When Stacy finally gets that call from Gray that he is finally coming home, she is so happy that she bakes a cake for him. She is happy to see him again, even though he has been away from her for like a day, she misses her dear husband so very much. Also, she is afraid that he is going to come back home and chastise her for letting her guard down and going shopping with Wendy. Surely, Alice told him what happened. She waits for him in the kitchen and when she sees the taxi pull up in front of the house, she jumps up happily and picks up the cake before rushing to the door. “Welcome home, dear husband! Welcome home, dear husband!” She sings as he comes through the door. Gray smiles as soon as he sees her. He leans in for a kiss. “Oh, Stacy, I was barely away for a day!” “That doesn't mean that I don't miss my husband!” She grins. He ropes his hands around her waist. The door opens wider and William comes into the house with the bag that he hurriedly packed when they were coming.

This is not Stacy being entitled, no, this is about her thinking that maybe because they're work for the anonymous trillionaire, that they would get even the lowest grade ticket that see the party. Wendy hears her silent and immediately smirks with enjoyment. “You haven't gotten your tickets, have you?” She asks. “Well, no,” Stacy answers. “Gray just came back from his trip and we have discussed it yet, but we haven't gotten any ticket.”“Oh, don't even try to lie to me right now. If he had the tickets, you would have told me already!” Wendy hiss. “Gray hasn't changed. He is still the poor idiot that I divorced. How do you feel wallowing in my leftover?” Stacy sighs with sadness she hates when Wendy talks down on Gray like this. “Can you not say stuff like this about him, please?” Stacy begs. “Gray is working very hard and he is trying his best. You don't know this, but he is gathering some money to buy a small house very soon.” Wendy snorts with disbelief. “A house? Gray can't

Stacy screams with excitement. She rushes upstairs into their bedroom and there it is, the most beautiful dress that she has ever laid her eyes on. Her face suddenly freeze with fear and she start to shake. She was reading a fashion magazine days ago and she saw a red dress that was encrusted with beautiful stones. She loved the dress so much that she went online to check the price, but her throat went dry when she saw the price. So she sat back down and admired the picture in the magazine and then drew small hearts around the dress. She concluded in her heart that she would never be able to get the dress. Now the dress is sitting on the bed! “Please, please, please, tell me that this is a dream!” She jumps as she grabs his hand. “I really hope you like this colour. Because we are supposed to leave in less than thirty minutes and I will have to order another color–” “Are you kidding me?” She laughs. “This is the most gorgeous dress I have ever seen in my life!” Gray smiles, h

Stacy is so happy and excited that she can't stop smiling. She looks out of the window, grinning and tapping her feet to a beat. “Wendy was mocking me and told me that she got the tickets and we weren't invited.” She laughs. “But I know that the anonymous trillionaire won't be so heartless to us. You worked so hard for him, so why won't he give you even the lowest level tickets?” She looks at Gray, seeing that he is not smiling or laughing with her, that's when it dawns on her with doom. “Wait, you don't have the tickets.” She clutches her chest. “The anonymous trillionaire hasn't assigned anyone to us.” Gray mutters. “But don't worry, maybe we can get something when we get there…” Stacy drops her head into her hands. She almost bursts into tears, but she finds herself. “There is no way that we will be allowed in there.” She sighs. “We are going to be kicked out and we will be the laughing stock of the party.” William pities her as he looks at her through the window.“Mrs Lanc

“What?!” Wendy looks horrified. “What do you mean that their tickets are of a higher level than ours?! Do you know who we are?!” “Miss, I don't make the rules, I am just following orders.” The security says. “They are cleared to go to the VIP section of the party, and you can't do anything about it.” Wendy and Mateo are greatly offended by this. They immediately start to make a scene with the security, while Stacy, Gray, and William watch. “Do you know who I am?! I have been friends with the anonymous trillionaire for years! He is going to be here today and I am going to tell him about this! Bet, by tomorrow, you won't have a job!” Mateo rants. Stacy hasn't recovered from the shock of them having the highest level tickets, so Gray puts his hand over her shoulder and leads her in. “Ho– how did we even get the highest level tickets?” She wonders. “Mateo and Wendy are direct associates of the anonymous trillionaire, but he didn't even give that to them.” “The anonymous trillionair

