Chapter 114: Half success "You are in a serious mess and you are clapping. These men have seen your face. How would you do it?” Greyasked, worriedly.
James sighed and his expression morphed into a dark frown.
“I know.
I guess I'm going to stay hidden for a while," he sighed.
"Thanks for saving me anyways." Grey regarded him for a moment.” Is something wrong? Why are these men after you anyways? Did yousupport Hercules in Atomic Liquors again?" He teased.
James burst out into laughter that lasted for a minute.
" That was funny but no! Damn! I was drunk that day,” he protested.
Grey shrugged slightly." You could be drunk now." James shook his head amidst another round of laughter.
“No! Not that actually,” he became sober again.
"I'm investigating." Grey raised skeptical brows." Investigating? Are you a police officer?” t James shook his head quickly.” I’m not.
I was just looking for someone and I thought she was here.
But that doesn't even look to be the case," he said dejectedly.
Grey regarded it for a moment.
"What is this all about? Do you want to talk about it?” James looked up at him.
“My friend is missing.
I tried to check if she was part of the escorts.” Grey raised skeptical brows at him.” Escorts? Do they run an escortin here? At Atomic Liquors?" James nodded once.
"It's headed by Pablo." The puzzle was suddenly coming together.
The escorts were the reason why Atomic Liquors was becoming popular.
“But unfortunately, she’s not there,” James sighed.
“I thought she would, you know.
She told me that Pablo had once asked her out but she refused blatantly.
Pablo doesn't take no for an answer, instead, he would rather force whoever that is,” he explained.
Grey blinked once." Who is this Pablo?" "A rich, rude guy.
I bet he’s worse than Giovanni.”
Grey sighed.
“Maybe your friend left or something.
Perhaps, she went away with her lover or something.
Anything could have happened.”
James sighed.” You are right.
I mean I might be on a loose end.
Thanks once again, I will keep that in mind and I promise to help you out however that Ican," he promised.
Grey smiled.
” You should be careful.
These men will still be out for you." James reciprocated his smile.
" Thanks, I will keep it in mind." Just as he turned to leave, Grey called out to him suddenly.
He turned around to look at him.
"What is the name of this escort? Does it have a specific name for it?” “Pablo, just Pablo female escorts.” Grey smiled again.” Bye,” he whispered andwatched James walk down the street before he turned to walk back to Atomic Liquors.
He pulled off the nose mask and kept it in his pocket before he walked inside.
Music was blaring from every corner of the room.
And yes, there were a lot of people around.
Grey's gaze searched around for Don and found him chatting happily with a man in Black attire.
He moved to get champagne and find a seat close to Don.
The room was very occupied and it wasn't easy to notice anyone unless perhaps they had an eye for someone specifically.
However, even though Grey hasn't met Giovanni and hasn't seen him personally, his gaze searched around as if to see him.
He wouldn’t even recognize him anyways.
His phone beeped suddenly.
