Chapter 123 - Laxatives (1/2)

Alan arrived fast and had brought what Helios had asked for . Helios took the medicine from his hands and put it inside Aria's breakfast .

” Helios , are you sure it's okay ?! ” asked Alan with a troubled tone .

” Yeah ! I am doing nothing wrong , just following her thoughts . ” said Helios while putting the medicine on the food .

' Earlier I hoped that you could eat the food Aria but now I am seriously hopping that you don't eat it !....Bro Helios is really acting very weirdly since she came yesterday , he's being very childish . Let's just hope that Aria can pass through this . ' thought Alan with a tired expression .

After putting the medicine in the food , Helios smiled in a devilish way .

' This is gonna be fun ! ' thought Helios with a smirk .

He ordered Alan to take the food and follow him to Aria's working place .

The door suddenly knocked on the door and Aria got up to open it . Alan was faster and opened the door then Helios entered in there .

' What does he want this time ?! ' thought Aria with an annoyed expression .

” How's the work going ? ” said Helios with a serious expression on his face .

” Everything is under control . I am nearly finished with the files and I will start with the building project . ” said Aria with a smirk and in a proud tone .

” Finished ?! Are you serious ?! ” asked Helios surprised . Alan told him that she had finished them but he found it hard to believe that she could be so fast .

” Of course ! I have finished three hundred and eighty files till now . ” said Aria with a proud expression and a smirk .

' Wow ! I didn't see that coming ! She's the first to have survived a massive overwork like this . When I did it to Bekora and Mana , they were exhausted to the point that they were willing to go to our quarters in Australia . The company in Australia in one of our most profitable companies and the work load is double . They don't even have time to go around and play like they are usually used to . I remember , when Bekora and Man came from Australia they had lost weight . Since then they became very obedient . Apart from me , the only one who manages the company in Australia is Alan . He's what people usually would call terrifying when it comes to handle a lot of work load , but he actually said that Aria is amazingly terrifying . The number of files that she was able to finish in one single day is indeed impressive I can't deny that ! ' thought Helios with a surprised face .

” Good ! Also I was told that you rejected my kind offer . May I know the reason why ?! ” said Helios with an annoyed tone .

' Will she have the guts to say what she said earlier ? ' thought Alan with an anxious look .

” I had to reject it . The president has never been kind to me and no he suddenly brings breakfast for me ?! I am afraid that the president may have put poison inside otherwise there's no way that he would be so kind to me . ” said Aria with a serious expression .

' She actually said it right in his face ?!!!!! ' thought Alan who didn't believe that she would really say it .

” Is that so ?! Well , you're wrong and I find it only right to prove my innocence this time . I didn't put poison in it . Plus i gave it to you just so that you wouldn't faint . It would be too much of a pain if you got sick .” said Helios and ordered Alan to bring the food forward .

The luxurious breakfast had a croissant , a plate of rice with sea products , sakura tea and a small place filled with caramel . He took a fork that was placed near the tray where the food was then took a shrimp from the rice and ate it . Aria looked at him with a doubtful expression .

” Do I look like I am poisoned ?! ” asked Helios with a smirk .

” It usually takes , half an hour for the poison to act up , If it's not a deadly poison . If it is a deadly poison then within five minutes you will belong to the other world . ” said Aria with a smirk .

” For real ?! I guess , I have to stay here then and prove it to you that you're wrong . ” said Helios an looked at her with a dumb expression when hearing her say so .

” Whatever ! I will get back to the files . ” said Aria and returned to her seat .

He ordered Alan to take the IPad in his office and bring it to him here while he waited for thirty minutes to pass so that Aria would believe him .While waiting for

” Seeing that you still behave like this means that you haven't done a research on my background . ” said Helios with a smirk .

” Correct , I haven't ! I have a lot of file to finish . Plus the fact that you're the CEO of the Castejo corporation is enough of a shock . ” said Aria .

” Scared to know more ?! ” said

” Actually , not interested in knowing more . ” said Aria and continued back to her files .

Alan came inside and handed over the IPad to Helios . He often peeked at Aria to see whether she could be affected by his presence or not . When he saw her , |she was writing with the speed of a computer . This left Alan and Helios surprised .

' Seeing how , concentrated and calm she is on her work means.....that she has zero interest in me...geez , I doubt she is a female ! How come she doesn't feel attracted by me at all ?! ' thought Helios a bit irritated .

Aria looked at the clock on the wall and saw that thirty minutes had already passed .

' Great , half an hour passed already . Now he can finally leave and let me work in peace . Having him here gives me a headache . Each time I see him I will be reminded of the fact that I lost my first kiss to a donkey ! ' thought Aria annoyed .

” Okay ! Half an hour passed and you're alright . It means that I was wrong , you didn't poison the food .” said Aria with a polite smile . She couldn't wait to get rid of him .

' I can clearly read it from her eyes that she can't wait to get rid of me . ' thought Helios with a smirk and got up from the couch .

” I'm glad that you finally understood . ” said Helios with a smirk and left the room with Alan .

Alan opened the door and Helios entered in his office then sat on the couch . There was another angle from where he could see Aria while she was sitting on the couch .

” Now , we just have to wait ! ” said Helios with a devilish smirk .
