Secretly The Billionaire Boss by Debbie chocolate

Chapter 32: Promise

Grey stared at the door for a moment. He didn't know exactly what Avery was angry about Was it because he hasn't gifted her anything since they've been married? Or was it because he lied about getting suits with his advance payment or because she thought he wasn't caring? He has questions but the answers elude him,

Grey spent the night in the maid's room He got up earlier as he didn't want Lucy to find out 11 could put him and Avery in trouble.

He knocked on the door but Avery didn't answer He opened the door nevertheless and stepped in

He stopped abruptly as his gaze setiled on the view before him Avery sat on the chair and was applying beauty products to her skin There were headphones on her ears and it could be the reason why she didn't hear him knock the other time

Grey was able to see Avery's flawless and long legs as she applied the moisture She wasn't aware of his presence or so he thought because she suddenly held out the towel, revealing the beauty of her body Grey hasn't remembered the way she looked even though they had something together. He wasn't even able to remember the peculiar thing that forced him to be a son-in-law

Grey wanted to look away He should but he couldn't, he was dumb struck

The hand circulating the thigh stopped suddenly as if just acknowledging some lactical error Like in slow motion, she looked up slowly when her eyes met with Grey, she screamed and lurched at the lowel "Look away." She yelled, devastated

Grey turned around like a robot, his face flushed at what he had been staring at

The truth was that Grey doesn't love Avery and well, she doesn't love him as well But, something was pulling them together now and Grey would stop at nothing to prove to his in-laws that he was capable of caring for Avery even though there would be no existence of love in their relationship

After the betrayal of Nora, Grey doesn't even think he could fall in love The only thing he was after was becoming a good son-in-law and also being able to unravel the mystery behind his father's death and also find the spy Also, he needed a nice prelense if he really didn't want others to suspect he was Hercules

"What the fuck did you think you were doing? She snapped

* I'm sorry I didn't know you were naked. I knocked on the door but you didn't respond," he rushed his explanation Though, he wondered why he had to. Avery was supposed to be his wife, wasn't she? "What if your grandfather knocks on the door now? What would he think If he sees me looking away from your flawless body7 Grey teased

"My grandfather would never do that, dummy! Avery remarked * You should get out and wait for me. I will call you when I'm done here," she suggested

Grey sighed "Alright, but you should hurry up as I'm going to work as well

"Don't dictate to mel" Avery yelled

Grey, open this door!' Lucy's voice sounded from the other side of the door

Avery telt her heart increase its beal as she stered at the door.

"Is Grey in this room? Lucy inquired

Avery looked over at Grey for assistance She wants nothing but to get on hei grandi ather's side and it

looked like Lucy was hell-bent on marrying her off to Grey She would have to keep a low profile till she Mugured out how to go about it

"Yes sir, I am," Grey replied quickly, as he sensed the desperation in Averys eyes

Avery heaved a reliel sigh at his response

"Can I come in right now? I need to speak with Avery," he seemed urgent

* But grandfather, we are in a compromising position," she said quickly

Grey was forced to look at her "What compromising position?" He whispered

Avery made a sign of keeping his mouth sealed if he loved his life

Grey sigh "Yes sir, we are," he said

"You guys are naked? It's morning what the fuck are you doing?

Grey shrugged and gave Avery an i-told-you so signal

"But grandpa, we are just.. she stopped suddenly when Grey's lips touched hers His right arm snaked around her waist and pressed her body against his chest while his left arm held the lowel in check Before she could react, the door opened almost immediately and her breath was caught in her breast

"Oh, I didn't know you guys were this intimale Lucy apologized quickly 'Avery, I would like to speak with you quickly I have an appointment this morning and you are coming with me"

Avery pulled away from Grey quickly, though his arms were still holding her waist closer to him "What? Appointmeni?" Surprise edged her voice

"Let's Talk this over during breaklast Though. I only have a few minutes left.' and he left

Avery couldn't believe her ears Lucy wanted her to lag along It has never happened asier the incident with Grey and the heiress's position has been taken from her It seemed to her that Lucy was about to rescind his decision Though, she saw no reason why it would happen because the very person that caused the problem was still sticking to her like glue

"You look overjoyed," Grey smiled.

Avery was brought back to the mundane world by his deep voice "What the fuck did you just do? Did you just kiss me! You dirly dumbass!" She screamed with disgust and pulled away from Grey

Even though Grey hasn't washed his mouth or had his bath, he lasted nice in Avery's mouth. But she had no time to think of it Instead, she went in for another quick shower, delaying Grey for another moment Grey didn't say anything Instead, he patiently waited for her to be done He somehow knew that he wouldn't be able to eat with Robinson Breakfast would be gone by the time he was done, When Gray walked into the living room. Lucy was speaking with Avery

"J K company is sponsoring a deal and they want you to be present as a prominent person of the compony Your presence is crucial to this contract,' Lucy explained Greysiniled Allred was really helping him and Grey had promised to help her get hier heir right
