Secretly The Billionaire Boss
Chapter 229: Stripped âSir?â David stammered, unable to bring himself to raise his head.
Grey smiled softly. âMaria, I want the list of all the executives that had meetings behind my back in my office right now,â he ordered.
âYes boss,â Maria responded in a shaky voice.
There was this usual aura around Grey after he was done with the transition that made her find it hard to relate with him easily as she normally does.
Grey was in front of her, dressed like a trillionaire. There was no way she could treat him the same way.
She had grown to fear and respect him the more.
Grey entered the VIP elevator with Charles, Maria, Jimmy, and Richard.
âHere they are,â Maria rendered and stretched out her notepad.
Grey took it and stretched it over to Charles. âSince you employed them, you will find the best punishment for them. Though, I will be the one to punish David,â he added quickly.
Charles shook his head slightly and took the notepad.
âMaria should set up a meeting between all the executives that had the meetings to remove one of my employees behind my back,â he muttered thickly.
The elevator door opened and everyone walked out. The Hercules office was at the highest part of the building and it comprises the whole floor.
âWhat will you like to have? Should I send an assistant to you?â
âNo, Jimmy will be here to help me out.â
Mariaâs phone rang suddenly. âHello Violet,â she said into the receiver. She went quiet for a moment.
Seriously? Alright, I will speak with the boss and get back to you very soon.â she hung up and looked at Grey. âMiss Caramel is here but she wants to see you.â
Grey looked up at her.â Hasnât she been here earlier?â
âNo sir. I was actually expecting her as you told me to. I donât know why sheâs coming at this time and now, she seems to know you are around. So, she wants to see you,â she explained.
Grey thought about it for a moment. âLet her in but I will be discussing with you inside as well.â
Maria nodded and stepped back to call Violet back.
Grey looked at Richard. âYou and Jimmy will have to excuse us because I donât want Caramel to see you guys with me,â he stated.
The two bowed and walked out of the spacious office.
âShould I leave as well?â Charles asked suddenly.
Grey shook his head. âNo, stay. You are the second in command anyways and you are my friend.â
The words found a nice place in Charles and he smiled as well. Well, he had always loved Grey as a brother and he had swore to protect him forever.
Maria moved closer again and looked at Grey. âIs there anything else to do?â
Grey shook his head briefly. âYou can set up the meeting now. We will have it the moment Iâm done with Caramel,â he informed.
Maria nodded and walked out of the office.
âIs Caramel truly the woman you love?â
Grey regarded Charles for a moment and smiled softly. âShe Is. How did you know?â
âRichard told me about what he did and thinks it might make you upset.â
Grey relaxed in his chair. â Richard has this attitude of going out of the way for something. Iâm keeping him close because heâs brilliant.â
Charles laughed.â That is your way of expressing your gratitude?â He teased Grey laughed. âWhat gratitude? Itâs in the middle. Iâm not pleased by it but Iâm not angry by it,â he insisted.
Charles nodded, with a smiling face.
A soft knock sounded on the door, it opened immediately and Maria stepped inside. âBoss, Miss Caramel is here,â she announced and stepped aside for Caramel to enter.
Grey watched Caramel as she walked nearer. âGood day, Iâm Caramel. Iâm the woman you danced_â
Grey laughed. âI know, you donât have to explain.â
Caramel blushed slightly. âI know you are a businessman and wouldnât even remember such trivial things was why I wanted to explain, âshe expressed.
Grey nodded once. âItâs ok. You can sit,â he gestured towards the chair in front of him. He watched her sit before he proceeded with words. âI already told Maria to expect you. I was shocked when she said you are just coming now.â
Caramel nodded briefly. âYes, I had a personal issue to settle this morning. Iâm sorry for coming late. I hope I havenât missed the offer. I came with my CVs in case you are doubting my potential,â she pulled out a file.
âLet me have it,â Maria said quickly.
Caramel turned to stretch it towards her. Maria collected it but didnât look through it. Instead, she looked up at Grey.
âI donât need to check that before I know your potential. Iâve done some underground research on you and I realized I could actually trust you with my company. So, Iâve decided on the position for you.â
âOh, thank you so much,â Caramel smiled.
Grey observed her for a moment, pulling back with every ounce of his strength from pulling down the mask and kissing Caramel.
âYou will be the new project manager!â He announced.
Caramel eyes went wide with shock.â What? Project manager?â
Grey nodded briefly and looked at Maria. âSee to it. And tell someone to bring me a bottle of wine for me. and Charles.â
Maria stood and bowed slightly. âI will see to it immediately,â she looked at Caramel. âMiss Caramel, letâs go so that I can show you to your assistant.â
Caramel was still shocked.â Just like that?â
Maria nodded. Yes, letâs go, and she led her out of the office.
It didnât take long when the door opened, and Jimmy entered with a bottle of wine and two glasses.
Smith couldnât make a decision. He couldnât even think clearly.
After some minutes that felt like forever, Smith decided he would have to meet with the advertising company and maybe have a talk with them.
The money they decided to return was low and wouldnât even help Smith.
But going was also a disaster because the CEO refused to see him. Smith had to return to the office after some minutes of trying to see the CEO.
