CHAPTER 114
Chapter 114: Half success "You are in a serious mess and you are clapping. These men have seen your face. How would you do it?” Grey asked, worriedly.
James sighed and his expression morphed into a dark frown.
“I know.
I guess I'm going to stay hidden for a while," he sighed.
"Thanks for saving me anyways." Grey regarded him for a moment.” Is something wrong? Why are these men after you anyways? Did you support Hercules in Atomic Liquors again?" He teased.
James burst out into laughter that lasted for a minute.
" That was funny but no! Damn! I was drunk that day,” he protested.
Grey shrugged slightly." You could be drunk now." James shook his head amidst another round of laughter.
“No! Not that actually,” he became sober again.
"I'm investigating." Grey raised skeptical brows." Investigating? Are you a police officer?” t James shook his head quickly.” I’m not.
I was just looking for someone and I thought she was here.
But that doesn't even look to be the case," he said dejectedly.
Grey regarded it for a moment.
"What is this all about? Do you want to talk about it?” James looked up at him.
“My friend is missing.
I tried to check if she was part of the escorts.” Grey raised skeptical brows at him.” Escorts? Do they run an escort in here? At Atomic Liquors?" James nodded once.
"It's headed by Pablo." The puzzle was suddenly coming together.
The escorts were the reason why Atomic Liquors was becoming popular.
“But unfortunately, she’s not there,” James sighed.
“I thought she would, you know.
She told me that Pablo had once asked her out but she refused blatantly.
Pablo doesn't take no for an answer, instead, he would rather force whoever that is,” he explained.
Grey blinked once." Who is this Pablo?" "A rich, rude guy.
I bet he’s worse than Giovanni.”
Grey sighed.
“Maybe your friend left or something.
Perhaps, she went away with her lover or something.
Anything could have happened.”
James sighed.” You are right.
I mean I might be on a loose end.
Thanks once again, I will keep that in mind and I promise to help you out however that I can," he promised.
Grey smiled.
” You should be careful.
These men will still be out for you." James reciprocated his smile.
" Thanks, I will keep it in mind." Just as he turned to leave, Grey called out to him suddenly.
He turned around to look at him.
"What is the name of this escort? Does it have a specific name for it?” “Pablo, just Pablo female escorts.” Grey smiled again.” Bye,” he whispered and watched James walk down the street before he turned to walk back to Atomic Liquors.
He pulled off the nose mask and kept it in his pocket before he walked inside.
Music was blaring from every corner of the room.
And yes, there were a lot of people around.
Grey's gaze searched around for Don and found him chatting happily with a man in Black attire.
He moved to get champagne and find a seat close to Don.
The room was very occupied and it wasn't easy to notice anyone unless perhaps they had an eye for someone specifically.
However, even though Grey hasn't met Giovanni and hasn't seen him personally, his gaze searched around as if to see him.
He wouldn’t even recognize him anyways.
His phone beeped suddenly.
Grey took it and read through the message.
A smile appeared on his face at the revelation.
He had barely sipped the champagne but he stood up quickly and texted for Don to meet him outside.
Grey hit someone suddenly and his phone fell off his hand.
The man hurried to pick it up and stretched it to Grey.
Grey looked up and saw it was Alex.
“Alex?”
Alex smiled.
"Hello Grey, how have you been?" Grey smiled and took the phone from him.
"Fine, what about you?" "Fine but I never knew you came to Atomic Liquors.
I mean there are lots of clubs around to go," he wondered aloud.
Grey laughed shortly." Well, I go anywhere at any time.
You know, bars and clubs will always be the same.
At Least, they are all looking forward to satisfying the customers,” he indicated.
Alex nodded once." You are right but don't you think you are staying away from the gym? You said you would frequent the place but you haven't come at all," he complained.
Grey grinned." I'm sorry, I will amend that." Alex hit Grey slightly by the shoulder.
"Are you leaving now or would you like more drinks?" “Oh,” Grey shook his head.” I have to go now.
I'm not really a night person," that was partially true anyways.
“Alright, maybe some other time.
Take care of yourself,” he uttered and moved inside.
.
"Small world," Grey muttered before he walked to his car and drove out.
He barely parked when the door opened and Don got inside.
“Good news?”
Grey nodded briefly and sped up.
“Gregory had them.
We are going to his house right now." "Wow!" Don exclaimed softly.” I didn’t actually expect him to find them in the basement.” Grey nodded once." Same here.
I’m glad everything is going according to plan.” “Yes.
By the way, who were those men you were talking with earlier? I saw you guys chatting and I didn’t want to disturb you.
That was why I didn't move closer, " he explained.
Grey nodded once.” That’s good.
At Least, we can't trust anyone at this stage but he’s a gym instructor and he owns a gym,” he revealed.
Don nodded severally.
Grey soon pulled up in front of Gregory’s house.
He was so happy that he couldn’t contain it.
Gregory met him halfway and led him to the garden. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
“It was the best choice to attack them tonight.
Audrey had few men guarding the place and it was very easy to bring them down.” Grey smiled.” Thank you.
I'm so glad." Gregory smiled as well." I'm glad I could help.” Grey hesitated as he looked up at the children playing in the garden.
He blinked once, then twice before he looked at Gregory.
"Where are the adults?" Gregory sent him the same confused look.
“What adult? I found just five children
there.
What adults are you talking about?" LITTLUN "I mean the mothers of the children.
There should have been a Naomi," Even Grey was more than confused.
Gregory shook his head slightly." I'm sorry to burst your bubble but there was no mother,” he announced.
