The Traps of Black Swan

Chapter 643 - Life Of Doctor’s Wife

Tia's lips gaped hearing Dax. His apology made her feel relieved. At the same time, she was stunned hearing he was asking her if they could start fresh. 

Dax tilted his head looking at her unreactive. Seeing her unblinking eyes, he waved his hand in front of her face and then shook her shoulder. 

Tia gasped coming back to reality. She scratched her head thinking if she really heard him right. She hesitantly spoke, "You mean… You aren't actually breaking up with me."

Dax shook his head. Well, it was kind of a breakup from the name called Tia Spencer, the salesgirl of the flower shop.

"You- You aren't angry at me anymore?"

He shook his head again.

"Then you have forgiven me." She again asked to be more certain.

He nodded in response, letting her digest. He saw her lips curling up but she suddenly got angry and punched him. That was a really strong punch. He rubbed his stomach and heard her "Why did you have to say breakup? You... You... You are cruel… Mannerless… Stubborn… And… And… Dumb."

He chuckled seeing her trying so hard to find words to scold him. He reached out and pulled her to his embrace seeing her holding back her tears, for finally resolving everything.

Tia was about to wrap her hands around him and recalled his wound. Holding his shirt at one side, she hugged him back with the other hand.

After a few seconds, she shifted her head and asked him looking at his calm face with a tiny smirk, "What do you mean by start afresh?"

"Means I will court you properly."

Tia didn't know why she flushed but she felt her cheeks warm, "I-it wasn't required... I guess. You are busy."

"Are you sure?" He questioned because he could feel she was happy to hear him say he will woo her.

Tia bit her lips and promptly shook her head, earning a flick on her forehead.

Rubbing her forehead, she asked in a dilemma pointing at the door, "So should I leave here?" 

Dax nodded as he hummed.

"You will come to me?" She wanted to confirm, again.

"Yes." He uttered to make it clear for her.

"Then I will wait for you." She happily grabbed her laptop and bag and left the penthouse, waving her hand at Dax.

He knew he took too long to decide. He hoped he could keep that smile on her face. 

A small hiss left his lips when he turned around. Standing too long or sitting too long pressures or stretches his wound. 

Going inside the guest room, he dropped her a message, [I have booked a cab for you. Drop me a message when you reach home.] He didn't want Leon's men to go behind her, after all, she had destroyed one of Leon's drug warehouses.

He soon received a reply. He sat down and grabbed his laptop to work sometime, hoping the President would sleep without working. If he sent any email adding her in CC, she would kick him to sleep.

…..

Well, the President had no time to open her laptop. Aaron watched Aarvi running around in the house, grabbing candles, wine, and one flute.

Aaron heard her humming a tune while she added some bath salt into the water, arranged candles around the bathtub, and lit them. She removed the rubber cork of the wine bottle without asking his help and poured some into a flute.  She didn't hand him. She placed it on a small counter next to the tub. 

Then she turned the lights off of the whole master bedroom, lighting dim lights in the bedroom, and watched her arrangements under the light of the candles. Suddenly her eyebrows pinched when she felt something amiss.

"Flowers." Her low sweet voice floated in the silence. She ran out to the balcony. She brought two roses plucking from the plants, stealing from Shawn's balcony. Storming in the walk-in closet, she finally found two small vases in the storage boxes. She picked one. She put the roses in the vase and set them aside.

She gave a last look before turning to Aaron to ask his opinion for her arrangements. Aaron pulled her to his arms wrapping his arm around her waist. Leaning on the wall behind him, he caressed her cheek. He knew she was happy and she wasn't bothering to have restraints.

"What's going on in my wife's little brain?" He asked in his low, sexy voice, to know why she suddenly thought of a romantic bath night for them.

Aarvi felt like Aaron loved to pull her to his arms when she would willingly hug him. "I was thinking… We might have a lot of troubles, worries, and sadness, we will also have at least one small thing to be happy about."

An alluring smile graced Aaron's face. For two years, he had repeated numerous times for her to find happiness and learn to smile but nothing was exciting for her. 

How couldn't he be happy seeing her get herself back from the darkness?

Aaron hummed in her tune and she continued placing her arms on his shoulders and locking her fingers behind his neck. "We have to spend a good quality time together. Why does it have to be boring? Why not pamper ourselves?" She winked at him, smiling mischievously.

Her thoughts were appreciable. "Need some music?" It wasn't like they were going to listen. 

"Heedful." She had forgotten music sets the mood more romantic.

She tried to leave his embrace to fetch her mobile, Aaron caught her lips while fishing his mobile from his pockets. He was unlocking it when it rang too loud in the silence. Aarvi involuntarily pulled out of the kiss and glanced at his mobile screen.

She deeply sighed and muttered, "Life of Doctor's wife." It was a call from the hospital.

Aaron couldn't believe the timing of the call. He answered the call and heard, they are in need of surgeons due to a fire accident in a building.

He was aware they wouldn't call him unless it was an emergency or necessary. So he looked at Aarvi who nodded, asking him to go without bounding to her. After the call ended, "I am so sorry…"

She tiptoed and kissed his cheek, "I can do it again, Ronron. Your duties are also important. Go and be very careful on the roads."

Aaron hugged and watched her arrangements one last time. After a quick hug, he went inside to change into leisurewear. 

Aarvi was thinking, she should enjoy her evening alone. But then, for some reason, she felt like she was letting her guard down. She rushed inside the walk-in and announced, "Ronron, I will drop you on the bike."

Aaron lifted his brows wearing his pullover. He was lower profile when he reached the office, then the hospital, and home. They had only one such car right now. He doesn't have time to wait for another car. The probability of Leon's men noticing it at the hospital and company was high. He could understand her worry and the possibility of Leon or his men expecting them on a bike was low.

"Shawn will drop me then. You rest at home."

Aarvi obediently agreed and ran out to call Shawn.

-----

In the Harmon mansion, 

Leon was on the way home when he saw a building burning in fire. He arranged his men to help the injured out of the building like volunteers. Meanwhile, he had instructed his men to stuff people's brains as only Doctor Rivas could save them at Rivas Hospital.

Hence the family members demanded for Aaron, for treating their injured family member. When the chaos was increasing hospital staff had to contact Aaron. 

His men were waiting near the hospital to attack Aaron anytime soon. He planned to kidnap Aaron, or else kill him. If not both, severly injure him. 

Leon was relaxed in the home waiting for good news.
