Bring Your A Game, Mr novel Chapter 637

Chapter 637 Mate, Do You Have Any Cigarettes?

“Calm down and talk to me slowly. What’s going on?” Elise quickly calmed herself down and started to comfort Danny.

“It’s hard to tell you clearly on the phone. I’m at your university’s gate now. Can we talk in person?”

“Okay, I’ll be there soon.”

The two immediately hung up the phone and she turned off the computer. Then, she found a cap and a mask to wear and left the dormitory thereafter.

It was easy to spot Danny’s car. Elise recognized it as soon as she walked out of the gate.

After she got into the car, he started the engine and drove the car to the airport.

In the meantime, Elise could not wait any longer and asked bluntly, “What’s wrong with Alex? Is he injured?”

“No, don’t worry. He is safe.” Danny was afraid that Elise would be worried, so he hurriedly explained before sighing earnestly, “But it’s hard to tell if he’ll be safe after a while…”

Elise was upset by Danny’s words and yelled, “Stop the car!”

Screech—

The sound of the car braking shot across the sky, and he immediately pulled the car to a stop.

“Stop leaving me guessing and tell me what happened to Alexander!” Elise said in a forceful manner, her tone of voice was almost commanding.

It was the first time that Danny saw Elise lose her temper, and it took him two seconds to react. Then, he shook his head and said, “Isn’t Alex busy developing a new business recently? One of the projects is investing in food and beverage. This morning, a girl visited the main store, but she was suddenly found foaming at the mouth halfway through her meal. After that, she collapsed to the ground. She was sent to the hospital and is still being rescued, but the girl’s family was unhappy and demanded that all stores be closed immediately. There was a lot of fuss about this issue, and it was already circulating on the Internet. Although it did not receive as much attention as the entertainment circle, the popularity of this issue continued to rise since it’s related to people’s livelihood.”

After listening to Danny’s explanation, Elise heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she said thoughtfully, “It should be a food allergy, but the guest also has to bear part of the responsibility for cases like this. So, why did it turn out this way if the Public Relations Department handled the situation well and made up all the compensation that should be given?”

“That is the crux of the matter.” Danny reluctantly took out his phone from his pocket and opened the photo album folder. Then, he handed it to Elise. “There have been several food allergy incidents today and all parties said that they had visited and ate at Alex’s restaurant. Even some said that the food in the restaurant was unhygienic and said that it was food poisoning!”

Poisoning? This isn’t the same nature as allergies. Once convicted, one would have to bear civil liability.

Only then did she realize how much pressure Alexander was facing.

Regardless of Quentin or Austin, both parties had questioned Alexander and the rest for the stringent conditions. In order to meet their requirements, Alexander could have invested most of his financial resources and material resources, so once the news of food poisoning was confirmed, it would destroy the entire franchise.

As she looked at the screenshots of the news, her facial expression gradually turned awful.

After a while, Elise suddenly remembered something and asked in a serious demeanor, “Maybe it’s due to the counteracting of foods? Since it’s a food franchise, there must be a supply of semi-finished products. Is there a problem with the semi-finished products? It’s his first time diving into the food and beverage business; there will inevitably be mistakes.”

Danny shook his head and said, “You know Alex, his plans are always foolproof and he thinks of countermeasures as easy as breathing air. So, there won’t be such a problem.”

“What about the guests? Have you checked them out?” She continued her line of inquiry.

“I’ve done a thorough investigation. The guests’ backgrounds were plain, and I found nothing except the girl who had a mishap in the main store. She was already diagnosed with cancer way before her visit. Initially, she was cured and discharged from the hospital, but after the mishap, she was diagnosed with cancer recurrence. So now, those family members have brought their relatives to surround Alex’s new company to the point that it’s completely packed. Alex is preparing to find someone to be a negotiator and find a way to quell the matter as soon as possible,” Danny explained.

The more Elise listened, the more restless she felt. Such a sudden incident came unannounced and took them by the throat in a second. It’s evident that there’s a strong, malicious intent behind this matter.

At that moment, she thought of the group of schemers hidden in the dark. It seems like they finally can’t hold back and have started taking action once again. I should have thought about it. Even though I can hide my marriage affairs with Alexander from those close to me, I can’t hide it from the people who constantly have their eyes on us all the time.
