Chapter 107 - Out Of The World



The Craft family, a minor business family which raised to fame just by tailing the Harmon family and following Leon Harmon. For any project that Harmons invested, the Craft family would blindly invest a little to keep up their income.

Which ambitious yet wicked businessman wouldn't want to win over the whole business world and stand above all others? Billy Craft, President of Craft Limited, and a friend of Leon Harmon to the world while he plans to crush Leon Harmon internally. A humble businessman to society but a douchebag in real life.

When Leon Harmon proposed a project to him nine years ago with all due respect, Billy had fallen for it thinking of himself as great and elder but became a slave to Leon Harmon under his power. Being stomped by him whenever he wanted, Billy wished to rule over Leon but lagged behind in both intelligence and viciousness. 

To get out of the clutch of Leon Harmon, he needed somebody powerful and unconquerable by Leon, since the Rivas family leaves him out of the account, he had desperately tried to befriend Skylar International. To his surprise, he got a chance to invest in the Mall of Mocon without knowing it was just a tiny trap by Aarvi. Then to his misery, he never got to touch Skylar again.

That gave an ample reason for him to hate Skylar as the latter didn't sound to have a strong background. This chance was used by Leon Harmon, he provoked the mid-forties president to fight for his right at Mall of Mocon just to get the information about the President of Skylar International who is the largest shareholder of Mall of Mocon.

Without realizing he was just a scapegoat, Billy went on and on creating fuss at the board members of Mall of Mocon. Aarvi's little game is just to throw Billy out of the picture before he could taint the Mall of Mocon or Dax's fury reaches the limits.

After a useless meeting in the Mall of Mocon meeting hall on the last floor, Dax yearned to crush Billy Craft who was huffing in anger failing to win on Dax. The latter had to keep his calm because his Dum Dum had promised to squash the bug doing exactly nothing.

Dax was first to leave with his secretary as he was the chairperson of the meeting, and he was followed by Billy Craft who wanted to lunge on Dax and break his head but his ears perked up hearing Dax's secretary secretly mentioning, "CEO Grant, President is in the mall. She will meet you downstairs."

Well, it was an act of secretly delivering the news to Dax and he made sure to keep his voice audible to Billy Craft so that cuttlefish behind them could fall into the trap ready to be deep-fried by... Aarvi?! Nope. She will watch while somebody else does the work.

As planned, Billy didn't only want to see the President of Skylar but to meet and indoctrinate the president in his favor. 'She!?' He was surely shaken than being surprised. 'How could a woman grow so strong? She definitely used unspeakable things.' His legs stopped moving thinking 'Is she an old woman? Or a young woman? The women are easier to handle anyway. If I get her to my hands, I should get Skylar.' He grinned slyly in triumph before anything could happen in his favor.

Dax and his secretary had walked pretty ahead towards the escalator to go downstairs while Billy stood there as though in a daze. Other shareholders or the manager left the meeting hall giving weird gazes at Billy. They never liked to have Billy on the board for uselessly wasting the time without understanding what they say and stubbornly argues with them as a righteous person.

Billy smirked when all left and Dax went downstairs whereas his secretary was confused looking at the weird behavior of his boss. "President..."

Billy cut him off, "Let's go." and quickly barged into the emergency exit that was just a few steps away.

'Thud' Billy slammed the door open in hurry.

"Ahhhh..." A girl shrieked in fear breaking the kiss with her boyfriend.

Billy scoffed glancing at the young couple and he continued to descend the stairs ignoring them as his secretary towed behind after a quick bow to the couple in apology.

On the other end, Dax went downstairs and looked right and left before spotting the beauty walking towards him in high heels donning a black sleeveless plain bodycon dress. Her long hair was in a clean ponytail with a blood-red color on her lips. She was totally simple but undoubtedly a stunning beauty.

'Vampire!' Dax returned the smile that appeared on her face as they covered the distance between them, "My Honey Bun looks boring." He disliked the dress due to its dullness. He usually likes the trendy style she chooses while she goes out with him or Shawn or when she has to spend time in relaxed clothes.

