BXBX NOVEL Chapter 84 - Close
" Speaking of food.....I am really hungry . " said Aria and touched her stomach with a sad face .
Before Ace could talk the door knocked and asked permision to enter . Aria said enter and the door opened . Three maids came in and each one of them had a tray full of food . The first made had a warm super with vegetables and yellow chees of prime quality . The second maid had a plate with spaghetti full of seafood and mussel . The third one had a delicious caramel cake , a chocolate fondue pastrie and a frappuccino . The moment Aria saw them a big shining smile showed up on her face . Ace looked at his sister who started to eat as soon as the food was put on the table .
" After filling your stomach , I would appreciate an explanation from you . A detailed one to be exact . " said Ace with a smile .
" Haven\'t I already told you when we spoke on the phone ?! " said Aria while eating the cake with caramel flavor .
" You did but what I really want is a detailed and truthful explanation . Understand ?! " said Ace with a threatening smile .
\' This guy must have taken after mom this threatening pressure that he emits . All this delicious food is now ruined in this tense atmosphere . \' thought Aria and nodded then continued to eat the dishes that were in front of her .
In half an hour Aria finished all the food in the three trays and the maids took them off . After the maids went away they closed the door and Ace turned towards Aria , waiting for her to start explaining . While Ace was listening carefully to Aria\'s words , he kept thinking about Helios .
\' From what my sister is saying , she doesn\'t seem to know who Helios is . I really don\'t understand though why he is here in Denmark and in the royal castle ?! He is a billionaire but not a royal . I understand how Bekora came in thanks to my stupid sister who creates trouble but for Helios to be here...That\'s suspicious ! I talked to him about not disturbing her yet he finds a way to mess with Aria . \' thought Ace and continued to listen to Aria .
After explaining Ace tried to keep both his anger and laughs at control .
\' It\'s so tiring to talk to Ace when he\'s angry . Aaaah...I\'m so sleepy . \' thought Aria when looking at her brother who was in deep thoughts .
While waiting for Ace to say something Aria\'s eyes slowly closed and she fell asleep . Today was a tiring day for her with all the events that occurred .
" Aria , I think it\'s....." said Ace then noticed that Aria had fallen asleep .
He looked at her with a warm smile and lifted her up his arms . He slowly put her on the bed and touched her head softly which made Aria show a warm smile .
" Look at you , you\'re older then me but you look like a child . " said Ace with a warm smile .
He got up and prepared to leave the room . He turned off the lights and closed the door before going out .
" Good night sis ! " said Ace and closed the door .
Ace had a very good memory and he remembered both the way to the room where his mother was and the room where his father and brother were staying . He decided to go and stay beside his mother tonight since she still needed time to get used to the idea of Aria being here and try his best to calm her a little . While walking Ace saw that a person with golden hairs was walking .
" What are you doing here ?! Didn\'t you left ?! " asked Ace with a serious tone . From the gold coloured haird he could clearly tell that he was Helios even with the lights off .
" I was the one who ordered the maids to bring the food . I have to get going now , see ya . " said Helios with a smile .
" Wait there ! Why are you here ?! I have said this before too . I don\'t think that a billionaire such as yourself lacks people to do their jobs . Why do you keep bothering my sister ?! " said Ace a bit angry yet in a serious tone .
" True , I am rich and I don\'t lack people to do my work but I do lack faithful people . " said Helios with a grin .
" What do you mean ?! " said Ace always in a serious tone .
He was careful to control his tone of voice cause he knew very well that the man in front of him wasn\'t someone easy to deal with .
" It late now , you must be pretty tired from the flight and the talk just now . We will talk tomorrow . " said Helios . While turning his back and walking ahead then waved at Ace .
" That guy is clearly no good news ! " said Ace with an annoyed expression and left towards the room where his mother was staying .
Helios walked for a bit till he arrived at his room . He saw that a maid was outside was waiting for him .
" Your Highness ! " said the maid and bowed .
" What is it ? " asked Helios with a serious expression .
" Your highness ! The clothes you wore at the ball , we didn\'t recieve any order on what to do with those . Those are very expensive clothes . Should we wash them or should we put them to your room Your Highness ?! " asked the maid .
" Wash them carefully before putting them in my closet . Especially the jewels ! " said Helios in a serious tone .
" Yes , Your Highness ! " said the maid and left .
Helios entered the room , took his clothes off and wore his night clothes . When he went to bed he took a work file which he hadn\'t read then started to look at it .
\' Klara was kidnapped and the kidnappers clearly knew in which direction to head to escape earlier . They were clearly heading towards one of the secret passageways . Someone must have given them some kind of information regarding the infrastructure of the castle . Apart from the royal architect , engineer and the royal family no one knows about the passage ways .
If they had the intention to kill Klara they would have done so already but they didn\'t . I better investigate clearly who\'s the spy..... Luckily that little tigress was suspicious in time , thanks to that we were able to save Klara . \' thought Helios while looking at the golden decorations up at the ceiling .
\' She has helped me a lot ! She helped me take care of the case with my aunt, she saved my cousin , she saved my sister and now she\'s helping my grandmother with the minister\'s case . True she had some requirements of her own but at least she did a very good job...Maybe.....should I try and trust her ?! \' thought Helios and a smile appeared on his face .
Helios aslo thought about the conversation Aria and Ace had . He went to the maids , told them to prepare some good food and send it to miss Aria\'s room .
After the maids delivered the food Helios made a sign from outside and they went out . After Aria finished eating , the maids came in and took the blank plates away . He started to eavesdrop their conversation and laughed a bit at how sincere Aria was when she was telling Ace about everything she had done in this palace and how she met everyone . When he saw that Ace was about to take Aria in his arms and put her in the bed he thought that she would hit her brother just like she hit him . To his surprise Aria showed a warm smile and leaned her head on his chest with a calm expression on her face . This made Helios a bit annoyed and weird at the same time .
\' She had such a gentle look on her face when her brother was holding her . She has never made that kind of expression in front of me . She and her brother are so close to each other , it\'s easy to mostake them for lovers cause Ace is taller and more mature minded then her . It\'s hard to believe how harmonious their bond is . I too have a sister but we aren\'t that close , not even Bekora with his sister . I still cannot understand how they came to be so close . Somehow their close relationship makes me a bit annoyed . Anyway I better go to sleep now , tomorrow I have to deal with that troublesome sister of mine and annoying brother of hers . \' thought Helios then went to sleep .
Morning came and Ace woke up early cause ge wanted to discuss with Helios before his sister got up . He wanted to try and leave the room before his mother woke up .
" Ace....you\'re up ! Good morning son ! " said madam Kejt with a big smile .
" M..Mom , good morning ! " said Ace a bit dejected that he couldn\'t leave anymore .
" Ace , why did you wake up so early ? " said madam Kejt while going out of the bed .
" I....Aria is atill worried about you and she told me to go tell her immediately when you wake up . I wanted to go tell her , see if she\'s awake or not and so....." said Ace a bit off guard .
\' My intelligent son speaking like this ?! Clearly he\'s lying ! What are these kids planing on doing again behind my back ?! \' though madam Kejt suspicious of Ace\'s behavior .
