Bring Your A Game, Mr

Chapter 894

"You brat. What nonsense are you talking about? We're all about to become a family, so she's not an

outsider." Madeline gave Danny another slap on the back.

"Ouch!" With a pained expression, he rubbed his sore spot while complaining, "You weren't like this

when Elise married into our family."

That made Madeline speechless. She was silent for a bit before speaking with a heavy heart, "It was

my first time being a mother-in-law and I've gone overboard when dealing with many things. If I had

known Alexander would turn into such a scumbag, I would've been nicer to Elise back then. Thinking

about it now, I feel very sorry for her."

"If she comes back in the future, will you still make things difficult for her?" asked Danny.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Madeline returned to being serious immediately and pointed at

his nose. "I'm telling you, Ariel is a nice woman, so you'd better behave nicely later. Otherwise, I'll—" As

she spoke, she made a gesture as if she were about to hit him.

Pretending to dodge humbly, Danny continued to mess with her. "No way. I think we shouldn't let them

have what they want!"

Slap! Another slap on the face was delivered by Madeline. "You don't want to let her have her way, then

what? I should let you mess around outside, huh? I'm warning you, Danny Griffith. Besides marrying a

woman and having children, you have no other choice in this lifetime!"

I will never agree to you marrying Jamie!

While rubbing his numb face, he smacked his lips in aggravation. "You actually slapped me. Am I not

your son?"

Laughing, she responded, "If you marry Ariel, you are my son, but if she runs away, I won't recognize

you as mine anymore."

"And you say you're my mother!" Danny pretended to be jealous and snorted. Then, he got up and left

the room.

"Where are you going?" she asked.

"To see if your beloved daughter-in-law has successfully picked up her mother!"

"You brat!"

Fifteen minutes later, Ariel helped her mother into the VIP private room and nervously introduced

everyone. "Mr. and Mrs. Griffith, this is my mom. Mrs. Whitney, this is Mr. Griffith and Mrs. Griffith."

"Welcome! Please have a seat!" Madeline warmly welcomed Rebecca. "Oh, right. Hey, manager. You

can start serving the dishes now! The traffic must've been horrible, hasn't it? Why don't I get them to

serve a pot of tea? To freshen up a little."

Initially stunned, Rebecca soon returned a smile and shook her head. "There's no need for that. Just let

them serve the food as usual."

Knowing that her conditions were unreasonable, she had prepared herself for a verbal fight, but she

still felt shocked when she saw the Griffiths being so welcoming.

While waiting for the dishes to be served, Ariel felt as if she was sitting on pins and needles. This was

because she knew that Madeline was known for being difficult to deal with while Rebecca was an

aggressive person. Therefore, she could not imagine the scene if those two women started quarreling.

Thinking of that, she felt restless until Danny enveloped her hands in his big hands. At that moment,

she turned to look in his direction and saw him closing his eyes. She finally calmed down after seeing

his reassuring gaze.

Soon, all the dishes were served at the table and Madeline raised her glass. "This first toast goes to

our children. I hope they have mutual affinity and a long-lasting relationship."

Once she said that the other three cooperated and raised their glasses, except for Rebecca. Instantly,

the atmosphere became awkward.

"Mom," Ariel reminded her. Although she did not agree with this marriage, she should show the guests

some respect at the very least. However, she ignored Ariel's words and continued sitting there with an

unruly and arrogant expression.

Had this been in the past, Madeline would have flipped the table and left at this point. Since it was her

son's fault this time around, she could only hold in her grievances and continue. After holding her glass

midair for half a minute, she withdrew her hand with an awkward smile while trying to ease the

situation. "Mrs. Whitney, you must've just gotten off the plane and are still feeling jet-lagged. It's alright.

Let's start eating so that we can end sooner and let the children send you back to your hotel to rest. We

can continue this discussion after you have a good rest."

"There's no need for so much trouble." Rebecca did not show the slightest respect for Madeline and

expressed herself clearly, "Doesn't your son want to marry my daughter? Sure, but your son has to

transfer all of his assets to my daughter." Once she said that she crossed her hands before her chest

and waited for things to get interesting.

However, Madeline did not respond immediately after putting down her glass; instead, she composed

herself and suppressed the humiliation she felt before giving a nod. "Alright."

She agreed.

Obviously, her compromise was completely out of Rebecca's expectations, prompting her to freeze as

she was at a loss for words for a moment there.

Even Ariel was surprised by Madeline's answer and she stared at Danny while her eyes widened in

disbelief. How did he do it?

On the other hand, he proudly raised his chin and one of his eyebrows was raised so high that it

seemed like it was almost touching the sky. Aren't I awesome? Admire me, woman!

A long while later, Rebecca finally came back to her senses and straightened up her posture. With one

hand on the table, she continued to probe the Griffiths to see how much they could compromise. "The

children Danny and Ariel give birth to must also have Whitney as their last name!"

"Sure." Madeline willingly agreed with a smile on her face.

"Pfft. Cough… Cough…" Adam, who was beside her, almost choked on his drink and carefully wiped

his hands with a napkin while looking at her with a strange gaze. Is this still my unreasonable wife?

When has she become so open-minded? Is this an illusion?

While looking around, Adam pinched the back of Madeline's hand without her knowledge. "Ouch!" She

felt the pain and instantly rolled her eyes. "What are you doing?"

That gave him quite a shock and he quickly shivered. "N-Nothing. It's just a mosquito…"

"You're the mosquito!"

After berating her husband, Madeline turned to Rebecca and her voice became gentle and soft. Also,

since they had agreed to such a strange request, that naturally left Rebecca at a loss for words.

Clearing her throat, she straightened her body once again before picking up her glass to raise it upon

standing up. Then, her cold attitude immediately changed from arrogance to melancholic and gentle.

"Seeing that Mrs. Griffith has agreed to all of my terms, which shows the care and respect your family

has for my daughter, I believe that you'll treat her very well. I'll finish this glass as my punishment."

Rebecca was quick to down an entire glass of red wine.

Just like that, Danny and Ariel's wedding was finalized.

…

Ten days later, Wendy brought Brendan to the prince and princess' residence to show them the latest

designs. However, Prince Caleb did not look a least bit interested. "If they're the same work from the

designer as last time, I suggest you head home earlier."

"Your Highness, you've misunderstood me. The designer this time around has the same teacher as

Amy, so I think you and Your Highnesses will like them."
