The Traps of Black Swan

Looking at Aarvi's black orbs narrowing at her icily and repeating "Shall we?" 

Naomi rolled her eyes unwilling to follow her words and snorted haughtily, "You wish."

'Pak'

The impact of the tight slap didn't only make Aarvi shake her palm due to stinging pain, Naomi's head hung down aside with strong red fingers print on her cheek. Naomi was so shocked that she needed time to absorb what just happened.

The female doctors' hands flew to cover their mouths when their jaws dropped and the male doctors were surprised, clearly not expecting it from Aarvi.

Violence from Aarvi's side was clearly unexpected to them.

The chief of the cardiology department had ignored the ruckus due to both the ladies' special status with the Rivas family but he couldn't stop himself from going out and sternly discipline them.

"Doctor Fisher, Ms. Evans, this is a hospital, controlling your actions and bear in mind where you are standing."

Aarvi wasn't the type to take such action but it was needed for Naomi. She turned to the chief and slightly bowed her head in apology.

Aarvi wiped her right palm with a tissue as her mellow, respectful voice sounded, "Chief XXX, I never had any intention to educate your fellow junior doctor in front of everyone. If she refuses to step out, I have left with no choice but to take action before she turns the hospital into her playground."

Against his stern and imposing words, she was ever so calm and her voice didn't even raise a little or used her power to suppress him. So he naturally nodded before he could even realize and the respect for her stepped higher irrespective of their huge age difference.

Naomi was holding her left cheek and glared at Aarvi fiercely, "How dare you hit me?" She bellowed, "I can sue you." She gritted her teeth and pointed her chin to the corner of the wall.

Aarvi merely glanced at the security camera and looked back at her. She chuckled feeling pity for her. "Naomi Fisher, will you believe me if I say I can erase it at the flick of my fingers?"

"You…" Naomi felt her whole body burning in fire for controlling herself from lunging on Aarvi. She had expected her to get afraid. She wanted to claw her face and make her look hideous that she dare not step out of her house. 

Aarvi shrugged her shoulders, she had no intention to erase anything, "Naomi Fisher, isn't a slap too little for all your deeds?"

The doctors started murmuring pointing at Naomi thinking Aarvi, the beloved wife of Aaron Rivas got to know Naomi Fisher was showing off by using Aaron's name.

Naomi obviously knows what was running in other doctors' heads which fueled her anger and roared without thinking, "At least I didn't seduce Aaron like you to get his favor."

A hush fell over after her words.

Meanwhile, the chief quickly went to his room to call Aaron and inform the situation. He had expected Aaron to control the situation but the latter said a line, 'Aarvi is definitely showing mercy to her.'

The chief looked at his mobile in bewilderment after the call hung up. He understood Aaron had no intention to stop them instead, he was disappointed to know Aarvi wasn't ruthless.

His gaze went on the serene beauty and sighed deeply looking at Naomi seething in embarrassment. 'Doctor Rivas is an unparalleled doting husband.'

He wished Aarvi won't get hurt in the process else Doctor Rivas will flip the hospital around.

On the other end, Aarvi crossed her arms and looked at Naomi top to toe, "Tsk tsk, I had thought too highly of you, Naomi Fisher." Aarvi tilted her head and queried, "Did I seduce your boyfriend or your husband?" 

A doctor who had chopstick on her lips hummed before she remarked, "Exactly, Doctor Fisher, if Mrs. Rivas seduces her husband, what is wrong in that? Aren't you stooping too low to comment on it?"

'Husband!?' Aarvi really wanted to ask why they were making her wife of Aaron. 'When did I marry him? Why don't I know?' She thought and saw Naomi giving a death glare to the doctor who spoke.

Naomi pointed to Aarvi and sneered, "Aaron isn't her husband."

Aarvi shrugged and accepted the truth, "You are right."

The doctors: "..."

They had clearly heard Karsen addressing Aarvi as his daughter-in-law, wife of Aaron, doesn't that mean they are married? They were puzzled at the revelation.

Anyhow the smug smile of Noami couldn't stay long. It disappeared when Aarvi asked, "Naomi Fisher, did you consider my suggestion?... Have you ever confessed to Aaron that you love him?"

The doctors were all ears and eyes to witness the more drama thanking Aarvi in their mind for choosing the lunch break time.

Naomi could only glare at Aarvi because she never confessed to Aaron and now it was too late.

Aarvi got down to the point, leaning on the desk, she asked Naomi as though she was thankful for her, "Do you know you are the prime reason I and Aaron are together and closer?"

Naomi frowned uneasily with bad premonition looking at Aarvi's eyes filled with confidence and… slyness. She gulped unknowingly alternating her gaze between her serene face and her dangerous eyes. Both were opposite and she couldn't guess what Aarvi was up to. 

She coughed awkwardly and tried to walk out showing disinterest, "I don't have time to waste in your nonsense." She didn't realize she was stuttering to complete the line.

She heard Aarvi chuckle and the door closed from the outside locking them inside. Her body quivered due to the sharp and also many mocking gazes on her back.

Just then, Doctor Green, Aaron's one of closest colleagues who knows Aarvi and vice versa curiously probed. "Ms. Evans, if you don't mind, we are very curious to know how your and Doctor Rivas's love story started."

Aarvi glanced at him and noticed others nodding. Seeing Aaron unemotional all the time, she could guess it was still unbelievable for them to digest Aaron has a girlfriend.

Anyhow, she didn't want to talk about her personal life so she kept it in a different way to open Naomi's mind. "Instead I will narrate the achievements of Doctor Fisher, I hope it will entertain you."  Her sarcastic tone obviously didn't mean what she said.

The doctors looked at each other and the chief who was holding the file, sneakily reached out to hear her. He actually wanted to know how she tamed the business fame Dragon so easily.

Aarvi started her narration, "Stage one: Shawn's birthday party. The party was grand and you guys were there enjoying the party. Aaron and I were still a doctor and patient but a wicked witch soon started a rumor." 

Naomi was flustered and turned behind. She was the one who started it and she understood Aarvi was going to tell them everything she had done to keep Aarvi away from Aaron.

A female doctor asked in a low voice, afraid of offending Aarvi, "Was that… you are a plaything of Doctor Rivas before he marries Doctor Fisher?"

Another doctor stated after her, "No, it was Ms. Evans is the third woman between Doctor Fisher and Doctor Rivas so their marriage is delaying."

Naomi paled hearing them.

Aarvi looked at Naomi with an amused smile, she excitedly said, "Doctor Fisher, your colleagues know your achievements. Congratulations!!"

Naomi turned green and red hearing Aarvi while the doctors burst into laughter due to Aarvi's excitement filled with sarcasm.
