POSSESSIVE LOVE BY POWERFUL BILLIONAIRE CEO - Chapter 227 - Mend My Broken Heart

” Still , mr Helios ! As a father and a man , I find it very hard to believe that you would come here only for the project . ” said Karl looking at him with a fierce look .

” Dear ! ” said Kejt , pulling her husband’s shirt as he looked at Helios with an angry expression .

Helios looked at the balcony and found it troublesome that Aria and Florence were taking so much time to finish their talk .

” I need to use the toilet for a bit . ” said Helios and got up .

When Kejt entered , she looked at all the rooms and even the kitchen and toilet .

” I will show you the way .” asked Kejt in a polite tone and was about to get up .

” No need madam ! I know where it is ! ” said Helios with a polite smile .

” Ou…….Okay then ! “said Kejt surprised and helios got up then went to the bathroom .

The bathroom was near the balcony and he was curious to know what was taking Florence and Aria so long . In reality, just eight minutes had passed but to Helios, it felt like more than half an hour . He decided to go to the bathroom to see what they were up to .

‘ Is that bastard thinking of something weird ?!…..If he is , I will kick his ass and throw him from the balcony , that way he won’t disturb the little tigress and he won’t start working for my grandmother ! Kill two birds with a stone !……That evil aunt of mine is already enough of a headache . I don’t need other headaches ! ‘ thought Helios with a serious expression .

In the meantime at the balcony , Aria and Florence were looking at the dark sky filled with shiny stars . They would often peek at each other and at the same time they were a bit reluctant to talk .

” There are a lot of stars in the sky , it seems like it will be a good day tomorrow ! ” said Florence with a smile .

The petal roses , the candles, and the other decorations that Florence prepared caught Aria’s eyes from up the balcony .

‘ He has put so much effort into all this . I feel so bad that I have to say no……..I don’t have the courage to say no !…..He is an extremely good guy and I like him a lot but not to the point to be with him in a romantic way……What should I do ?!……. ‘ thought Aria with a sad and troubled expression .

” What’s wrong ?! ” asked Florence when he saw Aria’s face sad .

” It’s just……Florence I………. ” said Aria with a forced tone .

” Shhhh !!!…… Listen to me first ! ” said Florence with a smile as he placed his finger on Aria’s lips .

” Aria , I like you ! No, I love you ! From the first moment we met, I thought you were interesting . Spending time with you has been fun . I haven’t had fun in a while due to my job . Don’t take me wrong , I love my job and taking care of people but I don’t really have any real fun . ” said Florence with a smile .

” I know ! That’s what makes you shine so bright and be so amazing . ” said Aria with a warm smile .

” Anyway……..Mmmmmm…… You are smart , cute , kind , generous . I am extremely lucky to have met you . To have fallen for you………..I…I wish to be with you . ” said Florence .

” ……….Florence , I…. ” said Aria with difficulty . She felt like she was suffocating right now .

” Also……..I have another confession to make ! ” said Florence as he took a deep breath .

” I……..The day we got drunk……..i……kissed you in a passionate way . I…my feelings took over my reason and I was a bit drunk too since I found the courage to kiss you…the point is , I kissed you without your permission and I am extremely sorry for what happened . Please believe me when I tell you that I love you with all my heart . Please be my girlfriend Aria !…….No ! Please be my wife ! ” said Florence and bowed his head in front of her .

‘ He…He did what ?!…We kissed ?!…Damn ! I don’t remember anything ! ‘ thought Aria with a troubled expression .

She was a bit mad that he had kissed her without his permission but at the same time she felt a bit relieved because she believed that she had repaid his affection towards her .

‘ I will never owe anyone anything in my life , the same goes for feelings . His love , his affection……….I would like to believe that it is repaid just like in fairytales…He was sincere enough to admit his mistake . If it was another guy , he would act as if he did nothing . ‘ thought Aria with a smile .

” Aria………Are you angry ?! ” said Florence with a reluctant tone thinking whether it was good to ask her or not .

” I am not ! ” said Aria with a smile then took his hand and looked right at his eyes .

” Thank you for this beautiful surprise and for all the other things that you have done to me . I like you too Florence but……..like and love aren’t the same . I like you…..only as a friend . ” said Aria with a serious expression .

” Aria….. ” said Florence then Aria held his hands tighter .

” Please listen to me ! ” said Aria and he nodded his head .

” You are one of the few friends that are kind to me . Although I may be a cheerful girl , I must confess that…….I don’t have a lot of friends . For most of my life, I have been studying and working only . I haven’t been out much and I don’t have any experience with guys . This situation is a bit difficult for me . ” said Aria .

” ……Even if you don’t know anything , we will learn it together step by step . trust me ! I will never let you down ! ” said Florence with a determined tone .

” Dating and love………are a luxury to me ! I don’t have the time to even think of it let alone do it . Even if it were someone else I would still refuse them because I…..don’t have time , nor do I wanna be in a relationship before achieving what I want . you said it yourself , that you know me well………I am sure that you knew what I would say even before you decided to prepare all this . ” said Aria with a smile .n.,𝕠𝑽/𝖾𝓛)𝑈𝓈𝑩(𝔠-𝓸,𝗆

Florence looked right into Aria’s brown eyes and smiled in a defeated way .

‘ ………She is right !……..I am a kind person , a genius surgeon , a noble winner doctor , a wealthy young man who’s handsome too……..with all these , I hoped inside me that maybe the answer might change . I knew it….. that she would refuse me . My heart was prepared for it but……somewhere deep in my heart…….I hoped with all my might that something may change between us . That we could be something more than simple friends . I guess………I didn’t take into consideration the fact that she was too focused on creating a stable career for herself . She has worked so hard , if she were to focus only on love , she would lose her concentration . She is someone who would put her all even in a relationship…..rather than her career , there seems to be another reason behind this . she doesn’t seem worried……..she seems a bit scared every time love is mentioned . ‘ thought Florence with a serious expression .

” Are you sure that…….this is all ?! ” asked Florence .

” ….Yes !….You are successful and don’t understand what I am saying . You were born and raised by rich and kind people then you became even more successful yourself . You didn’t exactly start everything from scratch because your father helped you a lot . I haven’t received any help at all and started from zero to arrive where I am . I can’t let my hard work crumble more than it already has Florence . As fellows of great minds which think alike , you definitely understand the meaning behind my words . ” said Aria with a smile .

Florence realized that there wasn’t any room left for a positive answer . Although he felt his hopes crushing and his heart aching a little , he looked at her in a warm way, and tried to smile despite feeling hurt .

” Hmmmm………….You seem to be more relieved . Is it because I told you that I kissed you and you used that to lessen your conscience after hurting me ?! ” said Florence with a smirk .

Aria understood that he was trying to cheer her up and smiled at him .

” Well , I said that a kiss is something important , at least for me !………I wouldn’t kiss anyone easily , you know ! ” said Aria with a smile .

” You broke my heart and mended only half of it with that kiss……..Since you broke it , you should fix the whole heart , not only half ! ” said Florence with a smirk and looked at Aria’s red cheeks .

” What ?! ” said Aria surprised .

At that time Helios was behind the door of the balcony . He didn’t approach too much because he was afraid that he would be discovered .

‘ Damn ! I can’t hear a damn thing no matter how much I try ! ‘ thought Helios with an annoyed expression .

He looked at the window of the balcony again and saw Aria and Florence hugging each other in a loving way . Helios opened his eyes wide from the surprise and gritted his teeth with anger .
