Chapter 552:: Governor's missing "But what if it's not? We still have to think about that," Charles muttered.
"It could be Giovanni's idea for us to think in that manner. He could be planning to have the watch for himself and I don't want you to forget that we need this watch." Grey nodded once. He bent his head thoughtfully. Charles was right. Any mistake and they might lose the chance to get at Giovanni.
"What should we do, boss?" Grey looked up finally. "We will go with our initial plan. Only a little of it will change. We will lure Giovanni to be able to succeed with our plan." Charles raised skeptical brows. "What
do you mean?" Grey looked at him. "We are vacating my estate. Make sure everyone gets to safety, only leave behind some men, and make sure they leave the moment Giovanni's men arrive. No one must die," he explained.
"Alright, boss," Charles nodded briefly.
"1 will tell the governor that the plan has changed. He will have to move very fast. That aside, I think you will have to move as well," Grey darted at his wristwatch. "We don't know the plan that Giovanni has laid down already." Charles nodded once, finally understanding. "I will do that so that I can join you at the auction."
"You don't actually need to. Stay with them and make sure they are all safe," he signed. "I don't want anyone to | die." Charles nodded again and stood. "T will get to work," he bowed slightly and walked out Grey looked at Don. "I have another job for you. You will be escorting Alex out of the estate. You and the men will make sure he safely gets to the location. Is that clear?" Don bowed slightly. "I understand sir. I will gather the men and wait for your instructions." Grey nodded once. Don bowed slightly and walked out as well.
He pulled out his phone and placed a call to the governor. It rang twice
before he picked it up.

"Alright. May I know what this is all about?" "T have decided to change the location.
Iwill send you the address when I've decided. Then the rest can go accordingly," he explained.
"Alright, that's good. I can still work with that. Do remember to inform me earlier, at least an hour. It will help," he informed him.
Grey smiled softly. "I will do that," he finished and hung up.
He released a sigh of relief. At least, his plan was going to work.
He placed a call to Alfred next. Alfred picked it up immediately.
"Hello, Hercules. Is everything alright?" "Yes, the auction is starting in less than four hours. I need to ask about the men that are following me. We need to be cautious. Giovanni might be planning anything. We can't afford to fall into his trap," he explained.
"T understand, Hercules. I will assemble the men immediately," he assured.
"Alright, get back to me," he muttered and hung up.
He released a sigh, maybe for the umpteenth time that day. He suddenly
| had a lot on his mind. Besides, he wanted to go through what Richard and Giovanni were planning to do with™ the people they kidnapped.
Aside from that, he still had to think of SU World. He had to move forward. He had to restart SU World. As much as it pained him, he had to move forward.
He walked inside the kitchen and hesitated.
Grey slept off after eating. He woke up a few minutes before 6. The auction was going to start at seven in the night.
He took his phone and realized that he had a missed call from the governor.
Though, he was able to decide on the location before he slept. In fact, he had already sent it to Don and the
governor.
Everything was going accordingly.
He placed a call to the governor as he got out of bed.

"Hello, Hercules. The designated time is 7, right?" "Yes. I have my men guarding Alex already. So, you don't have to worry about it. Everything will go according to plan as long as you stick to time," he assured.
"Alright boss." The phone went off and Grey safely placed it on the bed before he entered the bathroom for a quick shower.
He donned a blue Italian suit. When he stepped inside the living room, Alfred
was waiting for him.
"The men are ready," he announced.
Grey nodded once. "But are you going to the auction as Grey or Hercules?" "I'm going as Grey. I've been to the auction as Grey. That wouldn't change until further notice. So, yes, you can step back. I will be fine," he assured.
Alfred nodded once. "Alright." They stepped into the garage. There were four cars whose engine write still running and there were six men beside each car.
Alfred and Grey walked to Grey's car.
"with the men, I'm sure Giovanni wouldn't try anything stupid." Grey smiled slightly. "I'm sure he wouldn't." Just as he was about to enter the car, his phone rang suddenly. It was one of the governor's men, Titus.
Grey hesitated before he picked it up.
"Hello." "Hello, Hercules. There's a huge problem sir." Grey frowned. "What could be the matter? What happened?" "The governor is missing." Grey was skeptical. "What do you mean by the governor is missing." "He received a phone call from an
unknown number. Then he drove off | and we have been waiting for him to come back but he hasn't. We've tried | his number as well but he didn't pick up until recently when the number was no more available. I think something else might have happened, this is why I'm calling," he explained "How long has this been?" Titus hesitated. "Just ten minutes." Grey closed his eyes for a moment. Rl will send you the address of a location.
You need to go there immediately and retrieve Alex."
