Chapter 140 - I Will Be Your Home



Zachary watched Billy before opening his lips for the first time. He pointed to his assistant, "My assistant will come and complete the formalities on Monday."

He took a step back, turned around, and left the hospital room without waiting for Billy\'s response. Others gave a quick modest bow to Billy and followed Zachary who was soon going to be known in the business world.

Friday night started the revamp of the Craft business, many employees were silently working their ass off for straight three nights and two days, ready to be announced to the world.

---

Aaron, who heard Aarvi the entire time, had an appreciation for her without realizing they had reached Rivas Industries. He couldn\'t believe a small action of Billy Craft ended him up losing the whole business while all she did was pre-plan everything, watch and buy shares.

"I have no words for you." He uttered.

Aarvi grinned hearing his dumbstruck voice, "Thank you, I\'m flattered."

Aaron leaned his head on the seat looking at her and softly stated, "I will be your home..."

Aarvi really felt emotional hearing his simple words full of warmth. She always had a house without love and warmness for her. She truly needed a home that he gave her.

Aaron continued rubbing her head, "I will be your home to rest your little brain and relax."

That wasn\'t a tease, he could say how much planning, structuring, and molding was required for her to think and be ahead of the present. He commended her patience to wait for the result. 

Aarvi smiled faintly, humming as she gave a nod, "Very much needed." Probably, she alone could get many things but not home and love.

"Doozy!" He uttered carefully rubbing the corner of her wet eyes.

Aarvi let wipe and continued, "Today I have to check some important files at Skylar, then a lunch meeting with Dax and Zachary Barnes in the afternoon. I will call you after it."

There was a hmph missing in the look of sulking face, "Isn\'t Dax there to look after the work?" He wanted to keep her around him so that she could rest too unlike working and giving a lot of work to her brain.

Aarvi chuckled hearing him as she shook her head, "Aaron Rivas, Skylar is what I dreamt of building it and I can\'t let Dax overload himself with everything."

\'But you are overloading yourself.\' He thought without saying and sighed inwardly.

He knew his cupcake wanted to be a businesswoman to employ many people and help a lot. Even though she is hurting the businesses of others, her aim was only the top sitting men hence she would make sure other people\'s lives don\'t get troubled much.

Even though she is heartless, ruthless, and scheming, it was only concerned with the people she was targeting.

Outside the car, Milo Wen silently waited with few more directors. He almost wanted to yawn by the time he heard the car door unlock so he quickly held it open and overheard, "Ahhh go. I am already late. Aaron..." He heard a sound of light peck before Aaron alighted silencing the other voice.

"President Rivas!" Milo greeted Aaron as he closed the car door but the man ignored him and went around the car. Opening the driver seat door, Aaron pulled the beauty to his arms without bothering many eyes on them.

Looking at the tamed man, Milo Wen felt like eating dog food hearing Aarvi giggle when Aaron whispered tidying her strands of frizzy hair.

He turned behind to see wide-eyed directors trying to capture their every movement in disbelief.

\'I have to stop the spread of news, sigh.\' Milo Wen prepared himself for the next tedious work to warn everyone.

Once the car left, each one noticed Aaron\'s face turn dark as he walked to the entrance uttering two words, "Investigation status."

Milo Wen cued the directors to maintain distance and reported in a rather low voice catching up with the speed of Aaron, "President Rivas, indeed the target of the whole situation is you. We aren\'t sure if the minister is also a target or chosen scapegoat."

He passed his tab to Aaron and continued, "Ms. Evan\'s sent this mail in the morning which states this is to divert our attention from acquiring the Coasta\'s petroleum manufacturing plant. If your name sticks to the case of death, the chance of losing the project is high and we have invested quite a high price for this."

Matter of fact, they were only checking on the minister, military, and who tried to tamper in the ICU without checking on the business side. Because they thought the other person wanted to tarnish the image of \'Best Cardiologist and surgeon in the country.\'

Aaron paused realizing Aarvi sent that mail right in front of him. He hadn\'t stolen a glance else he would get to know in the Avron mansion itself.

Milo Wen continued in seriousness without hiding the admiration for the woman who acted timely.

