Possessive Love By Powerful Billionaire CEO Chapter 46

While Aria was explaining her suspicions about the reports that she saw and pointed out two important suspects.
" So , you're telling us that maybe the minister of the environment and minister of health have taken part of the budget into their accounts ?! " asked Bekora a bit surprised.
" The kingdom's finance budget is checked personally by the queen before it is approved . I find it hard to believe that the reports as to why they needed the budget , handed be these two ministers were fake . The queen would have noticed it . " said madam Margrethe .
" I am not saying that the queen has done wrong calculations . I just find the fact that these datas in the past eight months have something suspicious . " said Aria and then opened at the page where the statistics of the third month were .
" What do you mean Aria ? " asked madam Margrethe .
" Please look at this ! On April 13th the statistics of the infrastructure's problem were up to 19% damage for the which they needed more budget to fix it . " said Aria and then opened the file at the six month's statistics.
" And ?! " asked Bekora .
" Look at this page too , the sixth month's statistics where another application for more budget was presented to the queen . Only one day before the other day of the past month says that the damage remains the same 19% . Without even a two or one percent improvement . With that much budget and still no improvement at all ....don't you find it strange ?! " asked Aria with a doubtful tone .
Madam Margrethe and Bekora both started to look at it while reflecting on Aria's words .
' I thought that it may be a coincidence that these dates were the same but now that I look at it . I really didn't notice it . ' thought madam Margrethe .

" Let's say that your suspicions are true , still this isn't enough of an evidence to accuse a minister . " said Bekora while looking at Aria .
" Of course it isn't but still it is a fact that can't be ignored . " said Aria .
" Aria , if you believe that the minister of the environment and health have taken part of the budget from themselves then why did you say it out loud at the meeting ? Wouldn't that make them eliminate every trace ? " asked madam Margrethe .
Bekora looked at Aria and was waiting to hear her answer . When Aria was about to talk Helios entered the room .
" Exactly because they will try to destroy every evidence remaining . They will be forced to take action and when they do so it will be easy for us to capture them . " said Helios with a smirk and looked at Aria but she glared at him with the eyes of a killer .
" It seems like you understood what I was thinking , impressive for someone who can't hold a dipper of coffee straight ! " said Aria while remembering her expensive shirt who was now ruined .
" How annoying you are just for a shirt ?! " said Helios .
" I liked that shirt a lot ! " said Aria with an annoyed tone .
" It's impossible to talk with you ! " said Helios and then he sat next to his grandma .
" You !!! Same here ! " said Aria .
" Can you two not quarrel when we are trying to find a solution for this case , please ? " said Bekora . He realized that they were about to fight again .
" Aria , was what Helios said true ? " asked madam Margrethe .
" Yes ! " said Aria then looked at Helios with annoyance.
" That's what I think . During this time the queen should appoint some spies near all the ministers, not only these two . It's good to be cautious ! " said Aria .

" Good , I will inform her ! " said madam Margrethe with a smile .
The ministers had always been loyal and she never thought of the possibility that they may do something like this , leaving the people's needs unfulfilled to fill their own greediness .
' She is really smart ! ' thought madam Margrethe .
" Also I will need the reports of the expenses that the ministers who have requested a budget have handed over . We may find an evidence when looking through them . " said Aria .
" I will take care of that and send you the files . " said madam Margrethe .
" Madam Margrethe , I ...have a question . " said Aria .
" What is it Aria ? " asked madam Margrethe in a warm tone .
" What is an advisor ? I noticed that the ministers were looking at me with doubt during the whole meeting . " asked Aria confused .
Helios and Bekora started to laugh when hearing this . Bekora laughed a little while Helios didn't hold back at all .
" I really wonder how is it possible that you have a high IQ when you don't even know what an advisor in a meeting of this kind is . " said Helios when laughing .
" I don't remember applying to study about this . I major in law and not in professions enciclopedia ! " said Aria with a non caring tone .
" Leave those two ! An advisor is someone who is like a lawyer . " said madam Margrethe with a warn tone to Aria then she glared at both Helios and Bekora .
" Oh I get it ! Thank for explaining it to me madam Margrethe . " said Aria with a smile .
Madam Margrethe went ahead to the study room accompanied by the butler while Aria , Bekora and Helios were walking at the corridor .
" Aria , your brother wrote a message to me since you weren't responding to his calls . He said that he will block the computers again if you don't call him and also that your mom will kill you . " said Bekora and then handed his phone to Aria to show her the message .
When Aria read it she felt a chill behind her back . Just the thought of how angry her mom was made her face pale .
" So you're still a mama's girl ?! Aren't you a bit too big for that ?! " asked Helios with a laugh .
" None of your business ! " said Aria . Bekora was in the middle of them when the three of them were walking .
' I really feel uncomfortable being between these two . It feels like a bomb will explode anytime ! ' said Bekora a bit tensioned .
" Since you don't deny it then it is true ! " said Helios .
" I won't waste time talking to you ! Bekora can you please take me to see Mana , I am really worried ! " said Aria .
" We are heading there now ! " said Bekora .
Now that the job had finished he wanted to go as fast as he could and check on Mana . When Aria told him he wanted to there immediately but he couldn't just leave grandma Margrethe alone to deal with those annoying ministers .
" What happened to Mana ? " whispered Helios to Bekora .
" Aria told me that she was being kidnapped by two strange men who were about to take her away . She saw them and tried to stop them . " said Bekora .
" What ?! Is it true ? " asked Helios surprised .
" That's what Aria told me . We will learn more from Mana when we meet her . " said Bekora and the three of them hurried to go to see Mana .

Joshua Hall is an intelligent and promising college sophomore. But when he accidentally witnesses Sara Wilder, a new and quirky acquaintance, receive an eldritch mark of possibility from her mother, everything changes. Josh can now see marks, eldritch symbols of power brought from another plane of existence that empower the weak and the futureless, that are invisible to most. But that's not the only thing that he's seeing, as strange dreams haunt Josh's sleep and threaten to destroy his sanity. With his mind and body struggling to handle the impossible things he can now perceive, Josh has to decide: accept a mark himself, or attempt to forget everything.

Expect: -Slow build storytelling -Character details -Foreshadowing -Dialogue driven narrative -Dynamic action scenes -Some mild graphic descriptions of injury -Sexuality is a factor -No explicit content (at least not directly) -Mild body horror -Light cosmic horror Reviews and critique are highly encouraged. I am a civil and fair responder, don't be afraid to initiate a conversation.
