Secretly The Billionaire Boss by Debbie chocolate novel Chapter 216

Grey looked away, his mind making a quick calculation of what he was supposed to do Caramel must know he was hiding something What if she guessed it was him? And she found the root of it?

It was still very dangerous and he still didn’t know how Caramel would react to it

“I’m moving out now,” he announced suddenly

“Why?” Aphrodite was the first to ask, shocked

“Not really,” and he looked at Charles Follow me, and he walked away

Just as Caramel turned to look at him, Charles moved to block the view However, Caramel knew Hercules was around because the news was already circulating on social media

Caramel didn’t want to attend the party but suddenly, she received the invite and thought it was the maker of the dress that Grey got for her The manager really did tell her that she would be able to attend any red-carpet event till the end of the year

So, Caramel decided to show up She had even forgotten to inform Grey about it Though, he believed he wouldn’t know because he wouldn’t have been invited

Just as she walked further inside the hall, her gaze met Alex But Caramel was still angry It doesn’t matter if the mother she knew as her mother wasn’t the one that gave birth to her It still stands that Giovanni was the one that murdered her and she would never forgive his family ever

The look Alex sent her way showed how much Alex loved her Well, he had always loved her which was why he had always protected her all the years while pretending to be a friend to her Also, it was Alex that sent the invite. He had missed Caramel and wanted to see her but she wouldn’t grant his request

“The members of the Billionaire club have multiplied within years and today is the coronation of the new Billionaire president. I will go ahead with mentioning the names of the members before we proceed,” the man with the microphone explained and he started mentioning names Whenever he mentioned names. the light would find its way toward where the person was, showing everyone to whom the name belonged

This went on for some minutes. He made mention of Alfred, Gregory, and Jayden’s names Aphrodite didn’t join the club so her name wasn’t mentioned.

“So, now. We are moving over to the main reason we are here. As you all know that the club changes its president every two years. And you would all be amazed by who the new president is. He’s someone that you all wouldn’t have expected,” the man expressed with a smile on his face. He hesitated as the audience waited impatiently, in anticipation. The president hasn’t been replaced in the past six years Giovanni has been the only one taking the position. The funniest thing was that no one could confront him. So, they let him keep the position. It was also what helped him improve his businesses. And that is Hercules!” He yelled.

The light went directly on where the elders were, still waiting for Grey to come back. They didn’t know what had happened or why Grey suddenly excused himself.

“We need to find him,” Alfred said with urgency.

Suddenly, the light above their head went off and it concentrated on the entrance of the other door that probably led to some mini-changing rooms.

Grey emerged in designer clothes and shoes, and Charles was also beside him in designer wear. Grey had a hoodie on which he used to cover his hair and there was a mask on his face.

The light followed him up the stairs and towards the stage.

A round of applause ensued from the background

Caramel stared at Grey, shocked. She had heard a lot about Hercules but she had never been to the same gathering with him. And for once in her life, she was anxious as to who was under the mask She hoped that he would remove it

Suddenly, a hand was in the air. It was one of Giovanni’s men. Giovanni just whispered into his ears

*The president broke the first rule,” he started and the light went over his head so everyone could concentrate on him. “It was strictly suited to the coronation. The suit is the uniform So, he deserves to be impeached!” He yelled.

Giovanni smiled slightly and looked at Alfred, feeling pride in himself. He didn’t know why Grey changed but he was going to use it to his advantage.

Alfred shook his head briefly “Why did Grey change in the first place?”

“I have no idea and he could have discussed it with us before going ahead and we would have warned him,” Gregory responded.

Jayden sighed. Does this mean he would be impeached? He hasn’t even started his year Giovanni is only looking for ways to take the position from him,” he complained

“What do we do? We have to do something to help him Hercules shouldn’t be disgraced in such a way!Aphrodite stated firmly.

The man on stage looked shocked “Is this true?”

Everyone started murmuring between themselves They knew for sure that Hercules would be impeached immediately

“He shouldn’t have changed. I thought he was suited when he entered?”

Grey huffed and took the microphone from the man on stage. He looked at Charles and signaled to him.

Two men walked to the stage, pushing in a hanger where Grey’s suit was hung.

“This is my first contribution as the president,” he started and everyone went quiet and wondered what Hercules was going to say to stop the impeachment. Even the godfather was worried. He didn’t want the impeachment to happen but there was nothing he could do because it was the rule “I heard that an auction would happen today and decided to open the floor,” he let his voice get deep so that no one would be able to compare it with the usual Grey that they know.

*This is Stuart Hughes R. Jewels Diamond Edition Suit which I bought yesterday, specially for this party,” he revealed. Charles moved closer to show the receipt to the members and they all confirmed it.

Thank goodness that Charles brought the suit through his account as Hercules.

“And it cost $892,000,” he announced.

Some people took to social media to research it, while some already knew the price. The Diamond Edition suit was expensive.

“What is he doing?” Hattie asked, worried.

Giovanni sighed in defeat. He’s going to win.”

“I’m going to start the bidding with as low as $200,000.”

Everyone gasped.

Alfred smiled “He’s trying to buy the suit himself.”

“That’s not even possible!” Gregory complained.

Alfred shook his head briefly.” He wouldn’t, the guest will.”

He barely finished talking when someone raised a hand from the audience.

“I’m taking that suit for $300,000!” The man yelled.
