262 Done for

" Your brother is considered a genius in the tech field . From now on we won't have to worry about the future anymore . " said Kejt excited .

" Great news mom . Thanks for telling me . I am coming . " said Aria .

" Okay , sweetie ! We are waiting for you . " said Kejt smiling closing the call .

" What did she say ? " asked Ace a bit hesitant .

" She said she is very , very happy . Told you that she will be overjoyed . " said Kejt happy , going to the kitchen to prepare lunch .

' Great.....it means she is as happy as she is angry . I am done for . I can only try to delay my meeting with her . ' thought Ace with a frozen smile and defeated expression .

" Mom , we are in short of Aria's favourite lemonade . I am going to go buy it . " said Ace rushing to the door without even hearing madam Kejt .

" He left like that...He must be very excited for his sister coming back . Finally things are taking a turn for the better , for all of us . " said Kejt happy .

After closing the phone call , Aria placed her phone in her pocket then washed her hands .

" He won the tittle as a genius and he doesn't even bother to tell his sister about it ? What kind of brother does that ?..... " said Aria .

" Maybe he truly wanted to surprise you . " said Helios .

" He has a tendency to keep things from me or rather....he forgets to inform me . Today will be the last day he has such a bad habit . That's for sure . " said Aria annoyed .

" You can eat breakfast president . I need to get going now . " said Aria .

" Won't you eat as well ? " asked Helios .

" I lost my appetite . " said Aria .

' Ohaaa.....Now I can definitely say that Ace is done for . To think someone who loves food can lose its appetite ?!!.....Haaah ! The young genius will be having a hard time . ' thought Helios with a nervous smile .

" By the way I am impressed . " said Helios .

" Impressed ? " asked Aria .

" Yes....At least you can prepare a simple breakfast . Even though I am not used to eat such simple breakfast.... " said Helios with a teasing smirk which annoyed Aria .

" A small sandwich and lemonade from the fridge . What did you want ? " said Aria .

" No , it's alright . It's a simple breakfast . " said Helios .

" Well , I can't prepare a five star breakfast for you president . That's not my job . It's your chef's job . " said Aria with an annoyed look and went to grab her bag .

" Wait ! Are you leaving ? I am going as well . I can drop you off at your house . " said Helios .

" Okay ! " said Aria and walked outside .

It didn't take long for Helios to come down . When he looked at the entrance door and saw Aria waiting for him , he smiled in a pleased way .

' .....It isn't such a bad sight after all.... ' thought Helios and walked towards her .

" Can we go now ? " asked Aria .

" Sure ! " said Helios .

The servant came and presented a set of car keys with the car logo on them . Helios looked at them then chose the Bugatti one . After getting in the car and leaving Helios's mansion , Aria kept looking at her phone and seeing whether her brother had ever sent her a message about the situation or not but as she expected , he hadn't sent anything . When they arrived in front of Aria's house , she hurried to get out and go to look for Ace .

" Make sure you don't kill him or break his hands . " said Helios from the window .

" Since when do you care about my brother so much ? " asked Aria confused .

" Now that he is a genius I must employ him right away . He can work for no one else apart from me . " saidHelios with a serious look .

' Why does it sound like a cheesy confession ?....Strange... ' thought Aria looking at Helios with a dumbfounded expression .

Helios smiled at her then started the car to leave .

" Wait ! " said Aria and went back to the window of the car .

" Did you forget something ? " asked Helios .

" No ! I just wanted to ask you . Do you feel better now ? " asked Aria with a concerned look .

" I am fine . " said Helios .

" I am glad the outing inside your maze mall like house was useful . " said Aria with a smile .

" Will you come to work today ? " asked Helios .

" I guess I will . After all if I stay all day at home today it will become quite annoying . " said Aria with a smile then waved at him and walked towards her house .

Helios laughed a little then headed to the company . After parking the car and heading to his office he looked at his phone and saw that no one had called him .

" I guess it's tie I deal with those scary cats . " said Helios with a serious expression and scary smirk .

Meanwhile the others had all gathered together with a pensive look on their face .

" I really wish I could get the day off today . With yesterday's events , Helios will make our day today a living hell . " said Bekora with a discouraged expression .

