Chapter 19: The Code Grey got down from the car with a sigh. He had decided to push the thoughts to

the back of his mind.

The security was complaining when Grey got down from the car but he decided to turn a deaf ear tohis

complaint, and instead walked into the house He collapsed on the chair, tired.

Then, he remembered that he didn't have dinner and he was starving already.

A maid walked out suddenly with a tray of whatever.

She moved to the dining, placed the tray on the table, and turned to Grey.

“I made spaghetti Bolognese for you,” she announced.

Grey looked up, shocked for a moment.

It was the first time that the maid would be making his food.

Not when Smith was around.

Smith had warned him severally on that and Grey wasn't ready for confrontation.

“You did what?” He asked, shocked.

Perhaps, he heard it wrong.

“I made spaghetti Bolognese for you,” she repeated.

Grey’s mouth dropped open in shock.

It felt like he had entered the wrong house.

Or perhaps Smith set a trap for him.

He must be very careful.

"Who told you to make my food? I don't remember giving you that instructions.” “Yes, madam Avery

said Ishould make it and wait till you are back so that I can serve you," she explained.

Grey was even more than shocked but he was very hungry that he didn’t even dwell on it too much.

Avery was being considerate all of a sudden and Grey wondered why.

The morning came even earlier than other days.

Just before Grey fell asleep, his phone beeped but he was too tired to check what the message was.

And that morning, he was in a rush to get to work that he forgot about the message.

Avery didn't speak to him that morning and he wondered why.

He actually expected her to ask about where he went the night before but she said nothing.

Grey moved to the closet and regarded his suits for a moment.

Then, his eyes went to the suit Avery got for him recently.

He decided on it.

Grey checked himself in the mirror and remembered his meeting with Alex.

Well, he had lost his abs years back and Grey felt it was the best time to start rebuilding it.

He was going to go back to the gym.

When Grey walked out of the room, Avery realized it was the suit she got for him.

A smile started on her face but she held it back.

She didn't know if she was happy about it or not.

One thing she was sure of was that she was being nice and there was no other feeling attached.

"How is your work, Grey," Smith asked suddenly with a hint of sarcasm.

L Grey looked up at him." I was going to ask you the same question.

You became the CEO of LX and I forgot to congratulate you,” he retaliated.

Smith made a wheezy laugh at his cleverness.

"I love that, keep it up." Lucy cleared his throat.

"So, Smith, who did you decide to be our ambassador?" “Well, there are three people thatI have in

mind.

We will eventually decide on the person suitable for us later on.

Though, I would have said we should go for Aphrodite but she’s currently not in the city,” Smith

revealed.

“Well, we could speak with her.

She could come here for us, that is if we will be ready to pay us,” Avery suggested.

"It doesn't matter," Lucy said quickly." We can wait till she gets here.

In the meantime, let's have someone else for it." "Chloe would have been the best,” Avery muttered.

Smith looked up at her.

"I said we will not use her," he contended in a thick voice.

Avery rolled her eyes.

“But she’s the best.

If we can't use her, then we should be thinking of using Aphrodite.

She’s the next best thing,” she hinted.

Smith felt a stab of annoyance at her persistence.

“Stop being stubborn.

I've spoken and my words is final! We won't be having her as our ambassador!” He said firmly ina deep

voice.

“No!” Avery wouldn’t have it.

"You are the one being stubborn! Stop combining business with personal feelings.

If you love Chloe and she rejected you.

You shouldn't be taking it on her in such a way.

It only shows the loser that you are!" She insulted.

Smith’s eyes shot out in rage.

” What did you just say?” Avery scoffed.

"It's the truth, anyways." Lucy watched them for a moment before his gaze finally settled on Smith.” You

love Chloe?” Smithcleared his throat.

“No, I don’t.

Don’t mind her, she’s just talking gibberish.

Avery laughed softly.

“I knew you wouldn’t say the truth,” she whispered.

Grey sighed at this.

He was getting fed up with the constant clashing between Avery and Smith.

Just as his mind strayed away at that moment, he remembered the message that he skipped the night

before.

He reached for his phone and pulled it out.

His eyes almost went out of their socket as he stared at the message.

The spoon fell off his hand, pulling attention back to him.

Grey looked up at them and cleared his throat meaningfully.

"I need to leave now, " he said quickly and drank some water before he hurried out ofthe house, without

waiting for a reply.

He placed a call to Don.

"Hey! Where are you? We need to see immediately!" "I'm at home.

Should I come over or will you?" Grey thought for a moment.

“I will come over.

Send me the address now,” and he hung up.

Another message popped up on his phone.

It was a message from Don.

Grey’s head was reeling.

He couldn’t think it through clearly.

He knew something was wrong but he didn't think it could be so bad.

Grey pulled up in front of Don's house a few minutes later.

Don was waiting for him outside already.

"Hi Boss, is everything alright?" Don was worried as Grey had never done something like that.

That aside, the expression on Grey’s face was scary.

Grey shook his head slowly and stretched out the phone to Don.

Don took it and read through the message.

He didn't understand what it meant and so, looked up at Grey for an answer.

“It’s XYZ.

It’s the code I told Lan about.

Do you remember what it means? If that code came from Lan, then that means he’s in trouble,” Grey

announced.

Don’s eyes went wide with shock.
