Secretly The Billionaire Boss by Debbie chocolate novel Chapter 204

"So, Hattie told me she had my baby changed. So, I buried the other dead child," Beatrice explained.

It was afternoon and Grey was writing down the list of the Recipe. " So, Caramel's mother had a deal with Hattie?" He inquired.

Beatrice nodded briefly. "I don't know what eventually transpired between them but Hattie was the one that killed her, " she revealed.

Grey's movement on the paper pulled to a sudden stop. He remembered clearly when Caramel told him that the mafia killed her mother. She was so sad and Grey wondered how it would be if she learned the truth.

"Would you tell her the truth?" He asked and resumed writing the Recipe.

Beatrice went silent for a moment, in a thoughtful manner, she slowly let out a sigh. "I don't think I can do it. It's ok if she continues to be by my side. That's sufficient for me. I won't separate her from her real family, " she explained.

Grey nodded briefly," You should get prepared. I will soon be done with this recipe," he expressed.

Beatrice nodded once and walked up the stairs.

Grey changed five ingredients and eventually added them to the steps. He stopped writing and released a relieved sigh.

Gregory was already scouting the areas for Caramel and it was almost time. Grey doesn't even know if they could do it. But he was optimistic about it.

And he would rather drop the real recipe than let Caramel die.

The doorbell rang suddenly, jerking him out of his thoughts. He got up and moved closer to the front door. Opening it, he stared at the security guard.

"Good afternoon sir but a woman wants me to give this to you," he explained.

Grey furrowed his brows as he took it. Could it be from Hattie? Was there something else that she wanted?

Grey entered the house and broke the seal. It was a handwritten letter and anonymous.

And there were only two paragraphs on them.

The first paragraph was, ' I'm sorry but I couldn't help but do this.'

And the second paragraph went like this. 'Hattie's company is where Caramel is.'

There was no more information, especially who the sender was. Grey rushed out of the living room, towards the security guard.

"Who gave you this letter?"

"A lady but she was wearing sunglasses. She wouldn't say her name but it looked like someone you will know," he explained.

Grey regarded the letter for another moment. Sure, if it was someone he didn't know, they would have dropped their names but who could it be?

Only a few people knew about Caramel's disappearance.

It was at that moment that Grey remembered he told Maria about

it. Though, he wondered why she would give him such details and still hide her identity. Maria was becoming his left hand.

But well, it doesn't matter. Grey would have the time to speak to her later about it.

At that moment, they would need to move on with their plan as fast as possible.

Grey hurried inside to grab his phone. He placed a call to Gregory. He picked up after the second ring.

"Boss, we are still on it. There's no sign of Caramel anywhere.

We've been watching every Hattie's hideout unless there's more that we don't know," Gregory informed.

Grey nodded briefly. " But you didn't check Smooth Therapy, right? It

Gregory went silent for a few seconds. " I don't think she would keep her there."

Grey smiled and nodded his head slightly. Hattie intentionally did it. She knew they wouldn't think of Smooth Therapy.

"Well, that's what she wants US to think. So, that's why she kept her there. Caramel is in Smooth Therapy," he dropped the bombshell.

" She's crafty," Gregory reasoned aloud.

"Yes but we will still proceed with our plan. Beatrice will be giving her the cream recipe to whirl away time while we will penetrate her company. It will be when the workers have already left, so it will be easy for US," he declared.

" What do you mean by US?"

" Because I'm joining you guys. Withdraw, Gregory, and get ready. I'm going to get ready too. We have just an hour to go," he finished and hung up.

Beatrice was already behind him. " Is that true?"

Grey turned to look at her, with a smile on his face. "Yes, true. We will get Caramel into safety soon. I just need to rewrite this cream recipe. I'm not going to allow Hattie to even have a clue about my mom's recipe," he pointed out and moved to the table, took the written paper, and tore it to pieces.

Beatrice laughed slightly. "I like this," she stated." But how did you find out?"

"Maria," Grey wondered aloud. Well, she was the only one that Grey told the situation on hand. They didn't even inform the police. So, there was no way anyone else would know about it.

"Wow! I love that girl!" Beatrice smiled, happiness flooding into her.

The doorbell rang again as Grey started to rewrite the cream recipe.

"I will get it," Beatrice said quickly and advanced towards the front door. She opened the door and stared at Maria for a moment before she pulled her into a bear hug. "Thank you so much, Maria. Thank you! I'm really grateful for this."

When she pulled back, Maria had this confused look on her face.

"Alright, but how is Caramel? Is the Boss really going to give out the cream recipe?" she inquired.

Beatrice's smile evolved into a dark frown as she watched Maria. " It wasn't you?"

Maria blinked once, then twice in confusion, "what?"

Beatrice sighed and closed the door. "Come," she led Maria towards Grey.

Grey looked up at Maria, with a smile. He couldn't stop smiling with appreciation for what Maria had done. Though, he was a bit curious and wanted to ask her how she did it.

"But Grey, it wasn't her," Beatrice revealed.

Maria watched the look on their faces. " what are you talking about?"

Grey regarded Maria for a moment, picked the letter from the table, and stretched it towards Maria. "You didn't write this?"

Maria took it and read through it. she gathered brows on her forehead. "I didn't! I'm just coming from Protos Pubblicita and thought I should check if you've made progress concerning Caramel. I didn't send this. This is not even my handwriting." she revealed.

Then, who did?
