Secretly The Billionaire Boss by Debbie chocolate novel Chapter 231

Chapter 231: Truth needed

“If there’s nothing else to say, then I will leave,” Grey stood immediately and walked out of the meeting room with Charles and Maria.

David felt speechless for a moment, even after the other executive had left.

“I knew it!” One had said. “We should be careful before David puts us into trouble,” they stated before they all walked out as well.

David didn’t know that Grey could do something so tangible. He had always thought he was useless and even senseless.

Well, there was nothing to do but accept the deal. Hercules was strict and stubborn with things. He wouldn’t change his mind no matter how much he pleaded. So, all he was going to do was work harder so that he wouldn’t have to apologize to Grey.

No matter what, Grey was still not up to his standard and would never be. He wouldn’t stoop so low as apologizing to someone like Grey.

“Don’t forget the assignment, Maria. And let me know after you’ve decided.”

Maria nodded briefly.” I will get back to you by tomorrow.”

They entered the elevator.

“Are you coming to work tomorrow?”

“No, I have to be somewhere with Charles,” he glanced at Charles. “I’m leaving soon as well. Is Caramel still around?”

“No, she left already. She will resume fully tomorrow,” Maria responded.

Grey nodded once and stepped out of the elevator. The others followed suit and they entered the office.” I will be leaving now then. I have no purpose to be around.”

Well, yes but we have an appointment in less than a few minutes with Mr. Lawrence. I thought you could attend to him. If not, I would have to reschedule the appointment as Miss Caramel isn’t around,” she explained.

Grey stopped in his tracks as the name rang a bell. “Lawrence? What does he sell?”

“Well, he owns a delivery company. And he wants to feature on our front page,” she revealed.

Grey turned to look at Maria, with eyes that had gone wide and dark.” Lawrence?” He repeated as if he was tasting the sound of it.

“Do you know him?” Charles demanded when he noticed the expression that Grey was giving.

Grey nodded briefly. “I do know him very well. Lawrence used to be my boss,” he laughed and moved to sit. “In fact, he denied me my last salary. If I wasn’t a fighter, Lawrence wouldn’t let me have it. Apparently, he was working with Seth.”

“Oh Seth,” Charles nodded briefly.” So, Lawrence is here for a deal? You should refuse to have business with him,” he suggested.

Grey thought about it for a moment. Let him in when he comes. I will attend to him,” he decided.

Maria nodded. “Will you like to have something before he comes? Any food or snacks?”