Whereas Aarvi's brows arced looking at his new style. Dax was in a business suit and the difference was, it was a Chinese collar suit style, "Hmmm striking..." He catches the attention of eyes wearing formals or casuals.

"I am pissed off, I need a hug..." Dax started his spoiled behavior to get a hug. After punching his stomach, Aarvi hugged him but started thinking whether oxytocin releases hugging Dax but she didn't feel much changes. 'Why?' She needed to ask Aaron for the answer.

"President Evans!" Dax's secretary greeted her almost like a whisper to avoid anybody hearing him greet her as President.

Dax poked her head seeing her lost in thought without acknowledging his secretary. Aarvi shook her head in mind to remove Aaron and thoughts of him. 'No distraction.'

She nodded at the secretary in response and asked, "Where is President Craft?"

The secretary responded, "I am sure he heard me but he didn't follow us."

Aarvi who knew the complete architecture of the mall peeked behind Dax but there was no President Craft then she smirked, "Dax, look at me. Secretary Sawyer, please check if anybody is peeking at us behind me."

Dax started his acting as Professional CEO, "President Evans, it's pleasure meeting you after such a long time..." She controlled laughing and shook his hand, "I will make sure to keep visiting you and kick your ass if you don't work well, CEO Grant."

Secretary Sawyer opened the file as though he was reading it for her as he responded, "President Evans, you are right. President Craft and his secretary's eyes are on us."

Aarvi nodded in acknowledgment of his words. President Craft had two choices, rush to meet her when she will be talking to Dax or follow her when she parts ways from Dax. The first choice had lighter effects on the plan compared to the second so it was on the right track.

Dax voiced, "This cunning old fox knows I will break his head if I see him outside." Secretary Sawyer too added his remarks, "Any undergraduate could do business better than him."

Aarvi chuckled hearing them causing the Secretary to look at her in amusement. He doesn't even remember seeing her smile, probably three years back. Unknowingly a smile naturally appeared on his face while she spoke, "Dax, do you want his office floors for anything?"

It was a landmark building after all so Dax gave it a thought if Skylar needs any office floors but their own building is massive and phenomenal hence he instantly showed dislike. "I don't want it. Instead, I would like Rivas towers."

Aarvi knew Dax wanted to hear her defend Aaron but she asked cluelessly, "Do you want to sit next to Aaron and work? Amazing, I can keep him company and work alongside you."

'Rivas? Aaron... Aaron Rivas?' Secretary Sawyer analyzed but wasn't surprised as many of their projects have Rivas Industries investments or vice versa and he also knows Shawn, Dax, and Aarvi are the golden trio of University S.

Dax remembered Aaron's stern face and shrugged, "Never mind." He knew well Aaron wasn't just what he shows, a doctor taking the whole business by storm was nothing to be underestimated. He still doesn't know how Aaron had managed to get Aarvi aka Ava during that time. For him, Aaron is like a placid ocean surface with a big current underneath if disturbed.

He asked in curiosity as he didn't know, "What are you going to do now?"

Aarvi grinned mischievously, "Something you will love it."

'Ugh, she never answers me directly.' Dax felt like teaching her how to respond to the questions he asks, "I burn with curiosity every single time."

"Curiosity has its own reason for existing. You will find it out soon." She teased.

Dax didn't ask further due to the Secretary beside him, "Does he know you?" He meant to ask if Billy Craft knows Ava Kelly.

Aarvi hummed but feigned ignorance to it, "I am not showing myself anyway." Right after her, Dax threw his question out of curiosity, "Then how will you manage? He will surely run after you."

Aarvi gave him a quick hug standing on her toes, "Watch me." Then she walked away on the perpendicular hallway. 

On the other end, Billy watched the young girl walking away from Dax and commanded his secretary by pushing him, "That way, run and stop her." as he ran behind his secretary.

Dax and Secretary Sawyer's jaws dropped and eyes widened in shock without believing their own eyesight.

Secretary Sawyer gulped the nonexistent saliva as he commented, "CEO Grant, I am seeing things."

'My Dum Dum is out of the world.' He really looked forward to her further game of how she is going to squash the bug.
