Secretly The Billionaire Boss by Debbie chocolate

Chapter 397: Bad news

"Caramel," Beatrice called softly.

Caramel turned to look at her. "What? Are you going to scold me again?"

Caramel sighed. "I sincerely don't like the way you treat Grey. You shouldn't have aborted his baby in the first place."

Caramel rolled her eyes and stretched out the cup to her. "I don't regret what I did actually. If I was able to make a decision again, it would still be the same thing."

Beatrice regarded her for a moment before she took the cup and drank the tea in it. "What are you going to do now?"

Caramel sighed and sat. "I'm thinking of leaving the city and as usual, you are coming with me."

Beatrice held her gaze. "And you think we will be saved if we run away?"

"We are not running," Caramel stressed. "I'm just moving far away from Grey. It's better for both of us. Jacksonville reminds me so much of him and I have to get it out of my way, I need to live my life."

"Grey could have protected you. He would have protected us."

"And have our lives never been threatened?" Caramel inquired. She was feeling very frustrated. Beatrice released a sigh. And were we ever saved in Seattle? I could have died. And you could have killed Grey. What would have happened if you had?" The question ate so deep into Caramel. She tried to find answers but they eluded her.

Her mother was right after all but she felt there was nothing she could do. She had been in danger since the first day Grey was Hercules.

Caramel watched her mother for a moment. "I will go to a very far place. We could go to Africa. We will go places that we will never feel threatened ever," she assured.

Beatrice nodded once, sadness written all over her at the thought of moving far from Grey again. She loved Grey like a son. She had no choice anyways. She has to make sure that Caramel was alright as well.

Beatrice placed the cup on the table beside her and looked up, just in time to catch the headline on the screen.
