The Traps of Black Swan

Chapter 521 - Suspicious

At Rivas mansion,

Shawn and Shea were going crazed at the arrangements of Aarvi while Megan was admiring and the other three were word struck.

Megan questioned seeing Shawn excited. She had thought he might have known everything, "Didn't you know this before, Shawn?"

"No Mom." Shawn shook his head, "Little Heart only told me to allow the three men to enter the Rivas estate, decorate the place and ask Milo Wen to arrange for the marriage registration."

"I should take her advice when I propose." He mused waving at the two when they looked at them.

Jordan hit his leg with the cane, "Get a girlfriend first." He scolded. "We all had marriage by your age. Look at you dancing like a child." He meant he and his sons were married by twenty-five to their lady love.

Shea was shocked. Now she understood why they all looked so young despite having children in their twenties.

Karsen and Connor were laughing at Shawn who started bantering with Jordan. Soon Shawn got a message from Aarvi and all left with them to the marriage bureau, willingly, excitedly.

At Harmon mansion,

Leon was in the study room when he got picture messages on his phone. He got a call before he could even check the picture so turning on the speaker, he opened the pictures.

[Boss, something's going on at Rivas estates. I have sent you the pictures.]

'Thud.'

Before the voice could end, Leon slapped his mobile on the table looking at the picture in which the light Aircraft was showering the flowers at Rivas estate. And in another picture, three cars were heading out of the estate.

He wasn't dumb, he guessed accurately about the proposal and assumed Aaron must have exorbitantly proposed to Aarvi aka Ava Kelly to impress her. He could guess where they were going but questioned to confirm it.

"Where are they going?" He suppressed his anger that was arousing due to his instincts.

The man on the other end relayed the information they had fetched, [According to the information we got, Secretary of President Rivas is completing the paperwork at the marriage bureau.]

'Bam.'

Leon slapped the white wooden desk, clenching his teeth. He kicked the chair aside and paced shortly, breathing roughly. He wanted Ava Kelly as his body won't react to anybody but her. She was the cure to his impotence.

Leon couldn't stop or attack the Rivas family directly as Aaron would mercilessly strike him and his company. Leon assumed he wasn't afraid of Aaron and he was doing all that to save the project.

"Block the road with some accident. Make them treat the person there. Don't let them reach the marriage bureau." He ordered his men and gnashed his teeth.

[Yes Boss.] The man answered and the call ended.

Leon knew it wasn't enough to stop her. He has to find a way to keep her occupied with lots of worries.

Pacing hurriedly in the office, Leon came up with numerous plans but they couldn't give immediate results that could stop her.

However, he forgot, if not today, they would get married on another day. Due to all his wistful wishes, he was planning out.

He grabbed his mobile and called a number, As soon as the call was answered, "Kidnap both right away."

[Yes Boss] The response came immediately before the call ended.

He again made a few calls before he sat with Aarvi's number he had got from Tia's mobile.

"Ava Kelly." He uttered through his teeth.

----

Unaware of the developments, Aaron was over the moon looking at his wife-to-be so happy and excited to register their marriage. 

Still, a few days back, the thought of it was making her uneasy and now, it was contrasting. He knew it wasn't because of remembering the past, the past just added more shine to her excitement.

He pushed the brakes at the none traffic signal area. They weren't even half away from the bureau. Aarvi was about to get off, Aaron held her hand.

The aircraft at the mansion was a little big event that could be captured from a far distance. Even if he was being overly sensitive, he didn't want to risk her life.

"What's up?" Aarvi cocked her head seeing him become serious.

Aaron shook his head, and teased her whilst taking his mobile, "I can't risk having many love rivals."

Her man won't get tired of complimenting directly and indirectly. "Then I suggest you become my stay-at-home husband. You attract lots of beautiful women and pretty little girls."

Aaron dropped a message in the family group asking them to stay seated in the car. Hearing her, he readily nodded, "Then Love, you should work from home. Let's not step out of the bed."

'Shameless man.' Aarvi squinted her eyes.

Aaron continued in his hypnotic tone, gazing into her eyes, "You work from home, I will work hard in the home."

Aarvi nodded, being cool about his words, "I think we should take a U-turn over there." She meant no marriage, they should return home however her face had betrayed her.

Aaron hid his smirk and acted innocent, "Love, what's the hurry. I thought we should take some time to work hard. If you want…"

Aarvi's hand flew to his lips and hissed, "Aaron Rivas, can't you flirt without being shameless. And… don't put on this face." His innocent face was even more tempting.

Aaron pulled her hand down and continued his act, "When did baking cupcakes become shameless? I was thinking of baking chocolate cream-filled, pink lemon, carrot, mocha, cookie cream and serve to the bed."

Aarvi gulped imagining the cupcakes, "Then let's eat cupcakes first, then marriage."

Aaron: "..."

Aarvi stuck her tongue out looking at his jealous face for the cupcakes. Before he could comment, a few guards ran front and two stood behind Shawn when he knocked on their car window.

Aaron rolled the window down and heard Shawn, "Accident. Shea ran out to help there for first aid."

Aarvi who had her hand in Aaron's hand pursed her lips and pulled her hand out to let him go if he wanted. He was a doctor and she didn't want to come between his ethics.

However, Aaron didn't alight as she thought, he held back her hand and asked Shawn, "Ambulance?"

Shawn glanced at the crowd. "I have called them, there is one closeby." He was staying inside the car with Jordan and Connor after receiving the message. His car was behind Aaron's whereas another was at the front. When Shea heard if there were any doctors, Shea alighted and ran out without giving a chance for Karsen or Megan to speak.

As soon as Shawn noticed Karsen following Shea, Shawn was quick to look into it and checked out there. He turned back to Aaron and let them know, "The road might take some time to clear out."

Aaron was about to nod, Shawn mumbled, "But it's kind of suspicious." The crowd was too calm and a person was still screaming for the doctor when Karsen and Shea were helping the wounded. Shouldn't he try for an ambulance first if he was worried?

Aaron felt his guess might be accurate hearing Shawn but, what will Leon earn by doing this? He turned to the woman who was scribbling on his palm with her nails as though she didn't know what was happening there.

To top it off, she innocently smiled that was too cunning.
