The Traps of Black Swan

Aeon who got saved and others who watched the incident gave her the look of 'You fool~' hearing her blame wishing death instead of showing deep gratitude.

However, Mia didn't let anybody speak or she didn't care to think why others had contemptible gazes at her. Mia had witnessed the entertainment industry showing their back at her after her father, Billy Craft's incident so she was irritated yet helpless against those disdain filled eyes or words from others.

Mia turned to Aarvi after her words at Aeon. Aarvi frowned for disturbing her call with Aaron who asked, [Aarvi, how are you?] Of course, Aaron's main concern was Aarvi and her safety. It doesn't matter to him if she was going to hurt others or if it's one of her plans to act.

Aarvi ignored the screaming woman and responded to Aaron, "Yep, I am… No, No, I fell on my bum and it's hurting." She whined like a spoiled girlfriend in need of attention

Aaron obviously understood she was fine, maybe in little pain but she achieved her goal to get the smile on his face erasing the worry.

Karsen tried to peek at Aaron's face seeing him control the smiles, 'Is Aarvi flirting? My son is so happy.' He thought seeing genuine happiness.

However, Dax was rolling on his bed holding his stomach laughing hard. He hadn't expected the cunning crafty scheming Aarvi still could be so cute.

Aarvi was about to continue to bid Aaron so that he could be on time for an operation but heard a shrill voice at her losing her temper. She just wanted a minute or two to tease her boyfriend however the world doesn't seem like it.

"You! What are you muttering on the ground? Did you lose your brain? Now don't start the drama of lost memories. If you want to die, go and die on the road or jump off from a building, why are you dragging my boyfriend into it. Does it... look..."

Aarvi breathed out slowly and combed her hair back aside with her slender fingers finally showing her face to the yelling woman whose eyes widened.

Mia felt insecure looking at the face that was so flawless and gorgeous that her make up face felt hideous to herself. Anyhow she wasn't going to back down when Aarvi kept her boyfriend's life in danger.

"... Does it look entertaining to play the damsel in distress? Huh?" Mia gazed furiously at Aarvi.

Milo Wen's wife, Esme who was standing away got the sight of Aarvi and rushed to her removing her own jacket. She was double careful when it was about Aarvi so she kneeled first before speaking, "Ms. Evans."

Esme got a greeting of a serene smile with a nod from Aarvi. Esme draped the jacket on Aarvi's waist covering down till knees and softly asked, "Did you sprain your ankle? Let me help you stand."

Mia's jaws dropped looking at Esme treat the lady like a piece of treasure that she even had a warm gentle smile. Esme is a private person when it comes to mingling with people of the entertainment circle but her professionalism was never questioned else she wouldn't be a queen in the industry even at the age of twenty-six.

Aarvi nodded at Esme clenching her fist before holding her hand to stand up. Aeon, who was annoyed by the behavior of Mia, realized why Aarvi was sitting on the ground for so long. Aarvi was in a short dress and high heels, standing right away from the ground wouldn't be sightful in front of the crowd.

Chiding himself, he turned around and announced, "Back to work and the technician team at my chair now." None dared to dilly dally and followed his orders.

Esme stretched her hand at her personal assistant who quickly handed her the soft napkin. She helped Aarvi dusting her back while she spoke to Aaron, "There is nothing to worry about, concentrate on the operation. I will wait for you at home."

Mia couldn't understand why Aeon and Esme were keeping up with the girl who didn't care about her presence. She had thought she wanted Aeon's attention but heard her mellow voice and discerned she was on call the whole time.

Aarvi had yet to bid Dax after Aaron but Mia sneered, "You girls don't see anything when submerged flirting with the men."

However Esme mocked, "Ms. Craft, are you referring it to your boyfriend? Because you are riling up on the one who saved Director Harmon." She had heard staff talking about the incident.

"Huh?" Mia knows how Aeon treats the woman who throws themselves on him and now, he wasn't annoyed at the lady but… on her.

She gulped the nonexistent saliva, her trembling hand tried to wipe away the precipitation at her neck looking at the sharp gaze of Aeon. She was ready to apologize to the lady unwilling to dissatisfy Aeon.

But she was too late. Aarvi finally separated her lips, "Miss, you should learn your limits, think before opening your mouth in front of anybody, especially in front of me." She smiled a beautiful smirk.

