Secretly The Billionaire Boss by Debbie chocolate

Chapter 377: Pretense

Smith stood awake the whole night trying to find out what could have happened with Arnold. He found

none and decided to continue with what he and Seth had planned to do.

He arrived at Seth's company, a smile on his face. At least, he was able to find something to do before

Arnold and David decided to betray him.

Smith walked inside the company. He met Seth on the way out.

"Smith!" Seth called out happily.

They both exchanged pleasantries.

"I didn't know you were coming back so quickly."

Smith smiled. "Well, I told you I was. Where are you going now? Can we talk?"

Seth nodded briefly. "That can wait, let's go inside my office to talk. We have a lot to discuss," he

turned around and led Smith to his office.

He was able to get a small amount of money to get a nice plaza for his new business. In fact, he was

able to employ some workers for important positions and left aside other positions.

"Is there something I should offer you?" Seth inquired as they entered the office. He moved to his seat

and gestured towards the one in front of him for Smith to sit on.

Smith sat. "Nothing for now. I will say we discuss the reason why we are here. Then, when we are

done with that, we can think of other things."

Seth nodded in agreement. "So, I met Grey last night."

Smith sat up in surprise. "You did? How?"

"He came to Megaphone Attitude to drink and I came there as well. I would have been able to deal with

him if Don hadn't shown up. But I think we need to plan a way to deal with him," he suggested and his

eyes twinkled with excitement.

Smith nodded once. "You are right. We should show him the steel we are made up of."

"So, what do you propose we do to him?"

Smith thought for a moment. "I have a plan already. But can we go over to his place? Have you been to

his place? Have you confirmed all there is to him?"

Not really. I just got some information about where the Diamond base company is. That was where I

was going when you walked inside the company.’Seth revealed.

"Ok then, I think we can do that. That aside, you told me about the position you would like me to take

on in this company."

Seth nodded once. "You will be the project manager of this company. And if I eventually get the order, I

will be giving you the amount I have promised you," he voiced out.

"Seriously?" Smith was shocked for a moment. He remembered the fact that Seth had once wanted his

help but he did render it. But he had suddenly forgotten about it and was helping him. What more could

he say? Even Arnold refused to help him. "Thank you so much, Seth. I really appreciate it," he said

truthfully.

Seth smiled. "It's alright. What are we friends for if we can't do that small thing? But I will need your

help in running everything around here. We need to keep the place running very well so that Protos

Pubblicita would award the contract for US," he explained.

Smith nodded once. "When we are back from Diamond base, I will examine everywhere and see how

everything can work efficiently," he assured.

"Then let's move. We should meet with our competitor immediately."

Grey didn't go home that morning. Instead, he ordered a suit from Aphrodite's store.

He didn't bother showing up at Protos Pubblicita because he had to see the types of furniture that

Maria was going to get for the Diamond base company.

Maria wasn't even able to make a decision. Grey had to call her back so she could at least manage the

interview of the secretary of the Diamond base company.

"Do you like this one?" The man showing Grey around inquired.

Grey regarded the last design and gently nodded. They have been moving from one design to another

and none was pleasing to Grey's eyes.

"I love this one. You guys should have it delivered before the end of today," Grey said.

The man nodded briefly. "You can make the payment now then. We will definitely not delay you," he

promised.

Grey nodded once and turned around to leave. He needed to finish with it and hurried over to the

Diamond base company to continue with the interview.

Maria only had to select a secretary for him. He would be the one to do the rest.

Fortunately, Maria already got him some interested applicants and Grey only just needed to get to

Diamond base company to continue the interview.

"So, we will get it delivered as soon as possible," the man in charge of the furniture repeated.

Grey nodded before he walked inside his car and Jimmy drove out.

They soon arrived at Diamond base but there were some strange-looking men outside, with planks.

Grey got out of the car and regarded the men for a moment before he walked closer to them.

"Is anything the matter?" He questioned.

The men ignored Grey. So, he stepped inside and hesitated as Seth and Smith walked out from

wherever they were.

"Look who is here," Smith laughed out loud that the other planets could have heard him.

Grey regarded him for a moment. "What are you doing here?"

Seth grunted loudly. "What is this place?"

"You need to leave now before I call the police."

"Yes, you need to. We have an interview we are currently attending," a lady said suddenly.

Three thugs rushed inside. "You guys have to leave now or you will be beaten!” One of them

threatened and started beating the job seekers.

They all rushed out of the place, except for the lady that spoke the other time.

Grey gave them a dark frown. "What is this all about? This is an infringement on my right!" He yelled at

them, while trying to pretend he didn't know what they wanted.

Seth smiled with pride and brought out his phone to call one of the policemen that he knew.
