Chapter 31: A gem in hiding
Caramel laughed. "Of course, I did. I wanted to see what you were doing and I saw you fighting those men. Why didn't you tell Avery the truth?"" It wouldn't change anything," he insisted." No," Caramel shook her head. " It would have changed a lot. Maybe her parents won't stop seeing you as completely useless."Grey regarded her for a moment. Caramel was too inquisitive and knows more than what she was supposed to know. If someone like Caramel could recognize Max, then it would be dangerous for her to know the real Grey."I am completely useless. I don't really fit for Avery and we are only together because of some circumstances," he argued. " Though, I'm trying my best to be good for her."She observed him for a moment. " Is there something you don't want to tell me? What are you hiding, Grey?"Grey cleared his throat meaningfully. "I learned some things in the street after all. Actually, it was the only thing I could do well. I wanted to survive on the street and so, hence that,"

Chapter 32: Promise
Grey stared at the door for a moment. He didn't know exactly what Avery was angry about. Was it because he hasn't gifted her anything since they've been married? Or was it because he lied about getting suits with his advance payment or because she thought he wasn't caring? He has questions but the answers elude him.Grey spent the night in the maid's room. He got up earlier as he didn't want Lucy to find out. It could put him and Avery in trouble.He knocked on the door but Avery didn't answer. He opened the door nevertheless and stepped in.He stopped abruptly as his gaze settled on the view before him. Avery sat on the chair and was applying beauty products to her skin. There were headphones on her ears and it could be the reason why she didn't hear him knock the other time.Grey was able to see Avery's flawless and long legs as she applied the moisture. She wasn't aware of his presence or so he thought because she suddenly held out the towel, revealing the beauty of her body.Grey

Chapter 33: A spark at work
As he had thought, breakfast was done when he finally walked out."Seriously? You should hurry up then," Emma seemed so happy about the change. She was optimistic that Lucy would change his mind soon." Is David driving or will you like me to drive?" Avery asked. She was happy as well and Grey couldn't help but notice that smiling made her look more attractive." We are going in our separate cars. You will have to return to your company after the contract has been finalized," Lucy finalized, stood up, and walked out.Avery followed quickly."Good morning in-laws," Grey greeted with respect."Good morning," Benjamin replied but Emma hissed and walked away.Grey walked out nevertheless. Some of the maids were walking in when he came out. They walked past him without greetings.One of the maids stopped in front of the door. "Look at him in a suit that Avery got for him. He's such a disgrace."" That's enough," one shut her up. " You shouldn't abuse Avery's husband."The maids laughed."

Chapter 34: Purpose
Grey entered the car but he didn't miss the shocking look on Cindy's face."Can I play music, Mr. Grey?" The driver inquired.Grey nodded. "Sure. But where are we going?""Aphrodite Villa."Grey found himself staring hard at the big building in front of him. The house was nothing like Robinson's house. Aphrodite was strikingly rich. But with what Alfred and Gregory had said, Hercules's net worth was like multiplication of what he had been seeing recently. Grey couldn't really wait to find out how rich he really was. He couldn't wait for Charles to be back."Can we go, Mr. Grey?" The driver asked politely. He seemed to respect Grey so much and Grey wondered why.Grey followed him inside the spacious living room that looked like heaven on Earth.Three ladies walked out from the inner room. They walked over to Grey and stopped to give him a short bow. The driver turned around now, leaving Grey to the mercy of the ladies.They walked him towards another door by their left. Grey entered t

