Secretly The Billionaire Boss

Chapter 327

Chapter 327: Not a sister

Linda shook her head briefly, as fear engulfed her.

"No, I don't think that's necessary.I know that you are Hercules and that's enough.Thank you so much, I really appreciate it but I would rather get off now."

She heard a lot about Hercules already anyways.And the fact that no one has seen his face.She wondered what would happen to whoever sees his real face and Linda wasn't ready to experience it.She loved her life too much to risk it.

Grey huffed.

"To 5 star immediately," he ordered.

"Yes boss," the driver responded.

Linda shivered until the door opened suddenly.

She didn't know what she was supposed to do or what Hercules wanted with her.

But she decided to obey orders because she also knew that people like Hercules would easily be angered if someone ignored them.

So, she complied and was led to the room specifically made for Hercules.

Fear gripped her when she saw the tag that she couldn't bring herself to sit when she got inside.

The door opened almost immediately and Linda jumped up.

Grey walked inside and regarded her for a moment.

"Come and have your sit," he beckoned her.

Rather, Linda went on her knees.

"Please, I'm so sorry.I didn't mean to pull your name into the mud.I didn't add anything to the cream," she rattled off.

She thought Hercules was angry at her for what had been spread concerning Victoria Skincare that he had decided to kill her.She would rather spend her life in the cell than die.

The door opened again and this time, two waitresses pulled in a food cart.

They offloaded the food and walked out.

Linda was still kneeling, unsure of what to do.

"Linda, come over here,"

Grey stressed in a voice that should actually be familiar to her ears because Grey had dropped the fake deep voice that he was using initially.But well, he knows that it would be difficult to compare both personalities.

Grey moved to sit, while Linda still refused to stand.He sighed and pulled away the mask.

"Look at me then." Linda looked up and her eyes went wide with shock.

"Grey?"

Grey smiled and nodded once.

"Will you sit now?"

"But, how did it happen?"

She was more shocked than anything.

"Where's Hercules?"

"Well, long story.You must be famished.There's a brush for you in the bathroom.You can brush your teeth and even change your clothes before coming to eat."

Linda's head was still reeling.

"What? But this room belongs to Hercules.What If he caught me here?"

Grey chuckled.

"You still don't understand it, Linda.This place belongs to me.I am Hercules," he announced.

Linda went shocked for a moment.

"You are what?" Grey nodded once.

"Yes, I'm the Hercules and this is why I have decided to claim Victoria Skincare under my official name.Though, you do know that no one knows who is under the mask."

Linda nodded briefly, as she tried to smile.

"Yes, sir.I understand.Thank you so much for getting me out of the cell."

Grey stood.

"That's ok.I initially thought I would be able to talk to you about Victoria Skincare but I think that will happen later.Take care and have enough rest today, I will see you later, and don't tell anyone who I

really am."

Linda nodded briefly.

"I will never," she smiled genuinely.

Grey regarded her for another moment before he walked out with the men.

Linda was still shocked.

Though, she knew with instincts that Grey was someone she had to keep close to.

Who knows that Grey was an important person? Grey tried Beatrice’s number again and again before he got home but it was always unavailable.

He darted at his watch and realised that he had an hour before the meeting with James would start.He would use that opportunity to go home and freshen up.

When he entered the bedroom, it was dark but he didn't remember switching off the light.

It felt like something was off somewhere but he couldn't figure out what that thing was.

He switched on the light and his gaze searched around quickly for any suspicious things.

When he saw none, he pulled off his shirt and made his way toward the bathroom.

He stopped suddenly when he heard something move in the closet.

He wondered who would have followed him home and was hiding in the closet.

Or was it Giovanni that sent someone to spy on him? Well, he wasn't supposed to miss the guards unless the person came in through the back door.

He started moving nearer to the closet, slowly.

He was almost there when someone jumped out of the closet and attacked him.

The perfume from his attack wafted to his nose and he immediately recognized who it was.

His mouth opened slightly.

"Novia?"

Aphrodite stopped behind him for a moment and looked up at him.

"Yes, you guess right."

Grey was shocked.

"what are you doing?"

Aphrodite released a sigh.

"Don't_call_me_your_sister!"

She muttered angrily, dropped the knife, and rushed a punch at him.

He remembered briefly when he mentioned it.

It was even when she looked at him but he didn't know she was so upset.

Grey caught her hands so easily and pulled her into a hug instead.

"Novia," he called softly and released his hold on her.

Aphrodite relaxed.

"Even if you won't look at me like a woman, never shatter the little hope I have in me.I'm not your sister.We could be anything but not like siblings." Grey released an exasperated sigh.

"Ok, I'm sorry.I didn't mean to offend you.But when have you been standing in the closet."

"I came here the moment I left Protos Pubblicita," she confessed.

Grey smiled and pulled her back.

"Now you will need to shower because I've just hugged you."

"Well, I came prepared," she laughed and walked to the closet.

She pulled out a bag. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

"I bought a dress," and she walked out while moving her lower waist.

Grey shook his head briefly.

What has he gotten himself into?
