Secretly The Billionaire Boss by Debbie chocolate novel Chapter 26

Chapter 26: Letting the secretary know her place “Thank you!” Grey said into the receiver and dropped the call. He was starting to get tired of receiving calls. He stood up to get lunch. It was lunchtime but he had been receiving customer calls.

The only reason why he would reconsider his decision of telling Alfred to take him to another department was that Alfred provided him with an office, so he would have privacy.

He entered the cafeteria and ordered Hamburger with Americano. He settled down to eat, then remembered that he had left his phone in his office.

He hadn‘t seen Jane since that morning and he wondered what she was up to. Though, he knew that Alfred would deal with her accordingly.

Within minutes, he was done eating and decided to resume office quickly. Just as he entered the lobby, it was Cindy that he saw.

She was coming out of the manager‘s room. She stopped to look at him, shocked. Grey saw her but pretended as if he didn‘t.

She thought he didn‘t and inclined her head to another side. She used her hair as a shield as Grey walked away. He wondered however why she was there at that moment. Though, it was suspicious. If it was a normal day, Cindy would have come over to rant.

Grey opened the door and stared at Jane and Alfred. He wondered why they were waiting for him in the office.

Grey stepped inside and noticed that Jane‘s head was bowed towards Alfred. Also, her palm was over her left side. It looked like Alfred was scolding her.

“Welcome Grey,” Alfred greeted as he closed the door and moved closer.

“Is there anything you need?” Grey asked, and pretended that he didn‘t know anything. He moved to his seat.

“Grey, Jane told me everything that transpired between you two and I‘m just scolding her. Though, I think she will have to go home.”

Jane looked up quickly with eyes gone wide.” What do you mean by going home?” Alfred looked at her for a moment. “You did make a deal with Grey, didn‘t you? You were supposed to let him lose his job. But tables have turned and you will be the one to lose it.”

“Oh my!” Jane gasped.” Please, I‘m sorry! Please, don‘t sack me! I‘m so sorry,” she pleaded quickly. Grey chuckled.” I told you, Jane, didn‘t I? That I‘m not someone you can mess with.” “You will respect Grey as you respect me in this company!” Alfred yelled at her and she jerked back in fear. Jane turned to Grey quickly. “Please, don‘t sack me. Please, plead with Mr. Alfred on my behalf, ” she said with tears in her eyes.

Grey regarded her for a moment, feeling pity for her. “I will on one condition. You won‘t lose

your job if you will change your behavior towards me in this company. But if you keep acting like a bastard, you will need to go home one day.” “I won‘t! I promise! I will never insult you again!” She promised. “And no one must know about this. It must be between you and me. If third parties know about this, you won‘t only lose your job, you might lose your life as well,” he muttered thickly. Jane‘s eyes widened as she nodded quickly.” I promise.” “You can leave then,” Alfred barked and she sauntered out of the office.” She‘s such a pain in the ass.”

Grey smiled. “Thank you for helping Avery‘s company.”

Alfred reciprocated his smile.” It‘s ok. I‘m glad I could help. Oh, do you remember it‘s this night? It‘s auction night and Aphrodite will be around. It‘s also the right time to see her that won‘t arise suspiciously,” he explained.
