The great news about the auction was that Hattie and Giovanni didn’t even know who he was, which meant that the spy hadn’t seen anything.
Though, he was concerned about finding out who Pablo was. He needed to do it quickly before the spy found out about his identity.
Grey made a mental list of people that knew about his identity to see if there was a spy among them.
It turned out that Charles wasn’t working against him, though he desperately wanted to see if he was really working with his father. Maybe he planned to take over his estate because he didn’t say anything. Anyways, Don and Richard were loyal, including Maria. That aside, it turned out that Audrey’s previous men were also loyal.
So, the spy was still far from reach.
“I’m sorry father,” Emma whispered. “I thought I could test him and see what he would do. Actually, the lady told me that he fell for it. She didn’t tell me that she had initially explained to him which meant he would have fallen into the trap if Nora had not explained it to him.”
“Seriously? That’s what you think?” Lucy repeated, a bit angry over it.
Emma nodded briefly. “I mean Grey doesn’t even look like the type of guy that wouldn’t hang out with girls behind their wife’s back.”
“Well, he doesn’t. That’s a fact,” Smith said suddenly, raising his head.” Did you hear what he did to Chris two days ago?”
That morning, as usual, Grey Fox left home very early and decided to eat out.
“What happened?” Emma was suddenly interested. Actually, it was the first time she was so interested in something that Smith was saying. Maybe it was because Smith was trying to divert the attention from her and she was grateful for it.
For Smith, he knew exactly what he was doing. If Avery was married to Chris, she wouldn’t have to disturb him with operating the company.
“He punched Chris twice on the face and drew blood. Meanwhile, Chris was suffering from some ailments, and the punches just kind of weakened him,” Smith explained.
“Smith, don’t stress it like that.” Avery corrected.
“Seriously?” Smith raised skeptical brows at her. “Till when will you continue to defend him? Till when he commits murder?”
“He’s right, Avery!” Emma affirmed.” That was why I wanted you two to divorce. He’s just so impatient and he’s even unemployed. He’s always leaving one job for another without getting paid. He’s really always not serious,” she acknowledged. “Yes, I think it’s high time you guys separate,” Smith added quickly. Emma nudged Benjamin slightly. Benjamin looked up and cleared his throat. “Yes, your mother is right.”
“Don’t tell me you did a family meeting over Grey in my absence?” Lucy boomed. “No, uncle. I will never do that,” Smith jibed. “I’m just talking based on what’s happening.” “You don’t have the right to tell her to divorce. This had to be between her and Grey,” Lucy announced.
“But dad_”Emma started but was cut off by Lucy
“I won’t hear any other thing from you, especially you Emma.” Lucy expressed thickly in a voice that left no room for another word.
“So, the shoot has progressed,” Maria announced just as Grey stepped inside the exquisite hall they were using for the photo shoot.
