Bring Your A Game, Mr novel Chapter 14

Danny was still in disbelief of Elise’s strong capability as he watched her receive the prize onstage. She clearly told him that she didn’t know much!

Has she been intentionally hiding her true talents?!

When the never-ending award ceremony finally concluded, Elise felt sore all over; she had to stand on the stage and listen to the principal’s concluding remarks after her speech. It lasted as long as an hour, and now her legs were already numb.

Danny went up to her with a bunch of Math Olympiad questions to give her a challenge. “Try and solve these if you can!”

 

Elise lazily took the papers and started writing down her answers after just a glance at the questions.

 

Danny studied her solutions and steps—she’d scored full marks for every one of them, and some of her solutions were even more efficient than the model answers given.

Danny was shocked, speechless. Pointing at one of the questions, he asked, “This was the final question of the Math Olympiad earlier. Why didn’t you do it when you clearly know how to?”

 

Elise simply didn’t solve it to purposefully lose some marks, so she didn’t even bother skimming through the question on the last page.

“I didn’t have time to do it.” Elise decided to brush it off lightly.

 

Deep inside, Danny held Elise in awe, but he didn’t let it show on the surface. He said, “I’ll be as good as you in no time once I get serious, so don’t you start thinking you’re all that.”

On the other hand, Jonah was overjoyed after watching the award ceremony. “You’ve made our family proud, Elise!”

Elise could only smile awkwardly in response.

“In that case, you can be Danny’s tutor and give him some extra lessons.”

“I don’t have anything against it—as long as Danny’s willing to have me as his tutor, that is.” Elise gave Danny the last say.

Danny said confidently, “I can definitely do well if I start learning seriously, Grandpa.”

“I know you can, but…”
