Chapter 742 - Controlling Us



"Leon Harmon has kidnapped my parents. I-I can\'t find them…" Eliza\'s tears finally rolled out that she was holding back for a long time.

A hush fell over in the courtroom. Aarvi had no clue about it either. So her gaze shifted to Dylan who was in the witness box. He is the one who could bring Leon\'s words to action.

As far as she was aware and the results of her plans, she had managed to hospitalize Leon\'s minions. If they were discharged, they should be recuperating. She didn\'t get any news mentioning Leon taking action behind the bars.

There was still a team that was untouched. That team was busy exporting illegal weapons to a different country through the Coasta port. She had informed Nico Burton. So she could only doubt Dylan Harmon.

Leon scowled at Eliza, "I didn\'t do anything." There was desperation in his tone.

Aarvi\'s attention shifted to Leon. The latter turned to her and blamed her, "You did this to trap me, didn\'t you?"

Aarvi: "..."

\'Thud, thud, thud…\'

Judge: "Silence… Silence."

Eliza looked at Leon, she strode to him, clenching her teeth, tears rolling down her cheeks. She had thought he would do nothing and behave. But she was wrong.

\'Pak, Pak, Pak…\' 

Although her strength wasn\'t enough to knock him out, Eliza slapped Leon, right and left, and repeated. 

The cops who should have separated them immediately purposefully let her beat Leon as the latter\'s hands were cuffed.

Aarvi crossed her arms as she leaned on the backrest of the chair, "I don\'t think Leon has a hand in this." Somebody is trying to put blame on Leon so that he could stay in prison forever. Perhaps, sentence him to death.

Her guess was President Merton.

Aaron heard Aarvi. Leon wouldn\'t be a fool to cause a new ruckus so what she said made sense. Aaron recalled the attack on them at the hospital. The fake attack could be to enrage them against Leon. However, Aaron still couldn\'t trust Dylan. He was adopted and mistreated by Leon, he could be the worst enemy of Leon.

Dylan knows Aarvi wouldn\'t let Leon live peacefully. If he acts on his own, Aarvi could destroy him too. So would Dylan dare to do that? Or else who is Leon\'s enemy?

It took another five minutes to bring the court in order. The judge seemed to be fed up. He ordered Eliza to speak in the witness box.

Eliza started revealing everything she was enduring for Leon, "I- I got this letter in the morning to stop me from coming here. I went to look for my parents and sister but they were nowhere." She pointed her hand at Leon whose face was swollen and was burning in rage, "He-he wanted to shut my mouth. He-he will kill them, help me find them, please…" She burst into tears and slumped on the floor.

Aarvi looked at Sean to ask him to go to Eliza. Nonetheless, he was already running up to her. "Sil, why didn\'t you tell us in the home?" He hugged her and brushed her back.

Eliza stood back stronger than anybody expected, she stood up and sniffled as she gave whatever she brought in her handbag, "T-this wasn\'t the first time. He threatened me many times to make me quiet. He was beating me again and again." They were receipts of medication given for her wounds. 

Then she continued, "He had relationships with many women in the beginning, and then he became impotent. Whenever anybody was asking us about having a child, he used to beat me to vent his frustration. These are the medical conditions of Leon." She handed many more papers to Nikun in a hurry as if she would lose her parents if she was even a second late.

On the way to the court without finding her parents, Eliza knew she had put an end to Leon. So she went to the bank where Leon keeps his medical papers safe due to privacy and to store them for further treatment of his impotency

For another ten minutes, Eliza blurted out everything she could tell about Leon and cried asking for help to find her parents and let her off from the marriage.

Divorce initiation - Checked.

James was so overwhelmed that he just sat trying to mull over each accusation. He knew everything couldn\'t be solved in a day. He doubted if he could fight for his client but he cannot give up. Giving up on his client meant giving up on his career.

At the end of the two hours long session, Justice Rowlatt had to take a break to sort the evidence and to give a proper statement for further process. 

Since Leon kept saying he didn\'t know anything and he didn\'t do anything, Rowlatt asked the cops to find the Lane family immediately. With the cops, Aarvi\'s team added in and Aaron\'s team provided some assistance, the search for the Lane family started. If something happens to the Lane family, Aarvi was sure Eliza would blame her instead of Leon. And that would pull Aarvi\'s past into the case. There were still many uncertainties.

--- During break time ---

Aarvi watched Eliza with Elder Harmon, Aeon, and Sean. Although Eliza didn\'t get sincere love and respect from her husband, she earned another family, who was ready to embrace her when she was down.

Shawn supported his elbow on Aarvi\'s shoulder. He was in a great mood as her plans were splendidly playing better than ever. He humored, watching two brothers, "Little Heart, just imagine, Bro isn\'t in your life. If you have to choose one among two brothers, who will you choose?"

"None." Her response was instant and crisp. 

Shawn hissed shaking his head, "I am saying if."

Aarvi turned to him and squinted her eyes, "Really? Then answer me first. Considering Ronron isn\'t there and you have to choose me or Shea to get married, who will you choose?"

Shawn\'s lips twitched uncontrollably. He clearly knew she had a reason to ask that question so he lied, "Of course you."

"Liar." Aarvi knew better than Shawn himself, he sees her like a younger sister. He could go any length to protect her but having different kinds of feelings for her was impossible.

Shawn snorted and tried to run away, but Aarvi\'s hand reached his blazer and pulled him back. "When did you become a jerk?" For mistreating Shea when she was pouring her heart out. She knew Shawn who politely rejects how annoyed he might be with the girl.

Shawn glared at his friend who didn\'t flinch. Aarvi knew him but Shea. So he didn\'t blame Aarvi for calling him a jerk. He proposed living together with Shea because Shea was scared of dating and commitment. She was afraid of affecting her studies and enduring heartbreaks. So he was giving her a chance to know one could manage work and have a love life. Whether she chooses to follow him depends on her.

He shrugged without explaining, "She might live with me from today, Little Heart." He patted her head like an owner of a pet and went towards his brother. Well, he was at the shorter end of their relationship. Shea had complete freedom to walk away from him without a mutual decision. He hoped they won\'t regret taking this path.

\'Live with him? Are they together now?\' Aarvi tried to discern something that\'s out of her scope. She was trying to understand Shea and Shawn but failed. She wanted Aaron to solve it for her.

She was going to her husband when her mobile vibrated in the pockets of her trousers. Her head tilted looking at \'Apple Pie\' on the screen. She answered the call in surprise, "Apple Pie, how did you know there is a break?" She sounded lively and happy, ready to report to him about the developments of their plans

Ignoring her words, Zain alerted her in a warning tone, "Pumpkin, Dylan Harmon is controlling us and we don\'t even know that." 

Aarvi: "...."
