"You may say it that way, for now, Your Highness. But I believed that once His Highness put his hand on governing the Underworld, you would still hold greater influence over Her Highness more than the three of them combined."
Aris replied with a casual tone, but it was obvious that it was an attempt to bootlick Aiden.
"Enough of that, Aris. That trick won't work in me... Believe me, when I say I've been there than that. "
Aiden told the obsequious Aris with a smirk pasted on his face.
As someone who had an on-hand experience of working his ass off, job after job before, at the mortal realm it was not an exaggeration in Aiden's part if he would go and claimed that he had seen more than that.
In fact, he, himself already had his own experience doing that same thing before with his bosses.
That was why it was not hard for him to notice Aris lame attempt to bootlick him, no matter how smoothly the other party tried to deliver it.
