Chapter 148 - Expensive drinks (2/2)

” It's not hard because it's not the truth . I am a very sweet and cute person with the people who are polite and a tigress with the annoying ones who don't know how to behave . ” said Aria with a serious tone .

” Are you talking about me ?! ” said Helios who couldn't believe that she had the guts to call him annoying again after reading the information about him .

” I didn't mention any names president . Why are you so sure that I am talking about you ?! ” said Aria with an innocent smile .

When they heard Aria they laughed a little .

” It seems like you still haven't done your research homework on me . ” said Helios with an annoying smile .

” I am sorry but with all that huge amount of workload I have , it's impossible to find the time and do my homework . ” said Aria .

' Aria , I really like your guts and the way you leave Helios speechless . ' thought Bekora when looking at both of them .

Florence noticed that the atmosphere around Aria and the president of the Castejo company was a bit too friendly and unusual between an employee and her boss .

” Aden you should really teach her how to be, at least five percent as cute as you are . ” said Helios and enjoyed Aria's annoying and worried expression .

” In my opinion, you're cute enough Aria because you're sweet , intelligent, and strong . Even that is a unique beauty itself . You don't have to worry too much about this . ” said Florence with a warm smile which made Aria's heart skip a beat .

She was always told to try and behave in a more cute way , that was fit for a girl cause she was always the strong type . Mana noticed that Aria's expression changed into that of a young girl who was about to fall in love and looked at Helios . As she expected he had noticed it too and could hardly put on the mask of an uninterested person .

' This is a good lesson for a selfish and arrogant person like you , brother ! You need to learn to be a bit more tolerant of the new people you meet....but at least , Aria managed to get accepted within the group , which is already a piece of great news , also a step forwards to him mending his trust issues . ' thought Mana with a serious expression .

After five minutes the waiter came and brought the drink they had ordered . Aria remained astonished when she saw the bottles . They looked like they were made from pure gold and pieces of diamonds which were on the side of the white gold .

' These shiny small stones on the bottles looked as if they were real diamonds . The imitation is perfect ! ' thought Aria amazed .

She looked at Aden's rainbow c.o.c.ktails and decided to pay for everyone's drinks . Aria didn't know what drinks they were , she only knew that they had alcohol in it . When the waiter brought the bill , the bill had an unusual format . It was an IPad shaped gadget with the card the money space . When Aria saw the number showed on the screen she remained shocked .

' Seventeen millions ?!!!!! Just these bottles ?! And these two glasses of c.o.c.ktails.....their price is the same as the salary that I'll get next month from the Castejo company.......I could have bought aa very comfortable house with these four bottles and have paid the electricity , water and food expenses for five years !....I suddenly feel an urge to steal these bottles ! ' thought Aria still shocked while looking at the bottles and c.o.c.ktails on the table .

When she saw them drink , she imagined as if they were eating pure money .

' To spend so much money on drinks which you'll later go and throw in the toilet...It's truly a pity and nerve-wracking...to the point that I feel like crying ! ' thought Aria and looked at the c.o.c.ktail she had on the table .

' Should I take this back and ask for a refund ?!....No , even if I did take the refund I will have to give it to Mana since she paid for it . ' thought Aria .

She looked at the bill to see how much Aden's c.o.c.ktail was and freaked out .

' Twenty thousands ?! Just one ?!...Aden finished two glasses , now he has another three left...one million for just five c.o.c.ktails ?!!.....If I look at the bill again , I feel like I will faint . ' thought Aria . For a girl like her , who worked hard to earn money , the bill she saw was too much for her mind to bear .

” Aria , can you drink alcohol ? ” asked Florence with a polite smile .

” Yes , I can drink up to four bottles of wine without getting drunk . ” said Aria with a smile .

” Super , then would you like a glass of this ? ” said Florence and gave Aria a glass od Isabella Islay whiskey .

” As far as I know children are not allowed to drink . ” said Helios when Florence handed over the glass of whiskey to Aria .

” I am not a child president ! ” said Aria annoyed and took the glass .

” Before drinking remember that you have a lot of work to do tomorrow . Don't say I didn't warn you ! ” said Helios with a serious tone .

' This guy !!! Does he have the intention to make me die from overworking ?!!! ' thought Aria with an annoyed expression and left the glass with Isabella Islay whiskey on Florence's side of the table .

” Sorry Florence ! Now that the president mentioned it . I really have a lot of unfinished work to do tomorrow . ” said Aria dejected .

' How I would wish to have tried a sip of the taste of raw money !! ' thought Aria with a sad expression .

Florence remembered what Aria told him when they were in the car and the day she came to take Aden from his uncle's clinic . She had told him that she had a lot of work to do and with the company Castejo's sales , it was normal for her to be busy .
