Yet again, Giovanni was caught off guard. Though, he was at first skeptical because there was no way the Governor would have gotten a piece of evidence against him but how could he have thought he wasn't actually recording it, and that he had no tangible evidence at first?

"You don't believe it?" The governor chuckled and pulled out a recorder.

Giovanni regarded the recorder for a long time, different thoughts colliding in his mind in a sort of crazy confusion.

The governor pressed some buttons on it and Giovanni's voice resurfaced. He let it run for a few minutes before he paused it.

He looked up at Giovanni. "Do you believe now that there's nowhere for you to run to?"

Giovanni huffed. "There will always be a way out, Jason. My eyes are on you," he muttered and stood.

"You can't actually stop Alex from being convicted," the governor said suddenly and looked up. "Alex won't be able to escape being convicted for murder. And if you are not careful, he will spend the rest of his life in

    At Protos Pubblicita, one of the workers moved aside to call one of her friends."Hello, can you hear me," she whispered as if she was scared everyone in Protos Pubblicita was going to hear. "Hercules is on his way, like I've heard.""Seriously," the voice on the other side responded with excitement. "How did you know this? Are you sure the information is genuine and can be trusted?""Of course. I heard Miss Maria's assistant talking about it on the phone. It's definitely right. You don't want to miss this. You do that Hercules rarely comes to work and you know he just badged a new position. You should hurry up before other reporters find out," she suggested."Yes! Thank you for informing me. I will be on my way," she assured and the line went off.She adjusted herself, just as the elevator door opened and Maria walked out with the other staff.She smiled and hurried to join the rest. Apparently, Hercules had arrived and they were all going to meet him.Grey stepped inside, with Charl

    "Nice idea," Charles applauded.Grey smiled softly. "I know," he nodded slightly and looked up at Maria. "If the reporters are hell-bent on not leaving, tell them the latest update. Grey isn't who they think he is. He’s currently going to be the new VP. That should give them the time they need. That should settle the news” Grey suggested.Maria nodded briefly. “I will do that immediately, sir.”Grey smiled at her. “Good. Get me the files of this company. I need to get updated.""Alright boss," Maria responded, bowed slightly, and eventually walked out of the office.Grey looked up at Jimmy. “How is your friend doing by the way?”“Actually, he would like to speak with you. But he's doing fine now,” he revealed.Grey nodded once. “Is everything alright?”“Yes, boss. I guess he has some decision-making to do. You should hear from him yourself,” he advised.Grey nodded once in agreement and looked at Charles. “I will be seeing the two ladies today. I'm leaving for my estate today, after w

    "That's alright," Grey muttered. "I will have the interview tomorrow," he concluded. Maria nodded once. "Do you want me to get all the company files or would you prefer to resume work tomorrow? Since you will be starting as VP."Grey thought for a moment. "Tomorrow then. I have a lot to do today anyway. So, I will be leaving early."Maria nodded again. "Least I forget, do you want us to have a little party? Which is normal for you as the new VP but since you are the Hercules, I don't know how you will react to it.""Well, a party sounds cool," Charles uttered."I will go with the party because, to the world, I'm just Grey. It wouldn't be nice if we didn't follow the protocol. So, yes, a party is ok."Maria pulled out her tablet and went through it for a moment. "Tomorrow afternoon then.""Afternoon is fine, I will be leaving immediately after the party. I have to be in Italy," he announced."Alright boss. I will start preparing for it. Is there anything you want?"Grey shook his head

