Chapter 348 - Mastermind Is Different
Aaron has yet to talk about Hayden Kelly with Aarvi, he also wanted to explain to her even though she wasn\'t angry at him.
Anyway, seeing her bringing another girl home to ruin his plan, he can\'t even imagine their dinner nights, cozy cuddling movie nights, or their little dates filled with the chatter of Shea Morris.
No, no, he can\'t let his plan ruin right in front of his eyes.
"Will you leave your room and sleep on the couch?" He had a winning smirk.
Shea who was ready to say hello slacked on the couch and grumbled to her brother saying Aaron is heartless.
They had five bedrooms, one is her room, another one is an office or study room so what about other rooms. Confused, "What happened to the rest of the rooms?"
Aaron pointed upstairs asking her to check it out herself. He wanted her to check out if in case, she needs changes in the arrangements. So Aarvi went upstairs in curiosity and Shea followed her by letting the two friends have their time due to Nikun\'s unusual silence the whole time.
That was so not him and it didn\'t suit his personality either. She could guess her brother didn\'t really take her there because of her pester to meet Aaron but he had something else to speak with Aaron.
Aarvi reached the upstairs and took a right turn in front of the wine cellar and pushed the door open. A bedroom was turned into a sophisticated gym.
\'There is still a chance.\' She thought and opened the left side room door in the corridor. Another room was turned into a laundry room whereas they had a laundry room on the next level of the penthouse.
\'What did he do with that room?\' She thought reaching the end of the right-side corridor.
She opened the entertainment room which was still intact without changes. Tracking back with Shea in tow, she went upstairs to check out the previous laundry room was changed to a recreational room.
It was perfect for friends or family to gather and have fun with the vast terrace in the front. Since the next penthouse also belonged to them, they could easily have a great time if needed.
Without going out to the hot sun, both descended with a minor talk about the interior and reached the last room that left excluding the master bedroom.
Aarvi involuntarily smiled looking at the cat room. It was cute and amazing for her Laze. Laze saw Aarvi and meowed at her standing on the small wooden swinging bridge.
Aarvi carried it to her arms looking around at the toys and adventures prepared for Laze. She wanted to be a kitten to play in the cat\'s playground.
Laze who probably felt the new place foreign clung to her and Shea stood outside without entering. "Aarvi, is it your cat?"
Aarvi turned around to see Shea uneasily standing by the door while her eyes were amazed by the cat\'s room. Shea smiled looking at the black oriental cat and its eyes, "Owner and the pet are sexy." Then she looked at Aarvi and whined, "I am scared of animals."
Aarvi nodded in understanding and went closer to her, her soft voice of advice sounded, "Then you should start by caressing it. Don\'t try to carry directly. Cats can sense our feelings." If not for other cats, Aarvi knew Laze could sense her moods easily.
Laze was lazy to start with, initially, it glared at Shea ready with its paws, due to Aarvi, it slowly got used to Shea\'s touch.
Aarvi was happy that Aaron didn\'t leave Laze at the Avron mansion. Anyway, she wanted Laze to be in her room. She thought to teach Laze from going in and out of two rooms.
Then Shea checked the master bedroom after seeking Aarvi\'s permission. As the name suggests, it was a spacious modern master suite with minimal furniture. Shea\'s gaze fell on the no-door bathroom and giggled to herself. She was happy for Aaron.
There was a wall covering the shower area but one could see who could be in the bathtub. Further inside, there was a huge walk-in closet with all the facilities.
Returning to the bedroom, "Woah!" Shea exclaimed at the spectacular view after pushing the white drapes away from the balcony standing by floor-to-ceiling windows.
Skipping out she saw the balcony was attached to the next penthouse so the pool size was big with ample space for a barbecue kitchen, lounge, and gathering.
Marrying Aaron\'s little brother didn\'t look like a bad idea looking at the view and the private vast balcony where guests don\'t have entry.
Aarvi let her enjoy and returned to the living hall after hearing Aaron\'s voice. She answered the call settling next to Aaron.
Aaron\'s hands itched to pull her close to him but controlled due to Nikun and to avoid making Aarvi uncomfortable.
Nikun and Aaron noticed her pleasantness turn cold before she uttered in extreme nonchalance, "I had expected this. Keep me updated."
After she hung up the call, she revealed to Aaron, "I think we may not need to attend Mirage Banquet. The afternoon dose is high for Leon Harmon and he isn\'t daring to leave the house."
She wanted to give him an amazing gift at Mirage Banquet but by the looks of it, all her preparation seemed to be wasted.
Nikun was quick to catch her words and deduced, "Leon Harmon." One who wanted to separate his favorite couple and attack Aaron\'s Cupcake.
Aarvi looked at Nikun after hearing his dangerously menacing voice. He was very silent before and now the air around him was unapproachable and his eyes looked malicious.
After glancing at expressionless Aaron, she changed the topic, "What were you guys talking about? Is there a problem?"
Nikun realized Aarvi is too attentive to people\'s behavior, unlike her teenage self. He looked at Aaron thinking he might want to hide his office problem from Aarvi but the man didn\'t think twice before revealing it.
"Do you remember I sent the Golden oil project team to a secure place?" Aaron asked plainly.
Aarvi nodded in response. The project team members were sent to the Morris hotels under tight security. Aarvi realized something went wrong with the team members and that was the reason behind Nikun\'s appearance.
Aaron saw her guessing the events looking at her expression change. He is cent percent sure she will be on point so he didn\'t brief in the depth, "They are safe but due to the critical situation, Milo Wen had to reach them."
Aarvi again nodded understanding Milo Wen didn\'t disturb Aaron when they were at engagement hall so he sent Nikun to the penthouse to deliver the news personally while he flew to Coasta.
Nikun looked at the couple in amusement. Whatever Aaron was speaking doesn\'t make sense but the lady was nodding in understanding without needing a clear explanation.
But still, he liked the cute teenage couple from the cafe of the past nine years.
After Aarvi got to know the reason behind Nikun\'s presence, he revealed another set of news that Aarvi might want to know or be aware of.
"Merton Industries are the ones who wanted to frame me for Secretariat\'s death. The sharpshooter belongs to Leon Harmon."
Aarvi nodded, that she had guessed in the beginning. There was something more so she silently waited for him to finish.
"But the mastermind is different," Aaron added, and Nikun raised his brow in question. The latter didn\'t expect Aaron to share everything with Aarvi that would burden her more.
Aarvi clenched her fist and gritted her teeth.
