BXBX NOVEL Chapter 15 - I Promise To Be There
"Well isn\'t that the case ! Women only say they are busy when they have a date or go to the hairdresser . " said Helios looking at Aria in an annoyed way .
"Mr , with what kind of women have you been hanging around with ?!!" said Aria who was angry for already being late for her appointment in the hospital.
"Let me tell you that you will be in big troubles if you don\'t solve this . My boss gave me this just in case you don\'t want to cooperate if we face problems during the court process.I have the video of your heroic act right here . " said Helios and then took his phone out and opened the video where Aria took his statue to hit the robber. She was an expert in terms of law and knew perfectly well that if he brought it to court she would have to compensate for the damage .
"Earlier you said that women only say they cannot do something when they have a date or have to go to the hairdresser but let me tell you that you\'re wrong if you group me with those arrogant girls. To me nothing is more important than my family . I have waited for half a year to get an appointment with my little brother\'s doctor to discuss about his condition.Threaten me all you want but I won\'t miss this appointment even if I were to go to jail . " said Aria with determination while looking straight at Helios\'s eyes . The eyes that no one dared to face were being faced by a girl who was innocent and smart at the same time .
"When in the court meeting scheduled ? " asked Aria .
"In half an hour ." replied Helios.
"Okay ! I promise I will go there as fast as I can . " said Aria .
"Fine ! I will try to believe you but if you think of escaping then I\'ll make you pay ." said Helios with fiercely eyes .
Aria felt a chill . The more she looked at him the more she felt that his aura was scary and full of authority . Like that of a boss rather than a simple employee.
\'Maybe is just my baseless thinking . How could I have encountered a boss ? \' thought Aria to herself .
"The company\'s driver will give you a lift . It\'s faster that way . " said Helios but in truth he wanted to make sure she wouldn\'t escape.
"Fine ! I wonder why they put you as the tech manager when you have such excellent guarding skills . Truly a pity , you would have been a really good guard ." said Aria who understood his intentions immediately and then shut the door leaving him dumbfounded.
"This girl....! " said Helios annoyed .
He turned around and saw from the window Aria who was running towards the driver . She entered the car and then left .
\'She sure is fast .\' thought Helios.
Even thought he let her go , he felt a bit uneasy about trusting her .
"I wonder if I made the right decision in trusting her ?" said Helios to himself while sighting. He remembered the conversation he had with Aria a few minutes ago .
\'Hmmm...not to group you with those arrogant girls ? Anyone can speak nice words but it\'s hard to put them into action. \' thought Helios and showed a smirk on his face .
The door opened in a hurry and it was Bekora who was angry and stressed at the same time .
"I can\'t believe how can you calmly smirk like that when we are about to lose the company we cherish most ?!!!!!!!! " said Bekora in a voice louder than usual.
"What are you doing here ? Shouldn\'t you be with those shitty lawyers of ours , searching the documents right now ? " said Helios.
"There\'s no clues about those who stole the documents . The security cameras haven\'t registered nothing unusual . " said Bekora worried .
"Where is Mana ? "
"She had a job to do and left . She didn\'t tell me what it was though ."
After saying this Bekora noticed that Aria wasn\'t in the hall .
"Where is Aria ?!!!!" asked he panicky .
"She went in Tereza hospital for an appointment which was very important to her ." answered Helios.
"And you let her go ????"
"Yes !" answered Helios who started to look at some work material in his phone .
"Helios, have you gone nuts ?!!! Without Aria we are bound to lose the main company . Why did you let her go ? What\'s wrong with you ? " said Bekora angrily .
"I value this company the same way you do . She had to go and consult with her little brother\'s doctor about his condition. She said it was hard to reserve an appointment with him and now she wouldn\'t miss it for nothing in the world ." said Helios with a gentle smile on his face .
Bekora remained quiet while watching Helios\'s expression which was hard to explain. He understood Aria\'s situation , after all at the informations we collected about her , it was written that she loved her brothers and mother more than anything .
"I even threatened her but she didn\'t blink an eye . I am telling you either she is too stupid or too sly . The last time someone looked at me this way was when I was ten years old ."
"Well it is well known how scary you are so if I have to answer I would say ,stupid . " said Bekora .
Helios laughed a little.
"But tell me the truth . Do you believe that she will be back ? Even though you have sent a guard I am sure she will find a way to mislead him and escape if she wants too . " said Bekora a bit worried .
Helios turned around , facing Bekora . The look in his eyes became fierce and his expression more serious.
"This is just a test . I need to know if she can be trusted . " said Helios then with a vicious smile on his face he continued.
"If she really dares to not show up then I will make her life more miserable than it already is ."
Bekora felt a chill behind his back when he saw how scary Helios can be .
