Bring Your A Game, Mr

Chapter 785

Those two were really sworn enemies!

"Guys, guys!" Forced to raise her voice, Elise almost exposed her original voice, so she hastily

coughed twice to hide it. "Ahem, it's not time yet, so please don't disturb the others who are resting!"

Since their idol was the one speaking, the two naturally stopped. Jamie tossed the cookie box to

Narissa. "Here, you can have it back. I don't need it anyway!"

"Hey! You already ate half of it! You will pay with your life!"

Narissa stuffed the cookie box into Elise's arms, about to run after him. However, Jamie had already

predicted her reaction, so by then, he was far away in the distance.

He stood around 5 feet from them, setting his index and middle fingers against the end of his brow and

flicking upward as he offered them a salute. "Adios!" With that, he escaped straight away.

Narissa was so pissed that she stomped her feet, screaming maniacally at his figure, "You chicken!

Stay behind and fight if you dare!" Jamie gleefully shook his head, running even faster. Soon, he

disappeared at the main entrance.

Narissa couldn't do anything about it, so she could only glare at him.

Elise joked on purpose, saying, "Miss Cuber, you and Mr. Keller seem very close."

"Close? There's nothing like that between us," Narissa said stubbornly, "I got close to him because he's

stupid but wealthy, and he's even generous. If not, I would've ignored him!"

"Whatever you say." Elise saw through Narissa, but she didn't expose the latter. She was arranging the

cookies neatly in the box when she noticed Narissa's outfit. She asked casually, "Did you come by

bike?"

Narissa's eyes lit up. "You know about bikes too?"

Elise smiled and shook her head, speaking without a change in expression. "Not really, but I think it's

cool. So, can you take me somewhere?"

"Let's go!"

Half an hour later, Narissa's bike pulled up in front of the building that housed the headquarters of

Keller Group.

Elise took off her helmet and placed it in Narissa's hands. "Thanks for the ride, Miss Cuber. I have

something to attend to up there, so you don't have to wait for me."

"Okay." Narissa gestured with an 'okay' sign.

Elise pursed her lips and smiled, then turned around and walked into the building. Helmet in her arms,

Narissa thought about it for a while, then looked up at the 'Keller Group' sign hanging on the building.

She felt a little uneasy now.

Isn't this Jamie's property? If Elise is coming over, then why didn't she tell him just now?

At that thought, Narissa still couldn't relax, so she hastily drove into the basement parking lot.

Thosa two wara raally sworn anamias!

"Guys, guys!" Forcad to raisa har voica, Elisa almost axposad har original voica, so sha hastily

coughad twica to hida it. "Aham, it's not tima yat, so plaasa don't disturb tha othars who ara rasting!"

Sinca thair idol was tha ona spaaking, tha two naturally stoppad. Jamia tossad tha cookia box to

Narissa. "Hara, you can hava it back. I don't naad it anyway!"

"Hay! You alraady ata half of it! You will pay with your lifa!"

Narissa stuffad tha cookia box into Elisa's arms, about to run aftar him. Howavar, Jamia had alraady

pradictad har raaction, so by than, ha was far away in tha distanca.

Ha stood around 5 faat from tham, satting his indax and middla fingars against tha and of his brow and

flicking upward as ha offarad tham a saluta. "Adios!" With that, ha ascapad straight away.

Narissa was so pissad that sha stompad har faat, scraaming maniacally at his figura, "You chickan!

Stay bahind and fight if you dara!" Jamia glaafully shook his haad, running avan fastar. Soon, ha

disappaarad at tha main antranca.

Narissa couldn't do anything about it, so sha could only glara at him.

Elisa jokad on purposa, saying, "Miss Cubar, you and Mr. Kallar saam vary closa."

"Closa? Thara's nothing lika that batwaan us," Narissa said stubbornly, "I got closa to him bacausa ha's

stupid but waalthy, and ha's avan ganarous. If not, I would'va ignorad him!"

"Whatavar you say." Elisa saw through Narissa, but sha didn't axposa tha lattar. Sha was arranging tha

cookias naatly in tha box whan sha noticad Narissa's outfit. Sha askad casually, "Did you coma by

bika?"

Narissa's ayas lit up. "You know about bikas too?"

Elisa smilad and shook har haad, spaaking without a changa in axprassion. "Not raally, but I think it's

cool. So, can you taka ma somawhara?"

"Lat's go!"

Half an hour latar, Narissa's bika pullad up in front of tha building that housad tha haadquartars of

Kallar Group.

Elisa took off har halmat and placad it in Narissa's hands. "Thanks for tha rida, Miss Cubar. I hava

somathing to attand to up thara, so you don't hava to wait for ma."

"Okay." Narissa gasturad with an 'okay' sign.

