Secretly The Billionaire Boss Chapter 423
Chapter 423: New billionaire president
Linda was worried sick after hearing the news that Hercules had been killed.She had trouble sleeping the night before.She had even tried Grey’s number but it wasn’t reachable.
Could it be true? Could Grey really be dead? Linda couldn’t believe what she had heard, and she prayed that it was just a rumor.
She knew that Hercules was a powerful man, but he was also a target for many of his enemies.
As she thought about the possibility of losing him, she couldn’t help but worry about her daughter, Emily, who had fallen in love with Hercules.
Linda knew that Emily was aware of Hercules’ status as a mafia lord, and she didn’t want her to be involved in any of it.
She had tried to warn her daughter about the dangers of being with someone like Hercules, but Emily was head over heels in love with him.
Just as Linda was about to break down in tears, Emily rushed into the room, “Mom, are you alright?”
She hesitated as she read through Linda’s expression.
Linda let out an exasperated sigh.
“I’m only thinking about Grey.How could he die like that? I don’t feel good about it.”
Her face beamed with excitement.
“Mom, guess what? Hercules isn’t dead!”
Linda was stunned by this revelation, “What are you talking about, Emily? The news is all over the place.Grey was burnt to death! His car exploded! Why would you say he’s not dead?”
Emily sat and looked at Linda.
“He’s not, I’m telling you, mom.I know what I’m talking about.Grey would have died, alright but I saved him,” she explained, ”
“How did it happen? Tell me about it.Where is Grey at this moment.”
“I don’t know but the last time I saw him, he was at his house.Aphrodite and the rest of the elders even came to see him.Actually, this is what happened,” she adjusted and waited for Linda to get prepared.
“I saw that some men were spying on him.So, I called him to tell him.I wanted him to fall in love with me after rescuing me.So, I planned to have some guys harass me and Grey was supposed to rescue me.Just as he walked out of the car, it exploded.
“Are you for real?”
Linda’s eyes went wide with shock.
“You did what? Plan some men to harass you so that Grey would fall in love with you? That’s not ok! How could you think like that?”
Emily rolled her eyes.
“Well, thanks to it, Grey is still alive.Were you not the one worried about him just now?”
Linda was relieved to hear that Hercules was alive and well, but she was also worried about Emily’s involvement in all this.
She couldn’t imagine what could have happened if Emily had been caught, but she also knew that her daughter was brave and resourceful.
For the first time, Linda was proud of her daughter and even though she hated what she did, she couldn’t help but acknowledge her.
If she hadn’t done that, Grey would be dead already.
Linda hugged Emily tightly, “I’m so proud of you, Emily.But please promise me that you won’t get involved in any more of this.You could have been hurt, or worse.”
Emily nodded, “I promise, Mom.I won’t do anything like this again.But I just couldn’t stand the thought of anything happening to Hercules.He’s important to me too.”
Linda smiled, feeling grateful for her daughter’s bravery and loyalty, ”I know, Emily.He’s important to all of us.”
Emily has been thinking about it a lot.She even discovered that Aphrodite loved Grey.
Who knows, Grey could love her as well.
There was no need to get in between them.
Asides, it could actually cause her death because Aphrodite was very powerful.
And what position would she leave her mom if she died? So, she has decided to let Grey go.
He was beyond her reach anyways.
It was time for the billionaire meeting and Giovanni was very happy.
He would be able to be the new billionaire boss that day.
Jamal wouldn’t be able to stop him, considering the fact that Grey was dead.
The driver pulled to a stop at the venue of the meeting.
One of Giovanni’s men opened the door and Giovanni walked out.
He entered the hall and noticed that almost everyone was around already.
Only a few members like Jamal, Gregory, and Alfred were missing.
