Secretly The Billionaire Boss by Debbie chocolate Chapter 488: Clear the misunderstanding

“You do?” Avery raised a skeptical brow at him. “How much do you even know? How much do you know that makes

you despise me so much?”

All the things that Avery had done to him during their marriage, sprang to his lips but he bit them back quickly.

Truly, Avery really made him go through a lot. All the pain have transformed into anger in him but he wasn’t going

to take it up. He didn’t even have it on his agenda. The only thing he didn’t want was to get close to her. He didn’t

want it.

“I don’t despise you, Avery. What got you upset?”

“You don’t? How can you say that when the evidence is so crystal clear like daytime? Have I done so wrong than

asking you to work for me?”

Grey watched her for a moment. ” You forced me to work for you.”

“Is that it? Is that why you hate me so much?” She asked but Grey didn’t respond. “Answer me, David!” She yelled.

“Is it because I forced you to work for me, is that why you hate me so much?”

Grey sighed. “Let’s leave this place. We can talk about this elsewhere. People are watching.”

“I don’t care, David. The moment I leave here, I don’t want to see you again,” she turned and started back towards

her car.

Grey took long strides behind her and stopped her before she opened the door. He took her off the group and

headed towards the passenger’s side.

Avery struggled with him. “Let me go or I will scream!” She warned but Grey didn’t answer. Instead, he opened the

door. “Help me!” Avery screamed out loud. Grey tried to settle her in. “Let me go! You have no right! This is my

car!” She protested.

“Calm down, Avery. Hear me out, please.”

“No, there’s nothing else to say. Just let me go and we will never meet again! No, I’m going to leave Italy and never

look back.”

“But at least, just hear me out. Avery!” He yelled at once, in a deep and frightening voice.

Avery was forced to a sudden stop. She stopped struggling.

“Let’s talk in a secluded place. We will settle everything,” he assured, closed the door, and moved to the driver’s

side. He got inside and Avery couldn’t stop staring at him.

She was so shocked.

“I promise, everything will be alright,” he reminded before he started the ignition and drove right towards the suite

where the special members were. It was only a few minutes to 9 and he felt he could still speak with her and still be

able to meet up with time. He really wanted Avery to speak with the special members.

Avery released a sigh that she didn’t even know she was keeping. There was nothing that could make her doubt the

fact that David was really a mafia lord. He shows it, he controls it.

Grey glanced at her and wondered what was going through her mind at that moment.

He soon pulled up into the suite parking space. He looked at Avery. “Can we talk about this?”

Avery didn’t look at him or respond to him.

“Avery, why do you think I hate you?”

Avery released a sigh. “I don’t want to talk about it. Are you going to force me? Are you going to threaten me?”

“No, I just want us to talk about this,” he regarded her for a moment. “I don’t hate you, Avery and that’s the truth.”

“Then explain,” she looked at Grey suddenly. “Explain the reason why you do look down on me like that. Why do you

speak to me like that? What have I done so wrong? Is it wrong to want you to work for me? Is it wrong to want you

close to me because you look like someone I used to know?”

Grey looked away. “Who do I remind you of?”

Avery watched him for a moment. “You_,” she hesitated. “Y_you,” she stammered. “I_,” she gave up. “I don’t want

to talk about it.”

“Why?”

Avery pulsed her mouth for a moment in a calculative manner. “Fine! I will tell you!” She released a sigh. “Grey was

a man that I got married to. A nice man that I shouldn’t have lost. I fell in love with him but it was too late. He’s the

only one I offended!”

Grey looked at her. “Where’s he now?”

Avery released a sigh. “He died.”

Grey was shocked for a moment. “He died?”

Avery nodded briefly. “He died several weeks ago.”

Grey’s eyes went wide with shock. He couldn’t believe it. Hercules was supposed to be the only one popularly dead.

Truly, Hercules was pronounced dead but he didn’t know that Grey was also pronounced dead and he didn’t know

about it.

Why did it even happen?

Avery sobbed quietly. “I was supposed to have gone back to Jacksonville. God, I really miss him.” She looked back at

Grey. “You look so much like him. You remind me so much of him. This was why I wanted you to be near. Was that

so hard for me to ask?”

“No,” Grey looked at her. “And I’m so sorry for any misunderstanding but I don’t despise you, Avery and that’s the

truth. I don’t. And I’m sorry for making it look like that. Please, forgive me,” he reached for her hands. “I’m really

sorry, Avery.”

Avery watched him for a moment. “I understand if you don’t want to work with me. I understand and I have given

you the freedom to leave. I will be fine.”

Grey shook his head briefly. “No, Avery. Listen to me, I’m saying the truth. I don’t hate you, alright and it’s ok

working with you,” he assured.

Avery clenched her teeth. “Are you sure about that?”

Grey nodded once and smiled briefly. “I promise and I don’t go back on my word.”

“Am I supposed to trust that?”

Grey released a relieved sigh. “Avery, I’m telling the truth. You want a company in Italy and I will help you achieve

your aim.”

Avery smiled. “You will?”

Grey nodded once. “I will give you all the support. Oh, that reminds me. The announcement for the King of the

World is next week and there would be a lot of important people at the party. I will find out the location so that we

can attend. You could get to meet a lot of business partners and investors.”

Avery’s eyes brightened. “That’s cool! You are going to do that for me?”

Grey nodded once. Even though he had a second reason, he still wanted to help Avery in any way they could. He

protected her till the very end of their marriage anyways.

“I will. But let’s hurry up so we don’t lose this investor. It’s 9 already.”

Avery laughed and pulled away. She felt a surge of happiness.
