Secretly The Billionaire Boss Chapter 470
Chapter 470: Changed
Within minutes, Grey was inside Avery’s room and gently placed her on the bed.
Two men came over to show him another door inside the suite so he wouldn’t have to pass the main entrance and risk people looking at them weirdly.
Just as he pulled himself up, he realised that Avery was holding unto his clothes firmly.He looked at her for a moment.
She was asleep while her right fist held the clothes in check.
“Don’t go,” she said softly as if she was somnambulating.
Grey didn’t know actually if that was the case or maybe she was just dreaming.
However, he secured a place beside her.It was getting even late now and he thought he would be on the evening plane back to Ravello but that was no longer possible.
As long as he wanted to leave, there were several reasons why he shouldn’t.He just couldn’t leave Avery in the state that she was in.
Even though Maximo was on his way, Grey felt he still had to stay behind.
Besides, he had to speak with her.
If he leave, Avery would call him out again.So, staying was the best option at least, till Avery wakes up.
A soft knock sounded on the door.
Grey reasoned it might be Maximo.He hesitated as he watched Avery for a moment before he slowly pulled her hand away.He succeeded and Avery only stirred before she went back to sleep.He released a sigh and went to the door.
Upon opening it, he realised it wasn’t Maximo but two of the maids in the hotel that he had called to change Avery’s clothes.
“Good day, sir,” they greeted in unison.
Grey nodded and stepped aside for them to enter.
“Get down to work and inform me when you are done,” he spoke with authority in the air.
The maids bowed slightly and moved towards Avery.
Grey stepped out.He had no business inside anyways.
“Where is Avery?”
A voice entered his thoughts suddenly.
Grey looked up and realised it was Maximo.He released a sigh.
“She’s inside.I had the maids dress her up since she was soaked,” he explained.
Maximo regarded him for a moment.
“You are soaked as well.I think you should return home.”
“I will but I’m trying to buy time.Perhaps, Avery would wake up soon.So, we can talk.You do know that I must return to Ravello as soon as possible and I wouldn’t even be here if you hadn’t made it compulsory.”
Maximo grunted and seemed to swallow whatever words he had in his mouth at that moment.He looked away for a moment as if he was currently cooking up things to say.
“What really happened? I don’t think any of my men in Italy would want to mess with me.Who could it be then? I specifically instructed no one to touch Avery,” he explained.
Grey’s head snapped at him actually because of his last statement.
“You seemed to be so concerned about her welfare.I didn’t know you had specifically told your men to step aside as if she’s the first lady,” he joked.
Maximo laughed.
“Come on, Grey.”
Grey watched his expression for a moment with a sly smile.
“ I think there’s something you are hiding from me.Isn’t there? “Grey, it’s nothing.”
Grey laughed shortly and looked away.
