"So, are we accepting?"Grey looked up at Jane and nodded briefly. " We are and we will be attending the interview."Jane nodded briefly.Grey stood up. "I will leave then since there are no other things to attend to."The moment he walked out of the elevator, his phone rang suddenly. It was Beatrice."Hello, Beatrice.""Grey! Hattie has been arrested!" She announced. "It's all over the internet," she expressed happily.Grey nodded briefly. "I told you. And even though Giovanni rescues her, there will still be some leftovers of what she had done. That should keep her off for now.""Yes, later then." And the phone went off.Grey pulled a call to Maria and she picked up immediately. "Hello, Maria.""Good morning boss." Maria sounded clear from the other end."There's a piece of ongoing news about Hattie. You have to take your report because it must appear in our magazine till CCS day.""Noted sir, I will send some people toward the location and we will start preparing the news asap," sh
When Grey got home, Gregory and Charles were already waiting for him. It took him a while actually because he had to sort out some things at Protos Pubblicita.They were having a cup of wine when he walked down the stairs after a change of clothes."So, may we know what this plan is all about?" Gregory started.Grey nodded briefly, and poured himself a glass of wine. "A big plan, Gregory," he took a seat beside Gregory. "The three of us will have to go to my estate. We caught one of Charles' men that was spying on us and trying to find out how Hercules looks like."Gregory gathered his brows. "Seriously? We seems to have a lot of spies admist us.""Yes," Charles confirmed. "I didn't know and I've been with him for some years now. It seemed like it was planned," he explained."So, Fred is still my prisoner. So, I plan to let him go. Actually, it would look like he escaped. It will be staged," he explained."So, you mean that Fred would be the first person that would spread the news abo
Grey, Gregory, and Charles left the estate late so that Fred would be able to get as further as he could. Gary went with him, so Charles noticed. Though, he knew it was Gary that would plan his escape out of the spacious estate."So, it's a success?" Gregory asked when they walked out to the car earlier the next morning.Charles nodded briefly. "I think it is since Gary isn't even back till now."Gregory entered the car. "He probably wanted to make sure Fred arrived safely or to make sure it's believable."Grey nodded briefly. "I guess that's the case. We should go back to Jacksonville and wait for the result," he suggested.Everyone nodded in agreement before they entered the car.On the plane back home, Charles kept failing Gary's phone but he wasn't picking up. The job alone was tiring, so at one point, he was frustrated.He looked over at Grey. "Do you have an idea why Gary wouldn't pick up?"Grey darted at his watch. "It's over five hours already and we will be arriving in Jacks
Gregory looked at Grey. "You think something is amiss?"It was evening already and the elders gathered at Alfred's house. Thomas and Gary have arrived with the rest of the men but Charles told them to stay at his house. The meetings with the elders have to come first."We need to move faster. We need to make Giovanni think there's really no Hercules," Grey started."How do we do this?" Jayden demanded."Anything that will strike as suspicious. Get the men to guard my estate unnecessarily. Get a man to go to my estate dressed like me. There should be a mask and others," Grey explained."What do we do with Gary then?" Charles asked suddenly. "Grey feels something is way off about him.""You need to ask him questions when he gets here. I mean he would definitely have the answers to what we want."Grey thought about it for a moment. "Let's play it slowly. We don't really know at this moment if Gary is a spy or not. We have to be careful. And for the meantime, we still have to continue pre
Grey relaxed in his chair. "Instinct, Gary. Now, drive to 5star hotel and suites. Whoever you are scared of might be watching us at this moment."Gary nodded briefly and pulled out into the street. They barely drove a few minutes when Grey noticed a black car trailing them. At first, it looked normal as if the car was merely driving but Grey was having his drive."Gary, take the left way," he ordered.Gary nodded briefly. "It looked like someone was after us."Grey nodded briefly. "I've been watching the black car for a while now."Gary took the turn and a sigh escaped him when no car followed but suddenly, after driving for some minutes, the car came from behind again."I said it," Grey confirmed."What do we do?" Gary asked, confused."Pull off at Alfred's restaurant. We will soon be there. It's at the right," he dictated.Gary nodded briefly and complied.Grey placed a call to Alfred which he didn't pick up until after the second ring."Hello, Hercules.""Hi, are you at your resta
Grey placed a call to Charles on his way home. That was after he had spoken to Don and told him things he must do and how it must be visible. But he was yet to let Charles know the second spy was Thomas. Grey had gone back to pick up his car while Todd went home in a cab. Charles picked up as Grey entered his house. "Hi, Grey. Where are you?" "I'm at home. And I was able to speak with Gary. You can come to Protos Pubblicita tomorrow so I can tell you about everything. Though, I want you to beware of Thomas. He's the new spy that was implanted by Giovanni." "Alright, I will be there tomorrow then. But I didn't know Thomas could be the spy. Though, I still wonder what is really going on. I will tell Gregory to be careful too." "Alright." . Gary walked out of the living room after speaking with Charles casually. He noticed that Charles had also changed the way he talked to him, which could only be because Grey had informed him of the latest news. He was walking towards the gard
"What!""You heard me right, Mr. Grey," Tina laughed and stepped out of the elevator.Grey regarded them for a moment before he walked out as well, and towards Jane's office.He knocked slightly and when there was no response, opened the door and walked inside. Jane was sipping her coffee."What's all these all about? Aren't you supposed to be prepared? We have an appointment this morning!" Grey has been pissed off already.Jane smiled. "Easy! I will be ready soon. Do you have to shout?" She stood. "Have you heard about the news? Turns out that Hercules was dead or do you also know about it?"Grey sighed. "How can I? Am I at all familiar with him?""Well, you do receive orders from him, don't you?""And you as well. The last time I checked, you were the only one that could communicate with Hercules. So, I don't know why the question was being directed at me."Jane regarded him for a moment before she burst into laughter. "Alright! You always find something to say," she stood and gathe
Chris felt a stab of annoyance. He had spent a lot to make sure the other antagonists were eliminated until it got to SU world. He even paid some of the workers. Who would have thought he wouldn't be winning the contract after all the stress he had gone through? Grey walked closer to him, with a smile plastered all over his face. "Hi, Chris." Chris gave him a dark frown. "You must be happy that you won the contract." Grey laughed. "Are you expecting me to be sad? Well, it felt good to realize you lost to me." Chris clenched his teeth together. "Have you forgotten? Hercules is dead. Do you think Alfred will help you forever? Especially after this recent news?" "Why don't you leave that for me? But for the meantime, enjoy the loss," he finished and walked towards Spinfluence workers. . The workers of Protos Pubblicita were also murmuring and discussing the news when Grey walked inside. A knock sounded on the door quickly. "Mr. Grey, it's Maria." "Alright, come inside," Grey in
