Secretly The Billionaire Boss by Debbie chocolate

Chapter 231: Truth needed

“If there’s nothing else to say, then I will leave,” Grey stood immediately and walked out of the meeting

room with Charles and Maria.

David felt speechless for a moment, even after the other executive had left.

“I knew it!” One had said. “We should be careful before David puts us into trouble,” they stated before

they all walked out as well.

David didn’t know that Grey could do something so tangible. He had always thought he was useless

and even senseless.

Well, there was nothing to do but accept the deal. Hercules was strict and stubborn with things. He

wouldn’t change his mind no matter how much he pleaded. So, all he was going to do was work harder

so that he wouldn’t have to apologize to Grey.

No matter what, Grey was still not up to his standard and would never be. He wouldn’t stoop so low as

apologizing to someone like Grey.

“Don’t forget the assignment, Maria. And let me know after you’ve decided.”

Maria nodded briefly.” I will get back to you by tomorrow.”

They entered the elevator.

“Are you coming to work tomorrow?”

“No, I have to be somewhere with Charles,” he glanced at Charles. “I’m leaving soon as well. Is

Caramel still around?”

“No, she left already. She will resume fully tomorrow,” Maria responded.

Grey nodded once and stepped out of the elevator. The others followed suit and they entered the

office.” I will be leaving now then. I have no purpose to be around.”

Well, yes but we have an appointment in less than a few minutes with Mr. Lawrence. I thought you

could attend to him. If not, I would have to reschedule the appointment as Miss Caramel isn’t around,”

she explained.

Grey stopped in his tracks as the name rang a bell. “Lawrence? What does he sell?”

“Well, he owns a delivery company. And he wants to feature on our front page,” she revealed.

Grey turned to look at Maria, with eyes that had gone wide and dark.” Lawrence?” He repeated as if he

was tasting the sound of it.

“Do you know him?” Charles demanded when he noticed the expression that Grey was giving.

Grey nodded briefly. “I do know him very well. Lawrence used to be my boss,” he laughed and moved

to sit. “In fact, he denied me my last salary. If I wasn’t a fighter, Lawrence wouldn’t let me have it.

Apparently, he was working with Seth.”

“Oh Seth,” Charles nodded briefly.” So, Lawrence is here for a deal? You should refuse to have

business with him,” he suggested.

Grey thought about it for a moment. Let him in when he comes. I will attend to him,” he decided.

Maria nodded. “Will you like to have something before he comes? Any food or snacks?”

Grey nodded. “You know what I like. You can ask Charles what he wants. Also, Richard and Jimmy as

well.

Maria nodded briefly and looked at Charles.” What would you like to have?”

“Get me something similar to Grey. I will have it like that.”

Maria bowed and eventually walked out of the office.

“Where are you going tomorrow?”

“I need to be in Italy because of the promise I made to Jamal. Though, I’m not sure I would be coming

back to the city that same tomorrow.”

It’s not advisable,” Charles said quickly. “I will find a nice place for you to stay in. Is there anything you

will be needing aside from a room and a car?”

Grey thought for a moment. “Nothing. Well, you can provide anything you feel is necessary. I may need

to have extra meetings with the CEO. Novia said I have shares in there. There are actually some things

that are confusing to me and I must find out,” he announced.

Charles nodded.” Then, perhaps you should be planning on spending two days with them. Never mind,

I have everything in control. We should leave with some men as well,” he suggested.

Grey nodded once. See to it.” He went silent for a moment. “I need to be at my estate today for the

spies I found that day. But are you sure they aren’t dead?” He asked, with sarcasm.

Charles laughed briefly. “Sure, I selected a few men to stay with them. Nothing must happen to them.”

Grey nodded briefly.

Alex regarded the building for a moment before he entered the lobby of Digital World.

He moved towards the secretary who he knew because he was a regular of the company and everyone

knew how close he was to the CEO. Well, everyone knew they were friends.

Though, the moment he entered, words spread about him. Since the discovery of his identity as

Giovanni’s son, paparazzi and bloggers have always been on his tail.

And well, most of Giovanni’s fans have always wanted to have something to do with Alex, seeing that

he was also very handsome. But for people that loved Hercules, he was their enemy.

“Welcome, Mr. Alex,” the secretary greeted with a smiling face.

Alex reciprocated it. “Is Caramel around?”

“Oh no, she went out one hour ago. Would you like to wait for her? I’m sure she will be back very

soon.”

Alex thought for a moment and slowly nodded. “Alright, no problem,” and he walked towards the

elevator alone.

No one followed him since they knew he meant no harm to Caramel because of their closeness.

It didn’t take up to twenty minutes when the door opened and Caramel walked in. “What are you doing.

here, Alex?” The tone she used showed how displeased she was.

Alex side.I came to see you.And I also have some questionsto ask you, Caramel huffed.Then you

should know I'm notinterested, and I will never be.Please do yourself the favor of leaving my

officebefore I call the security guards to bundle youout, she threatened Alex said and stood.I'm here

because of gray caramel.Caramel's ears widened at the names, andshe seemed to soften a bit. Why?

Who is Grey Fox?He demanded in a deep voice.Caramelized twitched slightly.What do you mean,

caramel?You got mad at me for keeping things from you.He shook his head.Don't do the same.I want

the truth.I want you to answer my questions with truthfulness.Caramel's heart made a sudden thud.She

remembered when Gray questioned her about Alex, andeventually he turned out to be Giovanni's

son.Who was Gray Foxx, actually?
