263: Don’t try to bring us together

Don’t try to bring us together

" Before you say anything , I must tell you one thing first . I asked Aria to go to you because I thought that you would like her company more than ours . Also , I truly think you are quite good for each other . " said Mana explaining herself as fast as she could when they entered his office . 2

" Mana…. " said Helios with a calm smile .

" Huh ? What ? " said Mana confused .

" Thank you for calling her to come over to my house . I honestly feel better after chatting and passing time with her . " said Helios with a smile .

" For real ?...Wait ! Did you two…..sleep together ? " said Mana with an excited expression .

Helios laughed a little then flicked her forehead .

" Ouc ! What was that for ? " said Mana .

" Do you like Aria ? " asked Helios .

" Yes ! She is funny , naive , pure , kind and cute . Totally unlike any other girl I know . " said Mana .

' …I hate to admit it but we share the same thoughts . ' thought Helios with a smile .

" ...If you really like Aria then you shouldn't try to place her next to me anymore . You shouldn't try to create situations in which I may seriously end up losing my self control . " said Helios leaning on the couch .

Mana looked at Helios confused as she couldn't understand what was going on .

" Helios , I really don't understand you . You clearly like her . I am doing my best to try and get you two together . " said Mana .

" Thank you but your concern is not needed . Place that concern of yours on yourself . " said Helios .

" Hey ! Don't try to turn away the subject . I am asking you seriously here . Did you two sleep together or not ? " asked Mana .

She was very curious to know and didn't pay too much attention to anything unless she got the answer . Helios sighed then looked at her .

" …..we didn't do anything . We just played some basketball , watched a movie and chatted a little then we fell asleep on the cinema hall at my villa . " said Helios .

Mana opened her eyes wide in shock with her appearance clearly frozen .

" You ?! A playboy ?! All alone with a cute girl and didn't do anything to her ?...…This gotta be a hallucination . Pinch me ! " said Mana handing her hand to Helios .

" I am trying to have a serious talk here . Can you be more focused ? " said Helios .

" Eh….he he…he....Sorry ! It's just that . This is so unlike you . The normal you would have slept with her to relieve your anger . " said Mana confused with a bit if a surprised expression .

" Mana , how many of the girls I have slept with in the past do you see near me ? " said Helios with a serious tone .

" Eeee....None…..None of those girls are anywhere near us or the company . " said Mana .

" Exactly ! None of them is by my side...….As for that little crazy tigress , she is….special . I don't want her to join that group of girls and lose sight of her . To me , women were like clothes that I could change whenever I wanted but this girl...…she is someone that I don't think it's worth losing because of a simple interest I might have at the moment for her . She has shown herself worthy enough of respect from our part . " said Helios with a serious tone .

Mana felt speechless for a second . She had never heard Helios say such words before . It was her first time hearing him be so considerate of a woman .

" Wow….. " said Mana with a warm smile .

" What ? " asked Helios smiling .

" I….am shocked . You actually have fallen for someone . " said Mana shocked in a happy way .

" Fallen for someone ? " said Helios confused .

" Yeah ! Aria for example . " said Mana with a devilish grin .

" That crazy tigress ?...No , there's no way I have fallen for her . " said Helios with a laugh .

" Oh , yes there is ! Helios...you don't think of her with the thoughts of a person you like . Your thoughts , your inner care , your deep hesitation when she leaves herself completely open in front of you…..these are the thoughts that show you actually love that person . " said Mana with a sincere tone .

She took his hands and held them tightly .

" My dear Helios , you have fallen in love with Aria . " said Mana with a sincere tone and smile .

" Me , in love with her ?...Mana , I think you must have worked too much lately and your brain is confused . There's no way I am in love with her . It's impossible ! I don't fall in love with any girl . I only play with them . " said Helios , laughing at Mana's words .

" Really...…You have a high IQ mister . How can you built a company from scratch but not realise your own feelings . Geniuses , sure are weirdos . " said Mana .

" Hey ! " said Helios .

" Don't ' hey ' me ! I am telling you for your own good . She is a hard girl to come by . Apart from that she is also smart . Not like all the girls you have dated . " said Mana .

" I am in no situation to love anyone at the moment . Okay ? " said Helios a bit annoyed .

" I know the situation very well but I also know that Aria isn't a simple girl that gives up on difficulties , especially for the people she loves . If you two were to get together , she wouldn't just be your girlfriend but also your ally . Someone like you needs someone who can love them and support them at the same time .

" ….Fine ! If you continue to insist on your nonsense then I will fire her . " said Helios .

" What ? " said Mana shocked .

" I said I will fire her if you try to bring us together again . " said Helios determined with his decision .

" You really are unreasonable ! You don't understand what's good for you . Haaaah !...I am tired . Do whatever you want but don't come to regret your decision later . It will probably be too late by then . " said Mana with a serious tone and got up from the couch where she was sitting then went out of his office , leaving Helios alone in his messy thoughts and emotions .

After Mana left , Helios sat on his chair and slammed the table annoyed .

' Regret ?....Heh....Why would I regret ? What I am doing is the best . I don't love anyone nor will I be able to truly love someone so much as to commit myself completely to that person . I am Helios Castejo . I am a young self made billionaire . A powerful person in this damn business world . Aria...she is just a simple girl . Interesting and trustworthy.....as a friend , I do want her near but as something more...…..I won't be able to be truly committed to her . Crossing the line would destroy this peaceful friendship and.....I may never see her again . ' thought Helios to himself .

Mana went back to her office and saw Bekora waiting for her .

" The others went cause they had some work to do . Did you ask him ? What did he say ? " asked Bekora curious .

" Don't bring up that fool anymore . He is just too stupid . That's it ! I am not allowing Aria to get near him again . She deserves much more than to be stuck with someone like him . " said Mana annoyed as she sat on her chair .

" Emmm.....Mana , what are you saying ? " asked Bekora confused .

" Florence is a great guy and he loves Aria . I will definitely make Aria see his love and fall for him . I will make sure they both get married and when the time comes , I will send their wedding invitation to Helios personally . This will be the perfect slap to his conscience . Stupid fool who doesn't even know how lucky he is . " said Mana extremely annoyed .

Bekora looked at Mana feeling a bit nervous as he rarely got to see her that angry .

After a while , the door of Helios's office opened and a sexy girl wearing a short , tight , black skirt and white t-shirt , revelling her chest a little and hyper curly long blonde hair . The heavy make up and perfume could easily tell that she was trying to catch his attention .

" President , I am very sorry to disturb you . I am the vice manager of the company's Human Resources department B . " said the sexy female .

" The only time when employers are allowed at my office are when they have emergent situations . I see that you are doing quite well here . " said Helios raising his head to look at her .

" I didn't want to disturb the others . " said the sexy female .

" You didn't want to disturb the others so you decided to come disturb me personally ?....You are brave to enter my office as you please . " said Helios untouched by her style .

" I thought that the president wouldn't be that harsh on girls that come here purely just wanting to show their immense admiration and respect to the president . " said the sexy female slowly walking towards him .

" Is that so ? " asked Helios .

Helios wanted to send her off as he didn't feel like even going along with her . Just then he realised something had deeply changed . In the past he would just go along with it but now he simply had lost the entertainment feeling he had of that playful life .
