Chapter 247 - I wished I was born a boy

Aria looked at Helios and felt her heart skipping a beat again . She let go of the contract with doubt and let the pen in her hand down trying to keep calm and not give away the fact that her heart had already skipped a few beats because of Helios .

" I changed my mind ! I will not be signing this . " said Aria .

" Why ?! " said Helios surprised .

" Firstly , get a bit away from me cause you are too close . "  said Aria .

' Remember ! The person in front of you is a playboy . You cannot be affected by his looks . It's not worth it to fall for him . ' thought Aria with a serious expression when being reminded of Mana's words . 

" You don't like me being close to you ? " said Helios looking at Aria with a teasing smirk .

" There's something called , minimal private space . I am sure you have heard of it and will distance yourself a little since you are invading my minimal private space . " said Aria with a serious smile .

" You don't know how rare I try to get to people close on my own . Quite valuable , isn't it ? " said Helios .

" Right now my minimal private space is the only thing that is more valuable to me . " said Aria with a serious smirk .

" Fine !.....I won't tease you anymore . Now , it's time we get serious . " said Helios and smiled with a gentle smile when he saw that despite him getting close to her , she would never allow herself to be tempted .

' I do admit that I quite like her immunity to beauty . If she were to fall for someone easily , that would bring trouble to my whole plan . ' thought Helios with a serious expression .

He took the laptop and handed it over to Aria .

" Since you guessed that I am involved in politics , you better listen carefully to what I am gonna say . If you have a term that you want to add on your own , you are free to do so . " said Helios, and Aria looked at him with a frozen expression .

" Should you be this shocked ?! " said Helios with a  serious face but in reality, he was barely keeping himself from laughing .

" I am starting to get convinced that this contract is a fraud . How would a devil donk.....I mean , a devil-like you be so human to give the other person the freedom to add some terms in a contract that he created ?!.......It's too unbelievably fishy ! " said Aria .

" You really hurt me with your statement . Am I that mean ? " said Helios with an angelic face .

" Hah...Hah ! Are you that mean ?!.......You forced me to work like a robot and reorganize hundreds of files that take at least half a year to finish . You gave me laxatives . You took me and my little brother to a mafia boss's house...What's more....you forced me to milk a cow ?! Is that what a normal person does ?! " said Aria with a face that totally snapped .

" Pfffft ! Hahahahahahahahahahahaha !!!!! True !....I can't forget the time you tried to negotiate with the cow . My stomach will hurt later .  " laughed Helios .

" You are laughing ?!...Sure ! Laugh !.... " said Aria

' Thing of your income Aria , think of your income and don't bother with such an annoying bastard handsome donkey . ' thought Aria with a fake smile while imagining herself punishing Helios on his stomach

" It's hard to keep a serious face with you around . " said Helios with a warm smile .

Aria looked at him surprised cause he rarely smiled sincerely . Usually, he would smile in a devilishly teasing way but he looked rather sincere . As if he felt at peace and relaxed while enjoying the conversation .

" ...oh well.....it was indeed funny . I will take my revenge one day , rest assured . " said Aria who couldn't stay annoyed anymore after seeing his smile and the both of them started to laugh .

" Will you ? I am curious how will you do that . " said Helios with a smirk .

" When I become a millionaire , I will show you . " said Aria .

" How do you intend to become a millionaire when you dropped out of school ? " said Helios who enjoyed her determined spirit about something that was unreachable to normal people .

" Now that I have dropped out of school , the only thing I can do to achieve my goal is by being stuck with you . " said Aria and showed him the contract .

" You have quite the courage to say that you will become a millionaire . " said Helios .

" Please.....You have more than a hundred billion net worth , giving me a few millions won't make you bankrupt . Furthermore , I will be earning them with my own efforts . " said Aria .

" You really wanna join ? " said Helios .

" I do want to join you , even though I have my doubts but still......even if I want to return , I don't think I can go back now , can I ? " said Aria .

" I am glad that you are smart enough to understand that yourself . Also , do you know how to use a gun ? " said Helios with a calm tone .

" Are you planning on turning me into a terrorist ?! " said Aria .

" Pfft ! I am being serious . " said Helios .

" I am not kidding either . " said Aria .

" .....You will need it just in case of danger so that you can protect yourself . " said Helios .

" I see !... " said Aria .

' This job is more dangerous than its worth......that's what a normal person would think in such a situation . I am worried about this but the weirdest thing is that I am not worried about myself nor what I will face . I......feel a bit excited . ' thought Aria with a smile .

" I  can try to learn . " said Aria .

Helios looked at Aria and didn't see even a bit of hesitation in her eyes . He was fascinated by her bravery but also felt a bit uneasy .

" What if I tell you that you cannot quit forever ?! " said Helios .

" What ? " asked Aria confused .

" What if I tell you that you can never break this contract for as long as you live ?!...You cannot share what you see here with anyone , nor your family , nor anyone else . Family is an exception . Marriage is complicated........You wouldn't want to die alone without children or a husband , would you ?! " said Helios with a smirk .

" Would you be my husband then ? " said Aria .

When Helios heard this phrase , he stepped a bit because the thought of tying himself to only one person in his whole life , had never crossed his mind .

" As I thought......... " said Aria with a weird smile and looked at the papers .

" Will you fight to be my wife then ? " said Helios with a teasing tone but he really wanted to know what she would say about this .

" Oh no, sir ! I won't even bother with that . I okay on my own . Even if I remain single due to your childish arrogance , I would never fight to be your wife ." said Aria with a serious tone .

" Why ? " said Helios surprised .

" Because , in marriage , there's need for a deep love between two people , respect , honesty, and loyalty . Betrayal is something that I can never forgive and you tend to do that often so I don't wanna bother myself with some silly games of yours . You have a lot of other girls around you which are prettier and s.e.xier . Girls who suit your taste completely . Would you even have the time to look at me ? " said Aria with a smirk looking right into Helio's eyes .

She was happy that she was able to be calm and not have her heart race around Helios anymore .

' I do have the most beautiful girls around me but.....for a while, my eyes only keep looking at you . You are so blind that you can't even see how much you have affected me without even meaning too...maybe.....this is that charm of yours that never makes me lose interest in you . ' thought Helios with a smile and got up from the chair and looked at her .

" It seems to me that you have quite a bad impression of marriage in your head . Even now , I think you still don't realize the worth of the person standing in front of you .

" .......Do you think that you are worthy for me enough to fight hard for you ?! " said Aria with a serious expression .

" Are you saying that I am not worthy enough for you to fight for me ?! " said Helios .

" I never start games in which I am not sure I can win . " said Aria .

" Heh !.....I never thought you would be so coward . " said Helios with a casual tone .

" That's not being a coward , that's called being smart . " said Aria with a serious tone .

" Fine !........With this knowledge of yours , I am starting to wonder if you are really a girl . No girl would behave like you if she was near me . " said Helios .

" Now that you mention it , I always wished I was born a boy . " said Aria .

That was a huge hit for Helios who looked at her shocked . Aria couldn't help but laugh when seeing his frozen shocked face .
