"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
Grey stared into space, as lots of thoughts collided in his mind in some sort of crazy confusion. He was thinking of a lot of things.At first, he had to think about Naomi and the fact that she could even be part of Pablo's escort. Though, she tried to see the connection between the two.Why would Audrey hold Belle hostage but release Naomi for Pablo?Something wasn't right somewhere and he was going to find out that night.A loud knock pulled him out of his thoughts and he looked up. "Yes, come in."The door opened and Maria walked inside. "Boss, you asked of me."Grey nodded once. "I need your help. I just brought a company but I have no idea what to do with it. So, for now, I want to have it closed pending the time I would find a nice business to start," he explained.Maria's face was enveloped in a big smile. " Really? I will gladly help sir. It's no problem for me."Grey reciprocated her smile. " Thanks. You can leave whenever you are free to do so. I will give you a tip for it."
Grey stayed late at work intentionally. That aside, he couldn't stop thinking about what he was supposed to use kk corporation for.That aside, he dialed Lan's number several times but he didn't pick up. He didn't want to send a text, so he let it off.Though, he decided to try later that evening.Grey was ushered into the room with some food and drinks while he awaited the escort.Grey passed away the time with the champagne. It wasn't that he was going to spend much time there anyways. He wouldn't even take up to an hour. He only needed to find Naomi's whereabouts.It didn't take up to some minutes before the door opened and a lady walked inside, dressed in exposing clothes. She hesitated before the door and gave Grey a seducing smile before she walked inside and closed the door behind her.She moved to Grey. "You are handsome," she complimented as she drooled over him for a moment.Grey placed the cup of wine on the table and looked at the lady. "I'm not here for this. I'm here fo
Grey got down from the car with a sigh. He had decided to push the thoughts to the back of his mind. The security was complaining when Grey got down from the car but he decided to turn a deaf ear to his complaint, and instead walked into the house He collapsed on the chair, tired. Then, he remembered that he didn't have dinner and he was starving already.A maid walked out suddenly with a tray of whatever. She moved to the dining, placed the tray on the table, and turned to Grey."I made spaghetti Bolognese for you," she announced.Grey looked up, shocked for a moment. It was the first time that the maid would be making his food. Not when Smith was around. Smith had warned him severally on that and Grey wasn't ready for confrontation."You did what?" He asked, shocked. Perhaps, he heard it wrong."I made spaghetti Bolognese for you," she repeated.Grey's mouth dropped open in shock. It felt like he had entered the wrong house. Or perhaps Smith set a trap for him. He must be very car
Don ushered Grey inside and they both stared down at the phone on the table.Different thoughts were colliding in Grey's mind."You told me Lan sent you a text yesterday, right?" Don started.Grey nodded briefly. " He did and he wants us to meet. He sent the location as well."" Well," Don shrugged slightly. " This code might mean nothing. As far as we know, the message came from an unknown source. Why did you think it's from Lan?"Grey regarded Don for a moment. He was right anyways but he couldn't stop thinking something was wrong somewhere."Who sent the code then?" Grey questioned.Don shrugged again. " It could be anyone. It could be a random message."" That would come in at such a time? The timing was perfect. It looked like someone was trying to make us see something, I just don't know what. I mean it wouldn't be a coincidence." he complained.Don let out a sigh. " What should we do now?*Grey relaxed in his chair. " Give me some moments, I need to think it through. Then, we w
Lucy stepped inside his room to get ready for work. He wasn't the CEO now but he still felt the need to go to work and sometimes supervise.His eyes went to the stainless steel wristwatch that he placed carelessly by the lampstand. He disregarded it because it was an imitation.When he got home on his birthday, he saw the watch on the table and took it inside. Grey must have intentionally dropped it so he could take it.Well, Lucy wanted to be accommodating for once and decided to accept the gift even though it wasn't worth it.Well, he never expected anything from him seeing that he was just striving in the business world.Just as Lucy turned to leave, he hesitated and decided to take the watch over to his friend's store. His friend was a large wholesaler and retailer in all forms of wristwatches.Since Grey argued that the watch was real. He was going to prove it to him. And if it turned out to be an imitation, Grey would be punished for lying.So, Lucy took the wristwatch and walke
