Chapter 45: Unexpected kiss
“I’m sorry, Grey I’m really sorry. It was all my fault, Luciano expressed deeply
Grey turned away quickly, as the bravely wiped off the tears that had suddenly seeped from his lashes He didn’t know those times He didn’t know the reason why his father was so harsh on him was because of the mafia group he spearheaded Yel, Grey never haled his father and it hurts him so much to realize he was gone forever
“I’ve looked everywhere for you, Grey, I’ve really gone through a lot of trouble to locate you. I thought you died when the car exploded,” he explained.
Grey look a deep breath to calm his nerves Then, he slowly turned to look at Luciano. “You should get up.
he told him
Luciano looked up at Grey “I can never alone for my son,” he expressed bitterly
Grey sighed and moved closer to pull him up “You shouldn’t knee to me You used to be my uncle and well, you still are,” he admitted
Luciano shook his head slightly I must bow to you now, Grey You are Hercules I just swore my allegiance to you and I promise to serve you till i die,’ he muttered thickly
Grey managed to smile even though it was faintly “I guess this is the reason why you knew Aphrodite was Novia
Luciano smiled again “You guys were so close when you were still young And then, she called me this morning to tell me you were back She didn’t say much So, I decided to stay at the office so I wouldn’tProperty belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
miss the chance to see you,” he explained
Grey nodded slightly His explanation was feasible
“Come, Luciano was suddenly walking to the seats ‘You need to tell me where you have been all these years It’s over ten years now,” he acknowledged
Are you going to start that in my absence? A sweet voice said from behind them Aphrodite walked closer with a smile plastered across her face “You know how much I want to hear this, she whined jokily
Grey chuckled ‘Maybe I can tell you later. I’m not really in the mood for stories,” he proclaimed
Aphrodite sai beside him.” Well, you seriously don’t Guess what? Charles is coming back tomorrow morning
Grey’s heart skipped a beat. If Charles comes back, then it means that Grey would have to take over his company Though, he might still need to stay undercover
“Why? I thought he was coming back in months.”
‘Well, it’s a month already and,’ she looked at Grey Aren’t you happy? You will be having authority over your father’s companies Shouldn’t it make you happy? Aphrodite was confused. The look on Grey’s face showed he wasn’t at all happy about the revelation
“Well, I still have to stay like this for months until the spy has been found. Remember?” he announced dejectedly
Aphrodite nodded and looked away “I don’t know why he’s suddenly returning. He was supposed to spend two months over there,” she hinted
“Maybe nothing happened. We all know Charles He’s not really the flat type. He changes anytime and every time
Grey looked away “I’m not going to meet him Don’t tell him about me “Whats Aphrodile couldn’t believe her ears Are you kidding me. Grey? You are going to let go of your father’s companies? You are going to leave Charles to handle them?”
That’s not really good Charles isn’t the business type. He doesn’t really do well, especially with so many companies around him,” Luciano explained
Grey seemed to agree with that because of the SU world. It seemed like Charles didn’t monitor the company at all. He needed to take over immediately He must ensure progress in all his companies
“Grey, say something.’ Aphrodite urged
Grey let out a sigh eventually “Alright, you can tell me when he comes back,’ he looked at Aphrodite now
And if we can watch this movie later, then I will be glad I need to clear my head
Aphrodite nodded, understanding what the whole thing was doing to him Well, she had always understood him
Grey walked out of the hall quickly His heart was too heavy and he needed space to think clearly But Grey didn’t want to go home so he decided to stay around the vicinity
There was a path by his right which he took without thinking much about it He was still walking when he found himself in a new world
There seemed to be a different building, although it was still attached to the big cinema hall
He was about lo turn around when Iwo figures from afar caught his attention when he adjusted his gaze, he realized that the lady was Caramel She seemed to be in a heated argument with the guy So, he decided to move closer and see what was happening
“Leave me alone, Liaml Is there anything in this statement that you don’t understand? Caramel was getting angry and it was vivid in her expression
Liam scofled Don’t tell me to do that because I won’t it wont be over until I say so You are mine and you will be until I say otherwise,” he multered thickly with a tone that could scare
Caramel sighed I have no time for This, senously’ I’m done with you and that’s it! She finished up and took a step forward Liam pulled her back to himself suddenly
“It’s not done, Caramel,” he said stubbornly as he held her chin, forcing her to look at him ” You will be mine untill say otherwise,” he repeated nonchalantly and proceeded to kiss caramel
Grey took his hand off Caramel’s waist suddenly and squeezed it slowly
Liam stopped in his mission and his eyes went wide with shock as he stared at Grey “Who the fuck are you!’ He yelled
Grey squeezed it even harder
There was a shocked expression on Caramel’s face as she watched Grey but she soon got over it. She looked over at Liam, a bright smile suddenly on her face
“Liam, meel Grey, my boyfriend,’ she revealed, shocking even Grey
Your Boyfriend? Discomfort and shock mirrored Liam’s face. “When?’ He tried to get free from Grey’s hold but it was just so impossible
Caramel chuckled “I told you it’s over between us because I have him already,’ she pushed herself to him.’ And I should show you how to do what you were about to do the other time because you are clearly lacking in 11,” she looked up at Grey, stood on her toes, wrapped her arms around him and kissed him
11 was so fast that Grey didn’t see it coming.
