Chapter 236 - So unladylike ! (1/2)

” Did you just say that you were fat ?! ” asked Helios with a smirk .

” No , I didn't ! Let's go inside . ” said Aria and walked ahead .

” You walking ahead means that you are willing to pay the bill of today's lunch , right ?! ” said Helios .

' With my parents here , I need to be extra careful with spending money on stupid things . ' thought Aria when thinking about the future daily expenses she would have .

” You can't afford it , can you ?! ” said Helios with a devilish smirk when he saw her looking her with a pensive expression .

” Who says I don't dare ?! ” said Aria without thinking twice .

” Fine then , I will make sure to order only the best today .  ” Helios with a smile .

” b....But still , you are the president . Shouldn't you be the one paying for this lunch ? ” said Aria when she heard him say that .

” Just like you said I am the boss and you are my loyal employee . You should at least be able to do this much for your boss , right ?! ” said Helios with a smirk .

” Yeah , right ! A loyal employee ! ” said Aria trying to keep her anger inside her .

” Let's go ! ” said Helios .

” Actually.....I am not feeling that hungry now . ” said Aria .

” I never thought that I would hear that from you one day . ” said Helios with a smirk .

Aria looked at him with a calm and serious expression but she didn't expect her stomach to make a huge noise .

” It seems like your stomach is telling you that he wants to eat . ” said Helios .

” Hehehe.....I.....must have been too focused on work and forgot to eat .  ” said Aria with an embarrassed smile .

” Fine then ! I will pay , but since I will be the one paying , we will go where I decide . ” said Aria .

Helios climbed the stairs and went near Aria looking at her with a satisfied expression .

” We are already here and there's no point in going to some lame restaurant . Follow your boss ! ” said Helios with a chuckle and the two of them entered inside the giant castle-like restaurant .

After walking inside , Aria remained amazed at the paintings and the special architecture the place had . That castle , not only looked luxurious but also traditional and full of history . In the middle of those paintings , there was a painting that caught Aria's attention . She remained for a couple of minutes staring at the painting . Helios looked at her who was focused on the painting and went near her .

” The famous painting of Adam and Eva . ” said Helios when he looked at the two people portraited in the painting .

” They were quite daring , weren't they ?! ” said Helios .

” Yeah ! Two fools who would give up eternal life just to embrace each other . How can Eva be so sure that he won't betray her one day ?! How can she be so foolish and give up everything for Adam ?!... ” said Aria with a serious expression when looking at the painting .

” Have you heard their complete story ? ” asked Helios .

”  I have learned it when I was in university . The story of Adam and Eva was concluded at the moment when they ate the forbidden fruit...they became mortals . Even though Eva became a powerful person , she still couldn't let go of her love for Adam . When she saw him with other girls , she tried her best to remain composed , cool, and a strong woman like she had always been but she couldn't always ignore his mistake and close an eye to them . ” said Aria with a serious tone at the end of the sentence .

” What do you think about their love ?! ” asked Helios .

” ....They.....are simply two idiots who couldn't wait to mate . Look at them , where they live . Such peace and tranquility ! Why in the world would I refuse an eternal life like that just for someone else . It makes me often wonder if love is as magical as it seems .  ”  said Aria with a serious expression .

” Shouldn't you girls know the magic of love better than boys ?! ” said Helios a bit confused .

” I don't know but I have seen some girl be the way that you just said . They looked like puppies . I have no intention of becoming a fool like that for a guy . It's a waste of time to stay here . Let's go in and have a good meal that can fill our stomachs . ” said Aria with a noncaring expression and went ahead to the restaurant's entrance .

' This girl is the weirdest one among all . So unladylike ! ' thought Helios with a pleased smile .

When they walked inside , Aria looked at the sake and the beautiful chandelier hanging on the ceiling .

' Never in my life would I have thought that I would see such luxuries . I have been to fancy places but this one is really beyond expectation . ' thought Aria with an amazed expression .

Helios noticed the shiny look in Aria's eyes and went near her .

” Do you want to stay indoors or go to the balcony .

” Eiter way is fine ! ” said Aria .

” I think we should stay indoors . It's a bit windy today . ” said Helios and a waiter came in front of them .

”  Welcome monsieur , mademoiselle ! ” said the waiter .
