Chapter 276: Surprise announcement
Grey turned around slowly, the phone still in his hand.
"Who are you? And what are you doing here?"
"Is something going on there?" A voice asked suddenly.
Just before the man could say something, a car drove inside, followed by another. And everyone got
distracted including the man that was pointing a gun at his face.
Grey took the opportunity quickly. He punched the man by the hand quickly so that he would drop the
gun before he squeezed his next.
He took to the run quickly while the other men attended to the cars that just drove inside. Grey didn’t
know if it was Charles or not but it was a great opportunity that he didn’t want to miss.
"Hey! Get him!" someone said suddenly as Grey hurried towards the entrance. Some of the men turned
towards
Grey but it was too late and he had slipped inside already.
A man in a suit was speaking on the phone and walking towards Grey. Grey hid quickly and waited for
him to move nearer. When he got closer, Grey came out and hit him by the neck and he slumped

The MC on the stage was actually about to announce the winner of the CCS award. Giovanni has seen
and met with some of the organisers before the program started. And the names have been changed.
The MC was supposed to mention Grey only if he showed up. But then, it has been confirmed that he
wouldn't. Well, Giovanni said he would see to it. That aside, he would be settling the organisers.
As much as some of the organisers don't want to go against Giovanni. They know the consequences of
going against Norm. Grey Fox of Victoria Skincare was what was on the record but they could switch it
up easily if Grey doesn’t show up.
The MC’s eyes searched around for another minute and when he didn’t notice Grey anywhere, he
decided to announce Hattie’s name instead as the winner.
'The award for the CCS goes to_," he stopped suddenly as Grey walked inside. Mc’s eyes went wide
with shock and the words he was about to say evaporated from his mouth.
Some of the crowds that were following him followed the path of his gaze toward the man in a suit that
just stepped inside.
The organisers and VIP exchanged gazes and nodded briefly at the confused MC.
The MC cleared his throat, ".goes to Grey Fox of Victoria Skincare!" be announced and featured ahead
at Grey Fox.
Alex turned around slowly to look at Grey. His eyes went wide and a dark frown spread across his face.
What was Grey doing inside the hall? How did he even get there? Alex felt a surge of rage at the fact
that Grey was walking alive as if he owned the place. How did he even survive?
A round of applause arose from the gathering as Grey walked towards the podium. Giovanni was
furious and shocked. He had to keep calm with every ounce of his strength.
Grey climbed up on the stage with a smile on his face. He hesitated as his gaze met with Alex and a
teasing smile spread across his face. Alex clenched his fist in anger at the sight of him or the fact that
Caramel would be overjoyed somewhere when she heard the news that he was alive.
Well, that was if she didn't even know yet.
Grey took the gold award and smiled at Hattie who was about to turn red from where she sat.
"Is there anything you would like to say, Grey Fox?" the MC inquired?
Grey nodded briefly. "I have a lotto say," he murmured and the microphone was handed over to him.
He cleared his throat meaningfully as the hall went eerily silent. "I want to use this opportunity to thank
a role model, Hattie," he smiled softly as he looked at her again. "She taught me a lot in this business,
especially the fact that one has to be extra brilliant and tactical to win. Thank you!" he finished, handing
the microphone to the shocked MC before he walked down the stage.
Some clapped for him but people like Alex, Giovanni, and Hattie didn't. They couldn't even stop
foaming.
Grey found a nice seat to take before he took out his phone and texted Jimmy and Maria to go ahead.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe two understood the assignment already anyways.
"Where is the woman you call your secretary?" Jane whined. Well, Grey was dead and Hercules was
dead already. So, he could be back as the new secretary. Maria had to go. She had no business as a
secretary of Protos Pubblicita, a work she had been doing for so long.
Maria was in her office with three of her most trusted workers. They had to hurry up with thirty copies.
And they would continue with the rest that night. They just needed to distribute that when it was time to.
Her phone rang suddenly, just when she was done reading the message that Grey had sent. It was
time to distribute the copies they’d made.
"Yes. What's this all about?" Maria yelled at Jones. "I told you I was busy and I didn’t want to be
disturbed," she said with distaste. She even cancelled all her appointments for that day because of the
assignment but one of the workers was bent on disturbing her.
"Yes, I'm sorry but Miss Jane wants to see you. We have tried to make her leave all to no avail. I don't
know what to do but call your attention to this," she explained.
Maria went silent for a moment. "Jane? The ex-secretary?"
"Yes boss, she is. What should we do?"
Maria sighed. "I will be there soon. Don't do anything," she hung up to look at the workers. "We are
done here, guys. We will meet by evening ."
Then she took her phone and thought of what to do about Jane.
