Chapter 216 - Life And Death Situation
" What a waste of talent ! Others can only envy to have what you have ! " said professor Benjamin .
" I never thought that I had something that others could envy me for ! In the end , I am the poorest student at our school . The only thing that I had more than them and that helped me get through that tough period , was being selected as the student whom you would teach personally . I felt so proud of myself at that time.....Being your student was my salvation . I will never forget your kindness professor ! Never ! Although...I must admit that I don't know why you choose me , a messy student , in the first place...among all those rich and clever students...... " said Aria with a grateful smile .
She hated to say so but she couldn't deny her condition at all . When she first went to France , her situation was far worse than normal students . All the other students in her university were well dressed in expensive clothes while Aria had simple clothes . Whenever she had some money she would buy something nice for herself . Aria worked hard and made sure to send the money she received to her family so that they could have an income for their daily expenses .
" You were unique and that's the main reason why I choose you to be my student among all those rich and clever students but you........The uniqueness that you have is something that you have gained thanks to the hardships that life has given you . What you have cannot be bought with money or immense wisdom . Your only problem is that you are a bit too naive and always try to look at the bright sight of the situation , forgetting that the world is cruel but at the same time you keep your guard up against all the people that may hurt you . You can't balance these two things well and that's your problem . " said professor Benjamin .
" I understand ! I will try to fix this . " said Aria .
" If you create a balance between these two , you will definitely be successful in life . Since , I first saw you I remembered myself when I was your age . Even though you disappointed me with your statement just now , I will still believe in you . " said professor Benjamin .
' I will continue to watch you.....because I am very curious to know......whether you will be able to become the next queen of Denmark or not......Hehe....that would be quite interesting . Looking at things right now , an interesting game has started . ' thought professor Benjamin with a smirk while thinking of Helios's expression when he threatened him .
" I won't insist on you coming back to school anymore . Seeing how determined you are......it's impossible to change your mind . I will continue to watch over you and help you just like before . I know your burning desire to make great achievements and I know you won't let me down . " said professor Benjamin with a smile .
" Professor !....Thank you very much !!!! " said Aria with a smile and her eyes became teary .
Helios listened to them from behind the door and looked at Aden with a serious expression .
' To make a person who has.........once in a lifetime chance to become rich and powerful........give up such a good opportunity......Is family.......really such an important thing ?!.......How come I have never felt such a thing before ?!......When I look back at my childhood the only memory I have are the smiles of my parents when I started to get noticed by the teachers and their back figure after the incident that happened years ago..........When was the last time I hugged my mother ?!........I don't even remember her scent anymore........Haaaa.....little tigress ! What do you do to me ?!..........What are you making me think off ?!.......You mess with you head and thoughts even when you don't mean too...... ' thought Helios with a serious expression and looked at Aden .
" You are quite a lucky little buddy , to have a stupid sister like her . Mine only knows how to add my problems and give me a headache . " said Helios with a laugh while he looked at his smile .
' Now that I think about it......I haven't heard anything about her lately . She seems too quiet and that's very suspicious . What is she doing at Cambridge university ?! ' thought Helios with a doubtful expression .
Meanwhile , at the Cambridge university in England Ace and Klara had taken some books with them and went to a private computer laboratory . The teachers ordered them to prepare for the competition and honor their college .
After arriving at teh library , Ace gave Klara some books in which he had signed some pages and told her to start reading them . When Klara saw the immense amount of books Ace gave her , she remained speechless and spiritless .
' What's with these books ?!.......The only reason why I loved technology was because there were no books that needed to read , you only need to learn the basics and only practice . ' thought Kiara with a dejected expression .
" Hey ! why are you sitting in such a leisurely way while I get to study all these books that you have placed in front of me . That's not fair ! " said Klara with an annoyed expression .
" You should thank me for taking the time to help you . I have noticed in our last battle that you lack some specific knowledge whish comes as a result.....I had already predicted and that you yourself confirmed it just now......because you skipped the books and only learned the basics of beginner books . The fact that you are so good now , must mean that you have practiced a lot . I have to give you some credit on that cause you did well . " said Ace while drinking his water and looking at his phone .
' Hmph ! Bragging just because he won the tech international competition ! I hope you choke badly ! ' thought Klara with an annoyed expression .
He swiped up the messages to look at them then saw Helios's name linked with his mother's name .
' What the hell.....?! ' thought Ace and opened the message then saw that his mother had also received the file that he sent to Helios .
" Cough ! Cough ! " coughed Ace from the sudden shock that he received when he saw the message .
" Serves you right ! " said Klara with a satisfied smile when she saw him coughing .
' Oh no ! What have I done ?! Mom has already read the message ! When the hell did I send this....?! ' thought Ace and remembered the time when he bumped with the other guy a while ago .
'....Damn ! When we bumped into each other , my mother's name must have been added with Helios's name...........She must be enraged now !..... ' thought Ace while wiping his mouth then suddenly an unpleasant thought came to mind .
' ..........She wouldn't do something as stupid as going to Denmark to look for Aria......would she ?! No , she wouldn't do it........Or.....she would do it......I better go and check for myself . The message was sent three hours ago . ' thought Ace with a serious and worried expression .
He grabbed his bag and put back his pass on his neck then rushed to the door .
" Where are you going ?! " asked Klara with a confused expression .
" An important family thing came up and I need to go home right now ! You continue to read the pages that I have marked . " said Ace as he put his bag on his back .
" Is everything alright ?! " asked Klara with a serious expression .
" No ! I need to go and take care of this . Lock the door and give the professor his key back when you finish . Bye ! " said Ace and went out of the door at full speed .
Klara looked at the door with a confused expression as she saw Ace leave .
' Boys.....such difficult creatures to understand ! ' thought Klara and continued to look at the books in front of her .
On his way , Ace saw the professor standing right in front of the hall .
" Ace ?! Aren't you reversing with Klara ?! " asked the professor surprised when he saw Ace on teh hallway .
" Professor ! I urgently need to go home ! " said Ace with a worried expression .
" What's wrong ?! " asked the professor .
" There's a life and death situation at my home and I need to go there immediately . " said Ace with a serious expression .
" Is the situation really that bad ?! " said the professor worried .
" The worst you can possibly imagine ! " said Ace with a serious tone while he thought of his mother's anger mode .
" Okay ! Okay ! You can go !.....I hope everything is solved....I am sorry to hear this.......I hope you get pass-through it at ease . Life goes on.....no matter what , we should live the moment Ace . Remember that !.....Also , make sure to remember the upcoming tech competition between international schools . " said the professor with a nervous smile .
" I got it ! I will go now and will be back soon ! " said Ace and ran at full speed .
" Bye !......Haaaa.....I am sorry for his loss but the school needs him to stay strong so that we can win the competition . " said the professor thinking that he may have lost a relative and walked ahead to his office .
Ace rushed out of the school and immediately headed home to see check on his parents .
' Oh God ! Please make sure that they are still at home . I trust that my father won't move a finger because he doesn't care much but my mom.......she is like a volcano ready for eruption ! ' thought Ace with a worried expression .
After he climbed the stairs , he went to his home and knocked on the door but no one answered . He knocked again but there was no use . No one would answer the door .Ace took out his key and opened the door himself .
" Mom ! Dad ! It's me , Ace ! Are you home ?! " said Ace but no one replied .
He went to their bedroom and saw that their wardrobes were empty . When he saw the house was messy too , he was convinced that they were headed towards Denmark .
' Sister will kill me !......This time , she will definitely kill me ! ' thought Ace with a dejected expression as he looked at the empty room .
