"That's not possible!" Grey said quickly.Charles pulled to a stop in accordance with the traffic light. He looked back at Grey. "I sincerely don't know what to tell you, Grey. It could happen and well, it might not be but we shouldn't rule out what Mattee told us. We should treat this case as if it's what it is. "Grey grunted. " It can never happen, Charles. Caramel might be inquisitive about who I am but she would never work with Alex behind my back, " he argued.Charles let out a sigh. " Alright, but why didn't she tell you that she met with Alex?"Grey couldn't answer. It was right, and Caramel could have done that. In fact, the other day that she said she wanted to discuss with Grey, he thought there was a matter they needed to resolve but they ended up having sex. Grey loved Caramel, no doubt about it. In fact, he was starting to trust her so much. Was he wrong to have done that?The rest of the drive to the suite was done in silence. Grey couldn't stop thinking of what Charle
Charles and Grey got home in the afternoon the next day. Charles pulled up at the garage. While Grey absentmindedly got down and went inside, Charles followed after.It was work hour and Grey knew that Caramel would be at work. So, he was going to wait."Boss, I forgot to tell you something," Charles said suddenly, dragging Grey out of his thought.Grey nodded briefly and moved to retrieve a bottle of champagne. Charles followed after. "Mattee gave you something last night but I forgot to tell you about it due to the issue on the ground, " He explained.Grey nodded briefly and turned to look at him. " What's all this about?""Mattee sent a jacket, it's bulletproof and one of its kind, " he explained and pulled out the jacket to show it to Grey. "You could wear it as a normal jacket and no one would notice it is bullet-proof," he smiled softly. " This is the best gift you've ever received." He complimented.Grey regarded it for a moment before he moved nearer to check it out. He was s
Grey huffed, unable to believe what was coming out of Hattie's mouth. He knew that Hattie was fed up with the progress of Victoria Skincare and would like to hasten things up before the CCS award. And well, despite her tries, she couldn't get the recipe or win against Victoria Skincare. So, now, she's trying to make Grey give up on his own. "Don't pretend as if you didn't hear what I've just said, " Hattie muttered with a dark frown on her face. Grey scoffed. "Because it sounded funny to the ears. Are you scared of losing? Because I don't know why you would utter such ridiculous things from your mouth, " he taunted. Linda nodded briefly, in a supportive way. "Yes, Mrs. Hattie. It's not in our hands to pull out. Every individual is expected to participate in the award-winning program. Pulling out is a crime. " Hattie sent her a dirty stare that Linda adjusted. "Well, I'm not asking you about people's opinions. I'm telling you what would benefit you. You had better follo
Grey blinked once, then twice. He didn't believe what he was hearing. "You saw Alex?" He had to act as though he was shocked. " And you gave him something? What could that be?"Caramel looked away for some moment. "Alex asked me who your father was," she said softly. "And he wanted me to get your strand of hair. Though, I have no idea what he was going to use it for." She explained.Grey raised skeptical brows and waited. "What? You didn't give my hair to Alex? Whose hair is with him then?""One of my entourage," she confessed.Grey was shocked. "But why? Aren't you as curious as Alex was?"Caramel smiled softly. "I used to be but not anymore. Well, I know you will tell me everything when it's time to."Grey smoothed her hair slowly, with a smile dancing on his face. "Thanks for trusting me, it really means a lot to me." Be expressed deeply and tilted his head to kiss her..David was still angry. He could t stop thinking about the embarrassment that Grey had cost him. If Grey hadn't
Grey walked closer, with a big smile plastered across his face. "Let's see."Todd looked up, with a pleasing smile. "Are you sure young man? You will be losing money just like the rest of the men here." He boasted.Grey nodded once. "Let's see how it goes," he took a seat between the men. The other men were wearing this uncomfortable look and it showed how much they were disappointed."How much are you playing with?"Grey thought for a moment. "Three hundred dollars. I'm obviously not as rich as you are."Todd laughed out loud. "That's fine, young man because you will definitely be losing them all." He sounded so sure of himself.Well, Grey didn't even have the time to learn games because he was too busy working to earn a living."So, who's going first?" Grey asked as he counted the cards to know it was 52.There was a smile on Todd's face. "You first, boy. I'm sure these two men will be willing to participate with us," a look of satisfaction marred his face.Grey nodded and shuffled
Tiana couldn't stop crying.Charles showed up from behind and hesitated when he saw Tiana. "Wait, Tiana is the murderer, or has he escaped?""She is," Grey responded as his gaze searched around quickly. "We need to leave here immediately. Todd's men are all around looking for you," he explained.Charles nodded once. "I saw them when I was coming here."Grey regarded Charles for a moment. "Take her to the car, I will meet you guys there soon," he finished and walked ahead, just as three men showed from afar.Charles led Tiana away quickly to the car.Grey hesitated in front of the men. "you won't find him here. He got away quickly," he lied.The men regarded him for a moment. "How are you so sure?" One of them asked."Well, as you can see, I'm just coming from that direction. I've searched everywhere but he's not around here. So, I thought he left already," he explained."Who are you by the way?" One of the men asked."Well, he's the man that saved Boss from the bullet. He deserved so
"You have to speak to your daughter! Because I don't understand what is wrong with her!" Emma expressed angrily.Avery sighed. "Mom, you can't force me to do things."Benjamin looked at Avery. "Avery, your mother wants the best for you. You have to do this to make her happy."Avery looked at her father. "Wait, dad. Is this supposed to make her happy or the best for me? How can I even approach him? Would it make sense that I divorce him and I suddenly want to marry him again?" She raised her voice slightly.It was morning and her parents wouldn't stop talking to her about marriage. Victoria Skincare was getting even more popular. Fortunately, CCS was near and it was certain that Grey would be competing with Hattie very hard. Since Grey was getting, even more, better in business, the family excluding Lucy wants her to marry Grey again so they could at least protect the family from bankruptcy.Emma huffed. "Come on, Avery. We all know how Grey was hesitating to leave you. He would defini
Grey drove right to Alfred’s house after work. Charles informed the elders about the meeting and they decided to meet at Alfred's house instead of going to the hotel like they used to."How is he doing?" Grey asked when he settled down.They all knew who he was referring to. And they knew it was only good that Grey was taking care of him and not killing him for all he did."He's getting better but he still hasn't regained his memory," Alfred revealed.Grey nodded briefly. "Let's go straight into the discussion then. I need the plan to evaluate the spies once and for all. I need to officially pronounce myself Hercules."Alfred regarded him for a moment. "Do you think it's the time to do that?"Gregory groaned. "I guess the time will never come, or will it?""Well, I don't think we need to delay it any longer. Leo was the one that killed the previous Hercules. I don't think it should delay Hercules from pronouncing himself." Jayden explained.Luciano sighed. "I think Jayden is right. We
