The Traps of Black Swan

Chapter 52 - Unforeseen Kiss

At Mocon International Airport

Aarvi reached the airport and parked her car before running inside. She had just reached the private departure gateway, she saw Rivas Industries jet on the runway.

She couldn't believe she sped on the road for forty-five minutes to see the plane taking off. She knew she could have called him to let him know but she wanted to see how he would react seeing her out of blue.

She started tapping her forehead on the glass panel thinking about what she really wants in her life. She can't accept him because he loves her boundlessly. Unless she can't requite his love, it will be unfair to Aaron. She wasn't even sure if she could forget everything and be like a normal girlfriend.

Lost in thoughts, she wasted nearly five minutes standing in the same place and heard, "Ms. Evans?"

'Secretary Wen?' Aarvi quickly turned around to see Aaron, his two secretaries, a manager, and his assistant looking at her. While four were perplexed, one was astonished keeping his eyes on her.

She was certain she saw Rivas Industries logo on the jet which was on the runway so she turned around to see if it had landed or taken off but heard, "Dad went to Costa for a conference."

"Oh!" She turned back to them but her eyes settled on the man's charismatic face. She really wanted to know how he guesses her question just by her actions most of the time.

Aaron didn't expect her at the airport at all. He wasn't sure if she wanted to tell him something or wanted to see him or would like to join him. He wished the latter choice looking at her blank yet pleasing face. "Let's go."

Aarvi's faint nod went unnoticeable to others but not Aaron who instructed, "Arrange for Aarvi's required clothes at both places."

"Right away." Secretary Wen said and pulled his mobile out to make a call.

Aaron cued her to walk and went beside her. Aarvi messaged Dax about her schedule and also Sean who had spammed her inbox. 'I am on a Business trip. I will see you on Saturday.'

Aaron noticed her second message by mistake, "Business trip?"

Aarvi replied with a straight face, "My boyfriend won't like it if he knows I am going on vacation with five men."

The five men turned to her at once. The four wanted to say it isn't vacation and Aaron wanted to flick her head for calling Sean a boyfriend and generalizing him with the other four men.

Aarvi remembered something and turned to dark-faced Aaron, "I haven't traveled for three years. Nothing is going to happen to this, right?"

'This?' Aaron saw her pointing her chest. His palm really itched to pull her ear to stuff some sense. "Heart, your heart. Stop addressing as if it isn't yours... Your health is stable so you will be alright. If anything, I am right here."

Aarvi hummed looking at his cold face and thought to irritate him, "City J is covered in snow. I think I should drop this vacation. I will be at home."

She turned to leave but the next second she gasped when Aaron scooped her up to stop her. The four men looked at each other and then at their president who said coldly, "It's too late."

Aarvi retorted with his method, "Can't you speak and convince?"

Aaron was amused, "You wanted me to coax you."

Aarvi saw his mischievous smirk gazing at her. She wasn't going to agree to it and see his winning smirk, "I wanted to annoy you. I wanted to be troublesome."

Aaron remarked at her ear in a low magnetic voice carrying a hint of excitement, "So we are in the analysis phase."

Aarvi raised her hand and smacked his head asking, "Is this business project?"

Aaron stilled, then Aarvi realized what she just did and saw his expressionless yet irresistible face. She quickly got off from his arms and ran behind Secretary Wen leaving everyone at the loss of words by her actions.

Even if at a snail's pace, Aaron was sure to get his cupcake back seeing her active around him. He didn't freeze because she hit him, he was astounded seeing her lively.

Aarvi comfortably sat on a single recliner seat but when Aaron entered, he seamlessly carried her and settled her on a double seater, and sat next to her.

"I don't like it and I haven't accepted you yet either. Stop forcing yourself on me." Aarvi uttered out with a frown. Her expression loudly spoke that she needs space and time.

Aaron was calm irrespective of her mood, "I have to make sure you are spoiled so that you will stop taking that nut brain Sean Harmon's name to tease me."

She controlled her smile and started playing on her mobile. Somehow she loved squabbling with him because whatever he says brings a smile on her face.

Aaron gave her heads-up, "We will be discussing the project, you will be bored. So enjoy the music." Before her yes or no, a headphone covered her ears with a piece of relaxing music playing in it.

Aarvi saw his expectant gaze at her so she wobbled her head and time passed. While the rest of them, particularly Secretary Wen smiled to himself seeing the new type of tension between them. He even decided in his head who is going to be their lady boss.

When the meeting continued, Aarvi dozed off on Aaron's shoulder having nothing better to do. Might be the music, she got a very good sleep without dreams.

When the air hostess wanted to recline her chair, Aaron stopped her so that Aarvi could continue sleeping without waking up by the movements. Deep down, he knew well it wasn't the reason, he liked the feeling of her head on his shoulder.

It was just a two-hour flight and Aaron didn't have the heart to wake her up so he carried her to the car and the seaside hotel. Before leaving the hotel, he made sure to leave a note for her if she wakes up when he will be in the meeting at the nearest branch office.

At seven in the evening.

Aarvi had changed to a black beautiful backless slip-long beach dress and walked on the shore waiting for Aaron to return from the meeting for dinner.

Since it wasn't the regular vacation time and the seaside hotel is expensive, the travelers or visitors were fewer. She was enjoying her time but her gaze landed on a couple going towards her.

She hadn't thought she could get to see the disgusting couple so far from the Mocon. Since her plan wasn't to meet them so soon, she had to leave before they could identify her.

She turned around taking a step to leave quickly but bumped into somebody. Her flip flop slipped on the sand and she fell on the man pushing him down with her.

Her eyes widened as soon as their lips met. She wasn't sure if she should be glad that the man is Aaron or cry for an unforeseen kiss. While falling if he hadn't held her, she would have cent percent crashed her nose on his chest but now it was even more embarrassing to face him.

Aaron was thankful for the sand which didn't hurt him. Her widened eyes were amazing with her lips on his. He liked their unexpected intimacy but he tried his best not to move his lips and piss her off.

Secretary Wen who watched the whole thing didn't know what to do other than turning away. He even mulled over his presence around them isn't going to be appropriate anymore.

Aarvi flushed red and wanted to get up but heard the faint voices traveling towards them. She slowly moved her head and buried her face in the crook of his neck, squeezing her eyes shut knowing he was going to tease her.

Lying on him wrapped by his hand around her waist, 'This is so embarrassing...' She really wanted to bury herself in the sand.
