"Ms.Evans"

"How are you?"

"It's been a long time, Miss."

Aarvi nodded at three doctors who greeted her. "Hello! I'm doing good. Thank you."

Since they knew Aarvi is a completely reserved person, they didn't think much about it but Aaron really wished she should try to get along with somebody at least. He would be really happy if it's him.

"Doctor Rivas, Chairman was lecturing us with your name today." Doctor Holmes complained about Shawn's father.

"Why aren't we partying?" Doctor Green was disappointed.

"Aaron, Congratulations." Naomi Fisher's pleasant voice rang.

Naomi studied with Aaron from the school to a Master's in medicine. They were practically together for the maximum amount of time. When everyone thought she was around Aaron due to the Fisher and Rivas families, only Shawn knows Naomi loves Aaron.

Aaron merely nodded disinfecting Aarvi's cutleries personally.

Naomi enviously looked at Aarvi who sat as if there was nobody around her and she looked serene as if she was watching a spring garden full of flowers next to a beautiful lake.

Naomi had thought nobody could come between her and Aaron but didn't expect Aarvi to take up his whole life. She used to be close to Aaron but as soon as he returned to Mocon, his change in behavior kept everyone away including her.

She thought she could work with him but heard Aaron took over the business and rarely entered the hospital. Now her family and the Rivas family are talking about marriage alliance so she is patiently waiting for it to proceed.

Shawn poked in bored by their nonsense, "I am playing tonight. So eat up and join the floor."

Holmes and Green cheered instantly. Working day and night, they were dead single and bored as hell. Naomi faintly smiled and said worriedly, "But Ms. Evans doesn't like crowded places."

Aarvi merely glanced at her. Even though she sounded worried, it had an underlying meaning saying Aarvi is a nuisance. Aarvi didn't care about her opinion.

Shawn was about to poke Aarvi but the latter's glare froze his hand. Shawn was taking it back but tugged her hair down swiftly, "Heartless girl."historical

Aarvi slightly raised her brows which choked Shawn. He knew she wasn't a little white swan anymore. He pulled his hair himself, "Happy?"

Aarvi tried her best to suppress her smile but it left her lips which didn't go unnoticed by others at the dining table. Shawn patted himself and messaged Dax while Holmes and Green smiled seeing her. Aaron was satisfied for the day.

Naomi's gaze darkened. It was her first time seeing Aarvi's smile which even captivated her for a good few seconds. That smile was like a bud blooming to a beautiful flower on the first rays of the sun in the early morning dew. Either you will admire her or fall for her.

She looked at herself. She was dressed for a night party, her dress hugged her curves but she still gave off a mature aura. Aarvi who was younger was in an evening gown. Even if the elegant gown was simple, she looked undeniably pleasing to the eyes.

Aarvi's mobile beeped, she picked it to check, [Bunny, we will video chat from tomorrow. It's final, I don't want a rebuff.]

Aarvi glanced at Shawn and sighed. She had denied identifying him in the beginning but seeing his soar and worried face she had accepted telling him that her memory is intact.

If Dax flirts with her to bring a smile, Shawn behaves like a child to get that smile. And those two were deadly serious and ruthless when it's about business.

When Aarvi, Dax, and Shawn completed their business management studies in Country U and returned, she was looking for a company to acquire and Shawn didn't want to join Rivas Industries which would kill all his time.

So Aarvi and he invested fifty-fifty in the Bar and Restaurant called Highlands because Shawn was a DJ and a famous Bartender in country U. For the Bar and restaurants, it was important to have proper security protocol so he also took care of Rivas Security Service.

Whereas Dax Grant wasn't from the upper class so he wanted to find a job. Aarvi offered the job he readily agreed even before Aarvi acquired a company.

Then Aarvi disappeared and now three friends don't hang out much together because that will raise suspicion on Aarvi leading to her old and real identity. Anyway, Aarvi seldom agreed to meet anybody.

Shawn wanted to smack the doctors' heads hearing their casual talk turn to medicine. He tugged Aarvi's dress and smiled.

Aarvi nodded unhurriedly allowing him to talk but she was speechless hearing him talk about the new branch of Highlands. After hearing about the issues Aarvi and he discussed themes and ideas to attract the customers.

Their celebration dinner became a work talk dinner without their known.

Naomi smiled, keeping Aaron engaged with the topic which Aarvi couldn't understand and heard Aaron speak about it.

'She is easier to cast aside.' Naomi mocked her in mind gently smiling at Aaron who didn't spare a glance at her other than explaining about the case.

At the end of dinner, The patissier personally brought a cake for Aaron.

Aaron glared at Shawon who responded in a swift, "It wasn't me." Then his finger pointed to Aarvi who was looking aside where fireworks were lighting the dark sky.

Aaron actually believed it but still felt weird to cut the cake looking at it. Aarvi saw him looking at the cake with a complex expression so asked without knowing, "What's wrong?"

Thinking Aarvi might feel bad, Aaron cut the cake without seeing Shawn controlling his laughter.

Feeling like a kid cutting the birthday cake while five clapped, he cued the waiter to serve to all while he served Aarvi ignoring another side where Naomi's plate was in the air thinking Aaron was giving her.

Shawn really felt bad for Naomi but he really wanted his brother and Little heart to be together.

Shawn had no idea 'Little Cupcake' of Aaron was Aarvi else he would have informed him that Aarvi was studying in the same college as him which could have avoided their three years of being apart.

...

Aarvi wanted to leave asking them to enjoy the night but if she leaves, Aaron will leave with her so she decided to sit nearby silently.

The slow music was resonating in the hall with couples grooving on the dance floor intimately. Naomi knew Aarvi hated touch or hold on her so she took a chance and asked Aaron, "Aaron, shall we dance?"

Aaron saw Aarvi passing by, "Ask the other two, I need Aarvi." He bluntly said.

Naomi didn't get to react.

Aaron smoothly glided his hand to Aarvi's hand, he skillfully twirled her to the dancefloor and held her in his arm to see the widened eyes twinkling by the lights reminding the starry sky.

Naomi smugly smiled waiting to see a good show thinking whether Aarvi was going to push him or push him and slap or create a huge scene. She really wants to see the disgusted look on Aarvi's face at Aaron.

She immediately started recording a video to send it to Elder Rivas so that he could deal with Aarvi soon.
