Chapter 384: Surprise

Grey got dressed in Dormeiul Vanquish li Suit and regarded himself in the mirror. He smiled at who was staring back at him in the mirror.

His phone rang suddenly and he moved away to grab it. It was Aphrodite but it stopped ringing before he could pick it up.

He was thinking of calling her back when a loud knock sounded on his door.

Grey turned towards the door with raised brows and angry features. Who would be knocking at his door at that moment?

"Are you going to open this door or should I burst it out!" A deep familiar voice said suddenly.

Before Grey could react, the door opened and Charles stick his head inside with a smile.

Grey smiled. "Charles!"

"What! Were you expecting someone else?" Charles joked and stepped inside.

Grey ignored his remark and moved forward to hug him. Charles was in Brioni Vanquish li Suit, a suit that looked as though it was tailored for him.

"I've missed you so much, man!"Grey hit his back slightly. Charles laughed. "Same here," he pulled back and looked at Grey with twinkling eyes. "What are you doing?"

Grey gave him skeptical brows. "What do you mean?"

"I thought you were ready for the auction already."

"Auction?" Grey was confused a bit. "You know about it?"

"Sure, why do you think I'm here and in this wonderful suit," he looked down at his suit. "Don't you think I look more handsome than you when I'm in this suit?" He teased.

Grey laughed. "Maybe or maybe not. I will always be the most handsome, right from childhood!" He teased back.

Charles laughed. "Yes, I heard about the auction two weeks ago. I knew you might be interested. I told Alfred about you and he promised to let you know and even get your invite," he explained.

"But what about your invite? Alfred only gave me two," he demanded but didn't wait for Charles to answer before he spoke again. "Though, I planned on entering with a fake one. Maybe we can find one for you as well," he wondered aloud.
