Chapter 34: Purpose
Grey entered the car but he didn’t miss the shocking look on Cindy’s face.
“Can I play music, Mr Grey?” The driver inquired.
Grey nodded. “Sure. But where are we going?”
‘Aphrodite Villa”
Grey found himself staring hard at the big building in front of him. The house was nothing like
Robinson’s house Aphrodite was strikingly rich But with what Alfred and Gregory had said, Hercules’s
net worth was like multiplication of what he had been seeing recently.
Grey couldn’t really wait to find out how nich he really was He couldn’t wait for Charles to be back.
“Can we go, Mr Grey?” The driver asked politely He seemed to respect Grey so much and Grey
wondered why
Grey followed him inside the spacious living room that looked like heaven on Earth
Three ladies walked out from the inner room. They walked over to Grey and stopped to give him a
short bow The driver turned around now, leaving Grey to the mercy of the ladies
They walked him towards another door by their left Grey entered the room. He stopped by the door and
looked up at Aphrodite
Aphrodite sat on the cushion with a wine cup in her hand There was a bright smile on her face as her
gaze met with Grey
‘Are you kidding me, Grey?” There was sarcasm in her voice. She stood and grabbed another cup filled

Grey accepted
“Why do you think so?
Aphrodile regarded him for a moment. She doesn’t fit your status as the Hercules,” she smiled and
walked back to the chair, swinging her ass so delicately ihal Grey found himself smiling. Aphrodite was
so beautiful, there was no doubt about that
“Who I chose to marry doesn’t concern you, Novia It’s not something you should meddle with,” Grey
scolded her and took a sip of the wine
Aphrodite sal ‘You are keeping it from me, Grey. You are nothing but a useless son-in-law to Robinson.”
Grey’s hand around the glass cling How did you know thai?’
Aphrodite smiled ‘I can get information as fast as i want whenever I snap my fingers,” she laughed ”
Shocked?’
Grry smiled ‘Impressive “he walked closer to Aphrodite and look his seat I didnt expect you to be this

inble We shouldn’t retiri Today 11 9 going to jeopardize
everything I’m waiting for Charles to come back. Though, I’m not in a hurry. And yes, being Robinson’s
in law is the best for me. I seriously need it No one is supposed to know who I am, not now,” he
explained.
Aphrodite met his gaze for silent minutes of communication. “Now that wasn’t the main question. Do
you love Avery?
Grey went silent for a moment Even though he knew what the answer was, he was still hesitant to talk.
He was married to Avery after all. He was supposed to protect her as one
“No, I don’t love her,” he said anyway. ‘We should meet in clubs but not at your house I heard there is
currently a spy in the group.”
Aphrodite nodded ‘Not in my lane! I don’t tolerate spies! I will kill them immediately,” she muttered
thickly
Grey smiled, ” Thai’s good to hear.”
As I’ve heard, Charles is returning in months Will you sincerely wait for him?”
Grey nodded slightly I Will That’s why I still need to be an in-law to Robinson,” he picked the cup again
after Aphrodite had filled it up
Aphrodite cleared her throat.” You are going to wait so long to come back?
Grey sat up and stared at Aphrodite from the rim of the glass. ” I’m not doing this for myself, I’m doing it
for my men I have the responsibility to protect them It doesn’t matter if Charles comes back today, I’m
still going to be under cover until the spy has been found I will not die like my father,” he muttered.
He couldn’t tell Aphrodite who had killed his father He doesn’t want to tell anyone anyways He needed

Aphrodite nodded “You should never love Avery. just remember that And when the time comes, you
guys are getting divorced for real. Well, she doesn’t even like you to begin with.” she opined with
seriousness
Grey didn’t know if she was just worried about him or if there was more that he doesn’t know
He nodded anyway “You should be careful, danger looms everywhere,’ he advised.
Aphrodite nodded briefly. Let’s meet again A cinema is much ok, right?”
Grey met her gaze for some minutes “When?”
I will lext you,’ she smiled as she noted the deep lines of worry on his face. “Don’t worry, it wouldn’t
contrast with your silly time with Avery Though. I’m sure that even Avery wouldn’t mind
Grey siniled ‘You are funny. Novia
“But I need your help currently, he drew in breath as he thought about it. It was his mess anyways and
he was supposed to be the one to clear it up
Shoo1,’ she permitted him
“Iallacked one of Glovanni’s men, and now they are after me and Avery I wouldn’t want them to hurt
her.”
Aphrodite regarded him for a moment I will do that for you”
Grey smiled Thank you! And he stood up
