Bring Your A Game, Mr

Chapter 640

Elise originally planned to leave via the north exit. However, she saw several men aggressively walking

in together before she could even reach the exit. They seemed to be the group of men chasing behind

her just now.

She had no choice but to turn around and head for the south exit instead since she prioritized her

safety. However, she suddenly saw a familiar figure walking toward her when she walked past two

corners. It was Alexander!

She couldn't help increasing her speed as she thought she was about to be rescued from her situation.

Unfortunately, to her dismay, she noticed something to Alexander's right. Many people carrying sticks

and wearing headscarves with the word 'Protest' on their heads were also heading this way and both

parties were about to collide with each other.

If those people recognize him, they will definitely attack him! But, on the other hand, public opinion will

destroy his company if he fights back against the victims' families. She paused mid-step and stood

frozen in place. Meanwhile, the group of people behind her gradually closed in on her, and whispered

among themselves. "Look! That's Alexander Griffith over there, right?"

Her breath stopped at those words before her eyes lit up suddenly. I have an idea!

She increased her speed and approached Alexander. Before he could realize what was going on, she

suddenly hooked her arm around his neck and pulled him close to her.

Alexander abruptly turned to the side and saw that the other party was dressed in a punk attire with a

hip-hop style. Thus, his expression darkened thereafter as he moved to break free from her grip.

However, before he could exert his strength, he heard the other person flirting with him. "Handsome Mr.

Broker, it's not like I can't buy that house of yours, so why don't you accompany me to the hotel for a

good time?"

Alexander felt both embarrassed and annoyed after he was harassed out of nowhere. What is wrong

with women nowadays?! How shameless and immoral!

He instinctively tried to break free from the other party, but the realization struck him as soon as he

moved. This voice… Who else can it be but Ellie? Hence, he immediately calmed down and played

along with her act. "That's not good. How will I explain myself if my wife learns about this?"

Hm? What kind of husband-cheating-on-wife scenario is this? His words had amused Elise so much

that she nearly failed to resist her laughter. Then, after letting out a slight dry cough, she continued with

the act. "If neither one of us spill the beans, how will your wife know? It's settled, then. The hotel next

door seems lovely. Let's go! We'll head there right now!"

After saying that, she forcefully grabbed him by the neck and dragged him toward the door.

The men chasing behind Elise earlier had initially wanted to stop Alexander to question him carefully.

After listening to the conversation between Alexander and Elise, one of the men gave a mean snicker.

"What Alexander Griffith? That's just a real estate broker. Don't interfere with his lucky encounter!

Besides, Brad mentioned that Alexander Griffith's fiancée is somewhere in this place. Stop wasting

time, or she'll run away again!"

As soon as the words left his mouth, that group of people quickly spread out and headed deeper to

continue their search.

Although Elise and Alexander were flirting with each other on the surface, they never allowed their

guards to be lowered. It was not until they were sure that the other party was no longer suspicious that

they finally breathed in relief.

Danny entered from outside only to see Alexander being restrained by a cool and dashing girl.

"Hey, beautiful. Gentlemen should only fight with their words, not their fists. Let go of my brother. If not,

I'll kneel and start begging you." His words had a tough edge to it.

In any case, wasn't that the truth? Now that he was against a woman that even Alexander could not

defeat, Danny could only kneel down and beg for mercy. If I can't win in a fight, then I'll just make them

terribly uncomfortable! I don't believe that any woman can remain unmoved when a man kneels and

weeps so easily!

Alexander's expression became disdainful as he heard Danny's declaration. "Don't tell people that you

are my younger brother."

"What the hell, Alex?! I am sacrificing myself to save you!" Danny exclaimed righteously.

"Then, please sacrifice yourself right now. If you live any longer, I'll be too embarrassed to look

anybody in the eye again." Alexander easily removed himself from Elise's grip and straightened his

posture.

"You… What? Weren't you being held against your will?" Danny looked confused.

A resigned Elise removed her sunglasses. "Don't claim that you know me either."

"Elise?!" He looked her up and down, looking so shocked that his mouth gaped. "These clothes are

way too cool!"

"Stop talking nonsense," Alexander reminded Danny. "They recognized you. I don't want to run into

those people again, so we need to leave as soon as possible!"

"Oh! Right! Right!" Danny recalled that he asked the security guard to park his car, so he hurriedly ran

over to stop the man who was about to get into the car.

"Wait!" Danny pulled the man out of the car. "There's no need for that anymore. I need the car right now

as I'm leaving!"

"Huh? You can leave, but I'm not going to refund your money!" the security guard nervously responded.

"You don't need to refund the money. Just leave." Danny leaned against the door and gasped for

breath before he quickly entered the car to turn the vehicle around.

As soon as Alexander and Elise came out of the building and entered the car, Danny abruptly floored

the accelerator and drove off speedily. It wasn't until he drove for several kilometers and confirmed that

nobody was chasing them that he finally released the accelerator to reduce the speed.

"How dangerous." He patted his chest and continued in a thankful tone, "Thank goodness you're fine,

Elise. Otherwise, Alex might have torn me apart, believe it or not."

"I can tear you apart right now." Alexander's expression was cold. "Drive."

After being the recipient of the cold shoulder, Danny could only focus on being the driver.

Elise listened to their conversation as she felt a little uncomfortable and guilty at the same time. In any

case, she did not dare to look at Alexander.

"Ellie." His large hand suddenly stretched out, completely wrapping her hand in his palm. His voice was

so gentle that it was heart-wrenching.

She lowered her head and responded softly, "Yeah?"

Danny cocked his ears and eavesdropped on their conversation. When he heard them, he could not

help but glance at the two of them through the rearview mirror.

This is too formal! With the way you two are going, when will I finally become an uncle!? Fine, I might

have gotten a little ahead of myself, but Alex, can't you man up a little!? Didn't Jack's drama teach you

anything? First, cuddle them. Next, hug them. Lastly, act shamelessly! The girl will surely melt inside!

This is killing me!

He floored the accelerator once more in his anxiety and accidentally sped up without noticing. The

traffic police followed closely behind him, but he was only focused on watching what was happening in

the rearview mirror while driving, so he didn't notice the cops behind him.

Alexander finally couldn't hold back anymore. Then, he turned sideways to hug Elise and pressed her

ear to his chest so that she could feel his heartbeat.

"Do you hear that?" His voice sounded slightly choked. "My heart says it misses you. It misses you very

much."

Elise breathed in the familiar scent coming from his body. Then, her eyes became red-rimmed and

teary.

She had hidden some people and some things so deeply within her heart that she believed she had

healed from those wounds as long as she did not think about it. However, it was not until she thought

about it again that she realized just how turbulent her repressed longing was.

She had always believed that she was not an emotional person, but she still broke down in tears at this

moment.

When Alexander heard her sobbing, his heart clenched even tighter in pain and he pulled her closer

into his embrace.

She finally couldn't hold back any longer and returned his hug, after which the two of them held each

other tightly.

Danny was so excited that he slammed his foot on the brakes. The car slid for some distance and

came to an abrupt halt in the middle of the road.

Following behind was the traffic police officer whose eyes widened in shock. Unfortunately for him, he

had slammed the brakes a little too late and crashed into the back of Danny's car. Thus, the office was

thrown into the air and landed on the windshield.

Danny jumped in fright and afterward engaged in an 'affectionate stare' with the officer.
