The Rivas were acquainted with a limited number of families including the business associates so the guests were comparatively less than other family parties. 

Yet, there were more arrivals than usual. The youngsters and elders of the families were all there due to the news circulating about Aarvi Evans and to know the girlfriend of Aaron. It was expected so the arrangements were made accordingly.

Karsen, Megan, and Shawn were first to grace the carpet and face the reporters. Like always, they looked more refined than luxurious. 

Megan was in a cream-colored sleeveless short dress that comfortably fit around her slender body. The intricate work of lace at the shoulder and waist gave a delicate look to her appearance. The same colored wrap shawl was stylishly wrapped around her shoulder. To her subtle, noble appearance, she had added heavy diamond earrings and a bracelet to complete her look.

To complement his wife, Karsen was also in a cream contrasting with the earthy brown tone. His appearance didn't only show his strong bond with his wife, he was also reserved and sharp.

Given an option, Shawn would have loved to skip the formal suit to a trendy jacket. But he had chosen his outfit accordingly to avoid being out of place. Shawn was in a stylish double-breasted navy blue blazer. While his blazer was buttoned up, the shirt was unbuttoned giving a sneak peek at his sculpted chest.

The questions about the accident at Coasta, Aaron, his girlfriend, and Aarvi Evans were carelessly aimed at them anticipating a response that could be new headlines. Megan had a gentle smile while Shawn had a sexy smirk and Karsen carried a faint smile facing them. 

Once the voice slowly lowered, Shawn responded on behalf of his parents, "Have some patience for the surprise. Have a good evening." The trio nodded before they entered the grand venue.

Megan asked as soon as they crossed the lobby, "Where are GiggleMug and my son? Will they be able to make it?" 

Karsen chuckled looking at his wife's excitement, Shawn took her to the elevator as they responded, "Mom, this is the fifth time you are asking about those two."

Karsen and Shawn chuckled while Megan snorted and took her mobile from Karsen to drop a message to Aarvi asking where did they reach. It was the seventh message to Aarvi yet the latter patiently responded to Megan sending a picture of her surroundings.

Followed by them was Connor with Shea Morris. Initially, they wanted to send Shea with Shawn but that would create unnecessary rumors and it could trouble Shea so Connor escorted her to the party instead of letting her be alone. 

Nikun was busy studying Leon's case so he wasn't going and his parents were attending on behalf of the Morris family. It had still been a long time.

The media didn't know who Shea was. So they got crazily excited assuming Aaron was in city Coasta hence his girlfriend is with his father-in-law. Since Shea was gorgeous, it wasn't their mistake to get their assumption.

Shea softly chortled as she spoke to Connor, "Uncle Connor, hadn't I told you, these reporters will misunderstand?"

Connor had a warm smile patting Shea's hand that was hooked around his arm, "Then enjoy the limelight."

Shea controlled her grin when a thought crossed her mind, "Uncle Connor, should we leak a little about sister-in-law?"

Connor glanced at her and understood what she meant. "Why not?" He let her enjoy it and stood for a few clicks of the picture.

Shea was wearing a burgundy bodycon dress. It had pleat-designed angle short sleeves with a plunging notch neckline on a fitted bodice. The dress accented her naturally appealing silhouette traversing its length below the knee hemline.

With tasteful makeup, her hazel eyes were highlighted on her face. The teardrop earring was the only adornment she required to complete her alluring appearance.

Connor looked like an indulgent father of a daughter next to Shea in a royal green cashmere plaid suit. Unlike other males from the Rivas family, Connor was always a warm person by appearance but he never bothered about the media or public.

The reporters shoot their questions from north to the south without confirming if Shea was really the girlfriend of Aaron.

Connor prefers quietness so he had to force himself to keep composed when the noise was an annoyance to his ears.

Shea flashed a gorgeous smile before stepping in front and spoke a few words patiently, "Please save your question for Brother Aaron and sister-in-law." She nodded at the reporters and left with Connor before the reporters could throw more questions about her identity and her relationship with the Rivas family.

The reporters started busily discussing what sister-in-law meant. Is Aaron Rivas married? Or just engaged?

Connor finally felt relieved from the noise when he heard Shea speaking more to herself, "These reporters and their wide range of questions. They don't even know about Aarvi, and here they are family planning for them. Uff…"

Connor chuckled at her words when the manager of the hotel greeted him and Shea before reporting to Shea, "Miss. Morris, the clothes are arranged in the room as per your request." He passed a keycard to Shea as he continued, "Please let me know if anything needs to be taken care of."

Shea took the card and placed it inside her golden color wallet as she responded, "Thank you, I will contact you if anything." 

Karsen asked once they stepped inside the elevator, "Dresses? Are you planning any more surprises, Shea?"

Shea shook her head as she responded, "Aarvi asked me to have spare cloth for me and her, in case of requirement." Then she muttered in a dilemma, "She was saying like, we two could be targeted for some embarrassment." She didn't understand the reason but followed Aarvi.

Nonetheless, Connor understood Aarvi's intention. It was inevitable to face the envious ladies putting on some act. He could only hope none tries to be over-smart with Aarvi. She wasn't a woman to be trifled with if she loses her cool. He was also proud of how she will be prepared before the unnecessary troubles.

The guests' arrival started at half-past six. Affluent families to the aristocratic families were entering. The reporters were busy focusing on the wealthy people capturing their pictures looking at the expensive outfits and adornment while the scholars would merely smile and ignore the pictures.

The military families of Burton and Louis were also there with other smaller families who were related to the military medical field. They didn't throw an eye at the media, making their way inside the party.

When the white Lexus S5 halted in front of the hotel entrance, the crowd of reporters went silent. Nobody expected Leon to appear at the party, especially after whatever happened at the Mirage banquet. They had doubted the rumors about Leon attending the banquet, now, it confirmed to them. 

A new question appeared, 'What is the relation between Rivas and Harmon?' They wouldn't have been surprised if the host was Harmon.

A well-bred man wearing a raisin-colored Italian business slim suit alighted the car and buttoned the blazer elegantly. The cameramen were taking pictures when the reporters gasped as Leon got to the right side of the car.

Everyone's eyes were glued at the left side without being able to believe Eliza was accompanying Leon even after all these.
