The Traps of Black Swan

Four hours earlier,

Aarvi stood up as she looked around Dylan\'s bedroom, "Do you mind if I mess your bedroom a bit?"

Dylan was confused. Since he had accepted he would do anything in his power, he nodded. "No issues, but why…"

Aarvi flicked her fingers. The Shadow team who were hiding in the villa and outside, Came out and started messing the bed, changed bin covers, threw a few things here and there. Took another wine glass and sipped wine before leaving it on the table… Just like that, in less than a minute his room looked like…

Dylan speechlessly looked at Aarvi. He wanted to ask why she was doing that, but Alex handed him a card and introduced whose card it belonged, "She is a professional escort, you might need it." Then Alex turned to Aarvi, "Young Madam, anything else?"

Aarvi looked carefully around the room, "Perfect." It looked like a couple had a wild night. Her previous night with Aaron paid off to judge the room. 

When her eyes landed on Dylan. She instructed Alex while her eyes were on Dylan, "Just get rid of his clothes."

Dylan: "..."

Then Aarvi grabbed her file which had other crucial information she wanted to use for Dylan and passed it to Max. "Have a good night." She went out of the main door while the shadow dived into the water.

Dylan understood Alex\'s gaze. "I will do it myself." He stopped Alex before he tried to get rid of his clothes and sent Alex away. He threw the escort\'s card away and removed his clothes. He couldn\'t believe he was being part of Aarvi\'s acts which made no sense to him.

----

Well, it hadn\'t given Dylan any sense till Leon appeared. He clearly knew what was going on in Leon\'s head and what other men were doing in his villa. 

He unlocked his mobile for his men to check and repeated the question as though he had no idea, "Brother Leon, could you tell me what\'s going on? Are you thinking I am cheating in the business?"

Leon noticed his men shake their heads so he fished his mobile out and opened a picture. Showing the screen to Dylan, "Who is she?" He sounded as murderous as he looked.

Dylan sharply tilted his head as the picture was in a different orientation on the mobile screen, "Oh Lyla…" He sounded surprised, "Did you like her, Brother Leon?" He behaved dumb and clueless.

Dylan turned around recalling he had thrown her card somewhere. He grabbed it and handed him, "She is pretty good. Call her if you are stressed."

He paused seeing Leon inarticulate. He wanted to applaud Aarvi but he controlled. He continued as though he was recalling just now, "Oh yeah, why didn\'t you tell me you were coming? If you are here, should I go and take care of the company?" He sounded responsible and workaholic like every time.

Leon had the urge to crumple the card that Dylan handed him and yell in frustration. He didn\'t actually doubt Dylan in the first place. He knew Aarvi would find a chance to deal with Dylan, so he was expecting Dylan to end like others or Dylan to deal with Aarvi.

If both scenarios weren\'t feasible, Leon had expected Dylan and Aarvi to have a good conversation or Dylan joining hands with Aarvi as Dylan was a prime key that could reveal everything about him.

Hence if the woman who entered and left Dylan\'s villa wasn\'t Aarvi, then what was Aarvi planning for Dylan? Because the latter would be Harmon Industries if he returns to Mocon. 

Upon all that, Leon disliked how Dylan didn\'t fear despite guessing gunmetal on his forehead and how Dylan was left out when he was being tortured by her. 

Leon\'s sharp eyes shifted on Dylan, only if the latter was so easy to study. Sometimes Leon admired Dylan as his level-headedness solved all the mess that he always created.

Leon glanced at his men and pointed to the wardrobe, instructing him to get clothes for Dylan, "Dress and come out." He ordered Dylan and walked out of the bedroom.

Dylan rolled his eyes, cursing Leon for not giving him a chance to sleep peacefully even when he came so far away. What amused him was how Aarvi\'s precaution and little acts were enough to change the direction of everything. In front of her witty dangerous brain, the powerful, vicious Leon appeared too weak for Dylan.

The question is, did she know Leon would drop there? Or was she just cautious? 

Well, he didn\'t care. He was impressed how she was heedful of every little thing. His work was to play along until he got instructions from Aarvi. How and When? He had no idea.

Dylan wore his clothes and went out of the bedroom, hearing Leon instruct his men to check if Lyla, the escort, looked as in the picture. He meant slender, tall, long hair.

"Brother Leon?" He stood by the couch. He didn\'t worry about Lyla as it was Aarvi or her team who chose that woman. He didn\'t think Aarvi had any plan to put him in trouble.

Or does she?

Aarvi could destroy Dylan through Leon\'s hands just like how Leon ruined the Craft family.

Leon threw a handgun at Dylan before he ordered his plan, "End those little pricks today. She is sitting on my nerves nowadays."

Dylan caught the handgun and checked the magazine of bullets and stuck the gun to his pant belt as he asked, "Done." He agreed fluently, just like he always agreed on Leon\'s words. 

Leon saw Dylan frown before a wicked grin appeared on the latter\'s face, "Brother Leon if we capture both, torture President Rivas, right in front of Ava Kelly, she will submit to you. Won\'t she?" He sounded like he was just suggesting.

Well, it was Dylan\'s way of delaying, trying to keep the couple alive and giving a chance for the couple to escape.

Leon squinted his eyes. Capturing Aaron and Aarvi alive when Roach was around was impossible. Leon had tried to know about the team behind Aarvi, getting their information was more difficult than Aarvi\'s information. 

Even though Dylan\'s idea sounded enticing, it also meant danger. Imagining helpless Aarvi sacrificing herself for Aaron thrilled him but recalling Aarvi slitting his throat sent a cold run down his spine.

Before Leon could doubt, Dylan brushed off his suggestion, "Never mind. If they escape, it will be a problem for you, Brother Leon." He wore his shoes leaving the slippers as he asked, "By the way, which section and villa are they staying in?"

Leon glanced at the young man who was in a room service uniform. That man fished a paper out of his pocket and unfolded it quickly. Spread it out on the table. 

Dylan saw it was a map of the whole island. Since the island wasn\'t big, it was easier to put down each of the villas, buildings, and outlets on paper.

The other kneeled on the table and started explaining, "The Rivas and Skylar had requested a total of 9 villas. They had requested the villa right next to this villa." He pointed to the villa as he continued, "President Evans and President Rivas indeed went inside but after Secretary Wen and Movie Queen went inside, they inconspicuously exchanged the villa."

Dylan pointed to the villa which was originally Milo and Esme\'s room, "So, President Rivas and President Evans are in this villa."

The man who was kneeling on the floor smirked triumphantly and greedily. He looked at Leon as though waiting to get his credits and bonus when he revealed, "Absolutely not." He grabbed a pen from the table and circled another villa location on the map, "They are here doubling their security."
