Secretly The Billionaire Boss

Chapter 478: Fired or what?
He was staring at Avery, Grey's ex-wife.
Why was she in Italy? Actually, it all seemed suspicious.
Why was Avery in Italy just when Grey lookalike was recently sighted in Italy as well? "Where's he?"
Avery inquired.
Maximo looked at Alex, then at Avery.
"What are you doing here?"
"I'm looking for David and you know that.I'm sure he’s here.Where's he? To get a drink?"
Her gaze searched around quickly for Grey.
"David? Who is David?" Alex asked suddenly.
It was at this moment that Avery turned to look at Alex.Her eyes went wide with shock.
Maximo watched these two for a moment before he stood, took Avery's hand, and walked her away.
Maximo pulled her aside.
"What are you doing? How did you even find me here?"
Avery was still looking at Alex, even from where she stood.
"I know you are a mafia lord but do you seriously roll with someone like Alex?"
Maximo's eyes tightened for a moment.
"You know who Alex is?"
Avery sighed and looked up at Maximo.

"Who doesn't know who Alex is? He is quite popular in Jacksonville especially after his identity was discovered as the heir of
Giovanni." Maximo sighed.
"What are you here for exactly? It's dangerous for you if you keep lurking around like this," he warned.
"I'm only here for David.You didn't get back to me since morning and he didn't call me either," she complained.
Maximo released an exasperated.
"See, Avery.I've already spoken to David and he promised to call you.Why don't you just wait for his call? I will tell one of my men
to drop you at the suite."
"Don't you bother? I can take care of myself.Thank you," she turned around and started to walk away.
Maximo watched her for a moment.
Actually, his heart seemed to race slightly when he saw Avery.She was dressed differently and well, very beautiful.He looked at
one of his men and signalled him over.The man rushed to Maximo and bowed his head slightly.
“Follow her.Make sure she arrives in the suite safely before you come back."
The man nodded once and walked out of the club.
Maximo released a sigh and walked back to Alex.
"I'm so sorry about the interruption." Alex watched him for a moment.
"How did you know Avery?"
"She came here for business and has been thinking of having a branch in Italy.So, I've been helping out but," he hesitated briefly.
"You seem to know her too.May I ask how? Alex sighed briefly.
"Just someone close to Grey that I knew.Avery stopped briefly on the way to her car.She reasoned that there was actually
something amiss somewhere.Maximo was the head of the mafia boss in Italy while Alex was the son of the head of the mafia
boss in Jacksonville, well, after the death of Hercules.
What were they doing together? It was really suspicious and she had to be careful.

Besides, Maximo was David's friend and she wondered why he wasn't around or maybe he was and Maximo didn't want her to
see him.
Nevertheless, it was painful to Avery that she wasted time coming and didn't get anything in return.Her phone rang suddenly.She
glanced at the screen and realised it was an unknown number.She sighed and entered the car before she picked it up.
"Hello, who is this?"
"David.Here's my number."Avery relaxed.
David was in the club after all.
Maximo must have informed him when she left.
"I thought you were never going to call."
"I told you I would work for you.I don't go back on my word.Anyways, you could send me the location of the company here so I
could come over on Monday."
"Well, I'm yet to get a place and that would be our job on Monday.Where is your place? I will come over."
"Never mind.I will come over to your suite tomorrow.You have a car, right?"
"Yes but_"
She didn't finish because Grey hung up on her.
Avery felt a bit annoyed and silently promised to deal with Grey when he resumed.Grey's phone rang suddenly as he entered his
car.It was Monday morning and yes, the time for him to resume work as Avery's assistant.
Actually, he started to regret the fact that he agreed to do it with her.He was to meet her at home but he still had to be very
careful.His phone rang again.
Grey didn't need to check the screen to know it was Avery calling.She had been disturbing him with calls since eight in the
morning.
He released a sigh and decided to pick it up, only to discover it was Maximo.He picked it up immediately.

"Hello, Maximo."
"Hi, Grey.I have a piece of information for you.The special members are here already.They arrived this morning.Do you have a
plan again? I mean next week is the announcement of the winner," he explained.
"Just give me a few minutes.I will think something out," he promised.
"Alright, call me when you are through," Maximo finished and the line went off.
Grey released a sigh.He didn't expect them to arrive so early.
Alex would surely be watching them at this moment.He needed to act discreetly.
Maybe, just maybe there was a way he could do it.
With Avery, that should be easy.
Especially the fact that Avery was just about to start a branch in Italy.He could lure her and use it for his interest.His phone rang
again as he drove into the street.
Just as he drove inside, a figure suddenly materialised in front of the car.
Grey was fast enough to press the brake.
His eyes went wide with shock when he realised who it was.It was Avery and she was looking at him with furious eyes.
Grey knew that she was very angry.
Avery hesitated before she moved right to the side of the car.
"The clause said you must resume work at exactly 8 in the morning! I'm sure you know the consequences?"
Grey met her gaze for a few minutes and nearly laughed.
"Will you fire me then?"
