Chapter 53: borrowed
After breakfast, Avery and Lucy went to LX corporation, Emma and Benjamin also went out, not after informing Grey to do the dishes. They had maids and he doesn't know why he had to go through the stress. He did it anyway
His phone rang suddenly as he stepped inside the living room. The maids walked past the phone but didn't even bother helping him. They walked past him and didn't greet him but he shuddered it off.
It was Alfred that was calling. He picked it up immediately.
"Hi, Alfred," he smiled and whirled around to go back to the bedroom.
"Good morning, Hercules. How are you feeling today?"
"Finę. I told you I would be better, didn't I?" He laughed.
He barely took two steps forward when the doorbell sounded. He stopped in his tracks and turned around, towards the door again.
"I'm glad you are getting better. You should rest very well. Nothing must happen to you," he declared.
Grey nodded." I will be fine."
"Alright but I'm going to tell the elders this we will take action soon. What if Giovanni knows about you? How come you got attacked the day you visited your father's estate? He must have been spying on Aphrodite," he vented out his frustration
Grey sighed." Calm down. You don't need to tell the elders anything because this doesn't concern them And it's not Giovanni."
Alfred went silent for a minute." Then, who is it? Who dared lay his hands on you!"
"Don't bother yourself, Alfred, I will handle it. And if I discover that I can't, then I will inform you," he assured and opened the door.
"Alright, if you say so," Alfred accepted.
"Can we talk later then?" He opined, still holding out the door
"Sure, Alfred said and the line went off.
Grey's gaze roamed around Caramel for a moment and lingered more on her short skirt that was revealing her long flawless legs. Then, he slowly looked up at her. "Hi."
"Hi," she smiled, revealing a dimple that Grey hadn't noticed, "Can I come in?"
Grey got conscious of himself "Sure, I'm sorry," he stepped aside for her to enter. Then, he closed the door. "But Avery is not at home," he announced as he turned around to look at her Caramel nodded briefly." I'm aware. You said you would take me out today. remember?
Grey raised skeptical brows at her i did?"
Caramel nodded and laughed, "Don't tell me you forgot that. We were supposed to go to the gym Grey thought about it quickly, then nodded slightly. Sure, just give me a few minutes to get ready" "You sincerely don't need that," Cara said quickly just as Grey was about to leave " We could go to my
regular spot and we could get some nice gym wear How about that?' She was smiling as she made the suggestion
Grey nodded slowly He didn't even know what he was supposed to say Caramel seemed adamant about whatever she was planning
He regarded her for a moment, at her makeup and the fact thal she was overdressed. Were they really going to the gym? 'is everything alright?"
Caramel looked away and fidgeted with her jacket "Actually, I got invited to the opening of gymnastics It's a small gathering but Liam would be coming." she confessed
Grey sighed 'Liam again?
"No!" She said quickly, I just don't want him to see through our lies None of the friends that recognize you will be around," she assured
Grey nodded briefly, then looked down at himself "Am I good to go now?"
"Yes, you are," she expressed happily
Grey was only in a casual Jean and shirt bul Caramel found it good He wondered why Avery had never thought in that direction
"Alright, then. Let's go,' he announced
Caramel's smile even went wider as she hurried outside before Grey
Grey smiled watching her Maybe he could use that to start putting abs in place He needed it So, he would be using a stone to kill two birds
'My car or your car?" Grey wondered aloud as he stepped out beside Caramel
Caramel shrugged slightly "I didn't bring my car. So, it's definitely going to be your car
Grey smiled and spread his arms out. "Alright, I will gladly be your driver," he moved to the driver's side. But did you tell Avery that you will be borrowing her husband?" Caramel laughed. I did that already. She was so glad that you would be useful"
"Damn! That hurt" He laughed
Caramel laughed the more." You and I know that Avery doesn't love you She's always glad to get rid of
you"
Grey nodded briefly as he drove out of the compound
"This car is comfortable, will you take me out for a picnic in it?' Avery asked suddenly as Grey took a turn.
"Fine, I'm sure even Avery wouldn't mind," he jibed with a leasing smile
* That" Caramel gestured at a building by her right. "That's where we are going. We are finally here!" She announced excitedly
Grey wondered what she was so happy about but he realized it wouldn't hurt if he had fun as well
He pulled off in the parking lot and turned to look at Caramel. Stay right where you are," he ordered and got down Caramel wondered what he was up to but she complied.
Grey turned over to her side and opened the door for her. "Remember, I'm supposed to be your boyfriend for today
Caramel nodded happily" You are gelting the real gist, Grey Your acting skill is top-notch"
Grey moved his hand over his chest repeatedly while taking a short bow. Thank you."
Just as they both turned around, a car drove past them and pulled off as well. But Caramel couldn't avert her gaze from the can
Actually, the reason why she was suddenly interested in the car was because the car looks exactly like Grey's car
Grey followed the path of Caramel's gaze and he felt like she was close to replaceing what his secrets were The car is worth mülions. If Caramel discovered that, she might even be more suspicious.
