"That's actually a nice idea but Giovanni would try to get out of it easily. It would be as if it never
happened," Alfred observed.
Gregory nodded once. "You are right," he looked over at Grey. "Is this where your plan stops?"
Grey smirked and slowly shook his head. "Unfortunately not. You are right, Giovanni is known among
the police and it would be easy to stop the media and seal the police's lips. But," he hesitated and sat
up. "What if a dead person is involved?"
"What! A dead person? But who?” Jayden demanded.
"Here's what will happen. After the news spread out, Giovanni might not be that worried but Alex will.
He's impatient and acts blandly sometimes. And we are going to use that against him," Grey hinted.
"Seriously? You are really a good judge of character," Luciano smiled.
"Yeah but," he looked at Maria and realized the phone was in her hand at the moment. "Maria and
Jimmy should go ahead with the press and share the information on the internet. You must make the
news as bad and interesting. If Giovanni takes down a website," he looked at Jimmy. "Create two in its
stead. Your aim is to frustrate our enemies. We could get Giovanni to react but I'm pretty sure that Alex
would definitely be the one to react." He explained.
"Should I show our logo when we publish? Should we publish with Protos Pubblicita?" Maria inquired.
Grey shook his head briefly. "No, we don't want to make it look like we are trying to badmouth Giovanni
because he's our opposition. We want it to look like it was someone else that did it," he expatiated.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMaria nodded once and looked up. "I've sent the pictures to my phone. We will get to work
immediately," she assured.
Jimmy nodded once. "We will," he got up with Maria and they both bowed slightly before walking out of
the room.
"So, what do we do next after the news has spread?" Aphrodite asked before the room fell into silence.
Grey regarded Aphrodite for a moment. "We just need to get Alex to react. He probably would be
restricted by the reporters. They would also disturb the hell out of him that he would have no choice but
to tell the world that Jane is alive."
"Really?"
"Yes and that's why I need everyone because we must all watch out for Alex and Giovanni. We must
place our men at every corner, nothing must escape our sight or we will lose this chance," he warned
them.
"I will get my men around," Jayden said suddenly.
"I will as well," Gregory said quickly. "But," he looked at Grey. "When will someone die come into this
plan? And who is the dead person?"
Grey hesitated for a moment. "Jane will be the dead person," he announced suddenly.
"What!" Aphrodite exclaimed softly.
"This is getting interesting," Gregory drank more of his wine. "I knew Grey's plans are always
interesting and they always work."
"We are not sure yet," Alfred said quickly. "But we hope it does. And if it doesn't, we will make another
plan."
"Of course, it would," Grey smiled softly. Alex is going to take Jane out either of Giovanni's volition or
not. Though, we are not concerned about that. All that we are is the fact that we will attack Alex before
it goes public that Jane is really alive. And when the public arrives, they would see the dead Jane. And
let's see if Giovanni would be able to manage that," he stated with determination.
Gregory nodded briefly. "I like this plan."
"But what if Alex doesn't call the public?"
“Then we will call the public ourselves. We only need to kill Jane before they arrive and we need to
make sure that we take pictures the moment we get there. We will be the one to spread these pictures
to all and sundry," he explained further.
Gregory nodded. "This is indeed a great plan that requires great attention but we must make sure to
succeed."
Aphrodite nodded. "Very well. We must. I will get my men out to every hotel in Seattle."
"I will do the clubs and bars," Luciano added.
"I will make sure Giovanni and Alex are under watch," Alfred assured.
Grey nodded. "Great. The meeting has ended," he stood up. "We can all get ahead with what we've
agreed to."
"I need to get back to work," Jayden announced and stood.

the elders walked out, he continued to drink.
The elders chatted as they eventually walked out of the room except for Aphrodite who was silently
seeping her wine.
"Are you ok?" She asked with worry.
Grey nodded once. "I am but why are you not leaving?"
Aphrodite got up eventually. "I'm not leaving yet. I'm starving, I must eat."
Grey looked up at her. "Are you going to order?"
“No, because that's dangerous. I don't want reporters piling up in front of your house. I will rather cook,"
she voiced out.
"But why don't you just do that at your house?"
Aphrodite smiled. "As if you aren't hungry," she didn't say more as she went to the kitchen.
His phone rang suddenly, its noise interrupting him for a moment. It was Don. Had he discovered the
patient already?
"Boss, I've gotten some information about him. It wasn't at all visible online. It was as if someone was
trying to hide his identity but we have been able to find out about him, his name and address," he
revealed.
Grey sat up. "I would need to talk to him."
"Well," Don hesitated. "For a reason, he's on tight security. I was only able to get the little that I have
because of the plan I used but I wasn't even allowed to see him. Though, there's something that might
be helpful. He has a wife and I've found out where she stays currently. I suggest we speak to her
instead unless you want us to invade the hospital." 3
Grey thought for a moment. What should he do?
