SECRETLY THE BILLIONAIRE BOSS BY DEBBIE CHOCOLATE - Season 3 Episode 43

“Do you know him?” Charles asked as he sensed that Grey was shocked.

Grey nodded briefly. “I do. I mean someone that looks like him at Jacksonville. In fact, I’ve met him

twice, or have I been seeing him wrong?”

Francesco laughed. “No, it’s the same person. Mattee told me a lot about you and I couldn’t help but

wonder who you have really turned out to be.”

Grey stared at James, still confused.

James moved nearer and sat beside Francesco. “Hi Grey, I’m Mattee,” he stretched out his hand for a

handshake which Grey caught with raised brows. “Also known as James in your city and by you

obviously,” he revealed.

So, Grey was right. It really was James but Grey just couldn’t believe it. How was James able to do it?

There was no attachment at all.

Three barmen walked nearer with a bucket of ice.

“Let’s drink!” Francisco announced happily.

Charles regarded him for a moment before he moved a bit closer to Grey. “Francesco looked happy

today. Are you sure we shouldn’t have brought the men? Or suspended the meeting?” he was bothered

about the weird attitude. Everyone knows how dangerous Francesco was and how he doesn’t really go

deep into smiling so much with people.

“No, never mind. It’s really under control. I’m sure we will be able to find the reason why he’s sounding

this. way,” Grey assured.

Charles nodded briefly and picked up his glass of wine.

“So, tell me. What brought you here,” Francescl inquired.

“Well, I thought we could talk about that tomorrow. I don’t think it’s ideal to talk about business on a day.

like this,” Grey smiled and picked up his cup of wine.

Francisco laughed. “I love that attitude!”

“Are you spending the night?” James was a bit shocked. He looked excited anyways.

Grey nodded briefly and regarded him for a moment. “I’m sure you have a lot to say to me.”

“Well, it was an important mission and Mattee came back with a nice result. Hercules has been missing

since ten years ago when your father died. Actually, we thought you died as well,” he sighed. “Even

though your father used to be my friend, there was nothing we could do about it when it came to

supporting another mafia lord,” Francesco explained.

Charles blinked in confusion. “What do you mean?”

“Giovanni sent me a letter a year ago to support him as I have always been doing every year. I’m one

of the mafia lords that Italy rests on. With my influence, it’s very easy to win the necessary awards,”

Francesco explained further.

Grey looked away for a moment as the explanation sank in. “Wait, are you saying that you have been

supporting Giovanni?”

“Well, yes,” Francesco admitted.

“My father has no choice, especially when the fact that you were dead was staring right at us,”

James Hesent chimed in. “We knew the group would collapse soon without the Hercules so there was

no need in supporting you,” he further explained.

Grey nodded briefly. “I understand.”

“What took you so long?” Mattee asked, interested.

Grey smiled. “It’s a long story.”

Mattee nodded briefly. “Maybe when I come to Jacksonville, then you can tell me about it.

Grey smiled. “I sure will.”

“So, why haven’t you accepted Giovanni’s request this year?”

Francisco drank more wine. “I received a message from one of our spies that told me Giovanni thinks

Hercules has returned. If that was so, we knew you could be back for real. So, we decided to see it

for ourselves,” he informed.

Grey looked at Francisco. “But well, that was recent. Why did you reject him one year ago?”

Francisco laughed again..

“Because I intercepted the letter. Giovanni came with his son a year and some days back to introduce

Alex as his heir. Then, I discovered he was the man I’d been looking for.” James revealed.

Grey gathered his forehead at him. “Alex offended you?”

“The story I told you about my friend was actually true, But she was Betty. The only thing here is that

she died and Alex killed her,” he announced.

Charles’s eyes went wide for a moment. “He killed your girlfriend?”

James nodded briefly, his hand clenched around the glass cup as if to break it. “I’ve been finding a way

to take revenge but I couldn’t do it because my father was in support of him,” he explained further.

“There was no way I would disgrace my father. So, I had to wait patiently until he sent the letter. I

hijacked it and refused to tell my father about it. The moment I heard the news of your arrival, I decided

to see who you. were and if you were worth supporting.” he added.

Grey blinked once, shocked again. “You did that to get close and see who I really was?”

James smiled and took the wine bottle to pour himself some content. “I was shocked at what I saw. I

didn’t expect a mafia boss to be intelligent, patient, and well, you were all I needed to get back at

Giovanni. You were the perfect boss to pair with. When I was done, I came back home to report to my

dad and we were already planning on sending you letters secretly because we know how badly you

wanted to .keep your identity.”

Shaq kept Grey motionless for a moment.How do you know so much?Matty is not an ordinary heir.He

gets things easily.But the question here is we are ready to supportyou in any way that you want,

Francesco announced.Matty nodded briefly.Will make sure you win the upcomingaward so that you can

disgrace Giovanni.And we will support you in whateverthing you are planning against him.Your father

has a share in the company.I think you should sign apaper now, since it’s now yours.Though we have

always sent your bonus to the accountthat your father dropped to me twelve years ago.The account in

Hercules name.Gray nodded briefly.No wonder the money in the account was huge.He doubted the

fact that his father was theone that saved such a huge amount of money.Thank you, gray

muttered.Maddie moved nearer.I want to talk about the death of your father.I think it’s murder.But don’t

you think Giovanni is involved in it?Charles looked at Grey, afraid thathe might say the truth.What

would it look like if they discovered itwas his father that killed the previous Hercules?And looked at

Maddie.Then he opened his mouth to say something.
