Chapter 57: Sack the boss?
Grey actually thought only Alfred had membership cards. He didn’t know that Hercules had his.
Well, he heard from Charles that his father had a lot of businesses. With the card, he could get
anything for free
A smile appeared on his face when he remembered that Avery’s birthday was near and he didn’t even
have any clothes lo wear. He might have to visit any of Hercules’ stores later on
Not that he doesn’t have the money obviously, it was something that he wanted to enjoy
Even though he doesn’t know if the relationship between him and Avery will get better by then. Her
birthday was just in a week.
Grey pulled the small iron box to himself. Since he wasn’t really busy, he might use the opportunity to
go through his father’s assets
The files on top were arranged differently. When he perused them, he realized that it was about his
father’s shares in other companies
He couldn’t believe his eyes. His father owns a lot of companies but he still has shares in other
companies
He decided to read through perhaps he might see companies that he recognized
His eyes went wide at the name on number ten. It was none other than Seth’s company, the KK
corporation where Nora worked at
And his father had 70% shares

He had never imagined that the proud Smith had Hercules as his godfather. Imagine him Irampling on
the Grey Fox but using Hercules’s wealth behind him Seth has no courtesy
Grey shook his head in pity Seth doesn’t know that he could hurt him and well, he would. Since it was
Seth that sent the men to deal with him, he would also deal with him
Grey placed a call to Charles immediately. Charles picked it up after the second ring,
“Hi Grey. his voice was thick and cool. He sounded as if he was initially sleeping.
I’m very sorry for disturbing you but I need an answer real quick, I saw that my father has shares in
some companies. How can I get across 10 someine from these companies?”
* Well, that will be through me. I’ve been running the errands on behalf of you all these years,” he
explained and yawned “And well, don’t ask me. I was the one that signed in your stead but it was
mainly because of business,” he added quickly.
Grey smiled as a bulb went off in his head.” Then, I have an assignment for you. There’s a company
here that I would like 10 have my shares withdrawn from.”
* Really?” Charles’ voice sounded clearer now.” What company is that? And may I get the details sent
to me through email?
‘Sure, I will do that now It’s KK corporation,” Grey revealed
Alright, I will be in the city as early as possible.” Good,” Grey bided him and hung up
Grey woke up to his ringing phone. It stopped almost immediately.
He took the phone and checked through. He had missed calls from Avery, Caramel, and even Maria
What time was it? 8:00 am
Grey mentally yelled as he rushed into the bathroom. How did he wake up so late?
He had to take one of his old suits as his expensive sults were at Robinson’s house
He rushed out of the house with his black membership card and his debit card
It was 9:00 am when he drove out of his apartment. At around 10 am, he got to work
However, as he stepped inside the company, he started to hear some whispers and they seemed to be
about him.
“He’s coming this way! One of the workers muttered as Grey walked closer to the elevator
The workers would stiff and greet him whenever he walked past them while others would pretend as if
they were talking about something else.
He didn’t hear them clearly and he couldn’t even make out anything from what they were saying
Though. he knew it could be because of his lateness
He entered the elevator and his phone rang again. It was Maria this time
“I am in the office already, why is she calling me?” He complained and ignored the call
Just as Grey stepped out of the elevator, his phone rang again He sighed and decided to pick it up.
However, it stopped ringing again.
“Good morning sir,” Maria said suddenly, startling him for a moment
Grey looked up at her and smiled. “Good morning Why have you been disturbing me with your calls?”
Maria sighed. You came late and Jane has been waiting for you,” she stated
Grey raised skeptical brows at her “Why?”
Maria regarded him for a moment, “You are about to get fired,” she revealed with a roll of her eyes
Grey was still not getting it.” What do you mean by that?”
Just as Maria opened her mouth to say something else, her phone rang She picked it up and turned

lobby
It was at this moment that he realized what was really happening. Jane wanted to disgrace him in front
of the workers and then sack him but he wondered who had put her to the job.
Could it be Seth?
In the elevator, Grey typed some messages to Jane but left them hanging The message would get
delivered to her whenever he pressed the ‘send’ button but he wanted to know the steel that Jane was
made of
“Wonderfull Jane clasped her palms together as Grey walked into the lobby Jane was slowly walking
closer “You came late and you dared to walk so calmly?” She pointed out and stopped walking. Her
shoulders were raised proudly and a smirk across her face
The workers moved closer slowly, each wanting to know what Jane’s decision would be
“Good morning I’m sorry but I slept off,” Grey opined.
Jane scoffed.” As if I’m concerned about your cock and bull story? I don’t believe you resumed work in
less than a week and you are acting like the boss,’ she snarled. The lone of her voice made the other
workers shudder in fear
Well, everyone has always feared Jane Her voice was like the law whenever Hercules’ company was
concerned.
“Why haven’t you sack him?” A rich baritone voice came out suddenly and everyone gasped. Seth
walked closer to them.
What are you waiting for now? You should let him go home now,” he added.
Grey wasn’t surprised, he just wasn’t expecting that Seth would pursue him to the end of the world The
good news was that he was ahead of him already. If only he knew_