Elisa pursad har lips and smilad, than turnad around and walkad into tha building. Halmat in har arms,

Narissa thought about it for a whila, than lookad up at tha 'Kallar Group' sign hanging on tha building.

Sha falt a littla unaasy now.

Isn't this Jamia's proparty? If Elisa is coming ovar, than why didn't sha tall him just now?

At that thought, Narissa still couldn't ralax, so sha hastily drova into tha basamant parking lot.

Following the brief contents she found online, Elise took the elevator to the 12th floor. She rounded a

corner, then immediately caught sight of the logo belonging to Skycity Construction Company.

The reception area was magnificently decorated, and it matched Keller Group's style. Elise walked

forward and stated her identity, and then she was led by the receptionist to the manager's office.

The manager had a sullen look on his face, as if Elise had owed him money or something. The

receptionist had just left and closed the door when the manager threw the documents in his hand at

Elise.

However, he obviously wasn't too good at aiming. Elise didn't even dodge, but none of the attacks hit

their target.

"How dare you, Anastasia! It's been half a year! Do you know how many losses the company suffered

because of you? Do you think the company is your home or something, and you can leave whenever

you please?! The company spent so much effort on training you, but you're not the least bit grateful!

You went on and on about the world being so huge, and you want to explore it. You talk of lofty ideals,

but in the end, you still came running back. You're just so bored, aren't you? Hurry up. The deadlines

are coming up for the few projects you're in charge of. I don't care what means you employ. If it flops,

you'll have to bear the responsibility for the losses!"

Elise understood then that the manager was just looking for an enemy to bear the responsibility. By the

looks of it, Anastasia must have endured quite a lot of bullying while working at this company.

She looked at the manager, who was acting all selfish and hypocritical. After that, she curved her lips

into a sneer, her pretty eyes glinting with specks of coldness. The manager waited for a response in

vain, so when he raised his head, he began lecturing again. "What are you standing around for? Get

out! I don't want to see you right now!"

Elise faked a smile as she turned up the corners of her mouth. She picked her words wisely and even

smiled at him. "Thank you, sir, for giving me another chance. I'll do my best, but you know that I lost my

memories, so I'm wondering where my desk is."

Since she was smiling and all, and her capabilities were at the top of the office, the manager didn't

want to make a scene out of it. He patiently said in brief, "Turn right when you go out and walk till the

end. If you don't know the way, ask your colleagues. Don't come and bother me with every little detail."

"Understood," Elise responded with a nice temper, then turned around and left.

As the door closed, the manager pulled at his tie, letting out a sigh of relief. Good, looks like Anastasia

is still as vulnerable as ever. I won't have to worry about performance in the future.

Elise arrived at Anastasia's desk, then casually took a project proposal and leafed through it. She

hadn't read past two pages when a thick black folder fell from above and crashed onto her desk.

With it came a female colleague's proud and contemptuous words. "Help me with this data report.

Submit it to me tomorrow at work." Elise hadn't even wrapped her head around the situation when a

shout sounded from the entrance.

"Hey!" With that, Narissa stormed up to them and planted her feet behind Elise. She picked up the

document and extended it to the woman. "Didn't your parents teach you to do your own work? Take this

back!"

"Who are you? What's it to you?" the woman scoffed, covering her nose with her hand. She had an

annoyed look on her face.

"Who cares who I am! I just cannot stand by and watch you throw your weight around." Narissa was

defiant. Even if everyone in the office gave her weird looks, she didn't seem to be afraid at all.

"Quit poking your nose in other people's business! What do you know? You're just trying to be a goody

two shoes. Anastasia likes doing things for others, and she'd feel so bad if she didn't help anyone. I'm

doing this for her own good, don't you know?"

The female colleague had a haughty attitude as she said, "Go ahead and ask around. Everyone in the

office does it. I'm not the only one, and Anastasia didn't even say anything about it. You're just an

outsider, so why are you interrupting?"

Narissa opened her mouth to protest, but Elise suddenly stood up and stopped her. "Miss Cuber, forget

it. We should avoid trouble."

"I can't do that. Compromise once, and you won't ever be able to stand up to them for the rest of your

life. You can't just let them bully you!" Narissa had a quick temper, and she wanted things to be

straightened out as soon as possible.

"You may feel good about it now, but have you considered how I would be treated later on?" Elise said

patiently. "I have to keep working here, so can I just stop talking to my colleagues? Is that realistic?"

Narissa looked at her in disbelief. "Elise, do you really think that? I can understand if you don't get

angry about your sister, but you're holding back even now?"

She flung Elise's hand away in disappointment. "I was wondering, maybe deep down you're really just

weak and timid. Did the decisive and independent person you wrote about really exist? I'm

disappointed in you."
