Chapter 375: Thoughts
Grey stared down at the floor for a moment, as Seth's laughter rang in his ears. No matter how much he tried to get up, he was always falling back. His eyes were always seeing double.
He stood still for a moment as one of the men raised the steel pipe in the air and aimed it at him.
Grey closed his eyes as he decided to concentrate more on the sounds and not try to see. His vision was blurry anyways. There was no point opening it and trying to make himself feel more vulnerable.
He listened carefully just as his father had taught him. He heard the movement of the leg and the way the steep pipe went through the air in an attempt to hit him.
Grey rolled from the spot and kicked one of the guys close by on the leg. He got up quickly, with his eyes still closed.
The men came at her at once. Grey heard them clearly as he bent so quickly, dodging one punch from behind. Because of his swift movement, the punch hit another guy by his left side.
Grey jumped up and kicked at two more guys before he dropped to the floor and listened again. A base bat was coming over his head. Grey held onto it so hard that the guy couldn't move it again, then he punched him in the face.
He elbowed two guys by his left and right sides quickly. The men winced and that disrupted his balance. He wasn't able to hear the next step. Before he could blink, he felt the punch rush toward his face but it stopped suddenly.
"What the fuck is happening in my club!” A deep familiar voice yelled out. Grey recognized him through his voice to be Don. A lot of guys were actually lying on the floor, in pain.
Don was actually the one that stopped the punch from hitting Grey’s face.
Seth's eyes widened in shock at the sight of Don. He knew who he was and how powerful he was. So, he wasn't ready to cross with him. Don controls Megaphone and the area.
“Pull back!" Seth yelled.
"What's happening, Boss? Do you want US to deal with Seth?” Don asked in a whisper.
Grey shook his head briefly. "No, don't,” he shook his head briefly, opened his eyes, and concentrated on his vision. "Aphrodite. Get Aphrodite and don't let him know who I am." Grey muttered to Don and closed his eyes as he tried to keep his balance. Don walked forward with a dark frown on his face. "Why are you guys causing trouble here?” His gaze searched around for Aphrodite. ‘What are you doing with her? You better get lost before I change my mind!" He threatened.

"I said leave!" Seth said again and hurried out of the vicinity.
The thugs hurried away as well. They left Aphrodite on the floor and hurried off.
Grey tried to open his eyes again and saw that the dizziness was almost gone. He rushed to Aphrodite. "That bastard! I was supposed to kill him!"
Don and the other men hurried closer to him.
“Boss! Are you alright?” Don inquired and moved to help Grey with Aphrodite.
Grey shook his head briefly. "Don't bother, I've got this," he responded and took Aphrodite up from the ground. She was still sleeping. Well, she would have screamed or made a fuss if she wasn't. Aphrodite hated dirt so much.
“Are you really alright, boss?" Don demanded again as he took Aphrodite's bag and hurried after Grey.
Grey didn’t answer as he made his way toward his car. Don hurried to open the door for him. Grey placed Aphrodite in the back seat and turned to look at Don. He was still feeling a bit dizzy.
"I'm fine. Mark Seth's face and make sure he's not allowed inside Megaphone Attitude ever again!” Don bowed slightly.
"Alright boss,” he responded and the rest of the men also bowed slightly.
Jimmy rushed to them. "Boss."
Don looked at Jimmy. ‘Where have you been? What have you been doing? You shouldn't have left the boss alone like this! Do you know what would have happened if I didn't come out in time?"
Jimmy’s heart made a sudden thud as he looked at Grey. “Boss? I'm so sorry!"
Don grunted. "The elders will not take it lightly with you if something bad happens to the boss!" He scolded.
Grey smiled softly. "Let's go," he muttered and one of the men rushed to open the passenger's door for him. Grey got inside and waited for Jimmy to enter the driver’s seat.
"Are we going to Miss Aphrodite's place first?" Jimmy inquired.
Grey nodded briefly. ‘When you drop her off, then we can drive to my place.”
Jimmy nodded briefly. "Alright boss," he responded and started the ignition.
Grey relaxed in the chair, feeling a bit calm. He was really going to deal with Seth for what he had caused him that night. But that would be after he had given him the last card through making him lose the order. He would not only make him lose it, but he would also make him lose a lot of money so that he wouldn't be able to walk freely in the city because he would publish articles about him.
If Seth doesn't kill himself, he would never set foot in Jacksonville again.
And if Beatrice dies, Grey would surely kill him.
A tap on Grey's hand jerked him out of his slumber. He had dozed off.
‘We are at Aphrodite’s place. Do you want me to help her inside?” Jimmy informed him.
Grey shook his head briefly and got down. Aphrodite was sleeping like a baby that had no stress in the world. He smiled again before he scooped her into his arms.
Just as he walked towards the door, the security guards rushed closer to Grey to help him.
Grey shook his head briefly and walked past them. They hurried to the door and helped him to open it.
Grey walked inside the living room. A maid stood on seeing Grey. She was initially sitting by the phone and waiting for it to ring.
"Ma'am!" She released a sigh of relief." Thank you so much, Boss. I was so worried. She won't even answer her phone."
"Oh, her phone! It's in the car."
The maid smiled. “Alright, sir. I will get it. You can drop her in her room," she said and didn't wait for Grey to talk before she hurried out of the room.
Grey stared down at Aphrodite for a moment, and a smile curled up on his face.
He walked inside the room and gently placed her on the bed. When he walked back into the living room, he sat and waited for the maid to come inside or maybe he was just trying to see if he would soon feel better to return home. He still doesn't know if he was ready to do so.
