151: My motto

My motto

Helios went to his room and changed his clothes then wore his silk pajamas and went to bed . While looking at the ceiling with gold decorations , he remembered his conversation with Aria in the car .0

' Now that I think about it...it's the first time that we have talked in human language , without arguing with each other...It isn't bad to take a break once in a while . ' thought Helios with a smirk and went to sleep .

The morning came very fast and nobody could rest properly last night . Although they decided to go have fun yesterday , Helios didn't expect to receive a message from the project manager saying that an urgent meeting needed to be done tomorrow . Helios notified all of them that they had to be in the company at nine o'clock .

" That donkey !!! He takes us all in a night club then orders us to go to the company immediately so early in the morning . I don't know about the others but I had to reorganize a huge pile of files and need extra rest . " said Aria with an angry tone while washing her teeth .

Aden was already dressed and ready to go to the medical clinic of doctor Endre . After washing up , Aria rushed inside her room to get dressed . She looked at the time and it was eight am .

" Goshhhhh !!!! I am late again ! " said Aria and dressed up as fast as she could .

" Dada ?! " asked Aden when seeing her behave in a weird way .

" Aden my dear , you will not believe it but that uncle that took care of you yesterday , is a true demon when it comes to make others overwork ! Don't be fooled by his gentleness ! " said Aria with a serious look on her face . 

' Yesterday he said that I owe him since he took care of my brother....I think I'll be able to survive if I don't have to cook or clean ! I survived all those files , this will be a piece of cake . ' thought Aria , encouraging herself .

Aden still couldn't understand his sister and decided to go take his bag then wait for her at the door . 

Aria wore her white trainers and took Aden's hand then with a speed like the superhero Flash , she was able to make it to doctor Endre's clinic and left Aden with the nurses . 

" See ya tonight sweetie ! " said Aria with a smile and started to run towards the company . 

' Ah.....ah.....ah....I should have taken a taxi but...I am in short....of money...I need to....be careful with my budget from now on ! ' thought Aria while running towards the company .

On her way , Aria smelled a delicious aroma . She looked around and saw a bakery shop . 

' He may be mean but he has bought me a phone and a bouquet of my favorite blue roses , it's only natural for me to pay back his kindness . ' thought Aria with a smile then went in and brought two slices of chocolate fondue cake then went to the company . 

" Finally....made it ! " said Aria who rushed towards the elevator . 

She looked at the time and realized that she was fifteen minutes earlier . 

When the elevator arrived on the top floor , Aria went to her office and watered the blue roses so that they wouldn't wither while she dealt with her work .

" Alan , when is the meeting ?! " said Helios while touching his forehead in a tired manner . 

" At 12 am ! " said Alan with a serious expression . 

" Bring me a strong coffee and every possible material you can find about this case . " said Helios with a serious tone . 

" Yes ! " said Alan with a serious tone .

' Just when things were pacified....now we have to solve this problem quickly ! ' thought Alan and went to get the files Heliso asked for . 

After Alan left , Helios got up from his chair and sighed in a troubled way . 

" What am I gonna do now ?! " said Helios with a worried tone .

' I never thought that cruel witch would have connections with the American ambassadors and their companies . Now that I think about it , I should have let her come back to Denmark for Klara's birthday....the situation would have been very different if I had done that ! ' thought Helios then his sight caught a glimpse of Aria who was watering the flowers he had brought her . 

' That little tigress has arrived.... ' thought Helios and took his eyes off her then got up and went to sit on his desk .

After five minutes the door suddenly knocked .

" Enter ! " said Helios with a tired tone . 

He thought that it was Alan but to his surprise , it was Aria . She was holding a plastic bag and two forks . 

" Good morning president ! " said Aria with a polite tone .

" Good morning ! " said Helios with a tired tone . 

Aria noticed right away that he wasn't himself cause he didn't call her little tigress or mocked her . 

" President , you look as if something's bothering you . " said Aria with a polite tone .

" I am alright ! " said Helios .

" Sorry for being impolite but if you were alright then you would have started to pick a fight with me or mock me . " said Aria with a serious tone . 

What she said made Helios show a little smile .

" Do you wish to be mocked by me so badly ?! Are you a masochist ?! " said Helios and looked at her annoyed expression .

" You're the masochist, not I ! Don't think I will be polite and bear with you just because you are the boss here ! " said Aria with a serious tone .

" Today....I really am not in the mood to fight with you . If you wanna resign , I will tell the human resources to deal with it right away . " said Helios .

" Really ?! Are you serious ?! " said Aria with a happy tone which annoyed Helios .

" Of course I was joking ! You have yet to make up for your rude behavior ! " said Helios with an annoyed tone . 

" I knew that good things are very hard to get but I still held a little hope.....Anyway , you're clearly bothered by something president . How about you tell me what's the problem and maybe we can solve it together . If you frown like that , you will get nothing , expect from wrinkles . I hate to admit it but your handsome face is probably an international treasure so I suggest you don't ruin it , for the sake of the eye's pleasure . " said Aria with a smile trying to cheer Helios up a bit .

" Hahahaha ! I have never heard a compliment like this before ! " said Helios while laughing . 

" President , on my way here I smelled a delicious aroma from a bakey , two blocks away from the company and brought two pieces of chocolate fondue cake . One for you ! " said Aria and handed on of the pieces of chocolate fondue cake towards Helios . 

" For me ?! " asked Helios with doubt . 

" Yes ! You know that I am a true disaster when it comes to cook so I bought this . I wanted to thank you once again for taking care of my brother . Even in his sleep yesterday, he would still smile . Also about the roses and the phone , thank you a lot . I really appreciate it ! " said Aria with a smile .

" You're being nice to me...That's very....creepy ! Are you trying to trick me with this cake ?! What's your true purpose ?! " said Helios who couldn't believe that she actually brought a cake for him . In her CV it was written that she loved cakes and Helios noticed that when she stayed at the royal palace . 

" I expected that kind of answer ! I am not trying to trick you ! This is just an ' a small part of the payment ' I have to make you . " said Aria with a serious tone . 

" A small part of the payment ?! " asked Helios with a confused .

" Yeah ! You bought me those things but I will pay you back for the phone and the roses . " said Aria with a smile .

" Not necessary ! I gave them to you because it would be hard to reach you if you're not in the company . " said Helios with a serious tone . 

" Then I will have to bring them back to you mr president ! My motto is ' Never owe anyone anything ' and I have always followed this motto . Even now , if you don't accept the money , then I will return them . " said Aria with a serious tone . 

" Why ?! " asked Helios puzzled about what she meant . 

" I would never take something that's not mine or bought by me , if it's not from my family or very close friends . You just meed to cut off the price from my salary . " said Aria with a serious smile .

' Little tigress , you're indeed weird and unique at the same time . You're a girl yet you strive so hard to achieve what you desire on your own.....That's indeed a very charming quality of yours ! ' thought Helios and gave up in convincing her that those were gifts and that she didn't need to pay for then nodded his head in sign of agreement .

" Good ! Now , President ! Shall we discuss what's bothering you while eating a delicious piece of fondue cake ?! " said Aria with an encouraging smile .
