Secretly The Billionaire Boss
Chapter 192: The Deal âWhy didnât you tell me, Avery?â Emma asked softly.
It was breakfast and as usual, the family of Robinson was all together.
Emma had investigated Grey and discovered that he was truly the owner of Victoria Skincare. She didnât believe Grey could make it so fast but she remembered what Avery told her about how close Alfred was to him. But she didnât see it coming.
âThere was no usefulness,â Avery whispered.
âTell you what?â Benjamin raised skeptical brows at Emma. When she didnât talk, he looked over at Avery.â Is something happening that I donât know about?â
Emma looked at Benjamin.â Didnât you know? That Grey is the CEO of Victoria Skincare?â
Benjaminâs eyes went wide in shock.â You mean the fast-rising cream company?â Smith huffed.
âThereâs nothing to be so shocked about. Heâs eventually going down. Do you think heâs skilled in management?â
â He might not but he has people working for him. And heâs currently the supervisor of Protos Pubblicita. You told me that yourself.â She pointed accusing fingers at him. âSeriously?â Lucy looked up from the food he was eating. âWhat did I just hear about Grey? He owns Victoria Skincare?â
Emma nodded briefly.â He does. I mean Victoria is number one on social media. Heâs almost taking over Hattieâs company,â she revealed.
Smith looked over at Lucy quickly.â Donât worry, uncle. I will do all in my power to make sure we lead this time. We will definitely win the award this time, I promised,â he assured.
He thought that Lucy was depressed because LX wasnât making progress. Hattie had been leading them over the years which has been so disappointing. And Smith was going to prove to Lucy that he was capable of doing it. Maybe he would eventually be made the overall head of the company. Lucy was actually shocked at the news. He didnât expect Grey to be making such fast progress. Though, he knew that Grey was a good man. Lucy couldnât stop thinking of the fact that Grey won the lottery and brought such an expensive wristwatch just to please him. The act actually earned his respect. âI always knew he was destined for something great,â Benjamin said suddenly. Einmacraned her neck to look at him, shocked for a moment. âAre you kidding? Heâs kicking against us. Is this the right time to be saying something like that?â
âMom!â Avery called, a bit annoyed.â Stop that.â She stressed, tiredly. Smith scoffed, âIt seeins like someone is regretting a divorce,â
Avery gave him a dirty stare.â Whatâs that supposed to mean?â
Smith smiled softly, âYou and I both know what Iâm talking about.â
Avery felt a stab of annoyance. âYou liad better shut your mouth or I will shut it for you!â She snarled. Lucy looked at Avery.â Avery, watch the way you speak to your brother,â he scolded softly.
Avery rolled her eyes. â Iâm leaving,â she stood up without waiting for replies and walked out of the house.
Emma looked at Smith. âYou will learn how to shut your mouth or I will be the one to shut it for you!â
She warned.
Grey stared down at himself from the mirror. His phone rang suddenly, jerking him out of his reverie. It was Linda.
âGood morning, Boss.â Grey took his briefcase and walked downstairs. He took a while that morning to get set because he visited the gym to see Alex but he couldnât find him. He waited and eventually had to leave after exercising. So, Beatrice left the house before him, and well, he was already late for work.
âGood morning, Linda. Is everything alright?â âNot really. Hattie is here to see you,â she revealed.
Grey pulled to a sudden stop as he was about to open the car door. âWhat? The same Hattie?â âYes, boss, and she wouldnât leave even when I told her that you werenât around. I think you need to come here as fast as you can,â she suggested.
Greyâs head did a flip and a question popped up in his head. âAlright, I will be there as fast as I can. Tell my mother to stay away from her and sheâs not supposed to let Hattie see her.â He warned. A sigh escaped Linda.â Too late, Grey. Theyâve already met and it was the reason why I had to call you,â she informed him.
Greyâs head flew away for a moment.â What the fuck!â He exclaimed softly but he soon became sober.
âDonât worry, I will be there soon.â He finished up and hung up.
He wondered at first why Hattie was in his company. She must have been curious about the recipe.
Well, it was a perfect one. Victoria had the perfect recipe.
But there was no way Hattie wouldnât know where the recipe had come from after meeting Beatrice.
Grey knew he would have to increase the guards around Beatrice and also safeguard the recipe He drove right towards Victoria Skincare, He wondered however what Hattle would be planning at that moment. Would she kidnap Beatrice or threaten her to drop the recipe? Well, none of it would happen because Grey was involved at that moment and he wouldnât let anything bad happen to Beatrice. Grey pulled to a stop at his favorite parking space. Linda walked to him the moment he stepped into the lobby.
âWelcome Boss.â
Grey nodded briefly. âWhere is my mother?â
âIn the warehouse,â she supplied. Grey nodded briefly before he walked into the elevator with Linda.
âDo you have any idea why an opposition company would want to see you?â Linda was still shocked.
Grey shrugged slightly.âOnly one way to find out,â he responded and stepped out of the elevator while Linda followed behind.
They both walked inside the CEOâs office where Hattie sat while two men stood beside her. âWhy are you here,â Grey questioned as he made his way to the seat. Linda walked to stand beside him. Hattie regarded Grey for a moment with eyes that could look into oneâs soul. âI didnât expect to see Victoria rise so fast. And I didnât expect you to meet with Grey for an ambassador job.â Grey siniled softly.â
Would you or Giovanni be my ambassador if I had asked nicely?â Hartie smirked.â You are really an intelligent guy. Thatâs why Iâm here with a deal that would be very favorable to you,â she sat up, regarding Grey for another moment. âSell the recipe to me, I will buy it for any amount that you want.â
Grey couldnât believe his cars.
