Chapter 229 - How Do I Get Myself Fired ?!
" I am your daughter's boss ." said Helios with his natural calm tone .
" Your mother is right Aria ! This job of yours is very dangerous . You better leave it ! I don't believe that you , my daughter can't find another job with your amazing skills . " said mr Karl .
' That wouldn't be a bad idea..... ' thought Aria then peeked a bit at Helios who was staring at her with a threatening look , clearly telling her that she would be dead if she agreed .
" She can leave the job if she isn't satisfied with it . Of course, she can leave her job if she is willing to pay the compensation fee . Wanna know the amount miss A-ri-a ?! " said Helios looking at her with a smirk .
Although she managed to finish them , it left a deep bitter memory in her which she didn't want to experience ever again . Dealing with all those files and data made Aria so tired to the point that she was forced to take her little brother to the company and keep him with her until she finished her job .
" If you agree , I will make sure that no one in Denmark hires you , not even as a pet carer ! " whispered Helios with a smile .
" You....You won't do that ! " whispered Aria with a smile .
" Agree and see it for yourself if I will make it impossible for you to get employed elsewhere . In any kind of file from the most important to the most insignificant one . " whispered Helios .
" Why are you so.....like this ?! How did I meet such a devil ?! " whispered Aria .
" You should have been more careful when you decided to use my statue to be a hero . Thanks for the compliment by the way ! " said Helios with a devilish smirk .
" Since I have taken that statue , nothing good has happened to me ! I keep getting myself in huge trouble because of you . That statue must be a jinx ! " said Aria with a serious expression .
" What you call a jinx , others call it a lottery prize ! " said Helios with a bragging smile .
" Because they only see the image of the money and not the difficulty that a person has to undergo in order to get them after handing the winning ticket . " said Aria .
' I wish I could leave your claws but........how in the world can I get myself fired ?!...Plus the pay is so nice and tempting . Calm your inner spirit Aria ! Think about all the nice things that you can do once you get the money . ' thought Aria with a forced smile when remembering all the files she had to reorganize .
Although she managed to finish them , it left a deep bitter memory in her which she didn't want to experience ever again .
" Whatever ! I think you need some time to realize how lucky you are .
' Lucky my foot ! ' thought Aria .
" So , what is your final response for the job ?! Wanna quit ?!....I can ask Bekora to bring the contract . " said Helios with a polite smile .
" No ! No ! How can I leave my job ?!...I like it a lot . I like the workplace , I like my colleagues , I like the coffee , I like the comfortable chair....I like everything about that job ! " answered Aria immediately .
" Wow miss Aria ! I never knew that you enjoyed your work so much ! I will make sure to add some more files to your desk tomorrow . " said Helios with a smirk .
" ...Y....Yes , b....boss ! " said Aria trying her best to keep smiling despite boiling with anger within her .
' It's so fun watching her annoyed yet smiling ! I can never get enough of this ! ' thought Helios with a smirk .
Helios and Aria were so focused on their silly argument that they forgot Aria's parents .
" Do they take us as if we are nonexistent ?! " said mr Karl looking at them annoyed .
" ....It seems so ! " said madam Kejt .
' I have never seen my daughter like this . Even with the guy that left a while ago . She wasn't like this.....This guy... seems like he is teasing her....Hmmmm.....is it just my imagination ?! ' thought madam Kejt with a serious expression looking at the two of them as they argued like children .
" We aren't understanding a thing but I am sure that.....you boss must e tired . " said mr Karl who couldn't stand the atmosphere anymore .
Helios turned his head towards Aria's father and showed a smirk which annoyed mr Karl even more .
" It is getting late now and I need to go back . As for the issue , I explained that we just went there to get some documents . Who would have thought that we would be stuck in a fire . Accidents happen madam . You should understand that . " said Helios with a serious tone .
" Accidents , huh ?! Fine then ! Let's say it was just an accident.....for now ! Why does my son write a report about it ?! " said madam Kejt .
" Your son is very intelligent and talented in dealing with computer systems . I have asked him to make a full report over the actions because my company needs it . I can't tell you the specific details to as why the company needs it though because it has to do with the files that I had to take . " said Helios with a polite yet reasoning tone .
" I see !....I understand mr Helios ! Thank you for your explanation !.....You said that you were leaving right ?! Then......Goodnight , mr Helios ! " said madam Kejt with a smile .
' From her composure and tone , she isn't thinking of me in a positive way at all . It's interesting ! ' thought Helios with a smile and got up from the couch .
" Goodnight everyone ! Goodnight little body !... " said Helios .
" Goodnight boss ! " said Aria with a relieved smile that Helios was finally leaving .
" Night ! " said mr Karl with half a tone .
" Miss Aria , you don't seem to bother to see me out . It's very disrespectful . " said Helios with a smirk .
" I made a mistake ! I shall see you out ! " said Aria with a forced smile .
' I have to get rid of this guy as soon as I can !....I don't wish him to see my mother forcing me to do house chores in the most demoniac speed possible . ' thought Aria with a nervous expression cause she knew that there was no way she would escape her mother's anger once the guests had left .
" Aria ! " said mr Karl but Kejt stopped him .
" Let her go to see him out . We will ask her later . " said Kejt .
" Don't you find their relationship a bit weird honey ?!.....Aria looks like she wants to hide something from us too ." asked mr Karl .
" I do ! Aria will fill me in the details later . I don't really care much about these people as long as our daughter stays out of trouble . " said Kejt .
" I agree ! " said mr Karl .
As Aria walked down the stair Helios kept looking at the figure behind her and couldn't help but keep thinking that she would disappear if he didn't get a hold of her . She wasn't like the other girls that he knew , like the other girls that he could capture just by using his money . Although Aria learned his true identity , she didn't change much , she remained the same girl as she always had been . The only change was that she had become more careful about the way she behaved in front of him . The fact that she hadn't changed made helios relieved but at the same time displeased , that she was being careful around him because to him , it sounded as if she was wary towards a stranger and not a person to whom she had created a ' weird friendship ' with .
" Hey , little tigress ! " said Helios when they arrived on the first floor .
' There he goes again !.... ' thought Aria annoyed .
" I have a name and that name isn't little tigress , president ! " said Aria .
" Whatever ! Stay here for a bit cause I wanna ask you something . I am curious about two things . Why didn't you tell your parents who I am ?! " said Helios .
" ....I don't want them to freak out . You may be used to be around rich people president and the fact that you are a billionaire isn't of much news to them but to people like me and my family......that's quite a shock !.....I may be your assistant but I didn't even know what and with whom I had to work . When I learned who you are.....Seriously , I almost had a heart attack ! " said Aria annoyed .
" Hahahahaha ! I will take this as a compliment too ! " said Helios with a smile when he heard her .
' I don't know what was to be praised for this... ' thought Aria with a confused expression .
" What was the other thing that you were curious about ?! " asked Aria cause she couldn't stand his self-centeredness and satisfied smile any longer .
" ...I heard that your birthplace is Albania . Will you go back there in the future ?!..... " said Helios with a serious tone as his jokingly smile vanished .
" Yes ! " responded Aria immediately without too much thought .
" Why ?! " asked Helios surprised by her answer .
