Secretly The Billionaire Boss

Chapter 35: Hungry son-in-law

When Grey returned home, it was late in the night and he was damn hungry. He called the maids but no one replied to him. He concluded that they were obviously asleep.

He decided to make some pancakes for himself.

Just as he grabbed the bag of flour, he heard footsteps behind him. He turned around and stared back at his hard face of Emma.

“What did you think you were doing?” Her voice was sharp and brittle.

“I‘m trying to make dinner,” he explained.

” Then, you better accept your poor fate. This is my kitchen and not yours. And you will do me the favor of walking out of it,” she snapped.

” But I‘m starving,” he protested.

” I‘m going to get security if you don‘t leave this place right now!” Her voice went above normal.

Grey signed and dropped the flour. He grabbed his phone and walked towards the door.

“Never forget what I‘ve told you,” Emma started suddenly, pulling Grey to a stop. “You are not my son–in law, Chris is. And it will only take a while before the owner will take its place. Don‘t think you are part of us now or you own the whole place because you don‘t,” she warned.

Grey opened the bedroom door slowly. Avery‘s voice surfaced. She was laughing. Grey used the opportunity to step inside.

“No, I‘m very sure he‘s going to proclaim me on my birthday,” she laughed, perhaps to what the caller on the other end had said. ” Yes, the contract has been finalized. And my grandfather acknowledged my efforts,” she laughed the more.

Grey was more than hungry and he regretted not having anything at Aphrodite‘s place. He slipped under the cover, beside Avery.
