Secretly The Billionaire Boss by Debbie chocolate Chapter 498: Grey is Hercules?

Chloe furrowed her brow. “What are you talking about? I don’t understand. We all knew who Grey was before you left Jacksonville. So, what are you talking about now?”

Avery regarded Chloe for a moment. “I still remember how you kept mincing words whenever I speak of dealing with Grey. You used to tell me to be very harsh towards him and suddenly, you were taking his side and telling me to be careful. Why did you say that?”

A flash of expression flickered across Chloe’s face as an admission of a tactical error.

“I might have done that because of so many reasons. I mean we’ve bullied him enough. He was supposed to live his life as well,” Chloe accused.

Avery sighed. “I regret my decision now but it’s too late, isn’t it?” She let out a sly smile. “Grey is dead already. So, even if you tell me anything about him, there will be no problem because he’s dead,” she teased, knowing fully well that it wasn’t true.

Grey was alive well, it wasn’t a lie on her part. Grey already declared himself dead. Why would she be the one to spread the news that he was alive? If he wants, he would.

Chloe released an exasperated sigh and looked away as if deliberating on either telling Avery or not.

“Well, yes but you guys weren’t a couple, forgotten. You guys weren’t even close and_,” she stammered. “He made me promise not to tell you.”

Avery sat up anxiously. It looked like she was right after all. There was really something that Chloe was keeping from her.
