"You do?" Avery raised a skeptical brow at him. "How much do you even know? How much do you know that makes you despise me so much?"

All the things that Avery had done to him during their marriage, sprang to his lips but he bit them back quickly. Truly, Avery really made him go through a lot. All the pain have transformed into anger in him but he wasn't going to take it up. He didn't even have it on his agenda. The only thing he didn't want was to get close to her. He didn't want it.

"I don't despise you, Avery. What got you upset?"

"You don't? How can you say that when the evidence is so crystal clear like daytime? Have I done so wrong than asking you to work for me?"

Grey watched her for a moment. " You forced me to work for you."

"Is that it? Is that why you hate me so much?" She asked but Grey didn't respond. "Answer me, David!" She yelled. "Is it because I forced you to work for me, is that why you hate me so much?"

Grey sighed. "Let's leave this place. We can talk about this els

    Giovanni’s phone rang suddenly. He regarded the number on the screen for a moment before he dropped it. It stopped ringing, only for it to start ringing again. With a sigh, Giovanni picked it up.“Hello, who is this?”“Boss, it is Philip. Do you remember me now?”Giovanni thought for a moment as he tried to remember where he had heard the name from. He remembered almost immediately, the spy he planted at some of the special members’ side, at the members that were used to moving and thinking together.But his calling actually meant a lot of things. They haven’t spoken since forever. “Yes, I do now. Is anything wrong?”“Yes, boss. There’s something I need to inform you of.”“Yes, go ahead.”“A suspicious man came to see the special members yesterday. I think it's Italy's billionaire president.”Giovanni stood up. “What? Are you sure about that? I mean I heard that Italy isn’t participating in this contest. How come one of them met with the special members?”“I told you what I saw, boss

    "I guess that's sealed then," Grey muttered and everyone shook their heads."You will be coming with Miss Avery?""Yes, that means you should watch out for her. The moment you see her, be assured that I am near even if you can't really see me," he informed them."But, I have an objection," Douglas said suddenly. "Having the announcement in Jacksonville isn't really the problem. The problem is if Grey would gain entrance. If anything happens, we might be forced to change the names," he explained. "Are you sure you can do this? Or should we change the venue?"Grey shook his head briefly. "It's ok. Jacksonville is the best for this. Choosing another venue doesn't mean that Giovanni wouldn't pull up his tricks. I will just find a way to get rid of him, trust me, I will.".Avery had sweaty hands as she waited for David. She had no idea what the members were telling Grey but she believed it was for her safety.The members were men, and so was Grey. It was only normal they told Grey. He cou

    Avery walked inside the salon and scanned the place for the stylist. She was nowhere in sight, so Avery used the opportunity to sit.She placed a call to her however and she picked it up immediately. "Hi, good morning. Where are you?""I'm at the salon. How can we meet and discuss?""Just do as if you want to go to the restroom, I will meet you," she explained and hung up.Avery cleared her throat meaningfully and looked at one of the stylists around. "Where's the restroom, please?""There, just go straight. You will see it."Avery stood and bowed slightly. "Thank you," she muttered and followed the direction that was explained. She entered the restroom, her gaze searching around quickly for the stylist."Looking for me?" A soft voice said suddenly behind her.Avery turned to look at the stylist, a smile on her face. "Should we go elsewhere to discuss? Are you sure you are ok here?"The stylist nodded briefly. "Besides, what I'm about to tell you was gotten through dubious means. I h

    "Are you sure about this?"The man nodded once. "I can help you and you won't regret it. I promise."Grey regarded him for a moment. "If you try something funny, I will kill you.""Alright. You can do anything you want to me if I deceive you but I've made up my mind already.""No prob, I will be watching," he walked out of the room and shut it. Charles was still in the living room, waiting for him. Grey moved closer to him."Get the guy initiated in our men. He has a perfect way of infiltrating Giovanni's security. I think I'm going to need him on the announcement day," he explained.Charles shook his head briefly. "I don't think that's actually nice. We can't trust him. He's one of Giovanni's men.""Well, you don't need to trust him. Just trust me. I will handle everything else," he assured..Avery had already prepared a perfect plan to get to the root of the matter. She was going to use her wit to check who David really was.She couldn't take chances as she didn't even know when D

