The Traps of Black Swan

Chapter 362 - Domestic Violence



Looking at Eliza still in the relationship bearing Leon's unreasonable anger, Aarvi didn't know if she should call Eliza strong or weak.

Living every day in fear isn't easy.

Closing the laptop that was on Aaron's lap, she tugged Aaron's sleeves, "Do you know any lady Psychologist? Eliza Lane seriously needs help, she has to understand she is in an abusive relationship."

She had endured for far too long for her parents to change but they hadn't, looking at Eliza still living in hope of her life might get well, Aarvi had this day planned. 

It wasn't only to save Eliza but also to bring the true color of Leon out. If the days follow up, Aarvi knows Leon will vent all his frustration on Eliza who is innocent and also a victim of Leon's ill behavior.

Looking at the knitted brows of Aarvi, Aaron pressed his lips on her forehead. Stunned, her brows smoothened as he wanted before he responded, "I don't know anybody personally. I will recommend you one by night or morning."

Aarvi hummed, still smiling for the peck on her forehead. 

Aaron asked her opinion as she shoved the laptop away, "What if Eliza Lane doing all of it so that she could be a rich mistress (Mrs./Madam) of the household or is in love with Leon Harmon?"

In that case, no psychologist could help her out. So Aarvi was just wasting her emotions and time on the wrong person.

Aarvi shook her head while thinking of the possibility, "As far as I can understand her and Leon's relationship if Eliza Lane really wanted to be a rich family daughter-in-law she had many matches due to her looks."

Aaron hadn't done a deep investigation of their relationship and importantly he never thought of saving somebody as Aarvi cared. He just nodded in response to be a listener.

Aarvi continued her deduction, "If she wanted to live a life of the rich, she could have asked for divorce with huge alimony. With such huge assets and looks, she won't lack for suitors."

Aaron nodded remembering Leon is a person who displays to the world he is an ideal man in every relationship but in reality, he was the epitome of self-obsession. 

Leon cared about none but himself. He does things if he has any gain from it, including his fake affection for his both brothers.

Aarvi continued with the next point, "I am not sure if Eliza loved him or still loves him or never loves. Even if she loves Leon Harmon and being empathetic due to his impotence, she should understand that she is a victim of the domestic violation."

Being educated, Aarvi knew how some women had to go through domestic violence physically, mentally, and sometimes economically. Some lack the awareness to stand against it, some endure it for the fear of society and so don't get the chance to voice it by being oppressed.

She can't save a lot, she hoped she could at least save one who she knows.

Aaron could feel how much she despises the men who use their relationship to abuse their own wives.

Aarvi continued with her different ways of reasoning, "If she thinks Leon's impotence is the reason behind his behavior then she should understand he is a mental retard person in need of hospitalization."

Even if Aarvi watches people beating Leon into pulp, she won't help him but ask them to go for another round to beat him to death.

"If she loves him, what could be more horrible than suffering by the hands of her love? She should still walk out of that hellish life." She concluded grimly.

Aaron faintly smiled, wrapping his arm around her waist, he pulled her closer, "My little wife is always right."

Looking at his adoring gaze, Aarvi: "..."

Could she facepalm herself? 

At the other end, Leon and Eliza looked like a perfect couple but there was small oddness that caught the eyes of reporters. So they didn't only take the pictures of the couple but Leon's hand wrapped in the medical gauze.

Right after the couple posed for the picture, the questions were innumerable from all sides. Yet Eliza had a faint smile looking at the reports while Leon did the same but he was cursing them in mind for asking about the injury instead of engagement, business relationship with Dawson, and his plans in the banquet hall.

He lied without blinking, "I was a little clumsy while cooking for my wife. It's all worth it if it's for my wife." His eyes shifted to Eliza with a content smile and earned a shy smile from his wife which was fake in reality.

Anyway, the reporters took the pictures of Eliza blushing looking at Leon. After general questions, the couple entered the hotel and went towards the banquet hall led by Dylan who was totally used to such events.

Shawn was near the stage, glanced at Leon entering the hall. He was thrilled by Aarvi's plan, he couldn't believe the man who had canceled the event attended right after Aarvi acted behind the scenes.

Shawn pitied the man who was playing on the fingertips of his Little Heart without aware. He definitely looked forward to the day Leon realizes 'Ava Kelly' was controlling all his movements and became afraid to leave his house. Even in that case, Shawn believed it would still be Aarvi's mind-blowing plan controlling him.

Megan bid the socialite who went up to greet her and saw his son hiding his excitement. "What's up with my son? Did you find somebody of your like?"

Shawn shrugged it off and asked a question when his father took a seat, "Tell me, how will you guys react if you know a woman is a victim of domestic violence, silently enduring for many years?"

Megan and Karsen frowned hearing it. After a few seconds of gathering the thoughts, Megan responded first, "It's a serious offense and unfortunately there are numerous victims going through it."

Karsen followed by when Megan paused, "Even if we want to help such victims Unless the victim cooperates, we can't do anything in this regard."

Megan hummed in affirmation, "We have to empower the victim against domestic violence, then we can provide help in many ways without having to be there in person."

Shawn nodded as though he was just trying to know their view but Karsen scrutinizing gaze knew well there is a reason behind Shawn's sudden pick of the topic.

Shawn messaged Dax after flashing an assured smile to his mother who was at the edge of getting worried. [Bro, the prey is in. Where are you?]

At the hotel entrance, a black Bugatti Chiron entered the gate taking away the attention from the guests who were on the red carpet. The frequent gasps were heard for having the chance to look at the car.

The car enthusiasts were quick to identify it was a brand new model Bugatti Chiron which was still hard to get on hands. Hence everyone's eyes peeled on the car which was proudly making its appearance.

Indeed, the Mirage banquet is a show of the rich. But for some, it is a step to prove their real worth and the long way they walked to achieve their goal.
