All were admiring how well Aaron and Aravi were complimenting each other giving feast to their eyes. Shawn's smile was unwavering, he didn't expect the dance could bring them a little closer. He could feel Aarvi accepting his brother slowly.
Naomi Fisher tried her best and put on a sweet smile as if she was enjoying their dance while she felt her blood boiling. 'This bitch just acts untouchable but here she is dancing in his embrace. Well played Aarvi Evans, you are days are coming to end soon.'
After obtaining their sensual moves recorded, she stuffed her mobile in her bag. Since she is Aaron's friend, bodyguards hadn't confiscated her mobile.
Aarvi felt short on breath and dizzy. She felt hard to move her body hence having no choice, she grabbed his blazer trying to speak.
Aaron realized she is exhausted. He cued to cut off the music and held her arm, "Aarvi!" His hand checked her pulse rate while she leaned on him and voiced breathlessly, "I... I can't... breathe... dizzy... dar..." 'dark.'
Aaron quickly caught her in his arms. Her pulse rate was too high and breathing was irregular. He raised his left-hand till his ear overturned his palm once. All the bodyguards quickly formed a human wall around two to avoid everyone's vision.
The audience was giving them a round of applause thinking dance ended but froze without understanding what happened.
While they murmured, Aaron carried Aarvi to the nearest booth and fanned her with a menu card administrating her pulse. If it doesn't settle, he will have to admit her to the hospital to know the real cause. "Prepare the car."
Except for Shawn, the bodyguards didn't allow anybody to cross them. Even Naomi tried to reason but failed.
"Bro, what happened suddenly?" Shawn brought water and sprinkled on Aarvi's face and passed it to Aaron to help her drink.
Aaron smacked his head, "There is a reason why music has a form. Aarvi's medication is controlled just a few weeks back, how can she dance more than ten minutes for intense moves."
Shawn's lips twitched. He agrees he made a mistake but, "Then why didn't you stop her?"
"I did but she continued to win on the bet."
Aarvi groaned lightly waking up and saw two brothers and backs of a row of guards covering them. 'Total embarrassment!' She wanted the ground to swallow her as she straightened her back from leaning on Aaron.
Aaron held medicines for her to take. She obediently ate it and heard Shawn say, "Dumb girl, why did you dance till you lost your senses?"
Aarvi didn't respond.
"Dreaming of the gym?" Aaron's voice sounded uncanny.
Aarvi said with a straight face without showing she was actually embarrassed to death in front of Rivas brothers, "Yoga is good."
Shawn burst into laughter earning a kick from her while Aaron just smiled and his hand subconsciously reached her head but realized it quicker and stood up, "Let's go home." He was glad they weren't visiting the hospital.
Aarvi nodded and stood up but felt her leg wobbly and instinctively held Aaron which panicked him "Are you alright?" His hand again reached to check her pulse.
"My legs are jelly." It had been four years since she danced and she wasn't physically active for a long time so she understood why Aaron always bombarded her saying about health.
Shawn didn't laugh this time and ordered Aaron, "Bro, carry her. What are you looking at?"
Aaron merely raised his brows, Shawn ran away. Aaron had clearly told him to behave and not to overdo just because he knew his little cupcake is Aarvi but Shawn always had fun teasing Aaron.
"Can you walk?"
Aarvi nodded feeling her legs relaxed. Aaron walked right next to her in case she feels dizzy and needs support.
Naomi put on a good lady smile and went to her in worry. "Ms.Evans, What happened to you? Are you alright?"
Frowning, Aarvi instinctively moved away from her hands.
Aaron warned the very next second, "Naomi."
Grounding her teeth, she forced a guileful smile, "I forgot for a movement. I'm sorry, I didn't mean..."
Aarvi always felt Naomi as complicated. She walked out without a response leaving Naomi in an awkward position while Aaron followed Aarvi.
"Don't drive. Get in my car."
Aarvi obliged due to her ankle pain. Both left for the waterfront villa.
Naomi clenched her fist glaring at Aarvi's back. She was sure Aarvi was putting on a show for Aaron's attention. She wanted to show Aarvi's true colors so she started to work on it.
Doctor Holmes and Green had got girls and were busy flirting with them so they didn't notice Naomi. Shawn thought Naomi is heartbroken, he wanted to tell her to give up but he didn't want to complicate things between Naomi, Aarvi, and Aaron.
He played some mixes cheering the mood in the club and enjoyed till midnight before going to the penthouse of Skyarc towers where he lived alone.

In Aeon's condo
Aeon looked like a complete mess sitting on the couch in front of Jayce who was tired of calming him down.
"Aeon, legal process or settlement, both will take a toll on us. We already have to be thankful that Skylar didn't publish a statement for this... Shall I meet that girl... I mean President Evans?"
Aeon had received the bill payment details. He couldn't fetch the black card details due to high security but he got to know that the girl is Evans.
"I told her to get off my face. Do you think she will talk to me? She clearly mocked me saying 'Don't look for her.' Ugh, what the hell is going on in my life? From three years, everything is going wrong."
Jayce looked at Parker's Heritage twenty-seven years old Bourbon on the table which was sent by Highlands. He tried to bury his laughter but started laughing, "She is quite a character. Such an expensive drink on the second meet. How does she look?"
Aeon looked at his friend in annoyance. "She looks like a scrap. Do you want her?"
Jayce believed it, "Really?" He had thought rich people look flawless.
Aeon: "..." He was really speechless. He couldn't believe his friend was worried about the looks of President Evans instead of the company.
Jayce rolled his eyes, "Your brother already sent the cheque to pay the fine and to solve the Amiah's crisis."
He kept cheque on the coffee table and continued, "I thought you would get angry so I didn't show it to you thinking to meet that President or CEO or the legal team."
Aeon checked the number of zeros on the cheque. He was impressed. His brother will go to any length to save him from the problem.
Jayce continued in a convincing tone, "Instead of bowing and begging that girl, why not brother's support? Aeon, think wisely, and solve this quicker."
Aeon gave it a thought and felt Jayce was right. Solving the Skylar issue without having to face that annoying president sounded like a good deal. "You are right. Why dance on her fingertips when we can kick her aside?"
Jayce finally beamed when the problem solved, "Exactly!"
