Chapter 33: A spark at work
As he had thought, breakfast was done when he finally walked out
“Seriously? You should hurry up then.” Emma seemed so happy about the change She was optimistic
that Lucy would change his mind soon.
iş David driving or will you like me to drive?” Avery asked She was happy as well and Grey couldn’t
help but notice that smiling made her look more attractive
We are going in our separate cars. You will have to return to your company after the contract has been
finalized,’ Lucy finalized, stood up, and walked out
Avery followed quickly
“Good morning in-laws,” Grey greeted with respect
“Good morning.” Benjamin replied but Emma hissed and walked away
Grey walked out nevertheless. Some of the maids were walking in when he came out They walked past
him without greelings.
One of the maids stopped in front of the door. ‘Look at him in a suit that Avery got for him. He’s such a
disgrace.”
That’s enough,” one shut her up. You shouldn’t abuse Avery’s husband”
The maids laughed
* Is there really a difference between him and us? Does he earn more than we do? I bet we earn
more.” one of them teased before they walked inside.
Grey heard thern but they were the least of his worries at that moment
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGrey got to work very late because he had to eat at the cafeteria. When he walked inside, Jane was
the first person he saw.
“Good morning. Mr. Grey,’ she tried to smile.
Grey smiled at her. “Good morning.” and he entered his office, knowing fully well that he was going to
spark rumors
His phone rang suddenly and it was Aphrodite. He picked it up immediately
“Hello, Novia,”
“Hi, Grey Will you be avawable by four? I could send someone to pick you up, then return you to the
company when we are done,” she suggested
Grey thought about it for a moment. “This is cool. Let’s do it that way.”
Grey spent the next three hours sorting files and receiving unendung calls. Within hours, it was
suddenly Mme for lunch.
There was a special cafeteria for Jk company that sold all kinds of meals ranging from the lowest lo the
highest
Grey walked inside the lunchroom and it looked as though the whole eyes turned towards tum He
ignored thern and walked to get hamburgers and fries
This is the man that came to work lale loday? Do you know he’s on office assislant?” A lady laughed
and rovna trhund him in the line
Grey looked back at her for a moment and caught her laughing
‘I know that Jane didn’t tell Mr. Alfred about it or he would have been fired already,’ the lady continued
as Grey went to an space, blocking his ears off the insults,
Though, it looked as though the workers planned it together
“I don’t believe I came late to work and Jane threatened 10 have me fired Even the manager was so
angry but Grey came late and Jane wasn’t talking about it?” A guy said, a few seals away
‘I don’t think the manager knew about it Though, he should be aware of it now He will definitely do
something by tomorrow,” another guy explained
Seriously? You are an office assistant here?” A familiar voice said above Grey He looked up at Cindy
He didn’t feel surprised because he knew that Cindy had already been employed He did see her when
she came for an interview
“How the fuck did you afford such a sumptuous meal at the reunion party if you work as an office
assistant? She sat in front of Grey and ate slowly
Grey didn’t look at her ‘I was going to ask you why you are working here when you told us at the
reunion that you would be traveling
Cindy went stuff for a moment and her mouth made a wry line ol error “I’m anyways better off than you
Grey scoffed and took more bites from the Hamburger, ‘The last time I checked, what you did was
called a lie.”
*Are you going to use the opportunity to abuse me?” She sounded upset already People are talking
about you in this place and I’m the only one who is bold enough 10 eat with you but this is what you will
do?”
Grey ignored her and continued to eat.
I’m going to deal with you, Greyl” She swore, huffed, took her lunch, and walked away
Grey went into the office for the late jobs that he left behind Fortunately for him, no canis came in
It was suddenly time to get off work Though Aphrodite didn’t call him but he knew that someone would
really come for him by the exact time and he doesn’t like keeping anyone waiting
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Hey! Come closer” Someone clapped as Grey stepped into the lobby It was almost empty except for a
few workers who were bundled together, gossiping
“Do you know who Grey really is?” Cindy smiled.” He used to be a delivery man” she laughed *
Seriously? Was he a pauper?”
Cindy nodded slowly.” He was very poor and even had to beg money from his males when we were in
college.”
Grey was pulled to a stop by Cindy’s words Her words reminded him of so many things about his past
There were days when he couldn’t eat because he had to pay his tuition fee His years at college were
the hardest moments of his life
Grey left the orphanage three years after he was found by the kind man A tough decision that led him
to where he was at that moment
OMG! I didnt know he was that poorl” One of the ladies grimaced as they pulled away as the gist was
Over
Cindy was looking at him row, with a cold but satisfied grin.
Grey’s phone beeped suddenly. A Rolls Royce was waiting outside for him, from Aphrodite. Grey
moved towards the door.
“Hey, I said I would deal with you. Wait for it Grey, I will really do,” she swore.
Grey ignored her and walked outside. Cindy followed quickly so that she would continue speaking to
him.
Meanwhile, as Grey stepped outside, a man was suddenly by the car door and holding the door open
for him.
“Mr. Grey, can we leave?” The man inquired.
Cindy pulled to a stop, confused. The car was a very expensive one and it was even more surprising
that someone was holding the door open for him.
Who the fuck was Grey exactly?