" Me too ! I wish I could just hide in the office and avoid Helios as much as possible . " said Alex discouraged .

" Should I fake that I have a fly and get away from here ? " said Ramolo with a serious look .

Mana looked at the boys who were depressed into thinking how to avoid making contact with Helios in a helpless way .

" You guys should get a grip now ! I have a feeling that everything will be alright . After all , Aria went yesterday to his house to comfort him . I bet he has released his anger and will be here in great mood . " said Mana winking at them .

" Now that you are saying it like this , I am less worried . " said Bekora with a serious expression .

" Do you really think he has slept with Aria ? " asked Alan .

" Duh ! " said all of them nodding their heads too .

" .....I feel a bit guilty for taking Aria to the wolf's den with my I own hands but Helios is handsome , rich and strong so.....no worries . " said Mana smiling .

" I still don't think he has slept with her . " said Alan .

" Alan , my brother ! Helios , our bro , always gets a girl to relieve himself when he is angry or pissed . He is a playboy . " said Ramolo .

" I would say.....he used to be a playboy . Lately he has become focused only on work . I have never seen him take a female to a bar or somewhere else . " said Alan .

When Alan said that , they started to think about the issue more seriously .

" He has changed his behaviour with women lately but I don't believe he has let the chance to sleep with Aria slip through his fingers . I bet they have slept together . No , I am certain . Helios denies it but I can see that he likes her . When he wants something he always gets it . " said Bekora certain of his thought .

" Let's make a bet then . I believe that he hasn't touched Aria . " said Alan with a confident smile .

" Alright ! We all bet that he has already slept with her . " said Bekora confident that his answer was the right one .

" Good ! The winner gets a week paid break and one of the losers will take over his shift . Who refuses to take the shift , must pay the penalty of five million to me . " said Alan .

" Hey , you are already rich ! Why are you trying to rip us off ? " said Mana .

" I am ripping you off ?....One is a princess and well know fashion designer , the other one is the assistant and secret right hand man of Helios , one of the wealthiest billionaires on the planet , the other one is the heir to a large mafia organisation as well as shareholder of the company Castejo.....You guys are really lacking money . " said Alan sarcastically .

" You are no les rich either . " said Mana .

" I am rich but I enjoy spending your money guys . I need to expand my car collection . " said Alan with an innocent smile .

" Honestly , I have never seen assistants with high pay like you and Ramolo . " said Bekora .

" We aren't simple assistants , that's we get paid a lot more than a normal assistant . " said Ramolo .

" ...Understandable ! " said Bekora nodding his head after realising that his words made sense .

" I am in since I already know I will win . " said Mana .

" Don't be so sure ! " said Alan .

" If you lose , you will cover a week of work for each one of us . " said Bekora .

" Okay ! No big deal but you will have to take two of mine since you are all against me . " said Alan .

" Cool ! Then...I also think the same as Mana . " said Bekora with a smile .

" Me too ! " said Ramolo .

" Alright ! Let's ask then when they come to work . " said Alan with a smirk .

At that moment , the door of Bekora's office opened and Helios came inside , surprising everyone .

" Morning everyone ! How are you today ? " said Helios with a shiny smile .

The smile on Helios's face made the others dumbfounded and petrified . They couldn't believe that he was the same annoyed guy he was yesterday .

" Eeee......Good ?....Morning ? " said the others wondering what had gotten into him .

" Huh ?.....Why are you looking at me like that ? Do I have something on my face ? " said Helios touching his cheek .

" Bro , your smile...is rather terrifying . Actually , it's giving me the chills . " said Ramolo with a nervous smile .

Helios forced a smirk towards Ramolo then looked at Mana .

" Mana , I need to have a word with you . " said Helios pointed at her .

" A word ?....With me ?.....Why ? " said Mana nervous , hoping that he hadn't learned the fact that the person who asked Aria to go over to his place to comfort him was her .

" I am pretty sure you already know the answer to your questions . Come ! " said Helios walking ahead .

" Good luck ! " whispered Bekora .

" I don't want to go . " said Mana with a depressed tone but still followed Helios .
