“You think I care?” Smith spat out, his eyes almost glowing. “And lemme warn you this last time. If you and your useless husband love yourself, never meddle with me ever again!” He warned sternly.“Are you like this because grandfather isn’t around?” Avery accused.Smith regarded them for a moment before he walked out of the house in anger.Avery took in a deep breath and looked up at Grey, a bit touched by his action.“Are you alright?” She sounded worried.Grey nodded once. “I’m fine,” he lied and moved towards the room.Three maids rushed inside.Avery regarded them for a moment before she went for the first aid box. She didn’t know how much damage the chocolate had done to Grey but she knew that he was just lying about being fine.It was her fault anyways. And if Grey hadn’t hugged her, she wondered where the chocolate would have spilled on.When she walked inside the room, Grey was staring in the mirror and the shirt was still on him.“Are you truly ok?” Avery hesitated by the do
Grey regarded the Robinson family for a moment before he picked his fork. Spaghetti Bolognese was served.Avery looked at Grey, remembering what he did for her the previous night. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't stop thinking about it."Are you alright, Avery?" Emma demanded, her gaze hovering over her for a moment." Yes, mom. It's actually_," she trailed off, looking over at Smith with icy eyes.Smith smiled softly as if daring her to speak up."So, how was the appointment with Protos Pubblicita?" Lucy brought up suddenly, interrupting Avery from what she was about to say."Fine," Avery responded quickly. "We decided to bring in a model from our side. And we settled on Chloe," she announced.Smith's gaze shot up. " Behind me? How could you decide on that alone?" His angry voice boomed.Lucy looked at him, confused. " What do you mean by that? Weren't you present at the meeting? Didn't you discuss it together?"Smith sighed and hesitated. " Hercules didn't allow it. Jane m
Grey barely pulled to a stop in front of Don's house when Don and Richard hopped in. "Good afternoon Boss," they chorused at the same time.Don sat in the passenger's seat while Richard took the back seat."Do you want me to drive?" Richard offered.Grey shook his head and pulled out of the parkway in a rough way that Richard almost knocked his head at the front seat."That's rough, Boss," Richard complained."Seat belt, Richard. Why are there seatbelts?" Richard muttered. He was in fact in a hurry to meet with Lan.The message Lan sent the day before indicated that they had just a few minutes to speak and he didn't want to waste time."So, start talking to Don," he urged."Ok, we have good news and bad news. Which one would you like to hear first?" Don jibed." Goodnews should come first.""So, Audrey's family isn't in the city. In fact, most people thought he had no family. Guess what?" Don said excitedly. " I realized he's trying to keep his family off his dirty business," he reve
Don laughed. "Why do I feel like it's very impossible? I'm not trying to be pessimistic but we couldn't even get your identity, how are we supposed to get Giovanni's son? " He questioned, bewildered." Yes, Boss. He's right. There's no way we will be able to find him. We don't even have a hint of what he looks like, " Richard chimed in.Grey smiled. " Who said I was going to find out?"Don stared, shocked. "But you just did, " he pointed out.Grey chuckled. " Don, you are very funny when you do that. Well, I didn't mean it like that. What I was trying to say was that we will make Giovanni's son come out on his own. "Don blinked once, confused. " What do you mean?"" When Richard thought I was getting into trouble with Audrey, he revealed my identity. His son is going to do the same," he expressed." How? We don't even know him," Richard stressed.Grey nodded once. " We might not know him but we know where to find him. If Giovanni's son is really in town, he would in no doubt visit h
It took Grey a while before the information would finally settle in. As usual, it looked like James got into trouble. Grey shook his head briefly, James was always getting into trouble. And he was going to protect him, as usual.Grey hurried back to the car and picked a nose mask. He needed to hide his face because he would still be visiting Atomic Liquors. He kept the face mask and ran after the men and realized that had chased James out of the vicinity. He saw where they were going and knew how to corner them. He knew the street like the palm of his hand anyways. He had always delivered to that part of the world."Get right here, you bastard!" One of the men yelled in frustration.Grey heard this and knew he was near. He hastened up and eventually collided with James again.Grey caught him before he fell and pulled him back up. "Are you already?"James nodded briefly. He was almost out of breath. "I am but," he looked up and his eyes went wide with shock. "What are you doing her
"You are in a serious mess and you are clapping. These men have seen your face. How would you do it?" Grey asked, worriedly.James sighed and his expression morphed into a dark frown. "I know. I guess I'm going to stay hidden for a while," he sighed. "Thanks for saving me anyways."Grey regarded him for a moment. " Is something wrong? Why are these men after you anyways? Did you support Hercules in Atomic Liquors again? " He teased.James burst out into laughter that lasted for a minute. " That was funny but no! Damn! I was drunk that day," he protested.Grey shrugged slightly. " You could be drunk now."James shook his head amidst another round of laughter. "No! Not that actually," he became sober again. "I'm investigating. "Grey raised skeptical brows. " Investigating? Are you a police officer?" James shook his head quickly. " I'm not. I was just looking for someone and I thought she was here. But that doesn't even look to be the case, " he said dejectedly. Grey regarded it for a
Grey stared for a moment, shocked. Lan did tell him that his wife and daughter were the ones kidnapped by Audrey.So, somehow, if they weren't in Audrey's house. Then, they would be somewhere else. Grey just didn't have a slight hint of where she could be.Perhaps, she had been killed. Well, he couldn't be sure but he silently hoped that she was alive. Well, Grey promised to keep Lan's family saved. All, and not just one."Though, I wonder what Audrey was doing with these kids," Gregory's voice brought Grey out of his thoughts.Grey looked at him. "Thanks, Gregory, I really appreciate this. I will fix them where to stay, they wouldn't be a problem to you," he assured.Gregory nodded. " I will be in the house if you need my help," he took a short bow and walked away.Grey looked at the children for a moment until his gaze rested on a girl that wasn't with other girls. She had her head on her knees, and her legs pulled together.Grey didn't know what she was doing but there was a high p
Nora couldn't stop thinking. She lost the appetite to eat, especially seeing that she was hopeless. She cried several times while blaming herself for abandoning Grey. She slept late the night before and found it even difficult to do anything that morning.Who would have thought that Seth would leave her? She had always thought he was going to propose to her. Well, he showered her with a lot of gifts and did everything to please her.But she was just too blind. She could have stayed with Grey. She knew that Grey would never leave her. It was something she was very sure of. Grey wasn't like other men. In fact, there were some things that she hated about Seth but had to keep up with him because he had the money.But Grey was perfect, except for the fact that he was poor. Somehow, that personality was changing.A loud bang on the door jotted her out of her mind. She sighed and got up forcefully. It felt like she had a heavy weight on her head.She opened the door and gave Tracy a cold gla