    Jimmy pulled into Grey’s estate.Charles hurried down and moved into the house. Grey and Jimmy moved inside behind him.Cynthia and Tiana were already waiting when Grey walked inside.The two girls stood up in greeting. Cynthia still had fear written all over her face as she beheld Grey. She couldn’t get the image of Grey covered in blood from her head.She clung to Tiana for support.“It’s ok,” Tiana assured. She wasn’t at all scared of Hercules. He was the one that saved them after all.Grey nodded once. “How have you been doing?”“Fine boss,” Tiana responded for the both of them.“Ok,” Grey muttered and sat. He gestured for the ladies to do the same. “I don’t know if Charles has briefed you about our meetings today.”Tiana shook her head briefly. “But I know it’s about what Richard was testing on us before you rescued us.”Grey nodded once, with a little smile “Exactly. I’m unable to decipher what the book we saw is all about. And Charles said you might have something for me. Is th

    Grey got up early the next morning with a slight headache.He managed to get himself prepared for work. There was going to be a party in the afternoon. So, he got himself a blue tuxedo.The door opened suddenly and Charles walked inside. "Should I make something for you? Or what are you eating this morning?"Grey laughed. "You are not my cook.""But that doesn't mean I can't make you something very fast. You need to eat something before going to work or maybe you can take something when you get to the company," Charles explained.Grey laughed and moved to the mirror angle. He did his tie slowly. "You can't even cook. When was the last time you cooked?"Charles laughed. "I'm a lot better, Grey. You should taste my food in one of these days.""And why_," he started and turned to look at him. "Why the fuck will I even let you cook for me? No, I would rather get something when I get to Protos Pubblicita or perhaps make the food myself."Charles grinned. "I can make it better than you do."

    It was Cindy."Hey, I said you aren't allowed inside," Violet snapped, angrily as she walked inside after Cindy.Grey hesitated and just watched. He didn't even understand what was happening. Cindy wasn't employed that day so there was no way she would be in Protos Pubblicita.Besides, it looked like she bypassed the security."You have to leave now, madam," Violet emphasized and stood in front of her, preventing Cindy from seeing Grey."Please, I'm begging you," Cindy said softly.Grey was shocked. He didn't know that Cindy could beg. She has always been so arrogant from the start and it felt like a leopard skin, she would never change."I just need to see Grey for a moment," she beseeched further."No, leave now before I call the security guards. How did you even get in? I might call the police on you if you don't leave this instant," she threatened.Cindy looked over at Grey as if to beg him directly. "Grey, I'm begging you. Can I see you for a moment, please," she said quickly eve

    Grey released a sigh. "Alright, Maximo. I will be there earlier. I will set out after the party I have here. Don't do anything to her, I will settle everything when I get to Italy," he promised and the line went off. He wondered what Avery was really doing. What was she up to? A soft knock sounded on the door and Mark entered with bags. "Here boss," he muttered and moved closer. He placed some bags on the table and adjusted them. "I will be back when I'm done," he assured. Grey nodded once. "No problem." Mark walked out of the room, leaving Grey alone again. But his mind wasn't on the food again, it was on Avery. . The door opened suddenly, and Maria walked inside. "It's all prepared. We should leave now," she announced. Grey nodded once. "Alright, let's leave," he muttered, took his phone and stood. Mark moved closer and helped him with his briefcase. Together, they walked out of the office. Within minutes, they were driving towards the hall. Maria was in front of the car

    Grey nodded once. "it's ok. We can't hide it forever anyway. He was deemed to find out sooner or later. Keep me updated on whatever happens next.""Yes boss," Jason responded and the line went off.Grey released a sigh and moved closer to Maria again."And so," the MC was saying, with a wide smile on his face. "I'm going to call the celebrant on stage to say one or two things. Then, the party will proceed," he muttered, stopping briefly to laugh. "And that goes to Grey Fox!" announced.A round of applause filled everywhere as Grey and Maria ascended the stairs."Thank you so very much for honouring me," Grey started, with a smile on his face.Everyone applauded him again and it lasted for a few minutes."Thank you!" Grey smiled again. "Protos Pubblicita is a company_," he started and everyone gave him a listening ear. "That's currently ranking one in the city and among the top ten in the world. Our main mission is to make sure it doesn't leave its position in the city and it moves eve

    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
