Chapter 188: A trap for Pablo Grey waited patiently for Gregory’s call. It was late already and he just
got back from the gym. He didn’t see Alex but he knew that the spy must have informed him of how
things were going to be. Maybe that was why he was absent because he needed to sort out some
things with Giovanni. All the same, Grey was going to see the face behind the mask that night. Just as
Grey pulled off into one of the parking spaces, his phone rang. It was Gregory. “Hi, how are things?”
“Good news,” Gregory made a wheezy laugh. “We caught the spy on his way back. We let him deliver
the wrong message before we got him. You can decide his judgment later but we are all set. We will
move at your order.” “One of Pablo’s men would take my phone the moment I entered. There’s no way
I would be able to contact you,” he informed.
“So, what do you suggest that we do?”
Grey thought for a moment. “Give me twenty minutes. Storm the whole place in twenty minutes. The
basement should be where my men are. You just use the opportunity to get them
out.”
Gregory sighed.” We could be late. What if we get there and Pablo has already left?”
Grey smiled. “I will preserve the time if I have to. Just come directly to the mini club because that’s
where I would be. I will handle the rest,” he assured. “Alright, we will go according to plan,” he finished
up and the line went off. He placed a call to Beatrice and she picked it up immediately. “Hi, Grey.”

prepare dinner.” He informed her.
“Alright, I understand. Just stay safe, ok?” Grey nodded briefly.” Sure, I will talk to you later,” he finished
and the line went off.
Grey got out of the car and entered the club. It was seething with people as usual. There were a lot
more people than normal. He found a spot to be while he awaited Pablo like he did the other day.
It didn’t take up to ten minutes when he felt a tab on his shoulder. He looked up at a lady which was
very much different from the one that took him the other day,
“Follow me,” she whispered and started walking away. Grey followed behind quickly, his eyes darted at
his wristwatch. He had spent thirteen minutes out of the time he had allocated to Gregory.
They walked for three minutes before they came to their destination. Grey pulled out his
phone and stretched it out as usual before he moved into the room. Pablo was sitting and probably
waiting for him. The mask was still on his face as if he wouldn’t remove it forever.
“Grey,” his voice sounded familiar for a second. “Welcome, I’ve been expecting you,” there was
excitement in his voice.
Grey took a short bow.” I’ve been waiting for days for today. I thought you wouldn’t want to see me
again,” he was sincere. There was silence at the other end and Grey couldn’t guess his expression. He
sat well and used the opportunity to dart at his wristwatch. He has three minutes left. “Am I seeing the
man behind the mask today?” Grey inquired. Pablo laughed. “You will, soon. I will send Alex to you
when the time is right. “Alex told me what you want and I’ve thought about it. And I’ve decided to give
you a chance in this business world,” he revealed.
Grey smiled softly and realized that it was time for Gregory to start the attack. He nodded briefly. “How
should I start?”
“Boss!” Someone yelled from behind and a man rushed inside. He moved closer to Pablo and
whispered into his ears.
Pablo got up. “What! I thought they were going to my father’s house!” Grey looked up quickly, the
words sinking in quickly. Realization hit in quickly. Alex just referred to Giovanni as his father.
He didn’t expect everything to be so easy. “You need to leave now. We have little men to guard you and
we can’t risk revealing your identity,” the man stated urgently. Grey stood up immediately.” Wait! What!
What’s happening? I’m starting to be scared!” He feigned a shudder and acted as if he was really
scared.
Pablo went quiet for a moment in a thoughtful manner, then he looked at Grey. “Are you skilled in
martial arts?”
Grey shook his head briefly. “I am not. Is something happening? Why is no one saying anything?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPablo released a sigh.” Follow me, now!” He ordered and walked out of the room.
Grey hurried after him quickly, and some men followed behind. They walked through the hallway for
some minutes until they reached the door. Pablo pulled to a stop suddenly, his hand on the knob. Grey
looked back and realized there was no one coming their way. “We have to leave this place now before
they come after us.”
” Yes, boss. He’s right. You have to leave,” one of the men chimed in.
Pablo hesitated.” No one has seen my face, so there’s no way they would know it’s me. I have to
change my attire.” He turned to look at one of the men. ” Get me clothes to change into
now,” he ordered and one of the men rushed away.
“You,” he gestured towards a man.”Tell the men to secure the basement.”
The man bowed slightly and hurried away. “Grey,” Pablo called softly. “I’m going to let you see my face
today. Consider today as your lucky day.” He announced. Grey nodded briefly.” What do you want me
to do?”
Pablo went mute again, his gaze watching Grey. Then, he slowly raised his hands towards the mask,
pulling it over very gently.
Grey raised a brow and waited. And well, he was going to enjoy the view.
The moment the mask went off, Grey’s eyes went wide with shock.
“What!” He yelled. “You are Pablo?”