Stacy is so nervous that she is grabbing another glass of wine to pour down her throat, but that's when Gray puts a gentle hand on her shoulder. “Could you excuse us for a quick minute, Stacy?” Gray asks. “We have to go to the bathroom.” “What? Both of you? At the same time? You both can't leave me here! I don't even know any of these rich people!” “We are going to be back in like five minutes.” Gray says. “Of course you will be fine till then.” “What will happen if the anonymous trillionaire comes up to me when you are gone? How are we supposed to thank him together?” He smiles at her cute panic. “Don't worry, you will be fine. Just enjoy your glass of wine and we will be back before you know it.” She sighs and agrees for them to go, even when she knows that she has social anxiety and would prefer not to be left alone with people she doesn't know. Gray and William head out and immediately they are out, they take off their masks. “Tell me, how did you get such a good woman lik

William feels as if the breath in his lungs has suddenly been snatched from his lungs. The people who killed his father are going to be at the party today! His hands turn into fists and Gray immediately notices this. “It's too early to start to avenge your father now.” Gray warns him. “If you strike too early, everything that we have worked for is going to be in vain.” “I will kill him myself before I allow him to ruin that for her.” Alice snarls. Gray takes the suit from her, together with the shoes and the mask. He will change, so that when he walks into the room, no one will notice that he is the same person. The mask has also been specially designed to keep his face hidden from those who he wants to keep in the dark about his identity. “Call me when I'm ready, for now…” Gray looks from Alice and William. “Get familiar with yourself, because from now on, both of you will work together.” Gray leaves the room and Alice sighs as she takes out her phone and aggressively starts t

Gray has been looking forwards to meeting another member of the De Nicola Mafia, and that day is finally here. Dawson smiles as he offers Gray a respectful smile and a handshake. “Mister anonymous! I have been looking forward to the day that I will meet you!” He says. “I bring you greeting from the entire De Nicola family.” “The pleasure is mine, Mister Burke.” He says. “Hope you are enjoying the party?” “Yes, I am, sir.” He says. “I was hoping to have a meeting with you today. The de Nicola family has asked me to bring in some business suggestions for you, and we can both work on it for the benefit of both of us.” “I like the sound of that, Mister Burke. Why don't you speak to my assinat and then maybe we can set something up?” Gray asks. “Have a nice day.” “Sir the son of my boss, Mateo De Nicola, he told his father that he is your friend and have met with him a few times.” Gray stops and shakes his head. “That name doesn't ring a single bell to him, but I look forward to mee

Everyone is surprised by her very strange request. “Mrs Lance, surely you are not talking about the disrespectful couple that insulted you when we were entering this place?” William is mesmerized. “Mrs Lance, I don't think you are in your right mind. Perhaps you have had too much wine and it's altering your thoughts.” But Stacy shakes her head and smirks at them. “I'm fully aware of myself and yes, I know what I am requesting.” “Then why have you asked such a request from me, knowing fully well that they offended you?” The anonymous trillionaire asks. “Because, no matter what, she is still my cousin?” Stacy looks out of the glass walls. From here, she can see everyone downstairs partying. Everyone seems to be having such a great time down there, since even though they are not in the VIP section, it's a great privilege to be accepted into the venue in the first place. But not Wendy, she has been sulking and glaring at Stacy from down there. Even with that, Stacy was feeling so b

Alice and the team notices the number of soldiers who walk in are so many that she is immediately threatened by this. “I didn't know that they would be coming here in such a number.” She mutters. “Do you want me to take them out?” William starts to crack his knuckles. “I can do it, I will do it so fast that you won't even see what happens.” “No, let them come.” The anonymous trillionaire says. “Sir, you and I know that they are up to no good.” Alice turns to him. “Yes, and what happens to our plan if we throw everything away now? I will be waiting in the conference room and both of you will lead them in.” The anonymous trillionaire walks away. Alice sighs and runs her hands over her face. She can't stand the military officers, especially after what they did to her boss. “Are you okay?” William asks her. “No, I'm not.” She adjusts her jacket. “I want to bash their faces in, but Mars clearly doesn't want that.” “Well, we can just look forward to the day that he is going to say
