Bring Your A Game, Mr novel Chapter 201

Chapter 201 A Tough Problem

Elise looked at Alexander standing in front of her; she found that he was someone familiar yet a stranger. Fortunately, she had worn her mask, so he wasn’t able to identify her.

“What are you waiting for? Get on!” Alexander repeated. Meanwhile, Elise hesitated for a moment before getting on the motorbike. Then, he accelerated, and the bike roared off into the distance.

They sped off in the darkness as she tried her best to support her injured arm. She clenched her teeth hard to stop herself from losing consciousness. He finally stopped the bike when they arrived at a safe location. “We’re safe. You can go now.”

She lowered her eyes and extricated herself from him. “I appreciate this. Thanks for your help. If you need a helping hand in the future, you can find me at Dragonweiss anytime.”

Meanwhile, Alexander carefully scrutinized Elise. He had mainly intended to pop over and enjoy the show, but unexpectedly saw the mighty and valiant boss of Dragonweiss with his own eyes. Truthfully speaking, he was in awe of her courage when she fired the shot earlier. This woman here disguised in a fox mask isn’t one to mess with.

“I’m quite honored to have seen the appearance of the boss of Dragonweiss. That’s worth my trip. As for the rest of it, I’m not one to ask for much.” Alexander glanced at her arm as soon as he finished his sentence. “You’re hurt! You should return home to have that wound attended to as soon as possible. I hope that we’ll be able to be friends with each other the next time we meet.” With that, he pressed the throttle and roared off without a backward glance.

As she tried to comprehend the meaning behind his words, Elise frowned slightly. In the end, the pain shooting from her arm shook her to the present and she didn’t bother to spare another thought to what he said. At that moment itself, she scanned her surroundings and flagged a cab to head to Dragonweiss’ private hospital.

As it was a wound sustained from a gunshot, she didn’t dare to alert anyone else. After experiencing the procedure of having the embedded bullet removed at the said private hospital, she ended up collapsing from the pain.

By the time she had regained consciousness, it was already the morning of the following day.

Elise gradually got up from the bed and noticed that her arm had already been dressed and bandaged up. As she rummaged around and found her phone, it was only at that moment when she noticed there were in fact more than ten missed calls.

At this moment, she came to her senses and immediately returned Alexander’s call.

“Where are you?” Alexander asked.

Meanwhile, Elise glanced at her surroundings and ignored his question as she probed, “Do you need me for anything? Why are you bombarding me with phone calls so early in the morning?”

He had intended to ask her why she had stayed out the whole night last night, but he suddenly pondered, Am I being too controlling? She might feel oppressed by this. He quickly changed his tune and replied, “No, it’s nothing much. I noticed that you weren’t home and was worried about your safety. I can tell now that you’re safe and sound, so it’s all good. I won’t be sending you to school today then.”

She affirmed, “That’s fine with me. I can head to school by myself.”

After Elise hung up the phone, she sighed deeply. In fact, she intensely disliked the feeling of telling a fib, but how on earth was she supposed to reveal her identity to Alexander, though? Furthermore, how am I supposed to explain the gunshot wound on my arm? She felt that it was one of the toughest questions of this century to resolve. I guess I’ll just take it one step at a time.

The moment she left the hospital, she hailed a cab to school. Meanwhile, Alexander’s car was parked in front of the school entrance and as soon as he saw her arriving safely, he was finally at ease. Soon after that, he started his car ignition and slowly drove off.

Jacinda had noticed Alexander and she was just about to head over to greet him, but he didn’t even bother to look at her and immediately drove off.

She was slightly annoyed by his action and followed his gaze to the direction that he had been looking at. Coincidentally, Elise appeared in front of her. How can such an ugly person be able to attract someone like Alexander?! What sort of witchery does she possess?! Looks like Ashlyn’s right; that girl’s a vixen!

“Gosh! Some people can be so full of themselves despite being quite ugly.” As soon as Jacinda entered the classroom, she rudely spoke in front of Elise.

“Jacinda, who are you talking about? Who has offended you this time?” Some of her classmates walked up to her in curiosity and asked with concern.

Jacinda tossed her head haughtily without giving out any names, but she spoke obscurely, “Who else could it be? Who’s the ugliest person with a nasty personality in our class? She’s skillful in seducing guys, so isn’t it quite obvious to everyone?”

Meanwhile, everyone exchanged looks with each other, but no one had any idea who Jacinda was talking about. Nonetheless, their eyes inadvertently turned to Elise. After all, if everyone was to be rated based on their looks, she would be the one ranked last in their class.

At that point, she frowned as she sensed the looks of judgment from the crowd. However, as Jacinda didn’t spill any names, Elise couldn’t quite stand up for herself out of nowhere and ignored Jacinda while she continued to complete her worksheet.
