Chapter 288

Grey’s phone rang suddenly as they drove along the street. It was Tiana.

"Hello boss, should we drive to your house or straight to Caramel's house?"

Grey regarded the car in front of him for a moment. "Take her home, Tiana," he finished and hung up.

"Are you alright?" Charles inquired.

Grey sighed and stared out of the window into nothingness. He had a lot on his mind anyways but he doesn't want to talk about it at that moment.

"Boss," Charles called suddenly, pulling Grey out of his thoughts. "Don’s car is actually parked. It looked like they wanted to speak with you."

Grey glanced down at his phone's screen but there were no missed calls from Tiana. He wondered why they were stopping anyways.

Charles pulled to a stop behind Don’s car.

Grey got down and made his way toward the car. He opened the door and only Tiana was staring up at him.

"Where’s Caramel?"

"She wants to speak with you," she announced and pointed in the opposite direction, at Caramel's figure.

Alex let out a sigh before he moved closer to Caramel slowly. "Caramel," he called softly. 1

Caramel shivered slightly before she turned around to look at Grey. "Grey," she called softly. Her voice got low and unlike hers.

Grey regarded her for a moment and saw the devastated look on her. He hesitated, "I told Don to take you home. You will be saved over there," he assured.

Caramel rushed forward until she had ended up in his arms. She sobbed quietly as she hugged her so tightly as if someone was going to rip her away.
