Chapter 134 - A Disaster In Cooking
' Half an hour has passed , has she finished peeling the potatoes and fruits ?!....In the cv , Ace had written that she was a real disaster in the kitchen and hated house chores a lot . Surprisingly she mopped the floor perfectly . I am impressed at how scary I am , nice ! ' thought Helios with a devilish smirk . He thought that Aria managed to mop the floor well because she was very afraid of him but the truth was that , even when she did her house chores , the only thing that Aria would do was wash the dishes and mop the floor .
Helios waited for another half an hour then decided to go and take a look at what she was doing . When he entered the kitchen he saw a bowl filled with pasta which was soaking in water . It looked more like soup rather than proper spaghetti . Next to the sup like dish , was a bowl filled with fruits which were cut in a very awkward way .
' Are these supposed to be edible ?! Are you kidding me ?! These fruits look like leftovers ! Even a rock has a much better appearance than these ! I don't wanna even start with....with that sup ! I guess Ace was right when saying that she's a disaster in cooking . I wonder what kind of poor fruit or vegetable is being deformed by her now ?! ' thought Helios and slowly started to approach Aria to see what she was peeling now .
" Why do I end up cutting such big pieces ?! I only want to peel them , why do they end up like this ?! My hand are sore from peeling them ! It's all that blonde donkey's fault for forcing me to cook . He likes to torment people . " said Aria and Helios was behind her hearing everything .
While peeling the potato that she had in her hand , she noticed that it was very similar to the shape of the statue she broke when she met with Helios for the first time .
" I regret so much the fact that I borrowed his statue back then , If I didn't take it , I wouldn't be peeling potatoes , serve coffee , eating food with laxatives , being locked twice , losing my precious newly bought phone , called a gold digger woman , and be blind enough as to sign a work contract with that brat . " said Aria and started to release her anger on the poor potato that she was peeling .
Helios laughed while hearing her express her inner thoughts without giving a care for her surroundings .
" I wonder who's actually the real brat between the two of us , little tigress . Who do you think it is ?! " whispered Helios to her behind her back .
Aria flinched immediately when she heard him . Helios noticed that she had frozen and laughed a little then put his arms around her and his hands on the marble table where Aria was peeling the potatos .
" P...P...President , is there anything you need ?! " asked Aria with a trembling voice and nervous expression .
" So now you're calling me president little tigress . I have noticed that you're way too fearless . I advise you to be less courageous or you'll end up being hurt . " whispered Helios in a sweet tone which made Aria feel even more scared .
' He's speaking in a sweet tone now but I know that he's clearly threatening me . Is he going to make me clean the floor of the whole vila , no please ' thought Aria with a forced smile .
" This is the last time.....I am forgiving you for calling me like that ! If you dare call me like that again , I will punish you in the way you hate most ! " said Helios with a seductive voice .
' He's determined to make it even more difficult for me..... ' thought Aria with a forced smile and a weary expression .
" Understood ! " said Helios with a serious tone .
" Yes !...Please...can you distance yourself a little , president . " said Aria with a serious tone and Helios got away from her .
" Good , now...mind telling me what are these ? " said Helios and pointed at the soup and fruits .
" Ah that ! That's...the spaghetti you requested and fruit salad . " said Aria a bit embarrassed cause she was aware that what she had prepared looked nothing like spaghetti .
" Spaghetti , these ?!! This pasta looks like it has drowned into water . " said Helios while looking at the pasta who was swimming in water .
' It's annoying that I can't disagree with him cause is the truth . That looks nothing like spaghetti . ' thought Aria with a neutral expression .
" Where are the seafood products ?! " asked Helios .
" They are in the van over there . I was about to start cooking them as soon as I finished peeling the potatoes . " said Aria .
When Helios looked at the van , he couldn't believe his eyes . The seafood was still frozen and was put inside the van .
" I was about to put some oil on them and start cooking . " said Aria with a smile .
" Cook them ?! In that state ?! " asked Helios surprised .
" Yes ! " said Aria who wasn't understanding why he looked surprised .
' I can't believe her ! She doesn't know even the basic rules of cooking ! I am a prince and a multimillion company owner yet I know the basic rules of cooking . Aren't girls supposed to be better than boys at cooking ?! ' thought Helios with a shocked expression .
" You're really something ! How can you start to fry the seafood if it hasn't melted yet ?! And even if it melts inside the van , the water will get mixed with the oil and they won't be cooked . " said Helios with a serious tone .
" I...I...didn't know that . " said Aria .
" One of the most important things for a girl is to know how to cook . Do you not know this ?! " said Helios in a serious tone .
" Well , it's not said that every girl must know how to cook . " said Aria .
Helios looked at her with a ' are you serious ' expression .
" I really wonder who's unlucky enough to have to get married with a silly girl like you in the future ?! " asked Helios with a serious yet pitiful tone and Aria snapped .
" A girl like me ?! For your information , I am the best girl a guy could wish to get married with . True , I may not know how to cook now , but I will learn with time . Plus I am an independent girl and won't stay with that guy just because he may be rich , I will stay with him because I love him . Even if he's poor as long as I love him and he loves me back with the utmost care , I will stay beside him for better or worse in both financial and spiritual situations that we may face in the future . I will support him and never leave him . I guess a rich person like you can't understand what I am saying . You can easily get these things with just some money , although you receive affection , that kind of affection remains fake . " said Aria with a seriously angry expression . Helios looked at her with a serious look then Aria talked again .
" Also you don't need to worry too much about my future marriage partner cause I assure you , it can be anyone but you . You're not lucky enough to get married with me ! " said Aria with an angry expression .
Helios noticed that this time she was seriously angry .
" Better that way ! " said Helios with a serious expression yet he felt like something wasn't right within him when she said that .
' What the hell.....?! What was that just now ?! ' thought Helios who didn't understand what he felt for that brief moment .
Aria's eyes looked at the clock and it was already time for her to go and take Aden from the medical clinic . MAna had informed her before hands that she had something important to do and couldn't help her with her brother .
' Mana told me that she had to work with her fashion team about the new collection . I have to hurry or I will be late . This place is far from the medical clinic . I need to hurry or I won't make it in time . ' thought Aria with a worried expression .
" What's wrong ? " asked Helios with a serious expression who noticed that she had a worried expression .
" I need to go and pick up my brother . Mana couldn't help me by picking him up today cause she had work to do . If I don't go now , I won't be able to arrive there in time . " said Aria with a seriously worried expression .
" President , I know I didn't do my job right5 and didn't cook you anything but believe me I really am a disaster when it comes to cooking . I admit that ! You can change the task and ask me something else . Can I please take my leave now ?! Please !!! " said Aria with a concerned tone .
" Okay , you may leave for today ! " said Helios with a smile when seeing how worried she was .
" Ummm.....can you please show me the way to the entrance door....please ? I only know the way from the kitchen to the living room . " said Aria a bit shy .
Helios laughed then accompanied her to the entrance door when seeing her shy expression .
