Secretly The Billionaire Boss by Debbie chocolate novel Chapter 317

Chapter 317: The interview

"The police? I thoughts" Maria started but he waved her to stop before she would say what she wasn't supposed to in front of Violet.

"Leave, and direct them to Hercules's office," Grey informed her.

Violet raised skeptical brows. "But the boss isn't in the office right now."

"Of course he is. Do as you have been instructed!" Maria chimed in.

Violet opened the door and eventually walked out.

Maria turned to look at Grey again. ’ I'm sorry about that, Boss. I was just shocked. But how come the police are looking for you? I thought you said your plan would put that on hold for a while?"

Grey nodded briefly. "Yes, I did say that but maybe they are here for a different reason. Maybe it isn't because of Victoria Skincare. So, I will meet them like Hercules and see what it's all about. Tell them that Grey isn't currently around if they asked," he picked a face mask from the desk and walked out of the office, leaving Maria behind.

He entered the office and was able to put on the facemask minutes before the knock sounded on the door.

He went to sit." Yes, come in."

There was a hesitation before the door opened and two men in uniform walked inside.

Their eyes went wide at the sight of Hercules. "Good morning, sir," one of them greeted. "We aren't here for you but for one of your workers. He is Grey Fox," he explained.

Grey regarded them for a moment. "Grey Fox is my worker. So, whatever you have with him should be discussed with me first. And lastly," he sat up.

"He's a major man in here."

The police's glanced at each other before they moved closer.

"Can we sit?" One of them demanded. They were both scared of the mighty Hercules and feared his presence.

"Sure," Grey gestured to the seats in front of him.

They sat.

"Grey was reported to us for the kidnapping of Mr. Lawrence and restricting his movement for a particular time,” one of the men explained.

"So, we have to take him away and have him punished for it. The most he can do is find a good lawyer and defend himself," the other added quickly.

Grey regarded them for a moment."! was there."

The police went dumb for a moment. "What do you mean by that?" They asked at the same time.

"That Lawrence was the one that broke the law. He didn't explain all these to you? How he kidnapped Grey Fox? And told the men to kill him?" He demanded in a thick voice that showed he was getting angry.

"What?" One of them exclaimed.

"You guys aren't even doing your job! Someone came to report such to you and you believed it right away without much investigation!" He sanctioned.

"But if that happened, he could have reported it. Why did he keep it to himself?" One of the men inquired.

Grey huffed. "Because I told him to. I could get you the proof if you want it. Grey Fox isn't the one you should be getting, it's Lawrence because he would come for Grey until he succeeds in killing him."

The police went quiet for a moment before they stood up. They were short of words. Also, they couldn't arrest Hercules, and well, what he said made a lot of sense.

"I hope so. Just make sure the men keep watching."

"Alright, boss. I will give you any information when I get any," he assured.

Grey nodded once. "Talk to you later," he finished up and hung up.

The door opened again but this time, Don and Richard walked inside.

Grey walked out to them. "Where's Mercury?"

"She's successfully in your house and some men are staying watch over her," Don responded.

Grey nodded once. "We will need Protos Pubblicita help this time," he muttered to himself, got his phone, and placed a call to Maria. She picked it up immediately.

"Hello, Boss.”

"Meet me in my office immediately. We need to discuss," he said and hung up.

The three walked out of the office with no one around. They entered Grey's office. Almost immediately, Maria opened the door and walked inside.

"Sir, is there anything you want me to do for you?"

Grey nodded briefly. "We need to interview a woman. This time around, we will be needing the Protos Pubblicita logo, in fact, it must feature in all of our magazines because I will be claiming Victoria Skincare after the success of this plan," he announced.

Maria loved the idea and smiled slightly.