    "I'm so sorry! I'm really sorry!" Avery rushed the words as she felt anxious and regretful. Maybe she shouldn't have gone with such a bad plan.Grey didn't reply, his right hand on the steering while the other one was still holding the cup. Instead, he found a nice spot to park the car.He looked at Avery, his expression was somehow frightening, even for Avery. Avery felt he was going to scold her like usual.Instead, he reached for her right hand and stared down at it. "Are you hurt?" His deep voice almost brought tears to Avery's eyes.Here she was thinking that he was angry at her when he was merely worried about her."I'm fine," Avery tried to pull back but Grey was firmly holding her. "You should check yourself. The coffee poured on you as well."Grey locked gaze with her for a moment and Avery slowly released her hand.Grey stared down at it. "It's not bruised. It looks like it will be fine," he looked up at her. "Let's go to the hospital."Avery withdrew her hand now. "I'm look

    Avery couldn't believe it. She stood rooted to the floor for several minutes. Was there really a way for two people to have the same tattoo at the same place?"Don't worry, Maximo. She's safe with me," Grey muttered and turned around, his eyes lingering at the door for a moment. Avery stepped back very quickly, fortunate that she didn't fall or make a noise that would have given her out.She walked away slowly, with so much on her mind. At one point, she couldn't work anymore and nearly faltered. Her head felt so heavy, she couldn't really think it deeply. But she had to.The stylist said it was top-notch information and David wasn't Italian. In fact, he arrived in Italy several days after he was declared dead in Jacksonville.That aside, what was she supposed to say concerning the way he made her feel? The way she was always reminded of Grey whenever he was with her.And the tattoo! It was no coincidence, Avery could only come up to one conclusion, That wasn't David, that was Grey.

    Grey returned home after being assured that Avery was inside her room. He called her several times but she didn’t pick up. He just wondered what was going wrong with her again and what he had done wrong.Though, he was leaving Italy in two days and won’t be coming back for a while. He might not even come back in years.Grey walked inside the living room but stopped suddenly as he regarded Aphrodite for a moment. She was sleeping on the couch.He sighed and moved closer. He scooped her in his arms and headed to their bedroom.Just as he placed her on the bed, he was taken aback for a moment as he stared down at Aphrodite's opened eyes.“For how long were you awake?” He laughed.“Since you took me in your arms,” she laughed and stretched up to kiss Grey on the lips. “You came late and I didn’t want to sleep. I wanted to discuss something with you,” she revealed and sat up.Grey sat beside her and gave her full attention. “Yes, what is it all about?”“Charles told me you would like to in

    Alex paced endlessly, as different thoughts collided in him in some sort of crazy confusion. He couldn't stop thinking that Maximo could have deceived him. Could that have been the case?The door opened and one of his men walked inside. "Boss."Alex stopped to look at him. "What did you find?""Maximo hasn't met with anyone. His routes aren't suspicious. From work to his house and then to the club. I haven't seen him with Charles or anyone from Hercules's side," he explained.Alex released a sigh. Maybe it was only his thought. Well, he had to eliminate suspicion. His phone rang suddenly, almost startling him. It was his father.Alex picked it up immediately. "Good morning, Dad.""Alex, I think something is going on in Italy. It looks like Maximo and the rest might have been deceiving us."Alex gathered his brows. "Why do you think so? Did your men inform you of anything?""Not yet. I'm unable to get across to my men but I've sent a few of them again. But one of the spies I planted w

