Chapter 32
The Centurion Card of the Griffith Family was limitless.
Grandpa is actually giving it to Elise? This is outrageous! She just got first place in some lousy mathematics competition. Does she deserve this?
However, Jonah ignored him and waved to Elise. “Come here, Ellie.”
She froze for a moment, but she walked over obediently. “Hi Grandpa.”
“Take this, Ellie!” He then placed the card into her hands. “This
is my present for you. I‘m too old to know what young people like nowadays so if you need anything, you
can buy it yourself now.”
Looking at the Centurion Card, Elise knew very well how important this was.
“Grandpa, I can‘t accept this. It‘s too much for me.”
“Silly girl! Nothing is too much. I only know that my girl deserves the best.”
“But Grandpa…
“That‘s enough, Ellie. You should be happy
that you got first place. I already made arrangements to hold a celebration party for you and
everyone will gather to celebrate your success. Apart from that, you can also
invite your friends here so that they can also celebrate with you.”
Danny‘s eyes widened upon seeing how his grandfather was treating Elise. He
wanted to say something, but he could not win against Jonah‘s enthusiasm. In the end, he just pouted
as he vented all his grievances in the group chat.
‘I can‘t take this anymore! Grandpa actually gave that country bumpkin a Centurion Card GTO‘
Jack, who was on a film set shooting a movie, sent a series of voice messages into the chat.
“You were defeated this time around. Does it hurt your pride?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDanny then replied, “I‘m miserable, but I‘m not going to cry over this.”
At that, Jack laughed out loud. “Ha! In the future, you have to
address Elise as your boss, yet you still call her country bumpkin now. You need to change your habits s
oon.”
Matthew also chimed in, “Grandpa
wants to organize a celebration party for her and he invited many established people from different indus
tries. It‘s quite a grand party.”
“See, this is the treatment you get if you are his biological grandchild” Jack replied. “It seems like us brot
hers are adopted by him instead. I wouldn‘t even be that hurt if there
wasn‘t any comparison. By the way, I have some shows to shoot that day, so I‘ll go back later. Do send m

Matthew then murmured, “Alright, what about you? Do you have time to come back?”
Then, he tagged Alexander.
However, Jack said, “Don‘t message him
now. He has been troubled for the past few days. I bet he doesn‘t have time to even look at his phone. I‘ll
tell him myself tomorrow.”
Then, Matthew replied, “Sure.”
In fact, Alexander had already seen the messages and he knew that Elise had gotten first place at the

day had disappeared. Obviously, someone has done something to it so that we can‘t find out about it.”
Cameron reported the results of their investigation to Alexander honestly, but the
latter merely looked out of the French windows without uttering a word.
“We also looked into Jamie‘s side, but he is
keeping quiet. Apart from that, we told him before that we couldn‘t have
any further connections, so we can‘t find anything that is useful from his side.”

At that, Alexander narrowed his eyes slightly. Right now, he could only think of everything that happened
on the day of the car race. If that accident never happened, he might be able to confirm her identity to
see if she was Sue, the one whom he had been looking for.
All the clues are gone now...
“What about the investigation on the brakes?” he asked.
Cameron‘s eyes darkened at the mention of that matter. “We have already investigated
this. Someone did something to your brakes, but that person seemed to have disappeared from the
world without a single trace. I already asked people to find out more about
him in his hometown and I bet we will get some results soon.”
“Alright. After you find him, don‘t alert him. Find out the mastermind
first. Apart from that, let‘s take a break from Sue’s matters.”
Since she doesn‘t want me to find out about her, why do I persist? If we are made for each
other, we will definitely meet again.
“Yes, Young Master Alex. I understand.”
With that, Cameron walked
out of his office respectfully, leaving Alexander alone in the large office. The latter looked at the bright nig
ht lights outside but a part of his heart felt lonely. After some time, he retracted his gaze and
took his car keys before walking out of the room.
After dinner, Elise

call from Cynthia,
“What are you doing, Elise?”
“Homework.”
On the other end, Cynthia thought she misheard. “Since when do you need to do homework?”
“Aunt Cynthia.”
“Alright, my good girl, I‘m at MISS bar. Are you free to accompany me for a drink?”
Elise looked at the time and immediately closed her textbook. “Okay, I‘ll be right there.”
After hanging up, she tidied herself up. Only after making sure that she looked as ugly as usual did she w

Cynthia chuckled in response. “Here‘s to my good Elise. Cheers!”
