Chapter 29: Encounter with Giovanni‘s men

The auction was over after the last bid but Grey stayed behind as well as Aphrodite. Grey didn‘t know

what she was thinking about but since he wanted to speak with her, he decided to stay behind Grey

turned to look at Saint. “Can you get Alfred to pay for the jewelry? I don‘t have that amount with me.”

Saint smiled.” I will do that,” he said and walked out of the hall. Grey looked back at Aphrodite, just in

time for her to stand up. She started toward the door. “Miss Aphrodite,” he called quickly. “Will you give

me a few minutes with you?” He said politely and stood up as well.

Aphrodite looked back at him, her stare cold. “What business do I have with you, Mr. Grey?” She was

still angry and her face was a piece of evidence.

Grey smiled and walked closer to her, topping her with several inches. “You do look beautiful when you

are angry,” he taunted. He was doing the opposite of what Gregory told him never to do.

Aphrodite regarded him for a moment, then she smiled softly. “You think?”

Grey smiled as well. “I will do anything to tease you again, just to see your beautiful face.” Aphrodite

took a step forward so that they are close now.” Are you a newbie? Don‘t you know the rules?” Grey

shook his head slightly.” There are no rules when it comes to a pretty lady. Anyways, I‘m Grey Fox,” he

extended his hand. Aphrodite stared at his hand for a moment and ignored it. The door opened

suddenly and several men rushed in, to stand behind Aphrodite. “Is everything alright, miss Aphrodite?”

One of the men asked. Grey pulled Aphrodite by her hand quickly, so that she would be forced to hug

him. He pulled her closer to his chest and leaned towards her ear.

“I thought you of all people will recognize who I am. This is Hercules, your boss.”

Aphrodite went numb for a moment.” What? Hercules?” She was more than surprised.

Grey pulled back to look at her. “Don‘t say it aloud. I’m undercover.”

“What are you doing? Get Aphrodite now!” One of the men ordered. “Wait!” Aphrodite stopped them

quickly, then she looked up at Grey. “Grey Fox?” She smiled. “it‘s truly your name.!’ Grey spread his

arms in defeat.” I told you.” Aphrodite used the opportunity to hit him in the chest. “That is for leaving

me ten years ago.” Grey groaned and smiled at the same time. It was at that moment that he

remembered he had met Aphrodite severally before the accident.

Novia had always been very brave when they were very young and she loved hanging out with Grey.

She was also strict. No one was supposed to tease or flatter her unless it was Grey Only Grey could

get away from it.

Aphrodite‘s smile widened as she watched him stand straightened up again. She took another step

closer to fill the space in between them. Then, she slipped a business card into his hand “Call me.

Don‘t, if you dare,” and she turned around to leave, with a wide grin plastered across her face.

And just like that, Grey had conquered another of his elders. He wondered how surprised Gregory

would be if he heard.

Saint walked inside and moved to Grey. “Here‘s the jewelry. It has been paid for.” Grey squeezed the

business card in his hand and turned to look at the jewelry, a side lopped smile on his face.

“What are you going to do with the jewelry?”

Grey regarded it for a moment and smiled Maybe it would serve as the best gilt later on.” Let‘s go,” he

told him instead He kept the business card in his pocket and decided to give calling Aphrodite a

thought later Walking out of the hall and the first thing he saw was the car in front of the restaurant. The

car looked exactly like Avery‘s car

“Is anything wrong?” Saint asked when he realized that Grey was reluctant to leave

Grey was still looking at the car when Avery walked out of the restaurant with Caramel

Grey looked at Saint, “you will have to go without me,” he dipped into his pocket for the key and

stretched it out.” Put the jewelry inside my car and drive my ear to Alfred‘s company. I will bring it home

tomorrow,” he explained in a voice that lett no room for more words Instead, started towards Avery

Caramel was the first to see him “Grey!” She jubilated

Avery frowned, disappointed. She turned to look at Grey “What are you doing here?” +

Grey regarded her for a moment at how beautifully she was dressed. “Well, I came here to eat. And

when I saw you, I knew I would get a free ride home.”

“Not in my car,” Avery murmured and opened her door. “Don‘t do that Avery, he‘s your husband after

all, “Caramel protested. “No, he‘s not!” Avery was adamant. She entered the car and shut the door.

Then she looked up at Caramel. “Are you entering the car or not?”

“No, I‘m not going to do that. I will take him home if you won‘t let him ride.”

Avery turned to look at her quickly. “No! Don‘t do that! He can get a taxi home!” * But he doesn‘t want

that,” Caramel insinuated.” If you don‘t let him get in, I will take him home then.”

Avery didn‘t like the fact that Caramel was being supportive of Grey. Also, she knew that Caramel was

serious but Avery didn‘t want any intimacy between Grey and Caramel

She opened the door to look at Grey. “You can come in.”

Grey smiled and opened the door. “Thank you so much, Avery, you are a lifesaver. I didn‘t want to

spend the last dollar with me.”

Avery scoffed. He wasn‘t even ashamed to say in front of her friend that he had only a dollar left with

him.

Caramel laughed. “See, he‘s grateful.”

Avery huffed. “I don‘t need his words of baubles.!‘

Caramel laughed harder and looked back at Grey. She noticed that the suit he was wearing was an

expensive one.” Isn‘t that Dormeiul Vanquish?” “Dormeiul Vanquish? I thought I got you a tuxedo suit.

How did you get this suit?” “Alfred gave me an advance payment. So, I got some suits with it.” Avery

huffed again.” What kind of husband gets an advance payment?”

“Well, I only want to look good for you,” Grey opined.

“He looks good anyways, too handsome, like a hot cake,” Caramel teased.

Avery felt a slap on her face. Did Caramel just refer to Grey as being handsome? Caramel was gentle

and calm unlike her other friends, yet, she was still very choosy. She wondered why she thought Grey

was handsome. “Hey! Watch out!” Caramel yelled suddenly and jerked Avery out of her thoughts

quickly.

Two cars were suddenly standing in the middle of the road.

Avery pulled to a stop quickly before she would collide with the car. Some men walked out of the car, to

block Avery‘s way as well. “what the fuck are these?” Avery asked, skeptical and annoyed.

“That‘s Marco, Giovanni‘s men,” Caramel answered. “What the fuck do they want from me?” Avery

asked with fright.
