Secretly The Billionaire Boss by Debbie chocolate novel Chapter 161

Grey hung up and sipped more of his fruit juice. He decided to speak with Aphrodite as he knew that he would be so frustrated.

He took a sip of the fruit juice before he walked out of the room.

He walked to the changing room where he knew that Aphrodite would be.

“Grey, what the fuck was that?” Aphrodite yelled suddenly at one of the makeup artists. She sounded so angry.

“I’m so sorry!” The makeup artist uttered, confusingly.

Aphrodite was taking the frustration out of her.

Grey sighed. “Novia,” he called softly.

Aphrodite turned back, and on seeing Grey, a smile appeared on her face. “Grey!” She called, exhausted.

Grey smiled and looked at the make-up artist. “Leave us,” he uttered. The makeup artist bowed slightly and walked out. “How the fuck did the photos disappear?” She complained.

Grey moved closer to him.” I’m sorry, Novia. It’s all my fault. I’m so sorry for disturbing you, ” he said softly and moved to sit in front of her.

“I’m so frustrated. Would I have to do the shoot again? It’s tiring already!” She complained again.

“There’s a short break, do you want me to take you for a drive?”

Aphrodite thought about it for a moment.” Where would you drive to?”

“Around but we would get something to eat. But in this situation, I think you need a fresh breeze. That will actually do the trick. How about that?”

A smile curved on her lips.” Let’s do that.”

Grey stood up and stretched out a hand towards her, “let’s go then.”

Aphrodite took his hand and he pulled her up with it.

He led her out of the dressing room.

David emerged suddenly, with a dark frown on his face. “Hi Miss Aphrodite, I would like to apologize for everything that has happened today. And to Grey_”

” Mr. Grey,” Grey corrected quickly David hesitated, as he watched him. If looks could kill, Grey would be dead already.

“Do you have anything to say to bim or not?” Aphrodite spoke suddenly

“Sure. Mr. Grey, I’m very sorry for everything I hope this will settle our differences.”

“We will see about that,” Grey responded and turned to look at Aphrodite.” Can we leave

then?” “Sure,” Aphrodite nodded. They both walked out of the hall.

David stared behind them for a while, anger boiling inside him. He had to suppress the urge to punch him. But, his job was on the line.

He would be patient until it was the right time Grey opened the door for Aphrodite and closed it after she had gotten in He rounded the car to enter the driver’s seat.

“How was the auction?” Aphrodite asked as Grey pulled the car out of the street. “Was Hattie around?

Grey nodded once. “Yes, and I saw Giovanni as well.”

Aphrodite turned to look at Grey, alerted.” Did he recognize you?”

Grey glanced at her. “Why would he?” “Come on, Grey. You went there bidding as you liked. I’m sure you went as high as 8 million dollars.”

Grey smiled softly.” Yes, I did but I didn’t buy anything. Giovanni raised it to 100million. Damn, I felt pity for him. It was something like 5 million. I’m sure the auctioneer would be so grateful to me,” he joked. Aphrodite laughed. “You aren’t serious sometimes. It was just how you have always been when we were young.”

“Seriously? Is there anything you remember about me?”

“Let me see,” Aphrodite thought for a moment.” Oh, I remember the day you found a gun in your father’s closet. You brought it to me and while you were trying to explain, the gun was directed at me. I was so scared that I screamed for you to pull it away.”

Grey smiled as the memories rushed in. He had really missed them all.

“But the fun was cut short when your father came in. Did you later learn how to use a gun?”

Grey shook his head briefly.” I suck at it but I have someone to help me now. Can you believe I wanted to shoot someone but it went into the wall beside him?”

Aphrodite laughed so hard that her knuckles nearly turned white. “Are you kidding me?”

“Come on, don’t laugh. It’s not funny, Novia!” He feigns seriousness. “No, it is. I just imagine you trying to target the heart but you got the eye. Well, it’s the same, isn’t it? At least you knew how to pull the trigger,” she teased.

Grey joined her.” Come on! Stop laughing! You are making me laugh as well.” Aphrodite became sober and turned to look at him.” Should I be your teacher before I go back? I can teach you how to use a gun real fast.” Grey smiled.” That’s so kind of you. Where would it be?”

“My house of course. It’s safe and secured, never worry,” she assured,

Grey pressed on the accelerator that Aphrodite almost knocked her head against the mirror if it wasn’t for the support of the seatbelt.

“What the fuck did you just do?” Aphrodite yelled and feigned anger.

Grey smiled again.” It’s my turn to tease you. Have you ever seen me drive?” He made a turn so sudden that Aphrodite moved to her left.

“Who the fuck drives like this?” Aphrodite laughed.

“Hercules, obviously!” Grey pulled the car to a sudden stop as if he changed his mind, then he reversed. The car was moving so fast, and even though Aphrodite didn’t like it, she enjoyed it.

“You are one notorious person, sincerely,” Aphrodite laughed as Grey got into the road again. “After this rendezvous, should we go back to the shoot? The earlier, the better.”

Aphrodite nodded quickly.” I feel very energized, even without any intake. And yes, I can’t wait for you to deal with Hattie. We need to take the medal from her.”

Grey pulled to a sudden stop.” Yes, that’s our plan. That’s why you need to help me.”

Aphrodite nodded again.” Yes, let’s do that.”

Grey flashed a smile. “Stay here while I get ice cream to cool you down. How about that?”

“You sure know how to calm a girl.”

Grey smiled. He would have accepted the compliment if Avery hadn’t been playing so hard to get. Avery felt like the hardest woman he had ever come across.
