Chapter 256 - Play Basketball (1/2)

” I don't expect you to understand . ” said Helios .

” Oh , please don't ! You and I live a totally different life , like the day and night . ” said Aria .

Helios looked at Aria with a smirk as she went to the changing room . After five minutes , they came out of the changing room and headed towards the basketball yard . Helios was wearing a black shirt with grey shorts while Aria was wearing a white shirt with purple shorts .

” You look good ! ” said Helios with a smirk .

” You too ! ” said Aria .

” Unfortunately , you will not be able to keep up with me . You are so short . With your tiny arms and short feet , how are you planning on beating me ? ” said Helios with a smirk .

” We'll see ! Be careful to not fall from your long arms and legs while you run . I am on break today , I will not do extra work in taking care of you . ” said Aria with an annoyed expression .

” Will you really take care of me if I get hurt ? ” said Helios with a smirk .

” .....Mmmmm...Depends ! Will you pay me , my overtime work ? ” said Aria .

” No ! ” said Helios .

” You are a billionaire yet you are so petty . ” said Aria .

” While you are quite expensive . ”

” Good quality is always expensive mister . ” said Aria .

Helios laughed and threw the ball in the air . To his surprise, Aria came towards him and grabbed the ball from the air by jumping high .

” You are fast ! ” said Helios with a smile .

Aria took the ball and bounced it four times before she could throw it straight in .

” Firs point for me . Get that tall boy ! ” said Aria with a devilish smirk .

” Heh ! Nice play . ” said Helios as he took the ball in his hands then started to bound it .

Aria tried to take the ball from him but she realized that his movements suddenly became faster . He was swift and managed to dodge Aria everytime she tried to go near him to grab the ball . Helios ended up scoring four more points before preparing to score the fifth one .

' He.....he is so good at it ?!! ' thought Aria surprised when she saw how much his level changed .

” Were you going easy in me ? ” asked Aria

” What makes you say that ? ” asked Helios with a devilish smirk .

” Your four point score . ” said Aria .

” Ha ha ha ! I already warned you before the match started . You can't beat me . Consider this a gentleman's favour . ” said Helios with a smirk .

Just then Aria rushed towards him and with a rash movement , she did a triple jump , throwing the ball from afar and gaining the same score as Helios .

” Heh ! I don't need you to go easy on me , nor to be a gentleman mr boss . I would rather use that favour for something else . ” said Aria .

” Which is ? ” asked Helios .

” How about a pay raise boss ? ” said Aria with a smirk .

” He he he ! You are a dangerous businesswoman . You never let any opportunity slip through your hands , do you ? ” said Helios and ran towards her blocking the way .

” Maybe ! ” said Aria with a smirk .

When Aria jumped , Helios also jumped to block her way then the both of them ended up jumping on each other and falling on the ground . Aria opened her eyes and saw Helios standing in front of her . Helios raised his head then stared at Aria and couldn't drive his eyes away . He could feel her warm body and her speed breath as he stared at her .

' We both sweated a lot but her smell becomes sweeter.....Looking at her up this close , it feels like she will not be able to escape from my arms . Such a simple girl..... .' thought Helios looking at her with a serious expression .

” G...G.....Get up , please ! ” said Aria with her face blushing .

When Aria pushed him , he smirked a little then approached his face near her ear , making Aria's heart beat faster .

” .....Look at you , your face is red . ” whispered Helios .

” Of....Of course, it is red ! I.....I...It's because of the game . I ran very fast . You saw it too . ” said Aria with her face blushing even more .

” He he he he ! ” laughed Helios then got up and sat down on the ground holding the ball in his hands .
