" Yes.....there were no red ones so I took the blue ones . No.....I mean the red roses were the only ones left....so I took them . " said Aria .
' She really is a terrible liar ! ' thought Helios with a light laugh .
' Oh please , elevator ! Arrive at the top floor fast , this guy is just too scary ! ' thought Aria troubled .
After a few minutes, they arrived at the top floor .
" I will go to work now president , have a nice day ! " said Aria and rushed out of the elevator towards her office .
Helios went out and headed towards his office . When he opened the door he saw that Alan was waiting for him in his office .
" Bro good morning ! " said Alan with a smile .
" Morning ! " said Helios with a grumpy tone .
Alan felt a chill when Helios passed through him and went towards his working table .
" ...Bro , everything alright ?! " asked Alan .
" Nothing ! Prepare the files , we are heading to the meeting with the American ambassadors . " said Helios and glanced at Aria who had a relieved and dreamy expression while looking at the roses , then got up from his seat after taking the documents needed for the meeting .
" Yes ! " said Alan who fastly prepared the files .
" How many files are left to be reorganized ? " asked Helios while glancing at Aria again .
" Thanks to Aria's speed in doing this , there are only seven hundred files left . The archives staff is taking care of reorganizing them . They managed to finish a hundred files yesterday " said Alan .
" I bet the archive staff must be tired , they deserve a break ! Seeing that miss little tigress doesn't have anything better to do , send them to her and tell the staff of the archives to take care of tidying up the place where the files will be placed . " said Helios with a devilish smirk .
' His bad mood is most likely related to Aria . I don't have the heart to tell her that she has to reorganize another six hundred files . ' thought Alan , feeling pity towards Aria .
" Go tell her now , then we can leave for the meeting . " said Helios with a devilish smirk .
' Why must I be the one to deliver such a news to her ?! ' thought Alan and forced himself to nod with a smile .
He went out of Helios office and headed towards Aria's office .
In the meanwhile , Aria was looking at the flowers with a dreamy look .
' Such gorgeous flowers ! Such a beautiful shape ! Such a nice aroma.....I bet it will make a very delicious rose-flavored cake......There are so many roses in this giant bouquet...I will use half of them for a very relaxing bath.....Just the thought makes me feel so happy . Florence was so kind to get me such a nice present . It was a nice morning , if I don't include the meeting with the grumpy president.....Anyway , fortunately I was able to escape from him on time . I wonder why was he so mad ?!...Maybe there was something wrong with work ?! ' thought Aria and looked at the bouquet again with a happy expression .
The door knocked and Alan came in .
' Looking at his expression , that grumpy president must have frightened the poor guy to look pale like this . ' thought Aria when she saw Alan's anxious expression .
" Good morning Alan ! " said Aria with a smile .
" Morning Aria ! What beautiful flowers ! " said Alan .
" Thanks ! They're a gift from a friend of mine I met before coming to work . Don't tell that grumpy president ! I lied to him and told him that I personally bought these roses . " said Aria with a serious look .
" Grumpy president ?! " asked Alan .
" Yeah ! He's been in a very bad mood all since when I saw him at the entrance . To avoid more unnecessary talk with him, I lied saying I bought the flowers . " said Aria .
" Why did you lie ? It's not forbidden to bring roses or flowers in the company ." said Alan .
" I am pretty sure that you're aware of that guy's trusting issues which are quite serious . I am pretty sure that if I told him a friend gave these flowers to me as a gift , he would order people to check if there are any cameras placed inside . " said Aria with a serious tone .
" I agree that he overreacts when it comes to trysting issues but believe me Aria , he is right to act this way . It hasn't been easy for him ." said Alan with a serious tone .
" What do you mean Alan ?! " asked Aria curious .
" I am sorry but this is confidential information . You can ask the president himself . If Helios wishes to share it with you , he will tell you everything . " said Alan with a smile .
" I see...okay . Why did you come Alan ?! said Aria with a smile .
' From what Alan said , that donkey must have been through something...I wonder how serious it was that he still has trust problems . ' thought Aria concerned .
