CHAPTER 511: THE FIGHT
Within minutes, Grey was already clad in the blue suit.
"You can go inside immediately.The men wouldn't notice," Jimmy muttered.
Grey nodded once.
"I will be expecting you very soon.Jimmy nodded once.
"Alright boss."
Grey walked out from hiding and moved towards the door.
Truly, no one stopped him as they thought he was one of them.But when he got to the main door, he discovered that there were other security guards.
And they were dressed ina tuxedo.It was as if it was planned.
Grey bowed slightly so that they wouldn't be able to see his face, even though he has glasses on.
"Is everything wrong? Why aren't you at the garage?"
"There's something I need to tell the boss.That's why I'm here."
The man regarded Grey for a moment.
"I'm sorry but I can't let you in.The boss didn't give me the order to let any man unverified inside."
"I'm not unverified.I work for him.I just need to give him some information.Jimmy is around and he wants me to pass some information to him.It's kind of urgent," Grey explained.
The man hesitated, as he thought about it.
"I still can't let you in, unless I speak with Giovanni and he permits you in." Grey released a sigh.
The man was so unbending.
Besides, Jimmy didn't tell him this side of his plan.
Maybe he didn't know that Giovanni would be heavily guarding the hall.
Grey started to think of a way out.He could hit the men but that would arouse suspicion from inside.It could and several men could end up joining.It would not only delay but it would inform Giovanni even before he entered.
"What are you still doing here?"
A soft familiar voice asked suddenly and Avery stepped forward.
Avery regarded Grey for a moment before she looked at one of the security guards.
"What are you doing? The party just started.Are you trying to stop people from entering already?"
"Ma‘am, we aren't stopping you.But_"
"I'm not in the mood!" Avery said suddenly, harshly.
"I told him to meet with Giovanni and inform him of something private from Alex, his son but you refuse to let him in?" The man regarded Avery for a moment. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
"From Alex?"
Avery took her phone and pressed some buttons.She stretched the phone out to the guy.
The guy looked into his phone and compared the number.It was indeed the same phone number as his young master- Alex.
Avery made a quick flashback to when she disposed of the card.
Then, she had a quick thought as to the fact that she might need it.So, she took a shot of it.
When she saw Grey walk towards the entrance in one of the blue suits that the security guards were wearing, she decided to act.
"Would you like me to call him and inform him that his orders were delayed by you?"
The man shook his head briefly, totally in fear now.He knew how Alex could be.
In fact, Alex lacked the patience that Giovanni had.And if Alex killed him or try to, even Giovanni wouldn't stop him.
"No, ma‘am.I'm so sorry.You can both go in." Avery smiled.
"Good,"she muttered as the men stepped aside.
Avery and Grey walked inside.Grey had a lot of questions to ask Avery but he didn't even know how to start, novelebook.comcoupled with the fact that he didn't want to tarry.
"Avery, how did you know it was I?" Avery smiled.
"We will discuss that later.Now that I've seen you.I can enjoy the rest of the party," she finished and walked ahead of him quickly before Grey would say more.
She knew that Grey had something to do and discussing with him would delay him.
The hall was seething with people.
Avery could see people she knew in Jacksonville and out of it.
There were a lot of people from all over the world.
The raised platform had the special members in seats and Avery could see the two men that had agreed to be her investors.
Suddenly, Aphrodite was walking towards her.
Avery recognized her immediately.She was recently the acclaimed girlfriend of Hercules.
Avery didn't know why she felt a stab of pain at seeing her.
Maybe it was because she looked very pretty or because she was very successful or the fact that Grey could really be dating her.
Aphrodite walked past her and went to the entrance.
Avery watched her for a moment before she eventually looked away.
The special elders had a quick discussion with each other especially when they hadn't seen Grey.
Giovanni called one of the special members who was a woman and who has always supported him.
They had a quick discussion before they walked back to the hall.
The other special members decided eventually that Giovanni was going to take the position if Grey didn't show up.
Though, they knew how dangerous that was going to be.
Yet, they didn't want the situation whereby they would side with someone who couldn't even move past Giovanni's security.
"Wait, isn't that Avery," Douglas said softly and looked over at Avery who had just walked inside.
The party had started an hour ago and in fact, the king of the world would be announced soon.
And then, the party would proceed fully. lan and James followed the path of Douglas’ gaze toward Avery.
"Yes, it's really her.That means Grey is around somewhere," James confirmed.
They all nodded once, pleased at this.They were glad that Hercules was able to make it.
Avery looked up at the stage, as one of the special members walked out.It was time to announce the King of the world.She glanced back, realising that Grey hadn't stepped in.
Something seemed to be wrong.
One of Giovanni's men moved to whisper something into his ears and his expression changed immediately.He told the man something and he walked out.
At this point, Avery decided to check what was going on.As it turned out, a great fight had ensued between Giovanni's and Grey's men.
