Alex noticed Aarvi changing her accent, she was so fluent that it felt like she was a different person. Her words sounded professional with a hint of menace towards the other person.

"Hey." Her short greet sounded in the car.

Alex noticed the corner of her lips arc slightly before settling hearing to the other end. He could sense the surprise on the other end. He somehow guessed they weren't Aarvi's team but a foreigner.

"Yeah sure. Let's talk business. Market manipulation? Harmon Industries." She ordered.

Alex knew Aarvi is Twyla who was a genius in reading the future market. But he hadn't expected her to be in contact with the people who manipulate the stock market as they want.

He was expecting Aarvi would drop the share price of Harmon Industries but he was shocked to hear, "Rise it, 4% daily for a week."

Excluding Sunday and Saturday, five days of rising. Means 20%. That was huge. Alex didn't know about the Stock market so he stayed quiet other than knowing her actions were favoring Leon. It will earn him more.

"That's my business." Aarvi's cold words rang in the car before she spoke about the deal price.

Alex heard her and realized she was the best negotiator and spent a few million for a risky deal. But, still, she was paying from her pocket.

Is Leon worth that money? Alex doubted.

Aarvi hung up the call and saw Alex confused. "Speak." She said as the traffic didn't seem to free anytime soon.

Alex scratched his head before asking, "Young Madam, why are you spending your money to make Leon earn more?" His voice was full of uncertainty.historical

Aarvi thought about how to answer her plan in simple words before she nodded to herself and turned to him, "Let's say you are at the first step of the staircase trying to reach the top. How do you feel if you fall from there? And what will you do next?"

Alex answered her question to understand her plan, "I might not feel the pain, I will get up and climb the steps."

Aarvi nodded, "You will go to the second step and fall again. Then?"

"A tinge of pain."

What about the third?"

"A little more."

Aarvi nodded, "You will have the power and strength to get up and climb. So what if I take you to the top and push you down immediately?"

Alex was about to say he might break his leg and get admitted to the hospital that will need a long treatment. However, he understood what she was doing with Leon.

She was planning to make Leon happy, giving him a taste of success. When she pushes him down, he won't have the power and strength to stand back.

Whereas Leon was just trying to push Rivas and Skylar from the first or second step when she was planning to push him to the bottomless hole.

"You are vic- incredible." Alex bit his tongue looking away.

Aarvi completed the word he was afraid to say, "I am vicious." She never denied it.

Alex awkwardly smiled but stayed quiet.

When her account Twyla unexpectedly made known to the world, she hadn't revealed it was her but the hackers were able to get her and the stock market manipulation teams and a few companies had reached her to work with them. She had denied each one, however, they had given her the card to contact them any day if she wanted to make money overnight. Well, she played well all the time. To teach Leon, she used her old connection, contacted them, gave a good deal that will bring them profit.

"Technically, it's my money but profiting from Harmon Industries." She had invested her money in Harmon Industries to gain huge profits. She just merged her business skills with her game against Leon, " So spending a few pennies on him."

Alex thought he understood at least a little about the stock market. He was repeating it in his mind, while Aarvi was taking care of other means that would help her hit better stock price for Harmon Industries.

Alex asked in shock when she ended another call, "Young Madam, do you have another company?" The shock was written all over her face.

Aarvi shook her head at his sudden excited voice, "I have a team who helps a group of public and guides them to invest in companies and informs them when they will have to sell it." She will die if she opens another company. Now the general public will start buying the stock and they would sell at a profit before Aarvi kicks Leon down the throne.

However, Aarvi didn't explain to Alex that Leon won't be happy in this period. He will be panicked to know how the stock price is steadily increasing. He will easily guess by tomorrow's end that somebody is playing with his company stocks. Aarvi being Twyla, Leon will understand it's her who is attacking him. Yet he couldn't stop the consequences taking whatever precaution he might think of.

At most he will try to attack Skylar. Well, Dax was ready to show him Skylar wasn't going to fall by the attacks. Skylar and their competent teams are ready to face the problems. It's just a matter of a week.

What Aarvi was concerned about was Leon killing innocent people. She can't go around protecting every citizen.

Talk of innocent life, a loud piercing the silence in the car. Aarvi turned behind hearing the ambulance siren. Alex who checked on the rearview mirror heard Aarvi instruct, "Alex, make way."

A man who came to ask them to move bowed to them before running to the other cars.

Alex rolled the window down and the duo heard the man pleading with other car drivers, "Please give some way for the ambulance. My wife is in labor pain. Please.."

The man was practically begging the drivers of center and right lane vehicles so that they could make way for the ambulance. His concern and worry were apparent on his face and one could see he was also beaten by somebody and his face was stained with tears.

Aarvi unknowingly thought about her parents who wanted her dead. Here the father was desperate to save his child. Aarvi started to worry about the baby in the womb, feeling ludicrous about how fate plays in everyone's life.

The heinous reality was only two out of ten were moving their car away on their own accord, a few moved listening to the man and the rest were cursing the father, making the annoying face and a car even tried to take the chance to skip the traffic with the ambulance.

Aarvi turned to Alex to instruct him to keep her actions a secret from Aaron so that he doesn't worry about her. However, Alex accurately read her thoughts, seeing the lines of worry which were rare on her face. "I will call the team for help."

Aarvi nodded and got out of the car with Alex. Not many know of her presence in Coasta so reaching Leon's ears would take time. Yet, Leon had no plans to kill her.

Aarvi ran over to the ambulance and knocked on the back door, hoping she could be of some help to the father and mother to save the baby.
