Secretly The Billionaire Boss
Chapter 47: Assignment There was no one in the living room when Grey walked in.
He opened the bedroom door slowly so that he wouldnât wake up Avery. Little did he know that she woke up the moment the door opened.
Grey woke up earlier than Avery. He didnât want Avery to waste his time that morning. In fact, he got to the dining table before her.
Though, Avery came in a few minutes after, âFather, how has the company been?â Emma started a conversation Grey sighed The family is used to talking during breakfast. Maybe because they donât usually have the time to have dinner together or maybe Lucy just doesnât like to lalk in the evening âFine. How else do you suppose it is? Smith is running it perfectly,â Lucy answered in a harsh tone. Il still shows that he was angry at Avery.
Emma sighed. âIf only you could reconsider. Avery does a better job when she is there,â She mumbled.
Avery looked over at Emma âStop mom!â She whispered Emma sighed and eventually decided to concentrate on the food.
âGrey,â Lucy started suddenly âI heard you were fired. is that true?â
Avery looked over at him âGrandpa, who told you that?
* Smith. He knows more anyways. Heâs going to sign a contract deal with Protos Pubblicita by Monday, he revealed.
At the mention of the name, Grey looked up from the food. âDo you mean Herculesâs company?â
*Yes, itâs the main company. Itâs very big company and Iâm so glad that Smith was able to seal the deal.â Lucy announced happily He looked so happy that he might decide to give the righi to the company to Smith and that would be a disaster for Avery.
Avery winced and meddled with the food, the appetite lost already âProtos Pubblicita is an advertising company. An advertisement from it will fetch us a lot of money. But dad, do you think Avery wouldnât have been able to do that?â Emma blurted out.
âWell, Avery didnât think that all this while. Smith was able to do that and he would be meeting with Representatives from Protos Pubblicita and even sign the contract on Monday. Itâs sealed. Besides, your daughter has shown interest in other things,â he indicated, his voice rising above normal already.
Avery stared at the food as a tear dropped from her eyes, unto cheeks. She wiped it off quickly but Grey saw it.
âHow about we do it like this, Grandpa? The contract hasnât been signed. You can give Avery the opportunity to prove herself and see who will get Protos Pubblicita to sign the contract with your company,â he brought up.
All gazes turned towards him as if he was speaking in gibberish.
âWhat are you doing? Avery whispered, shocked.
Grey shrugged. For once, he felt like the words were forced out of his mouth.
âOh, shut up Grey! I have no time for you this morning!â Emma snarled.
You lost your job! You donât even have the right to talkâ Avery added quickly, suddenly feeling embarrassed She knew that her father would be angrer at her. He might even decide to take the last company from her Grey regarded Avery for a moment, then at Emma, then back at Avery âWho said I lost my job? I went to work this morning.â
* You did?â Benjamin was surprised Grey nodded quickly. âYes, I went to work. I didnât get sacked, I only got transferred to another company.â he explained âIs that nght?â Lucy turned to look at him.
Grey nodded briefly. âIâm currently at work, thanks to Alfred Lucy nodded briefly âYou are not that useless after all,â he drank some water. âI think Grey is right. I should probably have given this assignment to both Avery and Smith,â he looked at Avery â You should try your best. Who knows, it might change your fate,â he stood up and walked out âWow! Did my father just say that?â Emma jubilated Avery turned to look at Grey âDo you even think before talking? How could you bring up such a ridiculous idea? She was getting angry already Grey stared. dumbfounded, â If your grandfather agrees with it, then itâs not ridiculousâ
âWell, it is How could I compete with Smith? And the space is so little,â she sighed. This is the same as giving up. No, this is even worseââ
What Avery? What are you blaming the poor boy for? Your grandfather is finally giving you a chance, thanks to what Grey said,â Benjamin voiced out Avery shook her head quickly â No dad, you donât understand this Smith is supposed to seal the contract by Monday and today is Friday How am I supposed to meet with representatives from Protos Pubblicita? Thatâs even minor, how do I know if Smith hasnât met them already? They could have agreed and only decided to sign the contract on Monday Itâs a futile effortâ She sighed And since Grey had mentioned it to grandpa, he might get disappointed even the more if I donât get it!â
* This is all Greyâs faultâ Emma pointed out quickly, angrily âWhy are you blaming the poor boy? He isnât Smith! He isnât the one running the company instead of Avery, âBenjamin went for Greyâs rescue âOh seriously? If he hadnât brought up the idea, everything wouldnât be like this!â Emma announced.
Grey sighed. It looked like he had made another mistake. Maybe he shouldnât have stepped in. Well, he just desperately wants to help her.
*But you just have to meet with Hercules,â Grey suggested Emma burst into laughter. âWhere did this man come from? Heâs so clueless about things around him!â
Why? What?â Grey felt lost. Avery wouldnât have to meet with the representatives if she can deal with Hercules.â
Benjamin slapped his forehead slightly in embarrassment âDo you think itâs easy to see Hercules? No one had seen him in years âWewâGrey looked over at Avery âWe can find him. Heâs not dead and he has a house and he most definitely would have a secretary,â Grey explained You? And Avery?â Emma laughed the more âYes, you are right. She could even seduce him and solve all pending matters,â she teased. Avery was getting irritated already Mom! Donât be ridiculous, Iâm going to work,â she stood up quickly. She went for her bag and walked out of the house Grey rushed after her quickly.
