Chapter 25 - I am proud of you (2/2)

” Aaaaaaa.....da....aaaaa ” said Aden .

”I missed you a lot little Aden . Sister loves Aden the most . ” said Aria while lifting him up and kissing his sweet and a bit chubby cheeks.

” It seems like he missed you too Aria .” said Keith .

” Little lion . ” said Ace and patted his head softly. Aden laughed . Aria released him from her arms and he went to the kitchen . While seeing Aden that went Aria's gaze gasped her mom's sad expression .

” What's wrong mom ? ” asked Aria a bit worried.

” No nothing ! It's just that ...your aunt called and said that she won't be able to come for vacations this time . ” said Aria's mom with a sad tone . She had a great relationship with her sister and it was hard for them due to the fact that she was married in Germany and lived in Berlin with her husband and daughter. She came sometimes for vacations but still it was hard to come and go .

” Actually, about that .... I suggest you don't be sad mom cause we will go there and even stay for a whole month . I assure you that you will be spending all the time with aunt Bana shopping to your heart's content. ”

Keith remained stunned when she heard what her daughter said and then looked at Ace to see if it was a joke or not . Ace was smiling while nodding his head .

” Are you serious Aria ? ” asked ms Keith .

” Yes mother ! I am ! ” said Aria while smiling and hugged her mother .

” But the expenses ...” said ms Keith cause it would cost a lot to go there .

” Don't worry about it and leave it to your daughter . ”

” Where did you get that much money missy ?! ” asked ms Keith in a suspicious tone .

” Remember the case I have been working on lately . I did a great job and saved my temporal boss a lot of money. To show his gratitude to me for saving his precious company he will pay all the expenses of this family trip also Aden's medical visit with the best doctor in German .” said Aria in a proud tone .

” Really ?! Is it true ? ” asked ms Keith smiling .

” Yes it is but ...”

”But ??? ”

”But unfortunately we will separate cause I won't be going with you but with the vice boss . Don't worry about the guide cause you will take their private jet and go straight in Berlin accompanied by a guide . ” said Aria and then looked at her mother . She thought that she would be a bit sad that she wouldn't depart with them but unexpectedly her face expression was totally different.

” A boss who is willing to pay fo this expensive trip and medical appointment requires my daughter to accompany him when going there and not letting her depart with her family ...hmmmm well done daughter, keep this up . ” said ms Keith with a smirk .

” You're suspicious ?! .... I tell you , don't imagine weird things . ” said Aria in a serious tone .

” What do you expect me to think then , in this kind of situation ?!!! ”

” I cannot deal with this . Ace explains to mom everything from the beginning ! ” said Aria with a sight and prepared to leave .

” Fine but where are you going now sis ? ” asked Ace .

” I am going to fill my stomach ! ” said Aria and then went to the kitchen where the meal was almost ready .

Ace went with ms Keith to the living room to explain the situation to their dad too . While they started to chat Aria was waiting for the cookies to be baked . While waiting she decided to eat something from the table .

” Finally some real food ! I was going on a hunger strike in that stupid hospital . ” said Aria and started to eat to her heart's control the delicious food prepared by her mother .
