Bring Your A Game, Mr

Chapter 42 Hand Her Over?

“My personal assistant can’t make it on short notice, so I’ll need your help.”

“Are you asking me to act as your personal assistant?” an uncertain Elise asked again.

Alexander responded with a grunt and replied, “I’m sorry to bother you.”

At that point, she couldn’t think of any reason to reject him. Furthermore, she recalled the help he

previously gave during the Mathematics Olympiad and naturally agreed to him. Then, she started to flick

through the documents in her hands to study them.

Shortly after that, the car came to a halt in front of a five-star hotel in town. She then followed behind him

as they entered the place.

While they were inside the elevator, she took a look at herself in the mirror and instinctively adjusted the

black-rimmed spectacles on the bridge of her nose. However, soon after that, he turned around and

scrutinized her appearance before he noted, “You should spend some time making yourself presentable

next time. After all, good looks can be an advantage to females.”

Elise was about to rebuke Alexander, but she only stifled her words as the elevator doors had suddenly

opened. Nonetheless, she glared at his back and muttered, “Well, if you think that I’m not presentable,

then you should seek help from someone else.”

“What are you waiting for? Hurry up and get over here.”

In response, she unwillingly headed toward him before the two of them entered a large private room. As

soon as he entered the room, the other party instantly greeted him with enthusiasm, “Mr. Griffith, it’s

great to meet you.”

Meanwhile, Alexander made a slight gesture and lightly shook the person’s hand. “Mr. Sylvester, thanks

for waiting.”

Mr. Sylvester smiled. “I didn’t wait for too long either as I arrived not long ago.” As he said that, he shifted

his gaze toward Elise, but it was a brief glance before he shifted his gaze. Obviously, one could sense

that he wasn’t exceptionally pleased with how she looked.

Nonetheless, she was quite indifferent to his reaction and followed Alexander’s footsteps before she took

a seat by his side.

“Mr. Griffith, who’s this lady here?” Mr. Ford from Eureka Corporation couldn’t help but question.

Alexander briefly introduced, “This is my personal assistant, Miss Sinclair.”

Elise tilted her head to greet them. “Mr. Sylvester, Mr. Ford, nice to meet you.”

“Oh. So, she’s your personal assistant, but she looks underaged,” Mr. Ford exclaimed jovially as he

blatantly scrutinized her. Meanwhile, she felt quite uncomfortable with the way he looked at her.

However, as she had naturally agreed to help Alexander, she didn’t reveal a hint of displeasure but

responded, “Mr. Ford, you must be kidding. I’ve already graduated from university.”

Although Elise was merely stating the truth, it was evident that everyone present—including Alexander—

didn’t believe her words. Despite that, none of them made it known.

“Mr. Griffith, let’s discuss the contract.” Mr. Sylvester signaled for his secretary to hand the document that

they had brought over. Everyone wore a solemn look as they started to talk about work.

Elise performed her job quite well as Alexander’s personal assistant and she managed to handle all of

the questions directed toward her by the other party. She was exceptionally capable at her job and was

even the epitome of a professional from the corporate world, which was a surprise to Alexander.

Finally, their food was served at a time when they were almost done with their discussion.

“Waiter, could you get me the wine that I have stored with you guys?” Mr. Sylvester asked generously

and turned to Alexander with a smile. “Mr. Griffith, let’s confirm the contract terms. I’ll ask the legal team

to draft the contract once I head back and we can sign it after that.”

Alexander responded, “Sure. Thanks for all the hard work.”

Mr. Sylvester replied humbly, “It’s nothing. Thanks for giving me the chance and I’ll make sure we won’t

disappoint you. I hope we can work well together.” As soon as he said that, he raised his glass of wine to

propose a toast and downed the contents.

As for Elise, upon noticing that the contract was basically a sealed deal, she heaved a sigh of relief. She

was also ravenous, so she focused on her meal and even enjoyed it. After a few rounds of toasts, it was

only natural for everyone to consume some alcohol. Alexander then rose to his full height to head to the

washroom.

As soon as Mr. Ford from Eureka Corporation noticed Alexander’s absence, he became much more

emboldened, especially when he had consumed alcohol. He instantly stumbled over to Elise with a glass

of wine in his hand. “Hey, Miss Sinclair, have a drink with me.”

Mr. Ford’s breath reeked of stale alcohol, which caused her to frown uncomfortably.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Ford. I don’t normally drink alcohol.” His expression darkened as Elise rejected his

request. “Just do as you’re told and drink this! Stop giving me all sorts of excuses. Do you know that I

can get Mr. Griffith to fire you just by asking him to do so?”

Subsequently, Mr. Ford forcefully filled her glass with wine. Meanwhile, Mr. Sylvester, who was by the

side, feigned ignorance. After all, to the likes of them, she was a mere personal assistant. Furthermore,
