" Helos slp sushin ..mi chec (Helios stop squishing my cheeks ! )

" said Mana with her cheeks being squished by Helios .

n

" This is because you insist on going out without bodyguards and as a result, you leave yourself open to danger !

" said Helios really angry .

n

" Helos yo menie ! Slop il ! ( Helios you meanie ! Stop it ! )

" said Mana since her cheeks started to hurt .

n

" Since you are sick I will let you off for now .

" said Helios with a serious expression then let go of Mana's cheeks which had become red like tomatoes .

n

" How annoying that I really can't say anything back to that .

" said Mana with an annoyed tone .

n

" Okay , now let's focus on the serious stuff !

" said Bekora .

n

" Mana , do you know who those people are ? Maybe a rival of yours or competitor ?

" said Bekora .

n

" I don't know ! I arrived two days before and decided to stay at the hotel to take a break . I have been working nonstop for the next collection . I need to finish it before December ! I manage to finish most of the work so I thought about taking a break after I cam and decided to rest at the hotel . During the day when I went for a walk, I felt that someone was following me but I didn't pay it too much attention and thought , maybe it's just my illusion . When I went to the room I started to watch TV then the waiter came and served my dinner with a bottle of wine . After drinking the wine my head started to hurt and I fell asleep . Before closing my eyes I saw two black men who entered the room and heard them talking about a file . I immediately understood that it was about the file of the winter designs I had been working on .

" said Mana with a calm face .

n

" You mean they were searching for the file that contained the new collection that your company will release in December ?

" asked Bekora and Mana nodded her head .

n

" It's definitely the attack from a rival company .

" said Helios with a serious expression .

n

" When I woke up this morning I saw that the room was a mess . Those guys were still trying to find the file . They didn't know that I had hidden the fille inside a secret pocket in my suitcase . After feeling a bit better I decided to go against them and try to escape but it was useless . They caught me and said...since they had to go through all this trouble to find a single file why not have some fun with her before leaving...and then they drugged me with.....that kind of drug . They started to undo their belt when the drug started to take effect but....someone called them and one of them said that their boss had ordered them to leave immediately , they stopped then hurried to take me out of the room , they said they would continue their fun later . For a minute I thought I was done for....Luckily Aria saw me and saved me otherwise.... I don't know what could have happened if she would have ignored me !

" said Mana with tears in her eyes .

nShe always kept her cool and serious character when working , leaving no room for fear or uneasiness to be shown . The situation now had frightened her to the core . Helios and Bekora couldn't help but feel worried and furious at the same time when hearing Mana tell them what had happened .

n

" From what you told me I guess it will be easy to find the one behind this . Wait for my news !

" said Helios with a killer aura .

n

" Helios , I already said , leave this matter to me. , please !

" said Bekora with a fierce and imposing look .

n' I can feel Bekora's anger from here . Guess leaving it to him is equal to handle it myself . He is merciless enough . ' thought Helios with a devilish smirk .

n

" But at least let me help you with the investigation otherwise it would feel too boring for me to just watch .

" said Helios and Bekora nodded with a smirk .

n' These two are the reincarnation of the devil itself . Just their aura is enough to make others feel scared . ' thought Mana a bit nervous about what they would do .

nHelios looked at Mana for a moment then went near her and gave her a hug .

n

" If I wouldn't be forced to keep a low profile I would let everyone know that you're my cousin Mana. Once they knew no one would dare to be rude to you . I'm sorry !

" said Helios .

n

" It's alright big brother , you don't have to blame yourself . You don't have it easy eaither , I understand your problems .

" said Mana and then hugged Helios .

n

" Promise me that you won't ever go out without bodyguards again ?

" said Helios with a serious tone after letting go of Mana .

n

" Okay !

" said Mana pressured by his serious expression .

n' Where did the gentle brother of two five seconds ago go ?! ' thought Mana when she saw how fast Helios changed .

n

" Bekora , I will call Ramolo to start the investigation .

" said Helios and took the phone from the table . When he looked at the phone's screen he remained a bit surprised .

n

" What's wrong Helios ?

" asked Bekora .

n

" That airhead tigress has taken my phone instead of hers . How can she not even recognize her own phone ?!

" said Helios annoyed while Bekora and Mana laughed .

n

" Her phone and yours are the same model and color . I noticed it when the maid gave it to me.

" said Bekora .

n

" What a coincidence !

" said Mana and looked at Bekora then both started to laugh again while Helios continued to stare at them annoyed .

n

" Laugh you two , laugh ! I need my phone to check on the company .

" said Helios .

n

" It's unusual that you take your phone out of your pocket .

" said Bekora a bit suspicious .

n

" Juli kept calling me nonstop ! I couldn't turn it off and couldn't stand the continuous vibration that's why I took it out .

" said Helios .

n

" Oh , Juli the supermodel ! I almost forgot about her .

" said Bekora .

n

" I even told you to drive her away but you ....

" said Helios and looked at Bekora . From his expression Helios could easily tell that he had forgotten all about it .

n

" I did send her away once when I saw her at the company but by taking care of the work and Anna I kinda...forgot her .

" said Bekora with a nervous smile .

n

" Haaaa.....you !

" said Helios .

n

" It's not been much since she left . Also, she most likely hasn't called Ace otherwise she would have come here again , to get her phone . Maybe she is outside, you can go and give her her phone and take yours back .

" said Bekora and Helios then hurried out of the room to find Aria .

n

" Bekora , now that Helios is gone mind telling me what exactly has been going on between you guys and Aria ?

" asked Mana with a smirk .

n

" Look at you , you're sick yet you have the energy to gossip .

" said Bekora with a smirk .

n

" Don't tell me you've become a quiet person ?!

" asked Mana with a sarcastic tone .

n

" I think you may still be under the medicine's effect since you're saying that . There's no way I would stop gossiping !

" said Bekora .

nBoth of them laughed a bit and then Bekora started to tell Mana everything from the beginning .

nWhile those gossipy people were chatting, Helios went to the corridor to look for Aria and get his phone back .
