Chapter 37: Fired from work
Grey went back to J.K company, Everyone was surprised that Grey was suddenly back after he had been fired by the manager. If Alfred makes Grey continue working at his company or makes him a manager, then everyone would know how close these two have become. People were curiously waiting for the outcome.
“Do you know what working in your company will do to me!” Grey questioned. He sat on the cushion in front of Alfred
“I’ve thought about it for a while as well but I can’t let an ordinary manager insult you. I want everyone to know you are at least not the lowest,” he indicated in a pained way.
* Why? Grey was shocked. “Why do you suddenly want me to work in my company? You have never mentioned my company to me. Why do so now?”
Alfred went silent again.” I just got some information. Giovanni just met with the main secretary of your company.”
Grey stared back at the suites.” You have a spy around Clarion?”
“Yes,” he admitted. “I’m trying to find who is giving us out. And I must say that Giovanni must be doing the exact thing. I don’t know but I’m feeling bad that your main secretary is seeing Giovanni.”
Grey thought for another moment, ‘Does she know about the Eminent Mafia group?”
* No, she doesn’t,”
Grey thought about it quickly. “I would rather work at my company than jeopardize everything. It’s not the time to let them know I’m so much acquainted with you. Not after I get the spy and everyone that conspired to have my father’s killed,” he explained strongly.
Alfred let out a sigh.” That’s fine then. But I’m still going to sack the manager,” he said stubbornly. For disrespecting you so much.”
Grey smiled sideways, pleased.” Yes, you should teach him a lesson,” he took a sip of the coffee that was brought inside by Jane.
Jane now respects Grey, though she wondered who Grey really was and also waited for the outcome of Grey’s meeting with Alfred to confirm it
“But,” Grey started again. “Do you think Giovanni is foolish to meet with my secretary during the day when he knew that you could be watching? It could be what he wanted,” he informed.
” Why do you think he met with Rose then? He wouldn’t do that unless he’s an acquaintance of his.”
Yes,” Grey stood and moved towards the window. It was the closing hour and Avery would drive in at any moment. “But he wouldn’t do that in broad daylight. He would rather meet her at night in one of the suites. Something is off somewhere, I know it,” he declared,
“He must be trying to lure us into something.” Alfred confirmed.
A car drove inside and Grey smiled when he saw that it was Avery. He turned to look at Alfred. “Perhaps he’s trying to make us think that Rose is really the spy. The main spy is still somewhere and I’m going to do all it takes to find out,” he explained with determination.” So yes, I will transfer to my company.”
The best way to get to the root of the matter was to move closer to the problem. Since no one knew him, he would try to mingle with a lot of people to draw out the truth. It could take months but Grey was optimistic
“I will arrange the transfer letter and make a declaration here that someone else will take the manager’s
Job
Grey nodded, pleased by Alfred’s decision.
When Grey walked into the lobby, the news of his sack letter had spread like wildfire. All the workers were happy that he was fired. Cindy was pleased with the turn of things. Even though the previous manager was sacked as well, she was glad that Alfred wasn’t taking his side.
Jane was disappointed and thought that Grey had just fallen out of favor with Alfred
Grey heard some whisperings around him as he walked out of the lobby. He met Cindy in the parking lot.
