Bring Your A Game, Mr

Chapter 550 Becoming Aggressive

“I wasn’t sure of it before, but when I saw his attitude toward you, I have a rough idea what happened.”

Alexander analyzed the situation, sounding thoughtful. “Claude has probably been hypnotized.”

“Hypnotized?” Elise spun her head and glanced at Claude. “He’s just a doctor who’s only saving lives

and isn’t threatening. What’s the point of hypnotizing him?”

“Leaving the sick untreated is a way of causing destruction as well,” Alexander said calmly.

At first, Elise was stunned, then she gradually understood what he meant by that.

The only person who could perform a surgery on Trevor now was Claude. If he was unwilling, it would

only spell death for Trevor. With a sigh, she wondered if it would be possible to find a hypnotist to undo

the hypnotism on Claude.

Reading her mind, Alexander explained before she said anything, “In hypnotism, every hypnotic master

uses a different technique, and we need to find the person who hypnotized him in the first place in

order to fully undo the hypnotism. If it is forced, the mind of the hypnotized person might be damaged.”

“In other words, if we don’t know who hypnotized Claude back then, he’ll continue to treat us as his

enemies,” Elise concluded helplessly.

“That’s the case, basically,” he replied.

Elise didn’t know whether she should laugh or cry in this situation. “Who would let someone who

regards them as his enemies stick around? Think about it. Life would be chaos, then!”

“But are you okay to let him wander around outside like this?” Alexander asked.

Her heart softened, and she sighed. “Forget it. Let your man guard him, then,” she said, holding her

forehead. Recalling the reminder from Kenneth yesterday, she changed the topic directly. “Recently,

I’ve been too passive, and I plan to create a big ruckus to draw the snake out of its nest. What do you

think?”

“I’ll definitely support all of your decisions.” After that, Alexander chuckled and teased, “Haven’t you

always hated troubles? Why are you taking the initiative to create one now?”

Shrugging, she answered, “It’s true that I don’t want any trouble, but I’ve figured out something. If I

don’t eliminate those people who are making trouble in the dark, there will be no end to this. Like an

endless bushfire, it will reignite with the slightest wind. So, I might as well find the source and rip it out

by the roots. Only then will it solve all my problems at once. Am I right?”

After she finished analyzing seriously, she turned to him and saw that there was an unreadable look in

his gaze as he looked at her.

Although he was wearing a smile, and she could see the love in his eyes, there was also a hint of

surprise in them. It was as though he felt she was not the original Elise.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” she asked, embarrassed.

He grinned, and his thick brows raised. “I’m just thinking: Since when did my Ellie become so

aggressive? The decisiveness you showed when you decided to rip out the roots of this problem made

me think that a woman may not lose to a man.”

Her eyes rolled around guiltily. “Is that so? I didn’t have that feeling. Maybe I just became more mature,

and so my thoughts went a level higher.”

Alexander nodded in agreement. “That’s true. I really like the way you are now. There’s nothing you,

my fiancée, cannot do. Ellie, as long as it’s something you want to do, I’ll get it done for you.”

Pursing her lips, Elise snickered and deliberately put on a serious face as she spoke, sounding

unconvinced. “Who says I need your help? Does it mean that I can’t do anything without you?”

Amused, Alexander chuckled. “I was too abrupt. You’re formidable and incredibly talented. My

existence is just the icing on the cake and can’t be compared to you.”

“It’s good that you know that.” Pleased with the flattery, Elise was delighted for a very long time.

Turning around to look at Claude, she felt a little sorry and discussed with Alexander, “Why don’t we

release the ropes around him? It’s so pitiful to see him like this. He only became this way because he

was hypnotized; he’s not doing it on purpose.”

A sigh escaped Alexander’s lips. “I don’t wish to see this too, but you know that even though you guys

are doctors, you still have countless ways to pull one on others. If he’s released, we don’t know when

he’d give us the slip, and he managed to escape three times previously. Are you sure you want to do

this?”

“Uh…” Elise choked in embarrassment and remembered how Claude drugged the person who was

after him before. In the end, the poor guy had really bad diarrhea.

Indeed, Claude was a monkey which was not easy to catch.

Hurriedly, she changed her mind. “Let’s keep him in a more spacious cage so he can move his arms

and legs. Don’t allow the guard on watch to get close to him with the key on himself. He can’t run away

then.”

“We’ll do as you say.” Alexander nodded lightly and turned to Clement, who was standing at the side.

“Get it done.”

“Got it.” After giving him a polite nod, Clement then picked up the furious and agitated Claude and

headed out.

Just then, Danny happened to enter the room, and seeing that the person who was brought out looked

a little familiar, he asked, “Why did you tie him up?”

“Something cropped up. I’ll explain it to you later,” Alexander explained briefly and stared at the bundle

in his arms. “What are you holding?”

“Oh, I almost forgot.” Placing the things flat, he then handed it to the both of them. “This is the wedding

plan I asked someone to do, and a few wedding dresses designed by Brenden previously. They’re all

collectibles and have yet to be published. He wants you to pick any you like and he’ll immediately start

the production abroad once you’re done.”

Even though Alexander didn’t seem worried that Kenneth was hot on Elise’s heels, Danny, as his

brother, was very worried and wanted to get the wedding done for the both of them as quickly as

possible so that once Elise reached an adult age by law, they could get married immediately. Then,

there would be no need to be afraid of ill-intentioned men who had ideas about Elise.

With a smile, Elise took the papers from him and flipped through the dress designs while saying, “You

guys did a great job and spent so much effort on our wedding. When will we get to attend your

weddings as well?”

“Our weddings?” Danny scratched the back of his head and said with a grin, “There’s no rush because

I’m still young. When I meet someone like you, I’ll raise the white flag and walk into the graveyard

called marriage with peace of mind.”

“If marriage is a graveyard, why are you in a rush to push me into it?” Elise teased casually.

“No, that was a slip of tongue.” Slapping himself, he then said, “That’s just a metaphor. Whether it’s a

graveyard or not depends on whether the people who are walking in together are right for each other.

You and Alex are a match made in heaven. No matter when you two get married, it will only get better

and better. Even if you don’t trust me, you should trust Alex!”

While speaking, he kept staring at Elise’s face, worried that the thing he said earlier might make her

change her mind and make her not want to get married anymore.

However, the more a person was afraid of something, the faster it was bound to happen.

“The designs by Brenden are great.” After browsing through, she closed the file and pursed her lips,

thinking about something else absent-mindedly.

Noticing the change in her, Alexander couldn’t help but feel a tiny trace of unease in his heart.

The moment Elise lifted her head and their eyes met, they seemed to have confirmed something.

I probably won’t get to marry her, he thought.

Maybe she wouldn’t be able to marry him immediately, but she didn’t know how to say it.
