Livid Guardian's Endless Coddling

Chapter 550: Survivor



Chapter 550: Survivor

Stretching his neck Arsh alighted the car after parking at the bus stop in front of a resort. Arna and Naira were excited to spend the day whereas Noor got off the car looking at the mountainous view from their place.

Leaning on the car, Arsh noticed two girls already started taking pictures while another one admired the view. Ivan stood next to him, his elbow on the sports car tracing Arsh's line of sight.

"I was right, after all," Ivan remarked and as usual got the silent response of Arsh which Ivan understood.

Arsh merely glanced at him before calling the girls, "Noor, Snow... Naira."

Snow abandoned her friend's selfie and stood between two men hooking her arm each. "Naira, Noor, Bro has a task for you two. Are you up for it?"

Noor glanced at Arsh while Ivan shrugged her hand off making Arna pout. Naira looked anywhere but Arsh. She didn't know if she would get Arsh but she wasn't going to let Noor have him either.

Arsh didn't waste time and looked at Ivan. The latter took the cue and went to the two girls while Arsh explained the game. The small backpack of Noor and the fancy clutch of Naira were taken away with their mobile phones.

Arsh saw Naira's brows trembling while Noor just looked confused, "The task is simple. It's 10 AM, I am giving you only 100 bucks. Go anywhere in the town, choose whatever you want to do but you aren't allowed to borrow money from anybody. Whoever returns with money will be considered as a survivor."

Noor understood the meaning behind the survivor whereas Naira and Arna assumed it means winner. Meanwhile, Ivan was intrigued by the spy camera which had live video and audio support which they weren't going to tell the girls.

Arsh continued, "It's your wish if you are going to use your identity or not and the way you earn."

Noor nodded as she thought about what she could do to earn money even if it's just 10 bucks. Whereas Arna and Naira thought Noor was going to lose because Naira was a celebrity and she can even sell her autograph and earn.

Arsh would have pitied them if he had heard their thoughts. He pulled a wallet out of Ivan's pockets leaving the latter speechless. Arsh gave his reason, "Come on, I am jobless."

'Oh yeah, please.' Ivan rolled his eyes as he thought while Arna giggled.

Arna and Arsh had company shares at both the companies including other companies which Aria and Alan often bought in their names so even if they waste time doing nothing, they had enough to enjoy their life. It was secondary that they don't use that money.

Arsh pulled two bills of 100 and handed them to the sisters, "How you use this 100 bucks will also depend on you. Use it for transport or lunch, we don't care. If your stupidity causes your life at risk, you will be disqualified, and don't worry, I will make sure you are safe without a single bruise. No need to worry about the safety."

Ivan nodded hearing it. Morgan security men were in the town in disguise and the town was safe for girls so there was nothing to bother.

Hearing the game, Ivan's eyes landed on Arna, "Excuse us." He held her wrist and pulled her to the other side of the car. Arna happily skipped behind him before he trapped her against the car with his hands pressed on the car.

Arna mischievously looked at him eagerly waiting for him to say what she wants to hear for so many years. Ivan asked, "Do you like to date me?" His deep voice held the mysteriousness.

Without a single thought, Arna nodded with a pleased short hum "Hmm."

Ivan smirked as his hand pushed in her long jacket pocket and took her phone away as his hand took the bag off her shoulder. He leaned closer to her and whispered next to her ear, "Then join the game. I will think about dating."

Arna wasn't the type to shy away by the closeness so his words excited her than the two girls behind her. "Really? You SHOULD think." 

Leaning aside, Ivan hummed in agreement hiding his amusement for her enthusiasm.

'Think?' For him, there was nothing to think about. He was just waiting for her to reconcile with her parents. He wants her to settle back in the city because of her parents instead of being with him.

She too took his wallet and pulled a currency note which was 100 bucks. She quickly glanced behind to see his brother busy with two girls before pressing her soft lips on Ivan's smooth cheek without making a single sound and ran away to the bus stop.

Ivan: "..." It became hard for him to put on an indifferent face easily.

"See you at 4." She waved to them and without turning back while saying loudly.

Naira wanted to go to Arna and talk but Snow stood in front of a passing-by jeep which was driven by an old man from the farm to the town. She folded her hands and was saying something making a pitiful pleading face before the old man took her in.

If Ivan didn't know Arna was trained in self-defense and taekwondo, he would have run behind her to stop. He calmed down from his sudden panic and caught the eye of Arsh. He shrugged as he left Arna's belongings in the car.

Meanwhile, after teaching the two girls to put on the spy camera lying as GPS, Arsh told them it gives their live location so they shouldn't take it off. 

Noor asked at last, "Why are we doing this? Will you and Brother Ivan also join us?"

Ivan purposefully made an innocent face and blinked at his friend to hear his response. Naira understood Noor has no idea about anything or 'Is she playing dumb?' Naira thought.

Instead of answering, Arsh asked, "Do you want me to join the game?"

Noor thought before shaking her head, "Nope, I just asked." Noor was clearly aware Arsh was too smart and had many skills. The six hours is a lot of time for him to earn pretty much more than what she could do.

Arsh nodded. "You are going to earn the response to your question. Enjoy your day." He plainly added.

Ivan and Naira looked at each other without understanding how she would get the answer. However, they saw Noor again give a thought before saying in her soft voice, "Bye."

Noor went towards the bus stop thinking about the game. Naira who walked beside her saw a taxi passing, she rushed to the road thinking Noor will take it.

Noor can't act weak and play around to get a lift like Arna so if one taxi missed, Noor will have to stay there for long as buses weren't frequent on that route.

"Sister Naira, we..." Noor couldn't get to say they can share the taxi that will divide their expense too but Naira hid her wicked grin and said, "Bye..."

Ivan and Arsh's face turned dark at Naira's behavior with her own sister.
