Chapter 383: Goodbyes

Grey stepped back instead and smiled. "It's ok, actually. I understand you perfectly, so you don't need to explain. If you can be ready tomorrow morning, I will show you where your mother is. Also, I'm already working with Alfred to get you a nice house so you can leave here and wait elsewhere for your mother,” he explained.

Caramel regarded him for a moment. 'Can I stay here?"

Grey raised skeptical brows at her. "What?”

"I want to be here until my mother is alright. Then we can leave.’

Grey smirked. "Why would you want to do that? You've already made your thoughts known to me. There's no reason to pull back. We will do as I have said.*

Caramel sighed. ‘I'm sorry for hurting you. Grey and I don't want you to continue to think of it."

"It doesn't work like that, Caramel. You can't just dish out what you want at any time. It has been finalised. You will get your house and leave here. There are no more options,’ he stated strongly.

Caramel shook her head briefly. Alright but I'm sorry. I hope you can forgive me."

Grey smiled at this. "I have Caramel, a long time ago. Now, if you will excuse me. I have a place to prepare for,’ he said casually and walked inside.

Caramel looked at him until he was out of sight and sobbed quietly. The fact that she loved him so much and it hurt her so much to see them part that way.

But she didn't even know what she was supposed to do at that moment. Everything felt so dizzy to her. She was almost losing the meaning of life itself. With Grey and her mother gone, she felt unlike herself.

Grey had decided and there was no way she would be able to change his mind. But instead of making him spend more money on her, she would rather go back to her father's house.

She rushed inside as the tears streamed down her face, almost blinding her. She didn't even know exactly why she was crying so hard or why she felt so heartbroken.

She was the one that sent Grey away. She was the one that yelled at him and told him that she didn't want to have anything to do with him. So, why does it hurt so much? Was it because she desperately wanted to stay with him?

Yes, she would have if she wasn't so scared of what the future held for them. She didn’t want to lose her mother and she couldn't bear to be in danger again. Staying with Grey was dancing on a canoe in the middle of the Atlantic ocean. Having a ship on the

Atlantic ocean can be risky on its own, talkless of a canoe. So, it doesn't matter if Grey could protect her or would always come to her rescue. The danger would never subside, it would never stop.

And this was what she feared the most.

She packed a few of the dresses that Grey got for her and walked out of the room.

When she entered the living room, Grey wasn't in and she was grateful for that because she wasn't ready to see him at that moment, not when she couldn't even stop crying no matter how hard she tried.

She tends to move out but one of Grey's was suddenly blocking her path.

"What are you doing? Let me go,’ she begged them.

The man regarded her for a moment with a suspicious gaze. It was as if he was suspecting that something had happened inside.

Well, something had happened but it wasn't what he was thinking.

"I'm just leaving. I didn't do anything to Grey, I swear!" She yelled in frustration but the man wouldn't let her pass through.

"I have to inform the boss first,” he voiced out eventually and before Caramel could blink, another man was speaking to Grey through the telephone.

The front door opened within minutes and Grey ran towards Caramel.

"Is something wrong? Where are you going?’ Grey sounded so concerned.

Caramel didn't even know how she was supposed to start talking. And a lump suddenly appeared in her throat.

When Grey saw that Caramel had been crying and instead of talking, the tears were streaming down the more, he pulled her into a bear hug.

Caramel cried aloud and hugged him back.

The men turned aside quickly and moved away to give them privacy.

"Did something happen, Caramel?" He asked again and pulled back slightly to look at her. He slowly wiped away her tears.

She shook her head briefly. "Nothing but I'm going to my father.”

Grey gathered his forehead at her. "What?"

"I know you've done a lot but I won't let you do more than you have done. I'm going to my father's house. He has been calling me home anyways. I will stay with my father till Beatrice is ready to leave with me again,” she explained.

Grey regarded her for a moment. "Call me if you need anything. Caramel. I will respond as fast as I can."

Caramel managed a smile. "Thank you. Grey, but as you have said, I've made a decision and I'm not going to turn away from it. That's not how things work.”

Grey tried to smile but failed. He nodded instead. "I understand but are we seeing tomorrow morning? I can drive you to Beatrice."

Caramel shook her head briefly. "No, I will speak with Alfred. He would help me out. You don't need to disturb yourself and_,” she swallowed harder to pull down the lump that had suddenly appeared in her throat. "We may never see each other again. I will avoid you as much as I can."

Grey managed a nod. ‘Just take care of yourself."

Caramel’s smile widened. 'Goodbye Grey, goodbye Hercules, " she muttered and walked past him.

Grey stood still for a moment as if it wasn't happening. What was he supposed to do?

Something is not meant to be. There was no need to go back. And he had an auction to prepare for.

He walked back inside and placed a call to Alfred. Alfred picked up after the second ring.

"Hello Hercules,” he dragged.

"I'm sorry for disturbing you but I just want to tell you that you shouldn't bother with the house anymore. It's all settled.”

"All settled? What happened?”

"Well, as I said, it's for the betterment. Just show Caramel to her mother's room tomorrow. We will talk later then." Alfred sighed but he knew more than press the matter.Alright, goodnight Hercules.”
