CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE

Next day

About an hour ago, I dropped Madison off at the hospital to visit her sister.

Almost immediately afterward, Dionysus messaged me saying that I was welcome to have lunch at his house, as my other brothers would be there.

However, I was surprised when I arrived and found Christos—who said he was passing through New York—and Odin.

It's not very common for all of us to gather at the same time, especially because both my cousins have families. Furthermore, Christos's main residence is in North Carolina. He rarely comes to New York, and that tells me this meeting was planned.

What the hell is happening?

"It isn't a coincidence that you're all here," I say after embracing them, not wanting to beat around the bush.

Christos smiles. "No, it's not."

I look at Ares, because somehow I know this is related to Madison, but his expression, as always, gives nothing away.

"Let's go outside," Dionysus suggests. "The nanny who's with Joseph is a new hire, and I don't like the idea of her being by the pool with him without my supervision."

We sit at a table in the shade of a tree, and soon a servant comes along to offer us drinks.

"I can’t stay long," I warn, because I've just decided to go pick up Madison from the hospital. She told me she usually spends two hours with her sister and then some time with her niece and nephew. I'm curious to learn more about her family.

"Why not?" Odin asks, but somehow I think he already knows the answer.

"I have a meeting."

"With Madison?" Ares speaks up for the first time.

"What is this? The Spanish Inquisition? Because if you think I believe this meeting was by chance, you don't know me that well."

"It wasn't by chance," Hades confirms. "It's an attempt to stop you from destroying your own life."

"Conversations in code aren't my specialty," I mutter.

"No, they're mine," Odin says, showing an unusually good sense of humor.

"Just tell me what you need," I growl, irritated as hell.

"We have an alternative for your situation with old Gordon."

"I'm not going to break the promise I made to my grandfather."

"What exactly was that?" my older cousin continues. "As far as I know, it was to destroy their entire fortune to avenge your father's death."

"Yes, and to wipe their centuries-old name off the map. That's why I made the deal. There's no other way to bring them down. I've been doing research for years."

"We're buying shares of GordonBank," Odin says.

"What?"

"For many months, we've been buying shares of GordonBank," says Christos.

"That’s not possible,” I retort. “He’s been preventing any sales related to my last name, and everyone knows we're cousins."

"We're using small companies that are part of our conglomerate, mine and Odin's, but that aren't directly linked to us,” Christos explains. “Separately, we don't own enough shares to have the board in the palm of our hands, but when we add our shares together, we're only one percent away from achieving majority ownership. Fifty-one percent. When that happens, we'll create a third company that will have complete control of GordonBank.
