Secretly The Billionaire Boss

Grey inquired.

It was as if he didn’t hear what Maximo had said or perhaps he was just playing tricks on him.

"Alex called me now to ask me some questions and he knew.He said he knew that you were alive and currently in Italy.I tried to argue and act as if I didn’t know what he was talking about.But he said one of his men saw you.He even emphasized the fact that the guy recognizes you very much.So, he was positive that it was you," he explained.

"Now, Grey.What the fuck happened? How were you able to be recognized by one of Alex's men?"

Grey released an exasperated sigh.

For a moment, he was short of words.

How should he say Alex found out? Could it be that the other guy sent it to Alex before he was killed? That was the only explanation that Grey could gather in his head.

"I told you that Avery was kidnapped by Giovanni's men, right?"

"Yes, you did," Maximo responded immediately.

"Well, it was one of the men.One of them recognized me and sent a message before he died.Though, he sent the message to his boss and I don't know how it got to Alex,"he explained.

Maximo snorted aloud.

"So, how do you plan on doing this? If Alex already knows that you are alive, doesn't that mean that his father is aware of it as well? Isn't that dangerous? Especially the fact that you were caught in Italy."

"Yes, I know Maximo.You don't have to tell me the implications.I will try to come up with something.Just give me some time."

"But we don't have time because we don't know what Alex is planning to do any moment from now.The announcement date is next week.Can we really pull this thing off before then?"

There was indifference in his voice, mixed with fear.

"I know, Maximo.I know the risk and that's why I said you should give me a few minutes to figure out a plan.We are in this already, there's no way to stop what has already been done.But just give me a few minutes, I promise to find something," he assured.
