aarvi hid her smile while in her mind, she was leaping in joy for having an intelligent husband who was taking care of the many things silently.

After some more talk, Aarvi went to a vacant room in the law firm and reached Dax immediately to find out how the problem was so easily and quickly solved. With that, Tia had dropped a message asking if she could speak with Clark.

She could join the dots and guess Clark might have done a favor to solve Skylar's drug case issue and in return for it, he needs her help.

She couldn't understand why people don't understand directly. Instead, they need to be taught a lesson first. Alas, since Clark didn't forcefully reach her, she thought to consider it.

"I am so sorry, Dax. I was a little busy with the lawyer." Aarvi first apologized for not answering the call and taking so long to reach him.

"It's alright, Dum Dum." He patiently responded yet she could feel he was busy in his office.

"So what happened today?" She didn't reveal Tia's message so that Dax could tell her everything in brief.

"Isn't it enough to know everything is resolved?"

Aarvi became even more curious so she turned down his plan, "Are you keeping me out of my company? Shall I write my company in your name?"

Helpless against her, he had to brief her about his encounter with Tia.

---- In the Morning ----

Dax hadn't answered the call from Tia even once. He also ignored her messages and started his day worried about how the public might reach Skylar's chains of restaurants and cafes.

According to the morning reports, all the employees were at work without fear. And surprisingly, the public wasn't responding to the news so strongly. In reality, they didn't care how a branch had to be locked down as all they cared was how they were being served and the taste of the food.

Even though there was a drop in customer flow, it could be overlooked. Hence Dax left home thinking about who was going to take up the case. If Leon had arranged somebody, then it was going to hit the company hard.

After stepping out did he realize, Tia was outside his villa waiting for him. "Dax…" She hesitantly uttered.

Dax could guess she was waiting for more than an hour. Nonetheless, with a stoic face, he walked past her, as though she was invisible.

Tia had to stride faster to match up with his speed as she walked behind him, "Dax, listen to me once… Dax… It's about the drug case."

Dax halted hearing it, yet he didn't turn around. He assumed Clark might take up the case and he will purposefully attack the company. He was mentally preparing for it when Tia stood in front of him.

"Clark solved the case overnight. He wants to know if he should directly report it or if Sister Aarvi has any plans as Leon Harmon is targeting you guys." Tia quickly reported in case of Dax again starts to run.

Hearing Aarvi, Dax craved to growl, 'contact Aarvi' but he paused. He realized he was really affected by Tia and he was angry at her.

He took a silent breath looking at Tia who was anticipating him to speak. Dax had changed Aarvi's main plan so that Leon could kidnap Tia. It would reveal Leon's real face to Tia and her team, especially Clark. And that way, Clark would beg Aarvi to help them, accepting Aarvi's condition.

Dax made those changes so that it could help Aarvi with her plan to go smoothly instead of Aarvi troubling herself with a new plan.

Hearing Clark took care of the case so fast, Dax discerned that Clark wouldn't beg Aarvi, instead, he was doing a favor to gain their trust. He was ready to accept her help and also wait for Aarvi's orders. 

Tia almost lost her hope to hear him when he cared to separate his lips, "Tell him to submit it." Then he walked away from her

Tia: "..."

Dax knew Aarvi won't put any plans that will affect Skylar so he answered her question. Purposefully ignoring the intentions of Clark.
