Secretly The Billionaire Boss

Chapter 525: Best women

"We are leaving immediately! Find a way to distract them so that I can safely escape," Grey ordered.

The man nodded and walked out.

Grey looked at the unconscious Avery.Maybe he was selfish but he didn't even reason calling her parent over.His phone rang suddenly.It was Maria.

Grey got off the bed and took his shirt.He walked out of the room before he picked up the call.

"Hello boss," Maria's voice boomed from the other line.

Just as Grey moved to his right side, Avery's parents and one of Grey's men walked past him, towards Avery's room.It turned out that the man intentionally misled them into going elsewhere.

"Is everything alright, Maria? How is the public taking the news?" He inquired, as he managed to wear his shirt.

"Well, I have a bad news." Grey hesitated before he entered the elevator.

There was no one in the elevator with him.

"Did something happen? The public didn't accept the explanation?"

"No, boss.That's not the case.Someone published something about you, an hour after we did.Well, I would say we were lucky.Though, our sales seem to have declined a bit.If we hadn't reacted like that, it might have had a bad impact on the business," she explained.

Grey released a sigh.

"What was released?"

"Your real name and the fact that you are working in Protos Pubblicita.In fact, there are some reporters here already."

"Giovanni," Grey muttered. He was actually sure he was him. But he was grateful that he was fast enough.

If he had been very slow with it because of the event that happened yesterday, it might have been very bad now.

The public might be forced to choose between Giovanni and Grey.But he knew what he was supposed to do.

"Alright, keep it cool.Like I said, I might not come to work for a while.I will call you when I need you."

"Alright boss."

Grey hung up and walked into the garage.He got inside his car and drove out of the company.He pulled the car to a sudden stop as curiosity got the best of him.

Several people stood by the car and stared up at something he couldn't comprehend.

When he turned towards it, he saw it.

There was a big billboard, with names on it.

‘Hercules's real name is Grey Fox’.

Grey's jaw dropped.

When the fuck did they change what was on the billboard just the night? Grey shook his head briefly, just as his phone rang.

It was Douglas, one of the special members.

He hesitated and remembered that someone was really calling his name the night before when he was walking out of the hall but he was too focused to reply.

The phone stopped ringing but started ringing almost immediately.

Grey picked it up.

"Hello, Douglas."

"Hello, Hercules.It's a pity you left the party earlier.We had some issues to discuss with you," he revealed.

Grey released a sigh.

"I'm so sorry about that, Douglas.But I'm kind of indisposed at this moment.When do you plan on leaving?"

"Tomorrow afternoon but the ex-King of the world has stuff to hand over to you.He will be leaving tomorrow as well but in the morning." Grey reasoned it quickly.

"Then, I will see him tonight."

"Alright.Let's talk by then as well," he finished and the line went off.

Grey drove to his house in the city and discovered that his men were around already.

They all bowed the moment he drove inside.

Grey went inside for a long bath.He felt very dirty.

And then he remembered that he had to change his bandage.So, he would be going back to the hospital.

But at first, he planned to stop by Aphrodite.He got dressed in gray trousers and a white T-shirt.

There were two men in front of Aphrodite's room and they bowed their heads briefly when Grey got near.

When Grey entered, the first person he saw was Charles.He said he was going to take a nap the night before but he was already at the hospital the second day.But it felt like Grey placed her second on his list.

How could he not have spent more than 20 minutes with her? Damn! He was just confused.

Who was he supposed to leave? Avery or Aphrodite.

"Charles," he muttered.

Charles looked back quickly.

Recognizing him, he stood.

"Good morning."

"Good morning.How is she doing? What did the doctor say?"

"Hopefully, she had no internal head injury.The doctor said she's supposed to wake up today and everything would be alright," Charles explained.

Grey released a sigh, a smile tugging at his lips.It was a piece of great news anyways.

"That's actually good.I'm so glad."

Charles nodded once, smiling as well.

"The doctor gave her some aesthetic, strong ones.But she will be fine."

Maybe that was why Grey wasn't as bothered about Aphrodite as he was with Avery.He couldn't even think about Avery's condition.

The fact that she might not survive the process, was what he dreaded so much.

What about the fact that she could have some impairment? The thought of it felt like a dagger pressed to his neck.

"I'm so happy about the news for real."

Charles regarded him for a moment.

"What are you going to do about the news? It's only a matter of time before Giovanni posts your picture." Grey sighed.

"I will definitely think of something.I will be meeting with the elders tonight.Then maybe we can arrange a meeting among the members and discuss.I'm sure Aphrodite would have been better by then."Charles nodded once. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

"How is Avery?" Grey regarded him for a moment.

"How did you know about her?"

"Alfred explained little to me.I actually made the call to them so that they could stop you before you make a mistake you would never forgive yourself for." Grey shrugged briefly.

"Well, the three women I love in my entire life seem to be moving farther from me.Caramel left because she was worried about something like this.I don't believe it's happening to these two as well.Aphrodite is on the sick bed because of me and_," he swallowed harder.

"Avery might actually die."

Aphrodite opened her eyes slowly.She had woken up a few minutes ago and had been hearing Grey and Charles's conversation.
