138 Hard to solve

Naomi who purposefully fell on her face on the soft floor rug pulled a pained expression, "Ms. Evans, why did you trip me?"

Her yelp and the bride's cry had already attracted all the eyes on them so they couldn't understand why would Aarvi trip Naomi and pour herself a glass of wine. No sane person would do that.

Naomi, who raised her head hoping to see the ugly face of Aarvi, met Dax and Shawn's brooding gaze. 'Aarvi was right here, where did she go?'

Just then another voice sounded, "Ms. Evans, your dress…"

Aarvi cut in before the bride could touch her, "Don't…" She didn't finish her words and the bride stopped. The bride was very grateful for Aarvi and also sad looking at the gorgeous gown stained in red.

That's when Naomi looked in front to see Aarvi's flawlessly milky white skin at neck dripping the wine that flew down staining the plain ivory gown.

Even though Aarvi knew Naomi doesn't like her, she didn't mind it. She wasn't living to please everyone or gain favor. But she didn't like how her actions were disturbing the wedding and emotions of the bride. 

Naomi still wanted to blame Aarvi to avoid others laughing at her clumsiness but she had overestimated herself.

Shawn noticed the senior doctor in the hall and smirked, "Sister Naomi, look at how clumsy you are. Now I am scared to refer you to any of my friends in need."

That picked the right ears that need to be heard and Naomi flustered. She was still an assistant surgeon and never got a chance to lead an operation. What Shawn said could really affect her career.

She desperately wanted to justify to save her skin"No, Shawn. I was careful. It's that Ms. Evans stretched her…"

"Leg?" Dax cut in coldly trembling Naomi who forced herself to keep calm watching them from the floor. "Doctor Fisher, do we look like dumb or blind? Why will she trip and pour wine on herself?"

"..." Aarvi was trying to subdue the mess created by Naomi but her two friends were out on seeking justice for her. 'Oh my musketeers, I am proud of you.' She laughed to herself.

Naomi saw others giving smiles and nods of gratitude at Aarvi while she wanted everyone to hate her, blame her, and curse her. And she wanted others to feel pity and sympathy for herself but got a furrowed and disgruntled gazes with none helping her up.

Actually many would have helped her if she hadn't started blaming Aarvi and just put on her act of tripping herself.

Naomi instinctively wanted to enter back the room but Aarvi uttered coldly while her expression was placid as a summer sea. "Naomi Fisher."

Naomi uttered before Aarvi could even ask anything, "Ms. Evans, I really felt something at my leg when I fell down. I didn't mean to blame you."

Aarvi crossed her arms and leaned back on the railing gazing at Naomi. If Aarvi really wanted to play Naomi, she could easily make sure to ruin her whole career and fall her down in everyone's gaze. 

Truthfully, Aarvi felt Naomi's actions justified because whether she loves Aaron or his looks or his status, she was possessive of Aaron. It was common to be jealous of Aarvi who entered Aaron's life out of nowhere when Noami silently waited for Aaron.

Maybe Aarvi went through too much. She is mature enough to think openly hence she pitied Naomi instead of getting angered. "Ms. Fisher, you should confess to Aaron. There is nothing wrong with taking a step and telling you about your feelings." Her tone carried no emotion, not even coldness. 

Then Aarvi turned and left without a word extra after gazing at the astonishment of Naomi. She hoped Naomi would confess and hear Aaron's response. It would be helpful for her to move on or know she doesn't have a chance.

She cared to advise Naomi because she wasn't as evil as she needed punishment. If she chooses the wrong path and tries to provoke her, she is ready to shun her.

Naomi who stood and watched Aarvi disappear from the sight heard a light cough and turned to see Shawn and Dax leaning lazily standing.

Shawn hummed first, "Sister Naomi, Little heart is right." He knew why Aarvi advised Naomi when she could have shunned Naomi permanently, "Troubling her doesn't get you anything." Shawn walked away hoping Naomi doesn't ruin their years of relationship with her pettiness.

However Dax wasn't soft-hearted, "Doctor Fisher, you know nothing about Dum Dum so don't assume." He straightened his cuffs and walked off warning her coldly, "You will never know when you will be in the grave if you continue this."

In the place of understanding their words, Naomi felt insulted by three. She also assumed the boy who used to talk to her with a smile was looking down on her due to Aarvi. She justified Shawn's action to herself, 'Aarvi definitely manipulated Shawn.'

She was the right example of a dog's tails that can never be straight.

Aarvi who entered the villa feeling pity for the beautiful gown saw Aaron still working. Aaron furrowed his brows as soon as she went to his sight, "What happened?"

Jutting her lower lip, "Spilled wine." She said like a baby who slipped the chocolate to the ground.

Aaron's mood quickly cleared seeing her action and cued her to go near him. Aarvi went to him guilelessly, "What's wrong? Need my help."

The man lifted his hand when she lowered behind the couch to gaze at the laptop screen. He grazed her neck where it was stained and licked his finger leaving her completely speechless.

"It's dry," Aaron uttered seeing her jaws dropping down. His hands itched to wrap his arm around her waist and lay her on his lap to taste the wine directly but he didn't do it. 

Aarvi tried to find a word to scold him but for unknown reasons, all words felt like a compliment to him. 'Pervert?' he would love to be called perve for her. 'Shameless?' He would definitely say he hadn't shown his brazenness yet.

'Wasn't I the one who always won against him? Why am I losing to his shamelessness?' She thought glaring at him while he waited for her reaction.

Aaron expected her to shy away but the lady moved near him. 'She will just pretend to kiss.' He thought and waited for her to hover near him and leave.

Aarvi went to him and saw there was no anticipation so she pressed her lips on his cheek causing him to react for the third… fourth kiss for the day. But the next second she pushed him down on the couch pressing her lips on his cheek harder and made a loud smacking kiss.

'Muah'

Aaron: "..."

He watched her who victoriously went to the bathroom for leaving him speechless. Now, he was sure his life was going to be full of his Cupcake's craziness...

In the reception, Aarvi agreed to dance for the bride and groom's request. She had thought she would be dancing with Dax or Shawn but Shawn pushed Aaron demanding a tango but had to adjust with the salsa.

Naomi didn't pull her any more tricks and the reception completed the jovial.

Aaron returned in the helicopter in which he had reached in the morning while the friends preferred a road trip full of madness.

It was Monday.

Aarvi and Aaron normally got ready and sat for breakfast. Aaron sulked seeing Aarvi's left hand working on her tab as she ate.

Melia wanted to tell Aarvi that the man was waiting for her attention but seeing her seriousness, she didn't cut in.

It was nearing the end when Aaron finally spoke, "Ms. Evans, are you going to dive into your tab?"

Aarvi turned to the man pushing the tab in front of him, "Send me the investigation reports."

Aaron's brows furrowed realizing she was checking the news of the cabinet minister who was shot and Aaron performed the surgery on him.

After the operation, the minister was under observation for forty-eight hours before they could confirm if he was going to live or die or face any other complications. During this time somebody had sneaked inside the Intensive care unit and messed the instruments that were supporting the minister's life.

Even though the doctors in the military hospital quickly took control, the life of the minister is in grave danger by the disturbance and they requested Aaron to report it to the President of the country. 

Aaron had only accepted to operate on the patient and keep track of the follow-up but not to be a scapegoat of carelessness so he turned down feeling the situation really suspicious.

But Aarvi tracking this case doesn't look quite normal. Is she behind something? Did Minister offend her? Or is she behind the mishaps at the military hospital? Aaron got numerous questions gazing at Aarvi but he failed to read anything.

She is always a big puzzle hard to solve.
