Chapter 53: borrowed

After breakfast, Avery and Lucy went to LX corporation, Emma and Benjamin also went out, not after informing Grey to do the dishes.

They had maids and he doesn’t know why he had to go through the stress. He did it anyway

His phone rang suddenly as he stepped inside the living room. The maids walked past the phone but didn’t even bother helping him.

They walked past him and didn’t greet him but he shuddered it off.

It was Alfred that was calling. He picked it up immediately.

“Hi, Alfred,” he smiled and whirled around to go back to the bedroom.

“Good morning, Hercules. How are you feeling today?”

“Finę. I told you I would be better, didn’t l?” He laughed.

He barely took two steps forward when the doorbell sounded. He stopped in his tracks and turned around, towards the door again.

“I’m glad you are getting better. You should rest very well. Nothing must happen to you,” he declared.

Grey nodded.” I will be fine.”

“Alright but I’m going to tell the elders this we will take action soon. What if Giovanni knows about you? How come you got attacked the day you visited your father’s estate? He must have been spying on Aphrodite,” he vented out his frustration

Grey sighed.” Calm down. You don’t need to tell the elders anything because this doesn’t concern them And it’s not Giovanni.”

Alfred went silent for a minute.” Then, who is it? Who dared lay his hands on you!”
