“What! Are you for real?” Seth couldn’t believe his ears. The million-dollar deal was almost on his hands. He couldn’t believe it. Maria nodded briefly. “Exactly. Your new competitor is Diamond base company. So, by the end of this month, Protos Pubblicita will know who to actually award the contract to depending on certain data. We will be going through both companies to make our final decision. I hope for the best.” Seth nodded once. “What did you call the company name again? I’ve never heard of it.” “Oh yes,” Maria smiled. “It’s a new company with a nice future. Well, just as yours is a new company as well.” Seth cleared his throat meaningfully. “I understand. Thank you so much for the news, by the way. I appreciate it,” he smiled. “But may I have that company name again?” Maria nodded once. “Sure. It’s Diamond base company.” Seth nodded once and stood. “Thank you so much for this. I really appreciate it.” Maria stood as well. “You are welcome, Mr. Seth. I sincerely hope you g
Wait, it was all so confusing to him. Grey has founded a new company and he was in fact competing with him. It was at that moment that Seth realised that Grey and Hercules were two different personalities. Hercules was dead and Grey was competing with Seth. It all made sense to him. Also, if they were of the same person, the deal would have been off. The order would have been awarded to Grey and there wouldn’t even be anything as Maria had mentioned. Seth couldn’t wait to tell Smith about the news. Thank goddess, the three have an issue to fix initially. It would make him really happy if they beat Grey in business. . Smith arrived in Russia in no time but it all felt weird. Arnold and David’s men were always at some point around the place but suddenly, they weren’t. Smith had to stop and searched around for Arnold's men. It might really be difficult if he doesn’t do that because he wouldn’t be able to know where Arnold really was. After several searches, he couldn’t find them o
“You promised me!” Smith stressed. He felt disappointed and angered. “You promised to make Grey pay for everything he had done to me. Why are you suddenly changing your mind? Besides, you were supposed to go with the plan,” he had never been frustrated.“There’s something you don’t understand, Smith,” Arnold started suddenly. “We decided to help you out and now, we’ve decided not to anymore. There’s nothing you can do about it,” he smiled slightly. “Except to leave. “Exactly, Smith. This isn’t something to discuss. And we are not asking for your opinion,” David said.Smith clenched his fists beside him. “Don’t do this to me, Arnold! Why are you so scared?”Arnold's expression changed immediately. “That’s none of your concern! Leave now before I force you out!” He threatened in a thick voice to scare Smith away.Smith didn’t know what was happening and why they were suddenly being stubborn. He knew there was something to it but what could it have been?“Now!” David yelled at a once th
Grey rushed inside the room, his heart racing. The men they sent to Seattle have returned with Beatrice. Alfred informed them to drive her straight to the hospital where she was attended to immediately by Alfred's private doctor.Alfred and the doctor were inside the room when Grey walked inside. He hesitated as he watched the oxygen mask placed on Beatrice.“What’s going to happen to her?” He asked suddenly.Alfred and the doctor turned to look at him at once.“Well, she’s in an unstable condition but we will carry out some tests on her and let you know what is really wrong with her. These are just first aid treatments,” the doctor explained.Grey nodded once. “Do all in your power to save her. I will pay you privately and generally.”The doctor smiled so charmingly. He already knew what Grey was. “Thank you so much, Boss. I promise to put in all my best.”Grey nodded once and looked at Alfred. “I will speak with you later.”“Have you spoken to Aphrodite?” Alfred’s voice pulled Grey
Pain stabbed Grey, even harder. He couldn't believe his ears or maybe they were just playing tricks on him. It wasn't true. There was no way Caramel would abort their baby. They had a life together, didn't they? And everything was going well, even before she discovered who he really was. "Calm down, dear. You are just frustrated because of Beatrice. Beatrice would be fine, this I promise you. You don't need to get so worked up over it." Caramel blinked once and let the tears stream down her face. "I love you, Grey. I love you so much," she stressed as if she was battling with her inner voice. Grey nodded once. "I love you too, Caramel. And we can work this out." Caramel looked away for a moment as different thoughts collided in her mind in some sort of crazy confusion. "It can't work out, Grey. It can never work out. I've thought about the possibility before I aborted your baby. There's no going back now." It was when Grey snapped back to reality. "You aborted my baby? How could
Grey entered the car and hesitated. He stared into space. Maybe Caramel was right. At least, he got her into trouble the other time and it was because of him that Seth decided to use her to get him. If he wasn’t so close to her, that wouldn’t have happened. It was partially his fault.But what was he supposed to do? Being Hercules was his birthright and the only thing his father left behind. There was no fucking way he would even think of comparing both. He would never compare being Hercules with his love life.But he doesn’t know why it was affecting each other.His phone rang suddenly, jerking him out of his thoughts. It was Alfred.Grey released a sigh and picked it up. “Hello, Alfred.”“Hi Hercules, have you been able to get across to Aphrodite?”Grey let out another sigh. “No, I haven’t even had the time to. Have you? She should be at home now. Have you called one of her maids?”“Yes but she’s not at home. I’ve called her several times but she’s not picking up as well. I just ho
Seth walked inside Megaphone Attitude with a wide smile. That day was his lucky day. He was so happy about everything. He moved to his seat and signalled the barman closer. "Hello sir, what can I get you?" "Get me a champagne and_," he stopped as his gaze went over to Grey. He was shocked for a moment as he tried to look at him very well to be sure he wasn't only dizzy and that his eyes weren't playing tricks on him. "Yes, what do you want?" The barman repeated to attract his attention. Seth cleared his throat meaningfully. "Get me a bottle of champagne. I will let you know if I want more." The barman bowed slightly and walked away. Seth concentrated hard on Grey and noticed the lady in front of him. He wasn't able to see the lady's face and didn't know who she was but Grey kept on turning his face towards his direction. So, he was sure of him. That aside, he noticed some empty bottles in front of them. That meant that he had been drinking. Grey was skilled but being drunk wou
Grey stared down at the floor for a moment, as Seth's laughter rang in his ears. No matter how much he tried to get up, he was always falling back. His eyes were always seeing double. He stood still for a moment as one of the men raised the steel pipe in the air and aimed it at him. Grey closed his eyes as he decided to concentrate more on the sounds and not try to see. His vision was blurry anyways. There was no point opening it and trying to make himself feel more vulnerable. He listened carefully just as his father had taught him. He heard the movement of the leg and the way the steep pipe went through the air in an attempt to hit him. Grey rolled from the spot and kicked one of the guys close by on the leg. He got up quickly, with his eyes still closed. The men came at her at once. Grey heard them clearly as he bent so quickly, dodging one punch from behind. Because of his swift movement, the punch hit another guy by his left side. Grey jumped up and kicked at two more guys b
