Chapter 228 - Your Daughter Can't Leave !
After seeing the two of them hug , Helios felt annoyed and went back to the living room without wasting any time . When Helios came , his bad mood could be read immediately by Aria's parents .
" What's with him ?! " whispered Karl .
" I have no idea ! " whispered Kate back with a confused expression .
Soon , Aria and Florence came inside and Aden went towards Aria .
" My sweetie ! " said Aria as she patted his head .
" Aria , did you two finish talking ?! " said her mother with a smile .
" Yes ! " said Aria and looked at Florence who smiled at her in a warm way .
" ....I see ! " said madam Kejt with a light smile .
" I have something to do and need to leave now . Goodbye mr and ms Sarehan ! " said Florence with a polite smile .
" Goodbye ! Sorry if we ruined the surprise . Aria didn't know that we were coming too . " said Kejt .
" I know madam . Don't worry ! Thank you for not getting angry at me ! " said Florence with a smile .
" Oh , my ! How can one get angry at such a polite and handsome boy like you ! " Kejt with a friendly smile .
" Goodnight madam , sir ! " said Florence .
" Goodnight ! " said mr Karl with a pleased expression .
Florence looked at Aria and winked at her before he went out of the door . Aria got up from her seat then went near Florence .
" I shall send you out properly . " said Aria and Helios looked at her annoyed .
Aria followed Florence to the door as he opened it . When they got out and went down the stairs , Florence looked at Aria .
" What's wrong ?! " asked Florence when he saw her .
" .....I am sorry !.....I keep thinking hard about what I should say but........nothing comes to my mind . You have helped me so much and I don't know how I should repay you . " said Aria with a seriously worried expression .
" You don't need to Aria ! " said Florence .
" No ! I need to make it up to you somehow . " said Aria with a determined expression .
' Although the rejection that I made was somehow justified by the kiss that he gave me when I was drunk......Still......he has done a lot of other things for me . He has helped me so much when I didn't know how to deal with the medical stuff . I hate , owing to other people !....Especially to a person as kind as he . ' thought Aria as she looked at the garden outside and all the magnificent
" Pffft ! Hahahahahahaha ! ......Your thoughts are so easy to read ! How can a person be as clear as water ! .........I did what I wanted because , I wanted to do it . It wasn't you who asked for my help , it wasn't you who told me to prepare all this . It wasn't you who told my heart to fall for you . " said Florence with a bright smile and patted her head .
" Just like a little kid ! " said Florenc with a smile and messed her hair up .
" Florence ! Stop it ! " said Aria .
" I better go now ! " said Florence .
" You can stay for dinner if you want . " said Aria .
" No , thank you ! Your mother looks like she's about to make you and Helios for cold water .I would rather avoid that ! " said Florence with a smile and turned his bak .
" I can't bring myself to keep smiling for longer.... " whispered Florence as he walked ahead .
" Goodnight Florence ! Bye ! " said Aria .
" Goodnight Aria ! " said Florence looking at her with his handsome face and a smile then entered the car .
' Bye......my cute love.... ' thought Florence with a gentle smile as he remembered their first meeting and the moments they had spent together .
After seeing Florence leaving Aria did feel a bit guilty but at the same time relieved that Florence took her rejection nicely . She climbed the stairs and went back to her apartment .
Aria looked at the door a bit reluctant to whether she should enter or not .
' Should I just spend the night in the garden ?!.......After seeing my mom's creepy smile.....I don't think I will be safe tonight........Oh , no ! That blonde donkey is still inside ! What the hell is he even doing here ?!........Just to cause me trouble !......I can't let him speak more in front of my mom . I am already doomed enough !.....My mom , is definitely angry and as always she is right to be angry.......Maybe if she sleeps for a bit , she will be less angry tomorrow........Yes , I gotta get that guy out of here then I can speak with her freely and try to put her back to sleep........Although , I don't hold much hope in her getting ' thought Aria with half a smile .
When she entered in she saw her mother looking at Helios .
' I guess she isn't gonna let him go !........Better not tell her who he is , I can't risk mom fainting . When I first learned about his identity , I remained shocked..............my mom will just faint...... ' thought Aria and open the door then went inside with a worried expression .
Helios looked at her with a displeased expression as he came towards the living room .
' Doesn't have the heart to depart from her boyfriend ?! Hmph !.....I would have stopped her if I hadn't broken my phone ! Goddamn it ! How much I hate it when I need something and I don't have it ! ' thought Helios super annoyed but still keeping his cool president image .
Aria went and was about to sit next to her mother but she looked at her with an annoyed expression and pointing her eyes to the space next to Helios . She didn't want to annoy her mother even more and sat next to Helios as she told her . After sitting down Helios looked at her as she smiled in a ' don't tell anything ' way , pressuring him .
" Now......Can the two of you have the courage and consideration in telling me what is actually going on ?! Also , what are these ?! " said Kejt with a serious expression as she showed them the information and photos on her phone .
' I'll kill you Ace ! ' thought Aria when she saw his name on the phone on her mother's hand .
" Can you both please take the time and consideration to explain everything ?! " said her mother with a pressuring expression .
" Mom.........It's not what you think ! " said Aria .
" Tell me then ! What should I think ?!....My daughter left her university in France and didn't get her diploma just so that she could stay near her brother in Denmark and I am totally okay with that since you decided it yourself , although I wanted you to focus on yourself . After I left from here , with a peace of mind thinking that my daughter and son are living together without any troubles..........Look what I get ! A report saying that my daughter was involved with a mafia leader and....these photos where the two of you come out of a mansion that is on fire . What can you say about this ?! " said Kejt with a serious expression .
Aria looked at her and couldn't find out , a reason to try and.....fool her mother . Helios saw that Aria's mother was serious .
" Aria !.....You have been away for three to four years....maybe you have been in other troubles which I may not know.....If you don't tell me the truth and try to fool me.......I will take you , your brother and we will go back together ! Not in London but in Albania !.....We will leave immediately ! " said Kejt with a serious expression .
When Aria heard her mother , she looked at her with a surprised expression because she didn't believe that
' What ?! Leave for Albania ?!......No , she can't ! Not until the matter with my aunt Karen is solved ! ' thought Helios with a serious expression .
Aria was about to talk and Helios raised his hand , telling her to keep quiet .
" Madam , I am your daughter's boss . Your daughter signed a work contract with me and now she is a law consultant , part of my team of trusted employees . She is a naive and a bit childish but a trustworthy and intelligent person . Her work is very good . That's what made me hire her and allow her to join a special team which is the closest to me . In that team , I can guarantee you that even the best students of Oxford or Cambridge.....or other prestigious institutes......can't afford to even take into consideration because it is too much of a high post and also the pay is pretty good for miss Aria . You two can leave if you want , madam but your daughter can't !........Still , if she wanted to leave with you two , I would make sure that it..........very , very hard for you to leave Denmark ! " said Helios with a serious yet pressuring tone .
" I can take serious measures too if you insist , madam ! " said Helios .
" Serious measures ?! You ?! Who do you think you are ?! " said Karl annoyed .
' The owner of Denmark and a wealthy businessman ?!.... ' thought Helios looking at him with a neutral expression .
' Who is he ?!......He can force your daughter to do overwork , to annoy her too much and decrease her salary if you continue to speak...... ' thought Aria with a troubled expression .
