Chapter 241 - I will call you by your name when you call me by my name ! (1/2)
” Kindness is always repaid in some ways ?!.....Never heard about this before and I don't think it makes sense . ” said Helios with a laugh .
” For the first time , I am not surprised by your answer . Of course , it may look like a silly thing to a lord of your caliber but to some.....it's the only branch of hope on which they can hang on . ” said Aria with a serious expression .
Helios remained a bit surprised when he heard her talk informally , with a serious tone .
' When she speaks like this , she reminds me of the first time we met . Fearless and not respectful at all . Since she learned that I am the CEO of the Castejo group she has been careful yet bold when speaking with me . ' thought Helios with a smile .
” You are right ! I don't understand such things . ” said Helios .
” I hope one day you can be miserable enough to find yourself in need to grab on something . That arrogance of yours can only be fixed once you experience hardsh.i.p.s . ” whispered Aria annoyed .
” Who told you that I haven't faced any hardsh.i.p.s ?! ” said Helios .
Although Aria was whispering , he was still able to hear her and showed a smirk .
” I....I.....didn't say anything . ” said Aria .
” If you intend to play the fool , then you shouldn't have said it in the first place . ” said Helios as he looked at the embarrassed face of Aria .
” Everyone has hardsh.i.p.s ! Your hardsh.i.p.s are considered no less than mine . ” said Helios .
” Sorry but I don't believe that ! You must have been a spoiled brat and now you have grown up to an annoying person . ” said Aria .
” You are half right and half wrong . I had everything I could ask for but at the same time...I never had what I needed . ” said Helios and his expression changed into a melancholic one .
Aria was about to ask him the meaning of his words but remained silent as she saw him .
' .....Should I ask him ?...No.....It has nothing to do with me . ' thought Aria and decided to remain silent .
The silence in the car lasted until they arrived at Aria's house . Helios was about to help her with the security belt but when he saw the Aria had already taken it off he showed a forced laugh .
” Why do you have to be so.... ? ” whispered Helios and bit his lip with half a smile .
” Thank you for taking me home , boss . ” said Aria .
” No problem , little tigress ! ” said Helios .
When Aria heard him , she felt a bit annoyed .
” Boss ! ” said Aria .
” Yes , little tigress ? ” Helios with a smirk .
” Why do you keep calling me little tigress ?! I am sure that I told you , I have a name ! ” said Aria with a serious tone and forced smile .
” ....Hmmmmm......Now I remember ! ” said Helios acting as if he had forgotten .
” Can you please stop calling me little tigress and start calling me by my name now that you remember ?! ” said Aria .
” Okay ! I will start calling you with your name when you start calling me by my name . Both at work and in daily life .” said Helios with a smirk .
” You are my boss and it wouldn't be considered polite if I called you by your name . ” said Aria refusing immediately .
” Since you agreed to be part of my team , your status has upgraded . ” said Helios with a smirk as he wore his sunglasses .
' Calling him by his name would certainly make me the enemy of all the females in the company . The pink media said that more than half of the female population were after this donkey . I would literally be posting a killing warrant for myself if I called him by his name . Not to mention that rumors about him spread like the wind . ' thought Aria .
When he saw Aria burdened , he could guess what was on her mind right away and laughed a little .
” I need to go now . Tomorrow I will come to get you and show you , your other job . Also your teammates . ” said Helios with a smile .
” Okay ! Goodbye ! ” said Aria with a fake smile as she waved at Helios , who left with his car .
' Annoying donkey ! For the sake of becoming a rich independent person , I will keep up with you . ' thought Aria .
As she walked up the stairs she heard the door of her apartment open .
” Dadada ! ” said a voice .
