Secretly The Billionaire Boss by Debbie chocolate novel Chapter 191

Smith didn’t have to think long. He knew that it was all Alfred’s doing. There was absolutely no way Grey would be where he was without Alfred’s help.

Mia looked up at Grey. “What did you mean by that?”

Grey pulled out a seat for himself. “Hercules signed a contract with LX company and it wasn’t stated that he would be liable for the two companies.”

“But we own both. It’s joint,” Mia protested.

Grey shook his head slightly.” It doesn’t work that way unless you want us to reamend the contract. This is a business and we get involved in a lot of deals. You don’t expect us to stick with you alone.”

“Yes, that’s right,” Maria chimed in.” If you had told us this initially, we would have given you the answer. And it wasn’t stated in the contract that it was both for LX and LN. So, we are not liable,” she explained.

Smith stared daggers at Grey. He was furious but there was nothing he could do.

“But Hercules was supposed to trust us and do this for us even without the contract,” Smith said.

“That can’t work. Like I said earlier, Protos is huge and is involved in a lot of companies, in fact of the same products and businesses. This is an advertisement company,” Grey expressed.

Smith grunted and looked away.

But Grey wasn’t done talking. If you still want to continue with Protos Pubblicita, then it’s alright but if you would continue to insist on LX, then we will be forced to terminate this agreement,” He stood and smiled.” Have a nice day, Ladies and gentlemen,” and he walked out.

Maria smiled as well as she stood. “This meeting has ended. We are a very busy company and we have some other things to attend to already.”

Smith stood up angrily and walked out of the room, with the others.

“What are we going to do, Mr. Smith?” Mia inquired, bothered. She was the project manager of the cream company. Smith couldn’t stop thinking during the drive back to the company. Hercules was right anyways. Protos Pubblicita was an advertising company. They could advertise any company and also go by any business that gives them high profits or incentives. Though, Smith found it amazing that Hercules went with Grey’s company but then, he remembered that Allred was closer to Hercules. He could have helped Grey get a seat with Hercules,

Smith paced for some minutes, his head going in circles as it tried to supply a solution.

“I think we should improve on our products, if we don’t plan on quitting,” Mia said suddenly,

Smith pulled to a stop to look at her. “What did you just say? I won’t quit, no matter what. I will do everything that I can to make sure that Grey goes down. I can accept Hattie but I will

never accept defeat when it comes to that low life!” He expressed strongly.

Mia nodded in response.” I understand. Then, I guess we should improve our efforts. We could go to the media and promotes our products the more. We could change our containers to attract more customers. We could even have promo products,” he suggested.

Smith’s eyes sparkled up. “Yes, I love how those promo products sound. We will have open sales as well. Also, we should change all the containers.” Mia nodded briefly.” What about the containers we have at hand already?” “We are disposing of it.”

Mia’s eyes went wide in shock.” But they are so much and we’ve packaged.”

“We will have to find a way to do it but we are changing all the containers. Also, do get me two more advertising companies.” “But the funds. We don’t have enough money in the company account and all these will require huge money,” she warned softly

Smith nodded once.” Don’t worry about that. Just provide me with the total calculation. I will supply the money,” he assured.

Smith swore to spend anything and everything to achieve his aim, even if it means getting funds from LX company. He would not accept defeat from Grey.

Caramel’s head was spinning when she pulled off and walked out of the car when the engine was still running.

She felt a surge of anger, coupled with hatred and regrets.

She saw the news as well about Alex being the only son of Giovanni. She knew however that her mother’s death came from Giovanni and his men.

So, she knew that Alex would definitely have something to say about it.

That aside, she was kind of annoyed at the fact that he kept it away from her all the years that they’d been together. When her mother passed away, Alex was beside her to comfort her. He was always there and now that Caramel thought about it, the puzzles were slowly fixing itself.

Alex wasn’t in the gym or his favorite spot after the announcement but Caramel knew where she could find him. At least, she knew that about him.

“Alex!” She yelled in front of the mansion. It was a house rather secured away from the public. It was a place Alex could hide in without having to worry about anything and well, Caramel always showed up during those tiring times as well. It took a few minutes before the door opened slowly and Alex appeared from behind it. He hesitated as he stared at Caramel.

“Why did you lie to me?” Caramel whispered as she choked on her word.” Why did you hide away? Why didn’t you let me know you were Pablo or_,” she swallowed harder.” Giovanni’s son?”

Alex stared at her in silence.

“Or tell me it wasn’t true?” Caramel was more than frustrated. “Tell me it wasn’t!” She yelled.

Alex started forward slowly.” Calm down, Caramel.”

Caramel shook her head quickly.” Don’t tell me to! You lied to me! Your father killed my mother! You and your men killed my mom!” She yelled the allegation at him. Alex sighed.” Will you hear me out?” Caramel shook her head again.” I won’t! You had your time but you missed it! I won’t listen to more lies from you!” She shouted as tears streamed down her face. Just as she turned around to leave, several men came up from behind and blocked her way.

“Caramel, listen to me,” Alex said softly. Actually, he had soft spot for Caramel but she wouldn’t look his way. “Tell them to leave now!” Caramel yelled. “Now!” She cried the more.
