Secretly The Billionaire Boss
Chapter 174: Lies Grey saw as his expression changed from the lively one to a darker one. He didnât know what had happened or perhaps he did something wrong Just as he opened his mouth to also, Alex returned.
âYes, so heâs coming with it,â Alex announced excitedly. Caramel got up suddenly.â I think I will be leaving now.â
Grey gathered his brows. âWait, what? We just got here.â Caramel shrugged slightly. âI just remembered what I was supposed to do that I havenât done. So, letâs call it a night.â
Alexâs face fell.â Seriously? I ordered something for you already.â
Caramel smiled faintly.â Letâs hang out some other day Oh, Iâm coming over to your place tomorrow.
Letâs talk by then. Iâm kind of tired already,â she explained, even though that wasnât what happened to her. Well, it wasnât entirely a lie anyways. Caramel really felt tired after the question that Grey asked her Her expectations just failed her. If Grey wouldnât even look towards her and instead seek refuge at the Escorts. Then, what was she expecting? Perhaps that was how he was.
Grey was currently rich to take more escorts. Maybe that was why he was asking âAlright then. No problem,â Alex muttered.
Grey stood up. âI will walk you outside then,â he announced but Caramel didnât wait for him before she headed outside. He looked down at Alex. âI will be back.â Alex nodded once. âAlright. Thankfully, your orders would be here by then.â Grey nodded briefly at him.â Alright, thanks,â and he hurried after Caramel.
just as Caramel entered the car, was when Grey was able to move closer to the car. âHi Caramel. Are you sure everything is alright? Or have l offended you in any way?â
Caramel held a straight face and shook her head.â Not at all. Itâs as I have told you earlier,â she lied.
Grey nodded briefly.â No problem then. I wi call you tomorrow then.â Caramel nodded and drove off.
Grey watched the car for a moment until it was out of sight Grey couldnât stop thinkdng something was wrong with Caramel. It felt like something touched her nerve cell but he couldnât figure it out.
He had the whole night to himself anyways. Initially, he had wanted to be alone until Caramel came.
Though he wouldnâi be lonely as Alex was around maybe Alex would be useful and his coming to Atomic Liquors wonât be in vain.
He walked back inside and saw that the orders had arrived already. He smiled and sat in front of Alex âHow are you doing?â Alex inquired again as he sipped the champagne Grey took a bottle of champagne and poured himself some. âIâm fine. Though, I planned on coming to the gym tomorrow. I and Caramel.â
âI thought you were going to come today.â Grey sighed. âitâs just as you have said. Sometimes the workload would be too much. But I would always schedule it starting from next week Iâm also thinking of getting some muscle builder device.â
âSeriously?â Alex laughed.â You really want to take this very seriously.â
Grey nodded, tiredly.â I need to find myself,â and he laughed. Though, somehow, it wasnât a lie. Grey was totally out of shape and he wanted to train himself to be back, while also finding a way to be back as the Hercules for all to see.
âSo, do you come here every day?â Alex nodded quickly. âI come here every day unless on some occasion. And itâs always very rare. Atomic Liquors is very fun to be.â
Grey nodded at the statement, even though he didnât know Alexâs reason for the statement But since he was currently in Atomic Liquors, he needed to act as though he loved it.
So, he wouldnât be like James that was badmouthing Giovanni in one of his bars. If it wasnât for Grey, he might be dead. âSo, you love Atomic Liquors too?â Alex asked, excitedly. It almost looked like he was drunk but Grey knew that he wasnât. It instead looked like he was trying to be free with Grey, Well, people always have two characters to theinselves. The business or the serious one, and the funny side. âVery much. I love the atmosphere and most especially, I love Giovanni and his son.â Grey saw the tightening in his eyes at the proclamation It was what he must do anyways.
âBut, I really want to ask you something, Can I go ahead?â Alex nodded briefly. âAnything.â âDo you know who Pablo is?â
Alexâs face suddenly enveloped into a dark frown.â Why are you asking?â âWell, I heard he deals with Escorts and Iâm somehow in need of them.â
Alex smiled suddenly.â You donât need to find Pablo before you would arrange an escort for yoursell,â
he informed.
Grey cleared his throat meaningfully,âIâm new in things like this but I seriously need them.â Alex watched him for a moment and suddenly burst Into laughter.â Sincerely?â
Grey pretentiously searched around quickly. âCommon, I donât want anyone to think Iâm incapable, im just new to the system.â
Alex nodded once, as he tried to stop laughing. He failed and burst out laughing again.
Grey relaxed in his chair as he watched him. It felt like he was on the right track. Though, he didnât know how he was supposed to proceed.
âBut u thought you and Caramel are a thing,â he said eventually.
Grey shook his head quickly. âNo, not at all,â he denied quickly. âCaramel doesnât love me and she would never do.â Alex became sober suddenly.â Are you sure about that? You should be sure before you make the statement.â
Grey gathered his brows at him.â Why would you even think that way?â
Alex smiled again, a mischievous one this time. âDonât tell me you are so clueless and you didnât notice the way she looks at you?â
It was Greyâs turn to laugh. He laughed so hard that his crib nearly crack âThatâs not even possible.â
Alex shrugged slightly.â If you say so. But, for the other one, I can help you out.â Grey regarded him for a moment. âSo, I canât see Pablo?â
Alex raised a brow.â You want to see him? I thought you only want to know how the escort works.â
Grey nodded briefly.â Yes but I also want to work with Pablo. If I could be his second-in command, I would be happy.â
Alex was confused. â What do you mean?â
Grey smited softly. âPablo is my mentor. And thereâs nothing greater than working with oneâs mentor. I want to work with Pablo. I can do anything for him, especially being his errand boy but if he makes me the second-in-command, he would never regret it.
