Chapter 697 - The Priority



In a vast, warm-toned bedroom, only a bedside lamp was flickering. Elder Harmon was reading a book leaning on the headboard of the bed. It became a ritual for him from the time Leon started to keep him under house arrest.

He liked his life in Rivas mansion. Everyone would do their work and meet in the evening. They chat, laugh, and have dinner. There was no flaw in their hospitality. Jordan always found one or the other thing to keep him busy all day. It wasn\'t a waste of time. They would go stroll in the estate, do some fieldwork with others. There was a fulfillment for doing something useful when going to bed.

How much ever his new life felt good, he knew he was a guest and he had his family. So at the end of the day, he couldn\'t help worrying about his family. His family is affected by his own grandson. Yet, he was in no state to protect others or handle Leon. Hence he still needed a book to distract him. 

As per Aarvi\'s words, he could go to his family next week. He had no idea what she was going to do. He thought about the problem Harmon Industries was ensnared in. Shawn had assured him Aarvi would bring Harmon Industries back to its form and it was just temporary. However, He couldn\'t stop himself from worrying about it. 

When he has to choose between the family and company, he will undoubtedly select family so he was able to convince himself to stay calm without questioning Aarvi. Or else he would have bombarded her with a sea of questions. Probably he would have scolded her too.

Today he had to read a lot more than regular before the sleepiness crept to his body and eyes. He yawned, keeping the book away. His hand reached to turn off the night lamp, but the mobile next to it rang, piercing the soothing silence of the night. 

His aged eyes caught the string of numbers on the screen. A sudden flash of bright light at the window caught his attention before his hands could reach his mobile. \'It\'s going to rain.\' He thought when the thunder followed. 

He fetched the mobile and answered it. He kept his mobile at the ear and heard Dylan\'s low voice as though carefully whispering to his ear, "Grandfather, Dylan here. This is very important. Could you please convey to President Rivas that Leon got a call from an international number? They seemed to have some plan against President Evans. They have been tracking President Evans for a few days."

Elder Harmon\'s back stiffened as soon as he heard the news. He didn\'t know how critical the information was. He wasn\'t sure if it was a trap or real. He thought it\'s better to be careful instead of regretting later. So as soon as Dylan completed his side, he responded immediately, "I will let him know." He didn\'t say Aaron and Aarvi were in the Rivas mansion in case it was a trap to get their location.

A whisper came again, "Alright." He responded before the call ended.

Elder Harmon hurriedly got off the bed and wore his home slippers. He ignored the shawl and cane. He steadily yet swiftly walked out of his bedroom. 

Standing in the walkway, he looked left and right. He recalled when Megan had given him a home tour. Aaron\'s room was on the other side of the mansion. He held the walls for support and made his way in haste, thinking if the couple returned home or were still outside.

On the way, he saw the back of a slender lady. Before he could assume her as Aarvi, he identified the honey, blonde hair of Shea, and the latter turned around.

Shea caught the old man holding the wall and was alarmed. She ran towards the old man, "Grandfather Harmon…" She quickly reached him and held his other hand. Her eyes worriedly looked up at him if he was feeling unwell as she questioned, "Grandfather Harmon, are you feeling unwell?"

Elder Harmon halted to catch a breath and asked his question, "Did Aaron and Aarvi return home? I need to speak with him."

Shea paused her wildly running thoughts. She analyzed that Elder Harmon was in a hurry to speak with Aaron. She supported him as she responded, in a low and clear voice, "Grandfather Harmon, Brother Aaron, and Aarvi returned sometime before. How about you take a seat here?" She pointed to the second living hall, "I will bring Brother Aaron to you."

Elder Harmon knew the room wasn\'t so close. So he agreed to her, "Alright, thank you, Shea." He flashed a faint smile in gratitude and went to take a seat.

Shea hurried to Aaron\'s room and knocked on the door, "Brother Aaron…" Her voice wasn\'t too high, neither too low. She would have suggested Elder Harmon for speaking tomorrow if he wasn\'t in a hurry.

Inside the room, Aarvi gasped, breaking their searing kiss. She quickly held her dress from dropping to the floor. Aaron groaned in displeasure, he wanted to ignore it but his wife was already peeking at the door.

Aarvi fetched the shirt she had tossed and urged Aaron to wear it. In mind, she was praying Shawn and Shea didn\'t start fighting. On second thought, she was afraid of any health emergencies. "Ronron, please…"

Aaron breathed out and wore the shirt. \'It\'s better be important, Shea.\' He thought and watched his Cupcake run to the bathroom to either change or wear it back properly.

He opened the door and saw Shea confused. The latter quickly spoke looking at his icy cold eyes, "I am sorry for disturbing you, Brother Aaron. Elder Harmon wants to talk to you. He was anxious and dashing here holding the wall." 

Aaron brows knitted hearing Shea. Elder Harmon was a man who could face death with a smile on his face. Fazing him could be only by hurting Aeon or something very serious. He understood there might be something important. 

He was about to say something to shea, the bathroom door unlocked. He didn\'t want Aarvi to lose her sleep so quickly shooed Shea, "I will be there in a minute."

Shea nodded and left when she noticed Aaron signaling her to leave.

Aarvi hadn\'t changed, she wore the white dress back in case they needed to go somewhere. "Ronron…"

Composing himself, he looked at her dainty face. His hand reached for her face and his thumb, gently massaged her temples, "Stop frowning, Cupcake." His wife worries too quickly. He could understand that. She was afraid of her revenge affecting others.

He continued seeing her frown even deeper, "Chairman Harmon asked for me. I will go and see."

Holding his hand, Aarvi slowly nodded as she tried to go towards the door, "I will come with you."

Tugging her back, he coaxed her to stay back as he didn\'t know what was the matter, "Be good. Change and go to bed. I will be back soon."

She pouted but agreed by wobbling her head.. He kissed the forehead of the sullen face before exiting the bedroom.