" He ordered me to tell you that there're still six hundred files left to be reorganized . The staff will send the boxes in your office . Now there's an important meeting which I have to attend with the president . Have a good day Aria ! " said Alan and hurried to go out of Aria's office without waiting for her to answer .
' I am sorry Aria but I really am afraid of him giving me extra work . ' thought Alan .
' You.....damn...Blonde Donkey...Bastard.....Jerk ! ' thought Aria super angry .
" Overworking someone just because you enjoy it is illegal ! I really hope that you meeting fails ! " said Aria in a very angry tone .
Helios was looking at her from the window and enjoying her angry expression .
' Hahahaha ! It looks like you didn't enjoy my second task that much ! Don't worry my dear little tigress you'll like the third task a lot more . ' thought Helios with a devilish smirk .
When Alan entered in the office he noticed that Helios's mood was much better than before . He noticed that Helios was looking at Aria who was boiling from anger , and laughing in a wicked way .
' He really enjoys tormenting her ! ' thought Alan with a troubled expression .
" Okay , now that we finished here , we shall go to the meeting . " said Helios with a smile .
' Strangely I feel so much better ! ' thought Helios with a satisfied smile .
Helios and Alan went out of the office and headed towards the meeting while Aria was sulking over the fact that she wouldn't be able to escape the task of reorganizing files .
" Ufffff....because of that donkey , not only do I have to work overtime but I also have to deal with all those files . Alan didn't say that they need to be finished within three days but I know that this is the classic rule that blonde donkey has set on me . " said Aria and looked at the time on the was with a tired expression .
After ten minutes the people from the archive staff came to Aria's office and started to bring the boxes filled with files . The brought ten boxes and the files this time were a bit thicker than the other time . They also brought a list and handed it over to her . Aria thanked them then watched the list and the boxes which had filled her office .
' This place has transformed from a working office to a bookstore . ' thought Aria .
She opened the first box and started to work on it . While surfing the files , taking notes, and reorganizing the information , the hours passed silently . It was already six pm . Aria only worked and didn't take a break at all . Within these nine hours of nonstop working, she managed to finish two hundred and fifty files . Her head started to hurt a little so she decided to take a break .
" I still have three hundred and fifty files to finish . That donkey is indeed very cruel ! Am I the only employee in his company that he gives me all these files to me ?!.....No , I probably am the most unlucky one cause I am forced to stay beside him....I will definitely get all this back at him one day ! " said Aria with a confident tone .
When her eyes looked at the clock , she realized that it was time to take Aden from the medical clinic .
' I have to hurry ! Given the huge amount of work I have to complete , I won't have time to go home....There's no way out , I have to bring Aden here . ' thought Aria and rushed out of the office , took the elevator and went out of the company .
She saw a taxi that was near . Aria took the taxi and went to get Aden from the medical clinic . When she arrived , she saw Florence's car . In the garden, she noticed that Florence was talking with doctor Endre while Aden was playing .
" Aden ! " said Aria and hurried out of the taxi .
" Adadaada, da da ! " said Aden with a smile .
Aria went towards him and hugged him . Florence approached them and smiled .
" Welcome ! Shall we head for the dinner ? " asked Florence with a smile .
" Ermmm...Is it alright if we postpone it ?! " said Aria and Florence looked at her confused .
" Why ?! Do you have any problem ?! " asked Florence .
" If I say that I have to finish reorganizing three hundred and fifty files within three days , would you believe me ?! " said Aria .
" That's crazy ! " said Florence .
" Yes , it is ! That's why , I have to hurry back to the company or my boss will give more work to do . " said Aria with a serious tone .
From her troubled expression , Florence could tell that she was in a very difficult situation .
' That company's boss is likely unreasonable . ' thought Florence .
" See ya Florence ! " said Aria and hurried to the taxi .
When Aria left , Florence went back to doctor Endre .
" What happened to the dinner ? " asked doctor Endre .
" Her boss is unreasonable and gave her a lot of work . Right now , she's heading towards the company and is taking Aden with her . " said Florence disappointed .
Doctor Endre patted his shoulder .
" You will meet again ! Work comes first ! " said doctor Endre with a smile and florence nodded in sign of agreement .
