Leon smirked mockingly, "Do you think only you have the money and connection? You are kids in the business." He scoffed.

He was right. Leon was in the business world from the age of twenty. He was known to the country for taking risky decisions and succeeding. Hence people admired this man, gave him fame, made him an idol.

In comparison, these three might not be so good but they built Skylar from very scratch. Whereas Leon had everything ready on his plate. They didn't fall behind Leon if they compared to Leon's younger self.

Of course, The current Leon in the industry for nearly fifteen years, and Aarvi was in the field for three years in which she was in a vegetative state for nine months. Yeah, she was a kid in the industry and there was more to learn.

.

"I guess prodigy fails too," Aarvi remarked, pointing to the signing ceremony.

Leon fished his mobile out and reverted her dialogue to her, "Keep your eyes peeled on the screen, Little Lamb." He dialed somebody as he continued, "I am far unreachable than you think." His dark voice was cold, silencing the three friends.

The three looked at each other. Not because of fear but speechlessness. Leon still didn't understand how Aarvi plays. If she had planned for so many days, wouldn't she have different traps to every possible solution Leon could come up with?

Shawn controlled laughing looking at Aarvi trying to peel her eyes wide open and look at the screen. If Leon sees her face, probably he will understand she was making funny faces instead of being afraid. Perhaps, that would have alarmed Leon. Tsk.

Aarvi had already told them all her plans so they knew what was going to happen. They played along with her and stayed silent, pitying Leon Harmon.

Leon instructed the other end, "Do it now." Since the market manipulators were going to sell all the shares they bought during the whole week, Leon had instructed his team to keep track of the stocks which were being bought in large numbers.

The amount was in hundreds of millions, it was indeed huge. However, Leon had lots of black money he wanted to turn white. Now Aarvi gave him a chance to use it. If he buys all the stocks she sells, the Harmon Industries price won't fall, there won't be a market crash and he will not be answerable to anybody.

Leon was very much confident it was Aarvi's attack and he could win on her, this time. However, he didn't know making more money while revenge was just a side business. It wasn't her main goal. And he also forgot she was Twyla, not just a random investor or a timepass businesswoman.

While watching the screen, Leon kept his eyes on the three friends. Dax often frowned, typed something, clicked on something, and cussed in a low breath. Shawn and Aarvi were busy annoying the market changes and they were good at it.

Dax took care of Aarvi's account to sell the Harmon shares at regular intervals. The manipulators were doing their work and the small investment group Aarvi controls, sold their shares first.

Since the acquisition news was far and wide, there were more buyers. Due to Leon's team bidding as soon as they were quoting, there was a huge fight going on between the buyers and sellers.

The nerve-wracking lasted ten minutes, extended to fifteen, and finally stopped at the ninth minute. In the whole time, the market fluctuated by a few pennies.

Dax breathed out loudly and leaned back on the chair, "That was intense, Dum Dum." He took the tissue from her hand and dabbed it on his forehead.

Since the whole amount wasn't deposited to Aarvi's account, Dax calculated everything and turned the screen to Aarvi. The latter looked at the numbers and announced, "A new one will be at your doors soon." Leon had destroyed Dax's favorite car so she would use Leon's money to buy Dax's car.

Shawn slapped his palm on the table, "That's not fair, Little Heart. If I knew it, I would have done that job."

Aarvi kept her forearm on Shawn's shoulder and placated the prince, "He gets a car, you have a sister-in-law. Should we swap?"

"I need sugar Mommy. I will give him the car." Dax announced, making her laugh.

Leon: "..."

They were proving they were kids. He should gloat but he understood he was missing something. The decision taken in anger would never be right.

As though they remembered Leon suddenly, the three stood up and gave a round of applause to Leon. They didn't fail to add admiration words, that were absolutely fake.

"President Harmon, you are a true inspiration."historical

"Every young person should learn from you, President Harmon."

"Yeah, how spontaneous you were, President Harmon."

"You just evaded the big trouble at the click of your fingers."

"You are truly amazing, President Harmon. Would you mind taking an apprentice?"

"There would be a lot to learn from you. I guess we need years."

The mockery of three erupted, Leon's irritation back, even wilder than before. "Shut up.." He ruined her plan to drop Harmon Industries' price. Then should they panic, regret, be sad, and accept defeat? Why things weren't going as they should have?

"Cut the crap." He roared again.

The employees who had paused, without understanding why the three friends were admiring the wrong man so much, jerked at Leon's voice.

The three friends shrugged their shoulders together and behaved like kids again, "I didn't know we would get scolded for complimenting." Aarvi's sulking voice sounded.

"People are not good, Dum Dum, don't be sad." Dax scorned Leon.

Shawn signaled Leon to take a seat, "Let me explain. Why don't you sip some water, President Harmon?" He unexpectedly sounded too polite and respectful.

Leon neither sat nor took the water bottle. He found these three annoying to the bones. Compared to three friends, Sean seemed to be a lot better to handle.

"Never mind," Shawn added as he went near the smart television which was showing the Harmon Price saturating.

Aarvi and Dax got busy choosing which restaurant to go to for the celebration.

Shawn spoke like a lecturer teaching to his obedient student, "First and foremost, this wasn't an attack. Little Heart just chose to panic you and she succeeded."

Leon thought back to the day. Yeah, he was panicked. But what does he mean by it wasn't an attack? "Come to the point."

Shawn lifted his hand pretending to be a teacher, "If you are not interested in my class, you could leave."

'Pfft,' Aarvi and Dax burst into laughter recalling one of their first-year lecturers who used to repeat that dialogue and end up having a few students in his class.

Leon wanted to beat them first and then walk out. He grabbed the water bottle and threw it at Shawn for making fun of him. Shawn caught it easily, "Thank you for the water." He unscrewed it and sipped the water.

Shawn did agree that there was satisfaction in irritating Leon rather than beating somebody or Leon. "Coming to the point."

Shawn wrote 100 on the whiteboard and looked at seething Leon. "Let's assume we had 100 shares and the buyers' capacity is only 50. If we try to sell it more than capacity, the price of the shares drops.

Only 50 shares get the market price, whereas the remaining 50 will be sold at a lower price. We might not be able to get the high price for all the shares or even face losses.

Since your team immediately bought the shares we tried to sell, we got a higher and better price."

Leon couldn't believe he fell for the trick. He practically gave money to her.
