Chapter 104: Problem solved Just as the conference call was about to start, a soft knock sounded on the door. Grey groaned and stood to open the door. Tina was at the door.

“I’m sorry for disturbing you but I had to remind you of the meeting. It’s 2 already and the investors have arrived,” she revealed.

Grey nodded once. “Yes, I remember. I will be off soon. Let them know I’m on my way,” he muttered.

“Alright,” she nodded as well and walked away.

Grey locked the door again before he moved back to his seat

Finally, he started the conference call

“Hello, Hercules. It’s a pleasure to be on a conference call with you,” Joe uttered, with a hint of happiness.

“Yes, I was surprised when Janet told me you would like to have a conference call with us. It’s a pleasure,” Andrew laughed.

“Yes, I’m so glad that you have me as an audience,” Grey started.” I really need your help.”

“Really? What could it be?” Gaius inquired.” We will gladly help.”

Grey smiled.” I’m so glad for that reception. Anyways, I will get straight to the point. As you know that I have a lot of companies, and well, I have one that’s lagging and I would love for you to support it.” “Really? You have a new company?” Gaius asked excitedly. “Yes, I do. You might not notice because I didn’t want to reveal that for a while but I currently need investors to support it.” He explained

“Is that the help you need?” Joe asked, skeptical.

Grey went silent for a moment. “Y_yes.” owns all content.

Joe laughed. “That’s not a help. We will gladly help. We have always wanted to help Hercules in any way that we can.” He revealed.

“Yes, this is something we will be pleased to do. You don’t need to ask us for it. Actually, I would like to support all your companies but most of them are registered under Protos Pubblicita, which means supporting them means supporting every one of your companies,” Gauis explained.

Grey nodded again, out of attitude. “This is great news.”

Andrew laughed. ” Very great news. It’s not every day we get Hercules to call us.” Grey laughed.” Thanks for honoring me.”

“The pleasure is ours,” they chorused. “Alright, we should talk later,” Grey dismissed them. The men said their byes before Grey hung up. They were so happy and Grey felt accomplished. He picked a file on the table and dashed out of the office.

Tina rushed forward. “Sir, the investors are leaving already. Miss Maria is trying to make them stay back.”

Grey nodded once.” I’m over there now. Don’t worry, I got this,” he assured and moved towards the board room.

Truthfully, the men were outside the room, fusing and complaining about a lot of things while Maria was trying to explain what the case could be. “I’m sorry. He’s just so busy but he will be here soon,” Maria tried to placate them.

“No! We will not condone this insolence! How dare he leave us here for other business?” Philip snapped.

“Yes, this is one of the reasons why we pulled out in the first place. That man doesn’t deserve the post of manager!” Mathias uttered in a deep voice. “I’m here,” Grey stopped a few feet before them. “Good afternoon gentlemen,” he said with a smile.

“What’s so good in the afternoon? Seems like it’s your specialty to keep people waiting,” Biden yelled at Grey. “Yes,” Matt chimed in.” He must think we are his to order around.”

Grey smiled softly.” You are getting the wrong picture. I was really busy and now that I’m here, I have something important to show to you and I don’t want you to waste more time chatting in front of the board room,” he expressed.

The men groaned. “I sincerely don’t have time for this. Do you think I don’t have a company of my own or a business to operate?” Biden yelled in anger.

“Yes, we don’t have the time for this. Even though this company doesn’t belong to you, you should work towards the best interest of the company,” Matt hauled at him.

Grey decided to stay cool.” Actually, I have a proposal to make with you. It’s very lucrative and you will be gaining a lot as well,” he explained to them.” But it’s your choice if you want to stay or not.” “I think you should stay. You will have a lot of benefits from it,” Maria supported Grey even though she didn’t even know the proposal that Grey was talking about.

“We will give you just fifteen minutes or we will be out of here,” Biden informed.

Seeing that they were all voicing the same thing, Grey was sure that it could still be Chris’ handiwork.

“Ten minutes is enough for me,” Grey told them.

The ten investors exchanged gazes for a moment before they walked back inside the room.

Grey turned to look at Maria. “You can leave now, I will handle the rest.”

Maria took a short bow.” You’ve not taken anything for lunch. Do you want me to order something for you?”

Grey thought for a moment.” Tell Tina to order the usual thing.”

Maria nodded once. “Alright sir, bye for now then.” She walked away Grey walked inside the room and regarded the men for a moment before he moved to sit.

“I’m sorry for keeping you waiting,” he apologized as he brought out a file for the document. “I had to attend to something quickly. Here,” he stretched the file out to Biden as he was close by.” You can pass it to others to see what it’s all about,” he jibed.

The men looked into the file one after the other.

“I’m not going to beg you to invest in this company but I want you to know that as you are pulling out, three big investors are pulling in.” “What is that supposed to be? A warning?” Matt boomed. Grey looked at Matt.” No, just a foreshadowing. If you don’t invest in our company now, we won’t allow you again. This opportunity only comes once,” he revealed “Are you trying to play us?” Mathias was getting angry now. “No,” Grey shook his head slowly. “I’m only telling you to think it through before accepting an offer that would harm you. SU world will start reigning and we won’t consider you again, for anything.”

Biden raised skeptical brows.” Who are those investing?”

Grey let out a sigh and relaxed in his chair.” Confidential. We will not discuss that, not yet. But I assure you that you are in for a big surprise.”

The men exchanged curious gazes. Somehow, they couldn’t help but believe what Grey had told them.

“So, what do you say? Will you take it or not?”

Biden went quiet for a moment and gently released a sigh. “We will take it. We will continue to be your investors.” He announced.

Grey took in a deep breath and a smile evaded his face. Problem solved!
