Chapter 272: Dead or not
Grey didn't reply.
Caramel regarded him for a moment. "If you don't reply to me, it's ok but I will find out on my own. I've seen your tattoo, just as I saw Alex and you were able to confirm who he was."
"Cara_" Grey started but she cut him off.
"I know, you don’t have to ask me. You don’t have to tell me otherwise as well. Alex kept it a secret from me and he wasn't so careless. That aside, he has been in this game for a long time. You were the one that asked me if he had a tattoo and I confirmed it for you. You revealed Pablo!" She pointed an accusing finger at him.
Grey eyes twinkled but he said no word.
"I'm going to tell him you have a tattoo too. Then maybe I will try to send him the real strand of hair," she threatened, not that she was going to do it anyways. She only wanted to do anything to get Grey to speak. Though, if he really was what She thought he was, then maybe Caramel wasn't saved. But, she knew that Grey would not want to hurt her.
"What the fuck are you doing!" Beatrice yelled suddenly, angry now at her rudeness. "Caramel, you have to leave now!” She ordered.
"I will but I will do everything I've said," she affirmed and turned to leave.
"Caramel-” Grey called suddenly before she was able to step out. 'You will get to know the truth when it's the right time."
Caramel face squeezed even harder. "I’m going to stop doing that, Grey. Because it's never going to get even better. There’s never going to be the right time. You will always keep it from me. I trust you but you don’t trust me! You don't think I’m going to keep your secret!" She yelled in annoyance. Grey sighed. Maybe she was telling the truth. He did trust her but it wasn't enough. He almost went ballistic when he heard that Caramel could have been working with Alex against him. Doesn't that mean he didn't entirely trust her?
"I'm doing all this to protect you, Caramel. You have to understand."
Caramel let out a sigh. "Fine then! I won't do anything with Alex and I was just bluffing. But there’s something I want you to know, You can protect me, can't you? Even without me knowing. Even when I didn't know anything about you, I was still haunted, wasn’t I?"
Grey sighed again. That was right again. Damn! Caramel was saying the right thing.
"As I said, I’m not going to do anything but we are totally done, Grey. We are!" 1
"Don't be like that, Caramel!" Beatrice scolded.
"Let her go!" Grey said quickly.
Caramel was on the verge of tears as she turned to look at Grey for the last time. She didn't believe that Grey would be willing to lose everything they shared and not be hesitant about it. It only shows her that she doesn't even mean anything to him. He doesn't even love her. The thought of it brought fresh tears to her face as she hurried towards the car.
Maybe she shouldn't have threatened him like that. Sure, Guys don't love it when they feel threatened. She shouldn't have tampered with their relationship but she was right. At a side, she was, wasn't she?
She cried bitterly as she drove off, with no destination in mind and she didn't want to go home. She just wanted to get wasted.
She pulled the car to a sudden stop and cried her heart out. She slept off and could only slightly witness someone scooping her up. She was really still feeling sleepy and the tears glued her eyes together.
But as he placed her on the bed, Caramel saw who it was vividly. It was Grey.
