The Traps of the Black Swan

17

Ruby Jane wanted to play safely in her dangerous game but Aeon Harmon never betrays his friends for the third person. He grounded his teeth and slammed his hands on the table loathing her confidence, "Who the f**k do you think you are? You might be President in your office, not here. Get out."

Ruby Jane smirked indifferently but she hates how frequently he uses f words to shut her. Even though her smile was enticing, Aeon just couldn't read what was going on in her head.

She didn't care what he said, "Two choices! Fire him or I will pull you down both. I don't think you would like to see Amiah Entertainment in other's hands." The right pressure to tame him even though he was fuming. Aria knew well to press his nerves at the perfect time.

Seeing him glaring, Ruby Jane ignored him as if he didn't matter to her. She placed an envelope in front of him, "Do or die." Simple as that.

He sounded furious, "You-" Aeon pointed his finger at her but her faint smile and raised brows anticipating for him to continue were enough to shut his lips. His voice toned down unknowingly while saying, "I will never play by your terms."

She patiently took her mobile saying, "Alright, I will dump you from your company."

She patiently swiped on contact named Apple Pie and put it on speaker purposefully.

[Pumpkin, any problem at Amiah?]

Ruby Jane straight asked, "How long will it take for us to buy the max shares except Aeon Harmon's?"

Aeon and Ruby Jane both heard Zain snicker, [Is that loser acting high and mighty?...]

Aeon clenched his fist hearing the other end calling him a loser. He so wished to knock her on the table and pull the other man out and teach him a lesson.

"... Pumpkin, it isn't like you lack money and 'Money talks'. Say yes, you will get the company share papers in three hours maximum. The paperwork can be done later."

Ruby Jane who was watching Aeon saw his eyes widened. Seeing them talking about millions worth shares as a piece of toy infuriated him and he hung up the call thinking she will say yes and he will forever lose his company.

To become a lead shareholder, he needs money and he doesn't have it. So if he is the president, he could earn and have his company too. "I need a valid reason to fire him."

"Aeon Harmon, don't you dare touch my things without my permission. This is the last warning. Know your goddam limits."

Aeon spat back instantly, "You are the one sitting in my office without my permission. How dare you warn me?"

Pea Brained man! Ruby Jane stood up to leave without a word but her beautiful smile dangerously alarmed him

Aeon didn't want to accept but he knew Skylar is perfect for his company. It was just he couldn't stand her. It irritates him to accept that he feels inferior in front of her and her mysterious smiles always distract him. "Fine. I will listen to you."

She felt it's too much drama with Aeon. She pointed to the envelope, "Sign and prove."

Having no choice, Aeon signed the papers and left his friend to save the company. He had to go out after hearing her, "Jayce..."

Jayce stood up and asked frantically, "Who is the new shareholder? Why is he having bodyguards? What is going on?"

"You are fired. Pack your things, collect the remaining payment from the finance department, and leave."

Jayce wasn't sure how to describe his feeling when his overflowing benefits were vanishing just like that. His life of luxury depends on being around Aeon. If he loses his place, Seungri would toss him away like a piece of muck.
