Chapter 297: Business
Alfred and Gregory entered Alfred's car and they barely drove for a few minutes when Alfred's phone
rang suddenly.
It was one of Alfred's men. Alfred picked it up immediately.
"Yes, any update as to where Leo is going?"
"Well, he tried to commit suicide," he revealed.
Shock kept Alfred motionless for a moment. "What!" He exclaimed. He was shocked by the word.
"He tried to jump off the bridge but we stopped him. And we are on our way back home, you can just
come home directly," he suggested.
Alfred nodded once. "Alright, later then," he hung up and looked at Gregory. "Leo wasn't going to be
the spy, apparently. The man just informed me that he wanted to jump off the bridge," he announced.
Gregory sighed." Thank goodness you didn't inform Grey the other time or it would be very difficult to
change his mind. He would want to believe Leo is a spy forever."
Alfred nodded once. "Do you want me to drop you at home?”
"So, what are you going to do?" Aphrodite demanded.
Grey looked away and didn't reply. "Go home, Aphrodite. I will let you know when I need you, which
won't be soon. I have a lot of business to handle alone. Oh, with my men actually," there was a silly
smile on his face.
Aphrodite has to admit that Grey had changed after Leo's confession. He seemed more determined
and more callous. Aphrodite feared what he might do next.
"Grey, you do know that you can always speak with me. We used to be friends when we were still
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyoung."
Grey looked at her and nodded briefly. "I will, don't worry," he assured her.
Aphrodite nodded briefly and moved closer to sit beside him. "I heard that your girlfriend left already."
Grey regarded her for a moment before he nodded. "Who is your informant? You are always good at
getting information. How do you do it?"
Aphrodite smiled softly. "I merely took after my mother. Remember those days when I used to spy on
people for you?"
Grey laughed. "I remember it very well, including the last one you did, and decided not to do it
anymore."
Aphrodite laughed. "You tricked me, Grey! You know that!" she sighed." Anyways, I'm glad you
laughed."
Grey winked at her. "Thank you. You can leave now, I will be fine. Text me the address of the hospital
where Charles was admitted to. I might check him there tomorrow."
Aphrodite nodded and stood. "I will do that. Sleep tight," she took a short bow before she walked out of
the house.
Grey pulled out his phone and made a call to Don. He just remembered Jane and Tina and he needed
to decide their fate as well as the rest of those people that had messed with him. Lawrence is also
going to get his share of it.
Don picked it up immediately as if he was waiting for his call already.
"Hello, boss."
"Get set. You will be accompanying me to my estate in less than an hour," he announced and
hesitated. "We might be there till tomorrow morning. So, you know," he added quickly.
"Alright boss. I will do that immediately."
And the line went off immediately.
Grey stared up into space for a moment before he got up and went out of the house. There were a lot
of men standing guard.
He regarded them for a moment before he stepped out. "Everyone will be going out with me and we
are moving now."
"Yes, boss!" They chorused and took a bow.
Within minutes, they were on the plane and moving towards Hercules's estate.
Since the plane was spacious, it contained everyone, including Don and Richard.
"Boss, are you alright?" Don asked on their way.
Grey nodded once, not in the mood to talk. Meanwhile, his hand was slowly moving around the gun on
his lap.
After some hours, which meant midnight, they arrived at the estate. There were lots of men guarding
the whole place too.
The moment Grey walked inside the living room, four men stood back while the other walked inside
with him
Grey felt a new stab of annoyance. Maybe Alfred was right and he should take it slowly. But he couldn't
stop thinking of everything. And the more he thought about it, the angrier he felt. He felt deep
resentment inside.
He wanted nothing more than to kill them, to kill everyone responsible for his parent's death.
Hattie was just a preamble, an opening speech. Giovanni was going to regret everything.
Grey hesitated in front of one of the men. "Where are the prisoners?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I will lead you, boss," he bowed, turned around, and moved towards the hallway. Where he was going
to look exactly like where they kept Tiana days back.
Grey followed.
He finally stopped before the door, opened it, and bowed.
Grey hesitated before he walked inside and several men followed him.
Jane and Tina were really inside. They sat while there were chains bound around them. And there
were gags around their mouth. When Grey and the men walked inside, Jane and Tina jerked up from
their sleep. The room was in semi-darkness and so, Jane and Tina couldn't really see who had walked
inside.
"Pull down the gag," Grey ordered and two of the men rushed forward to carry out the order.
"Who are you?" Jane yelled out.
Grey ignored her question. "Are you scared? Scared of death?"
Tina shivered. "I'm sure you got me by mistake. You only wanted to get Jane. Please, just let me go!"
She begged.
Jane got angry at her words. Her head turned towards her direction quickly. "What was that? What did
you just say? We are in this together! Why would they let you go alone? It should be the both of us!"
She yelled.
Grey huffed at their batters. "Do you want to know who I am?"
Jane and Tina's heads snapped back at Grey's words.
"Yes!" Tina admitted.
"No!" Jane yelled all of a sudden. "We don't want to know you because you might retain us after seeing
your face. Just please let us go."
Grey laughed. Nice quote Jane. For someone that doesn't think twice before planning to kill people,
you sure are scared of death but_" he hesitated. "I will show you who I am anyways. Someone should
turn on the light."
