CHAPTER 482: APPROVED

Avery had sweaty hands as she waited for the special members.

Actually, when one of the men went inside to announce that she was around, Avery had a tiny fear that her proposal might be rejected.

Well, it wouldn't matter, she was somehow certain that Grey was going to get Charles’ cooperation.He was a mafia lord like Charles anyways.So, it wouldn't be hard to get him on their side.

If the special members reject her, it won't be too painful for her.

She glanced at the men standing in front of the room and shivered slightly.

They were all giving this fearful vibe.

In fact, she wasn't as scared as she was at this moment, like when she was with David, even after she knew who David really was.

The only time she was scared was when David pulled the prank on her earlier.

She felt secure and at peace whenever she was with David.

It was as if she had known him for ages.The door opened behind her suddenly and she turned around almost immediately.

An older man walked out, with a dark frown on his face.

Avery moved closer to him. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

"Good day, sir.Can I talk with you about this business proposal?" He shook his head.

"We are all kind of interested," he announced.

Avery felt like jumping up for joy.

"But I'm kind of very busy at this moment.You could come later, would that be alright?"

"Yes sir," Avery said quickly.

"I will be so glad to fix a day that's good for you," she muttered.

The man shook his head briefly.

"You do that," he smiled briefly and stretched out a card to her.

"Call me, in the evening to be precise.I will be totally free by then."

Avery took it with a heart full of joy.

"I'm so grateful, sir.Thank you so very much.I will see you later," she bowed slightly and walked away.

When she got to the elevator, she whooped in delight.

David's plan eventually worked.She took out her phone and placed a call to him.

"You now know what Giovanni really is," Grey muttered.

"Would you still allow him to be part of the special members? You do know that he has only one of the awards to go for, to be initiated as part of the special members?"

The door opened and the third member walked in.

"I've given her my business card.So, we will talk with her later," he announced to everyone.

Grey nodded once and opened his mouth to talk but the ringing of his phone placed a sudden stop to it.He took his phone and realised it was Avery.He looked at the members.

"I'm sorry but I need to take this," he muttered and stepped aside.

"Hello, Avery."

"Oh My! You can't believe it," Avery yelled with excitement.

Grey smiled slightly.

Avery was certainly happy about something.

"What is it?"

"One of the members just gave me his business card and I'm supposed to call him in the evening and arrange a meeting day with him.I'm so happy!"

"Wow, this is good,"

Grey feigned surprise.

Avery laughed.

"So, when will you be done?"

"Well, you just disrupted what I was doing.Now, I don't know when I will be done because Charles hates distraction but I will try my best.I will be down very fast, I'm sure of it.Just wait for me," at a second thought, he laughed briefly.

"You don't have a choice, anyways, or do you?" Avery scoffed.

"So arrogant!"

She muttered and hung up.

Grey smiled again before he returned to the members.

"So, you want us to make you the king of the world?" One of the members initiated.

"Well, to make Giovanni feel cornered, I should be the next King of the world.You do know that Giovanni would make a comeback.But he knows who I am even though I am yet to reveal my identity,"

Grey responded.

One of the members cleared his throat.

"So, are you saying you are willing to reveal your identity? Because that would happen if you are made the king of the world."

Grey looked at the screen at Alfred, as he went deep into thoughts.

"Are you thinking about it? I mean there's nothing else to think about,"

Maximo muttered, "It has been a while, I mean you have always lived your life as a commoner, isn't it high time to claim what is rightfully yours?"

"Revealing himself would actually make a great deal among people.People would want to see the masked Hercules eventually," Leonardo muttered.

"But you guys don't know who he still has to deal with.Giovanni is still alive and he's currently after his life.He planted a bomb in his car and he missed death at gunpoint," Alfred explained.

"Seriously? It was Giovanni that tried to kill you?"

One of the members asked.

Grey nodded once.

"It's a fight for fitness, actually.That's not the case now," he hesitated.

"I'm not going to reveal my identity but there's always a way to go about it.I'm going to come on stage actually, without a mask but no one would be able to recognize me," he smiled softly.

"With your help actually.You could announce that I work undercover as Grey.That would also excite the people."

Everyone shook their heads slightly in acceptance.

"As I was saying earlier, it's ok for Giovanni to join you but we now know how cunning he could get.If he becomes one of you, he's going to start planting his people among the special members.Giovanni doesn't care if you guys die as long as he's able to get his desired results.But if you go with me, I will help you," Grey explained.

Alfred nodded again.

"Grey has challenged Giovanni severally and in fact, led his son into prison."

"And you should have heard of the famous Hercules.He's not an ordinary man, he's only dressed as one now," Gregory said.

"So, I want you to convince the court.It's still going to be a fair election.Though, there's one member you will have to avoid.She's in allegiance with Giovanni," Grey announced.

"We know her,"one of the members muttered.

"Maybe that's how Giovanni was able to be the King of the world in two rows," another member muttered.

"But I would like to challenge him," the third member said suddenly.

"With his enemy.It would be fun anyways.Hercules would make a huge comeback.He would even be more powerful, he should be able to help us whenever we need him.The majority of the members of the billionaire club were actually ordinary people and not even mafia lords.

"If we declare you as the King of the World, it would get us on the bad side.But I'm willing to go on."

"You won't be alone.Being undercover would in fact help you very much," Grey assured.

The men looked at each other and communicated silently.

"We agree," one of the members said suddenly.
