Chapter 16: Twists
Grey chuckled. He couldn‘t just control it. The ladies were talking about him and they didn‘t even know. So hilarious!
The ladies turned towards him like he was a joker. “Why did you laugh?”
“I didn‘t laugh, I chuckled,” Grey corrected with sarcasm.
The first lady gave him a dirty stare. “Whatever! All I want to know is why you did that thing you just did. What is so funny in what we are discussing?”
Grey scoffed.” You are discussing seducing someone when you should be discussing prospering. That‘s gold–digging!”
The lady placed her hands over her waist.” Hey, cut it! We are discussing one of your fellow mates. Isn‘t Grey Fox a man like you? He can afford what you can‘t. He can buy your kind of man a hundredfold.”
Grey laughed again.” No, he can‘t,” he shook his head slightly. Just as he was about to tell them who he was, a car pulled up in the parking space and a man in Gucci clothes got down. “It‘s Steve, the manager!” The first lady squealed and maneuvered around the desk to meet the man midway. Grey looked over at the man and let him get closer.
“Has Grey Fox been here?” He asked immediately as he flipped through his phone in a business–like way. “No, he_” the woman started but Grey cut him off. “He‘s here already. I‘ve been waiting for you.”
Steve looked up at him, merely glancing over his choice of clothes. He didn‘t look surprised. It was like Gregory had hinted at what to expect of him. “You are Grey Fox?” The lady questioned, shocked.
Grey nodded briefly.” And I would like to leave Here‘s as soon as possible.”
“Please, follow me,” Steve invited, dipped his phone into his pocket, and started walking away. The ladies couldn‘t leave the spot as they stared unbelievably at Grey. Grey smiled again, very pleased at himself. They walked through the neatly arranged cars and stopped before a path. Someone drove out a car from the garage. It was a Rolls–Royce Boat Tail.
The inside of the Rolls–Royce Boat Tail just screams opulence, the owner will have every reason to drive it in alfresco mode to show off the car‘s grandiosity. The color scheme matches the exterior two–tone paintwork with wood and metallic finishes here and there. The leather used to upholster the interior is blemish–free and is sourced from the hides of ‘stress free Alpine cows in the cold Bavaria region (Germany). Front seats have a darker blue while rear seats have a lighter shade of blue stitched with more intense blue. The wood finishes in the lower cabin, deck, and floor look like the hull of a ship, and the whole floor structure has been designed to be a resonance chamber for the car‘s 15–speaker system.
The Boat Tail has a 6.75–liter twin–turbo V12 engine capable of 563 horsepower. And only three of them have been made. Gregory got this at the auction. “I will go prepare the documents while you check out your car,” Steve said and walked away
“Hello there!” A sweet tiny voice said behind Grey. He turned around to look at Caramel.
Actually, Caramel was one of Avery‘s friends that he saw at the party. Even though they didn‘t talk since she was rich and obviously distancing herself, she couldn‘t stop staring at him till the party was done. Caramel walked closer with a curious smile. “What is this?” She stared down at the car for a moment, giving it deep scrutiny. Then she looked up at him. “Who the fuck are you?” “What do you want?”
She smiled again, this time so brightly. “A meal. Why don‘t you treat me to a meal?” Grey opened his mouth to decline but she beat him to it. “I‘m your wife‘s friend, I don‘t think you should reject me.”
Grey sighed, a bit frustrated, and watched Caramel move to the other side of the car. She opened the door of his car and gasped.
Steve came out just at the right time and gave him the documents.
He took the documents and got inside the driver‘s seat. Caramel was very wealthy. so, he decided to take her to one of Alfred‘s restaurants, “Have you seen the movie ‘not all that glitters is gold?” Caramel Boomer suddenly. Grey pulled up in front of Alfred‘s restaurant since it was closer. “No, but be what‘s it all about?” He asked innocently.
Caramel sighed and looked away.
His phone rang the moment he got out of the car. It was Alfred‘s calling. He picked it up immediately.
“Hi Alfred,” he moved away from the car so that Caramel wouldn‘t hear his conversation.
“I just saw that you came down from the car. Are you here to see me?”
