Grey got ready for the meeting which was coming up in an hour. He walked out, clad in a blue suit.Aphrodite walked closer to him. "Are you going alone?"Grey nodded once as he made his tie. "They invited me alone. So, it's normal that I'm going alone."Aphrodite stepped forward to help him. "Alright. I heard everything from Alfred. Are you sure it's really going to be alright? Or does that mean we are trapped in Italy?"Grey shook his head negatively. "Trust me, Novia. I will find a way very soon. Let's just leave Giovanni to enjoy it a bit longer," he suggested.Aphrodite finished, stepped back, and let out a smile. "I'm counting on you."Grey sent her a nice smile as well. "How is Thomas doing?"Aphrodite laughed at this. "Seriously? Don't act as if you are worried about him," she didn't wait for him to say more before she walked into the kitchen.Grey regarded her for a moment before he walked out of the house. Two men were already waiting for him in the car he was taking.The doo
"What?" Grey was shocked for a moment. "Are you sure about this?"Grey might have hated his butt but he wouldn't believe that he would work against his company. He could have been transferred to another company but he still worked under Hercules under normal circumstances."Yes, boss. I saw him and Hercules meet yesterday. They even discussed for so long and I'm still unable to get what they talked about," Don explained.Grey nodded briefly. "Continue spying on him. I will get Maria to fire him.""Alright boss," Don responded.Grey hung up and went deep into thought for a moment. Giovanni thought Hercules was dead. Ok, David doesn't know that Grey was Hercules and Giovanni wouldn't have told him. So, David joined hands with Giovanni to bring Grey down.David has just the boldness to even think of it. Grey was going to destroy the place.He placed a call to Maria which she picked up immediately. "Hello, boss.""Yes, Maria. How are you doing?""Fine boss, I just finished a meeting with
Grey and Charles locked their gaze for a moment. "What?" Charles giggled. "I saw them together on my way home. The guy is really going to have her if you don't hurry up."Grey looked away. "I didn't say I loved her enough to date her. If she's happy with someone, she should stay with him," he stood up."And you are sure that you aren't going to regret it?" Charles asked suddenly, stopping him in his tracks.Grey released a sigh, unsure of what to say. "Are you certain? It's going to hurt you so much, I'm sure of it." Grey hesitated before he eventually walked inside, leaving Charles giggling right at him.Charles was right but Grey didn't want to think about it, not yet anyways. His phone beeped suddenly and a message appeared on the screen of his phone.He read through the message and smiled. Maximo was ready to let him meet with James that night..Alex muttered some inaudible under his breath. He sighed and dropped the file in his hands.It had been a lot of months since he had
Giovanni made a nod of his head, a smile on his face. "Good. I must do all it takes to be the next king of the world. Nothing must stop me." "Exactly. I'm not even sure anything can stop you. Hercules is gone. So, we just have to focus on the billionaire president from other countries. I'm sure it would be a success," Lawrence, one of his elders assured. Giovanni nodded again, with a satisfied grin on his face. "Alright, no problem." They raised their glasses, cheering for their victory but the door opened suddenly and one of Giovanni's men walked inside. Giovanni looked up, his expression changed slightly, "What is it?" He bellowed. The man bowed slightly. "I have some information concerning the young boss, sir. I thought I should let you know about it as quickly as possible.” Giovanni groaned inwardly. “Tell me about it then.” “The young master invited some guests to his house. He made it look like a club. In fact, they are currently partying,” he announced. Giovanni couldn’t
Grey took the letter from him and tore it. He hesitated before he read through what was written on it. He hesitated, confused. The message in the letter was very confusing. Aphrodite wanted him to come to a particular place. And that was why Grey found it confusing. Though, he was relieved. At least, it means he knew where Aphrodite was currently.But there was something else he needed to think about. Aphrodite could have called him to come over. She didn’t need to be sending letters to him as if they were strangers. Or could it be that she wanted to surprise him with something? Aphrodite could act naughty sometimes. Or maybe her phone was off or perhaps, stolen. Grey didn’t want to have dirty thoughts. Well, he knew that Aphrodite could handle herself. That aside, she could even be with Thomas. But there was no point in her calling him if she was really with Thomas. Those two, as Charles had said earlier, have gotten so close that they do things secretly too. They go places too, to
Several men walked out, dressed in black attire and they attacked him immediately. The next sudden kick from three men caught Grey off-guard and he fell to the floor, the phone still in his hand.“Who are you?” Grey demanded.His question was met with no answers from the men. Instead, they moved even closer to him. Grey got up quickly just as another guy aimed at him. Grey was quick to dodge this time and also gave out a taste of his own on the attacker.Two men rushed forward to grab Grey’s hand, while another aimed a punch at his face. Grey hit his head against the attacker and pulled at the men holding him so tight. They were forced to hit each other and fall.“You aren’t so bad at this,” a voice said suddenly. The voice sounded familiar but Grey doesn’t remember where he had heard it from. The men stepped back a bit at the sound of the voice and one would know the speaker was the boss.Grey turned around again, to see who it was. His eyes went wide with shock as he beheld the man
Vincenzo looked at Maximo with shock. He didn’t expect to see him at all. He didn’t even know that he was aware of all he was doing.“What are you doing here?” His anxiousness showed in his voice.Maximo was filled with rage. “I should be asking you that question!” He yelled. “What are you doing here?”The men that were fighting with Grey, stopped and stepped backward.“Maximo, this is totally not yours to interfere with. I have to teach him a great lesson,” Vincenzo explained.Maximo huffed, feeling irritated. “Seriously? Do you even know who he is? How dare you do that to him?” He yelled again, his nostril flaring around. He looked over at the men. “Lead Grey to the car,” he ordered.The men moved forward, pushing Vincenzo’s men in the process.Vincenzo clenched his fist with anger. Maximo was really messing with him and he didn’t like it. Though, Maximo was someone he didn’t want to mess with. They had both agreed to go their separate ways. One was never to interfere with the other
Vincenzo drove inside the garage roughly. He was a bit angry at the sudden call. If his father hasn’t interrupted him, he would have been able to deal with Grey.Also, he had to find something to do with Maximo. To him, Maximo was biting off more than he could chew. He didn’t know why Maximo had to meddle with everything. It made him so angry.He just wouldn’t let Grey go with insulting him like that.He got out of the car and hurried inside the living room. The president, his father was waiting for him.“You took longer than you were supposed to,” he muttered.Vincenzo grunted. “I came back as fast as I could. What were you going to tell me that couldn’t wait till morning?” He asked and sat, still fuming.The door opened suddenly. Leonardo, Dante, and Enzo walked inside.Vincenzo sat up, as fear entered his features. “What’s going on here?”The men didn’t answer and went to sit instead.“I called you over because of them. I heard something was going on at your hotel. Is it true?” Vi
