CHAPTER 198

Chapter 198: Fueled Grey’s head almost flew off, and his hand went hard over the phone. “what? Where the fuck are you now?”

Beatrice sobbed softly.”I’m at home.”

Grey hung up quickly and pulled out of the company at a fast speed that it looked like he might get involved in an accident anytime soon but he knew his way around already. Though, somehow, he found it difficult to believe Caramel was really kidnapped. So, he placed a call to her instantly but her number was unavailable.

His heart felt as though it was going to stop. Caramel of all people? And then he wondered how that could have happened. Caramel wasn’t involved in him in any way. And she didn’t even know he was the Hercules.

How come then? And who could have kidnapped her? Well, Giovanni doesn’t know who he was and Hattie doesn’t know he was Hercules either. That aside, he wasn’t even married to Caramel. So, there was no way she would use her to get him. He soon pulled up in the front yard and got out of the car. Beatrice was standing in front of the front door,still silently sobbing. Grey hurried closer. “Wait, I’m not getting something. How did this happen? How did you know she was kidnapped?”

Beatrice didn’t say anything and instead stretched out a piece of paper for him. Grey took it and read through it. The words on it were short.

Come to the address below this message if you wish to save Caramel. You have just three days.

Grey raised skeptical brows at Beatrice. “Is this letter for you or me?”

Beatrice shrugged slightly. She was still sobbing.” I don’t know. The security guard gave me this. He said someone dropped it. Though, there’s another on the table inside. I couldn’t check that because I

was scared of looking inside it,” she revealed.

Grey walked inside, without another word. The second letter was really on the table. He took it and broke the cover.

The words on it were longer than the first one he read. That aside, it showed who the sender really was- Beatrice,

So, Grey knew it was really from Hattie.

For some minutes, after reading the letter, Grey felt incoherent. He felt very confused and then, shocked.

How could Caramel be Beatrice’s daughter?

Caramel and Beatrice seemed to love each other but he didn’t believe there was a stronger bond.

Also, Beatrice had just a son. And, Caramel has a mother. What was happening?

Also, how did Hattie lay her hand on this kind of information? “What did it say?” Beatrice asked suddenly, jerking him out of his thoughts when nothing else could have.

Grey stretched out the paper. “This is for you, you should read it.”

Beatrice took it with shaking hands and she seemed to zoom out of the world after reading the content on the paper. She looked up with eyes that had gone wide and dark. “What does that mean? Your daughter is Caramel? You told me your child was dead and he was a male.”

Beatrice shook hier head briefly.” I don’t have a daughter. I don’t understand what Hattie means by this letter. There was no way I could,” she pulled to a stop suddenly, as realization hit even harder.

“What?” Grey probed in.

Beatrice looked away as if trying to fully access something “I was pregnant two years ago before I gave birth to a boy,” she looked at Grey.” But she died a few moments after she was born. Yes! She was a girl and I held her in my arms before I was informed that she gave up the ghost,” she explained.

Grey furrowed his brows, as realization dawned on him. What if Caramel was the child? “What if she didn’t die? Did you bury the corpse?”

Beatrice nodded briefly. “I did,” she responded with confusion. Grey looked away. There was a trick behind something and he was going to find out. But at that moment, his main priority was finding Caramel. “Hattie wants to see you and she’s going to. We need to get Caramel out whether she’s your daughter or not,” he stated defiantly, his blood going wild with anger.

Beatrice nodded briefly. Aside from the shocking news she had just received, she loved Caramel like her own and she doesn’t want anything to happen to her. “I will be ready for anything.” Grey placed a call to Don who picked up immediately. “Meet me at home now!” He said quickly before Don would exchange pleasantries. Grey placed another call to Gregory. He picked up after the second ring. “Hello, Hercules.”

“There’s a problem and we need to see now. When will you be less busy?”

Gregory smashed his lips as he thought about it. I’m not in the city currently but I will be back by tomorrow morning. Is it something urgent?”

Grey sighed.” Very. But I can wait until tomorrow.”

“Alright.”

Grey looked at Beatrice. “You will be seeing Hattie today. Send a message to her that you are prepared to see her,” he ordered. “Alright, I will do that,” Beatrice responded and walked up the stairs, probably

to her room to

retrieve her phone. A knock sounded on the door. It opened immediately and Don walked in, accompanied by Richard as usual. Grey turned to look at them, a dark frown on his face. He was quickly strategizing the best way to rescue Caramel earlier. That aside, he needed to confirm that Caramel was truly kidnapped.

“Boss, you sounded so urgent. Has anything happened?” Don required.

Grey nodded briefly.” Caramel is missing. She got kidnapped,” he announced.

Don raised confused brows. “Wait! What? Kidnapped? That’s not true!” He stated. “I saw her one hour ago. She was drunk and some men came to take her home.” He revealed. Grey felt a quick surge of anger. “And you let them take her away?” He was shocked. The men must have been from Hattie.

Don nodded briefly.” She was drunk and they were her guardians,” he explained.

“You numb!” Grey screamed at him, his muscles contracting.” They kidnapped her! How could you let them take her? You could have called me!” His voice was deep and laced with anger.

If Richard hadn’t moved in between them, he might have lurched forward to punch Don in the

face.Content is property © .
