Chapter 240 - Compatibe With Each Other !
Helios looked at Aria with a surprised expression . He was so surprised to the point that he remained slightly shocked .
" I have been working in this restaurant for at least a decade and I have never seen a woman pay the table of the bill before . Mr Castejo , it looks like your life will become much easier with this lovely lady beside you . " said the waiter with a smile .
Helios looked at Aria in a daze . He would have never thought that she would pay for today\'s meal . The meal in this restaurant was at least two hundred euros serving per person .
\' She.....She said that she would pay for the lunch yet......she actually paid for it ?!...This girl never ceases to surprise me . Just when I think that I finally understood her , she shows another unexpected side of hers..... \' thought Helios with a smile .
In his whole life , he was the one who paid for the lunch of the girls that he dated . Not only did he pay for the lunch but he also bought them different luxurious items . Aria was the first girl to not allow him to put his hand on his wallet and pay for him instead .
When he looked at her cheeks she saw her blushing in an embarrassed way when she heard the waiter .
" Hehehehe ! " laughed Helios lightly , almost unnoticeable by the others .
" Right ! She is quite a lovely girl . " said Helios with a smile keeping up with the waiter\'s words .
Right now he was really enjoying Aria\'s shocked expresison .
" Wait a minute ! Sir , I think you are highly mistaken . We are just friends who keep annoying each other . " said Aria with a flushed expression .
" My wife and I were also like that before we got married . Mr Castejo , I hope that you will invite me to your wedding . " said the waiter with a smile .
" I surely will ! " said Helios with a serious expression .
" You gotta be kidding me ?! Sir , please don\'t say such a thing even as a joke . Do you know how many women he has ?! It is stressful to only think about it let alone deal with them . I am the type that prefers a loyal and respectful kind of romance . This guy is totally the opposite . " said Aria with a serious tone .
" See ?! She is too dumb while I am too smart . We really are compatible with each other . " said Helios with a polite smile .
" Who are you calling dumb , mister ?! " said Aria glaring at him .
" I don\' need to point it out do I ?! " said Helios with a devilish smirk .
Aria looked at him annoyed because she had to keep her anger inside and couldn\'t talk back to him . At the end of the day , he was still her boss . Knowing she couldn\'t do anything , Aria headed out leaving Helios and the waiter alone .
" The lady seems quite stubborn mr Castejo. " said the water .
" Hehehe ! You are right , manager . As always , your dish was delicious . " said Helios .
" I am glad that you liked it , mr Castejo . I must say , that I am really surprised to see a girl pay the bill for her boss . Actually , it is my very first time to see such a thing . I honestly don\'t know how I should feel . Should I feel glad or should I remain shocked ?! I seriously don\'t know . " said the manager with a smile .
" Hahahahahahaha ! You can do what you want . I do agree that I was caught off guard when I heard her answer though . " said Helios .
" If I may offer you a piece of advice from an elder in love , mr Castejo....I would suggest you hold a girl like her tightly . She will make your life a lot easier and also enjoyable . No matter how much money a person has , the money can never make that person happy if he or she doesn\'t enjoy the feelings that lift their humor up . " said the manager .
" You have always been a messy artist . I need to go now . " said Helios and laughed a bit then walked towards the door .
" Have a nice day , mr Castejo . " said the manager .
" You too ! " said Helios as he waved at him while walking ahead .
When he went out of the restaurant , he saw Aria looking at her card . He laughed a little then went near her .
" Do you regret paying for the lunch ? " asked Helios with a smirk .
" I am not a person who regrets what she does . " said Aria with a smile .
\' This donkey made me spend a total of five hundred dollars for two plates of spaghetti . \' thought Aria with a glaring stare inside her heart while smiling at him on the outside .
" Really ?! " said Helios a bit doubtful .
" I wouldn\'t let you pay for me anyway . " said Aria with a serious expression .
" Girls should allow boys to pay for them . " said Helios .
" Yes ! You pay for me and others mistake me as your girlfriend . No , thank you ! I have no intention to become the women\'s main target because of your handsome face . " said Aria feeling a shiver on her back from the thought of being stalked by other women because of him .
" Pfft ! You are speaking informally now . " said Helios .
" We aren\'t in working hours boss . It is only normal for me to , speak my mind . " said Aria with a smile as they walked down the stairs .
When they went down the stairs , Helios pressed the button to open his car . Before they entered the car Aria noticed a strange something that caught her attention . She noticed a poor man that was sitting near the bakery , holding a child next to him .
" Why aren\'t you entering ? " said Helios when he saw her looking at the bakery .
" President , can you wait for me two minutes ?! I just wanna buy something at that bakery since I am on my way . " said Aria .
" Didn\'t you already eat ?! You\'re gonna get fat if you continue to eat . " said Helios with a smirk .
" I forgot to buy bread and want to get some before I go home . " said Aria .
" .....Fine , but hurry ! " said Helios .
" Yes ! " said Aria with a smile then closed the door of the car .
Aria passed the street and went straight to the bakery shop in front of the restaurant which was on the other side of the road .
\' This girl only thinks about eating . We just ate . Does she still have space for more food ?! \' thought Helios waiting for her to get out of the shop .
When Aria came out , she was holding two hot bread and two delicious pieces of cake then walked near the poor man .
" Sir , here ! " said Aria and gave then to the poor man , sitting on the road upon an old cloth .
The man looked at the bread with his eyes wide open .
" Daddy...I am hungry . " said the child looking at the food Aria was holding .
" Here you go , kiddo ! " said Aria and gave the kid a whole bread and a piece of the cake she got .
The other bread and piece of cake , she gave to the poor man .
" Thank you......Thank you miss ! Thank you for your generosity ! May God bless you ! " said the poor man and bowed in front of Aria .
" Enjoy the food ! " said Aria with a smile .
From the car , Helios silently watched the whole scene . The words that the waiter said suddenly came to his mind as he looked at her .
\' My life will become easier with someone like her by my side.......I do admit that she makes me laugh with her silly behavior but I can\'t say that she is someone I want by my side . The person who can properly stand by my side must be someone who can share my work with me . She is so silly naive.....Why the hell do I want her in my team so badly when she is not up for the task ?!.......She is a kindhearted girl who has never seen bloody scenes or power struggle before . Taking her on my side , means making her lose this naivety of hers . \' thought Helios when looking at her walking towards him .
" Sorry for the inconvenience ! " said Aria with a smile and opened the door then entered the car .
" Why did you do that ? " asked Helios .
" Not everyone is born blessed like you , president . From the way that child looked , I could sense that they were hungry . The money that the poor man had collected wasn\'t enough to buy a whole bread . I just helped them a little . " said Aria .
" I really don\'t understand why you helped them . Normal people would only ignore them . I am not saying that you did a bad thing , I am just a bit curious . " said Helios .
" They say that the kindness you give will come back at you twice more than the original amount . I just hope that my kindness towards others will be repaid by my little brother being healed . " said Aria with a smile .