    Avery woke up with a scream. Her head was still banging but she wasn't in the airport anymore.She held onto her temple for a moment.The door opened suddenly and Emily walked inside.“Avery!” She called, with worries written all over her face. “What happened? Are you alright?”Her eyes were shut tightly. “Headache,” she whispered.Emily rushed out of the room suddenly. She rushed inside almost immediately but was accompanied by some doctors.Avery felt a stab of the syringe and suddenly, the pain started to ebb away.“Avery! Are you alright?”Avery opened her eyes and looked at her mother. “Mom, where is Grey?”Emily hesitated briefly. “What about the headache?” She asked instead.Avery looked at the doctor, ignoring her mother's question. “Grey was brought in here, right? The VP of Protos Pubblicita. Where is he? How is he?”One of the doctors regarded her for a moment, then looked at Emily. “Are they_”“He's my husband!” Avery said quickly. “If he's here, I demand to know how he's

    “Grey!” Avery yelled again, in despair and pain.The phone dropped from her hand but she barely noticed.She couldn't believe what she had seen. She was actually thinking of surprising Grey by coming to the airport.But since Grey didn't want to see her, she was going to leave. Just seeing him from afar was enough for her.Avery raced closer. Her heart was pounding madly in her chest. “Grey!” She yelled again and felt the tears slide down her cheeks.Then she saw some images flash across her eyes. She saw herself standing beside a car with Grey.A serious headache hit in and he held onto her head a bit to stop the pain.But it worsened.Avery couldn't move as several images flashed across her eyes. The pain in her head got worse.She yelled, much in sadness than in pain. Grey was slipping off her hands and instead of helping, she could not.But it felt like she was starting to remember everything. She was starting to remember everything about Grey.“You ruined my life!” Avery saw her

    Avery didn't believe it, couldn't have imagined it. Grey was a nice person. How could he have treated him badly?She felt a purge of sadness. She closed her eyes for a moment and shed unseen tears.“Sean, I need to meet you alone,” she muttered and walked away.Emily and Benjamin stared at her for a moment, confused.Emily turned to look at Sean. “And what are you doing here?” She yelled at him, anger vivid on her face.Sean looked down in guilt. “I'm so sorry. I really am. That's why I'm here. Please,” he beseeched softly and looked up at her again. “That's why I'm here. I really need everyone's forgiveness. I really hope you can forgive me. I've learned my lesson,” he rushed out with a solemn expression.“You_” Emily started but Benjamin cut in quickly.“It's ok,” Ben muttered. “You should go and see Avery. When you guys are done talking, you should see me before you leave.”Sean bowed slightly, with a slight smile on his face. He hurried towards the direction that Avery had gone.He

    Avery couldn't stop thinking about all Grey had told her. She still found it hard to believe. How was she married and they weren't intimate?Does it mean she forced him to marry her? But then she wondered why she would do such a thing.She took her phone and placed a call to Sean.He picked it up immediately. “Hi, sister.”“I'm on the way home. So, come over. I won’t wait too much for you,” she finished and hung up immediately.The car pulled into the garage and Avery got down before the engine of the car would even stop.She walked inside the living room.“Ben, have you_” Emily started but stopped suddenly when she saw Avery. Her eyes widened with shock. “Avery!” Joy exploded in her eyes.Avery managed a smile and met her mother midway. They hugged.“Where have you been all these while? Why did you decide to stay away from us all this while?” She sobbed quietly.“I'm sorry,” Avery responded and pulled back to look at her mother fully. “I just need to get myself back. Besides, there a

    Avery stood in front of the mirror, with two dresses. She was indecisive about the one to wear. She just freshened up and the only thing she could think of was to go back to the hospital because of Grey.She just wanted to be with him. She didn't want to think of anything else.She eventually decided on the black one, deciding it was a bad idea to be overly dressed when she was in fact going to the hospital.She dabbed some perfumes on herself and eventually walked out of the house. She got inside the car and drove right to a restaurant nearby.She thought of getting Hercules some cakes. Her phone rang suddenly as she walked back to the car. She hesitated briefly, as she took a while to find her. The phone had stopped ringing when she finally found it.She was about to check the caller ID when the phone started ringing again. It was an unknown caller.She hesitated again and contemplated on whether to pick it up or not.She eventually decided to.“Hello?”“Hello, sis!” A familiar de

