Secretly The Billionaire Boss

Chapter 363

Chapter 363: Staged

"What the fuck! Hercules!" Gregory s deep voice yelled from behind. Everyone rushed forward.

Aphrodite shook Grey violently.

Grey's eyes were still open as he coughed out blood and he was looking right at Caramel.

A hand went to his face as if to rip the mask off but Aphrodite blocked it even though she didn't look up to see who it was. She was too occupied with Grey himself but she was sure that she would never let anyone pulled down his face mask.

Some healthcare men rushed inside and helped Grey out of the hall.

Caramel still couldn't leave the spot that she was. The image that was flashing in front of her eyes made her speechless.

Caramel saw herself in a dark room with Beatrice. And Richard was standing in front of them. He was asking some questions but Caramel wasn't responding to him.

Caramel didn't see more than that before she jerked out of it. Grey was actually telling the truth. What has she done? How could she poison him? How could she work with the enemy?

"You are coming with me. Caramel,” Alfred said behind her suddenly.

The party was in ruin already but they wanted it to proceed so it won't be in history that it was Hercules that destroyed the party. Jamal moved to Alfred. "You can be with Hercules. I will make sure everything is fine here,” he assured him.

Alfred nodded briefly. “Thank you.”

Jamal nodded once and walked to the stage to address everyone.

Alfred turned to Caramel. "Come with me” he ordered in a thick voice and a facial expression that scared Caramel.

Alfred walked out with Caramel. He hesitated beside one of Grey's cars. ‘We need to talk. Get inside the car,” he muttered and got inside the back seat as there was already a man in the front seat.

Caramel got inside beside him, with tears streaming down her face. She felt regretful and pained. Even though she was yet to remember all but the little she does remember showed that Richard was supposed to be her enemy and the one she should be running away from while Grey was the one she should have been close with and not poisoned.

“Drive!” Alfred ordered and the car pulled out of the garage.

‘What do you want now?” Alfred asked suddenly.

Caramel sobbed quietly. “ I'm so sorry. I didn't know. I didn’t know what I was doing. I was bent on revenge!” she sobbed the more, feeling miserable.

Alfred let out a sigh. "How much do you remember now?"

Caramel concentrated for a moment, and then, she started to see images again. Her heartbeat increased as the images flashed through her eyes.

"I remember everything that happened in Seattle," she voiced out and looked at Alfred. "And not anything beyond that. And I'm ready to do anything you ask of me.”

Alfred looked at her. "Fine because you are going to tell me everything."

Caramel nodded several times. "I'm ready to."

"Drive straight home,” he ordered the driver, only to look at Caramel.

"Tell me who Richard is and where to find him first. Others can follow."

"I don't know where to find him but I do remember where he took me and my mother after he kidnapped us,” she explained.

Alfred nodded briefly and pulled out his phone. He dialled one of his men in Seattle that had been looking for Richard all day and hadn't been able to get to him.

He stretched out the phone to Caramel.

‘'Tell them where they can find him."

Caramel nodded once and took the phone.

"But is Grey going to be alright? Is he going to die? Have I killed him?”

Alfred shook his head briefly.

"No, you haven't. We have it under control and in fact, he's healthy."

Caramel eyes went wide with surprise. "How?"

Aphrodite couldn't stop pacing. It has been up to thirty minutes since Grey was wheeled inside. It even took them five minutes to prepare trusted doctors to attend to him because they would have to pull down the face mask.

Though, the doctor that was currently attending to him was Alfred trusted physician. In fact, he had been the best one serving

Alfred and Rio all these years.

“Calm down, Novia, I'm sure he will be fine," Gregory consoled.

Actually, Aphrodite had to hold back the tears with every ounce of her strength. What would she do if Grey dies?

Aside from the fact that the mafia group would crumble, she would definitely be affected as well.

Even though Grey could never be hers, she still enjoys seeing him every time.

Gregory's phone rang suddenly. He stared down at the screen and realised it was Alfred. He picked it up immediately.

‘Yes, Alfred. ls anything the matter over there?”

"Yes actually. It's under control.” Alfred responded.

"I'm going to kill that Caramel if I ever lay my hands on her!" he swore angrily.

"Calm down, Gregory. Don't be so tense. Nothing is going to happen to Grey."

Gregory groaned inwardly. "How are you sure of that? He has been indoors for thirty minutes and we haven't heard anything. I'm beginning to get curious. Hercules is the life of this mafia group. If he dies, we are all gone!"

"Calm down, Gregory. As I said, nothing will happen to Grey. We had it planned already. We knew something like this might happen again,” he revealed.

Gregory sat well and looked at Aphrodite. “Come over," he beckoned her forward.

Aphrodite moved closer with raised brows. "What's it?"

"Come and hear this. Alfred is telling me something about Grey,” he mouthed to her. "Ok, Alfred. Please, explain this better."

"Grey and I planned the whole thing. So, we accessed the poison that Caramel initially gave Grey. The one Grey gave to the dog. And guess what, we found the antidote to it.

Grey has taken some of it before we arrive at the party. So, he's going to be alright,” he explained.

"What! You mean Grey is fine?” Aphrodite was shocked.

"Yes, Novia. He's fine."

‘Then what's taking the doctor so long in the operating room?” Gregory stressed in a strained voice.

"It's part of the plan, Gregory. The doctor has to extract the remaining poison anyways but they also had to make it look as though he was in a critical condition. We needed to find who had killed Beatrice as the Hercules wanted," he revealed. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Aphrodite and Gregory were left in shock.
