CHAPTER 477: OLD PEOPLE

"So, we are safe for now?" Aphrodite inquired jokily.

Grey laughed at this.

"Yes, we are.It's nothing to worry about actually.I told you I would handle it perfectly." Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

Aphrodite moved closer and planted a kiss on his cheek.

"I know, love.I know that you are capable.I just get worried sometimes.There are lots of dangers lurking around and I wouldn't want you to fall into what your father did."

Grey looked up at her for a moment and slowly held her hand.

"I'm not my father, Novia.I won't die like him.And I won't let the woman I love die as well," he swore.

Somehow, his inner voice asked.

‘Does it include Avery?’ Even though Grey doesn't want to be with Avery again, he wouldn't doubt the fact that he still wanted her to be safe.

Aphrodite stepped back and smiled briefly.

"Alright, I will trust you on that."

Grey reciprocated the smile.

"Go, get dressed, and let's go shopping." Aphrodite's smile widened.

"Alright!"

She whooped with delight and hurried inside.

Grey regarded her for a moment, with a smile on his face until she was out of sight.His phone rang suddenly.It was Maximo.

"Hello, Maximo.How are you doing?"

"Great, I hope I'm not interrupting?"

"Oh no," Grey laughed.

"Not yet, actually.Is something wrong?"

"Well, yes.When I got back to the company, Avery was waiting for me.She came to ask for your phone number and address."

"What! Did you give it out?" Grey felt alarmed.

Well, if Maximo gave her the number she was familiar with, it would expose him as Grey.

"No, calm down," Maximo snorted with laughter.

"I didn't.I mean I couldn't do that behind your back.I told her that I would call you and get back to her," he explained.

Grey released a sigh.

"Thank you.I will call her myself because there's a particular phone number that she knows with me.I won't be able to escape the reason why I'm not Grey but I have his numbers."

"Alright, I've sent the number to you, right? You should do whatever you see fit," Maximo finished and the line went off.

Grey released a relieved sigh.

Avery seemed to be very serious about the business issue.

Avery took a shower and got dressed in casual clothes.It was evening eventually and time to go to Bobino Milano to see David.

Maximo hasn't gotten back to her which meant that David wasn't planning on giving her the information she had requested, at least not soon.

He was proving really stubborn but Avery was more stubborn.

It was quarter past eight when Avery arrived at Bobino Milano's nightclub.

The place was seething with a lot of people and for once, Avery felt she was really going to enjoy herself aside from meeting with David too.

"Hey! Where are you going?"

One of the bouncers asked suddenly in a way that showed he wasn't really a native English speaker as she was about to enter the club.

Bobino Milano was actually a club and a bar.

So, some people were going to the bar, while some were going to the club.

"Inside," she muttered, a bit confused.

"No! No! No!" The man shook his head briefly.

"You can't go inside," he was still using that weird accent.

"See?"

He gestured towards a woman that was coming behind Avery.She was wearing a very short mini leather skirt, and a leather blouse as well.

Avery watched the woman for a moment, as she was allowed into the club before she looked down at herself and realised where the problem was.

The clothes she was wearing were more hideous and not the type that they wanted in the club.

Different clubs, with different rules.

Avery turned away, somehow feeling disappointed.

Well, she wasn't going to give up like that.She desperately wanted to meet with David.She entered her car and drove past Bobino Milano.

Malls were closed already because of the time.

But there was one still available and people were rushing in and out of it.

Avery found a nice space to park and entered the store.

"Isn't this perfect?" A voice was saying.

Avery's gaze searched around quickly and she eventually realised it was what she had been looking for.She walked towards one of the salespeople.

"Hello."

"Hello," the woman looked up at her, with a huge smile on her.

"You look new. Were you also stopped at the door?"

Avery couldn't understand what she meant.

"What are you talking about?"

She shrugged briefly.

"Bobino Milano.They have strict rules around her but they are also one of the best clubs in this place," she announced.

"Come, I will show you a nice dress you could wear." She led her to a room filled with a variety of clothes.

"I have a special one for you.I reserved it, especially for someone like you," she laughed and disappeared around the racks of clothes.

Avery used the opportunity to look around.

"I heard there are people of high personality in Bobino Milano tonight.In fact, Maximo is also around," someone whispered.

The woman walked out again but with a black short gown.

"I will help you with little makeup for a little fee if you don't mind." Avery smiled softly.

"I don't, actually."

"I didn't expect you to make such a proposal.Finally, we are getting off being strangers.I love it actually," Alex muttered.

Maximo laughed as he drowned his vodka.

"Actually, it feels good.We could do this some other time too."

"Anything concerning Grey?"

"Not yet.My men are still combing through the street to look for him."

Alex nodded once.

"Let's forget about that and enjoy this moment."

Maximo nodded once and drowned more of the vodka.

"What do we have here?"

A feminine voice said suddenly.

Alex and Maximo were forced to look up at the intruder.

Alex's eyes went wide when he saw who it was.He wasn't really expecting to see her.

The shocking thing was that she seemed close to Maximo.Was there any foul work at play?
