Chapter 301: Accusation
Grey froze for a second but quickly got back to his senses. He knew that he had to act quickly.
"Stop there!" He yelled and jumped forward before the intruder would dip the string into Charles's skin.
The man ignored him and struggled to continue with what he was doing but Grey's hand was already on his, thwarting his plan.
"Who are you?" Grey demanded as he gave him an uppercut, thereby making him fall to the floor.
The man regarded Grey for a moment while still on the floor.
"Who are you?" Grey demanded again.
The man didn't say anything, instead, he went over to the other side to continue her plan of injecting Charles.
Grey jumped over Charles and kicked the man in the chest. The kick sent him reeling backward. Before he could get up, Grey was already over him, giving him blows filled with hatred and anger.
"Grey?" A familiar voice said from above him, making Grey lose control all of a sudden. He looked back, skeptical because he thought that Charles was still in a coma. But the voice that just called his name sounded exactly like Charles.
The man used the opportunity to punch Grey in the face. He pushed him off almost immediately.
When Grey would look at the man again, he was working out of the room.
Grey hurried after him quickly. Just as he walked out, he saw the man running toward the elevator.
One of his men rushed past him, to Grey. "Boss."
Grey regarded him for a moment. "Stay here! Get the others too and you must not leave here until I get back!" He ordered and rushed towards the elevator as well.
The elevator was moving when he got there but he didn’t think the man had ridden in it. He on second thought takes the way to the staircase. And he saw the man running down the stairs.
"Wait right there!" Grey yelled and hurried after him.
He didn't want to think about it at first but there was a huge probability that someone had sent him to kill Charles. Could it be Giovanni or Alex? Well, he was determined to get to the root of the matter. That was why he was after the man and he would never let him go.
Maybe he was going to start from there. Cut off his head and send it as a gift to Giovanni.
Grey jumped severally, sometimes three steps at a time. The other man was far away from him but he could see his head as he ran through the stairs.
When Grey entered the lobby, the man was nowhere to be found. Grey gaze searched the whole place anxiously but the man was gone already.
"Sir," a feminine voice said from behind him.
Grey turned to look at her and realized she was one of the nurses. Though, he wondered why she called him.
"Is everything alright?"
"I want to know why you ran through the stairs. You could have knocked out anyone on the way," her voice was hostile.
Grey sighed. "Well, it was an emergency."
"Emergency?" Her eyes went wide with disbelief. "We don't run in the hospital no matter the emergency."
"But you do know that there are some cases where that can actually happen. And that was why I said it was an emergency."
The nurse huffed. "It looked like I'm going to call security on you. Why are you here in the first place? You looked ragged and unorganized to me!" She glared at him. Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
"You see, Miss_," he looked down at her rage. "Mary, the situation warranted it and I'm sorry about it."
"No! You aren't sorry and you need to be punished for it!" She yelled." Security!" She called out to the security guard that was patrolling.
The security guard moved closer. "Is anything the matter, Miss Mary?"
"No! I just caught a thug running down the stairs when we have elevators."
The security guard looked at Grey for a moment. "Maybe he was in a rush," he suggested.
"I was and I told her it was an emergency. In fact, I wasn't the only one running down the stairs. You only saw me."
"How dare you lie!" Mary snapped at him. "James, just look at him. Look at the way he's dressed." She gestured towards him.
It was at this moment Grey was able to look at himself. He actually had three buttons pulled off and there was a stain of blood on his shirt. It must have been when he was struggling with the man earlier. Also, he punched the man and drew blood.
"Miss Mary, I assure you that it's not what you think. You do have a CCTV camera right? You can check through and you will see that I'm telling the truth."
"Maybe he's right," the security guard said.
"No James. Don't trust this man. He only wants to use the opportunity to run off. I'm sure he's going to do that the moment we turn our back on him." She accused him. "He should be detained."
"What is going on here?" A deep accentuated voice said suddenly. It was doctor Mike.
Mary smiled. "Thank God you are here. We have a situation. This man here looks rugged and was caught running down the stairs. I'm sure he must have done something to the patients. We need to detain him until we've gotten to the root of the matter," she explained.
It was at this moment that Mike was able to look at Grey. "Wait a moment, are you-," he didn't finish as Gregory entered the lobby with some men.
Because of who he was, every attention turned towards him.
Gregory's gaze found Grey quickly and immediately knew that something was wrong. A frown spread across his face as he moved nearer to them.
Mike actually knew that Grey was the CEO of Victoria Skincare because he had recently started patronizing the cream. But Gregory was a very important person in society.
