Chapter 313 - Grandfather



It was the first time she tried to escape and it wasn't the last. 

Her health was like a see-saw game. If she was fine now, she might not be healthy in the next hour. Her immune system was so weak that her body wasn't able to handle a few seconds of cold air. Hence she frequently fell ill.

When she was hospitalized due to unstable heartbeats, Aaron had taken her out for a small walk at dawn seeing her bored looking out of the window while he was working.

She was trying to walk in the garden of Rivas hospital in the evening. Aaron never let anybody take care of her but him so he was right behind her even if he had to push all his work later.

His mobile rang, probably it was an important call that made him pause his footsteps behind her. She noticed him looking at the other side unaware she walked ahead.

It had been more than a month, she couldn't get to meet her grandfather so she ran out.

She had reached the main gate when a jarring honk of the car sounded behind her. She felt her head spin by it as it had been a long time since she heard a loud noise. The driver didn't seem to care that she was holding her head, he continued to honk until she fainted at the gate.

Aaron, who had realized she wasn't around, was searching for her when he heard a honk. He had rushed towards the gate to see her holding her head but the horn continued. Before Aaron could reach she had fallen down.

What she didn't know after it was, the driver lost his license, paid a hefty fine to the hospital, and was imprisoned for a few months for just honking.

Her escape repeated many times but each time Aaron brought her back. And every time Aarvi huddled in the bedroom thinking he was going to lash out at her but he never raised his voice, neither asked where and why she was running out.

After some more time, she couldn't hold it and just walked out of the mansion. No questions came, instead, Aaron followed her silently with a car at a short distance from them.

She didn't know Aaron was trying to force her to speak. He wanted her to ask where she wants to go, what she wants but she never did.

Whereas she wanted him to leave her alone so that she could ask mobile from somebody and call her grandfather or brother.

After a small course of distance, she was tired so she walked back and sat in the car completely aware he wasn't going to ask her nor leave her alone.

That day she threw a huge tantrum by throwing everything including food. She had missed lunch that way and it was nearing dinner time. So Aaron baked cupcakes and fed her forcefully.

She liked it so much that she couldn't bring herself tossing them away. So she pulled the cupcakes tray in front of her and ate more than 10 cupcakes but the one who looked happy was Aaron.

Seeing him staring at her with his sexy smirk on his face, Aarvi blushed in embarrassment but didn't stop filling her empty stomach.

However, she again tried to escape when they had gone to the hospital. She was taking such a short time to escape that Aaron just needed to eye somewhere for a few seconds.

Aarvi had reached a public park that day and asked for mobile from a few as she didn't have money to take a taxi. None helped her easily and a man started touching her inappropriately, after handing her the mobile. She couldn't call but shoved mobile to him and ran aside.

It again repeated and she noticed a few men watching her. Frightened, she ran away again and hid well when those men tried to look for her.

More than an hour had passed when somebody moved the bush away and kneeled in front of her. She was able to control her scream because it was Aaron who sighed in relief.

She thought he would be annoyed but he still held the soft tone, "You got scratches on your face. Are you hurt anywhere else?"

She pursed her lips and watched him like he was from a different world. Everyone around them had lost patience but he patiently waited for her to respond.

Pushing her left foot front, she showed him the torn slipper and her heel having dried blood marks.

He carefully carried her to the car, sat her on the edge of the seat. After applying cream on her face scratches, he again kneeled outside placing her left foot on his knee, and disinfected the cut. 

She didn't know which moment exactly she felt, but she didn't want to escape from him anymore. If he wanted something from her or wanted to take advantage of her, he would have done it a long back without having to put up with her.

He was one who protects and cares but not harm.

She dusted his pants when he stood up, passing him the water bottle to wash his hands and took the first aid box from his hand. She saw him surprised, hiding his sliver line of happiness but she didn't show much of a reaction.

Another month passed by, she obediently heard him, sometimes made a fuss but never tried to escape. Melia started telling her about the nine months and was accompanying her when Aaron used to be very busy with work.

Recovering her health, she still craved to meet Hayden and Zain but never spoke anything with others.

Aaron had taken her to the Rivas Industries as she won't do anything all day other than reading. He had expected her to ask mobile, but she hadn't.

She had dozed off on the couch when Aaron had a meeting so he left her trusting her she won't run away again. He didn't want to ask his people to keep an eye on her like a criminal so he had avoided that.

But when she woke up and found herself alone. She tried to time pass but her mood frequently drifted to her grandfather and Zain. She called her grandfather but he didn't answer. She called his office number and got to know he was in a meeting.

Her eyes fell on Aaron's wallet, she took a sticky note and wrote, 'I will contact you soon. Thank you.' Sticking it on the monitor, she took a single currency note and left.

She wasn't escaping this time, she was willing to see him back but after meeting her grandfather.

She left Rivas Industries and went straight to Kelly International. Shoving the note to the taxi driver, she stood in front of Kelly International and finally felt home.

Nevertheless, she had taken just two steps when she saw Hayden having a professional smile while seeing off Leon Harmon. 

She froze.

Leon wasn't alone, out of seven who had tortured her in the Shipyard warehouse, five were standing right there laughing and talking. Chief in Police; Brodie Powell and Vance Hays weren't there.

Her eyes stung terribly looking at one who was laughing like he heard the funniest joke ever.
