Chapter 93: Give it all it takes Grey pulled up in front of the SU world again and let out a sigh. He was
late because he had to get a new phone but thankfully, Garvin pulled back even though he had no plan
of patronizing SU world again.
“Damn, you were so late and your line wasn’t reachable,” Maria explained anxiously. Grey smiled. “I got
the problem solved with Garvin,” he revealed as he got into his office.
Maria released a sigh.” That’s great news even though there’s another problem.”
Grey thought for a moment and nodded briefly.” I just remembered, you were going to tell me
something before I left the other time. So,” he relaxed in his chair.” What’s it all about?”
Maria tried to relax. She pulled out the chair in front of Grey and took her seat. “I met with WW
Products yesterday, just as they’ve requested and you’ve permitted
to.”
Grey nodded.” So,” he urged.
Maria regarded him for a moment. “They told me to connect with the CEO and tell him to decide for the
company. He was supposed to fire you so that they would pay.”
Grey thought about it for a moment, realizing that the proposal was the same as Garvin’s. Undeniably,
he knew that it was still Chris at work. “So, they won’t pay us if the company doesn’t fire me?” He
asked, still amazed by the proposal Maria nodded briefly. “What do we do?” “If they want to speak with
the CEO, then they would,” Grey jibed. Maria’s eyes almost popped out.” No Boss, we can’t do that.
We can’t let Hercules know about this.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGrey observed her for a moment.” Relax, I know what I’m doing.”
“But if Hercules hears about this, he might fire us all.”
Grey smiled.” Maybe he might but he won’t fire me.” Maria stared, confused at his words. She knew
that Grey had some things up his sleeves or maybe he was even powerful but there was no way he
would work
around it. It seemed like SU was doomed to fail, except if Hercules intervened. And his intervention
would spell trouble for them all.
Chloe laughed. “Don’t tell me he’s always so foolish,” she sipped on the juice.
Avery sighed. “I mean I don’t even know how he would tell me to reject my grandfather’s offer,” she
expressed with frustration. “I don’t know how you met that guy but you need to move away from him as
fast as you can. Delay is dangerous,” she warned.” Besides, I heard that you have an appointment with
Protos Pubblicita tomorrow. Perhaps, you could see Hercules,” she said excitedly.
Avery chuckled.” I’m not that excited to see him anyways.” “Come on! You will be divorcing Grey soon,
you might as well be looking for another prominent suitor.”
Avery sighed. “I hope,” she said dreamily. “But if at all that would happen, I have Chris to go for. Even
though I don’t love him yet but maybe something can work well for us in the future.”
“Exactly!” Chloe nudged her happily.” Who knows, you might be a wife to one of the richest bachelors
in the city. Hercules is a hot cake.” Avery smiled at this. ” I’m sorry but I’m not interested,” she regarded
Chloe for a moment.” You won’t stop talking about him anyways. Are you smitten by him? Have you
seen him before?” Chloe gently placed the glass on the table and stared into the space, dreamily.” You
know, Hercules is one weird and secretive man. I’ve seen Giovanni several times but Hercules is just a
no-go area. No one knows what he looks like but,” she looked at Avery again, with a bright smile.”
These types of guys are always the most handsome.”
Avery laughed. “Maybe, he’s the head of the_,” the door opened suddenly before she could complete
her statement.
Smith tucked his head inside for a moment. “I hope you are preparing for the meeting tomorrow. If you
are so busy, I might help you out.” Avery huffed.” I don’t need your help, dear brother.” Smith shrugged
slightly.” Just trying to be nice.” “No one needs that from you and don’t forget this project is mine!”
Smith smiled.” Well, for now, and I will be there, beside you. So, you can as well
say this is for the two of us. And, tell your poor husband not to cross my line at home,” he finished up
and shut the door almost immediately.
Avery breathed out annoyance.

As Avery had informed Grey, Chris seemed to know a lot of people. Two of his appointments were
canceled that day as the buyers were suddenly uninterested in doing business with SU World. Grey
had dinner at Alfred’s restaurant to whirl away time. It was the day he would be buying Seth’s company
and he planned to bargain the price. “Who do we have here?” A soft voice laughed suddenly, startling
Grey for a moment. Actually, the voice replayed in his ears for a moment. He vividly remembered who
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe owner of the voice was. There was no way he would forget the woman he dated for six months, the
woman he loved.
Grey looked up at Nora. There was this teasing look on her face and Grey wondered if she was alone.
“I didn’t know you had the money to come to a place like this,” she laughed.” Oh, I forgot you work
now.”
Grey didn’t talk, he just watched her. “Nora, is something wrong?” A deep voice spoke from behind.
“No, darling,” Nora responded seductively. “We just came across a friend,” she laughed.
Seth walked closer and a flicker of shock passed across his eyes. “Grey?” He laughed and
remembered that he hadn’t been able to deal with him like he chose to. And fortunately for him, he
might not be able to do so, since he planned to elope with Nora.
“Nice to meet you too, Seth,” Grey said with no emotion. Nora took the wine bottle on the table.” Cheap
wine, Seth,” she seemed to be in a good mood. She lifted the bottle and slowly poured it right on Grey’s
lap, staining his trouser and shirt. “Sorry, that was a mistake. Anyway, your clothes are cheap. Seth
could pay for it, right?” She looked back at Seth with a funny expression. Seth laughed. “Sure, how
much can his suit be worth anyways? Maybe some bucks.”
Just as Grey turned to look at Seth, he caught Audrey walking toward them. He darted at his
wristwatch. It was 9 already and the time for the appointment. It
seemed like Audrey was going to meet Seth in Alfred’s restaurant.
That seemed like a piece of good news to Grey except for the fact that he was currently moving closer
to him. What if Audrey spilled the milk about him being Hercules?
