Chapter 429 - Grandmother's style

At Skyarc penthouse,

Aarvi woke up after an amazing sleep. She didn't even know the last time she slept so well without dreams or breaking her sleep. Stretching her body, she flipped to see Aaron squirm in sleep due to her movements.

Anyway, her face instantly turned bright pink looking at him shirtless. It reminded her of every censor position of her and Aaron under the shower from the previous night.

'Woah! What a good start to my day.' She thought breathing in his masculine bergamot scent, 'He smells so good.' Another thought as her eyes wandered from his shoulders to his raising and dropping c.h.e.s.t to his calm breathing. 

She contemplated if she should remove the blanket to check out his abs. She decided not to get caught red-handed.

She never saw him sleep shirtless, even when they were not together and they were sleeping separately. 'Is he planning to seduce me early in the morning?'

Before she could plan on biting him awake, Aaron's hand slid under her waist and pulled her to his embrace. "It's too bright." He groggily complained about the sunlight spilling inside their room. He buried his face in her neck, slowly breathing in her scent.

Aarvi: "..."

'Where is my sweet good morning?' She pondered without caring she doesn't wish him morning either. 'Is he going to be the spoiled one?' She asked, "Aaron Rivas, where is your shirt?" 

"Good Morning, Sweetheart." He indulgently wished, wrapping his arm tighter causing her to coil her arms around him.

Aarvi: "..."

She looked at her arms and realized she was wearing his navy blue nightshirt and nothing underneath. She could practically feel his warm body. Before her thoughts could drift, he responded to her question, "You are wearing my shirt."

"You have a lot of nightwears."

"If I had picked a different one…" He pulled her away to face her. Aarvi supported herself on her elbows, looking down at him. He gently pinched her cheeks, "You would still be wearing my shirt."

Bewildered, "Are you saving the laundry?" She could only come up with that. Money? They weren't lacking.

Aaron watched her pink glowing face, she wasn't uncomfortable or angry seeing him shirtless, that's all mattered to him. He flashed her a s.e.xy smirk and brushed his nose against hers, "Maybe." 

She was so adorable, innocently blinking at him. His morning started off really well.

He got off the bed and went towards the bathroom. A playful glint flashed in his eyes. He turned around at the entrance of the bathroom. He watched Aarvi play with his shirt which was too big on her small frame. 

Obviously, she liked his shirt on her.

"Oh yeah," He caught her attention, "Honey, do you want the damn door?" He sweetly teased with a straight face using her words.

Aarvi looked at him just to remember everything of their night. 'Damn, why is this man making me blush so much?'

She grabbed the pillow and threw it at him. She snorted when he held the pillow and laughed heartily. He wanted to cuddle her more but damn, it's Monday.

…

Aaron had completed his workout in the gym and went to the balcony for a swim when he saw Aarvi go inside water for her breathing exercise after completing her yoga.

Aaron was about to enter the swimming pool, he noticed Shawn getting out to the balcony in gym wear and waved at him, "Morning bro."

Even though Aaron just nodded, his face had softened looking at his younger brother. Both didn't disturb Aarvi and Shawn handed his mobile to Aaron.

Aaron checked the report and status of Naomi's case as he heard Shawn, "Did you consider Little Heart's suggestion? Sister Naomi will lose her license if we don't intervene today." 

The Brown siblings had already forgiven Naomi but they are sticking with the case because of Aaron. The chief of the cardiology department didn't want Naomi to be in his team but he was also fine with letting go of Naomi after warning. Hence everything was depending on Aaron.

A part of Shawn pitied Naomi. She grew up with them so seeing her studies and career at stake, he wanted them to give her a chance as it was also Aarvi's choice.

Aaron cared nothing but Aarvi's stressless life without bothering about women who wanted to take her place to be in his life. So when it comes to Aarvi, he could become heartless to anybody, including his own grandfather.

The duo's eyes moved towards Aarvi who came up to the water surface. She took a calm, deep breath and went into the water without looking behind her.

Shawn knew his brother's worries. So he didn't pressure him with his opinion. Letting him go for the swim, he sipped his protein shake timing Aarvi's breath pattern. He was amused with her improvement.

Aarvi was surprised seeing Aaron leave without teasing her until her eyes laid on Shawn who was sipping his protein shake sitting at the edge of the pool.

She swam near Shawn and was about to greet him, he bopped her head. His voice was low enough to reach her ears, "You are so boring, Little Heart."

"Heh?" 

Shawn smacked her head taking her attention back, "You should be your boyfriend's eye candy, and here you are, ogling Bro." He sounded disappointed.

Aarvi: "..."

'While I watch, he eats me alive.' She thought without telling Shawn.

Her friend announced, worrying about her love life, "I will take you out shopping at noon. Stop wearing your grandmother's style clothes." Then he rushed inside to complete his work quickly.

Aarvi: "..."

Other than her swimsuit, all her clothes are trendy, and classy.. 'Dirty Little Prince, why do you want to spice up my love life?' She thought, shaking her head in resignation.

With Shawn and Dax, she never felt lacking in having a girl-best-friend. They always made sure to fill that space too.

Anyway, she cried after going inside her bedroom. She had forgotten about Shawn next door and hadn't covered her hickeys. 'How irresponsible of me.'

Instead of calming her down, Aaron kissed her - senseless, licked his lips watching her dazed, and went downstairs to prepare breakfast.

Aarvi and her poor little heart: "..."

At Harmon mansion,

Elder Harmon sat and had his breakfast watching the servants clean up the living hall which was completely broken down by none other than Leon Harmon. He had a delighted smile without a hint of empathy towards his grandson. 

The anxious butler who was sent away the previous day was busy organizing everything before Leon enters there for breakfast. Little did he know, Leon was going to be in another trouble.

Leon, who got fresh after his gym, entered the living hall in leisurewear. He had no plan to go to the office, the psychologist who was appointed to him would be home soon so he ignored the servants still arranging and went to the dining hall.

At the long dining table, he was welcomed to the moving smile of his grandfather whose eyes shone in a hint of victory. Leon was about to ground his teeth but remembered his anger issues. He flashed a fake smile and sat at the opposite end of the table.

He was about to flip the plate but the butler ran up to him and announced hurriedly. "Master, Major General is here with his team…" Before he could finish, loud military boots marched inside the mansion, alerting Leon.
