Cycling for ten minutes, Aaron and Aarvi reached a junction that had a street market. Hence they had to walk pushing the cycle.


    Aaron held the bicycle in her right hand as his left hand was wrapped protectively around Aarvi who was curiously watching everything. They walked for quite a distance until it got crowded around them.


    Leon''s men who were following them felt hard to keep track of them in the crowd. Once they crossed the crowded area, they breathed a sigh of relief following the tall man who was pushing the bicycle with his arm around the slender woman.


    ....


    Aaron pulled Aarvi to his right to avoid any vehicle brushing past her as he leisurely walked like a crown prince going out on a stroll to check on his citizens.


    Aarvi helped him put on his sunsses and wore her Bluetooth to listen to the caller. She heard Mark of the Shadow team report to her. [Ms. Evans, nobody is following you. Leon''s men are behind your duplicates. We are doubting Leon''s men are near the marriage bureau. Should we take them down?]


    Meanwhile, Aarvi was making faces at Aaron asking for ice cream when she saw the shop. "No violence today." She told Max then the call hung up after he responded.


    Currently, Aarvi and Aaron were strolling around theke of old Mocon. It wasn''t just well maintained, it was an area in which the government was spending money to maintain the old style and architecture of the city.


    The fences at theke had flower pots every few meters. The summer''s variety of flowers were bloomed, setting a cool and romantic vibe.


    Instead of taking a taxi to the marriage bureau, they were taking a shortcut around theke to reach the next area.


    Leon''s n led them to enjoy the bicycle ride and walk hand in hand at the shore of theke. When Leon was excited about his date with Aarvi, they were having a summer afternoon date, except the sun being slightly harsh on them.


    Looking at her making a puppy face when she was actually the owner of a few shops, cafes, and restaurants on that street, Aaron didn''t have any words for her.


    He bought an ice cream and umbre for her. Both enjoyed their walk of fifteen minutes before the two stood in front of the marriage bureau.


    The Rivas family and Shea had already reached and were waiting for them. They were amused looking at two who weren''t irritated due to Leon but having a fun-loving conversation.


    Aarvi saw Dax and Zain were there too. She had told Zain and he was at work. Dax didn''t want to disturb them but after knowing everyone was going, he took an extra-long break at lunchtime.


    Leon''s men hardly knew the faces of the two. The ones who knew their face were behind a random taxi. Looking at the happy faces of the family, they were only able to take pictures of their backside without their faces as the umbre was covering them.


    One of Leon''s men sent the picture to Leon and dialed Leon''s number. He reported immediately, [Boss, something is missing. A man and woman came strolling to the bureau. From the looks of family and friends, I think president Rivas and that girl are here.] There was uncertainty in his voice.


    Leon didn''t get angry because he already knew it.


    Ten minutes before,


    When Leon got a picture of Ava Kelly getting on the taxi and a man getting on another taxi that went in a different direction. He doubted them. The legs of the girl in the picture weren''t as slender as Aarvi''s.


    However, how could he believe Aarvi would leave alone and Aaron wouldn''t make a fuss. That was impossible especially after he knew they were in love with each other.


    Even though he was ready to leave the mansion, he stayed in there watching the developments to know how Aarvi was going to make him regret.


    He ended the call and dialed Aarvi''s number. He wasn''t just ready with one n. Really? Does he look so weak?


    ....


    At the bureau, Aaron resignedly shook his head when she skipped to Zain. As usual, he bent to her height to tease. Pinching her cheek, "My little Pumpkin is grown up."


    He had been expecting it for a long time. After her call to tell him that she recalled the past and nning to propose to Aaron, he had guessed the marriage. He took a half-day off to drop his visit as her only family.


    Even though he had heard about the Rivas family from Aarvi, he was surprised they treated him like a new family member instead of putting him on airs even when he said he was jobless and living off Hayden Kelly.


    Shawn too didn''t know what Zain does but Shawn knew he wasn''t jobless as his attentiveness and information gathering was faster and more specific. Whereas Shea and Jordan pointed out immediately, anyway they didn''t make him ufortable by saying it.


    Aarvi extended her hand, "Where is my gift, Apple Pie?"


    Zain kept his pen and coolly said, "You can sign with this and get your certificate."


    Aarvi: "..."


    Zain chuckled before hugging her and nodded at Aaron to greet him.


    She went in front of Dax whoined, "Dum Dum, you are trending with me over the inte as my secret lover, and here, you are marrying your love. That''s not fair."


    Aarvi giggled. She had read two articles which Dax had sent her saying, [Sugar Mommy, you became my secret lover.]


    Hooking her arm with him, she pointed at Aaron, "I will make it fair, Call him Sugar Daddy." She rhythmically tuned thest two words.


    Dax and Aaron: "..."


    The rest burst intoughter. Milo Wen at the side wanted tough but controlled due to Aaron. He didn''t want to appear on headlines as ''Fired forughing at his boss.''


    "Ms. Evans, President Rivas, everyone is waiting for you." Milo Wen changed the topic.


    She was about to go inside, her mobile rang. She hoped Leon wasn''t going to threaten her with a bomb because she might actually burn his a*s with one.


    Just then, Dax''s phone rang too. It was a call from his secretary and he was sure Leon must have attacked thepany.


    Dax stretched his neck, "Let me show him, his little attack on us won''t stop us." He took her mobile, "Go, go, get your certificate, Dum Dum."


    Milo Wen changed the screen on his tab and saw thetest news against Skr. It was pretty major and a loss of a few million. He again shifted the screen and noticed the stock price of Skr that was on the rise, started to fluctuate.


    He was sure, many retail investors would sell the stocks due to the news and the stock price might fall to pretty low. However, Skr''s main backbone andrgest shareholder was Aarvi so it can''t fall dangerously low and the institutional investors won''t be leaving thepany as they knew well Skr wasn''t defeatable so easily.


    So Leon''s attack felt futile ording to Milo Wen as he nned to buy some shares for himself when the price drops.


    Who doesn''t like passive ie?


    Dax answered both the calls together, he wore Aarvi''s AirPods as he kept his mobile to his left ear.


    A proud president of thepany punched his fist before going inside. She had full faith in him.
