Chapter 14: Hercules loyalists

Peter scoffed and turned towards Jessica. “Call the securities right now and get this guy out of this place!”

“Using a fake check, I‘ll call the police and charge you with fraud!” Peter laughed. The door behind them opened quickly and Grey bent to pack the pieces of the cheque. His hands shuddered beside him as he clenched his fist in anger.

The securities moved nearer to him and he contemplated quickly on what to do.

The door opened before he could do anything and a familiar deodorant filled the air. Grey was very angry now and all he wanted to do was punch Peter in the face, even though he might have to return to Alfred for another cheque.

“What the fuck is happening here!” Gregory roared suddenly. He seemed to have recognized Grey from his stance,

Grey let out several breaths to steady himself. Maybe, he wouldn‘t need to disturb himself at all now that Gregory was around.

Peter turned towards him with a calmer expression. “I‘m so sorry you have to see this. There was only a bug and it shall be taken care of.”

“Can we move now please! I need to see the manager,” the rich man behind Peter reminded again, annoyingly. Gregory sent him a dirty stare and his eyes went wide with shock. “I‘m meeting the manager instead,” he ordered, his eyes still on the rich man. And it seemed like he knew who Gregory really was.

Mafia men would always recognize themselves. “Oh, alright,” he turned back to the rich man and realized he had backed off already. “Should we go now?”

Actually, Gregory seemed like a no–nonsense mafia boss.

“Ask me that again and you won‘t like the aftermath,” his voice was thick and spoke authority.

“He‘s coming with me and so are you,” Gregory finished up in a voice that left no room for more conversation. He started up the stairs while Grey followed quietly. Peter was also quiet while wondering what was really happening. Gregory stopped before the office and glanced back at Peter. “You stay here while he follows me.”
