Chapter 141: Second Joker card “Sir, I sincerely don’t know what you are talking about. I’m certain I
wasn’t who you were talking about,” her lips quivered as she explained. “I’m sure I’m dead serious,” he
finished up and walked away. Violet was lost. She didn’t even know if she was supposed to believe
him. But she couldn’t stop the fact that he just related to Hercules. What if she really got sacked?
Grey walked towards the elevator, his gaze searching around for the other guy that tricked him the
other day. Grey was going to sack the two of them.
But he didn’t see him. So, he entered the elevator and went to the ninth floor.
He knocked slightly on Jane’s door.
There was a long moment of silence and shuffling. “Yes, come in,” the voice offered.
Grey opened the door and walked in. “Morning Jane.”
Jane looked up, somehow shocked for a few seconds but she soon got over it. “What are you doing
here?” A known expression spread across her face suddenly. “oh, are you here to beg for your job?
You must have been fired and you think you can come here and make me plead with Hercules on your
behalf?” Her eyes showed disdain and there was this big smugness on the other side. She was so
happy that her plan had worked. When she called Hercules that morning, she hadn’t thought that he
was going to work so fast. It was amazing to her.
Grey smiled softly. “You are quite funny, Jane. Do you sincerely think I’m here for that gibberish?” He
insinuated.

Jane stared at him for a moment, unable to believe him. “What are you insinuating?”
Grey looked away for a moment.” I’m here for something else, Jane,” he declared. Jane hissed. “Get
out of my office, Grey. I have no time for your baubles as well. I’m quite very busy.” Grey chuckled
softly. Jane gave him a perplexed look. “Why did you laugh just now?” She asked,
shocked. As far she knew, Grey was supposed to be in the SU world and Jane didn’t understand what
was happening. “Are you sure you don’t want to hear the end of this story?” He asked dangerously.
Jane cleared her throat meaningfully.” What do you want exactly?” Grey looked at her again.” I came
here so that you can show me to my new office, “he revealed.
Jane’s heart sat bolt upright at the word. “What do you mean?”
“I mean everything you’ve just heard. From today henceforth, I’m the new supervisor of this company.”
Jane stared for a moment and suddenly burst into fresh tears. “Is this supposed to be a funny joke?
Well, it’s quite funny,” she laughed the more. Grey shrugged slightly.” You still don’t know what had hit
you, Jane. But
fortunately for you, you will find out soon,” he assured her. He barely stopped talking when a knock
sounded on the door. “Who the fuck is there!” Jane yelled, in anger, her voice betraying the emotion
she was feeling inside. She was supposed to act very coolly but she didn’t have the luxury of time for it.
Well, Grey knew that she would soon go raving mad when she discovered the last Joker card he had
played.
There was a strange silence on the other end before the door opened and a lady walked inside. “You
have a letter, boss.” Jane’s heart made a sudden beat.” What’s the letter for?” She asked as if she was
expecting the lady to have read it.
“I sincerely don’t know,” The lady said truthfully before she walked out. Jane placed the letter on the
table beside her and looked at Grey. “You should leave now. There’s no way you would be promoted
here as a supervisor. You’ve committed a lot of sin and you deserve to be fired,” she accused.
Grey huffed.” Why don’t you read your letter and let’s find out who will be fired today.”
Jane smiled at this.” Of course, it would be you. I will never be fired. Even Hercules trusts my work,”
she boasted. Seriously? Grey wanted to laugh but he bit it back in.
“If you don’t show me to my new office, someone else will and I don’t know what that would mean to
you,” he warned softly. “I’m definitely calling Hercules and asking him what it’s all about. You better
pray that Hercules doesn’t say something opposite of what you have just said or you will be jailed! I
promise you. You will rot in jail!” She stressed out in anger and frustration.
Just as she picked up her phone to call, another knock sounded on the door. Jane sighed, exhausted.
“who is there again? Whoever should come in!” The door opened and Maria stepped inside, a bit
scared. Her eyes went wide with shock when she saw Grey.
“Boss, good morning,” she looked so happy to see him. “Good morning,” Grey responded and looked

Jane blinked once, lost. “What do you mean?”
Grey smiled. “Maria here will show me to my new office. You don’t need to bother yourself with it. In
fact, you are not even qualified to do so again,” he muttered in a thick voice.
Maria looked over at Grey, shocked. “Your new office?”
Grey nodded briefly. “I’m the new supervisor of Protos Pubblicita.”
Maria’s face spread into a nice smile. ” I’m so happy about this,” in fact, she was more than happy. She
enjoyed working with Grey anyways.
Jane stared in shock. She was more confused. “What is happening here? Will you two get out of my
office?”

Maria whipped her face towards her. ” What do you mean by your office? This isn’t your office again,”
she announced.
Jane stood suddenly. She couldn’t take it any longer and had to do something about it. “Are you out of
your fucking mind? How dare you come here and start spouting rubbish? I will teach you some sense!
In fact, you will all be sacked today!” She bragged and dialed a number on the telephone. “Hello
security, get your ass over here immediately!”
Maria sighed. ” It’s pointless, Jane. You no longer work here.” Jane looked over at Maria with confused
expression.” What do you mean?” “That I own this office now. I’m the new secretary of Hercules,” Maria
declared
with pride.
