Aarvi ignited the engine and changed the gear of the car to reverse. The road was blocked with Leon's men who had no strength to get up and make space as one or the other bone was broken. The other lane was filled with the automobile scraps so there was no way Leon could follow them.
So Aarvi kept an eye on her rearview mirror taking reverse when the man next to her had his eyes fixed on her.
"Somebody was s.e.xy being bossy." He flirted in his hypnotic voice.
Aarvi glanced at him, she was childish in her opinion. Anyway, she smugly responded, "Your girlfriend seems cool."
Aaron let out a throaty chuckle. To be frank, he just loved her attitude, how her silence left Leon on the edge and afraid to speak anything or take an action in front of her.
He pitied Leon who was yet to realize he was afraid of 'Ava Kelly' hence he was burying down his frustration.
He knew he did the right thing sitting in the car without taking the credits for her actions as Leon tends to assume women are weak and need men to support them.
Unbuckling the seat belt, he leaned in brushing away the hair from her cheek, and pecked on her soft smooth cheek admiringly without disturbing her driving.
Aarvi smiled involuntarily inclining her head towards his face. She always needed time to relax after meeting any of the sc.u.ms from past that night.
Even though she pissed off Leon, she was least interested in seeing him or talking to him so she expected it would take a long time to calm down but Aaron's touch was enough to warm her cold heart.
His lips on her cheek and warm breath tickling her skin eased her heart, throwing away her encounter with Leon Harmon and exhaustion behind her mind.
Anyway, it didn't take long for her to become all spoiled and mischievous. Quickly erasing the smile away straightening her head, making sure she was driving right, she demanded like a boss, "One more."
Pleased, Aaron followed her command and was about to plant another peck on her cheek but the lady in command turned at the right time and his lips landed on hers.
Aarvi enjoyed his minute changes for her unexpected move, her lips were in an attractive smirk when she playfully winked at him stealing his heart away.
'Doozy!' He thought before leaning in further, grabbing her face, and bit her cheek.
She started it thinking he would consider she had the wheels in her hands. Anyway, she screamed holding the steering wheel tight without daring to take her eyes away from the road, "Aaron, I am driving..."
Aaron completed before she could complete, "...me crazy."
Aarvi: "..."
She didn't want to stop the car around the Harmon Industries so she didn't know if she should speed fast to their penthouse or slow down and enjoy his teases.
She retorted to his words, "Noo, I am driving the car and you are driving ME crazy... Aaron." She whined.
Aaron left her after another peck on her cheek, he had no plans to land them in the hospital.
Aarvi breathed a sigh and relaxed on the seat. 'Wait, why did he turn so silent?' She cautiously glanced at him.
Aaron sat back properly, put on the seat belt as though he didn't do anything just a second back. He elegantly responded by settling the creases of his sleeves, "I am honored."
Aarvi: "..."
He said with a straight face that he was honored to know he was driving her crazy.
'Yeah, you are indeed driving me crazy.' Aarvi thought.
The rest of their journey continued with teasing each other without having any idea Aarvi was bound to face the pursuers of Aaron.

In the Rivas mansion,
Jordan and Connor were only the hosts present in the Rivas mansion to welcome and have dinner with the Parkinson family.
Settling in the ground floor living hall, the butler was quick to arrange for everything needed even though it was notified in a short time.
Mr. and Mrs. Parkinson sat on the three-seater couch. Both were in their fifties and looked very easygoing.
Opposite to them sat Jordan and Connor, asking them to feel at home and ease up. It wasn't even fifteen minutes, all heard a car halt and the maid announced the arrival of a young lady.
Susan turned behind and smiled at the lady who entered with icy cold face yet beautiful in her own way.
Her brown eyes were attractive on her honey-toned skin but held no emotions. Her movements were crisp and her gaze sharp.
She wasn't any gentle, graceful lady but a tough, cold, brave military lieutenant. She was still in her camouflage trousers and the boots signifying she reached there straight from her base camp. The uniform shirt was replaced with a black plain shirt.
It would be better to say she had a strong build compared to the delicate woman with curves. Her brown hair was tied in a high-tight ponytail and the military dog tail hung around her neck in a chain.
Her thin lips were bare but soft, her tanned skin was blemish-free but rough staying under the hot scorching hot sun for long.
Her sharp cold eyes softened when they fell on her mother and her lips stiffly arced. One could easily say she hardly smiles just by looking at her facial action but her eyes were genuinely happy.
"Charlo..." The doting voice of Mr. Benson Parkinson sounded. He had to take early retirement from the military due to his health issues and started a business to spend the time.
Now his son helps him at business but he wanted him in the military. He wanted to spoil his daughter but she became the tough one and joined the military right after her school.
"Dad." The lady greeted her father who was always proud of her for choosing something most girls would fear to think.
Charlotte Parkinson was a twenty-three years young woman, stepping into the Rivas mansion after five years. Before that, she often visited the Rivas family with her mother and was well acquainted with the Rivas family members.
She walked up to the two men and slightly bowed to them, "Grandfather Rivas, Uncle Rivas."
Connor nodded, pointing to the couch to have a seat while Jordan hummed, "We thought you might have forgotten the way here." His voice had the provocation.
Charlotte let out a stiff chuckle before responding, "I am sorry, I got so busy with the training and missions." She apologized for never visiting them.
Taking the nearest seat, she continued, "Grandfather, you know how difficult it is for women to sustain in the military competing with men."
Jordan merely hummed. It wasn't just in the military, it is everywhere so it wasn't surprising to know she was training hard.
Connor checked the time before he probed, "Why don't we start dinner?" He looked at Jordan as it was their dinner time.
Jordan nodded before looking at the family of three, "Let's have dinner first."
The three agreed as they were hungry after a long day. Connor and Jordan were leading them inside when Benson Parkinson asked, "Where are Karsen and Madam Morgan?"
Connor politely responded after glancing at him, "They are attending the Mirage banquet today. Aarvi, Shawn, Aaron are over there too." He mentioned the children before they could ask.
Susan and her husband were nodding, Charlotte's voice followed, "Aarvi?" She never heard the name before. "Shawn got a girlfriend?"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Aarvi ignited the engine and changed the gear of the car to reverse. The road was blocked with Leon's men who had no strength to get up and make space as one or the other bone was broken. The other lane was filled with the automobile scraps so there was no way Leon could follow them.
