Chapter 186: Fix it
Grey got to the gym alone that morning as Richard called in sick.
He has been hitting the gym for three days now with no information from Pablo but he didn’t want to
relent especially when the lives of his men were in danger. Grey knew they were still alive due to what
Alex had told him. Actually, he had a lot to do that morning. He needed to make a voice message that
shows he was in support of Victoria Skincare as the Hercules. So, Maria was coming to Beatrice’s
house.
Then after that, he would tell Linda to proceed with letting the world know that Hercules was the second
brand ambassador.
“Grey,” Alex smiled brightly at him.
Grey reciprocated it. “Good morning to you.”
Alex regarded him for a moment. “You are actually looking more fit than I expected, maybe it’s because
of your body structure. You are naturally gifted with broad shoulders,” he complimented.
Grey sent him a smile.” It’s all due to your hard work.”
Alex nodded briefly. “I’m having a little party at my house in three days, would you be able to make it?”
Grey nodded quickly.” Why not? I will never miss it.” Alex laughed at this. “Well, I have good news for
you,” his face went straight and he moved his mouth closer to Grey’s ear. “Pablo wants to meet you
tonight.”
The news came as a shock to Grey.” Really?”

Alex pulled back and nodded. “Come at the same time you did the other time.”
“Alright. I will leave now so that I don’t get late for work,” Grey informed him and they both shook hands
before Grey walked out.
Grey’s head was busy calculating how their plan would work. The moment he got inside the car, he
placed a call to Gregory. He picked it up after the second ring. “Good morning, Hercules.” “It’s indeed a
great morning. I’m meeting Pablo tonight,” he announced.
” What!” It came as a shock to Gregory. “But that’s too fast to make a plan?” Grey smiled and pulled
into the street. “Well, we don’t need excess planning. We’ve already discussed how we want it to be.
You guys only need to carry it out.” Gregory went silent for a moment. “Can you make use of Luciano’s
men for those that would attack Atomic Liquors? Your men should be the ones that would prepare to
visit Giovanni’s home. You know we can’t trust your men just yet.” He suggested.
“Yes, you are right. I will inform others and do as you’ve suggested.”
” Fine but, can you include Don? Tell him not to take any of his men.” He ordered.
“Alright, I will give you feedback when the plan is settled.”
Grey hesitated, “keep an eye on your men, and you would be able to apprehend the spy today. I will be
waiting for the results,” Grey responded and the line went off.
Grey pulled off and looked up to see Maria smiling at him, A smile escaped his face as he approached
her.
“Have you been waiting for so long?”
Maria shook her head briefly. “Just for thirty minutes.”
Grey smiled, and entered the house, while Maria followed quickly. “I could have told your assistant to
follow me but I didn’t want to let her know you are,” she pulled to a sudden stop when Grey turned to
look at her.
The hard look Grey gave her almost made her stop breathing.
“The main reason why you are still living despite knowing who I am is because of your loyalty. The
moment that is off, you go as well. Understood?”
Maria nodded quickly.” I will never betray you, Hercules,” she stated boldly.” I just want you to know you
can call me over if you need anything. There’s always a way to go about everything,” she explained.
Grey smiled. ” I knew that I made a nice decision to make you my secretary. Give me a few minutes to
get dressed. And get everything ready.” He ordered.
Maria nodded again, a smile playing on her face. She was just so glad that she was directly serving
Hercules. “I will do that.”
Grey walked upstairs and knocked gently on Beatrice’s door. “Beatrice?” “Grey,” Beatrice boomed from
inside. “I’m getting ready for work. I will be out soon.” “No problem, take your time. I have someone
here from the office. She came too early and I don’t think she had breakfast.”
“Oh, sure. I get that!”
Grey entered his room for a shower.
What would he do after discovering Pablo’s real identity? He hadn’t really thought about it. But well,
what would happen next would be confirming his identity as the son of Giovanni.
He would be able to think of the next thing by then. He got dressed in a black tuxedo. He decided to
keep it cool that day. He did his tie and grabbed his briefcase before he walked out of the room.
“Thank you so much for the meal,” Maria appreciated and turned to look at Grey,

walked to the kitchen,
Maria bowed slightly for Grey, ” Thank you, sir.”
Grey waved it off. “Let’s start.”
Maria rushed forward and picked a note, She handed it over to Grey. “Here’s what you should
say. I’ve prepared other things for you to write.” Grey took it and stared down at the words. “I’m adding
a bit of mine,” he informed her and looked up. “Are you using the voice changer?” Maria nodded briefly.
“I will clear any traces back to you. Though, the handwriting would be difficult to do, unless you want
someone else to write for you.”
Grey shook his head briefly.” That can remain the same. Did you bring my stamp? Because I’m
definitely going to use a different signature.” Maria laughed. “I did. I came with everything, you don’t
have to worry about anything,” she assured.” So, what do you want to add? I could decide how it would
go.”
Grey regarded her for a moment. “My mother’s name is Victoria.”
Realization dawned on Maria. “You named the company after your mother’s name?”
Grey nodded briefly. “Well, I’m just going to say I felt attracted by the name, then I brought the cream
and realized it had the exact scent as her. And, they did it great. It’s feasible enough, isn’t it?”
Maria nodded briefly.” I will fix it.”
Grey looked up and realized that Beatrice was looking at him, with admiration on her face and she was
near tears.
If at all he was going to let Hattie go, for what they did to her mother. He wouldn’t let them go for what
they did to Beatrice’s son.
