Secretly The Billionaire Boss by Debbie chocolate novel Chapter 81

Chapter 81: Imitation Emma eyed Grey levelly. “As if he would be able to get a decent gift. He just started working as a manager and he has a lot of money to pay back at his previous work,” She hinted.

“Yes but maybe he took some advances,” Smith laughed.

“Grandpa, you can always check it later. It doesn’t have to be now,” Avery complained, supporting Grey. “He’s one of my sons-in-law, it’s right that he presents it to me as others have!” Lucy said with finality and with a voice that left no room for more.

Grey looked at Avery but she averted her gaze, already feeling embarrassed.

Grey stood up, with the box and moved closer to Lucy. Just as he stretched it out, Smith rushed forward and took it from him.

“Let’s see what you’ve got,” he smirked and brought out a stainless watch. He blinked once as he stared at it.

It was Patek Philippe Ref 1518 in stainless steel. It was the same brand as the watch Chris got but it cost much.

“Is that Patek Philippe stainless watch?” Diana’s eyes bulged at the realization. Grey nodded briefly. “It’s Patek Philippe in stainless steel,” he affirmed.

Chloe went to the internet quickly and suddenly raised the phone. “Patel Philippe in stainless Steel worth 11 million dollars,” she announced for everyone to hear.

Avery couldn’t believe her eyes. She thought of how Grey got a huge amount of money. There was no way he would have gotten it as an advance payment or a salary for the work he just started.

Chris couldn’t contain the anger that was slowly rising in him. At first, it came as a shock. He didn’t expect a loser like Grey to have such a possession. That aside, he knew what that might cost him. He was worried that Avery might actually start seeing him as the husband. “It’s probably fake!” Chris declared. Grey turned to look at him, obviously angry. “Do you think I was like you? Do you think I would really get a fake like you did?” “What the fuck are you talking about?” Avery yelled at Grey, in defense of Chris. Grey smirked. “Do you think I didn’t know that the Pure Rina’s diamond was an

imitation?”

Chris’s eyes widened in shock. He wondered how he found out. Who the fuck was he anyways? “How dare you say that to me!” Chris yelled back while pretending he didn’t know what Grey was actually talking about. “Are you trying to put your acts on me? Where the fuck did you see the watch if it wasn’t an imitation?” “You must be senseless to think Chris would stoop so low as you did!” Emma fired back.

“Yes! Chris is rich enough to get Pure Rina’s diamond for Avery!” Chloe acknowledged.

Lucy looked over at Chloe.” What! Chris got Pure Rina’s diamond for Avery?” “Yes grandpa,” Avery said quickly.” It was for my birthday.” Lucy smiled while nodding his head to show how pleased he was. If Chris could get a 50 million dollars gift for Avery and a 6 million dollars gift for him, then he was very rich. And it was his likes that he actually wanted for Avery. It was circumstances that led to Grey.

“I will not stand this insult!” Chris boomed suddenly.

Grey was still watching him. “Will you like me to show everyone the evidence?”

“Nonsense! How dare you insult our guest!” Emma yelled at him. “Yes, that’s uncalled for!” Chloe supported. “Grey should apologize!” Benjamin pointed out. “Exactly!” Diana nodded. “He should.” Actually, Dina has been having an eye out for Chris for a long time. Grey couldn’t believe his ears. Well, he had already suspected what would happen. People would believe Chris and doubt him. But he wouldn’t apologize.

“I can show the evidence if you want to. We could call the ring checker!” Grey suggested.

Chris’s heart made a sudden thud in his chest. He knew that he would be busted if everyone went by Grey’s suggestion. Suddenly, he started sweating on his palm.

“It’s ok!” Lucy said suddenly and every murmur died down. “Where did you get the money to buy the watch?” He asked instead, and Chris released a relieved sigh. Grey turned to look at Lucy. “I won a lottery.” “A lottery?” Diana and the ladies burst out laughing.

Grey nodded briefly. “Yes, I won a lottery and got this watch with it.” “Let me get this straight. You won a lottery and you got an imitation with it?” Smith jibed and released a rumble of laughter.

“Sure, there is no way you will be able to get the original watch. The imitation costs a lot as well!” Emma indicated.

“Yes! Imitation costs nothing less than two million dollars!” Chloe affirmed.

“How dare you bring an imitation as a gift!” Smith snarled and turned to look at Lucy. “I will dispose of this immediately.” he stretched the watch out to one of the maids.

Caramel stepped in, just in time as the maid moved towards the entrance. “Wait!” She said suddenly, just as the maid was about to throw it away. “Is that not Patek Philippe?” Her father was a lover of watches as well and she had once gotten the same for him. So, she knew how much it cost.

She took the watch from the maid and continued to examine it. Perhaps, it wasn’t what she thought. Her eyes went wide as she continued to examine it.

“You should dispose of that! It’s an imitation,” Smith suggested.

Caramel looked up at him.” Who owns this watch?” She recognized it well. There was no way it would be an imitation and still looks exactly like the original. “I am,” Grey stepped forward immediately. “Welcome,” he greeted and took the watch from her. Caramel couldn’t stop thinking about it. It was the third time that Grey was hiding from her. And she was almost close to knowing the truth. Smith went to Lucy and whispered in his ear. “You should tell Avery to head the contract with Protos Pubblicita. She should see it as a gift for your birthday,” he advised.

Lucy nodded at the suggestion and turned to look at Avery.” Avery, I want something as a birthday gift. Will you do it for me?” Avery stared at him for a moment, surprised. Then, she slowly nodded.” What do you want, Grandpa?”

“I want you to head the team for Protos Pubblicita.”

Avery couldn’t believe her ears. Her Grandpa was being adamant and something kept telling her that he had something up his sleeve. Even at that, she was ready

to take back the position.

Emma smiled and looked at Avery.” You don’t keep your grandfather waiting!” She cautioned.

Just as Avery opened her mouth to respond, Grey screamed immediately.” She doesn’t agree.”
