The car pulled off in the garage, and Grey got down. Charles was already down as well. "Who will you like to see first?" Grey thought for a moment. "Let's have a chat with the attendant first. She seemed to be saying something the other time that got me interested," he hinted. Charles nodded briefly, " alright, follow me then," he walked forward while Grey followed behind. He entered a hallway and walked for a while as well. "Even if you refuse to employ a maid just yet, we will need someone to keep the whole place clean. You wouldn't want to leave this place dirty till you proclaim yourself as Hercules, right?" Grey sighed. " I will do something about it. I plan on seeing Linda, perhaps there are some people she can recommend. Giovanni doesn't know about her so it would be easy to get at least two maids," he explained. Charles nodded. " I will do some underground investigation on them after you have selected them." " Well, I have Jimmy for that. He seems to be skilled in those
Grey clenched his teeth against the accusations. " Did he threaten you?"Tiana shook her head briefly. "He said he would pay me $10,000," she confessed.Grey felt a stab of annoyance. " You sold your dignity for this little amount of money?"Tiana nodded briefly. " My son is suffering from Cancer. He's going to die without the appropriate surgery. He's the only one I've got and I don't want to let anything happen to him," she started crying afresh. " I'm so sorry, I really am. I'm so tired of this position! I'm so tired of having oral sex with him. It got to a point when I refused but he forced me to do it. I did it with a bullet to my head," she cried even harder." Do you deserve to die or not?" Grey asked suddenly, startling her for a moment.He watched Grey for a moment and slowly nodded. "I do, no matter how much I think about it. I think I do. I'm just worried for my son. I don't want him to die," she cried harder. " But maybe it's too late. My son only has today to live or mayb
The ropes were too tight around her and there was no way to lose it.Grey grunted and pulled away, frustrated.Tiana was still watching him in amazement. "Why are you doing this to me? Why are you helping me?"" Why am I doing it?" He smiled. " Because you will serve me wholeheartedly."Tiana started sobbing afresh. " I promise to serve you till I die, Hercules. Thank you so much! Thank you!"" And you still have to tell me all you know and I've heard, alright?"Tiana nodded quickly. " You don't need to ask me. I will not leave anything behind. I promise and I will forever serve you," she swore.Grey smiled. " Good. What's your name by the way?"" Tiana Elrod."Grey sent the names as a text message to Jimmy and added the gender since the next was Fred but he was waiting so that he could get his surname as well.Grey's phone rang suddenly and it was Don. He picked it up immediately."Hello boss, the doctor would like to speak with the mother of the kid before they start. Though, they a
"That's absurd! Why would you even come up with such an idea?" Charles complained.Grey moved closer to him and took the knife from him. " Why do you think so?""Because_," he started and stopped almost immediately. He looked at Tiana. "Let's talk elsewhere."Grey chuckled and cut the rope loose. " You should get a bath. I will send you some clothes so that you can change. Then, we can discuss more on our way back to Jacksonville."Tiana bowed. " Thank you so much, Hercules. Thank you so very much."Grey nodded once and looked at Charles. " Send one of your men to provide her with clothes but warned him that if he tries something stupid, his balls will be the breakfast for the dogs," he warned.Charles sighed. " I seriously need to speak with you," he stressed.Grey moved his head slightly. " Can you please tell your men to attend to Tiana, so we can move to the next person?"Charles let out a sigh and looked at Tiana. " Let's go," he invited and walked out with her.One of the men wa
The door opened suddenly and Charles walked inside.Grey turned to look at him. "Where's Fred?""Caught. He's in the other room, awaiting your order," he responded.Grey nodded briefly and looked at Cole. "I will soon be done here. It turns out I won't need to waste my time too much since Fred has been caught," he muttered.Cole groaned as he tried to regain himself. "Has he said a word?" "He's acting stubborn. I need you to bring his child and wife here. Maybe he would talk by then," he teased." Please, don't take my family. I'm begging you," he expressed.Grey turned to look at Cole. " Why should I listen to you?"Cole groaned. "Please, don't hurt them. I'm begging you," he cried." Then, I'm going to be asking you for the last time. Who sent you, Cole?"Cole groaned inwardly. " I don't know, I receive orders from the phone."Grey regarded him for a moment. " How did he collect your number? Who is the middleman?"Cole groaned again. "Todd."" Todd?" Grey repeated. " Who's that?"
Grey car was waiting for him at the Port. He dropped Tiana at the hospital before he decided to speed home. He remembered something on his way. He placed a call to Linda and she picked up immediately. "Hello, boss." "Hello, I need to speak with you. Where are you currently?" " Well, I'm still at work. I decided to settle some things before I retired home. Is something wrong?" " No, but wait for me. I will be there soon," he finished up and hung up. He knew that if someone was seriously after him, then he might need to lure them to the company. He needed to know who was looking for him. He pulled up in front of Victoria Skincare company and walked inside. Linda was waiting for him in the lobby. "Good day, sir. It has been a while," she meets him with a wide smile. Grey reciprocated it. "Maria told me some things and I decided to see you concerning it. Though I can speak with my mother concerning it there's something else you must know," he informed. Linda nodded briefly. " Shou
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.Luc
It was impossible! How could a diamond like this be the fake one?"Are you kidding me? Are you trying to scam me?" Avery yelled in anger. " I'm telling you the truth, miss. We don't scam here. Whoever gave you that knows it's not the real diamond because no one can sell or buy that for even twenty million dollars. I'm only buying it from you because I was fascinated by it but no one will do it. You will never get a buyer for it," he stated.Avery took her diamond from him and rushed out of the store. It was impossible! There was no way the diamond would be fake. The manager must be trying to extort money from her.So, she decided to try her grandfather's friend. Her grandfather's friend would definitely do her well and he would never lie to her.She should have thought of it initially instead of wasting her time.She soon arrived at Lucy's friend's store. Avery didn't know his name but she does refer to him as grandpa too.There were days when Avery usually visited him. In fact, he g
