CHAPTER 89
Chapter 89: Hide not expose! Grey regarded Audrey for a moment and moved away from the gun. Just as he did that, one of his men rushed to take the gun out of Audrey or his men’s reach.
Grey moved to the table and took a pen from the dozens of pens in the case.
“So, tell me your plan,” he asked and looked at him briefly before he tore away a piece of paper from one of the books on the table. “I’m going to call Seth right away and let him know that there’s a change in plan.
The buyer won’t be meeting him personally. That will give me the benefits to retrieve_”
“Not interested, “Grey said quickly, cutting him off abruptly.” I’m going to buy the company from him, as planned,” he opined.
Audrey squeezed his forehead in concentration, he hated when someone interrupted him so abruptly. It made him feel so upset but he suppressed the anger.

“Boss, that would waste your money,” Don said quickly. Gre scribbled something into the paper and folded it before replacing the pen. “I have more than enough to worry about that. That aside, I’m not going to lose because I’m not going to buy the company at the normal price,” he looked directly at Audrey, locking his gaze with him.” Audrey will put me on call, I will negotiate with Seth.”
Don nodded briefly, satisfied by the option.” Seth wouldn’t know what got him.” Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
“When it’s all settled, then you will tell him who I am. Let him know that the police will soon be knocking as well,” he informed.
“Alright?” Don requested. Audrey nodded quickly.” Alright.”
Grey hesitated for a moment, as he watched him. “What are you waiting for then?
Audrey hurried to the table and picked up his phone.” Hello Seth, this is Audrey,” he said to the receiver.
Grey regarded Audrey’s men for a moment, then moved closer to the one by his left. He observed him for a moment before he squeezed the paper into his hand.
The guy looked up but Grey shook his head slowly, to shut him up.
“Yes, let’s meet by tomorrow evening then, at the regular place,” Audrey sealed and hung up. He turned to look at Grey who was already watching him.” Done.” Grey smiled. “Good, we will meet later then,” Grey finished up and walked out of the room. The others followed him quickly. Don came with three extra cars to fit in the men. So, they all got into the car and followed Grey behind. Grey found a secluded place. He parked the car and got out of it. He was a little pissed and the expression on his face was evident.
The cars also copied his movement and everyone rushed out of the car.
Grey turned around to look at Don. “Tell the men to go back in, I need to have a chat with you and Richard,” his voice was deep and Don knew he was angry. It wasn’t the first time he would encounter his anger, so he already knew how it
was.
Yet, he signaled for the men to get back inside the car and they complied.
Grey turned to Richard at first. “Why did you say that? I told you to keep shut no matter what!” He snarled.
Richard shivered. “I’m sorry Boss, I didn’t mean to upset you,” he beseeched softly.
“I told him to,” Don interceded calmy.
Grey turned towards him slowly, as if he couldn’t believe his ears. He lurched at him quickly and punched him in the face. Though, he made it light so that it wouldn’t affect him too much.
“I’m not sorry, Boss. You are Hercules and I will protect you with my life,” he said defiantly, with respect. Grey regarded him for a moment and saw the loyalty in his eyes. Don was really telling the truth. So, he finally let him go. Instead, he punched the air angrily. “No one is supposed to know about me, Don! Not yet! How many times would I say that? I have people after me! I have spies among my men! How would I identify them?” He expressed it strongly.
“It doesn’t matter, Boss,” Don stepped forward.” As long as you have the closest men that you can trust, we will eventually be able to apprehend the spies. I and
Richard will serve you with our utmost heart,” he promised. “Yes,” Richard chimed in.” We will do anything for you. You just have to give us
the order and we will carry it out.”
Grey released a sigh. He knew he needed more men anyways if he truly wished to find the spy. He observed the two men for a moment, then moved closer. “This is the last warning, Don. This is the last warning as your Hercules. Without my permission, you are not supposed to announce my identity, is that alright?” He demanded thickly.
Don regarded him for a moment with a hard expression, then he slowly nodded his head. “I’m yours to command, Hercules.”
“Fine!” Grey heaved an exasperated sigh.” What did you tell the men?” Don smiled. “I told them you were closer to Hercules than we were.” Grey nodded slowly. “Nice.” “But I’m concerned about Audrey. I
mean he’s a notorious man. Are we sure he’s not going to betray us?” Richard wondered aloud. “Yes, you are right,” Grey affirmed.” He’s used to being the boss anyways. He wouldn’t want to take orders from anywhere. In fact, we can even say he might plan to sell me off to Giovanni,” he informed.
A light flashed through Don’s eyes.”Should we finish him off then?”
“No, we still need him for Seth,” Grey hinted. Don nodded once.” What should we do then?” Grey smiled. “I’ve prepared for it anyways. I found someone to help us run things.
They all raised skeptical brows at him.” What do you mean?” They chorused at once.
“I gave one of Audrey’s men a piece of paper. The solution is on that piece of paper,” he explained. “What did you write on the piece of paper? And why did you give it to one of Audrey’s men?” Don inquired. Grey’s smile broadened.
