Bring Your A Game, Mr novel Chapter 549

Chapter 549 What Kind of People Are We?

Hearing that, Elise walked out of the villa to the side of the car and paused all of a sudden after opening the door. As though something just came into her mind, she hesitated, tossed the key in her hand on the passenger seat, and shut the door. Then, she started to walk out of the neighborhood.

In the villa, Kenneth watched as she walked further and further away with a complicated glimmer in his deep-set eyes.

Elise, go ahead and do everything you want bravely. With me to back you up, everything will be alright.

After Elise walked out of the neighborhood, she didn’t catch a cab immediately. Instead, she continued to pace along the street, walking aimlessly. With this rare moment by herself, she had enough time to think about things.

Many things were on her mind, including drawing the snake out of its nest, Alexander, and the Saunders Family. When she had straightened out her mind, she suddenly snapped back to her senses and realized that everything was more or less connected to Kenenth.

Stopping, she finally saw the truth for what it was after a few seconds. Without her realizing, Kenneth had already secretly taken a spot in her heart.

Even though she kept rejecting and avoiding it, it was all futile.

…

After hopping out of the cab, Elise went straight into Alexander’s courtyard house.

Instead of seeing him, she saw Danny, who stopped her in her path.

“Elise!” Pacing toward her, he asked in an irritating manner, “Did that Bailey do anything mean to you?”

“What can he possibly do to me?” Stopping in her tracks, she stared at him deeply. That look in her eyes was clearly frustration from having her thoughts read like a book, but she was unaware about it herself.

Startled by her glare, Danny’s neck stiffened, and he gulped before speaking again. “I’m just worried about you.”

Only then did she notice that she had acted out of the norm, and she lowered her eyes as she said apologetically, “I’m alright.” Then, she asked after a short pause, “Where’s Alex?”

“He’ll be back soon,” he answered. “Why don’t you wait for him inside?”

In reply, Elise gave him a nod and went toward Alexander’s room. Behind her, Danny let out a sigh of relief with a guilty conscience.

In truth, he couldn’t get in touch with Alexander and didn’t know when he would be back. However, he really wanted the both of them to spend some time together, so he decided to tell a small white lie.

In the meantime, Elise pushed open the door to Alexander’s bedroom, and immediately after stepping in, a special scent belonging only to him drifted up her nose. It was a light scent of grass and flowers, which was very comfortable, and for some unknown reason, this scent made her feel really nostalgic, and she was reluctant to leave.

After waiting for a while, she became tired and fell asleep on the bed.

As she had always been a light sleeper, she heard the sounds of light footsteps nearing her during midnight. Even though that person was on his tiptoes and didn’t want to disturb her, she was still awakened by it.

Opening her eyes, she saw Alexander crouching next to the bed, looking at her with affection in his gentle, dark eyes.

“You’re back.” She rolled over, hugged his arm which was next to the pillow, and closed her eyes, continuing to sleep.

A graceful smile spread across Alexander’s face, and he used his other hand to smoothen her messy hair. “Why did you fall asleep here?”

Hearing his voice, she suddenly got up and hugged him around his neck. Like a kitten, she leaned in close to him and acted coquettish in his arms. “I just missed you.”

Alexander’s neck and chin were so tickled by her that his ears burned red in a second, and his heart turned mushy along with it. Then, he sat on the side of the bed and held her up before returning her into his arms in a more comfortable position.

“Were you treated badly at the Saunders, and that made you feel sad?” he asked softly.
