Chapter 38 - How can a commoner like me meet the royal family ?! (1/2)
While Aria and Helios were discussing , someone kept calling Aria's name and they turned their head toward the voice . The queen and the butler that were hiding behind a tree, spying on Aria and Helios also turned their head in direction of the voice . They remained surprised when seeing Bekora that was rushing towards Aria .
'' Aria , finally... found you ! '' said Bekora while trying to catch his breath .
'' Bekora ! '' said Aria with a big smile and went to him , leaving the pastries and Helios behind .
'' I am so happy to see you Bekora ! I was locked by this weirdo for two hours . Can you please punish him ? '' said Aria with a cute facial expression .
' She still hasn't learned who he is ?!.. But her expression right now is so cute . ' thought Bekora in a daze .
When he saw Helios's murderous glare that was pointed towards him , he snapped out from that daze state in an instant .
'' We will deal with him later , okay . Right now your brother is really mad ! He has blocked the main computers in our company and we are unable to do any work . We have a tough schedule today and an important presentation so please talk to him . He called me and when he learned that you were missing , he started blocking all the computers . My phone has been ringing nonstop by the workers from the company . '' said Bekora with a desperate expression .
'' What has he done ?! '' said Aria in a bit of an angry tone .
'' You only know how to cause trouble for others ! '' said Helios in an indifferent tone .
'' Shut up you ! '' said Aria with a glare but he didn't care about it and started to eat a cookie .
'' What is all this noise ? '' asked queen Margrethe .
'' Grandm...'' said Bekora but was interrupted by the butler who welcomed him in a polite manner which was unusual . Bekora saw that the queen blinked an eye at him and he understood that she didn't want Aria to know .
' It's not new that Aria and Helios may bump into each other and start to fight but how she met grandma Margrethe ?! What has happened in these four hours ?! ' thought Bekora while looking at Aria who was searching her pockets .
'' I can't find my phone ! I must have left it in the library . '' said Aria then was ready to go take it but madam Margrethe stopped her .
'' I will tell someone to go take it , we will wait here . '' said madam Margrethe then the butler ordered a guard to go and take Aria's phone . All of them sat down and waited at the table .
'' I'm really sorry Bekora ! '' said Aria with her head down .
'' Don't worry , if it is solved fast then it won't be considered that much of a trouble . Tomorrow we will go visit the doctor I promised you . '' said Bekora with a smile .
'' Thank you Bekora ! You're such a good person ! '' said Aria with a warm smile .
' Why can she smile like that to everyone except me ?! ' thought Helios angrily when looking at Bekora and Aria .
'' How did you meet each other ? '' asked queen Margrethe .
'' It's a long story but we met in a law case of Bekora's company . '' explained Aria .
Helios became even more annoyed when he heard this . Bekora tried to change the topic and then madam Margrethe asked Aria if she was sick because Bekora mentioned the doctor visit . Aria told her that it was her brother who needed to visit the doctor and not her but didn't tell madam Margrethe the problem her brother had . The guard came soon and handed the phone over to Aria .
When Aria opened the phone she saw five hundred missed calls from Ace and her mother . She got up from the table and hurried to call Ace with the face time app.
'' Hello, Ace ! '' said Aria in a cute tone .
'' Hello .... Are you seriously telling me ' hello ' just like that , without even feeling even a bit guilty about not answering my calls ?!! '' said Ace in a fierce tone .
The other could hear everything that those two were saying clearly .
'' Don't be like this , you know that I often forget my phone . '' said Aria .
