Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose) -
Chapter 658
This time, Jack was forced to admit defeat.
He could not help but admire Jay's foresight and meticulousness when dealing with a problem.
Grayson smiled as he left.
As he watched Grayson's thin figure leave them, Jack burst forth and caught up with him. Grayson had just got into the lift when Jack slipped in with him.
"Does the old master have something to say to me?"
Jack hesitated before saying, "Grayson, I'm aware of your abilities. You should know that one should always go with the flow. Grand Asia is no longer as grand as it used to be. Now that Jay is paralyzed in both legs and you have lost the support of Ares Enterprises, Grand Asia won't be able to hold on for much longer. However, if you're willing to join us at Ares Enterprises, I promise that I'll treat you well." Grayson smiled awkwardly. "Old Master, seeing how kindly you've treated me, consider it kindness when I remind you of the idiom, 'keep your friends close, but your enemies closer'. If you want to bring me away, you should have investigated as to why I decided to continue staying at Grand Asia."
The doors opened and Grayson strode off.
An inexplicable glow appeared in the depths of Jack's
eyes.
Grayson had not rejected him outright. Did that mean he still had a chance?
Jack retrieved his phone and immediately made a call to his secretary. "Get me a file with information about Grayson immediately." "Yes, Sir."
His secretary returned the call to him shortly.
"Mr. Director, I've got the file on Grayson."
Jack was surprised. He had thought it would be difficult to get information on the higher-ups in Grand Asia.
"Tell me."
"The file states that he's an orphan. When he was eight years old, he was adopted by the founder of Grand Asia and sent overseas. When he came back, he took the role of being Master Ares' assistant." The color of Jack's face turned green. Grayson had been toying with him.
He had given him hope only to have them dashed at the next step.
They were both family and friends. There was no way Grayson would betray Jay.
When he left Bell Enterprise's Central Building, Grayson immediately rushed over to Grand Asia's medical department where Old Master Severe's ward
was.
"Grayson, Jay told you to come, didn't he?" Old Master Severe had not seen Jay for a long time and missed him. "How's Jay doing? Is he feeling better?" Grayson answered truthfully, "His health is fine, but he has to spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair."
Old Master Severe shed tears at that news. "It's too bad for that child."
"Thank you for caring for him, Old Master Severe," Grayson said.
"He must've encountered a difficult matter he couldn't solve if he asked you to come to see me. Why don't you tell me what's going on," Old Master Severe said.
Grayson immediately replied, "Ares Enterprises is cutting off ties with Grand Asia, and they're cutting off production of many pieces needed by Grand Asia. Mr. Ares hopes that you, Old Master Severe, will be able to enter the field again. Grand Asia needs the help of Severe Enterprise."
Old Master Severe took a look at the familiar ward before saying, "I've been here for too long. It's high time I left. Tell him to give me two years."
Grayson smiled as he said, "Two years is just fine."
The expression on his face sobered as he thought of something. "Old Master Severe, the missus might not be able to welcome you personally when you're discharged."
Old Master Severe got a bad feeling in his heart. "What happened to Angel?"
Grayson could only tell the truth. "She got framed and is in jail right now. Don't worry, Old Master Severe, Mr. Ares has made the necessary arrangements. She won't be in there for too long." There was a solemn expression on Old Master Sever's face. "Alright."
Jack had been out and about for the whole day, but his efforts were to no avail. He returned to Sycamore Annex in Tourmaline Estate.
Sitting in his study, Jack lay his head against the headrest and shut his eyes. A smile appeared on his weather-beaten face.
Holding a platter of fruits, Sera entered the room and said gently, "Old Master Ares."
