Secretly The Billionaire Boss by Debbie chocolate

Chapter 239: Fake

Someone jumped forward, almost kicking Grey in the process. He jerked backward, thereby releasing

the other man in the process.

Grey watched as the man moved closer to the second one to pull him up. Grey got up and watched two

men hurry out of the garage.

He regarded them for a moment before he entered the car and drove out of the garage.

If he wasn’t so tired, he might have decided to speak with Alfred that day. So, instead, he drove straight

home.

Lucy was fuming with anger. “How can you use all the company funds? How are we sincerely going to

prevent the company from going bankrupt?” He yelled.

“I had a good dream for the company. I just didn’t know it would end like this,” Smith mumbled. Emma

sighed. “I sincerely don’t believe all this is happening. I think LX should borrow funds from LN. They

should be able to manage it. Don’t forget that Smith borrowed from the bank and the deadline is near. If

we don’t do something, we will lose our reputation in public,” she explained.

Lucy nodded, in support of what she had just said. “That will be the best move for now. So, Avery, how

can this work out?”

Avery regarded Emma for a moment. “He didn’t tell you?” She looked over at Lucy. “He hasn’t? Well,

LN has no funds again.”

Lucy felt agitated.” What! LN has no funds? What happened? Did you do something as well?”

‘Well, this question should be directed at Smith because he borrowed the fund as well. He did it behind

my back and saw it as nothing when I confronted him,” she explained calmly.

“What!” Lucy yelled and looked at Smith again. “You did what? You used all LN funds as well?” The

shock was vivid on his face. ” You,” he stopped suddenly as he couldn’t speak clearly.

“Dad!” Emma yelled and rushed to him.

Benjamin supported him as Lucy couldn’t really stand again.

Lucy was still pointing an accusing finger at Smith. “How dare you! Smith! How dare you!” Anger fueled

his blood and he wasn’t even bothered about his health.

“Get me the car key! We are taking him to the hospital!” Emma yelled at Smith.

Smith, feeling very ashamed of himself, hurried to grab the keys and handed them over to Emma.

Emma hurried to call one of the security guards so that he and Benjamin could help Lucy inside the

car.

After they left, Avery regarded Smith for a moment. “I knew it was going to come to an end soon,

Smith.”

Smith clenched his teeth. “What are you doing? You could have helped me! You know it wasn’t

intentional. I had no plan to waste it like that. I only wanted the better future for the company,” he

argued.

Avery nodded briefly.” I will never use my paycheck for you, Smith. I will never help you. And this is just

a little payback for all you have ever done for me.”

Smith gathered his forehead as he watched Avery. “What? I hope what I’m thinking isn’t what

happened. You planned with Grey to make me pay?”

Avery sighed I didn’t do anything but I wished I had something to do. You ruined my life, Smith!” She

yelled. I thought it was Grey but it was you! It has always been you all this while. You are nothing but a

wicked and greedy uncle!” She had been very thoughtful recently. Even though she realized it was all

her fault, she also discovered how much harm Smith had done to her.

She wouldn’t have married Grey to start with if Smith had not set them up. And meanwhile, she blamed

it all on Grey and didn’t treat him well.

“Smith smiled softly. So, you still plan on running the companies?”

“It’s the end for you, Smith. And no, I have no plan on running your company. How do you even expect

me to run a company with no funds? You just think I’m as stupid as you are!” She yelled. “And I’m just

so tired of you all in this house and I’m going to find my way!” She finished and stomped inside.

Smith felt rage at the fact that he lost to Grey. It was the end for him, as Avery had said but he was still

bent on making Grey pay.

Avery entered his room and took the blue diamond that Chris got for her. She regarded it for a moment.

It was in fact the only thing she had left. She had no paycheck because it was all gone.

She placed her all into LN company, thinking she would eventually see a good result and get back all

she had used.

The blue diamond was a rare one and according to ladies that have been admiring it, it is worth a

fortune. Even Chloe confirmed it.

If she could sell it at Aphrodite store or any specialist diamond buyer, she could get back thirty million.

dollars, if not the fifty million dollars which is the actual price.

Though, if it was auctioned, she could have gotten more but Avery had no way to get it auctioned. So,

she would just sell it.

Maybe, she can give her grandfather some of the money to prevent the company from going bankrupt.

Then, she would be able to find her way.

She had no plan to go back to the company that started the whole thing.

When she walked into the living room, Smith was gone. She didn’t care about him and instead drove.

towards one of the local Jeweler in Jacksonville.

As she drove, a lot of thought cuddled in her mind in some sort of frenzy confusion. She knew she had

lost Grey but she still wanted to see him.

Avery hasn’t decided what to do exactly but she would definitely leave the family house and she

wouldn’t stay in the family company either.

She would need time to find herself and she would need to do it alone.

She finally pulled to a stop in front of a jeweler’s store. She took the blue diamond and walked inside.

“Good day, ma’am. Welcome, would you like to look around?” One of the Salespeople said.

Avery regarded the store for a moment.” Actually, I’m not here to buy but sell. Where is the manager or

someone that can attend to me?”

“Oh, come this way. I will take you to the manager,” the salesperson offered and led her towards a mini

office by their right. A man was there, looking at a pink diamond. He had a wide smile on his face.

The manager looked up at the man standing in front of him. “Good, are we done?”

The man nodded briefly and walked past Avery. It looked like he just sold the pink diamond to

the manager.

“Sir, we have another seller,” the salesperson announced. May I see it?”

Avery nodded briefly, walked closer andstretched out the blue diamond.The manager's eyes went wide

for a moment.Is this a popular and rare blue diamond?Avery nodded briefly.I would like to sell it.How

much will you buy it?The manager didn't reply, and itinstead took a magnifying glass.He examined a

diamond for a few minutes, turning andturning it as if he couldn't get enough of it.He eventually

dropped the magnifyingglass and looked at Avery.So how much will you be taking?Maybe a million

dollars. What?Avery's eyes shot out in anger.You want to take a $50 million diamond for a million?What

kind of thing is that?This the manager laughed.This isn't the real thing.I'm just buying it because I'm

amazed by it.Avery was shocked.What do you mean?It's an imitation.It's a fake blue diamond.
