Chapter 20: unbelievable

Avery‘s eyes showed how angry she was, in fact, it looked as though she was in a rage, with eyes almost turning red. She picked up her phone and turned to leave the living room.

Grey walked after her. “I can help you with the problem you are facing,” he blurted out but quickly regretted it.

Avery turned to look at him again, with eyes filled hatred.” Stop saying nonsense, Grey. There‘s absolutely nothing you can do.”

“But I have a job now. I‘m now a manager in Alfred‘s company,” he declared.

“Oh,” she smirked.” Do you think that shows your position is permanent? Alfred might treat you well today but he might get fed up with you tomorrow. He might discard you like trash! Don‘t you get it?” She explained.

Grey regarded her for a moment. “He can‘t,” he pointed out. Avery sighed. “How the heck did I end up with you Grey? How did you get inside my room? How did you ruin my life?” She screamed the last part.” You are useless, you don‘t have a family, no parents, and nothing. Damn! What the fuck can you seriously do with Alfred?” She expressed sadly.” I’m not going to do this,” she finished up and walked away.

Grey stared behind her for a moment, shocked but not angry. Well, he had initially thought he was nobody with everything he went to. Most times, he wanted to die.

But who would have thought that the orphan was the next Hercules?

Grey‘s phone made a vibration and a message popped up on his phone. The sender was Philip, one of his classmates in college.

He had been an object of ridicule even in college because he had to work per time to sponsor himself. He worked as a barman, as a delivery man, and almost every dirty work. And his course–mates ridiculed him for it.

The message read; ‘There‘s a reunion tomorrow evening. Make sure you are there.‘ Grey knew they wanted to ridicule him, as they have always been doing. Just that, he would disappoint them soon. He walked into one of the maids‘ quarters since he was sure that Avery wouldn‘t let him enter her room. Grey‘s phone rang suddenly as he lay on the bed. It was Alfred.
