Secretly The Billionaire Boss by Debbie chocolate novel Chapter 196

David felt very annoyed but he was secretly planning on how to go about it with Hercules. He would show Grey how much power he had. When he succeeded in winning Hercules to his side, it would be easy to eliminate Grey out of his way.

“I respect your decision a lot, Grey but have you thought it through before deciding to meet with Mr. Jamal?” Alfred asked. He sat in the back seat with Grey while Saint drove the car.

Grey stared out through the window thoughtfully. “I’ve thought it through. Jamal is the only one that can help me out. And to seek his help would mean I would have to expose my identity to him,” he explained.

“Yes but what if Jamal is working with Giovanni?”

Grey looked at Alfred for a moment, the question sinking in very faster. “I will use my influence on him. Jimmy did some research and discovered that his only son looked forward to working with one of the Italian shoe companies in Italy.” He said briefly, expecting Alfred to grasp the rest. Alfred regarded him for a moment. “You are going to promise him so much?” Grey nodded once. “For keeping my identity in check, yes. As Aphrodite discovered, I have a share there. It will be easy to employ whoever I want.” he looked away.” It would be easy peasy,” he smiled. Alfred laughed.” That’s brilliant! But you might have to show in Italy for that.” Grey shrugged slightly.” So be it. I will do anything to keep my identity at this moment. You sure know what I’m talking about.”

Alfred nodded briefly.” Though, I believe you would be showing your face soon,” he revealed and Grey turned to look at him again.” Alex is out of the way. Some spies are also off. We only need to secure more grounds and you will finally be showing yourself to the world,” he announced.

Grey thought about it and wondered how it would be if people like the family of Robinson knew who he really was. He wondered what Caramel would do and the rest. Though, for some reason he enjoyed actually staying in the shadow. Revenge was sweeter that way. Saint pulled the car into one of the parking spaces. “I will confirm that everything is fine before I call you to enter. That aside, we can’t enter together because we don’t know who might be watching.” Alfred pointed out.

Grey nodded once.” That’s fine,” he responded and watched Alfred finally enter the hotel.

Grey got down as well and made his way toward the restaurant while waiting for Alfred’s call.

“No! Don’t be an idiot. I won’t,” the speaker stopped abruptly as Grey crashed into her. He realized immediately that it was Chloe, Chloe was on a call and bumping into Grey made her drop the phone unknowingly.

Chloe didn’t know that it was Grey. Her gaze went to the phone and a horror gasp escaped her throat. “What have you done to my phone? Are you blind? Don’t you_,” she stopped abruptly

when she looked up and saw who it was. “G_grey?” She stuttered. Shock kept her motionless and speechless.

Grey smiled softly and bent to pick up the phone. He saw how damaged it was as he placed it in Chloe’s shaking hands. Chloe was worried that she had made another silly mistake and she wondered if Grey would forgive her again. Grey took out his card instead and placed it in her arms. “Buy a new phone and return my card.

Chloe’s mouth dropped open in shock.”G_g_grey?” She stammered, as a hard lump suddenly formed in her throat, preventing a word from coming out successfully. Grey nodded briefly as a confirmation. “I damaged your phone, it’s fair that I buy you a new one. You can come to Protos Pubblicita to drop it,” he barely finished the statement when Alfred’s call came through. Knowing what he meant, he turned around and headed towards the hotel without picking up. Chloe stared behind Grey for a moment, unable to believe her ears or her eyes. Well, she didn’t expect Grey to still be kind to her despite how much she had done. If it was someone else, he wouldn’t be worried about her phone. Grey was just kind to have given her a return. “Isn’t that Grey?” Avery said suddenly behind her and she quickly hid the card.

Chloe looked at Avery. “Yes, he is. We met just now. I think he left in a hurry.” Avery regarded her for a moment. “Did you insult him? Was that why he left?”

“M_me?” Chloe stuttered. “No!” She laughed nervously. “I didn’t. Can we go and get what we came for?” She hurried away from Avery leaving her in a confused state.

Somehow, Avery couldn’t hide the fact that Chloe was acting weird. Chloe had always hated Grey anyways and it wouldn’t surprise her if she insult him.

Grey walked inside the VIP room. Jamal and Alfred were the only men in the room. And with the look that Jamal gave Grey, it was vividly clear that Alfred hadn’t told him who Grey was.

“So, Mr. Jamal. Here’s the visitor I came with and he has something to tell you,” Alfred announced. “Hi,” Grey started and moved to sit.

Jamal looked at him. “Hi, how may I help you?”

Grey hesitated for a moment. “I got the invite,” he said casually.

Jamal raised skeptical brows. “What?”

Grey nodded once. “My name is Grey Fox and I’m the Hercules,” he announced.

Jamal’s eyes went wide with shock. “What? Hercules?” He stared at him for a moment, then back at Alfred. “Seriously?”

Alfred nodded once. It’s the Hercules that needed your attention but because we still don’t want anyone to know about him just yet was why I had to do it in such a way,” he explained.

Jamal has always heard of Hercules and couldn’t help but feel pleased. He stood, despite his age. “Nice meeting you, Hercules.” He stretched out his hand for a handshake. Grey stood as well and received the handshake with a smile. They sat again. A smile spread across Jamal’s face.” So, how can I help you or why did you want to see me? Does it have anything to do with the Billionaire club party coming up in two weeks time?” “Well, yes.” Grey looked away for a moment.” I heard your son wants to work in the popular shoe company in Italy and has applied severally but wasn’t successful.” Jamal nodded briefly, confusion written all over his face. His son’s challenges have been something he had hidden so well. He didn’t expect anyone to find out…” How did you know?” Alfred cracked a laugh. “Is there really anything that Hercules doesn’t know?” “I will help him on the condition that you help me as well.” Grey went straight to the point. Jamal raised confused brows.” I still don’t understand you.”

“Well,” Grey sat up.” He would be employed at his desired company. That is if you can help me keep my identity secured. I’m not ready to show the world who I am, not to any members of the Billionaire club, not even to Giovanni and I want you to act on it or,” he sighed.” I will reject the invite.”

Actually, Jamal has heard a lot about Hercules. Although he didn’t expect him to be so young he knew that the world was anticipating seeing his face. That aside, he knew in fact that Hercules controls a lot of companies. So, he wasn’t a Billionaire, he was a Trillionaire. Joining the Billionaire club would affect the club in a good way. Alfred looked at Jamal with raised brows, “So, what do you say? Will you help Hercules or not?
