The Traps of Black Swan

Chapter 751 - Siran Enfield



In the interrogation room which had become a new home for Leon. Many questioned him and he most of the time ignored them all. Say anything, they were accusing him so he preferred silence by playing deaf and dumb.

He had closed his eyes, thinking how he could change his situation. The only option he was getting was escaping from prison and fleeing from the country. He could return after a few years in a new name and take revenge on Aarvi. That's the most feasible solution he found as James was losing against Nikun who was with every counter as if those were simple textbook questions.

While he was daydreaming with closed eyes he heard a knock on the door. Leon didn't open his eyes and heard the sound of shoes closing near, the chair jarred against the floor. He heard a long sigh before the tongue clicking sound. Leon realized the person couldn't be any cop and opened his eyes. 

His pupils grew large when he saw the middle-aged man. He was a politician at a higher level. He was the person who was trying to take Leon's role of storing and shipping the firearms as it had billions of money. His presence over there was an alarm to Leon. However, he tried to maintain his calmness.

"Looks like Presid… Leon Harmon didn't get the news yet." The politician sneered.

Leon recalled the previous night the consignment was exported. His men said the ship entered international water without a hitch. So he couldn't understand where it went wrong, "What do you mean?" Leon questioned coldly.

The politician pushed his mobile in front of Leon. Leon read the details of the seizure and paled white as a sheet. The goods were worth a few billion, more than that the clients were very dangerous, they wouldn't think twice to kill him. 

Even if he managed to escape, those men would kill him, it might be any country, they wouldn't care. "Who did this?" Leon growled.

The middle-aged man enjoyed Leon's misery as Leon's misery brings him billions of worth of work. He shrugged, "Who did you offend in Country N?" They don't believe in coincidence.

Leon tried to think if Aarvi had any connection in country N, she couldn't but Evans could. So he blamed the Evans family. Leon demanded, "I need to talk to them." He meant the weapon dealers. He couldn't ask anybody else as others had no idea.

The middle age was no magnanimous man to help Leon. So he shifted the topic, "Where is Dylan?" Dylan knew everything about exporting.

Leon's eyes widened in disbelief. "That Bastard. It's definitely him who gave a tip-off to Aarvi or the Evans family." He said it more to himself. He had looked for Dylan in the courtroom but didn't find him anywhere. James had reached for Dylan to dig some details about Aarvi aka Ava Kelly. Dylan's disappearance raised suspicions. 

Leon's plan to send Dylan near Aarvi failed so he couldn't shift the blame as Aarvi and Dylan plotted together to trap him. His many plans were aborted before they began. Now his life was in real danger. Leon wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't wake up after sleeping as those men could destroy the whole police station in the blink of an eye. 

Despite being in a tight spot, Leon snickered without letting the man be smug in front of him, "Count your days, they will come for you next." Leon laughed maliciously.

The middle-aged was worried for a second however he assumed Leon was bluffing. Standing up, "Good luck. Have a wonderful path to hell." He flashed an ugly smile and left.

Leon paced in the interrogation room like a headless chicken. He was no more sure of escaping the prison was a good choice.

In the night, Nico Burton walked out of the arrival gate at Mocon airport. His mobile beeped right after his mobile switched on. He got a message from an unknown number.

Clicking it open, he read the details about a politician without understanding why he needed to read it. Slowly his confusion cleared as he read further and saw a picture of the politician sitting with Leon.

"We need to clean up more." Nico Burton alerted his team when they sat in the military jeep wrangler.

His team members looked at each other and laughed. They weren't sure who his captain found, that person kept sending secret information and their career profile was building faster than they expected.

"Let's go." All cheered, prepared for the next actions.

---------

It was a long night to all. Leon was panicking behind the bars. James Crawford was busy grouping evidence against Aarvi. Zain and Zara were having their intimate night. Hayden's heart was weighed down, craving to speak with his granddaughter. Tia nervously snuggled Dax on a movie date night at Dax's place. Shea and Shawn cooked together bantering with each other till they cuddled on the bed to sleep. Aarvi and Aaron were on the terrace of the school building, dancing in the drizzling night, reminiscing a sweet past, creating new memories to cherish.

Everyone had different hopes and expectations for the new day.

----------

Wednesday, the second court hearing of the case, Aarvi Evans v/s Leon Harmon,

Leon looked nothing like he was famous for. The stubble had grown long, the clothes were wrinkled. He looked tidy enough for the sight, unlike the heir of a rich family. His gaze looked for Dylan who wasn't there. 

His eyes fell on Aarvi who was attentively listening to Nikun. Leon doubted Aarvi secretly handling Dylan, otherwise, why would Dylan disappear without a word or notice.

He looked at James who looked confident and determined like every time. Yet the carefree Nikun always took the lead. Leon wasn't sure who he should blame, Aarvi for having so many details collected and given to Nikun, or James for not winning, for not standing up to his name, a top criminal lawyer.

Justice Rowlatt entered soon and the session started. Since everything was cleared out from Nikun's side, James stood up and requested, "Your honor, I request to question a lady named Siran Enfield."

Aarvi frowned. Siran Enfield was one of her classmates and bridesmaid when Ava Kelly was getting married to Vance Hays.

Leon smirked, now it was time to peel Aarvi's masks.
