Chapter 324: Donald Reiss

Knock! Knock!

Grey heard a knock on his door, and quickly kept the papers in his storage ring.

After keeping them, he walked towards the door and opened it.

“Well, you’re early.” He said with a smile.

“The Reiss family head is here,” The young lady said blandly before turning around.

“How annoying,” Grey muttered under his breath.

“What?” The young lady turned around and asked.

“Lead the way,” Grey said before walking out of the room.

The young lady snorted coldly before turning around.

‘Void, how did things go?’ Grey inquired as he walked behind the young lady.

‘Better than you think,’ replied Void.

‘Oh really, tell me about it.’ Grey said.

Void went on to tell him about the discussion Gerald had with his daughter, as well as the other things he did after.

‘Looks like his fear for Teacher is genuine, at least that should guarantee my safety. Where’s he now?’ Grey asked.

‘In an office, accompanied by Alice’s father.’ answered Void.

‘How efficient, he was able to call him over this quickly.’ Grey thought to himself.

A few minutes later, they got to the office after going through multiple hallways in the villa.

Creak!

The young lady opened the door to the office but didn’t go in.

Grey entered the office and closed the door after entering, almost slamming it on the face of the young lady.

After entering, he looked around the office, Gerald was sitting on his chair as usual, and a middle-aged man could be seen sitting opposite him.

Both Gerald and the middle-aged man looked in his direction when they heard the door opening.

“You must be Grey?” Alice’s father asked as Grey walked in.

He had a serious expression, with a deep voice that sounded just like his expression, serious. His blue eyes were the only thing Grey found he had in common with Alice.

“Yes,” Grey nodded before walking closer.

He could see Alice’s father was scrutinizing him as he stepped into the office.

“Old man Gerald said you wanted to see me because of Alice?” Alice’s Father asked.

“Yes sir. I believe your daughter might be in danger, so I came to check on her to see if she’s alright,” Grey explained.

“Alice is not in the city. She left for a journey some weeks ago.” Alice’s father said gently.

“Sir, can you please tell me where she went? I know I shouldn’t ask, but I need to make sure she’s okay.” Grey said.

Alice’s father raised a brow when Grey asked this, his expression told Grey he was getting visibly angry with his question.

“Donald, cut him some slack. He came all the way to Frost City even though he knew the Emperor was searching for him, don’t you think you should at least show him a bit of trust?” Gerald interrupted when he noticed the situation was going differently.

“No. From what I found out, he’s the one who acquired the treasure. Why is the Emperor searching for my daughter then?” Donald replied.

“I don’t know, but if my guess is correct, the Emperor must have guessed I shared it with my friends. I only have three friends, and your daughter is one of them.” Grey answered his question before Gerald could reply.

“Hmph! What’s this treasure that would make even the Emperor make a move?” Donald snorted.

“That’s something I can’t say,” Grey shook his head.

“Then why should I trust you with my daughter’s location? The thing is, I believe the Emperor would leave my daughter alone if I hand you over to him,” Donald said while staring at Grey coldly.

Grey’s expression changed when he heard this. He never expected Alice’s father would be this difficult to get to.

“I’m not the enemy here, the Emperor is. Do you think the Emperor would let Alice go even if he gets me? He sees us as threats, threats to his supreme reign,” Grey replied with a stubborn expression.

Gerald shook his head when he saw this, he already knew of Donald’s stubbornness, especially when it has anything to do with Alice.

From Donald’s point of view, telling Grey Alice’s location would endanger her since they were also searching for her. That means if the Emperor were to capture Grey, then he could get Alice’s location from him.

“I’m not going to tell you where she is, you should give up and leave Frost City while you still can,” Donald said calmly.

“I’m not leaving this city until I find Alice, I don’t care if you’re her father or not,” Grey said, looking straight at Donald.

There wasn’t a bit of an atom of fear in his eyes, only stubbornness, and determination. He had made his stance clear. It’s either you tell me where Alice is, or I find out myself.

Gerald looked at both parties before shaking his head, “Donald, stop playing with the boy’s emotions. You can already see all he wants to do is to make sure his friend’s safe.”

“Please, can we have some privacy? I want to ask him some questions.” Donald looked at Gerald.

“Fine, but make it quick. This is my office, after all,” Gerald stood up and left the office.

After Gerald left, Donald focused his attention on Grey.

“What’s the name of the treasure?” He asked again.

Grey looked at him but refrained from answering.

“If you want to know where Alice is, then I advise you to tell me. I’ve asked her this question as well, but she refused.” Donald continued.

Two minutes later.

Donald and Grey could be seen walking out of Gerald’s office. After going through the pros and cons, Grey decided to tell him the treasure.

He didn’t tell him the number they acquired, and to his surprise, Donald didn’t ask.

Donald had a look of incredulity on his face as he walked out, and Gerald guessed it must have something to do with the treasure.

“He’ll be following me to my family compound,” Donald said as they walked past Gerald.

Gerald nodded without any reply.

“Thank you for your help,” Grey bowed to him when he walked close to him.

“It’s nothing,” Gerald waved it off.

He watched on as Grey left the villa with Donald.
