Bring Your A Game, Mr novel Chapter 182

Chapter 182 A Way With Words

Ashlyn felt awkward, but she still bit the bullet and tried to convince Alexander. “We grew up together, Alexander. Even if we can’t be lovers, we can still be friends, right?”

Alexander replied coldly, “Sorry, but I beg to differ.”

With that, Alexander stood up. He had lost the mood for breakfast, so he signaled for the waiter. “Please put these in takeaway containers. Thank you.”

After completing his task, the waiter passed the containers to Alexander. “Here you are, mister.”

Alexander took the containers and left, for he had no intention of talking to Ashlyn. The lady, however, didn’t give up and ran after him. “Alexander, I was foolish and did horrible things. I’m sorry, and I’ve already repented! Please, can you forget the past and pretend that it never happened? Can we still be friends like before?”

 

Alexander was growing more irritated by the second. “Are you out of your mind? You’d better see a doctor and get your delusional tendencies checked.”

Instantly, Ashlyn went pale in the face. Alexander’s words had dragged her harshly out of her ideal state. She thought that if they reached an understanding, they could pretend that the past never happened, then everything would go back to how they were before. However, she totally forgot how filthy her actions were, and she should be embarrassed to approach Alexander out of nowhere.

 

“I’m sorry, I—”

Alexander didn’t have time for her explanations, so he simply got into his car and drove away.

Left behind, Ashlyn was frustrated. Why? Dang it! I don’t get how things turned out this way. We weren’t like this before. He used to be nice and polite to me, though I need to admit that we weren’t particularly close. But hey, he was still alright. His attitude now, though?! Hmph!

He refused to talk to her any more than necessary!

When did the change happen? Ashlyn recalled Elise’s arrival, and she clenched her fists. She seemed to have found the reason. It all happened because of Elise…

“That cunning woman!” Ashlyn shouted. Elise must have done something to cause Alexander to hate me so much.

By now, Ashlyn had completely come to hate Elise, and she swore that she would have her revenge one day.

However, Elise had no idea what happened, for she had just entered the exam hall to prepare for the exams.

There were 4 subjects to be tested in the finals, including languages and Math. After the 2-day finals, the winter break was finally upon them.

After returning to the Griffith Residence, Elise immediately went upstairs. Danny followed suit, and when his bag hit the floor, he was already starting up a game in his room. Even from a distance away, Elise could hear the gaming sounds coming from his room.

Elise shut the door to her room in order to block off the noise, and then she called Laura up. “Grandma, I’ll be going back after 2 days to spend my break with you—”

Before Elise could finish, Laura hastily said, “Ellie, you don’t have to come back. I’m on vacation with your grandpa, and we won’t be back until next year.”

This time, it was Elise’s turn to be stunned. “When did you go? Why didn’t you tell me?”

Promptly, her grandmother responded by saying, “It’s sort of a last-minute decision, so we didn’t inform you beforehand. You can just spend the break in Athesea, all right? You don’t have to come home.”

Hearing that, Elise could only sigh helplessly. “All right, then. Take care out there and come home soon.”
