Chapter 353: Lost memory
"What did you just say?" It felt as though Aphrodite didn’t hear correctly. There was no way Caramel would be saying that when she actually knew how much Grey loved her.
"I just said he never did. If he did, he wouldn't have killed my mother!’ She yelled out in frustration. ’Is that what you call love?"
Aphrodite was struck with shock over and over again. What was really happening?
Grey was standing in the garage when Aphrodite's car drove inside. His emotions were mixed. He felt very annoyed at Caramel but at the same time, he felt very sad. Would Caramel really plan to kill him? She might not like the fact that he was Hercules and yes, she had been pulling away after she discovered the truth. But would she really conspire against the enemy to kill him?
No, somehow, he didn't believe it. He needed to hear from the horse's mouth.
Alfred was standing beside him as the door of the car opened and Caramel walked out with an unknown man.
Aphrodite followed behind them.
Grey marvelled at Aphrodite's skill. He thought he had lost Caramel until he got a call from Aphrodite saying otherwise.
"Caramel?’ Grey called softly.
Caramel was forced to a stop in front of Grey and the look she gave him wasn't one he was associated with.
"What do you want from me now? Kill me too?" Caramel muttered.
Grey regarded her for a moment, "why did you decide to kill me? What have I done to deserve such a treatment?"
Caramel huffed as if she couldn't believe the question that was being asked. All she felt for Grey at that moment was indifference. Even though she didn't hate Grey. In fact, she couldn't even bring herself to do so but she was still angry at him for all he had done.
"You deserve everything that has ever happened to you. It's how bad you are!" Caramel yelled at him.
"What's happening? What are you saying?" Grey gave her skeptical brows. He didn't even understand what she was talking about. All he had ever done was protect her and he had never done otherwise.
"Mind telling me what you mean? Because I don't understand any of this.’
Caramel looked at Aphrodite as if passing across hidden information.
Aphrodite sighed and looked at Grey. "Caramel thinks that you killed her mother.’
"Think?" Caramel smirked. "He fucking killed her and I just came back here to have my revenge," she confessed. ’I just wonder why you aren't dead already."
Grey was struck to the ground for some minutes in total shock. "I didn't kill Beatrice, Caramel,’ he found his voice at last. "Why would I even do that? I've protected her, I've protected you. After all, we've been together all this while."
Caramel scoffed. "I knew you would say that. I was expecting it. You will always have your way around words, around everything. You pretend to be doing me good but you were just after my life!" She accused him.
Grey cooled down now. There was something else that he needed to iron out and without getting to the root of the matter, he had no cause to be angry.
