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.

“Finę. I told you I would be better, didn’t l?” He laughed.

Grey nodded.” I will be fine.”
