Chapter 639 - Passionate

Aarvi got off the car a little away from the building as Leon's men were around in the institute. Bleeding in like a student of the college, she walked towards the building wearing her sunglasses to avoid anybody identifying her as she was trending from the time her face was revealed.

Two Shadow team members managed to get backpacks and blended in pretending like one among all while making sure none had the target on Aarvi. Alex drove the car slowly, providing the car as a shield to Aarvi that avoided the people on the other side taking look at her.

Aarvi was taking the stairs to enter the building when her eyes landed on Sean who rushed out in annoyance. However, he paused as soon as his gaze fell on Aarvi. Maybe none in the institute identified her, he knew she was Aarvi.

His annoyance was replaced with a broad smile on his face looking at her coming to the place he was at. The thought of her being there for him excited him despite knowing she was somebody's wife.

His eyes couldn't help but look at her dress. She wore a black contrast skew neckline slip mini dress. What caught his attention was the white extra layer around her shoulder that gave an off-shoulder look. Her spotless skin under the thin slip and collarbone was as tempting as her face.

He didn't get any dirty thoughts, instead, he was happy to see her, waiting for her to remove the sunglasses, "Aarvi!!!"

Aarvi had expected Sean couldn't be controlled by the institute staff. It was good that she came by at the right time else he would be lying in the operation theatre or ICU after a few minutes.

"Take him in." She instructed the Shadow team member who was passing next to her.

The man next to her didn't respond, pretending to be unknown to her. He climbed the steps fast and threw his hand on Sean's shoulder.

"You…"

"Young Madam Rivas will talk to you inside." The man whispered and dragged Sean inside.

'Young Madam Rivas,' hit him a little hard. He didn't struggle or push the man away. He went inside as he sulked.

Alex stopped the car and pretended to be asking the door guard where to park the car until Aarvi entered inside.

They went straight towards the office where Sean was staying. The chief breathed in relief when he saw Sean in the building. He was about to speak to Sean, his eyes landed on the woman who was beside him and removed her sunglasses.

He brushed past Sean and greeted her, "President Evans… Welcome to our humble institute." He lifted his hand for a handshake and stared at her beautiful face.

Sean shrugged the man and held the man's hand. The man applauded and heard Sean, "Aarvi doesn't like physical contact." Then Sean left his hand and turned to Aarvi. He directly asked, "Did you come here for me?"

The shadow team member and chief: "..."

Aarvi glanced at Sean before looking at the middle-aged man, "Let's talk inside…" Then they went inside. 

Sean heard Aarvi asking how he was doing in classes. Then he was shocked while they were speaking of arranging his transfer to an international culinary university. She wanted them to prepare him in six months to be eligible to enter there. 

He wanted to interject, but the man next to him repeatedly shushed him. 

"Aarvi, shouldn't you ask me first?" He asked when they exited the office room after Aarvi asked for week-long absence permission for him.

Aarvi knew she shouldn't control his life. But these brothers were useless. They would keep hounding her and she wanted to end once for all. She had others to worry about.

"Don't you want to go?" She asked as they went upstairs in the building.

"I will go. Brother Aeon and Sil also suggested the same. I enjoy cooking too." Making something delicious, others tasting it, and complimenting him felt good. If there was a mistake, he could taste it and adjust while cooking. It was a wholly different experience than the writing exam. He liked the overall experience.

Aarvi didn't get to say anything. Sean continued excitedly, "Do you know I was getting bored in the theory classes on cooking. They taught us how the cooking style differs in different parts of the world. I initially hated that we had to practice cutting styles for more than two hours. Then I realized if I put cubes at juliennes or slices at shreds, the taste varies drastically…"

Aarvi glanced at Sean as they slowly climbed the steps. Aarvi had attended such a course so she knew those things, yet she heard him without stopping him. She was surprised that Sean wasn't obsessed over himself anymore, he never once said how good he was at cooking. He was excited to learn more and cook more. 

Knowingly or unknowingly, they found what Sean was going to enjoy all his life. His passion for cooking was noticeable. Aarvi was sure she wasn't going to regret helping Sean.

Sean stopped when they entered the kitchen where they learn cooking. "Why are we here?"

Aarvi collected the apron from Alex as she responded, "Let's cook for dinner." 

"Really? Do you know how to cook?" He got even more excited to cook with her.

Aarvi faintly frowned. Was she giving wrong ideas to Sean? 

The building had only one exit, taking Sean in disguise would be no use as Leon would be more careful this time. She wanted to be out of the radar from Leon's eyes hence she couldn't take him out under security. So they were going to wait till the building was closed at the usual time. Once the road empties, she would send him to Maple regency. Meanwhile, a team was arranged to tow Sean's car pretending to be traffic cops.

She messaged Aaron to reach the institute for dinner. If Sean had different thoughts for her, this should give Sean a clear idea.

She responded to Sean, "So and So. I don't usually cook. My husband cooks for me." She flashed a faint smile and saw his excitement flatter.

Sean wanted to say he could cook also but held back. She went to him so he didn't want to argue and see her leave. "Oh." He shook his head to disperse his thoughts and asked, "What are we cooking?"

"A full meal perhaps..."

Sean cut in immediately, "You- You aren't going to cook all black, right? My stomach is already turning at the thought."

Aarvi tried to bite her lips and control but she giggled recalling how she had tormented the lustful Sean Harmon. 

Sean smiled with her seeing her face turn pink and hearing her unrestrained hearty laughter. If this was the real side of her, he found her even more cute and pretty.

Aarvi shook her head between the laughter, as she let him choose, "Then why don't you choose the dishes?"

Their cooking and prepping started. Even though Aarvi doubted his thoughts in the beginning, she noticed when it came to cooking his attention didn't run anywhere. He asked her questions about cooking, helped her, and also cooked with her.

Once, she contacted Aeon to let him relax by showing Sean with her. She had no idea, one brother sulked seeing Aeon had the contact information of Aarvi and another one was envious seeing the younger brother enjoying with Aarvi.

Meanwhile, the Shadow team was drooling at the variety of dishes after hearing their dinner was with the two chefs who were cooking in large portions.

----

At Harmon mansion,

'Pak'

Leon slapped the man who came and reported Sean had entered the institute but he never exited. The whole building was closed and locked. They had also confirmed with security that none were in the building.

Leon breathed heavily trying to hold his anger. Every plan failed against Aarvi but he hadn't expected Sean to lose from his hands.

"Don't you dare miss him tomorrow? Get out.." He scowled and sat on the couch trying to hold his patience.
