Secretly The Billionaire Boss by Debbie chocolate novel Chapter 25

Chapter 25: A threat Angrily, Grey walked inside Avery‘s room. She was asleep when he walked inside. He stopped slightly to take her features in especially since she was in a transparent night dress. She looked very beautiful and perfect in all places.

Placing the bag in a corner, since he didn‘t want to disrupt Avery‘s arrangements while she was asleep, knowing fully well that she would start a ruckus the moment she was up.

He slipped under the blanket beside her. She mumbled something inaudible and turned away from him.

Grey closed his eyes, as the event of the day replayed itself in his head.

A scream and Grey felt something hard push him off the bed until his body painfully collided with the floor. He knew what the commotion was all about before he even turned.

“What did you think you were doing? Why are you on my bed?” She yelled.

Grey groaned and rubbed the back of his head. The blanket was still around him as Avery had pushed him with it.

“Avery, you are going to break my bones,” he stressed.

“What the fuck did you think you were doing? What audacity did you have to sleep on my bed? “She yelled. Grey sighed and stood while packing the blanket as well. “I’m your husband, remember?” Avery scoffed. “Husband my foot! You will stop daydreaming!” She huffed and got off the bed.” As far as I‘m concerned, you are my enemy and I don‘t want to have anything to do with

you.”

Grey turned to look at her. ” Will you rather have something to do with Chris? The guy that lies?”

Avery watched him for a moment.” You don‘t know what you are saying! And never bad mouth Chris because he‘s way better than you,” she started towards the bathroom but

stopped suddenly when she realized that Grey was still watching her. “You had better leave this room before I come out or I will kill you!” She threatened. Grey sighed.” Did you get the contract from J.K company?” He asked just as Avery was about to enter the bathroom. She froze on the spot and turned to look at him. “How did you know that?” Her eyes registered shock.

Grey smiled. “I told you that I would_”

“Stop bluffing!” Avery cut in quickly. “I know you did nothing. It was dad‘s father that helped me and not you. I wonder who the liar is between you and Chris.”

“No, Avery,” Grey started again but Avery shut the door with a loud slam, startling him for a moment.

Grey sighed and decided to have his bath in the visitor‘s room. He took the suit that he would be wearing Fortunately enough, his in–laws were not in the living room.

It was when he came out that he saw that breakfast had been served and Avery was already

eating

Lucy was also on the seat and Grey knew better than not to move closer. So, he went to his usual seat.

“I heard that Alfred signed the contract eventually,” Lucy started the conversation.

Avery smiled. “Yes, grandpa.”

Grey typically glanced back to see if there was someone behind him that she was referring to. Well, Jane has been acting weird since he resumed yesterday, especially when she discovered he would be the office manager, instead of the manager that he had initially selected.

“I‘m talking to you, dummy!” She spat.

Grey stared, shocked. He wondered about the effrontery she had. She wouldn‘t even be there at that moment if he said the word.

“What is it?” He asked instead while trying his best to be cool. “I‘m sure you have manners and you know it was wrong for you to bathe inside the office like that.”

Jane rolled her eyes. ” Look at who is talking to me about manners? What is this that you have done?” She moved closer and submitted a file in front of him.” See, this customer gave us two stars because of you. What the fuck did you say to her?”

Grey stared down at it for a moment. “Are you kidding me? I didn‘t pick up female calls yesterday. The four people that called in were all guys,” he argued.

“How then, do you explain this? Are you trying to lie? You are trying to run the business as you like? Why? Because the CEO demoted you?”

“You will watch how you talk to me!” Grey hushed at once. “Or what?” Jane smirked.” Do you know that I‘m your senior in this place and I earn far better than you do?”

Grey huffed.” Just leave my office, I have no time for this!” “You better explain all this to me or you will be sacked! I‘m going to put in a word for Mr. Alfred and you will be sacked!” She threatened.

Grey smiled.” Why don‘t you try that and let’s see what will happen. We shall know who will lose this so–called job. You or me.” 1
