Actually, Caramel got them Louis Vuitton clothes. And she paid for it all. Well, Grey had to pretend to be broke. He still had to hide from Caramel, seeing that she was always so inquisitive.She gasped. "Wow! You look handsome!" She complimented as they walked to the car.Grey rushed to the driver's seat. " I'm driving!"Caramel laughed at this. "No, I will drive please."Grey shook his head. "Allow me to act like a gentleman since this is the only thing I can do well."Caramel laughed and handed him the keys."Do you know that your car costs 55 million dollars?" She asked suddenly after they got inside.Grey pulled to a stop all of a sudden. How the fuck did she know? He tried not to make it known.Grey cleared his throat meaningfully. "I don't really know that."Caramel smiled. "Who would give you such an expensive car? And you claim you don't have money?" Grey started the ignition. "As I've said earlier, it was a present. I've been working everywhere before I married Avery. I've
The music got even louder before Grey would get to the dance floor. It was like someone did it on purpose. Maybe to distract everyone.Caramel uttered something, clearly annoyed and it seemed like the man replied to her because she shut her mouth. Then flared up again and suddenly hit the man in front of her in the face.The man took her hair forcefully, pulling her head backward so that Caramel could look right at him.Everyone minded their business and acted as if they didn't see someone was being assaulted.The man raised a hand to hit Caramel but Grey was fast enough to suspend the hand in the air.Grey recognized the man immediately. It was Don, the man that harassed Avery the other night. He shouldn’t forget that he works for Hercules, for him.“Who are you?” Don seemed not to remember Grey. "What the fuck did you think you are doing?" Grey yelled angrily. He was angry but he had to scream because of the loud music.Don's facial expression took on something that would have scar
Grey walked inside the bathroom, he was so annoyed and he knew that he had no choice but to expose his identity before he actually killed his men.Richard walked inside. "I'm sorry but I don't think you can get Don to leave anything. He's so hard at heart. I will try to speak with him and see how it goes," he explained.Grey regarded him for a moment. " Alfred told me you called him?"Richard was surprised that he was referring to Alfred casually. "Yes, you told me I could.""Why did you think he responded? Why did you think I directed you to him? Who do you think is standing in front of you?" He bombarded him.Richard blinked once, unable to comprehend anything. " Who are you? I mean I know you are very skilled in martial arts and you are caring."Grey took a step forward, a dark frown on his face. "Isn't that obvious? Do I have to explain myself before you grasp? With a call from me," he pulled out his phone. " I will really wipe you not only from this Earth but from Hercules's prot
The men couldn't decide. They kept looking over at Don, then back at Grey.Don laughed. "What prank are you playing? Do you think my men will betray me?"Richard sighed. " He's telling the truth, Hercules doesn't accept a useless apology. You should leave now but you can hang around," he voiced out.The man exchanged glances and left one after the other.Don turned to Richard and gripped him hard by the collar. "What games are you playing with me? I'm going to kill you for betraying me!" He yelled in anger." He didn't really betray you, Don," Grey interceded. "He was merely carrying out orders from above, from Hercules himself."Don whirled to look at Grey. " Shut up!" He screamed and rushed to grab the gun on the table. He cocked it and stretched it towards Grey. "Shut up or I will shoot this through your head!" He threatened." You are making a big mistake, Don!" Richard said quickly." Shut up! Or you will be the next!" Don snapped at him."I'm going to count number one to three,
What mystery power does Grey have? Why did he pretend to be nobody? These questions were on Caramel's mind as she drifted off into deep slumber this time.Grey settled her in the back seat and decided to let her sleep. He still had some hours to spend before Avery would call him.He relaxed in the chair and decided to take a nap as well. He was feeling exhausted and thirsty but he didn’t want to leave Caramel alone in the car.“Grey!” A soft voice jolted him out of his slumber. He looked back at Caramel. “Did you sleep while waiting for me?”Grey nodded. “I thought we could go somewhere else and have fun,” he darted at his watch. “I still have less than an hour to spend,” he revealed.Caramel nodded, with a smile. “Let’s do that. Do you have any place in mind?”Grey nodded once and looked away. “Let’s just go to a bar. Alfred has one close by,” he responded.“Let’s go then!” Grey started the ignition but he couldn’t help but notice how much Caramel was staring at him. He knew that sh
The first thing that came to Grey’s mind was how Chris got the Diamond. There was only one auction house in town. In fact, Grey heard that Giovanni visits the place whenever he wishes. It was a place where even enemies met whenever auctioning was concerned.Most of the enemies ended up making the auctioneer happier as they would increase the bids till the opposition couldn’t afford it. It was exactly as he did with Aphrodite.Avery pulled the car to a sudden stop. “My friend is staying the night at our place. She just arrived from the state and would only settle down tomorrow.”Grey nodded briefly but he was startled when the door opened suddenly and a fine face lady stared up at him. She had golden hair and green eyes. She was also very flawless. She could have passed for a model or a movie star.“This is Grey?” She had a smirk on his face.Avery nodded quickly. “Grey, meet Chloe. Chloe, my husband,” she introduced.Chloe sniffed. “Get down!” “What?” It felt like Grey didn’t hear he
Grey had to wait in front of the door for the girls to finish up. It took a while as they were laughing and chatting. Grey groaned severally but he knew that Avery wouldn’t want to be late as well. She was currently the CEO of LN material company and she wouldn’t want to disappoint her grandfather.Truly, the door opened a few minutes later and Avery stepped out, still laughing with Chloe.“Good morning,” he greeted but the ladies were too busy talking that they didn’t even hear him or maybe they heard and didn’t want to reply, Grey couldn’t say.Grey entered the room and tried to get ready very fast.As he was making his tie, his phone beeped. It was a message from Aphrodite.Grey's eyes went wide with shock as he read through. The Blue Diamond was really rare, that was what Aphrodite confirmed. In fact, only one of the diamonds was in the city at the time of the auction to that moment. It was because of this that Aphrodite desperately wanted to buy it. That was why she kept increas
Chris was too shocked to speak for a while. After several minutes, he decided to act along. Since Avery already saw it as the original ring and because he had no money to buy the original, he would just play along. He placed a call right to Avery. It took a while before Avery would pick it up. "Hello, Chris." Chris smiled. "I'm sorry but I had to do something real quick. What were you asking the other time?" he feigned ignorance. Avery cleared her throat meaningfully. " I'm talking about the blue diamond that you got as my gift." "Oh, that?" Chris laughed shortly. "You were really notified of the price. It's fifty million dollars but I got it for more at the auction." Avery couldn't believe her ears and she gasped softly. "You got the ring from an auction?" "Yes, anything for you. And well, I will do more if you can accept to be with me," he urged softly. Avery was moved. She didn't know that Chris would spend such a huge amount on her birthday. Though she didn't really know
