Chapter 267
"What do we do with him?" Alex demanded.
Giovanni hesitated on his way out and looked back at Grey.
"He can't leave," Jane burst in immediately. "He saw me already. If we let him go, he would definitely tell the elders about me and they wouldn't let me off so easily," she complained.
Alex nodded briefly. "Yes, that's right. That aside, I find it hard to think of the reason why he was trying to move close to me when he was working with Hercules' men."
"Well, he obviously wanted to uncover your identity which he succeeded. He's very dangerous as Jane has said. So, kill him," Giovanni decided before he stepped out.
Alex looked at Grey for a moment before he followed Giovani. "Should we just kill him?"
"An accidental death. We have to make it look like he killed himself."
"What?" Alex raised skeptical brows.
Giovanni stopped to look at him. "Grey killed himself because he felt guilty about impersonating Hercules. He wasn’t threatened but when the news came out, he decided to end his life. But before that, we need to spread news that Grey has been the one impersonating Hercules."
"So, what type of death should we give him?"
"Anything, Alex. Think! That's why you are my successor," he whined, turned around and left.
Jane stepped out with the rest of the men, not after sending him a dirty stare, i
It was getting very dark now and Grey started to think of a way he could communicate with the rest. He might actually die if he doesn't. Though, his hand was already working its way behind him.
Even though it was taking forever, Grey knew he would be able to get off the ropes and save himself before they would stage his death.
Something dropped on the floor in the dark or maybe it was someone.
Grey stopped applying force and looked towards the direction from where the sound came from.
Tiana walked out of the dark. "Hercules," she started but Grey shushed her up.
"Don't! They are on the other side of the door," he whispered to her.
Tiana nodded briefly. "I’ve called Charles and he's on the way here with the men. I will cut the rope and escape you through the window," she explained.
"No," Grey shook his head briefly. "No, I can't leave now. I need to make them think I'm really dead."
"No," Tiana nodded briefly. "They are going to make you have an accident so that it would look like you killed yourself."
"Tell Charles to stick near, I'm going to get out of the car before it hits whatever so it would look like I really died," he explained.
Tiana hesitated for a moment before she slowly nodded. She stretched out a small knife. "You will need this then."
Grey took the knife and nodded briefly.
"Is there anything you want me to do?"
He hit against the door severely as the car moved faster towards the side of the bridge.
Grey used his knife to hit the door severely until it shattered. Then he pulled out so he could open the door from outside.
He grunted as he struggled harder. The glasses stabbed into him but that didn't stop him until he had succeeded in wrenching the door open, i
He rolled out just in time for the car to drive off the edge and hit the water underneath.
A car pulled to a stop beside him suddenly and Charles stretched out his head. "Get inside Grey!"
Grey nodded as the door opened for him. He struggled inside and Charles turned the car around.
"Are you alright, boss?" Tiana asked suddenly.
Grey looked up at her. "Tiana, how did you find me here?"
Tiana smiled. "Long story," she looked down at the blood on the chair. " we need to get you to the hospital."
Grey held his bleeding hand to suppress the blood from coming out. "I'm fine. Call me Jimmy and Maria. Giovann is definitely going to spread news about me being the one impersonating Hercules. We will need ours as well. We need a clarion call to our men."
"What?" Alfred raised skeptical brows.
Grey smiled softly. "It's time for Hercules to appear."
