Chapter 335: The world knows
Grey doubted if Aphrodite even knew it was him in the room. And that reminded him of the fact that the
other man might actually show up if he leaves.
He was smiling sheepishly the other time that Grey actualy felt like punching the living day out of him.
He turned to look at Aphrodite and realized she was looking up at him.
"Are you alright? Do you see me clearly?"
Aphrodite blinked once, then twice. "You should leave, I’m expecting someone."
Grey chuckled strangely. 'That one I saw you kissing in the bar? You must be kidding. If you must have
a guy, he shouldn't be him. It should be someone very good than I am. Look at him, he's not even
handsome and he doesn't have a nice height or nice skin," he complained.
Aphrodite sighed. "There's no way he would be as good as you. You are the Hercules after all," she
mumbled and closed her eyes.
Grey didn't know why he was doing so much to stop the union between the two. Well, he was just
concerned about her safety, nothing else.
"Besides, he's a stranger. You shouldn't be hanging around with someone like him."
Aphrodite laughed, even in her sleep. "I can hang around with whoever I want, Grey. Stop treating me
like your sister because I'm not. Now, leave because I have someone coming over."
Grey huffed. "I will break his nose if he shows up here, I promise you, Aphrodite!" He left the bedroom
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtangrily and moved into the living room. He decided to stay and see if the man would show up before he
would go to his room. In fact, he could sleep on the couch.
His blood actually boiled whenever he remembered the kiss Aphrodite shared with the man. But it
doesn't even make any sense why he was. Aphrodite wasn't his sister truly. But well, she was someone
he should care for, which was exactly what he was doing.
Aphrodite could have any man but not a total stranger.
Giovanni was in his room when his phone rang suddenly. It was one of his men. He picked it up
immediately.
"Yes, how is it going?"
"Boss, there's a problem. Grey is nowhere to be found. We've checked everywhere but it's empty. In
fact, we can't find one of his guards here and we've been waiting for so long thinking he only went out
and would come back. Unfortunately, he's still nowhere to be found after an hour.
The information pulled an angry nerve in him. He thought that Grey would die that night but he had
escaped it yet again.
But well, another plan is currently in place anyways. If Grey refused to die just yet, then he would be
disgraced. He would eventually be impeached as the billionaire president which would be the first step.
"Come back home. Instead, there's something else you will do for me."
The members of the billionaire club just left and Martin had to warn him about Jake. Jake was very
close with the godfather and would definitely hold his interest. The other elders were supposed to rebel
against the godfather but Jake would definitely spoil the plan.
And he didn't want to kill him, just yet anyways. He would just have to threaten him and make him keep
his mouth sealed. Well, if he had known of his attitude, he wouldn't have invited him.
"I want you to keep an eye on Jake, a member of the billionaire club. Inform me if he makes any
contact with the godfather."
"Alright boss."
Giovanni stared hard at the wall. He needed to plan a way to kill Grey, a plan that must work.
The ringing of the phone jerked Grey out of his sleep. It was Charles. Just as he was about to pick it
up, it stopped ringing and Grey discovered that He had missed calls from Alfred as well as Charles.
They must have called when Grey was with Aphrodite in the bedroom because he didn't even check
his phone before he slept off.
The phone started ringing again and this time, it was Alfred. He picked it up.
"Hello, Alfred. I was asleep when you called. Is everything alright?"
"Well, I was going to ask about the trip because you didn't go with any entourage."
Grey smiled. "I will be fine," he assured.
"Alright. I just received a message from one of the members of The Billionaire club. We have a meeting
in four days," he announced. "You are coming, right?"
Grey nodded once and remembered what he had planned to do with Giovanni. Though, he was going
to think it over several times before he conclude if it was a nice plan or not.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Alright, take care then. Also, when is Leo showing before the elders?"
Grey reason for a moment. "There should be a general meeting in a week. Leo will show by then."
"Alright, bye for now then."
And the line went off. Grey stared at the phone for a moment before he m decided to call Charles.
Charles picked it up immediately as if he had been waiting for Grey to call. Of course, he has. He had
been looking around for him. After Leo had left, Charles expected Grey to come back to the room but
he never did. So, he started calling his line.
"Where are you?"
"I'm in Aphrodite’s room."
"Why? Did something happen to Aphrodite?"
Grey darted at his watch and realized it was rather too late. "No, Aphrodite is fine. I will be coming to
the room now," he assured and the phone went off.
He walked back to the bedroom and confirmed that Aphrodite sleeping soundly before he walked out of
the room. Their room was beside Aphrodite's room.
He slipped inside. "Are you sure nothing is wrong?" Charles probed In.
Grey nodded once. "I just met Aphrodite kissing a guy and I had to take care of her especially when it
looked like the guy would come back."
Charles laughed. "Are you jealous?"
Grey huffed and moved to sit. 'There's no way that will happen."
Charles nodded briefly. 'Then you really have to find something to do on behalf of Aphrodite. She's
going to lose herself if she continues to love a guy that wouldn't love her back," he muttered.
Grey looked at him quickly. "You know?"
Charles laughed. "Everyone knows. The whole world thinks so as well.
