Chapter 44: meeting the last Elder
“Sir, this man is Grey and the most useless man in life. He used to work as a delivery man and he was worth nothing.’ Seth explained
Luciano groaned, apparently not pleased with his explanation. He was still looking at Grey, though with curious eyes thal Grey wasn’t familiar with
“Did you say your name is Grey Fox?” He repeated
Grey nodded briefly ” I’m supposed to meet someone here and she’s on her way here,” he tried his best to be polite
Mr Luciano.’ Seth interrupted before Luciano would say anything else “You shouldn’t be speaking with someone like this. He’s not worth your struggles The security men can explain what he did anyways.”
Luciano turned to look at Seth “Sorry, who are you?* There were raised brows at hun
Seth smiled “I’m Seth I just rented the whole space for the cinema and”
“You can’t do that someone else already rented it. Luciano cut in quickly
Seth’s expression was a vivid description of horror as he watched Luciano “I’m willing to pay twice the price And if you aren’t busy. I would like for us to discuss something about business”
Luciano turned towards Grey. ignoring Seth’s remark which felt like a stab in his neck ‘is Novia who you are waiting for?”
Grey eyes went wide with shock Lots of questions went through his mind quickly Novia was the name that only Grey could call Aphrodite And unless this man really knew her, he wouldn’t be referring to her in such a way
“Novia?” Nora asked, skeptical
Well, it looked like Aphrodite was the name everyone knew Novia as it was just as whal Hercules was to Grey
Grey nodded slowly “She said I could wait here and she’s on her way,” he added quickly
Luciano’s lips seemed to curve into a smile but soon closed up again for a mouth that wasn’t used to laughing, it was the least he could do
“If you don’t mind, you could wait for her in the hall We could prepare a movie in advance before she arrives,” Luciano explained to Grey softly. The harsh tone disappeared and it looked like Luciano was trying to impress Grey.
“Wait, it looks like you are missing something.” Seth indicated, confused. This man is a delivery man. Ok. he got employed recently but he has been sacked.
Luciano looked over at Seth ‘What did you say your name was the other time?
Seth smiled. I’m Seth,’ and he stretched out his hand for a handshake
Luciano stared down at his hand for a moment, then up to his face. “Will you keep shut or do you want my men to walk you out of this place? He responded,
Seth swallowed harder, unable to believe what was happening.
