Secretly The Billionaire Boss

Chapter 344: Strange

Grey went into a shocking state for a moment as if he didn’t even hear what Mark said at first or maybe his ears were playing tricks on him.

Maria must have definitely said a different thing. It was because he missed Caramel and the fact that he just received news of her disappearance.

"What did you just say, Maria?"

"A lady is here to see you. In fact, she has been here for a while and has refused to leave until you come back. She told me that she's Caramel. Yet, I didn't want her to stay until she told me to call Hercules,” she hesitated. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

"I knew only a few knew you as one. So, I agreed she must know you. That's why I'm calling. In fact, she’s in your office," she explained.

Well, it was right as Maria doesn’t know Caramel as his girlfriend. So, there was no way she would guess that they have a connection to each other.

“Are you sure it's really Caramel?" Grey asked, to be sure.

"Yes, that’s what she told me and I think she’s telling the truth. Though, she's really looking so strange and haggard. It looks like something has happened to her. Anyways, I think you should come here faster,” she advised.

Grey nodded briefly.

"I’m on my way,” he announced and hung up.

He looked at Jimmy.

"Turn around. We are going to Protos Publiccita,” he announced suddenly and watched Jimmy nod briefly.

His heart made a sudden beat of his heart. Caramel was alive? The thought of it sent a shiver down his spine. He couldn't wait to hold her in his arms or kiss her.

But he still felt very angry about the death of Beatrice. He couldn't wait to find out what the cause was. And who would even dare to lay his or her hand on Beatrice?

He didn't call Alfred because he wasn't yet sure if it was really Caramel that was waiting for him in Protos Pubblicita. Until it has been confirmed, Grey wasn’t going to inform Alfred about anything.

Grey rushed down from the car before Jimmy would get down to open the door. He hurried inside the company. He placed a call to Maria the moment he entered the elevator.

Maria picked it up instantly. "Hello, boss."

"I’m on my way to The supervisor's office. Where is Caramel?"

"She's in the supervisor's office. I don’t want anyone to suspect anything was why I didn't let her wait for you in Hercules's office," she revealed.

Grey nodded once. "That's actually cool. Thank you, Maria," he finished and hung up.

He hurried out of the elevator so fast that one would have thought he was on the way to receive a trophy. He pulled the door opened and hesitated. Caramel looked up at him with surprised features and then suddenly, she smiled.

Grey stood frozen for a moment as he watched Caramel, still unable to believe she was there at that moment. There was a plaster across her cheeks and red marks on her neck.

"Caramel?" He called softly, to confirm he was really looking at her. It felt so surreal.

Caramel stood up, the wide grin spread even wilder on her face. "Grey," she called softly as well and hurried closer until she ended up in his embrace. She held him so tight as if she was afraid of losing him. "I'm so happy that I’m seeing you again."

Grey hands went around her as he pulled her closer to himself more. "I'm so happy to see you but what happened to you? Why do you have bruises all over?"

Caramel went quiet, instead, her hold tightened around him.

Grey held her hands and pulled her back slowly.

‘‘What happened? Tell me. You know you can tell me anything,” he initiated and stared right at her in the eyes.

Caramel started sobbing softly.

“Beatrice is dead, my mom is dead,” she sobbed even harder.

Grey watched her for a moment. "How did it happen? What happened? I sent someone to look for you but they couldn't find you. They only found Beatrice. Is there something you know about who took Beatrice or who killed her? Something must have happened.”

Caramel nodded once. "They killed her but I don't know who did. I don’t know!" She sobbed even harder. "I was taken and I escaped. Mom aided me and got taken back. I heard the gunshot and my mom-," her voice trailed off. Grey stiffed.

" What about the baby?"

Caramel went quiet for a moment and slowly withdraw.

“How did you know?” Her eyes went wide with shock."

Grey almost froze at the thought that something had actually happened to the child. He couldn't bear Beatrice enough, talk more of the baby.

“Beatrice sent me a message weeks back. In fact, it turned out that it was the day that you and Beatrice left home. What really happened? How did you get kidnapped?"

Caramel pulled him into a hug again. "I'm so hungry. I'm so tired. I can't even think clearly now."

Grey nodded briefly and stroked her back slowly.

"I understand. I really do. I will send someone to take you home,” he pulled back to look at her very well again. “Just rest and take care of yourself. We will talk better when I get off work."

Caramel nodded slightly, with a smile. Though, Grey could see the relaxed look on her face.

He placed a call to Jimmy and he picked it up immediately. "Meet me in the office now. You need to drop Caramel at my house."

“Alright sir," Jimmy finished up and soon opened the door.

Grey smiled at Caramel. "So, just eat and relax. You will be fine."

Grey watched Jimmy escort Caramel out before he picked up his phone to call Alfred.

Alfred didn't pick up until the third ring. "Hello Grey, is everything alright?”

"Maybe but as I'm speaking with you, Caramel is on the way to my house," he announced.

Alfred was shocked for a moment. "What! How come?" "She was waiting for me at the office. Apparently, she couldn't go to my first house since I've moved already."

"This is strange!"
