Grey entered his car with a smile on his face. He was actually glad that he was finally able to reconcile with Emma after such a long time.His phone rang suddenly. It was Jason.Grey picked it up immediately. "Hello, Jason.""Hello, Hercules. The work is done here. I have those two men in my custody already and Alex's case is for the FBI. Also, I've asked the police to pull back as some of them were already at Giovanni's place," he explained.Grey nodded once. "Thank you. I will call you later when I'm ready to release Alex.""Alright, Hercules. I will be waiting.""Alright," he finished and hung up.He pulled the car out of the hospital..Giovanni wasn't only dumbfounded, he was irritated. He reluctantly let the police leave. Well, there was no way he could keep them or force them to go to Grey's estate.He knew he had to think of something very fast. Grey was already trying to rubbish him. He couldn't continue taking the bullshit.Grey was showing him and he had to step up his gam
Alex closed his eyes in fear. "Please," he said suddenly. "Please, don't kill me. Please, don't shoot. I'm begging," he pleaded softly. Grey regarded him for a moment and dropped the gun. Alex opened his eyes slowly and looked at Grey. "Thank you so much," he said softly. "So, you are scared?" He scoffed. "I didn't know you could fear so much. Yet, you commit stuff that you aren't supposed to. Do you know the condition you have placed Avery?" "Please, I'm sorry. Have mercy on me and don't kill me." Grey watched him for a moment before he turned around. "See you later, Alex," he muttered and took three steps forward. He stopped suddenly. "But on a second note_," he drawled lazily and turned to look at Alex. He pointed the gun at him and pull the trigger. A cry of terror ripped through Alex. "Oh my! Wtf!" He yelled so loud that his voice echoed throughout the whole room. Pain fell on him, a wall of it as the blood streamed down slowly. Grey watched him for a moment and smiled,
Avery hesitated as she concentrated on the nurse. "You are the nurse that unblinded me?" She gestured at the lady in front of her. Emma yelled with happiness. "Ben! He can see!" She was so overjoyed. Grey smiled softly, as happiness surged through him. He was so happy that her sight was eventually restored. "I can see!" Avery yelled suddenly as she touched her eyes. "I really can," she dragged slowly. "Mom! I can't see!" She yelled again as she looked at Emma. Emma moved closer and hugged her. "I'm so happy. I'm really happy that you can now see," she sobbed quietly. "I am so happy. I am really happy you can see," she stroked her back slightly. Avery couldn't stop smiling. She felt on top of the world. Emma pulled back after a moment and stepped back for Benjamin. "My daughter," Benjamin called softly, a wide smile on his face. "Come here," he moved closer and hugged her. "I'm so happy for you, Avery." "Oh, yes. Avery. There's someone here to see you," Emma called her attention
Grey's heart was beating faster as he drove. He pressed on the accelerator, increasing its speed. Several cars horn while some passed insults as he zoomed past them. But Grey barely saw them. His mind was ahead of him. What could have happened? How could the SU world have caught fire? There was no way that would have happened. There was definitely something else he didn't know. Something was definitely wrong and he was sure of it. His heart went to Giovanni. Could it be him? He was actually the only one that he could suspect. Well, he was the only one that would do anything to free his son. His phone rang suddenly but Grey barely heard it as he sped off, driving as fast as he could. He only stopped in front of SU world company. As Charles had said, there were firefighters everywhere, trying to quench the fire but it looked like the fire has done more harm already. The documents, the files, and everything in the company are all gone. Someone tapped him suddenly, jerking him out
"But wait," Charles started suddenly. "If you know about this watch, do you think Giovanni doesn't as well? He would definitely want to get the watch as well," he muttered."That's right but well, Grey is wealthier than Giovanni.""What if he tries to raise the bid? It will be us losing a lot of money," Charles complained."Well, it doesn't matter. All that matters is getting my father's watch back. And I will do all that it takes to do that," he promised.Charles nodded once. Grey took his phone and stood up. A sigh escaped him as he went through the news channel on the internet. He couldn't contain the sadness that seeped into him as he beheld his company slowly burn beyond repair."Are you not going to get back at Giovanni for doing this to SU?" Charles asked suddenly."We have to be very careful at this point. We don't want our plan to fail. Any little thing and we will be regretting it," Alfred advised."We could retaliate by burning one of his companies as well. An eye for an e
"How is the outcome? How did Alfred take the news?" Giovanni demanded with curiosity."Yes, boss. Alfred left his house an hour ago. In fact, he went directly to Hercules's house."Giovanni smiled softly. He was glad that his plan was working. "But boss, may I ask why we are doing this? We should be thinking of a way to get the small boss out.""Well, Grey would definitely buy the idea that his father's watch was going to be auctioned, especially if Alfred was the one that told him this. He would want to do everything he can to retrieve it. He wouldn't know it's an imitation," he explained.The man regarded Giovanni for a moment. "Imitation?" He repeated as if tasting the sound of it. "Where is the original watch? Is that with you?"Giovanni shook his head briefly. "That would have been good actually because I heard that Hercules kept a lot of things in that watch. In Fact, I was supposed to get it on the day the previous Hercules died. But, It didn't reach my hand somehow.""We have
Grey caught her very fast. He didn't know what was happening but he was able to see Avery before she fell. Avery blinked once as if she couldn't comprehend what had just happened. "Are you alright?" Avery pushed him away as if he was dirt. "I'm fine!" Her voice was firm, unlike before. And it felt weird. Grey readjusted himself and took a step backward. "That's ok then, to know you are ok." Avery regarded him for a moment. "You are Grey?" Grey nodded once. "Of course, I am." Avery huffed. "Seriously? So, you didn't expect me to believe that, do you?" She chuckled. "I just wonder if all men are the same. You go around adhering to match-making as if you are some useless vase or you are merely trying to have a rich bride." Grey was taken aback. "Pardon me?" "You do know what I'm talking about, don't you?" "Well, maybe I do but you shouldn't talk to me in such a manner. I just saved your life." Avery huffed."Should I, because you saved my life, give you what you want?" Grey ga
"But what if it's not? We still have to think about that," Charles muttered. "It could be Giovanni's idea for us to think in that manner. He could be planning to have the watch for himself and I don't want you to forget that we need this watch." Grey nodded once. He bent his head thoughtfully. Charles was right. Any mistake and they might lose the chance to get at Giovanni. "What should we do, boss?" Grey looked up finally. "We will go with our initial plan. Only a little of it will change. We will lure Giovanni to be able to succeed with our plan." Charles raised skeptical brows. "What do you mean?" Grey looked at him. "We are vacating my estate. Make sure everyone gets to safety, only leave behind some men, and make sure they leave the moment Giovanni's men arrive. No one must die," he explained. "Alright, boss," Charles nodded briefly. "I will tell the governor that the plan has changed. He will have to move very fast. That aside, I think you will have to move as well," Grey
