Chapter 129 - Specially made coffee (1/2)
Aria looked at Helios with a fake smile then followed the maid to the kitchen . The kitchen was a bit far . On the way, Aria looked at the beautiful architecture of the villa .
' This villa is very beautiful . I like it a lot . How I wish , had a villa like this for my family and myself ! I would be able to live without worries . ' thought Aria with a dreaming smile .
” Miss , this is the kitchen . These are the ingredients and gadgets you need to use to make the master's espresso coffee . ” said the maid .
After handing over the gadgets and explaining to Aria how they worked she went out of the kitchen .
' With all these maids in this villa.....he still, wanted me to prepare coffee for him ?! ' thought Aria annoyed while preparing the espresso .
When she finished , she went to the kitchen door . The moment she approached the door a maid came in .
” Is the coffee ready ?! ” asked the maid .
” Yes ! ” said Aria .
” Good , let's go and bring it to the master . He's waiting . ” said the maid in a serious tone .
' This made is so expressionless...like those maids that serve the vampire lord in the movies . ' thought Aria a bit uncomfortable .
As a commoner, she wasn't used to having maids around . When walking towards the living room she saw that some servants were cleaning the vases , which were put on the corridor as decorations with the utmost care .
' Looking at how careful they are while cleaning these vases , it must mean that they are very expensive.....Still haven't arrived ?! The kitchen here is far from the living room , and to imagine that it's just the first floor . ' thought Aria when she realized that they were still walking .
After three minutes walk , Aria and the maid arrived in the living room . When Helios heard the footsteps , he turned his head and saw that Aria was holding the gold tray with the espresso coffee inside a beautiful , expensive-looking cup .
' The decorations on this cup are very beautiful , they seem more like a royal coffee set . And this tray seems like it's made from gold . ' thought Aria while looking at them with admiration .
” You arrived , finally ! I was running out of patience . ” said Helios .
” I suppose you're well aware of the distance between the kitchen and the living room . Right ?! ” said Aria with a polite tone .
” During working hours , you must always address me as president ! ” said Helios with a serious look on his face .
Aria looked at the maid then went near him , with the golden tray in her hands and gave it to him . When he was getting the cup of coffee Aria had made , he noticed that she kept looking at the maid behind her with a troubled expression .
' She must not feel comfortable with maids around . ' thought Helios with a serious look .
After getting the cup of coffee , Helios drank a sip of it .
” Tell everyone to go and take care of the chores on the second and third floor . I don't wanna see anyone on the first floor ! ” said Helios in an ordering tone to the maid .
” As you wish , master ! Please do wait a bit ! ” said the maid then went to gather all the other maids and servants on the first floor .
Aria looked at her then looked at Helios . They waited for five minutes and Aria realized that there were no more footsteps that could be heard .
” Why did you send the maids away ?! ” asked Aria .
” I wanted to be alone with you . ” said Helios with a seductive smirk .
Aria distanced herself from him a bit scared .When he saw Aria like that he started to laugh .
” Hahaha ! No need to keep your guard up like that . You have no s.e.x appeal , or attractive points which would make me wanna do something indecent , but I admit that I do enjoy annoying you . ” said Helios with a smirk when he saw Aria's dejected face .
” Who's afraid of you ?! I....I just find the fact that you enjoy annoying me , very troublesome . ” said Aria with a dejected expression .
” This coffee is not sweet enough , bring me another one ! You did learned the way to the kitchen already . ” said Helios with a serious look .
Aria took the cup and annoyingly put it in the tray then went to the kitchen again . She boiled the water , measured the temperature then added four sugar spoons . After making it ready , she put it on the tray and went to deliver it to Helios . When she arrived at the living room , she went towards Helios and handed over the new coffee .
” This time I put four spoons with sugar . ” said Aria and handed it over to him .
After taking a sip he put the cup back on the tray .
” Not warm enough , make another one ! ” said Helios with a serious tone and took a file then started to read it .
Aria went to the kitchen and prepared another one then hurried to go to the living room .
' Now that I came fast he won't have complaints about the temperature ! ' thought Aria .
