The Traps of Black Swan

In Waterfront villa

Aarvi finished her early morning yoga and sipped her beetroot juice. Standing at the floor-to-ceiling glass wall she watched Aaron in the pool. She can't control her breathing hence Aaron had stopped her from entering the pool and his complete workout routine was unbelievable.

Starting with a jog, he goes to the gym then swimming in the pool whereas she was constricted to a mat on the floor for her yoga.

A maid nurse who was cleaning watched Aaron getting out of the pool in swimming trunks. Aarvi, who turned to leave, noticed the maid drooling and looked at Aaron again.

Undoubtedly he managed his physique really hot even in his busy schedule. The water tracing on his defined abs and droplets on his wet hair was too much to handle. The maids and even the neighbor villa university girl peek at him daily for the feastful sight.

Aarvi rolled her eyes and sat on her chair at the patio for breakfast. Before Aaron could reach there, she finished some cupcakes and then started eating a healthy breakfast.

Aaron spoke when they were almost done, "I will take you to hospital for a regular checkup then you can go to your office."

Aarvi knew she had to visit the hospital according to her schedule so she had cleared her day, "I want to start swimming."

He didn't expect that request all of sudden and he had no idea she knew to swim, "You can start breathing exercise in the water. Start off from a single lap and you can increase later."

Aarvi didn't expect that was going to be so easy. She thought she would have to argue half a day. "Then jogging?"

Aaron placed his juice glass calmly on the table and looked at her playing with a boiled egg waiting for his responses, "Are you planning to follow my workout? Or... Do you want to work out with me?" He will go on cloud nine if it's the latter option.

'Oh please, all maids will curse me to death and the next door girl probably wants to rip me off.'

"No, I just tested." She wanted to see if he was going to say yes or no. Anyway, she doesn't like running.

Aaron: "..."

Aarvi left to get ready

...

In Rivas Hospital

Aaron personally monitored her checkup routine making sure she was alright without getting angry at any doctor and the latter never dared to misbehave in his presence.

Naomi saw Aaron's car parked when she reached so she excitedly went to his office but saw Aarvi sitting on his chair and in front of a laptop.

"Give me a sec." Aarvi stopped Dax and raised her head, "Yes?"

Naomi's face turned ugly seeing her sitting on Aaron's chair as if it was hers. "Aaron?"

"Doctor Rivas went on rounds with intern doctors." Her serene face didn't reveal any emotions while Dax was shooting dagger at her waiting to see any change in her face.

Naomi forced a smile and said rightfully, "You should respect Aaron's position in the hospital and get comfortable on the couch."

Aarvi's brows raised and an unreadable faint smile left her lips. "I will make sure to inform Doctor Rivas so that he doesn't ask me to take his seat next time."

Dax burst into laughter hearing her threaten with a smile on her face.

Naomi's nails dug her palm and maintained her well-bred lady composure, "That's not necessary if Aaron told you." She forced a smile, "I don't have time to waste. I will get to work. Have a good day."

Aarvi didn't respond and saw her leave.

Naomi had no idea who Aarvi is or what she does. When she heard she has a villa, Aaron gave her one; when she heard she has a limited edition sports car, Aaron bought one for her; her expenses, Aaron looking after it is what she thought all those years.

She went to her office room thinking about how to handle Aarvi who was really getting on her nerves. Initially, she thought Aaron was doing everything because of the heart inside Aarvi but the way he still takes care of her or the way he affectionately looks at Aarvi irked her.

Even though they were friends, studied together, she never got such a priority and treatment as Aarvi. She wants to make them apart sooner so Aarvi doesn't disturb her plan of marriage with Aaron.

She had even asked her grandfather to speed up the process while she started to visit the old man to get on good books.

...

Aarvi saw Dax who had argued with her for a video conference and was watching her curiously. "What?"

Dax grinned mischievously, "However you change, I will still love you. Go, girl! Rule the world."

Aarvi shook her head resignedly. "Go back to work, keep me updated if anything. I am thinking of resting for the weekend."

Dax whined, "Baby darling, I want to see you. Shall we hang out?"

Aarvi didn't give the cold shoulder, "I will let you know Dax." but she didn't accept either.

She completed the rest of the work by the time Aaron returned to the office with his secretary and another adult kid followed grumbling to himself.

"Little heart..." The adult kid ran towards her but before he could reach her, Aaron's hand clutched his collar from behind and pulled him back.

Shawn made a pitiful face on the verge of crying, "Let me hug her and cry at least. (Sniff) (Sniff) Little heart, I'm dying soon."

Aarvi: "..."

She saw Aaron's emotionless face and Secretary Wen's worried expression. Holding Shawn's jacket hem, she pulled him towards the couch.

Shawn followed her to the couch and sat next to her, "Dad called me last week for a general check-up due to my long trip and reports are saying I have blood cancer. See, this is the report."

Aarvi took the report and checked whatever she could understand then she glanced at Aaron who was calm and composed.

"If you are pranking me then I will..."

Shawn cut in clutching his hair, "No Little heart. Just now we fetched the report. Ask Secretary Wen if you want."

Aarvi glanced at Secretary Wen who nodded his head. "Yes, Ms.Evans. Shawn sir is right."

Aarvi didn't know what to say, "Fate is sealed?"

Shawn, Secretary Wen: "..."

Aaron saw her thinking without realizing she voiced her thoughts. "We are in the twenty-first century."

Aarvi continued, "If not, rest in peace."

Shawn growled, "Are you even my friend? Do you have a heart? I... I hate you."

He sat on the other edge of the couch, looking away from everyone. Aarvi passed a book for him, "To write the will."

Shawn: "..."

Seeing them, Shawn felt like he was overreacting but how can he be at ease knowing that he has blood cancer.

Aarvi knew Aaron wouldn't be calm if Shawn had such a serious problem. If he could look after her well, she knew Aaron would join day and night for the best treatment of Shawn.

Shawn put on a somber face, took a pen and the book. He seriously started writing for the rest of the time.
