Chapter 155 - Pretending To Be Sick
Klara pushed Ace away and looked at him with a seriously annoyed expression .
" Who told you ?! The teacher ! " said Klara ." It doesn't matter who told me , what matters is that you're too much of a coward to accept that you've lost against me . You feel really angry that you lost to me . Will getting angry at me , make you feel better about yourself ?! " said Ace with a serious tone . Klara looked at him with a nervous expression cause everything that he said was true .
" Don't you think that your action is pretty low , princess ?! " said Ace .
" As you said now...princess ! I am a princess so competing with a pauper like you was just a way I found to kill time . Otherwise, I wouldn't even bother to look at you . " said Klara with a devilish smirk full of authority .
Ace felt angry and bad at the same time .
" I may be a pauper but I have something that you can never buy . " said Ace with a serious expression .
" I am curious to know what that is . " said Klara with a smirk ." I am a genius ! Something that you can never be ! " said Ace with a smirk .
" Heh ?! A genius ?!....So what ?! For paupers like you , being a genius is a blessing but in my case , a genius is just another worker of mine . " said Klara with a devilish laugh .
When she looked at Ace she remained surprised by his expression . He was angry , annoyed , calm and a bit hurt .
" I really pity the people who work for you but more than that I pity the country of Denmark for having such a princess . " said Ace with a calm tone and passed through her then left .
Those words stuck Klara like an arrow . For a prideful girl like her , losing was not something she could tolerate .
' Why do I feel like I made a mistake ?! ' thought Klara while watching Ace walking away .
After half an hour , the bell suddenly rang and Klara went to class . When she opened the door , she saw that Riko was there on the desk behind hers .
" Klara , you came ! Hurry sit cause lesson will start soon . " said Riko . She crossed sight with Ace who was already in the class and sitting on the desk . He looked at her with hate then turned his head towards Riko's direction . Klara went and sat on her seat . Ace looked at her with an angry expression for all the next four hours of lessons .
The same situation continued for the next two days . Wherever she would be in the same place as Ace , he would stare at her with an angry expression .
' I can not stay calm , his gaze full of hate is very unendurable ! I couldn't concentrate on the lessons at all these two days !....Now I understand how he felt when I looked at him in an angry way ! ' thought Klara with a dejected expression .
While Ace and Klara were bickering with each other , in Denmark the time for the trip to meet the mafia boss came . Helios was ready and went to Aria's house to fetch her and her brother so that they could go . He knocked on the door and waited for it to open .
After a few minutes passed Aden opened the door .
" Daada ! " said Aden when he opened the door .
" Good morning Aden ! Why did you open the door ?! Where's that lazy sister of yours ? " said Helios with a smile .
" I...I.....I....am here ! " said Aria with a hoarse voice .
Helios turned his head behind and saw that Aria was covered with a blanket and had a cold compress on her head . Her cheeks were a bit reddish , her skin was whiter , and her eyes were teary.
" Are you alright ? " asked Helios .
" I...am not . I caught the flu and am inconvenient to come with you president....Apshuuuu !!!!! " said Aria and sneezed .
Helios looked at her from head to toe then touched her forehead . Aria stepped back from immediately . When Helios looked at his hand he saw that there was a bit of white powder on his fingers .
' Hmmmm........you seem to be very sick.....or rather pretending to be sick... ' thought Helios with a smirk while looking at his fingers .
" Your forehead was red and you don't look good at all . Mr Bob will be frightened by your ugly look right now.......guess I have no choice but..... " said Helios with a serious expression .
' No choice but to take another person with you...yes.....yes....YES ! Aria you're a genius ! This was an amazing idea ! I kinda regret that I didn't study further acting but ended up in the law department . ' thought Aria who was blowing with happiness inside and eagerly awaiting for Helios to say that he will take another person with him .
" .....but...to call a doctor that can heal you within an hour . I will also personally make sure that you get back your energy . " said Helios with a serious expression .
Aria's smile and body froze within two seconds . She was very excited cause she thought that Helios wouldn't take her with him . When Helios said that he would call a doctor to cure her , her plans crumbled in an instant . All the preparations that she had done beforehand , had gone to waste .
Helios took his phone out and ordered a doctor to come within ten minutes . He took Aden and sat him on the couch .
" President , please don't bother yourself with me . I will get better within three days . " said Aria with a nervous smile .
" No , I cannot stand by and see my hard-working employee in such a state . " said Helios with a gentle tone which gave Aria the chills .
" But...president , mr Bob must be waiting for you . As you can see I am inconvenient to travel so I suggest you take someone else with you . " said Aria with a smile , hoping that he would change his mind .
" Don't worry about that ! We will wait for the doctor to come here and see whether you'll get better or not . If you don't then we will go tomorrow . " said Helios .
' Why is this donkey speaking with such a nice tone ?! With his tone like this , I will really get sick . ' thought Aria with a dejected expression because she thought that he had something in mind and would likely choke her with a ton of files to reorganize .
' No , I cannot handle another five hundred files ! ' thought Aria with a teary expression .
" But.....but.....but.....what would mr Bob say if you don't go today . Your meeting is scheduled for today so you should go . " said Aria with a serious tone .
" True , the meeting is today and he will feel very bad that I didn't go there . He will feel disrespected . If he asks me the reason why I didn't come to the meeting that we had agreed on , I will tell him that my hard-working and precious assistant got sick with the flu . I am not a heartless boss so I am making sure my assistant gets well first then I'll go and meet him . " said Helios with a smile .
' Are you kidding me ?!!!! What kind of boss are you ?! To leave the meeting with a mafia boss just because the assistant is sick ?!!!!! How in the world has he made those millions till now ?! ' thought Aria with a doubtful expression while looking at his calm composure .
When Aria looked at him and another thing came to mind which made skin color go blue .
' Wait a minute....he...when mr Bob asks him the reason why he couldn't meet with him...and he blames me for it....then.......he will come after me and will make my life a living hell ! ' thought Aria with a scared expression .
" NO !!!!!!!!! " said Aria and immediately took the blanket off .
She went into her room and took the luggage she had prepared for her and Aden then put it to the door . After that , she went to the bathroom and washed her face then combed her hard and went in front of Helios . He remained a bit surprised when seeing Aria speeding up in preparing to leave .
" Sorry for making you wait president ! " said Aria with a serious tone .
" Are you alright ? " asked Helios .
" I am ! " said Aria with a nervous expression .
" Are you sure that you don't need the doctor to come and check on you ?! He's on his way , you know . " said Helios with a serious tone .
" No , no , no ! I don't need a doctor to check on me . I will be fine ! I am used to healing naturally . It's better if we hurry and go now . We are already late , we can't let mr Bob wait for long ! " said aria and rushed at the door with Aden .
Helios couldn't help himself from laughing when he saw how fast she was in rushing out of the appartment .
' Hahahaha ! She's so fast !....That little tigress is very scared from mr Bob ! It's funny to see her in this state . ' thought Helios and went out of the appartment .
Aria locked the door after Helios came out then took Aden and went downstair . When the three of them arrived at the entrance , they saw that a car was waiting outside for them .