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 pla

Chapter 36: Seeing a rival
Grey got to work earlier but he didn't miss the rumors already circulating about him. A lot of workers were discussing what the manager would do to Grey.He walked to the elevator which was almost occupied. He hurried inside before the door would close."See, he's even so brave," someone whispered behind him." Good morning Mr. Grey. How was your night? " Jane asked politely, a smile on her face.Grey looked at her. He hadn't realized she was inside the elevator. "Great. How was yours."Jane's smile broadened. "Great."The elevator made a beep and the door opened. Grey walked to his office. He hadn't sat when the telephone rang. He wondered who was calling at such an early hour.He picked it up nevertheless. "Hello, good morning.""This is the manager of J.K company and I want you in my office right now," he muttered thickly and the phone went off.Grey knocked on the door slowly. "Hello, this is Grey, and im_," he couldn't finish his words as the door jerked open."You should walk in

Chapter 37: Fired from work
Grey went back to J.K company. Everyone was surprised that Grey was suddenly back after he had been fired by the manager. If Alfred makes Grey continue working at his company or makes him a manager, then everyone would know how close these two have become. People were curiously waiting for the outcome."Do you know what working in your company will do to me!" Grey questioned. He sat on the cushion in front of Alfred."I've thought about it for a while as well but I can't let an ordinary manager insult you. I want everyone to know you are at least not the lowest," he indicated in a pained way." Why?" Grey was shocked. " Why do you suddenly want me to work in my company? You have never mentioned my company to me. Why do so now?"Alfred went silent again. " I just got some information. Giovanni just met with the main secretary of your company."Grey stared back at the suites. " You have a spy around Clarion?""Yes," he admitted. "I'm trying to find who is giving us out. And I must say t

Chapter 38: His possession
Avery opened the door."What are you doing Avery!" Grey asked suddenly as Avery got down from the car.Avery turned to look at him. "Chris asked me out on a date. That's where I'm off to. "Grey felt a slight stab of annoyance. " We are married, Avery," he reminded quickly. "You are not supposed to go out with any man. You are mine already," he muttered thickly.Avery laughed. " Are you kidding me? You didn't pay my dowry. You didn't marry me, Grey. I married you. "" Heck, " Grey cursed. " It doesn't matter. We are now a couple. You are not supposed to look at any other man, " he stressed. He may not love Avery but he feels like he owns her. They were married for crying out loud. While Grey was trying to protect that, Avery was behaving as she liked.Grey had not slept with any girls ever since he got married to Avery even though Avery didn't let him touch her. He had been forcing himself to look away because he was married. Was he the only one liable in the marriage?"See, Grey," sh

Chapter 39: A request
Avery however was with Chris in a popular bar in the city. She doesn't like Chris but had to go out on a date with him because of her mother. She lied to Grey because she was angry at him. Grey was not the kind of man she wanted and she wasn't even ready to get married but Grey forced her to. She had thought he was doing great at least until she heard that Alfred had fired him. And that got her so angry at him. She was his? They might be married but Avery would never be his wife. She was looking for the right opportunity to get her grandfather to approve the divorce. Avery sipped the drink slowly and suddenly felt like going back to the comfort of her home. She felt tired and Chris's words were boring her already. "I spoke with your mother, Avery and she would like us to date," he announced and looked up at her. Avery regarded him for a moment. " I'm married, remember," she stressed. Chris chuckled, "I'm aware, alright and your mother is as well but we all know who Grey is. He's

Chapter 40: The trick
Ice melts in fire and perspiration dries in the breeze but Grey's promise didn't even melt Avery's heart.She turned to look at her, with a smirk at the tip of her mouth. "Seriously? How will you buy me one? Will you steal?""Come on, Avery. Be serious! I'm not as incompetent as you think I am," he muttered.Avery laughed. It felt good to laugh after such a stressful day. "You are a very funny guy, Grey. And yes! I think you are very incompetent. You should sit and watch me. I will get my father to approve the divorce," she said with determination.Grey regarded her for a moment and took a step closer. "You are missing something here, Avery. You can't get out of this marriage unless I want to."" We will get divorced soon, I assure you," she finished and turned around to leave. She stopped almost immediately. "You won't stay in this room tonight. You can stay with the maids for all I care," she walked inside the bedroom and shut the door.Grey let out a sigh. For once, he wished Charl
