Chapter 529: What happened to Avery?
Grey had to go back home with Jimmy and Mark. Though, he didn’t say a word to Mark or try to stop Jimmy from bringing Mark along.
Infact, he didn’t even create space for Jimmy to talk to him concerning the matter.
He got changed and walked out of the room again. He needed to hurry up and meet with the special members.
‘ Boss,’’ one of the men moved closer to him.
Grey regarded him for a moment. “Just take care of the men. I will be back very soon,” he assured and walked out of the house.
He entered the car and relaxed. He released a sigh of relief before he pulled out of the garage.
He arrived at the suites in a few minutes. He knew where the meeting was happening, so he went there directly.
There were three men standing guard outside the door. They bowed slightly on sighting him.
Grey walked inside. He hesitated slightly as he regarded the men for a moment.
“Why will the big Giovanni come to see the members so late in the night,” Grey said suddenly, drawing attention to him.
Everyone looked at him at the same time.
Grey chuckled briefly before he moved closer to them slowly. “It has been a while, Giovanni. It has been so long, like forever,” he looked at Giovanni. Their gaze locked and held for a moment.
Giovanni sighed. “I can see that you are not with your mask today.”
Grey shrugged briefly. “I see no reason to,” he moved closer and sat beside Giovanni. “Seriously.” He looked at special members and made a nod of the head. “I’m sorry for coming so late. I was caught up with work. I really apologise.”
“It’s ok. Who will be angry at the new King of the world?” Douglas laughed.
“Who would dare?”
They all laughed, except Giovanni who had a big smirk on his face.
“Did you send me the message, Grey?”
“Did I?” Grey huffed. ‘ And you came over even when you knew you weren’t invited? Did you really think you could convince the special members to work for you?”
Giovanni regarded Grey for a moment. “You seemed to have grown more wings, Grey. You seem to think you have everything in control but,” he laughed briefly. “I will come back and you might not like it when I do,” he stood up. “Get ready for me. The fight would be gruesome,” he muttered and walked out of the room.
“Did you really invite him?”
Grey nodded once. “I did it for something very important. I had one of my men in his custody and I had to get him out,” he explained.
“That was why he sent me here earlier,” Charles chimed in.
Grey released a sigh and looked at the special members. “Did Giovanni try to say something annoying?”
“Of course,” Lan said. “You know how he can be.”
Grey chuckled. ‘You know how he can be. He’s merely pained. Though, I know he will be planning more soon but I will be prepared for it. Should we just get onto the reason why we called this meeting in the first place?”
The men nodded briefly.
“I came with this box that holds everything you need to have as the new King of the world,” the ex King of the world explained and placed a box on the table. “I’m leaving tomorrow morning. So, we might never see for a while till further notice,” he explained.
Charles pulled the box closer to Grey. Grey opened it and stared down at the papers in it.
“It has a seal. You have the power to override other billionaire clubs. And those papers contain different hostels, clubs and restaurants all around the world that you can enter without being questioned,” he explained.
Grey saw a card in the box. He pulled it out and regarded it for a moment. It was actually a gold card that has the name, ‘The King of the world’ in bold letters.
“Your card. It’s yours now. So, you can change the password and use it for yourself. It holds a ten billion dollar in it,” he revealed. “It’s a gift as the new King of the world.”
Charles nodded once. “Actually good.”
“Alright,” Grey muttered and placed the card back inside the box.
“Also, there’s going to be another party in Italy and your members will be the one to arrange it. That aside, we have a variety of programs for you to attend. It has been listed in one of the papers there,” Douglas explained.
James nodded once. “Yes and you are going to get a secretary specially for this,” he revealed.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“A separate secretary?” Charles inquired.
James nodded once. “So, we’ve made a list of people of great potential. You only have to choose one of them and get back to me. I will do the rest.”
Grey nodded once and relaxed back. “Being a king of the world is really a great job,” he joked.
They all laughed.
“Well, I will be good with a secretary. I will contact you when I am ready to,” Grey assured. “So, is that all?”
They exchanged gaze and nodded almost the same time.
“It’s all done,” Douglas said.
“Then, let’s drink,” Grey muttered.
The door opened almost immediately and a waiter walked inside with varieties of expensive wines. She offloaded them and walked out of the room.
“So, when is the party coming up? The king of the world will be the one to decide,” James said suddenly.
Grey smiled. “I will get back to you concerning that as well but we should be looking towards next month.”
“Next month is fine,” Douglas muttered.
Grey’s phone rang suddenly. It was the doctor treating Avery. Grey’s heart made a sudden thud at this. He sat up and released an exasperated sigh.
He wondered why the doctor was calling. Has anything bad happened to Avery? He didn’t even want to think about it. Grey was going to run mad if anything happened.
