Grey felt a soft hand over his face. He smiled inwardly at the effect of it on his body."Aren't you going to sleep on the bed?" The soft voice reached his ears. It sounded exactly like Caramel.You know, it doesn't matter if they were fighting. He just wanted to sleep close to her till it was morning. Then, they could think of something in the morning.He was just too tired to think at that moment. He had been through a lot of stress earlier in the day anyways.And he knew he might never see her again. It was the only chance that he had. Tonight was the only time he could hold her in his arms.Even Though it felt strange, he was only going to sleep."Grey? Are you ok?" A familiar voice reached his ears.He opened his eyes and concentrated them on Aphrodite. Actually, at first, he thought it was Caramel."What are you doing here? You should be sleeping."Aphrodite smirked. "I've been sleeping for a while now. I'm not an idiot!" she stressed funnily.Grey chuckled. "You are not, Aphrod
Smith stood awake the whole night trying to find out what could have happened with Arnold. He found none and decided to continue with what he and Seth had planned to do.He arrived at Seth's company, a smile on his face. At least, he was able to find something to do before Arnold and David decided to betray him.Smith walked inside the company. He met Seth on the way out."Smith!" Seth called out happily.They both exchanged pleasantries."I didn't know you were coming back so quickly."Smith smiled. "Well, I told you I was. Where are you going now? Can we talk?"Seth nodded briefly. "That can wait, let's go inside my office to talk. We have a lot to discuss," he turned around and led Smith to his office. He was able to get a small amount of money to get a nice plaza for his new business. In fact, he was able to employ some workers for important positions and left aside other positions."Is there something I should offer you?" Seth inquired as they entered the office. He moved to his
“I will be the one to call the police because this is my company!” Grey yelled at them.Seth ignored him as he moved aside to speak with whoever he wanted.“Please sir, we need to finish up with the interview! You can’t barge in like this. It’s uncalled for!” The lady scolded.Smith looked at her with clenched teeth. “ You better watch your mouth or you will be beaten!” He yelled at her.The lady recoiled back in fear.Grey regarded Smith for a moment. “If you don’t leave at this moment, you will regret it,” he warned.“Or what?” Smith had a smirk on his face as he watched Grey. “There’s absolutely nothing you can do. How were you even able to find this place? I bet you took loans from the bank so that you would be able to get the order but I’m sorry to shut your illusion, this order is ours!” He stated strongly and with so much determination before he moved to join Seth.The lady turned to Grey. “What do we do about it, boss?”Grey regarded the lady for a moment. “Who are you by the
“Boss! Please, don’t fire me. I’m so sorry sir. It would never happen again,” he pleaded but the line already went off before he could finish talking. Grey scoffed and stretched the phone out to the police. The police took it from Grey. “Please, help me beg the boss. Don’t let him fire me.” “You had better get your men out of this place or you will face more consequences,” he threatened and looked at the man that has been standing beside him for a while. “ Please, offload the furniture,” he said casually and walked past Seth and Smith and into the company. Seth and Smith moved closer to the man. By now, the men from the furniture company were already taking down the chairs and tables, ignoring them. “What is happening? Why are you withdrawing?” The man sighed, frustrated and sad. “See, I have no time for this. My job is on the line.” The police rushed inside behind Grey and communicated with the other police until they were all out of the vicinity. Seth and Smith were shocked a
Smith and Seth got back to the company and we're patiently waiting for Maria."Actually, before Maria shows up, I think we should discuss an important thing," Smith started suddenly.Seth looked at him. "Is everything alright?"Smith nodded briefly. "But I just thought there are things that are supposed to be in place and I think are very essential to the order we are aiming at."Seth sat up. "Tell me. As long as it involves the order, I will do anything," he assured.Smith nodded once. "I think you need to restock with a lot of brands over here. If we are going to show Maria and Protos Pubblicita that we can take care of the order, then we should have restocked. So, it won't be like we were only waiting on the order."Seth thought about it for a moment. "It's a nice idea but I've got nothing on me at the moment. I've spent all my money in this place especially after I discovered the order. But now that you are talking about it, I think you are making a lot of sense," he affirmed. "Bu
Seth nodded briefly. "That's actually cool, isn't it, Smith?" Smith smiled. "Very cool," he admitted.. "That aside, we will be letting you shoot with our face of the year. With this, it would release to the massive public that you are managing Herc and that it can't be found anywhere," Maria explained. Smith smiled at the arrangements. "I love that, actually." "Like I said, you won't have any problem. If this works up, you will always get hit up whenever we have any new order." "Seriously?" Smith's eyes sparkled at this. Maria nodded once. "We will always get new designs for our Herc. So, you will always be informed and as usual, the public would see that you are in charge," she reminded. Seth nodded briefly. "Great. I love this." "Yes, we know you would. It's a new added features. And it's not finished yet. Your company will get featured in our magazine. We will be promoting it so much." "This is great," Seth said and looked at Smith. "Right?" "Right, thank you for doing th
"Seriously? Are you for real?" Aphrodite laughed.Grey joined in, his head calculating how it was supposed to be."What if they see through it?" Aphrodite questioned."It doesn't matter. But we would have served our purpose before they did. Right, Jimmy?"Jimmy hesitated. "I'm not fully sure about it, Boss. I hope we can really make a copy.""I and Aphrodite will hold the photocopy actually. They won't really look at it because of who we are in society. Anyways," he sat up. "I only need a few men. I can handle myself.""You really want to attend," Aphrodite let out a sigh. "Alright then, I will get prepared for it. You will come and pick me up right?"Grey released a long sigh as he sat up "Sure, why won't I?"Aphrodite smiled. "Good then. I will go and get prepared. I will be waiting for you."Grey nodded briefly. "Alright, wear a nice dress that will bring out your shape." He joked."As if it's a party," Aphrodite smirked and opened the door, and got down. She hesitated, a smile on
Grey stepped back instead and smiled. "It's ok, actually. I understand you perfectly, so you don't need to explain. If you can be ready tomorrow morning, I will show you where your mother is. Also, I'm already working with Alfred to get you a nice house so you can leave here and wait elsewhere for your mother," he explained.Caramel regarded him for a moment. "Can I stay here?"Grey raised skeptical brows at her. "What?""I want to be here until my mother is alright. Then we can leave."Grey smirked. "Why would you want to do that? You've already made your thoughts known to me. There's no reason to pull back. We will do as I have said."Caramel sighed. "I'm sorry for hurting you, Grey and I don't want you to continue to think of it.""It doesn't work like that, Caramel. You can't just dish out what you want at any time. It has been finalised. You will get your house and leave here. There are no more options," he stated strongly.Caramel shook her head briefly. "Alright but I'm sorry.
