Jay made more than a dozen calls to Rose, but her phone remained switched off.
He called Josephine who took a look at the furious mother-daughter duo, then a look at the incoming caller ID before she quietly hung up on him.
Jay looked depressedly at his phone. For the first time in his life, he felt that the small, weak women were difficult to take care of.
"Grayson, how do I coax a woman?” Jay asked listlessly as he slumped against the back of his chair.
Looking at the mirror, Grayson gave the frustrated Mr. Ares an incredulous look.
Mr. Ares had started his business when he was still a teenager and effectively cut through the black and white of the business world. Even the most cunning people and evil wolves had nowhere to hide in his presence.
Yet, he was stumped by a few women.
"Mr. Ares, I have no experience in coaxing women. You'll have to ask your fourth uncle for help. He’s one o f the most flirtatious men I've met.” Grayson had a look of admiration on his face when John was mentioned.
"Call him," Jay ordered.
It took Grayson a moment to realize what he had said.
Mr. Ares was probably worried that John would laugh at him, so he wanted him to call John, right?
Grayson hesitated. "Mr. Ares, he might not talk to me ...?"
"Try."
Forced by Mr. Ares, Grayson had no choice but to take out his phone obediently and call John.
"Sir... John?" Grayson stuttered when the line connected.
