Bring Your A Game, Mr

Chapter 78 See You Again Someday

After his reminder, Elise realized that she was indeed a little hungry.

Hence, she took the initiative to say, “I know that there’s a food street here. Let me take you around.”

Alexander murmured in agreement and followed Elise to the food street in Aris. After about a twenty-

minute drive, they arrived at Aris’ landmark commercial street.

The place included a combination of food and shopping, so it was suitable for people to go shop and

enjoy food at the same time.

“What do you want to eat?” Elise asked, then recommended several local snacks. “The shrimp gnocchi,

skewers, casserole, and barbecue meat are all pretty good. Would you like to try them?”

Alexander answered, “Let’s have some casserole.”

However, Elise hesitated. “Their casserole is known for being spicy. Can you handle it?”

“Yes. Let’s give it a try.”

So, Elise took out her mobile phone and searched for the nearest casserole restaurant. When she

walked in with Alexander, the Arisians gave them a warm welcome and led them to the private room on

the second floor.

“What ingredients would you like in the casserole?” Elise asked while referring to the menu.

She listed, “Ground beef, shrimp, duck, portobello mushroom…”

Alexander also said, “Ground beef, shrimp, duck, portobello mushroom…”

The two of them spoke at the same time, and they even mentioned the four same ingredients in unison.

Elise looked up at Alexander, who remarked in surprise, “Miss Sare, I didn’t expect that you and I would

have the same preferences.”

Elise exclaimed, “I know, right! It’s such a coincidence.”

In the end, the two of them ordered two servings of casserole made from those four ingredients. Elise

loved casseroles very much, and she had since she was a child. The casseroles in Aris were simply the

best, so Elise enjoyed it very much.

“Do you want anything to drink? The specialty here is the soy milk,” Elise said, but Alexander didn’t like

soy milk. “I’ll have a can of Coke.”

Without even thinking, Elise rebutted, “Carbonated drinks aren’t healthy. Let’s change it. Why don’t we

get you fruit juice instead?”

But, Alexander was persistent. “Casserole and Coke is the ultimate combination.”

Elise couldn’t out-talk him, so she gave up and ordered a cup of soy milk and a can of Coke. While the

two of them were happily enjoying their meal, two figures appeared on the street, one chasing after the

other while the latter shouted, “Catch the thief!”

When Elise heard the noise, she subconsciously looked out the window and saw a fair-skinned man

chasing a tan-skinned foreigner while yelling, “Catch the thief!” However, the people around them were

all unbothered, and not a single person took the initiative to help. It was as if no one could hear them.

The tan-skinned man was heading their way, so Elise instinctively got up, but Alexander reached out and

held her down by her shoulder. Shooting her a look, he jumped over the railing in front of the window and

landed firmly on the ground. It happened so quickly that Elise didn’t even have time to react as she

watched Alexander stride forward in just a few steps before subduing the thief.

Elise hastily ran down but was stopped by the waiter. In a rush, she took out her purse and handed over

a stack of cash; only then did the waiter let her go. When she walked out, the crowd had already

surrounded the thief that Alexander caught.

The fair-skinned man caught up and managed between breaths, “You wretched thief. How dare you steal

from me!”

The man cursed, then unmercifully extended his foot before kicking the foreigner. Even so, the man held

on tightly to his wallet, unwilling to let go.

“Thank you for your help, kind sir. I’ve called the police, and I believe they’ll be here soon.”

The fair-skinned man spoke to Alexander in their local slang, but Alexander replied in English, “I’m

Cittadelian!”

The Arisian wasn’t expecting this, so he was surprised. “Thank you so much! Who would’ve thought I’d

bump into a fellow Cittadelian!”

While conversing with the man, Alexander glanced at the thief, who was on the ground after being

subdued, thereby noticing that the thief didn’t look frightened at all.

“Hurry up and return my wallet to me. Otherwise, I’ll make you suffer!” said the Arisian as he reached out

to grab the wallet from the foreigner’s hand. Unexpectedly, the man didn’t hesitate in the slightest before

he bit down hard on the Arisian’s hand.

Alexander slightly narrowed his eyes and kicked the man, who ended up lying flat on the ground while

the wallet fell out of his hand. The foreigner didn’t care anymore and simply got up from the ground

before running away. The Arisian wanted to chase after him, but the foreigner ran away so quickly that

he disappeared into the crowd in an instant.

“You should take a look and see if anything’s missing.”

The Cittadelian picked up the wallet and roughly glanced through it. “Thank you all so much. In fact, the

money in this wallet doesn’t matter, but my ID card and passport are in here. If I lose those two things,

going back to Cittadel would be troublesome. The embassy of Aris is located so far away from here, and

it’s also very troublesome to go through all the procedures. So, thank you very much.”

Alexander replied nonchalantly, “It was nothing. Don’t mention it.”

The man then took out a business card and handed it to Alexander. “This is my business card. If you

ever need anything in the future, feel free to contact me.”

After briefly scanning through the business card, Alexander was surprised. “You’re from Northcliff!” In

fact, he was the successor of the famous Hayes Enterprise in Northcliff.

This is such a small world!

Frederick Hayes gave a brief explanation. “My family is doing business in Northcliff, so I’m getting by all

right. If you encounter any difficulties in Northcliff in the future, or if there’s ever a situation where I can be

of use, feel free to get in touch with me.”

Keeping his business card, Alexander said, “I’m Alexander Griffith from Athesea. I believe fate has

brought us together.”

Frederick’s eyes lit up when he heard his name. “Are you Alexander Griffith, the leader of the Griffith

Family in Athesea?”

Alexander was well-known in the industry for his resolute business methods, so his name wasn’t foreign

to Frederick, who didn’t expect to meet the man here today.

“It’s a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Griffith! I’ll definitely visit you when I go to Athesea someday.”

Alexander gave a slight nod. “That’s kind of you, Mr. Hayes.”

As the two were talking, the phone in Frederick’s pocket rang. “Mr. Griffith, I have some business to

attend to, so I’ll take my leave first. I’ll see you again someday.”

“Hope to see you too.”

After sending Frederick off, Elise couldn’t help studying Alexander before saying, “I didn’t expect you to

be so agile, President Griffith.”

He was brave enough to jump from the first floor just like that. One floor was at least three meters high,

yet he wasn’t afraid of injuring his legs.

Coming back to his senses, he answered, “At that moment, I didn’t think much about it and just jumped!

Let’s go back and continue eating our casseroles.”

Elise withdrew her gaze and followed Alexander back upstairs to continue eating. When the two of them

had had their fill, they left the restaurant. To their surprise, as soon as they walked out, they were

surrounded by a group of tan-skinned foreigners.

What was more surprising was that the leader was the foreigner who had just escaped!
