Bring Your A Game Mr Chapter 83

Happy Birthday, Alexander Griffith!

After Elise ran out of the restaurant, she stopped a taxi right by the side of the road. After getting in the car, she breathed a sigh of relief.

“Damn. That was scary. What the hell happened there?” Elise muttered to herself. Why did Matthew Griffith confess to me all of a sudden?

Elise subconsciously brought out her phone and looked at her face while thinking that she looked extremely ugly!

Whenever ordinary men saw her face, they couldn’t wait to run away immediately—who would fall for an ugly girl like her? Moreover, one could feel whether one truly liked someone or not. Although Matthew said that he liked her just now, she could not feel that kind of affection at all, and she also felt no such feelings toward Matthew, so she simply left.

The taxi steadily halted to a stop at the Griffith Residence. After Elise paid the driver, she opened the door and got out of the car. She was just walking into the yard when she happened to bump into Alexander, who also just got home. When he saw her worried expression, Alexander initiated the conversation and asked, “What happened to you? You look like you’ve lost your soul.”

Elise raised her eyes and shook her head. “N-Nothing. I’m fine.”

Alexander was a little unconvinced, but he didn’t dig any further. The two entered the door one after the other and went back to their respective rooms.

Elise locked the door and took a deep breath. Although she rejected Matthew just now, it would be quite uncomfortable to live under the same roof in the future. After all, they would see each other

everyday in the house no matter what.

Elise was feeling a little helpless. As she sat on her chair, she received a message from Alexander. ‘Miss Sare, are you there?’

Elise looked at the notification. On weekdays, Alexander usually comes back late because he’s busy with company affairs, but he came back early today. Could it be to learn Arisian?

When Elise thought of this possibility, her mouth twitched slightly as she typed a reply. ‘Yes. Get ready. We’ll start the class in five minutes.’

After sending the message, Elise hurriedly took out an explanation of the basic units of Arisian that she had already prepared. After she was ready, she began teaching. Elise started from the most basic vocabulary, and she taught very well and thoroughly. Almost every detail was explained in depth, and Alexander, who was next door, also listened carefully while taking notes on almost every vocabulary.

An hour soon ended. After class, Elise stretched. At the same time, she couldn’t help but feel that being a teacher really wasn’t an easy task!

She got up and brought her cup with her to go downstairs. Then, she turned into the kitchen to pour herself a cup of milk, but as she turned the corner, she happened to bump into Matthew, who had just returned. Seeing him, Elise almost choked from the surprise. Pretending that she didn’t see him, she planned to leave just like that, but she was unabashedly pulled by Matthew by her arm. “Do you really dislike seeing me?”

Elise hurriedly struggled. “What are you doing? Let me go!”

“Elise, I’m serious.” Matthew’s tone contained a hint of helplessness. “I’m not joking with you, okay? I really like you. Can you reconsider your decision? Please?”

Elise’s brows furrowed. “I’ve already said it clearly. I don’t like you. I really hope you stop saying such things again.” She then withdrew her hand violently from his grip and took a few steps back. “I’m sorry!”

Elise was about to leave, but Matthew was not reconciled. “Did you reject me because you fell in love with someone else?”

For the first time, Elise felt that Matthew was being unreasonable. “I’m sorry, but this is my private matter, so I really don’t see any need to explain myself to you.”

Matthew stared at her. “You only need to answer me yes or no.”

Just as Elise was about to speak, she glanced from the corner of her eyes and saw a figure, only to see Alexander standing at the corner at some point of their conversation. Matthew, too, saw Alexander, and froze in place.

Elise was relieved and walked away. After she left, there was only Matthew and Alexander left in the kitchen. Alexander took the cup and poured a glass of water, as if nothing had happened. After drinking, he finally said calmly, “It seems that you have a crush on that girl.”

Matthew replied emotionlessly, “Alex, have you started to care about my matters too?”

Alexander looked back at him. “I don’t care about you. However, I just want to remind you to not mess with her—she is not someone you can easily mess around with.”

Matthew chuckled. “Alex, you don’t have the final say on who she belongs to—it’s still not certain who will get her in the end.”

Alexander’s eyes narrowed slightly. “It seems that you are determined to win.”

Matthew tugged at the corner of his clothes and said, “Don’t worry, Alex. I will definitely not disappoint you.”

After finishing speaking, Matthew walked away. Alexander’s eyes sank, and a dangerous aura flashed through the bottom of his eyes.

Early the next morning, Alexander’s vision was blocked by Danny the moment he woke. “Good morning, Alex!”

Alexander was a little surprised. “Why did you get up so early today?”

Danny smiled. “It’s all because of you, Alex.”

Alexander flashed a hint of doubt while watching Danny take an exquisite small box out of nowhere. “Alex, happy birthday!”

After such a reminder from Danny, he finally remembered that today was his birthday!

“Alex, take a look! This is a birthday present that I have carefully chosen out for you for a long time— see if you like it,” Danny said expectantly. Under his gaze, Alexander opened up the gift, only to see a car key lying inside. “Alex, it’s your favorite car model. I got you the latest one.”

Alexander grinned in a seemingly good mood. “Thanks, man.”

The pressure in Danny’s heart was finally released as he saw Alexander smile. “As long as you like it, my brother.”

Immediately afterward, Jack also came over. “Happy birthday, Alex.”

Danny hurriedly leaned over. “Where’s your gift? You can’t just say ‘happy birthday’ and expect to get away with it.”

Jack smiled mysteriously. “Don’t worry. The gift will be delivered on time in the evening.”

Danny patted him on the shoulder. “Wow. Look at you, trying to be all mysterious.”

The three went downstairs while talking and laughing. After a while, Elise also came down. Danny couldn’t help but remind her, “Today is Alex’s birthday. Did you prepare anything for him?”

Hearing that, Elise felt her heart drop. She had totally forgotten about it.

Danny seemed to have noticed it and quickly whispered in her ears, “It’s okay if you didn’t prepare anything. Anyway, our family will prepare a birthday party for Alex at night, and you can give him the gift then.”

Elise quickly answered, “I see. Sure!”

“Let’s go. I’ll take you to campus,” Alexander said, and Elise hurriedly followed. After getting in the car, the two of them didn’t speak until they arrived at her university. Before she got out of the car, Elise finally managed to say, “Happy birthday, Alex Griffith.”

Alexander looked at her and said softly, “Thank you. Study hard and pay attention in class.”

Elise waved at him and walked into campus. As she walked into the classroom, she clearly felt that the atmosphere in the classroom was a little different today. The whole class looked at her with scrutiny, curiosity, and envy. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

Confused, Elise sat on her seat. At this moment, Samantha and Riley came up side by side. “Elise!”

Elise was startled when the two of them called out her name at the same time. “Goodness gracious! What’s wrong?”

Samantha couldn’t hold back. “Congratulations!”

Riley chimed in, “Yes. Congratulations!”

Elise was confused. “What am I being congratulated for?”
