Chapter 365: Fueled
Grey walked inside the living room and hesitated as he watched Caramel who was the only one in the room. Alfred seemed to have gone somewhere.
Caramel was in deep thought and didn't notice that Grey was inside.
"Caramel?" Grey called softly.
Caramel went into a sudden shock at the sound of her name. She turned around slowly and her eyes went wide with shock at the sight of him. She stood up slowly as her body shivered.
Grey smiled softly and spread out his hands as a means to beckon her closer.
Caramel rushed into his arms. "I'm so sorry, I really am. I didn't mean to do that to you."
Grey stroked her back slowly. "It's ok. Everything is going to be fine."
Caramel pulled back slowly and looked at him. "You don't hate me? You don't hate me for trying to kill you?"
Grey shook his head briefly and wiped the tears off her face. "I don't. I will never hate you. Besides, you will never hurt me. It was because you lost your memory," he explained on her behalf.
Caramel hugged him even tighter, still sobbing quietly. Her heart felt very heavy and her head was reeling.
Grey felt a surge of happiness slipped into him once again. Caramel was eventually back with him. Though, he had a lot to ask her, especially about the baby but there was going to be time for it. He just wanted to enjoy the moment while it lasted. At least, there would be no poisoning anymore.
"Richard is on his way here," a voice said suddenly.
Grey looked back, his arm still around Caramel as if he was scared of leaving her. "Seriously?"
Alfredo nodded once." Yes. And when he gets here, we will be able to go on with our interrogation. Caramel has told me what she knows."
Grey pulled Caramel apart to look at her. "Is Beatrice really dead?"
Caramel couldn't talk as the words were stuck in her throat. Instead, she nodded her head briefly as she burst into another round of sobs.
Grey felt the pain deep down in her heart. It felt like thousands of nails were thrust into him. He patted Caramel as she cried the more against his chest, dampening his shirt.
He gently led her to the chair and pulled her into a close hug while Caramel continued to sob. "It's ok, darling," he whispered as he continued to stroke her back.
There was a sudden knock on the door. It opened almost immediately and a man walked inside. "Boss, the men have arrived," he announced.
"Let them in," Alfred ordered.
The man bowed slightly and walked out.
Alfred looked at Grey. "That's definitely Richard," he informed him.
Grey nodded briefly. "I need to find out what really happened."
The door opened after some minutes and two men walked inside while pulling a man who was blindfolded.
