Chapter 36 - Can We Talk ?

n

n

nAria nodded her head while Helios looked at her and kept laughing despite the glares full of anger that Aria gave him .

nQueen Margrethe noticed earlier that Aria was looking at the garden with an expression that clearly showed how much she wanted to touch those roses .

n

" It's a beautiful day ! How about we enjoy lunch outside in the garden ?!

" said the queen .

nHelios noticed Aria's enlightenment when she heard it and with a smirk, he followed them too .

nWhen they were finally out at the garden Aria turned back and saw that Helios was behind her .

n

" Why in the world are you following us ?!

" said Aria suspicions of him .

n

" I was invited too !

" said Helios . The both of them looked at madam Margrethe and she nodded in agreement .

n

" See ?! Too bad you will have to continue being annoyed .

" said Helios in a polite tone .

n

" I don't know what your job is but I am sure it has something to do with stalking and annoying people !

" said Aria .

n

" Oh ! You can't even imagine what job I have with that little brain of yours .

" said Helios blinking an eye and smiling charming way .

n

" Don't show me that expression .

" said Aria .

n

" Why ?! Are you charmed ?!

" said Helios full of self confidence .

n

" No ! It makes me lose my appetite !

" said Aria .

nMadam Margrethe stayed at the table but she could hear everything and smiled when seeing how childish her grandson was .

nAria then went and sat down leaving Helios expressionless .

n

"I can't believe this wild tigress isn't affected by my charming smile at all ! Usually, it is called the death weapon by women but it seem like it doesn't work well .

" whispered Helios to himself then saw Aria's heart-shaped eyes when she looked at the pastries the waiter was bringing .

n

" No ! She isn't normal !

" whispered Helios then sat .

n

" Do you like the pastries Aria ?

" asked madam Margrethe .

n

" Yup ! They're delicious ! They're so soft , so fluffy, so nice looking and they easily melt in the mouth . I love strawberry with caramel with white chocolate the most ! I wish my little brother was here to taste them , he would love them !

" said Aria while eating the other pasty after finishing the first one .

n

" Slow down or you'll choke ! What a glutton !

" said Helios .

n

"You're voice ruins the cake's taste so please refrain from talking to me till I finish !

" said Aria then put the spoon with cake on her mouth .

n

" Hmph !

" sighted Helios in annoyance then continued to eat .

nAfter finishing the dinner madam Margrethe ordered the waiter to come and bring some tea .

n

" Aria I wanna ask you a question if possible ?

"

n

" Of course madam ! What is it ?

"

n

" I wanna ask why do you hate Helios so much ?

"

n

" I don't like people like him . Annoyingly rude and impolite , full of doubt ! From the first day we meet he was very rude and then on he would keep mentioning that I am a gold digger , scrupulous woman and pretending to be nice .

" said Aria then madam Margrethe glared at her grandson with fierce eyes which made him feel a bit troubled .

n

"He often asked me if I was a spy , why was I approaching him ?! I don't even know you , why would I approach you !!! Plus do you know me , what am I like ?! No , you don't ! I suggest you know the person before you start with your baseless comments !

" said Aria really angry .

nHelios was still a bit doubtful about Aria's purpose but at the same time her words made him feel a bit regretful about the way he acted before .

n' What a blockhead this stupid grandson of mine is ?! He manages lots of companies with an iron fist , deals with royal duties judging well the good person from the bad , takes care of the disobedient servants and inside spies without mercy . How come he cannot understand such an easy to read girl ? ' though madam Margrethe .

nBefore she could speak again a messenger came and whispered something to madam Margrethe .

n

" I have an urgent work to solve and will be back shortly . Please wait for a bit kids and Aria , we will continue this discussion .

" said madam Margrethe and then went ahead accompanied by the messenger .

nAria realized that she was alone with Helios and she didn't like that . She got up and decided to go for a walk around the beautiful garden that surrounded the palace . Helios saw that Aria deliberately left him alone .

n' The mire she behaves like this the more hard it is to understand her ! ' thought Helios , who was never left alone by a girl . They would stick to him like glue and not go back till he pushed them off . He remained at the table for another two minutes then he went after Aria .

nAria had walked a little but Helios still managed to catch up . He stayed behind her and continued to watch her .

n

" This garden is beautiful ! Just like the one in the fairytales my mom used to tell me when I was little ! What a peaceful time it was !

" said Aria while looking at the shiny roses in the garden . She leaned closer to take a better look at them . Their beauty was breath taking . The color was intense and the dew of the morning and afternoon made them shine like precious stones .

nHelios looked at Aria and thought that it was weird how some flowers could make her smile so warmly . Aria found a bench and then sat . She closed her eyes and decoded to rake some good sun rays .

n

" What a beautiful day ! With such a warm sun and magnificent garden surrounding me I feel so relaxed ! It would be great if that blonde donkey didn't show up to ruin my mood ! Why do I always bump into him ?!

" said Aria while sighting in a sad way .

nHelios got angry but still approached her in the end .

n

" It seems like you're enjoying yourself miss Aria !

" said Helios annoyed.

n

" Not you again ! I purposely left to get away from why !! Can you please go ?!

" said Aria pissed . When she heard his voice and opened her eyes , she noticed that he was blocking the sun rays .

nHeliso laughed in a bitter way and then came closer to Aria .

n

" Can we talk for a bit ?

" said Helios .

n

" If you promise me that once we are done talking you won't disturb me anymore then I will talk with you !

" said Aria .

n

" Okay , I promise !

" said Helios with half a smile .

n' She even dares to say that I am bothering her ! I am a prince and a billionaire ! Why would I waste my time to talk with an unreasonable person like her ! I just want to know why the hell she is here ?! ' thought Helios .

nAria got up and the two of them continued the walk together .
