Chapter 630 - The Villainess Is Back

Shea slapped Shawn's hand from her head. Instead of responding to his question, she sheepishly revealed, "I sneaked out."

Karsen had ordered her to stay in the Rivas estates as Rivas family elders and Elder Harmon were sure that the trouble was caused by nobody but Leon. They were calm and assured that their kids would handle everything smoothly and their intrusion would cause them trouble. However, she failed to keep her nerves in check and dialed Shawn's number. Then she tried to contact him a few times until she saw the news about Dax's car accident.

Aarvi and Aaron weren't in the city. So she wanted to be there with Shawn, support him, keep his spirits up. With that, she was worried about what must have happened to Shawn as he was out of reach. So she sneaked out of the estate and took the local bus. Due to the far distance, it took her time to reach the club.

Shawn could make a guess Shea was aware of the danger she put herself by reaching them. So he asked to know why she took that risk, "And why did you sneak out?"

Meanwhile, Tia stopped crying and let go of Aarvi. Both of their focus shifted to the two. One appeared interrogating while the other one blushed in embarrassment. Zain shook his head in resignation hearing Shawn's question. It was so obvious Shea left her safe cocoon to see Shawn. 

Zain caught Aarvi's gaze and saw her lift her brows. He kept his finger on his lips to keep her silent and wait. Aarvi realized she had judged Shea correctly. The latter was indeed attracted to Shawn, not just physically.

Shea scratched her head hearing Shawn, asking the reason.  She thought to lie as Megan was worried about him so she appeared. Then thinking why was she trying to lie to Shawn when she did no sin, she chose to tell the truth. So she responded to Shawn, unawarely in a low voice... No, it was more like a whisper just for Shawn to hear, "I was worried about you." She accepted it.

Shawn assumed she was worried about him like a friend. They were agreed to be friends anyway so he didn't want to assume anything in his mind and make things complicated for each other, especially when he was still trying to sort his thoughts about her.

He nodded to the response while he trailed, "Ookay..." Shea was about to relax, Shawn asked in a normal audible voice that everyone heard, "Why are you whispering?"

Zain, Aarvi, and Tia: "..."

'My Sweet little Cute Prince, when did you turn dumb?' Aarvi felt like there is some kind of misunderstanding at Shawn's side. As far as she knows Shawn, he was very open when it comes to any kind of relationship, love, or friendship. So he should have discerned Shea's embarrassment. Then she sighed thinking Shawn must be stressed as Dax was still unconscious and his fear of relapse had just subsided.

Zain wasn't able to hear what Shea said but he could guess she hadn't lied. He was proud of her. He glanced at Shawn's back, it wasn't time for them to worry about their relationship so he stayed quiet to focus on the problem.

However, somebody wasn't ready to let go of the chance especially after seeing the reactions of brother and sister, "Shea, did you come for Brother Shawn?" Tia asked pretending like she questioned as they didn't hear her voice.

Zain and Aarvi both brushed the tip of their nose with their finger as they looked away, hiding their smirks. Well, it was the smoothest and direct way of telling Shawn that Shea was there for him.

Unfortunately, Shawn was adamant about seeing Shea as a friend. While Shea was speechless to Tia's words, Shawn scolded her, "Oh Goddess Shea, you have no superpower and you don't know this city. Were you planning to help me or waiting for Leon to kidnap you?"

Everyone was left wordless looking at Shawn. They gave up. Aarvi and Tia looked at each other and took seats. Shea ignored the man in front of her, she went around and sat next to Zain and sulked. She started misunderstanding as Shawn saw her as nothing but a troublesome girl.

Shawn thought if he was too harsh looking at Shea's reaction. Then he quickly shrugged off as they had more pressing matters to think about. He exited the office room to fetch water for all. He could believe so much happened in such a short time.

Aarvi was leaving the room, Zain knew she was going out to prepare for her attack so he followed her. "Pumpkin…" He called her out and continued when she paused and turned to face him.

"What did you plan, Pumpkin? We shouldn't take any step in anger." He didn't want Aarvi to regret her decision later. The silence was the best choice for anger.

Actions of anger are close to danger. Aarvi wouldn't risk any of their lives at any cost. She never got angry in the past, but this time she was enraged after seeing Dax, lying on her lap.  That anger was telling her to go to Leon and end his chapter immediately. 

However, once Aaron assured her Dax will be alright soon, she gave a very long thought. Leon was doing all these to make her weak. Well, she had lost control over her emotions too, Leon was successful in making her feel weak.

Was that enough to make her weak? Yes, Leon won, she lost. But this stepback was time for her to leap.

Aarvi was sure that she didn't take this decision out of anger or desperate to win to Leon. She wasn't obsessed with victories or delicate to give up for a loss. This was the time she needs to toughen up.

Aarvi shook her head looking at Zain. She knew the latter wasn't stopping her but warning her to be very careful at the most critical time. "Apple Pie, trust me, I have got this."

Her determination and certainty comforted him so Zain nodded in acceptance. He didn't dig further to know the plan as they will it soon. 

As far as he knew, Aarvi had no plans this week till Friday but Leon invited her himself. 

'Buckle up Leon Harmon. The villainess is back..' Zain thought with a sinister smirk on his face as he went back to the office room to let Aarvi carry out her plan.
