' You really are determined in your goal and have a clear vision . You have passed everything that I have put in front of you but , as the leader , I need to be a hundred percent sure that I can trust you completely . This will be the last thing that I will test you . If your answer is right , I will tell you everything that you need to know . I will help you achieve your dreams and you will help me defeat my enemy . This is the last test that I will put her through...I really hope you don't let me down ! ' thought Helios with a serious expression .

" What way ?! " said Aria with a curious expression .

" Marrying a rich man , of course . It's the easiest way . " said Helios .

" This again...Haaaaaa.... " said Aria tired .

" I don't mean becoming someone's toy or anything . I am referring to the confession that you got . " said Helios .

" Yeah , you are right ! Florence is a great man and I can see that . Marrying someone like him is a dream for every girl . " said Aria with a smile .

" You are also a girl and had a rare opportunity like this . Why isn't this a dream for you ? " said Helios with a serious expresison .

Aria noticed that he was seriously asking her .

" This is my private life and what decision I make , I don't think I need to tell you . " said Aria .

" I know it is your private but.....it is quite shocking to see someone who is offered such a golden opportunity to have both wealth and a good husband . When I saw him that day , he didn't look like he wanted to be your boyfriend but rather , your husband . I am just trying to understand why you are.....like this . said Helios .

" I see !...Hmmmm.....In fact, it was a good proposal . I admit that I nearly gave in when I saw him like that . He had always been very sweet to me . If he said that he wanted to be my boyfriend , I may have accepted him . " said Aria with a gentle smile .

Helios looked at the plate with an annoyed expression when he heard her words . Just the thought that Aria and Florence would get together bothered him a lot .

" However.....he wanted to marry me and that's why I didn't accept his confession . " said Aria .

Helios remained shocked when he heard her words . It would be normal if the girl refused because the boy only wanted her to be his girlfriend and nothing more but to her , she didn't accept because he proposed marriage to her .

" Why ?! " said Helios with an expression where his shock could be clearly seen .

" Let's just say that I am now the type of cinderella to wait for a prince to save her . I would like it more if the two of us did our journey together on our own horses instead of riding the same horse like him . Marriage symbolizes the end of a girl's freedom and sets a lot of rules for her . I am not a girl that wants to wait at home for her husband to come . I want to assist my husband in his work . Florence is a surgeon and I am nowhere near that field . Plus , for the time being , I have absolutely no intention of getting married . " said Aria with a determined expresison .

' Marirage...is not for me . ' thought Aria with a bit of a sad expresison .

" No intention ?! " said Helios with a chuckle .

" None ! I am young . I will get married one . Why should I bother to cage myself so early ?! " said Aria .

Helios couldn't help but laugh .

" You really are the most interesting girl I have ever met . " said Helios with a smirk as Aria looked at him dumbfounded .

" What's wrong ?! " said Helios when he saw her funny expression .

" I don't know whether this was a compliment or one of your tasteless mocking jokes . " said Aria with a doubtful expression .

" I rarely praise others so you should feel honored . " said Helios .

" I feel so honored to the point of fainting . " said Aria with a noncaring tone and eating her food with pleasure .

" Hahahahahahaha ! " laughed Helios .

' This is what I was looking for ! Nice little tigress ! ' thought Helios .

" I am curious . Why are you praising me ?! That's not like you . " said Aria .

" I am praising you for not choosing the easy road . An idiotic woman would be blinded by such an offer but a stubborn woman like you would be foolish enough to refuse it . " said Helios with a smile .

" You aren't praising me at all , you are trying to pick a fight with me again , are you ?! Weren't we supposed to be in a truce ?! " said Aria .

" We are in a truce . I am just telling the truth . Anyway , you won't regret it since you will be able to win a lot from this decision of yours . It may even make your wish come true . " said Helios with a smirk .

When Aria heard him , she stopped the spoon and placed it on the table then looked at Helios .

" By hearing this , I believe that you haven't invited me here just for lunch have you ?! " said Aria with a serious expression .

" I kinda like that you sometimes understand things quickly . " said Helios .

" Tell me ! Oh , wait ! Let me guess ! It must be something that I won't like . To appease my anger you brought me to this fancy restaurant . Am I right ?! " said Aria .

" Maybe ! " said Helios with a smile and straightened his back then leaned near Aria .

" I have a way to realize your dream but it isn't for free of course . " said Helios .

" What way ?! " said Aria .

Before Helios started talking , his cell phone rang . He took his phone out of his pocket and noticed that the one calling was Ace . When Aria saw Ace's name on the screen her smile froze . Helios could feel a cold feeling coming from Aria and noticed that she had a scary expression .

" Emmmm.....something wrong ? " asked Helios a bit nervous without even understanding why he felt that way .

" President , can I please answer that call ? It would mean a lot to me if you could allow me to answer that call . "said Aria .

" He is your brother . Haven't you talked to him ?! " said Helios .

" That jerk hasn't responded to my messages nor called me back . " said Aria with a threatening smile .

' Ace was right when he said that she can be quite scary when she is angry . ' thought Helios and handed her the phone .

" Thank you president ! I excuse myself in advance for the inconvenience . " said Aria .

" Do you need to talk outside ? " said Helios when he saw how angry she was .

" No need ! I won't raise my voice . " said Aria .

She took the phone and opened the call .

" It seems that we have some trouble . " said Ace .

" Not really ! It seems that you are the only one who's really in trouble . " said Aria with a cold tone .

When Ace looekd at the screen and saw Aria , he remained flinched .

" S...S....S....Sis ?! " said Ace with a trembling smile .

" Hello my dear brother ! Have you missed me ?! " said Aria with a fake smile .

" I....I.....I.....I have m.....m.....missed you . " said Ace .

" How have you been at the royal college ?! " asked Aria .

" I...I.....have been good . " said Ace .

" I am glad you are good . You weren't opening the phone and I thought that something happened to you . " said Aria .

" I.....am sorry to have made you worried sister . " said Ace .

" Oh , I wasn't worried ! The only one who is allowed to beat the crap out of you is me . " said Aria with an angry tone .

Helios looked at her and felt even more nervous . He felt that Aria was quite scary when she beat up the sexy maid at mr Bob's villa but now he was really sure of it .

Ace didn't dare to answer when he saw her so angry .

" Since you have missed me so much , I will especially come and give you a visit . It's been a few months since the two of us last saw each other face to face . " said Aria with a threatening smirk .

" There's no need to ! " said Ace with his head shaking from left to right to show how strong his refusal was .

" No , I will come there and see for myself how my dear brother is doing . " said Aria with a threatening smirk .

" Sister , please spare me ! I didn't send the information on purpose ! I swear it was an accident . " said Ace .

" I know that you aren't that stupid ! but still it was your fault that I had to endure mother's lecture . If I don't vent my anger on you , I won't be able to be in peace . " said Aria glaring at him while he tried to calm her down .