    Charles looked at Grey, still shocked. “Don't tell me you will team up with this good-for-nothing guy? You know he's not to be trusted!”Grey nodded once and looked at him. “I know but you do trust me, right? Just trust me.”Charles regarded him for a moment and slowly released a sigh. “Alright then.”Grey looked at Dylan. “But this teamwork will not work if we don't have the evidence we can pin Giovanni down with,” he explained.“Well, Giovanni is supposed to die, and not be jailed for killing your father.”“Well, I won't need the evidence after Giovanni dies. So, this deal will be useless for me. Besides, Giovanni will not live after killing my father. Don't think I plan on sparing his life.”Dylan laughed. “I like that! I sincerely do!” He muttered, dipped his hand into his pocket, and pulled out a phone. “It's here, everything on the watch,” he revealed, placed it on the bed beside Grey, and smiled slightly. “I will be in Jacksonville soon. We will talk then,” he finished, got up,

    “Well, let him come,” Grey decided and looked at Avery. “I'm done with the food. Thank you, I really appreciate it,” he said with a smile.Avery nodded once and packed the lunch boxes. “I will leave then so that you and Dylan can speak.”Grey nodded. “Alright. Take care of yourself.”Avery smiled slightly and walked out eventually.Charles turned to Grey. “I will kill him today if he tries to act sneaky!” He swore.Grey smiled slightly. “Just calm down and let's hear him first.”Charles groaned inwardly and pulled a chair for himself to sit. “I'm seriously going to kill him!” He promised.Grey laughed and his phone made a beep. It was a message from Avery. He read through and looked at Charles.“Dylan is here,” he announced.Charles nodded several times as if it was taking every ounce of his strength to keep calm.A soft knock sounded on the door. The door opened almost immediately and Dylan pushed his head inside, a wide smile on his face.“Hi everyone!” He said with sarcasm.“You be

    “Are you sure?” Grey nodded once, with a soft smile. “Yes, I am. I will handle him. So, you just stay calm,” he responded and dialed Charles's number.Avery nodded once. “I will call him back then.”Grey nodded again. “But tell him I would like to choose the venue. If he's not agreeing with that, then I won't see him,” he muttered and looked at the phone screen only to discover Charles had picked it up.“Hi Charles,” he said into the receiver and relaxed back on the bed.“Grey, where have you been?”“Well,” he smiled softly. He would have never thought he was going to get so sick. He hadn't gotten so sick in a long time that it felt like he was immortal, immune.“I got sick Charles. In fact, I'm currently at the hospital.”“Damn! Send me the address. I will be there now,” he assured and the line went off.Grey looked at Avery and caught her staring. He smiled. “What did the doctor say is wrong with me?”“Well, I will tell you that while you eat. You haven't eaten since morning.”Grey

    Consciousness returned to Grey slowly and his gaze searched around.Where was he?A slight headache hit in. He groaned and reached for his head.“Are you alright?” A soft voice asked suddenly.He looked up at a pair of brown eyes. Wait, a nurse?“Yes, just a slight headache,” he responded.The nurse smiled down at him. “You will be fine with this,” she assured and raised a syringe. She regarded him for another moment before she injected him.Grey didn't flinch. It was as if nothing penetrated him. Well, a lot had penetrated him before. What more could a syringe do?“Wow, I'm impressed,” the nurse smiled.Grey didn't really remember anything. In fact, the headache was making it difficult for him. But then, the pain ebbed away slowly as the nurse had said.“Where am I?” He said and groaned inwardly. “I know this is a hospital. I'm sorry for that stupid question.”The nurse laughed.He did as well. “I mean how did I get here?”“Well, your girlfriend brought us here. She stepped out a few
