Rushing inside the theatre, Aaron noticed the pictures playing on the screen and imdiately understood the situation. He hadn't shown his picture purposefully so that she shouldn't stress out. As he had guessed, his pictures triggered her mory and the effect was still unknown.
His hands froze when he heard her utter 'Ronron.' His mind quickly recalled what she was mumbling in sleep, 'Ronron run?' Nonetheless, he didn't have ti to think about which part of the past ca as her dream.
Unlike how Shawn and gan were dreaded, Aaron and Connor were bone cold observing Aarvi. Panicking doesn't help, so they know they have to be composed irrespective of the situation. Shea was waiting for them to say sothing so that she could arrange it for them.
Aaron checked Aarvi's pulse rate. She needed a quick injection to lower her palpitation but the dicines weren't there. Aaron had arranged everything for an ergency in the Avron mansion. In the Rivas mansion, it was the first ti they were planning to stay so they have to move Aarvi to the hospital. He had to make do with the tablets.
He glanced at Connor. The latter gave a quick nod and ran out to Aaron's room to fetch Aaron's laptop bag. Everyone knew Aaron always carried ergency tablets that might be required for Aarvi.
Aaron checked the shrunk pupils of Aarvi and carried her out. Compared to the last two tis, this concussion was serious so he instructed Shea who was running behind him.
"Call Doctor Wells to the hospital, right away."
"I will do it," Shea responded and went aside to call her chief.
Aaron fed the dicine to Aarvi and made sure the tablet didn't stick in her throat. Jordan, who had an oxygen bag in his room, brought it inside.
Aaron and Jordan's eyes t. One was icy cold and accusing, and another one was guilty. Jordan's fist tightened on the cane, the dreaded day finally ca. He doubted once they leave the Rivas mansion to the hospital, whether they will return together or separate ways.
Connor squeezed Aaron's shoulder to focus on the pressing matter. Clenching his teeth, Aaron carefully placed the oxygen tube for Aarvi and her breathing started to slowly stabilize.
The butler announced on behalf of Karsen who was making calls for free roads for dical purposes, "Master, the cars are ready."
Shawn volunteered to carry the oxygen cylinder and Aaron carried Aarvi to the elevator to avoid any motion to her head that might cause her splitting throb in the head.
Shawn drove the Maybach, with Aaron and Aarvi on the backseat and Connor on the shotgun. Karsen knew gan and Jordan wouldn't be able to wait for the call, so in another car, he took them to the hospital with Shea.
Everyone leaving the Rivas mansion would definitely reach the ears of Leon Harmon. Aaron didn't want to take the chance of Leon attacking them. So he doubled the security, alerted the Shadow team, and kept eye on Leon's movents.

After an hour,
Doctor Wells had followed Aarvi's case from the beginning. She heard the cause as she studied Aarvi's scanning reports before informing Aaron, "She hasn't fallen into a coma but the neuron activity is rather high. Her mories are definitely being affected but we can't be certain about the activities."
She ant Aarvi might lose or gain mories or might forget everything and everyone. The doctor wanted to scold them for showing the picture of the past but knew it was unexpected. It was already a miracle Aarvi had pushed through three years.
"Chances are fifty-fifty but…" Even though he was a doctor, he hated to hear the but for Aarvi's case. The doctor took a breath, she couldn't lie, "Most of these types of cases, patients usually lose their mory. Be prepared for it."
Aaron felt his eyes stung, hard to breathe like soone was squeezing his heart dry, he stood like a statue cold as ice. Aarvi was so happy, smiling at him. He couldn't believe her happiness was always short-lived. There was always sothing to haunt her, make her suffer.
He clenched his teeth, his knuckles turned pale as sheet digging his nails to his palm without reacting to Doctor Well's words. Aarvi might forget him, forget everyone, or rember everything, and nothing was in his control. Initially, her mories were masked behind hence they had to be on high alert and there was a chance of recovery of mories
If she forgets now, there will be no chance of recovery. There was still a good thing about forgetting, she won't be haunted with nightmares. There were a lot of bad effects from forgetting, and the worst one was she will have to live in confusion.
What they had in the future was a mystery, totally unknown, and unpredictable. He wanted to hope for good, the fear of negative was undeniable.
Shea shook Aaron's hand when she noticed Aaron wasn't listening to Doctor Wells. The latter had ntioned the worst possible scenario that they have to be prepared for dentia. Not just deterioration in mory, Aarvi might also face problems or be different in her thinking and behavior.
Doctor Wells didn't repeat as Aaron was studying every possible health issue Aarvi might face. She patted his arm, "You should be with her." She had seen him for three years and knows nothing makes him feel alive than the woman sleeping on an ICU bed.
Aaron, who reached the door, turned around. Doctor Wells assured him, "I will be in the on-call room and inform the staff to keep an operation theatre reserved."
Aaron nodded before rushing inside the ICU ignoring others.
Shea heard the rest of the instructions from her chief. Doctor Wells described the situation and cause so that Shea can learn instead of blindly following, "If the patient's mory wipes out, she might not face other problems. If she rembers any tragic events that have caused her mory mask, alert imdiately once the panic starts. The chances of heart failure depend on her past and her response. Doctor Rivas will take care of cardio risks but make sure to notify the cardiology departnt."
Shea, who was noting the points, lifted her head, "Heart failure?"
Doctor Wells paused before stating the truth, "Aarvi Evans had heart transplantation."
Shea was frozen when the doctor left. She realized Aaron didn't tell her everything about his Cupcake. Now she realized why everyone was frightened when she had thought Aarvi's life wasn't in danger.
Shea ran out and saw Doctor Wells, just telling the family to have hope as nothing was certain. Probably everyone knew what would happen so they didn't ask anything to the doctor either.
She wanted to ask what exactly was going on in Aarvi's life but didn't want to hurt them and she is still an outsider who had no right to know the truth.
She thought to ask Aaron to rest and she will watch over Aarvi so that he could be attentive if the ergency strikes. Anyhow, she knew Aaron wouldn't leave Aarvi's side. She had thought Aaron and Aarvi were finally together after crossing the hardship but there was one major.
The family who was joyous an hour back talking about engagent and birthday were dreaded. All she could do was take care of them. Shea fetched water for all, a few drank, and others didn't touch.
Shawn finally broke the eerie silence, "Grandfather, what happened in the past?" His pleading voice was laced with despair.
Not just him, gan and Karsen also wanted to know. They wanted to what Jordan did that, he was guilty but not regretful. And the very reason caused his wife to stay separately from him.
