The Traps of Black Swan

Chapter 261 - Tia Has A Boyfriend?

Around eight in the morning, Aarvi had to force herself to leave the bed so that Aaron doesn't have to work late in the night after returning to the Avron mansion from their date evening. 

Thinking about their date, her lips arced up, and also hoped Aaron could enjoy and relax after the long day.

Aarvi was still napping when Aaron checked the video sent by Zain. It was a video when Aarvi went to Hays International. Aarvi heard Vance and Leon's voice, she too had the same doubt as Shawn. 

Was Vance Hays believing in her strength or was he provoking Leon against her?

Anyhow, the man next to her felt like Vance might be in love with Aarvi, especially after seeing his gaze as soon as it fell on Aarvi. It felt more like adoration than admiration.

What surprised him was Vance didn't trust in Aarvi's strength due to the Rivas family with her but her own strength hence Vance didn't care to report about them to Leon Harmon.

Yeah, Aaron wasn't least affected by Vance's feelings for his Cupcake. They are too far from his reach.

Aarvi mumbled groggily, "I can play Leon with this video, let's brush and fill out stomach."

...

After five minutes, in the bathroom,

Aaron was wordless when she leaned on him and dozed off holding her toothbrush while brushing her teeth.

"What time did you come to the bed?" He asked but met with silence. He really wanted to learn how she could sleep leaning on him while standing.

He is also aware she never lets her guard down except around him and tries to relax her over-exerted brain. Hence her body naturally craves more rest around him.

Holding her in his embrace with an arm around her, he quickly brushed his teeth as he realized it was their first time brushing together and sharing the bathroom but his Cupcake is... asleep. 

Removing the toothbrush out of her mouth, he washed her face with cold water and heard her whine feeling less sleepy and more awake, "Aaron Rivas, you are heartless." She wanted to snuggle in his arms and catch more sleep.

Aaron flicked on her head and held her chin forcing her to open her mouth. He was about to brush her teeth but she snatched the toothbrush, "Do I look like a two-year-old? Aaron, you are unbelievable." She facepalmed and started brushing. 

She felt like he was spoiling her too much. A cold run down her spine imagining herself behaving like a haughty queen ordering everyone around. 

'No, no, Aarvi Evans, you should never ever turn like that.' She ordered to herself.

Aaron didn't remark on it. 'Does she have to be two years?' He shrugged off and kissed her head on the hair slowly trying to cajole her.

Aarvi noticed he was slightly gloomy, unlike how he always leaves her speechless with his words. "What's wrong?" She asked unclearly due to foam in her mouth.

Aaron knows she will understand but he still had two minds, "There is a scheduled surgery in the noon and another critical surgery came up in the evening. I got the message in the morning."

He paused and saw her nod. Aarvi knew he wasn't reporting her but there was something more to it so she waited for him to finish watching him through the mirror.

"The operation might take too long and… We can't go on a date today." He felt bad to ditch their date evening when she was completely free and planned a week full of dates to spend time with him. He can let others handle the first one but the second one was critical.

Aarvi frowned by hearing him. Rinsing her mouth with water, she dabbed the towel on her lips before turning to face Aaron. 

Aaron almost thought she was angry for changing their plans without asking her. He had given complete independence to the chief of the Cardiology department to call him in an emergency situation.

The operation was decided in the early morning due to a patient's unresponsive heart to the medication that was worsening the health condition of the heart.

However, Aarvi held his ear and pulled it hard, "Doctor Rivas, don't forget you are a doctor. Your primary job is to save people. Our date isn't important, we can have fun any other day. You don't dare think as I am going to get mad or stop you from doing your work." 

As much as he supports her in everything, she will obviously support him. He is a doctor hence she is alive, she will never stop him from saving others' lives.

She was leaving his ear but remembered something more and pulled it harder, "Yes, I will get mad if you dare to skip meals and overwork yourself."

Aaron rubbed his bright red ear watching her squinted eyes, damn, he felt like a wife bullying her careless husband. Shouldn't her care be shown with sweet words?

A doctor needs a supportive companion because they might have to attend an emergency situation anytime. And he has an over-supportive companion.

He copied his Cupcake's style and wobbled his head to melt her negligible anger, "Sure, President. Evans."

Aarvi giggled before kissing his cheek standing on her toes, "Then don't worry about the office work. Since I am free, I will try to unload your work. You go directly to the hospital."

Now, he again felt terrible. Dax had forced her to take some rest but his work put her in work.

She was just trying to help him but seeing his face fall, she didn't know what else to do other than, she cupped his face pecked on his lips, "I am proud of my Dr. Rivas."

Then she left the bathroom flashing him a sweet smile.

Aaron's lips faintly arced up looking at her backward making cute faces. Their career goal was always simple and different, he wanted to treat the illness of people and she wanted to provide for the people. He became a doctor and she became a businesswoman. Now, they are trying to excel in their own field.

Letting Aaron shower, Aarvi went out of the bedroom to cook something light for Aaron but her gaze landed on Shawn who was munching popcorn early in the morning.

She followed his line of sight and her eyes ended up on the door of the master bedroom. She realized Dax and Tia weren't out yet.

Shawn noticed Aarvi and waved his hand, "Little Heart, Little Heart, come here…"

Shawn stood up and made her sit on the armchair, then he sat on the arm of the same chair. Handing her the big popcorn bowl, he revealed it in amusement, like a child revealing a mystery, "They aren't out yet."

Aarvi: "..."

Shawn continued and asked, "What if Tia won't agree to be his girlfriend? Will he force her?"

Aarvi: "..."

Dax was someone who overbearingly orders and makes things in his way until things fall in place. 

What they were assured was Dax won't play with Tia and he won't compel her to date him if she is really against the relationship. 

Aarvi asked in dilemma, "Does Tia have a boyfriend or a crush?"

Both looked at each other then Shawn smacked her head and blamed her, "Why didn't you think of it yesterday? I thought you knew about her personal life."

Their curiosity morphed to tense and became edgy.
