Secretly The Billionaire Boss
Chapter 246: Kidding?
Charles and Grey got home in the afternoon the next day. Charles pulled up at the garage. While Grey absentmindedly got down and went inside, Charles followed after.
It was work hour and Grey knew that Caramel would be at work. So, he was going to wait.
âBoss, I forgot to tell you something,â Charles said suddenly, dragging Grey out of his thought.
Grey nodded briefly and moved to retrieve a bottle of champagne.
Charles followed after. âMattee gave you something last night but I forgot to tell you about it due to the issue on the ground,â He explained.
Grey nodded briefly and turned to look at him. âWhatâs all this about?â
âMattee sent a jacket, itâs bulletproof and one of its kind,â he explained and pulled out the jacket to show it to Grey. âYou could wear it as a normal jacket and no one would notice it is bulletâproof,â he smiled softly.â This is the best gift youâve ever received.â He complimented.
Grey regarded it for a moment before he moved nearer to check it out. He was shocked that Mattee liked him so much to have gifted him such a rare item.
âNow I see how much Mattee trusts and admires you,â he stated.
Grey nodded once. â Take this inside my room. We will discuss this later. I will probably call you,â he announced.
Charles nodded briefly and walked away.
Grey was still watching him when his phone rang suddenly. It was Jane. Grey was a bit confused. Why was Jane calling him? And that was when he remembered that she was calling him through his line as Hercules.
âGood day sir,â she started.
âYes, is everything alright?â Grey demanded.
âYes, boss but I have something to discuss with you. I mean I received a letter about it,â she hesitated.
â SU received a letter this morning from Spinfluence. Spinfluence is an old company that supplies CCTV cameras to other big companies. So, it says thereâs an order ongoing and they would like to tender it before us. In fact, they are selling the contract to us,â she explained.
Grey nodded once. â So, you want us to buy it?â
âYes, boss but we arenât the last competitor. Thereâs someone else dragging this with us because the order is worth a lot of money. If SU company can receive this order, it would improve our business and can even increase the position of SU on the chart,â she declared.
Grey thought about it for a moment. âI will send Grey to you. You guys should discuss it in person.
Meanwhile, we are buying it,â he announced.
âThatâs cool, boss. I will be waiting.â
Grey hung up and stared down at his phone. Jane was becoming a bit obedient.
âSo, I will see you later. I will visit Alfred tomorrow,â Charles announced suddenly.
Grey looked up at him and nodded briefly. âAlright, bye.â
Grey moved to pour himself a glass of wine. His phone rang again, almost immediately. He sighed and Chapter 246 kidding?
reached for it. It was Linda this time.
âGood day boss.â
âYes, how are you doing, Linda?â
âIâm fine but we have a visitor waiting for you at the office. I told her you werenât around but she insisted on staying. So, I had to call you,â she spoke.
Grey released a sigh. âWho is it? Or just tell the person to come back, Iâm not available to come at this moment,â he declared.
âAlright, I will inform her but itâs Hattie.
â
Grey raised skeptical brows. âHattie? Of Smooth Therapy?â
âYes, boss, she insisted on seeing you today. Sheâs a very stubborn woman.â
Grey nodded once, a smile sticking out of his mouth. âA very stubborn one,â he admitted with a hint of sarcasm that made Linda laugh. â Alright, tell her I will be there soon. I will be on my way now and I will be as fast as I can,â he informed.
Alright boss, I will be waiting,â and the line went off.
Grey doesnât know what Hattie was looking for again after the last encounter. Was she going to try to kidnap someone again or was she going to threaten him this time? He couldnât guess but he knew that Hattie meant trouble.
Or maybe Charles was right and Hattie now knows who he really was.
His heart took on a sudden breath. Grey still wouldnât believe it until he has confirmed it. There was no way Caramel would betray him. She doesnât ask him questions anymore, which means she has stopped being inquisitive around him or maybe she was curious as well as to who Grey really was.
But if that was the case, then it means that Caramel had betrayed him. He didnât even want to think about it because it was difficult. He was still battling with the betrayal from his fatherâs best friend, he just didnât want more.
Grey got dressed in a different attire before he set out to the street.
He arrived at Victoria Skincare soon enough. When he entered the lobby, Linda walked up to him.
âWelcome Boss. Beatrice told me you went out and I didnât want to call you so that you could rest but Hattie was just being stubborn,â she revealed.
Grey smiled as they entered the elevator. âItâs on, I will handle it. Whereâs my mother by the way?â
âIn the production room,â she responded. âItâs all secured, so thereâs nothing to be worried about.â She informed him.
Grey nodded once. â Alright,â and stepped out of the elevator, with Linda.
They entered the office where Hattie sat, waiting for Grey.
âWhy are you here?â Grey demanded immediately.
Hattie scoffed. âIs that how to greet a colleague and elder in this line of business? Well, Iâm here to discuss with you.â
Grey regarded her for a moment before he moved to sit, with Linda beside him.
âWhat is this all about?â
Hattie regarded him for a moment. âCCS is on the way, I want you to pull out.â
Grey stared at her for a moment. âWhat?â He was shocked.
Pull out of the Clear and Clean Skin award? Who was Hattie kidding?