"Do you know the consequences of shouting at me?" Aarvi asked dusting her hands after passing the jacket to Esme's assistant.

Mia frowned at her words also at the calmness she bore. The lady didn't get angry, didn't flinch even a little for the fall nor she was sad for being misunderstood. However, who gave her the confidence to keep herself high at Aeon's film shooting set?

Aeon cut in before Aarvi could take any decision, "Ms. Evans, I am sorry on behalf of Mia. She misunderstood the situation else she wouldn't have said all those."

Mia turned to Aeon in disbelief due to his apology. 'Aeon likes her!?' Her brain could only come with that proposition.

However, Esme started to think why Aeon was giving so much respect to Aarvi because Aarvi's identity is confidential and Esme didn't know Aarvi is the President of Skylar.

Aarvi's gaze went on Aeon and her eyes sharped on him. She doesn't want to be the savior of him but the devil he should be afraid of just by the thought of her. "President Harmon, when you can't keep your own dam life safe, how should I expect you to keep my investment safe? And…"

Her gaze shifted to Mia thinking at least one of her light bulb worked in her head and identify Aarvi as the investor and the shareholder of Amiah Entertainment but was disappointed to look at her gazing Aeon Harmon in disbelief for the apology,

'Tsk, what could she expect from the dumb girl?' Aarvi thought and asked Aeon but looking at Mia, "Are you planning to clean your girlfriend's image with the movie?"

Aeon didn't expect Aarvi to weigh Mia on her father's scale. He wanted to give the justification but Mia snapped at Aarvi, "What do you mean? What's wrong with my image? Acting is important, not the background. If you don't know a thing, you shouldn't talk about it either. I am perfect for the role."

Esme understood Aarvi is the investor of the movie and heard Mia, she couldn't help but chuckle sarcastically at Mia and said in elegance, "Ms. Craft, you think too highly of yourself."

As a personal mentor of Aarvi, while teaching her acting, nobody knows Aarvi's full potential except her. She had thought Aarvi would enter the entertainment industries but later got to know she just learned. Matter of fact, she was really excited those days thinking Aarvi was going to take the entertainment industry on her palms with Aaron as her hidden system.

Aarvi uttered a single word for Mia, "Overconfidence."

She turned to leave with Esme but Mia who was offended by Aarvi's direct criticism bellowed at her, "How dare you?..."

Aeon had enough of Mia who didn't learn it yet, he grabbed her hand and pulled her aside, "Shut up, Mia. If you don't want to lose this movie too, you better apologize to her right now and go to your make up room."

Mia misunderstood his annoyance to his adoration towards the pretty lady. She shrugged his hands away forgetting she was behaving a meek lady in front of Aeon for more than four days.

Aarvi who had paused saw Mia strode to her in immense confidence. "You think I am not fit for the role, I will prove to you there is none best for this role. Do you dare to accept defeat then?"

"MIA," Aeon grunted.

However, Aarvi wanted some entertainment before her work so she gestured her hand towards the shooting set, "Sure."

Aeon couldn't understand why he is always powerless around Aarvi but had no choice but to follow her chiding the haughty queen who was walking with her head held up high.

Esme whispered to ask Aarvi, "Are you going to act? Director Harmon will go crazy to poach you." Aeon Harmon prioritized talent over the background so Esme was sure Aeon wouldn't mind filming from the beginning if he sees Aarvi in action.

Aarvi just smiled at Esme but spoke to Dax who was sneakily hearing them and asked, [Dum Dum, if you are acting, video call me fast… The screen is broken, right? How about you ask your bodyguards to record?]

"Bye Dax." She uttered and long pressed the power button of her phone to switch off looking at the dark nonworking screen.

She looked around and cued with her hand to bring the men to her sight. As soon as her eyes got the sight of a man in a black suit, she threw her mobile aiming accurately saying, "Destroy." Repairing the mobile doesn't come into question because of confidential data.

Aarvi responded to Esme, "Let's have some fun."

Esme giggled and changed the subject, "You are President Rivas's girlfriend now, right?" Without waiting for a response, she continued to speak happily, "I saw you two in Mount Cornet…"

Aeon just hoped Mia shouldn't make a fool of herself and create one more trouble for him....
