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.
Grey got dressed in Dormeiul Vanquish Ii Suit and regarded himself in the mirror. He smiled at who was staring back at him in the mirror.His phone rang suddenly and he moved away to grab it. It was Aphrodite but it stopped ringing before he could pick it up.He was thinking of calling her back when a loud knock sounded on his door.Grey turned towards the door with raised brows and angry features. Who would be knocking at his door at that moment?"Are you going to open this door or should I burst it out!" A deep familiar voice said suddenly.Before Grey could react, the door opened and Charles stick his head inside with a smile.Grey smiled. "Charles!" "What! Were you expecting someone else?" Charles joked and stepped inside.Grey ignored his remark and moved forward to hug him. Charles was in Brioni Vanquish Ii Suit, a suit that looked as though it was tailored for him."I've missed you so much, man!"Grey hit his back slightly.Charles laughed. "Same here," he pulled back and looke
Grey, Charles, and Aphrodite got down from the car. Grey put on his face mask before getting down.They walked towards the entrance which was guarded by two hefty and strong-looking men."There were men before them. So, they had to wait as the security guards took the invites before they allowed them inside.Grey brought out the two invites and stretched them out to one of the men. Charles gave out his as well.One of the men regarded Grey for a moment. "Who are you and why do you use a nose mask?""He's Hercules," Charles revealed.The guy's eyes twitched but they were gone from his eyes as quickly as they had started. Instead, he stepped aside for them to enter.Grey, Aphrodite, and Charles entered the spacious hall and realised that it was almost filled up. And the auction has already started.Aphrodite did tell him that only a few do attend the auction but seeing how many people were, Grey was shocked.They walked to their seat, and though Charles turned away he soon returned with
Some of the people inside rushed out of the room at once."Giovanni planned this. He tricked us," Grey muttered.Aphrodite looked at Grey. "What!" She was more than shocked because she didn't even know that Grey had a plan in place already. She did know that he was going to do something but she had forgotten to ask him. That aside, no one followed them inside. So, she thought it was the end already.Giovanni looked at Grey with a dirty smirk on his face.The people were still trying to get out while there were a few men on the floor.Giovanni wasn't even concentrating on them as he walked out from the confines of the chairs.A bullet was suddenly being pointed at Grey from behind." Get up and move out from where you are," the strange voice ordered."What should we do?" Aphrodite asked anxiously as fear set in.Grey stood without a word, a smile on his face. "You amaze me, Giovanni.""Remove your mask!" Giovanni ignored his remark and instead yelled at him. He wanted to see that it wa
"Are you going home directly? Can we grab a cup of wine? It has been a while since I've drank with you," Charles said suddenly as he took a turn towards Grey's house.Grey reasoned it for a moment. "I'm not really in the mood to go anywhere but we could drink at my house."Charles brightened. "You could tell me about things I've missed as well because it seems like I've been gone forever."Grey smiled. "No problem. I don't know where to start but I will pick up from anywhere. Is that clear?"Charles made a rumble of laughter. "Alright. Why don't you start by telling me what is going on with you and Aphrodite? It looked like you two had grown together over a few weeks." He observed. Though, he heard some news about them.Grey huffed. "Aren't we supposed to be?"Charles smiled softly. "Of course but you should understand what I'm talking about already."Grey looked at him and feigned a confused look. "I sincerely don't understand."Charles grunted inwardly. "I'm talking about something
Smith smiled widely as he sat. “All done, isn’t it? It's just that I used everything I have to secure this loan. We must definitely get this contract or it won’t be easy on me.” “Same here, Smith. Even this company is standing on the muddy ground. We just have to do all we can to get this contract. Thank goodness we are on the last list. We only have to oust Grey and everything will go accordingly.” Smith smiled. “Exactly. But I’m happy we have a great opportunity.” Seth nodded once. “Same here, I’m so happy it’s a success. We can finally start thinking that the contract is ours.” Smith sat up. “Not yet. We still need to put some things into place.” “Really?” Seth raised a skeptical brow at him. “And what can that be?” Smith released a sigh. “We still need to talk about Grey for example. And I will be placing an order for the brands that we discussed. So, I think that isn’t up for discussion. What we should actually be discussing is Grey especially now that we've got everything i
