Secretly The Billionaire Boss Chapter 407: Burial procession
Grey stood far away and looked over at the people dressed in black as they performed the burial rite.
Clad in black trousers and a black hoodie to cover his face, he was sure that no one would recognize
him as Grey.
There were many people there, as Alfred gave Grey the idea of having the fake Grey’s burial be at the
same time as Jimmy’s.
And it was a bit disappointing that the members of the billionaire club were not in attendance. What if
he was dead for real? Was that how they were going to turn against him immediately?
Though right, they weren’t supposed to show up because he died as Grey but they could find a way to
turn up. They would find a way if it was something else but not for Grey.
Well, he didn’t expect them to be faithful. They weren’t his family after all.
The people started to leave one after the other but Grey stayed and continued to look at the
procession.
Everyone left except for Jimmy’s wife. She clutched hard at her baby as she stared at his grave. And
Grey knew that she was crying.
Though, she was far away and he couldn’t see her face.
But she wasn’t the only one standing by the grave, in front of his fake grave was another lady.

at that moment and let her know that he was alive. No, that would cause people to see him as well and
the lie would spread like wildfire in the harmattan.
But he could call her at that moment. He still had her digit. He could call her and let her know that he
was alright, only her.
But Grey didn’t know what to do. He looked away as he thought about it. When he looked up again,
Caramel was already walking away.
Grey released a sigh and moved towards the cars parked at the back of the church. He opened the
back seat of the Benz and got inside.
There were some of the elders inside the car. Alfred, Jayden,
Gregory, and Charles were the only elders inside the car.
“Is something wrong, Hercules? Are you already thinking of changing your mind?” Gregory demanded
calmly.
Grey shook his head briefly. “Not that, I was just thinking about a lot,” he looked at Alfred. “Did Caramel
come over to you? To ask you about me?”
Alfred looked up at him for a moment, “No-,” he said finally. “Ithink she decided to finally let go of you.
She wouldn’t need to ask me since her mother has been discharged and she has nothing to do with me
anymore. Asides, she already made up her mind.”
Grey looked away, a bit confused. “Then why did she come to my burial and spend so much time? She
didn’t even leave like the others.”
“She came?” Alfred was shocked.
Grey nodded briefly. “I’m sure she asked one of you guys about me. Could it be Aphrodite?”
Alfred released a sigh. “She asked me. She came to me.”
Grey relaxed back. “I knew it. I knew that would happen. Why didn’t you tell her the truth?”
Alfred hesitated. “You seriously want that?”
Grey nodded briefly. “She wouldn’t be so disturbed if you had. She looked so sad thinking I had died.”
“Grey,” Alfred called softly. “You remember how important this plan is. I don’t think a lot of people
should be aware, especially someone that Giovanni knows. Who knows, he could be spying on her. If
you really want to act dead, You should be able to convince Caramel if you want to convince Giovanni.”
Grey released a sigh but he didn’t say anything.
“Besides, you and Caramel have called it off days back. I don’t think you should be worried about her,
you should be worried about yourself instead. Caramel has decided to move on, even before she found
out that you were dead. You should do the same,” he explained.
Grey nodded briefly, finding sense in what he had said. “Alright,” he released a relieved sigh and
pushed the thought about Caramel to the back of his mind. “Let’s meet in Italy in two days.”
“You are leaving today, right?” Gregory asked. Grey nodded briefly. “Yes.”

Grey nodded again. “Thank you all for your hard work,” he sat back. “Jacksonville is going to be empty
without me but well, not for so long. Giovanni will probably attack Protos Pubblicita first. I want you to
double the security before we leave,” he ordered Charles.
“Alright boss.”
Grey regarded him for a moment. “Let’s go then,” he got down and walked to the Lamborghini that was
close to the Benz. He got inside and waited for Charles.
“Are you alright?” Aphrodite asked suddenly. She sat on the passenger’s side of the car.
Grey nodded once. “I’m fine. Why do you think I won’t be?” Aphrodite smiled. “You just ended your life
in Jacksonville. It might only be for some time but you really have. So, you might be feeling somehow.”
Grey smiled and looked out through the window. “Maybe I am butI am also excited to start a new life.
Although, I’m worried about what I would be meeting in Italy.”
Several moments later, Charles entered. “Are we leaving now?”
Grey nodded once. “Yes, we are. If something has really changed in Italy, then it won’t be advisable for
you to show up suddenly. So, I will go ahead before you,” he revealed suddenly.
“No, that’s risky. We have to be beside you to protect you,”Charles said quickly.
“You won’t be leaving me totally. You will just be one hour apart. I just need an hour to ascertain the
situation and get used to some things in Italy. I will be fine if you keep to my instructions.”
Aphrodite looked at Charles and nodded briefly.
