105 Pay me with your body

He didn't worry nor took them lightly. Choosing one was never in his dictionary. If he selects the Rivas family over Aarvi, then he wasn't Aaron at all, if he selects Aarvi over the family then he wasn't fitted to be called the Rivas.

He responded to the question with a twist, "Grandfather, Aarvi is a family to me hence the family I choose has her."

Jordan was inarticulate and thought, 'What was I thinking? Winning on my grandson? Didn't I want a grandson loaded with smartness?' He felt like he was making fun of himself when he was the one who pampered his elder grandson, watching him grow strong and smart.

Megan was awestruck at her son. Aaron didn't and never disappointments her in anything he does.

Aaron continued looking at his grandfather who was still thinking how to separate the duo and win on his grandson, "I can prioritize though..."

Jordan's lips twitched hearing it. Without another word, he knew who Aaron would prioritize because they were the ones who taught him that way. A girl leaves her parents and her world to enter a new alien world of her husband and it is the husband's responsibility to pamper her, make her comfortable in the new life.

Jordan felt like whatever they taught Aaron was backfiring him and he didn't have the right to refute. He really wanted to retort as 'You guys aren't married to prioritize her.' But he didn't dare to say it thinking Aaron might leave and return in less than an hour with marriage certificates in hand.

Aaron was capable of that but he was waiting for Aarvi. He knew well Aarvi wouldn't marry him unless she could love him back wholeheartedly.

Megan cut off Aaron and cheered what he would have affirmed, "Gigglemug comes first then us." Then she advised, "She doesn't have anybody other than us now, so lower your work and spend more time with her."

Aaron faintly smiled as a response to Megan before looking at Jordan who really doubted if they were his family or Aarvi's family. Instead of acknowledging her as Aaron's woman, he felt like she should accept him.

"She has no identity, other than following you and seducing you, she is nothing." Despite knowing Aaron would counter, he failed to stop himself from saying and believed that she is nothing without Aaron.

"Her identity is My Everything..." Then he continued about 'seducing' "Yeah, your grandson is failing to seduce her."

Megan tried to bury it however she let out laughter patting Aaron's back, "Try harder..." Then she whispered as she giggled, "Shawn masters at it, ask him for tips." She shook her head helplessly imagining Aarvi ignoring Aaron.

Jordan knew they understood what he meant and was rendered speechless by their behavior. He was helpless against Aaron in his Cupcake's matter hence he decided to send Aarvi away from Aaron. 

"Exactly, without you she is nothing and I will not acknowledge her." Jordan snarled.

"Alright, no issues..." Aaron stood up and straightened his cuffs, "Aunty Megan, Dad, and uncle will be at home on Saturday so please make some time if possible. I will bring Aarvi..." Then he looked at Jordan whose lips were twitching hearing the 'Alright'.

Jordan expected to hear Aaron request him to meet Aarvi and talk to her. That way Jordan thought to send her away but he didn't get to hear it instead, "Grandfather, please stay in your room or outhouse or go to the farmhouse if you don't want to see her." 

Jordan: "..."

Megan successfully controlled her giggles but her face turned red visibly. Nobody would dare to go against Jordan excluding Aaron, similarly, nobody would dare to ask him to stay away from his own house as Aaron did.

Jordan hissed, "You damned boy, how dare you send me out of my own home? I am not going anywhere."

Aaron shrugged, "Good to know." He was leaving the mansion playing Jordan speechless but Megan took him upstairs to the family living room and asked everything about how he found Aarvi and what is their current relationship.

Aaron was patient with her as he would be with his own mother so he briefed everything to hear her happily cheering him to make Aarvi his sooner the better. It was evening when he left the Rivas family mansion for Avron mansion.

--- At Avron mansion ---

As soon as he alighted the car, his first question to the maid who was cleaning the garden, "Aarvi?"

The maid quickly bowed as she responded, "Young master, Miss is in the backyard swing."

Aaron didn't respond and entered the mansion to go behind it. He was glad Aarvi loved it and uses it. He was dismayed to see Milo Wen chatting with Melia as he worked. 

Milo Wen quickly stood up and greeted, "President Rivas." Melia warmly wished, "Young master, you are home. Shall I ask the chef to prepare for dinner?"

Aaron responded to Melia first, "No, I will cook." Then his gaze went to Milo who understood and reported, "Ms. Evans asked me to get all the files that need your attention..." Then his gaze went on the slowly moving swing, "She worked on them till now and dozed off."

She had her own work, Aaron couldn't understand why she was stressing over his work. "You can leave." Then he went to the swing to see her peacefully sleeping but she woke up when he tried to move the laptop and files away.

Lazy to sit up, Aarvi yawned and stretched her hand towards him to pull her up but the man misunderstood and got on the swing next to her and pinched her cheeks, "Shouldn't you rest instead of working?"

Aarvi blinked a few times before asking, "Why are you sitting here? This is my swing."

Aaron: "..."

The cupcakes and now the swing added in?! He can't let swing get ahead of him, "Fine, cupcakes are canceled." He pettily scoffed.

Aarvi licked her lips and pulled him back seeing his act of getting off, "I will share this swing with you."

Aaron bobbed her head and leaned on the cage while she took his office file and handed it to him, "You should invest in this project but I have marked seven clauses, make sure to recheck them and modify to your benefit. They have used the brain to tempt you to get your investment but these clauses are dangerous and could be used..."

Aaron heard her as he opened the file to check the project file but was astonished to see her snuggle up and lean on him as she pointed at the file wherever she had marked and where he should pay attention to.

He wasn't sure if she came to his arms unintentionally or willingly. He gently adjusted her as he wrapped his arm around her so that both could easily see the file.

She had gone through each of the files hence she briefed about the project with it's the pro and cons. If he hadn't gone to the mansion, he would have heard his employees presenting while going through the files, now he doesn't have to pack his next day schedule as everything was done alone by Aarvi.

Half an hour passed talking about the different projects when Aaron mused, "How about you work for me from tomorrow? I like this working style."

She raised her head and realized how they were sitting... No, she was reclining on him the whole time. It proved to her that she can be more than casual with Aaron, so she played along without getting embarrassed.

She volunteered to lure him, "I am not so easy to poach. How are you going to entice me to work for you?" 

Aaron was amused looking at her active and cheeky hence he offered a really attractive one only reserved for her, "Myself!"

Aarvi brows raised hearing him. It was hard to reject a proposition so she took the chance and climbed on top of him. Her fingers grazed his jawline looking at him in the eye and her alluring voice was like melting honey evoking his desires, "I might accept if you are going to pay me with your body."

Then she went closer as her fingertips continued to freely graze at his neck. Her tilted head, soft eyes on him with a bewitching smile, he tempted to kiss her ruby delicate lips when there was hardly any space left.
