Chapter 346: Dead or not

Grey was shocked for a moment, coupled with confusion. He glanced back at Caramel. She was eating slowly, a bit unusual.

Also, Grey noticed that she had been acting a bit weird but he simply thought it was because she just arrived or what she had faced in Seattle.

‘You think so?” Grey demanded.

"I don’t think so, I know so. My men are still looking anyway and I would always give you feedback. But I just called you to tell you this. Be very careful with her," he repeated.

Grey sighed, remembering that it was the same thing that Aphrodite actually said. "Did you tell Aphrodite anything about Caramel?"

"Well, she was with me when my men were giving me feedback. So, she heard everything," Alfred revealed. Grey let out a sigh again.

"Alright, take care. We will talk later,” he finished and hung up.

Grey sighed again, unable to decide on something at that moment. He felt stuffed. He was supposed to be happy that Caramel was back, why was he feeling somehow again?

Well, he had to be cautious and make use of Alfred's words. And he needed to study Caramel very deeply. He walked back to Caramel. "How do you feel, Caramel?"

Caramel smiled, with a mouthful. “I'm fine, actually. What was the call you received? Is everything alright?"

Grey nodded briefly and started at the food in front of him. “Everything is fine. Maria was just updating me with work."

Caramel nodded slightly.” I understand. You should continue eating your food."

Grey nodded once and regarded her for a moment before he glanced at the food and back at Caramel.

He sat up suddenly and moved closer to Caramel. He pulled out a seat beside her. "I feel like eating from your plate,” he laughed as if it wasn't a big deal. Well, it wasn't but there was something strange at that moment.

“Why?” caramel raised a brow. "Why do you want to do that?”

Grey shrugged slightly. "No reason. Maybe because I'm used to doing it with you."

Caramel looked away for a moment and looked back at him.

“Yes," she smiled softly.

Grey reciprocated her smile and took a fork. He took a fork of her meat and chewed it.

"There's a lot we need to talk about,” he informed her while chewing.

Caramel nodded in response. "Yes, you are right but I think I need to take a nap before I start talking.”

Grey nodded once. "I know but we could say a few things before you actually sleep. I will work with that while you are asleep."

Caramel nodded in response. "I will work with that."

Grey stood. “Wait for me in the bedroom, I will be there after clearing the table."

Caramel smiled and stood as well. "Alright, I will be waiting then but you will have to eat your food later, right?"

Grey nodded briefly, with a smile. "I will."

Caramel flashed him another smile before she walked inside.

Grey took his plate of food and hurried to give the food to the dog before he hurried inside to meet Caramel.

She was sitting on the bed and really waiting for him. He hesitated as he regarded her for a moment before he stepped inside.

"You asked me the other time about the baby," she started suddenly and looked up at Grey. “I lost the baby," she dropped the bomb and Grey froze for a moment.

What! She lost the baby? Grey felt a wall of pain descending on him. How could he not see it coming? He had just lost another two important people in his life. How could he not see it coming?

Grey swore mentally. He was really going to kill whoever had done such an evil thing. He was going to make them pay.

"And we were kidnapped,” she sobbed quietly. "Me and Beatrice. And they killed my mother,” she sobbed even harder.

Grey moved closer to her and pulled her closer to himself. He felt his anger rise in him but he had to be strong for Caramel.He stroked her back slightly while his other fist clenched angrily beside him.

"Who are they?" He demanded.

Caramel hesitated for a moment. "I have no idea. I don't know who they are or what they are. My mother got killed while she was trying to make me escape.”

Grey remembered what Alfred told him. "When did Beatrice die? When did you escape?"

She pulled back slowly and looked away. Beatrice died three days ago and I've been on the street. I was just able to beg and get the money to come back to Jacksonville today. I actually thought I wouldn't be able to come over here or I might get captured and maybe killed," she explained and Grey believed her instantly.

He pulled her closer to himself again. Well, her explanation matched well with what Alfred had explained to him. Since there was nothing to be suspicious of, he thought it was safe to trust her.

A minute, Caramel was sobbing and the next minute, she was quiet. Grey looked down at her and realised she was asleep already.

He gently placed her on the bed very well and covered her with the blanket.He regarded her for a moment before he walked out to the living room to clear the other dishes.He didn't know if he should call Alfred and let him know the current situation of things.His phone rang even before he was done thinking but it was Emily this time.He sighed before he picked it up. “Hi, Emily. Are you alright? Your mother said you travelled," he said and moved into the living room. Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

"Yes but I'm back now," she laughed.

"And she said you resigned. Why is that so?”

"Well, I did that so that I can work for you fully. I mean with that, I would be available for you at all times."

Grey walked out of the living room unconsciously. "No problem. I will contact you soon but…” he was forced to a sudden stop as he stared at the dog lying on the floor lifelessly.
