Chapter 280

: Shocked is an understatement

Grey walked to a raised podium. The room was seething with Hercules men while the elders were
already waiting for Grey at the raised podium.

Grey moved closer to them. He was wearing a blue suit and a black mask. And he was followed by
Aphrodite.

He hesitated in front of the crowd as they went silent in anticipation.

"Is Hercules truly dead?" Someone asked suddenly, from the audience.

There were a few minutes of dead silence as everyone thought over the question. It was palpably clear
that they believed the news.

"It doesn't matter if he is. I will always be for Hercules!" Someone said suddenly, with a raised hand.

"Yes, me too!" Another person joined in and soon, they were all saying the same thing.

"I spread the news," Grey started suddenly. "About my death! " He added quickly.

The look on each man changed briefly at the announcement.

"Does this mean Hercules lives and you are the Hercules?" Another man demanded.

Grey didn't respond. Instead, Charles stepped out. "Here's the ring that belongs to the previous
Hercules, his father," he stretched out and it soon appeared large on the screen behind them.

Awe escaped everyone as they read the inscription on the ring. It definitely belong to Hercules but it
wasn't enough proof as anyone could hold the ring and claim he was Hercules.



"Hercules is alive, hale, and healthy," Alfred stepped forward. The reason for this urgent meeting was
to show you to your boss. It's been a while and Hercules has been through a lot of things. It's time to
protect him by ourselves, " he announced.

At these words, all the men went on one knee in worship of Hercules.

Grey could see everyone and the loyalty they plead. To even imagine a lot of men served him? Men
that were ready to sacrifice their lives for him.

His gaze searched around until it found James. There was this nice smile on his face, and a little nod of
the head to egg him on.

Then, he looked over to his left.

Grey's eyes went wide slightly as he stared at Caramel. She was really inside. It was the population of
the men that was preventing him from seeing her.

But at that moment, only two people were standing, her and Mattee.

Grey let out a sigh. He had to do it.

The men got up again and Grey turned his back on them.

Aphrodite stepped forward and took the suit off slowly or maybe that was how it looked like to Caramel.

She saw the gaze that the man wearing the mask gave her and she couldn't help but think it was
familiar. It was just like the gaze that Hercules gave her at the party. That was why she felt ok speaking
to him about a job in Protos Pubblicita. Caramel felt as though she had known him for a long time.

The moment the shirt was slipping out of the man's body, Caramel held her breath. She and everyone
around knew what was happening. The man was trying to show the audience the tattoo.



Alex had a tattoo and he was the son of Giovanni and his heir. So, that meant that Hercules would
have a tattoo too.

And coincidentally, Grey had a tattoo as well. The fact that Caramel wasn't seeing Grey anywhere was
starting to scare her. What if Grey was really connected to Hercules?

A gasp escaped her as a tattoo of a viper came to view, as if it was still alive. Its gaze was dangerous.
Caramel was frozen to her feet.

"It's the Hercules!" Someone raised, with happiness in his voice. "Hercules lives!"

The frown that was initially on the men’s faces evaporated and was replaced with a smile. Their boss
was truly alive.

They yelled in excitement. "The king lives!" They chanted. The elders had a smile on their faces as
they looked at them.

Grey turned around slowly as Aphrodite helped him with his clothes.

"Hercules has something else to show everyone," Alfred voiced out suddenly and the noise went down.

Grey nodded briefly. "It's time to let you know who I am and what I look like," he declared and looked at
the anticipation on the men's faces. For ten years, Hercules has been missing. It was a pleasure for
them to see who their master was, after so long.

His hands went slowly to his face, to the mask and he pulled it off.

Some of the men had shocked written on their faces because they'd seen him before but they didn't
know who he was.

"I am Hercules and I am your master!" He announced in a deep voice.



There was another yell of excitement that sprang into the air. "Long live the king!"

"Long live the don!"

"Long live Hercules!" They screamed and the men went on their knees for the second time that day.

Ok, that gave him the opportunity to see Caramel again, to check how she was doing.

There was this shock written all over her face as she continued to look at Grey as if she had turned into
a statue.

Grey looked away quickly. He couldn't afford to act weak in front of his men. "Spreading the news about
my death, was my plan to clean this audience. I discovered that we had a lot of spies among you guys.
Watch out for anyone that joins you after today especially if he or she doesn't have the tattoo. Though, I
will still be watching. It's a cruise on my ship. You guys should have fun until we return to the shore."

"Let's drink to the safety of Hercules!" Alfred announced suddenly and raised a glass cup.

"Let's drink to the reappearance of Hercules!" Gregory voiced out, with a raised cup.

"Let's drink to the brand season!" Charles said suddenly, a smile forming on his face.

"Let's drink to the successful plan!" Jayden yelled in excitement.

"Let's drink in mocking of Giovanni," Luciano laughed.

"Three bows to Hercules!" Don ordered.

The men took to one knee at the same time.

Caramel was still there, looking with shock written over.



The men got up and went down again. At the third round, Caramel was suddenly nowhere to be found.
