Chapter 369: Turn back
Wait, it was all so confusing to him. Grey has founded a new company and he was in fact competing with him.
It was at that moment that Seth realised that Grey and Hercules were two different personalities. Hercules was dead and Grey was competing with Seth. It all made sense to him.
Also, if they were of the same person, the deal would have been off. The order would have been awarded to Grey and there wouldn't even be anything as Maria had mentioned.
Seth couldn't wait to tell Smith about the news. Thank goddess, the three have an issue to fix initially. It would make him really happy if they beat Grey in business.
Smith arrived in Russia in no time but it all felt weird. Arnold and David’s men were always at some point around the place but suddenly, they weren't.
Smith had to stop and searched around for Arnold's men. It might really be difficult if he doesn't do that because he wouldn't be able to know where Arnold really was.
After several searches, he couldn't find them or maybe they left when they saw him. He couldn't really understand. Or why would Arnold be hiding from him?
He lodged into a room at a popular hotel. He still had some money on him which he got in Russia before moving over to Jacksonville.
A soft knock sounded on his door. "Hotel services,” the voice reached out.
Smith sighed and got up. He walked to the door and opened it.
Ì brought what you ordered but you can come over to our bar,” the attendant supplied.
Smith nodded once and that was when he remembered that there was a particular bar in town that he and Arnold loved to go to when he was still in Russia. There was eighty percent certain that he would definitely show up that evening.
Smith took the tray from the attendant. "Thank you so much," he closed the door and placed the tray safely on the table. He entered the bathroom for a quick shower and got changed into black trousers and a white t-shirt.
He didn’t have dinner as he rushed towards the popular bar in town.
Music was blaring out from every corner of the bar as he walked inside. His gaze searched around quickly for a trace of Arnold’s men.
He barely walked a few feets when he saw one of them in a corner. His gaze searched even further until it rested on a few men standing around Arnold. Arnold was indeed in Russia.
Smith walked closer. Just when he was a few steps away, two men moved forward, obstructing him from moving forward.
"Why are you doing this? Don’t you know me? I'm Smith. I'm your boss’ friend and I demand to see him immediately!" He stressed in a thick voice.
The men didn't bulge and they were bigger than Smith. So, he couldn't even push them away.
Smith looked up at them. "Don’t you recognize me? I used to dine with your boss. We even went to Jacksonville together. Don't you remember me again?" He explained.
The men ignored him and wouldn't even bulge.
Smith has never felt so frustrated in his entire life. He looked over at Arnold, having discussions with David. There were a lot of ladies around as well as wines and champagnes on the table in front of them. Smith begged silently for him to look in his direction.
"You have to leave," one of the men said suddenly, a dark frown on his face but Smith was being reluctant.