"Ms. Evan\'s group is busy on this work hence she asked us to be low profile or stay on the wrong path to trick them. She asked for two days\' time to clear this out but instructed if we could make sure about the safety of the minister in the military hospital and ambush our team who are working on the project."

It was inevitable the one who is keeping an eye on Rivas industries would try to know who they were checking on so what Aarvi decided made sense but she didn\'t know they had multiple secret sources to gather information.

Aaron\'s brows slightly trembled at the realization of why Aarvi was wearing makeup and missed her swimming in the morning. Obviously, to hide her dark circles from him. However, he knew he would have thought of a nightmare as a reason even if he saw.

He also knew why she didn\'t tell him because he wouldn\'t let her worry about his troubles. He could only hope the one who was targeting him isn\'t related to her past which might affect her thinking she became the reason for his troubles.

"Get me the list of companies bidding on the project. Instruct Zero to get on the work. Shift our project team to a resort at the Coasta south border..." He instructed through the way to his office while the directors went their way.

Aaron entered his office to see a beautiful bouquet of pink baby berth wrapped in the same colored floristic paper greeting him laying against the sun rays penetrating inside the office room. 

Unknowingly a smile beautified his face dispersing the coldness and even a light chuckle left his lips remembering how she had stolen the flowers from decorators of the wedding and gave him a small bouquet that looked more like a bridal bouquet.

Milo Wen who had held his breath noting down everything at the speed of a bullet train, relaxed, praising the lady boss for calming the dragon without her own presence.

They got on work and Aaron\'s Zero team too worked on the lane which Aarvi chose so that investigation could finish faster but yeah, it wasn\'t informed to Aarvi. Since the Zero team works under Shawn he obviously sped up the work to lighten the pressure on his brother and Little Heart.

At another end, Aarvi and Dax worked in the Skylar while Dax tried his best to pull out the information about what she was going to do next by asking question after question but received no response.

"Dum Dum, what if Billy Craft hadn\'t gone behind you and checked on other girls?" Since he couldn\'t get the future plans, Dax asked about the past plans looking at Aarvi who was checking on the fifth draft of the new project proposal.

"I was ready with an anonymous messenger to pull him to the crowd," Aarvi uttered without breaking her eyes from the file.

"What if he ignored that too." Dax tried to know how many extra plans she kept in hand.

Aarvi raised her head, throwing the file back on the desk, "Revise." She ordered for the next draft to make changes wherever she had marked. 

Dax knew she wouldn\'t be satisfied so easily and the team was already improving for the sixth draft so his expression was calm moving the file aside to hear the response. 

Aarvi chuckled and revealed the ultimate striker to push Billy to a hole which she didn\'t use, "Billy\'s secretary had scammed a lot of money and I have the proof. I would have threatened him and got the same end result."

Dax rested his head on his palm supporting his elbow on the desk looking at her in awe, "My honey bun is so evil and scary." Aarvi chuckled and pulled him up, "Lunchtime..."

---

At a luxurious restaurant, private room.

Aarvi entered the private room followed by Dax. Both had a stoic expression unlike how they are with each other. As soon as they entered, a man in his late twenties in a business suit stood up to greet but the astonishment was obvious on his face.

Dax went ahead and pulled the chair for her when her hand had just reached for it, "Dax..." She couldn\'t stop Aaron if he does it but she didn\'t really like it if Dax or Shawn do for her. It might be as a friend or President.

"Sit..." However, Dax moved her and pressed her shoulder to sit before taking the next seat and cued the man to sit down.

Zachary Barnes composed quickly looking at the duo who had a professional attitude but their friendliness is evident, "President..."

"Evans" Aarvi completed removing her sunglasses and looked at the man. He may not be the most handsome man out there but he was better looking than average. "Have a seat."

"President Evans" He uttered again and looked at Dax, "CEO Grant." He greeted and sat after seeing Dax nod.

"To be frank, I didn\'t expect President Evans to be the youngest President of the country. The whole Skylar is young blood." Zachary said considering the President and CEO of Skylar as he cued the waiter who was waiting outside.

It was an eye-opener for Dax realizing Zachary Barnes never met Aarvi and started speculating if he is related to her past or has any connection to Leon Harmon.

He controlled the words which were at the tip of the tongue, \'Who is he?\' to know his real identity how could she believe him so easily.
