Chapter 242 - I definitely am !

' Thanks to that annoying guy , I haven't been able to sleep at all last night ! Damn him ! I am so curious that I can barely keep myself from calling him last night . Apart from that , I also couldn't help but start imagining all the things that I would be able to do once I became a millionaire . Haaaaaaa........That's the only medicine to relax my nerves !.... ' thought Aria while brushing her teeth .

The beautiful benefits that came along with luxury , started to make Aria dreamy . Aden entered the bathroom and noticed that his sister has a weird smile on her face . He looked at her with a confused expression .

" Aria ! What are you doing in the bathroom ?! Look at the time ! You are gonna be late ! " said Kejt with a serious tone .

Kejt's voice woke Aria up from her imagination in a second . She looked at her phone and noticed that it was late . It was almost ten am . She hurried to wipe her mouth and went to dress up .

" I better wear something comfortable today . I may need to move a lot . " said Aria and wore a sportive costume then hurried to the table .

" Morning Aden , dad , mom ! " said Aria and took two pieces of bread covered with jam .

" You told me that you had a busy day today . Where are you going ? " asked Kejt .

" I am going to work . " said Aria .

" Dressed like that ?! " said Karl looking at her sportive outfit .

" We have a different kind of job to do today .  " said Aria and kissed Aden on the cheek . 

She took her bag and prepared to leave , holding the two pieces of jam with her mouth .

" What work requires you to wear so casually ?! " asked her dad .

" I am super late guys ! I will tell you when I come back . " said Aria .

' Rather , I will come up with a lie . ' thought Aria with a serious expression .

She rushed out of the door and went downstairs . The moment she arrived at the garden , she noticed Helios's car right in front of the door .

' ...He's here ! ' thought Aria a bit nervous and went to the car .

" Morning ! " said Aria when she opened the door .

" Morning ! " said Helios with a surprised expression when she saw her sportive outfit .

Aria wore a white hoodie and loose black pantaloons with white trainers .

" Why are you looking at me like that ?! " said Aria when she noticed him staring at her .

" I don't remember telling you that we would be going to the gym today .  " said Helios .

" This is the way I usually dress when I am not at work . Today , I figured that I would be learning some things that , based on your personality will shock me for sure so.....in order to not feel worried , I decided to wear comfortably . "  said Aria . 

" I see ! The typical clothes a girl like you would wear .  " said Helios with half a smile .

" The typical clothes a girl like me would wear ?! What do you mean ?! " asked Aria .

" These clothes have the phrase ' I don't need a man ' written all over them . " said Helios .

" Well , it';s indeed true that I don't need a man for the time being . I gotta enjoy my single life for a bit more .  " said Aria with a relaxed expression and wore sunglasses too .

' What was I even hoping to hear from a girl like her ?! ' thought Helios with a stand-up smile and started the car .

They were so focused on their chat that they didn't notice Kejt looking at them from the window .

' Hmmm..... ' thought Kejt looking at the two of them with a doubtful expression as they left .

He drove the car and stopped when Helios saw the traffic light was red .

" Where are we going ? " asked Aria .

" You will see it soon . " said Helios .

' Tsk ! Still not telling me ! ' thought Aria but still didn't let it annoy her .

helios found it weird how Aria was calm and had a smile on her face .

" You seem happy today . " said Helios a bit curious .

" I am happy indeed ! Mom's nerves have calmed down and I finally am free from house chores . " said Aria .

" No man would take a girl who hates house chores as his wife . " said Helios with a teasing smirk .

" Very funny ! I will get a helper to help with the house chores . In our house back in Albania we always took a cleaner at least two times a month . " said Aria .

" Wow ! That's unexpected . You are a wealthy lady . " said Helios .

" If I was a wealthy lady , I wouldn't work for you boss . You can be sure about that ! " said Aria with a serious smiling expression .

" Hmmmmm......it does make sense . Still , no offense but...how could you be able to hire a cleaner when you don't have enough money ? " said Helios .

" In Albania , it's not that expensive to hire a cleaner twice a month or three times a month . " said Aria .

" Why did you decide to leave then ? " asked Helios .

" Good country to live in but I was looking for something more . Since my mom and I are inseparable , my family came along with me abroad . " said Aria .

" Your mom is quite strict ! " said Helios .

" She is a true angel if you don't anger her . She would do everything for me and I would do everything for her .  " said Aria .

" Are you really that close ? " asked Helios surprised he heard her .

" Yeah ! We are really close with each other . I have also entrusted my mother with y marriage in the future . " said Aria looking at her phone .

" You entrusted her with your marriage ?! " asked Helios shocked to the point that he even took his glasses off .

" I am too lazy to force my brain and try to figure out what guys think . My mom is better than me in this aspect . I shall leave it to her . If she approves , then I will get ahead with the marriage . If she doesn't then I won't even consider it again . " said Aria .

' It seems like that madam Kejt is really something . To be able to hold such control on this restless little tigress.......Hmmmmmmm......It seems like it's better to get on the madam's good side before getting on the lady's good side . ' thought Helios with a smirk as he looked at Aria how was focused on her phone .

' Who wouldn't want their daughter to fall for someone as perfect as I ?! ' thought Helios with a smirk .

When the car started again , Aria closed the phone and started looking at the window . She noticed that the road seemed a bit familiar , as if she had passed through it before . After two minutes , Aria noticed Helios's luxurious villa at the end of the road .

" This......is ?... " said Aria confused .

" One of the main bases is located in my villa .  " said Helios .

' Bases ?!.....What is this guy up too ? ' thought Aria looking at the villa with a doubtful expression .

The moment they arrived at the front door , Helios and Aria got out of the car then entered the villa .

" The other members will be here soon . In the meantime , I will show you the base . " said Helios .

Aria nodded her head and followed Helios quietly from behind . Helios opened a door under the stairs of the first floor and the two of them went down the dark stairs . A giant door made of metal shows at the end of the stairs , leaving Aria surprised .

Helios looked at the scanner the door had and waited until the computer verified his iris .

" Lord Helios ! Welcome ! " said the automatic system .

' Lord ?! Really ?!....This guy is such a show-off in every situation possible . ' thought Aria with a neutral expression .

The door in front of them opened and Helios entered in . He turned his head towards Aria and noticed that she was still looking at the door with a doubtful expression .

" Aren't you coming in ? " asked Helios .

' This door.......I am feeling uneasy and a huge pressure is placed on my shoulders . I felt the same way before I entered the meeting with the queen and the ministers . The feeling of heading towards a cage that will imprison me and never allow me to leave .  If I go inside , if I take this step........there's definitely no turning back . Should I go inside ?! Is it worth risking so much for something I don't even know well ?!.......No ! I am sick of hearing my parents arguing all day over our financial issues , I am sick of not being able to fulfill my little brother's needs , I am sick of not being able to help Ace to shine more than he already is.....Whatever ! I will not back down for anything ! I choose this ! Even if it's dangerous , even if I have to tire myself out I will do it . I will not let such a chance slip through my fingers . ' thought Aria with a serious expression .

" I definitely am ! " said Aria with a smile .
