Chapter 544: Call back! Grey didn't bother going to Avery's room because he knew that Avery's parents would be there.
So, he walked towards the doctor's office instead.
He placed a call to Maria. She picked it up immediately.
"Hello, boss. Good morning sir." "Good morning, Maria. I have an assignment for you. Alex has escaped.
You have to write about him and publish it immediately. I want you to make a huge publication and announcement on our website. Can you handle this as quickly as possible?" "Yes, boss. I will. I will start immediately," Maria assured.
The moment the door opened, Grey couldn't believe who he was looking out for. o Emma and Benjamin walked out of the office, with eyes wide with shock at the sight of Grey.
"Is he a ghost? I thought he died," Emma muttered.
"Obviously, we can't all be seeing ghosts," Benjamin responded.
Grey bowed slightly. "Good morning ma and sir." "So, you are alive?" Emma questioned again.
"Or wait a minute__," Benjamin hesitated briefly as he thought about it.
"It's you?" Grey's heart made a sudden thud.
Could Avery have told them she got hurt because of him? Emma and | Benjamin would eat him alive. —— = They would never forgive him at all.
Maybe they would be his enemy forever.
""Have you been the one sponsoring Avery's treatment? Is that why you are in the hospital?" Benjamin bombarded.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGrey released a relieved sigh. "I_," he started but was interrupted when Emma holds his hand suddenly.
His eyes went wide with shock. He couldn't believe that Emma could hold his hand. She has always been hostile towards him. In fact, she had always avoided being close to him, talkless of holding him like she was currently doing.
"You don't need to say more," Emma said quickly. "You don't need to say more. Thank you so very much, Grey.
Thank you," she sobbed quietly.
"Thank you." "Yes, thank you so much," Benjamin chimed in. "We really appreciate {a Grey bowed slightly. "I'm so sorry about what happened to Avery." Emma shook her head briefly. "It's ok.
Will you be available later today?" Grey raised confused brows at her.
""Can you come over later?" Grey looked at Benjamin as if trying to confirm if he should reply to Emma or not.
Benjamin nodded briefly, a slight smile
on his face.
Grey released a sigh. "I won't be around tonight but I will be available tomorrow." "Nice," Emma said quickly. She was still holding his hand and it felt weird.
"Tomorrow is the best time actually since Avery will be taking off her veil tomorrow. We will all know about the success of the surgery," she explained.
Grey nodded once. "Alright ma, I will be around." Emma smiled softly. "Good, I will be expecting you." Grey bowed slightly and walked inside the office. He hesitated at the door and thought about what just happened.
"Mr. Grey," the doctor called with a
smile on his face. "Good morning." Grey disregarded the thought and moved forward. He had a smile on his face as he pulled the chair back briefly and sat.
"I can see that the surgery was successful to some extent." The doctor nodded once. "It was. We will take the bandage off her eyes tomorrow. Then, we can see what we have done if it was a success or not." Grey nodded once. "Thank you. I will be around by tomorrow. I hope it's a success." "It will all get better," the doctor assured.
Grey nodded once. "Are they more bills to clear?"
Samuel felt pain all over his body and | his mouth tasted of blood. " The police had tortured him but he had refused to say a word. He got a report that he would be rescued if he doesn't say a word.
Which was what he has been doing.
"Are you not going to say a word?" One of the police yelled at him.
"He's being stubborn but that is definitely going to be the end of him!" The other police muttered in anger.
Samuel grinned. "I just told you the truth. What else do you want me to tell you?" One is the men grabbed Samuel's neck
suddenly and started squeezing him.
Samuel struggled to breathe and soon started choking.
The door opened suddenly and police walked inside. "We've released an order from the captain. You are to release him." € The police looked at each other.
The man squeezing Samuel's neck let go suddenly and stepped back.
Samuel laughed.
"What the fuck?" Giovanni couldn't believe what he was hearing. He regarded the police for a moment.
"How can that be? Who published such
content about him?" "t's Protos Pubblicita. It's Hercules," one of the men confessed. pe Giovanni looked away for a moment as hot anger surged through him. He clenched his fist beside him in anger.
Grey was trying to ruin everything and he was going to succeed if he doesn't do anything.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut Giovanni couldn't think of what he was supposed to do at that moment.
He couldn't even think of it at that moment. Everything felt very confusing to him, especially with the fact that Alex was currently missing.
"Well, what we have to do at this
moment is to find Alex. The others would come by time," he muttered and looked at one of his men. "Set a.
meeting with the elders tonight." "Alright boss," the man responded.
Giovanni looked at the police. "Is the search warrant available?" "Yes, boss. We came with it." The sergeant's phone rang suddenly.
He picked it up and stepped away.
"So, let's move," Giovanni muttered and walked towards the car, with his men.
"Boss," the sergeant said suddenly, stopping Giovanni and the others in their track. He moved closer to Giovanni. "We are sorry boss but we can't go anywhere. We have been called
to withdraw." Giovanni regarded him for a moment.
"Call to withdraw? And why is that so? I spoke with the head of police this morning and everything went well.
Why are you suddenly withdrawing?" "It's an order from above sir." Just as Giovanni opened his mouth to talk, his phone rang. It was the head of the police.
He stepped aside and picked up the call. "Hello, what is all this about? Why are your men withdrawing?" "There was a hesitation. "We don't have jurisdiction over the case again.
The FBI has taken over. They now preside over the case," he revealed.
Giovanni was taken aback. "What the
heck happened?" '[ can't say sir but we have to 3 withdraw immediately. We can't go against the authority of the FBI. Even if you want to make use of the police, it would have to be in secret because we've lost the power in this." Giovanni's face fell. What the fuck!
