Caramel stared at him for a moment as if she was preparing the next thing to say. “Yes, I’m fucked up! I can’t keep doing this.”Grey regarded her for another moment. “Why? Why do you want to break up with me? Is it because you are scared of Alex? Or is it that you can’t bear staying with me because I’m Hercules?”Caramel blinked once and looked away. She sucked in her breath. “ No,” she dragged, “no,” she repeated as if she was indecisive about her decision. “I love you, Grey but I’m scared. Oh, what I ever wanted was not to get into all this shit. I don’t want to get involved with anything Mafia. My mother was killed by one of them and…” her voice trailed off.Grey didn’t say a word. He didn’t want to interrupt her and make her forget what she was about to say. Caramel let out a sigh. “All I ever wanted was to have a normal man as my boyfriend. I didn’t want to get into the mess again because I’m scared of it. I don't want someone from the mafia, I don't want that,” she sobbed sile

"Where is my father?""He's having his breakfast," the maid supplied.Caramel nodded briefly and walked past the maid to the dining. Her father was truly having his breakfast."Hello father," she moved closer and gave him a peck. "Good morning.""Good morning Hunny," her father stared at her for a moment. "Are you ok? You look pale."Caramel nodded briefly and pulled out a seat for herself. "I am. I just need space. I'm leaving Jacksonville," she announced to her father's surprise."Why, Caramel?"Caramel stared down at the food that have been placed in front of her. "Nothing, really.'"Nothing? You stopped working at my company and you said nothing. Now, you are leaving and you are still telling me it's nothing?"Caramel sighed. "I'm really ok. I just need to clear my head. I will be fine when I return, I promise," she said with a smile.Her father nodded in acceptance. He had always been understanding anyways."So, when am I seeing him?" He asked all of a sudden.Caramel gave her fa

"That doesn't even make sense. How can I marry a woman that doesn't even want to have anything to do with me?" Alex complained.Hattie shrugged slightly. "There's always a way around something, isn't there? You might want to speak to her. The drugs should be wearing off now, take your time," she finished and walked away.Alex regarded Caramel for a moment and realised she was already moving her head. She seemed to be coming back to life already.Alex walked inside the room and regarded Caramel for a moment.Caramel looked up at him. "Alex?"Alex groaned inwardly. "Yes, it's me. Do you have anything to say to me?"Caramel cursed under her breath. "Yes, I have a lot to say. Why am I here?"Alex cleared his throat. "You were really going to leave? With Grey?"Caramel rolled her eyes. "Is this what this is all about?""Answer my question, Caramel!" Alex barked, startling Caramel for a moment. "You would leave me for that thing! For Grey?" His muscles contracted and his voice went deeper.

Grey's phone rang suddenly as they drove along the street. It was Tiana."Hello boss, should we drive to your house or straight to Caramel’s house?"Grey regarded the car in front of him for a moment. “Take her home, Tiana,” he finished and hung up.“Are you alright?” Charles inquired.Grey sighed and stared out of the window into nothingness. He had a lot on his mind anyways but he doesn’t want to talk about it at that moment.“Boss,” Charles called suddenly, pulling Grey out of his thoughts. “Don's car is actually parked. It looked like they wanted to speak with you.”Grey glanced down at his phone's screen but there were no missed calls from Tiana. He wondered why they were stopping anyways.Charles pulled to a stop behind Don’s car.Grey got down and made his way toward the car. He opened the door and only Tiana was staring up at him.“Where’s Caramel?”“She wants to speak with you,” she announced and pointed in the opposite direction, at Caramel's figure.Alex let out a sigh befo

Leo woke up with a loud yelp. He was soaked in his perspiration but he felt a lot better. Though his head was still seriously banging and there were bandages all over his body.“Are you ok?” Alfred demanded suddenly.Leo looked over at him and slowly nodded. “I feel good now.”Alfred released a sigh. “That’s good. Giovanni took you, right?”Leo relaxed. “Yes, he did.”Though, he didn’t believe that he had already agreed to be Giovanni's spy. Not only that, he had told him everything about Hercules, and he had betrayed Hercules twice.He didn’t even know how long he could carry the burden.“Thankfully, we found you earlier. What was he planning on doing with you?”“He was-,” he hesitated and gestured towards nothing in particular. “He wants me to be the spy but I disagree. I guess he was going to kill me when you found me,” he lied.Alfred nodded as a sign of encouragement. “You should be fine by morning,” he assured.Leo nodded briefly and Alfred walked out of the room.Leo regarded h
