Chapter 152 - Associated with a mafia gang ?!!!

" Are you sincerely trying to help me ?! " asked Helios who couldn't believe the kind behavior she had today .

" You helped me by taking care of my little brother , now it's normal for me to repay your kindness . " said Aria with a smile and started to eat the cake .

" Ummmm...this cake is so delicious ! " said Aria who was wholeheartedly enjoying the chocolate fondue cake .

Helios looked at her with a smile and decided to try the cake she had bought him . While they were eating , Alan came inside in a hurry .

" Hey Helios , here's the..... " said Alan and remained startled when he saw Helios eating cake .

" Leave then on the table behind me . " said Helios and continued to eat the cake . 

" Are you really eating a cake ?! You ?! " asked Alan startled .

" What's so surprising about that ?! " said Helios .

" Oh come on bro ! We all know that you don't like cakes . You only eat them ten times in a year . " said Alan with a nonbelieving smile .

" Good morning Alan !....Is it true , that he doesn't like cakes ?! " said Aria surprised .

" Morning Aria !....Of course , I am ! I have never seen him eat cakes or sweet things if it's not a family or national feast day . " said Alan while looking at Helios .

" Can I eat it ?! " said Helios with a serious expression .

" It's not that you can't eat it , it's just that..... " said Alan but Helios interrupted him .

" Have you gotten the statistics file ? " said Helios and Aria looked at Alan .

" Sure , I have ! Here ! " said Alan and handed over the file to him .

Helios started to read it then looked at Aria .

" Take a look at this ! " said Helios and gave the file to Aria .

" No , I can't . I don't understand economic statistics at all . " said Aria in a troubled tone .

" If you don't you'll learn ! Plus this is an easy one ." said Helios with a serious tone .

Aria looked at the file and remained surprised when seeing those statistics . The product was highly purchased in the market but suddenly the sales had gone down with dramatic speed .

" This....is weird ! Are you sure that these statistics are alright ?! " asked Aria with doubt when looking at the file .

" Of course ! I , especially took care of it . " said Alan . 

" Wait....aren't you an assistant ?! " asked Aria .

" I am an assistant but I also am in charge of the economic statistics of the companies under the Castejo name . " said Alan with a proud tone .

" Wow ! " said Aria .

Alan and Helios smiled at each other and looked at Aria .

" Since my bro , the boss , has said that you're part of the team , you need to learn everything about the other members . " said Alan with a smile .

" We will hold a little party after this problem is solved and discuss everything there ." said Helios and looked at Aria who wasn't able to hold herself back from smiling .

Alan's phone rang and he decided to go out to talk .

" Why don't you answer your phone here ?! " asked Helios .

" Bro , I have my private life too , you know ! " said Alan with a smirk .

" Well.....you look at that ! The interrogation of your private life will start after I have taken care of this matter ." said Helios with a smirk and Alan smiled then went out to answer his call .

Aria looked at them and laughed a little .

" You seem to be enjoying the situation . " said Helios with a smirk .

" The way you talk to your employees it's friendly and informal . You're the CEO of a big corporation and usually, you're a serious person . " said Aria with a smile .

" Apart from being my employees , they are my team and my best friends , that's why they get special treatment from me . " said Helios with a smile .

" That's surprising ! " said Aria and continued to eat .

Aria's expression changed , she looked as if she was immersed in her thoughts . Helios noticed it immediately and showed a smirk .

" Aren't you also receiving special treatment ?! " said Helios , looking at her .

" Special treatment ?! Me ?! I would rather call this a revenge treatment rather than a special treatment ! " said Aria forcing herself to smile .

" Oh believe me ! You're receiving special treatment . If you were to undergo my normal revenge treatment , you would be able to be here . " said Helios with a devilish smirk which gave Aria the chills .

The door opened and Alan entered . When he entered , Aria was able to shake off the unpleasant chill , she was feeling .

" Finished the call ?! " said Helios with a smirk .

" Yeah ! And I received another one right after that . Mr Bob from the farm called and he wants you to come and discuss the matter with you since . " said Alan .

" Mr Bob ! Can't you send other people from the human resources team ?! " said Helios a bit troubled .

" No , he said that he will shoot them as soon as he sees them come in his territory . He wants to talk only with you . " said Alan and Aria kept listening to them with a startled expression .

" Mr Bob's not wrong for wanting to talk with me personally about this problem . After all , we have a lot of cunning people surrounding us . " said Helios with a troubled tone .

" Cunning people ?! " asked Aria .

" Yeah , cunning people and spies ! " said Alan .

" Call mr Bob and tell him that we'll go visit him two days later . " said Helios .

" We ?! Are we going together ?! " asked Alan .

" No ! " said Helios and looked at Aria .

" I'll go with you ?! " asked Aria surprised and pointed at herself .

" Yes ! Two days later ! Pack your things and get ready ! " said Helios .

" Hey ?! I cannot go with you ! I have my little brother with me and I cannot leave him alone here . " said Aria with a serious tone .

" When I said ' pack your things ' I included him too . " said Helios with a serious tone .

" What ?! " asked Aria with a serious tone .

" You will take him with you and we will stay at mr Bob's farm for a week . " said Helios .

" Helios , are you sure you want to go ?! You know that he will ask you to help him with some of his work , don't you ?! " said Alan with an uncomfortable expression .

" He's just like my grandfather , his best friend , you know that we have tight family ties . Although he has bought a farm and works there now , you know that he just does that as a hobby . In reality, he owns a lot of money , people respect , obey him, and even fear him . On of the biggest gangs behind me , is his property . " said Helios troubled .

" I know ! It would be a huge loss if we don't have him on our side . " said Alan with a serious expression .

" Ummmmm...can one of you please explain to me , what's the actual problem ?! And...what's the product that has caused such losses ?! " said Aria with a curious expression .

" Mr Bob , is one of my grandfather's best friends , he's a very wealthy...mafia gang leader . " said Helios and looked at Aria's shocked expression .

" You're associated with a mafia gang ?!!!!!!!! And with their leader out of all people ?!! " said Aria shocked cause she was a law person .

Law was the worst enemy for mafia leaders and at the same time it's the best support , if the mafia managed to find corrupted people .

" You really didn't check anything about my reputation on the internet , did you ?! " said Helios a bit surprised .

" Can you not brag so much ?!....There's a much more important issue and that's the fact that you're friends with a mafia leader ?!! " said Aria worried .

" You should have known that we aren't ordinary people . " said Helios .

" Yeah ! I knew you were rich but I didn't know that you were also complicated !.....What if a deal doesn't go the way both parts want ?!.....What if they suddenly decide to break ties with you ?!....I will be taking care of the law issues between you two.....Will I end up in prison ?! Will they bother my family ?! " said Aria with a serious and worried tone .

" You're exaggerating a bit Aria . " said Alan , forcing himself to smile .

" Do you intentionally forget who I am or you do pretend to do so ?! " asked Helios with a serious smirk on his face .

' I can sense that he has a powerful aura which can make others tremble with just a glance when he's angry . I....don't believe that he's simply a rich person....I need to ask Ace to do a research on him , so that I can know what future troubles await for me . ' thought Aria looking at Helios straight in his eyes .

' She seems scared and worried at the same time . The things we have to face in the future will be very complicated and difficult....She's a good ally....but I need her to be perfect in each aspect . She's too naive and stubborn . One mistake may cost her more than she thinks.....I'll personally make sure to teach you , my little tigress . If I cultivate you the right way then you'll become a great shoulder in which I can always count on . ' thought Helios with a smirk while looking at her troubled cute expression .
