Aarvi really wanted to reveal what she does for a living other than loving the stupid man.

Anyway, Jordan was quick to come up with an easier suggestion for her. "Aarvi, if you are interested in the stock market, Shawn will help you learn. He had made a huge profit in his first year of investments..."

Shawn choked on his tea and started coughing. Aarvi quickly stood up to grab water for him but Shea was faster than her as she rubbed Shawn's back and helped him drink water.

For a second, everyone looked at Shea before they dispersed their thoughts. Aarvi sat back thinking, she was quick enough to react as Shawn was next to her. Unless Shea's focus was on Shawn, Shea couldn't have reacted faster than Aarvi.

Aarvi looked at Shea and studied her reactions. Shea was more concerned than Megan and carefully asked him if he was alright.

'Am I reading right?' Aarvi thought and looked away from Shea.

Shawn breathed and thanked Shea plainly.

Aarvi, who noticed Jordan's gaze on her, turned back to Shawn and asked teasingly, "Little Prince, could you please teach me about the stock market?"

Megan giggled when Aarvi left the knife at Shawn's neck.

Shawn held Aarvi's ear and revealed to his grandfather, "Grandfather, she is the one who used my money and tripled it."

Then he smacked her head as he added, "She has been my financial manager for six years now."

Aarvi rubbed her head and looked at Aaron hoping he would avenge his little brother for her but the man bopped her head.

Aarvi pouted her lips pitifully as she rubbed her head and ear while the elder one threw the knife at her.

"Grandfather, why don't you ask her the reason behind my rejection for her help?"

Jordan saw Megan, Karsen, and Connor controlling their laughter. Confused, Shea looked at them like they were foreign beings. Nikun had guessed what was going on.

"Aarvi, what do you do for a living?" He finally asked in a curious tone.

Aarvi sat straight and opened her forefinger, "I was investing in the stock market so I started off as a financial manager of Shawn's rotting money."

Jordan became all ears.

Then Aarvi's second finger popped up, "I worked as an advisor at my grandfather's company."

Jordan's eyebrow raised hearing 'her grandfather's company.' He glanced at Karsen as he tried to recall the events from the past.

He was too clever and swift to remember Karsen was praising a girl being expectational in business. "You- You are Kelly." It was a guess.

Confused little sheep was more disoriented hearing 'Kelly'.

Aarvi anyway would have told him sooner or later, since Jordan guessed on point, Aarvi didn't have the reason to hide it from him.

She bit her lower lip and nodded in acceptance that she is Kelly, now living as Aarvi Evans.

Aaron had thought she might not speak about it so soon. He was perfectly fine to leave her original identity behind and let her be the one who she is.

He was quick to intervene before Jordan or anybody else asked her anything more, "Let's not talk about it today." As he wrapped his hand around her shoulder.

They had a good day, he didn't want to ruin it for her by recalling their pathetic parents.

So far Jordan understood she wasn't a common girl. Sensing the reluctance in the air, he dropped off the topic and probed her, "Okay, next?" He was still curious.

Aarvi's third finger slowly popped up, "I am the co-owner of Highland." Shawn proudly nodded next to her.

Jordan all along thought it was Dax who supported his grandson's passion of DJ and bartender. It turned out to be another one who unconditionally stood by him.

Shawn popped the fourth finger of Aarvi's hand, and waved it at Jordan, "Little Heart is the mysterious President and founder of Skylar Industries, which is soon stepping into the International market."

Aarvi carefully watched the expressions of elders.

Megan gasped in surprise, she had no idea about it.

Karsen had guessed it, now he was proud of the girl who he had really hoped to grow in the business world.

Shea had a question, 'Didn't Grandfather Rivas know it before?'

Jordan was stunned even before he had heard about Skylar. He was thrilled knowing she was so low profile.

His hand lifted at her to stop her from speaking anything. He asked to confirm, "You are Twyla, hence Aaron escorted you inside personally."

Aarvi admitted, "Yes, Grandfather. I am Twyla."

Jordan looked at Aaron and scorned, "Her identity is not just your everything. She is a lot more." There was a hint of appreciation in his tone.

All chuckled hearing him while Aarvi discerned Aaron had given her the identity of, 'His everything.' when speaking with Jordan.

She mumbled for Aaron to hear, "My new identity is enticing."

Jordan probed again, "And next?"

Aaron pulled her to his arms and opened all her five fingers of her right hand, "The owner of the Flower valley at Mocon backwaters."

Aarvi: "..."

She didn't want to shock Jordan directly by saying about Skylar hence she started as she had the foundation. She had no plans to tell every little thing.

Pulling her hand off, she concluded, "There is nothing much significant."

Excluding Aaron, all responded in unison, "Oh yeah, please…"

Aarvi: "..."

Karsen advised with a controlled smile, "Aaron, don't offend Skylar."

"Be on good books." Jordan followed in a stern voice.

"Be her sweet little pet." Nikun joined but his teasing tone was wry.

"Keep her stomach filled with cupcakes." Shawn pinched her cheek.

Aarvi hastily asked, seeing their warm liveliness turn grave and wary of their behavior, "You all are kidding, right?" she was bemused.

All stood up and went towards the mansion making Aarvi leap around them saying she won't do anything to them, Rivas is too big for her to trouble or if they misunderstood anything.

Nikun recalled how 'Ava Kelly' used to go around Aaron. He whispered to Aaron looking at Aarvi, "Her coldness is her protection. She is still the same."

Aaron didn't respond, he watched her following them.

The whole family continued to bully Aarvi throughout the dinner.

The four elders reluctantly bid five adults. Shea went with Nikun, Aaron and Aarvi left in their car and Shawn took his car back to Skyarc without knowing Aarvi had prepared for his next punishment.

----

At Skyarc penthouse,

Aarvi followed Aaron in the closet like a little obedient girlfriend seeking his permission to go out. She knotted the tie when he handed her, then she jutted her lips, blinking her eyelashes a little more frequently.

Aaron didn't fall for her tricks. Wrapping his hands around her waist, he pecked on her pink soft petal-like lips, "Rest here... Please."

Aarvi reluctantly agreed as it was between Harmon, Merton, Morris, and Rivas Industries. "Come soon." She acted cute to make him return sooner.

----

At Morris hotel,

Shea got ready for the Highland club and left in the white Maserati. Aaron and Nikun had assured her she would be safe and sound, asking her to be as normal as possible.

Wade Merton, who didn't want to waste time waiting in the Highland, was at her hotel. He noticed exiting the hotel in a stunning red short, backless dress.

The previous night, he had just treated her as prey. Looking at her slender legs on red stilettos, dress hugging her curves, his eyes filled with lust.

He assumed she was doing everything to get him. Who was he to waste her efforts? A cunning smile appeared on his lips. 

She was hot, he was lustful. Seeing her driving out the car all alone, he bypassed Leon's plan.
